Saddam HusseinDoes [America] realize the meaning of every Iraqi becoming a missile that can cross to countries and cities?
Saddam HusseinGreat Iraqi men and women, members of the families of the martyrs, You have offered the homeland the best thing you could afford. Thus you have come to merit love and gratitude from all Iraqis and from its plains, mountains, skies and waters. You are good sons of this country. You have offered to the country great men who have averted harm from the country and paved its way to glory and greatness.
