Saddam will be disarmed: Bush

By Sridhar Krishnaswami

UNITED NATIONS. FEB. 15. The United States President, George W. Bush, had some strong words for the Iraqi President, Saddam Hussein, while visiting the headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Investigation today.

"This war requires us to understand that terror is broader than one international network; that these terrorist networks have got some connections; in some cases, to countries run by outlawed dictators," he said.

"And that's the issue with Iraq. When I speak about the war on terror, I not only talk about the Al-Qaeda, I talk about Iraq. Because, after all, Saddam Hussein has got weapons of mass destruction and he's used them. Saddam Hussein is used to deceiving the world and continues to do so.

``Saddam Hussein has got ties with terrorist networks. Saddam Hussein is a danger and that's why he'll be disarmed, one way or the other," Mr. Bush said.
