Saudi Newspapers Call On Saddam To Abdicate Or Commit Suicide
LOS ANGELES: The Iraqi regime, symbolized and personified by Saddam Hussein, has in recent weeks come under increasing criticism(1) from the Saudi media. Going beyond the criticism of Saddam and his regime, there are mounting calls on Saddam Hussein by Saudi newspapers to spare the Iraqi people the disasters and destruction of war by abdicating the presidency and seeking asylum outside Iraq. The following are excerpts from such articles: Under the heading “Abdication in Lieu of War,” Ms. Huda al-Husseini, a columnist for the London-based Saudi paper Al-Sharq Al-Awsat, deplores Saddam’s talk of yet another “victorious” war and concludes that Saddam’s resignation is preferable to any war.(2)
“He deserves an award because he initiated two wars, one with Iran and one with the occupation of Kuwait and his subsequent expulsion. Saddam deserves an award because he imagined that the history of Baghdad has started only thirty four years ago, the day he took over power in the country and destroyed Baghdad’s culture… He deserves an award because he caused the flight of Iraq’s writers and scientists and silenced the cry of the Kurds with chemical weapons.” Al-Riyadh, February 9, 2003.
