Jerusalem Army, also known as Al Quds Army, (Arabic: جيش القدس), was a paramilitary volunteer force created on 17 February 2001[1] by the Iraqi government to assist the Palestinians to liberate Palestine and Jerusalem from Israel.[2][3][4] The idea came following the eruption of the Palestinian uprising on 28 September 2000. Both men and women could join the Jerusalem Army.[5] Experts said it was intended to be a mass volunteer force, with female as well as male units. It was dissolved pursuant to CPA Order 2, amongst other paramilitary organizations.
