Saadam Hussein honored with statue and ceremony in Palestinian city
2017-10-22
[Times of Israel] The Palestinian city of Qalqilya has named a street after Saddam Hussein and erected a memorial with his likeness, an NGO monitoring Arabic media reported.

The monument was unveiled Wednesday at a ceremony attended by the Qalqilya District Governor Rafi Rawajba and two other Palestinian officials. It bears the slogan "Saddam Hussein ‐ The Master of the Martyrs in Our Age," as well as "Arab Palestine from the River to the Sea," a slogan often used by Hussein that refers to the intended destruction of Israel.

One side of the memorial shows Saddam saluting, while another depicts him holding a gun.

According to the Middle East Media Research Institute, the ceremony during which the monument was revealed included speeches in praise of Hussein.
