Arabs demand withdrawal of U.S. and British troops from Iraq Arab league calls attack 'a violation of the UN Charter' Associated Press CAIRO (AP) -- After a meeting marred by deep divisions, the Arab League called Monday for the United States and Britain to withdraw their troops from Iraq immediately and without conditions. The U.S.-British attack on Iraq was "a violation of the UN Charter" and a "threat to world peace," the 22-member League said in a final resolution. Kuwait objected to the resolution because it omitted any reference to the 10 Iraqi missiles that have landed on its soil since the conflict began last week. While several representatives chose their words carefully during the four hour session -- their territories are hosting U.S. forces -- the chief Libyan delegate won sustained applause when he hailed the "Iraqi heroism" in the battle against American and British troops. "We have to raise our heads high and salute Iraqi heroism as proof that Arab individuals are capable of confronting the mighty, the coercive and the arrogant," Ali al-Treiki said, referring to U.S.-led forces. Opening the session, al-Treiki warned the delegates that "if Iraq is to fall, many Arab countries will fall as well." canada.com
