The criminal confrontation of genocide in Iraqi legislation

Abstract

Abstract: Perhaps the most prominent thing that wars may achieve, in addition to destruction and poverty, is the extermination of a specific human group, and this may lead to the isolation of the state and the complete paralysis of its movement and progress as a result of the destruction of its basic element, which is the human element. Therefore, the need arises seriously for the existence of penal texts that achieve prevention and response, both on the private and public levels, on both levels. International and internal, to ensure the possibility of a sound society based on sound foundations that qualify it to continue as an effective state in its international and regional environment. Since the forms and methods of crimes that achieve genocide are multiple and diverse at the same time, which requires the presence of texts that accommodate the rapid development and are responsible for protecting society from the danger of these crimes, which calls for the necessity of amending some penal texts to confront the new forms of such crimes.
