Sammy sez ''bring 'em on!''
Iraq said on Sunday it had taken all measures to face a possible U.S. military strike to topple President Saddam Hussein. "Our leadership has prepared everything and our people are determined to resist all attempts against our country," said the speaker of parliament, Saadoun Hammadi. "Our people's morale is high, our financial potentials are good and we are quite certain we will be able to thwart the U.S. aggression," he told reporters after parliament met to discuss preparations for a U.S. military attack. "We shall defend our country in our territory," Iraq's Foreign Minister Naji Sabri said in an interview with CNN on Saturday night. He said Washington wanted U.N. weapons inspectors to return to Iraq "for a sole purpose of updating their military and intelligence information on Iraq to be used in any attack on the Iraqi population."Part of a continuing series of bluster, brought to you by the Government of Iraq...
