Saddam Vows to Defend Iraq, Defeat EnemiesPresident Hussein rallied his nation in a scathing speech, saying all enemies will be 'defeated at the gates of Baghdad'
I'll bet the people outside Baghdad were really cheered to hear the news. I think repelling us at the borders would look even more heroic. Ah well, ain't gonna happen anyway. If the US moves, it will go where it pleases. If it holds off or backs down, Saddam may publicly crow, but he and everyone else will know that it's Europe's meddling, not Saddam's strength, that brought the situation to a close.
