BAGHDAD, Feb 23 (AFP) - President Saddam Hussein received Sunday former US attorney general Ramsey Clark who said he was trying to incite world public opinion against a US-led war.
Clark said his International Action Center was meant to "create a world public opinion against the war that the US administration is threatening to launch on the Iraqi people," the state news agency INA reported.
"Our center believes in the establishment of peace in the world, despite that the drums of war are beating in the United States and Britain," he said.
Saddam hailed Clark's center "for its efforts to strengthen the principles of peace and humanity in the world."
Clark's center fights against US militarism, war and corporate greed and struggles against racism and oppression within the United States, according to the group's website.
Clark met on Saturday with Deputy Prime Minister Tariq Aziz in Baghdad.
The United States has been deploying a massive military buildup in the Gulf, threatening to lead an imminent war against Saddam Hussein whom it accuses of developing weapons of mass destruction.
Are you sure you're not thinking of Clark Clifford and the BCCI scandal?
Clark Clifford is dead. For the moment, only Ramsey Clark's morals and brain are dead.
