The Organization of Women's Freedom in Iraq works with the Worker-communist Party of Iraq.[1]

Activities and views

In a comment piece for the Guardian, Houzan Mahmoud, Organization of Women's Freedom in Iraq's representative, writes of Iraq:

In some places Islamists are even ordering farmers to put shorts on their female goats and sheep. And in certain street markets the display of tomatoes and cucumbers is banned due to their association with genital organs.
The list of terrorist atrocities that the Islamists, both pro- and anti-US, have carried out against the Iraqi people is endless. All this demonstrates the kind of regime change and "democracy" that the US invasion has brought to Iraq.[2]
