Saddam vows to become martyr for Palestine and Iraq
He also urged Arabs to follow his path and used language implying he would become a martyr for the Arab cause.
The letter, published in two Jordanian newspapers, was allegedly delivered through the International Committee of the Red Cross to an old friend now living in Jordan. Those who made it public said the man refused to be identified. It was believed to have been the first letter since Saddam was captured in December 2003 sent to someone other than a family member.
