¤ Taking the Iraq Policy for a Circular Spin
¤ Britain accused of providing Saddam torture instruments
The Government's attempt to present Iraq as a uniquely evil regime turned into a public relations flop yesterday when the Iraqi dissident chosen to present it denounced the threat of war with Saddam Hussein and said Baghdad officials used British-made equipment as instruments of torture.

¤ Iraq Says It Had Aluminum Tubing Before Sanctions
Baghdad said it has had the aluminum tubing since 1989, before the U.N. sanctions imposed for its 1990 invasion of Kuwait, and was using them for the production of artillery shells. "The Iraqis said they tried to import the aluminum tubing, but not for use in nuclear weapons as the U.S. and Britain have alleged," the source close to the inspectors told Reuters.

The administration doesn't simply want to oust Saddam Hussein. It wants to redraw the Mideast map.

PM: We will act against those who intrude into our country
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad said that Malaysia, as a sovereign nation, would never allow anyone or any country to carry out its laws within Malaysian territory. "If they intrude into our country, we will take action according to our own laws to protect our sovereignty and independence. If these people use unmanned aircraft or helicopters and missiles to carry out assassinations against certain targets in our country, we will deem this as an act of war."

U.S. does not need U.N. approval for war
If the United States is not satisfied with Iraq's declaration, it does not need the Security Council's approval to take military action against Saddam Hussein. "Everyone does not have to agree for any member country to take appropriate action," Rumsfeld said.
