| Hate Speech
A draft law in Iraq aims to ban all publishing on LGBTQ+ topics, which activists warn could increase hate speech and violence against the community. The bill, signed by 25 MPs from the Shia Coordination Framework, proposes fines for individuals and organizations promoting LGBTQ+ content. Influential cleric Muqtada al-Sadr has called for non-violent opposition to LGBTQ+ individuals, but his statements have been criticized as opportunistic and harmful. The LGBTQ+ community in Iraq faces significant risks, including threats, abduction, and violence, exacerbated by public figures' hate speech.
