On 15 December 2005, more than 10 million Iraqi citizens thronged to the voting pools to elect a new Iraqi Parliament from which a national government will be emanated after long years of the democracy's absence in the former regime of Saddam Husayn This participation confirmed that the Iraqi citizens are ready for democracy, unlike what others circulate that the Iraqi population is far from democracy. This experiment proved the genuineness of Iraqi people and showed their unity between its religious and ethnic components. It was a very obvious message written by all Iraqis to the terrorist powers which came from out side the borders , that they are able to draw the picture of their future by their own hands and by the help of the good , faithful and honest Iraqis, Regardless of religion, nationality or sect. The role of your sons in the security services, such as ours, was to protect the electors from the terrorist operations, to ensure the freedom of elections, and to monitor the lurking people who are against this unique democracy in the Middle East. Within these democratic celebrations, we expect Iraq will be a secure and peaceful country, able to spread the light of democracy, to enlighten the dark corners which this country has struggled through these passed eras, looking forward to a new journey to build and construct our country Iraq. Our service will be the sure hand to protect the new democracy in Iraq, among other security services, and we will be the sleepless eyes to protect all Iraqis, without exception, to serve the expectations of this great population. General Director Of the Iraqi National Intelligence Service
