Mohammed Bashar al-Faidi

Muhammad Bashar al-Faidi is the spokesman for Harith Sulayman al-Dhari, the chairman of the Association of Muslim Scholars.

On November 16, 2006, the interior minister of Iraq, Jawad al-Bolani, a Shi'ite, announced that Dhari was wanted on a charge of inciting violence. "The government's policy is that anyone who tries to spread division and strife among the Iraq people will be chased by our security agencies." Muhammad replied on Al Jazeera television and stated, "The decisions of this government are worthless because it only rules the Green Zone."
