Iraqi MP makes opening remarks at anti-terror conference in Herzliya
By Yoav Stern, Haaretz Correspondent
Tags: Iran, Iraq, Israel, ICT

Iraqi parliament member Mithal al-Alousi delivered the opening statements at the Herzliyah Institute for Counter-Terrorism (ICT) Conference Wednesday, in which he called for stronger relations between Iraq and Israel.

Al-Alousi also called for stronger cooperation between Iraq and Israel in fighting terror, and issued a harsh condemnation of Iran, which he accused of meddling in Iraqi affairs.

The Iraqi parliamentarian has spoken at the ICT conference two previous times. His visit in 2004 elicited harsh criticism in Iraq and several attacks were launched against them, including one that left his two sons dead.

Al-Alousi attained German citizenship after he lived there for several years, where he was an activist in the movement of Iraqi dissidents seeking the overthrow of Saddam Hussein. After Hussein's regime fell as a result of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, Al-Alousi returned to his country, and was elected to the parliament in 2005
