Saddam Hussein’s envoy visit to Egypt postponed
A source close to the Egyptian Presidency said that the visit of member of the revolution's leadership council in Iraqi Ali Hassan al-Majuid to Egypt, delegated by President Saddam Hussein was postponed to a later date. The source did not explain the reasons behind the postponement. Al-Majuid, one of Saddam's cousins, was expected to arrive in Egypt on Saturday.
Not coming, is he?
For his part, the Egyptian foreign minister Ahmad Maher indicated that "the issue of the visit of an Iraqi envoy to Cairo, debated by press reports is now postponed ." However, a source close to the Egyptian Presidency stressed on Wednesday that the Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak will be meeting with a special envoy for the Iraqi President Saddam Hussein on Saturday in the context of the increased Arab diplomatic activities in order to avoid a likely war against Iraq.
An Egyptian media source said recently that the Iraqi envoy is Ali Hassan al-Majuid, he is a cousin for the Iraqi president and a member at the revolution's leadership council in Iraq.
You don't suppose that all those Arab proposals urging Saddam to go into exile or supporting a coup attempt had anything to do with him not paying you a visit, do you?
