Iraq gloats at wave of peace marches
Iraq gloated over the global outpouring of opposition to the US threat of attack today, saying anti-war demonstrations in dozens of countries signalled an Iraqi victory and “the defeat and isolation of America”.
Iraq’s tightly controlled news media gave prominent coverage to anti-war demonstrations staged around the world yesterday. Iraqi television showed footage of millions marching in the world’s cities under the logo ”International Day of Confronting the Aggression”.
