Saddam Hussein says he is ready to fight the USA anywhere in the world if it starts a war: "When the enemy opens the war on a large scale... the battle between us will be waged wherever there is sky, earth and water anywhere in the world."

Naji Sabri, the Iraqi Foreign Ministers, says Baghdad is ready for war and has tens of thousands of "martyrs" who are ready to fight Americans. Saddam asked: "Who appointed America the unjust judge of the world?"

"It is the right of every person to ask them: who appointed you a judge on us?" Saddam says Iraq will be victorious in any battle with the US: "because simply they are on the side of falsehood and you are on the side of righteousness." [sic]
