Arabic Newspaper Receives Letter Signed by Hussein, AFP Says By Paul Tighe Dubai, April 30 (Bloomberg) -- An Arabic newspaper received a handwritten letter signed by ousted Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein urging the Iraqi people to resist coalition forces, Agence France- Presse reported. The London-based Arabic language al-Quds Al-Arabi newspaper received the letter dated April 28 by fax, AFP cited Abdel Bari Atwan, the newspaper's editor, as saying. The one-page letter refers to betrayals that led to the coalition's victory and a warning to the Iraqi people that U.S.-installed leaders won't bring them freedom, AFP said. The newspaper published a statement yesterday by a group calling itself Iraqi Resistance and Liberation saying Hussein will make a statement to Iraqis within 72 hours, AFP reported at the time. Hussein hasn't been seen since April 9, when Iraqi television broadcast videotape of him in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad. He was targeted by coalition forces in two air attacks, one when the war started on March 20 in Iraq and again on April 7. U.S. forces are carrying out forensic tests at both sites that were bombed. Hussein tops the coalition's list of the 55 most-wanted Iraqi leaders. (AFP, 4-30) quote.bloomberg.com
