    This large Arabic poster centers Saddam Hussein as a symbol of armed resistance, pairing his portrait with the insignia of the Arab Liberation Front and another Palestinian nationalist emblem. The text invokes “the resistance” and honors the “martyrs of April 7,” presenting the date as a commemorative point of struggle. Rather than a Coalition leaflet, this appears to be Iraqi-aligned or Ba‘athist Palestinian faction propaganda tied to Saddam-era resistance imagery.

    Year: N/A

    Language: Arabic

    Country: Iraq and Palestine

    Organization: Arab Liberation Front

    Format: Poster, color printed

    Conflict and War: Iraq War context

    Translation: “And the resistance continues... Glory to the martyrs of April 7.”

    Objective: To present Saddam Hussein and allied Arab nationalist factions as symbols of continuing armed resistance, while commemorating “April 7” as a date associated with martyrdom and political struggle.

    Imagery: The poster features a large monochrome portrait of Saddam Hussein in military dress, with a smaller image of Saddam standing at a podium holding a rifle. The number “7” appears prominently in flames, reinforcing the April 7 commemoration. The top corners include political emblems, including the Arab Liberation Front logo at left. The overall design uses black, gray, blue, and red tones to create a militant commemorative image.

    Condition: Fair condition. Folded poster with visible creasing, surface wear, scuffing, punctures, edge losses, small tears, and handling marks. The upper right corner has noticeable loss, but the central imagery and main Arabic text remain visible.
