Saddam Hails Worldwide Anti-War Demonstrations.
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - President Saddam Hussein hailed worldwide anti-war demonstrations Saturday and said the protests showed that Iraq had international support for standing up to the United States.
Saddam ordered his top officers to look after their soldiers to gain their confidence and make sure they were well-fed and kept warm as they prepared to sacrifice their blood to defend Iraq.
Tens of thousands of people took part in protests across the globe Saturday to demand that Washington abandon likely plans to invade Iraq over alleged weapons of mass destruction.
“They are supporting you because they know that evildoers target Iraq to silence any dissenting voice to their evil and destructive policies,” Saddam told senior military officers and his son Qusay, the commander of the elite Republican Guards.
