EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures a pivotal moment in Iraqi history as Prime Minister Abdul Karim Qasem, dressed in military uniform, addresses the cheering crowds from the roof of the Defence Ministry in Baghdad on 9th March 1959. The uprising in Northern Iraq, centered around Mosul, was in full swing, and reports of the Iraqi Air Force bombing the city had reached the capital. Amidst the chaos and uncertainty, Kassem, a popular and charismatic figure, emerged as a unifying force for the Iraqi people. His bold and defiant stance against the use of military force against his own citizens resonated deeply with the crowds, who saw him as a symbol of hope and change. Despite the danger and potential repercussions, Kassem chose to connect with his people directly, demonstrating his commitment to their cause and his determination to lead Iraq through this tumultuous period. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of leadership and the indomitable spirit of the people during times of upheaval.
