Statue blown up a day after another 'Saddam tape' emerges
US troops blew up a 30ft statue of Saddam Hussein on horseback today, a day after a new tape apparently from the former Iraqi dictator urged his followers to continue a “holy war” against the Allies.
The recording was sent to two Arabic TV stations on the 35th anniversary of the Baathist coup that brought Saddam’s political party to power.
