Peres: Arab World Will Welcome Saddam's Fall
(Independent-UK) - Ben Russell Former Israeli prime minister Shimon Peres told the Institute of Public Policy Research that the fall of Saddam would be welcomed across the Arab world. "I'm convinced that this is the unavoidable way to free the world from terrorism," he said. "The victory of the United States and Great Britain will help to liberate the Muslim world and liberate the Arab world and in some way it will be their victory too." "There is no greater killer in our time than Saddam Hussein," he added. "When Saddam Hussein gassed 100,000 innocent Kurds nobody demonstrated. When he attacked Iran and a million people lost their lives, nobody demonstrated. When he invaded Kuwait, nobody demonstrated."
