Horrific sectarian atrocities are being committed in the final push to "liberate" the ancient city of Fallujah, 43 miles from Baghdad. Iranian-led Shi'ite militias who form the main part of the force fighting to re-capture the city from the Islamic State, also known as Daesh, are systematically arresting Sunni men and women fleeing the besieged city.

The Shi'ite militias are financed and led by the Iranian terrorist Qods Force, whose senior commander Gen. Qasem Soleimani is on the EU and U.S. terrorist lists. Soleimani is spearheading the attack on Fallujah. His presence was confirmed in an astonishing statement by Iraq's Foreign Minister Ibrahim Jafari on Tuesday, when he said: "Qasem Soleimani provides military advice on Iraqi soil and this is with the complete awareness of our government."
Iran is exploiting their role in ousting IS as a means for implementing their genocidal policy of ethnic cleansing to annihilate the Sunnis in Iraq's al-Anbar Province. They claim that they have to detain all people fleeing from the city in case some of them may be IS jihadists. But this is simply an excuse to perpetrate barbaric atrocities on innocent Sunnis.
