Cairoki concert controversy in Baghdad
A picture circulated during Cairoki's concert in Baghdad showing a blend between Saddam Hussein's face and Obama's, which sparked widespread controversy over whether it was an image intended to glorify the former regime or promote its symbols. However, the Iraqi National Security Service clarified that the image was edited, combining the two faces, and that the concert was not stopped nor were the band members dismissed. The authorities' measures were limited to an official inquiry only. The committee emphasized that there is no activity promoting glorification, and that the circulating image is false. The crisis ended after the truth was clarified.
