Abstract
The criminal policy on which the Iraqi criminal legislation was built in relation to the phenomenon of revenge is weak and inadequate in dealing with this serious criminal phenomenon. The Iraqi legislator did not deal with it with explicit provisions either in the Penal Code or in the special laws. The position of the Court of Cassation is contradictory, in addition to the statement issued by the Supreme Judicial Council to deal with the phenomenon of tribal A threat in which the courts have ordered the punishment of the perpetrator of this act according to the law of combating terrorism.
