Saudi daily strongly criticizes Saddam

The Saudi daily al-Jazira on Friday criticized strongly the Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and described him as that he only learnt "killing even people who are the most kinship links to him."

The paper added that Saddam never kept his promise, noting that prior to his conspiracies against Kuwaiti and the Gulf states he was not that faithful to President Ahmad Hassan al-Baker and that he killed Adnan Kheir Allah, his brother in law who used to share with him money and clothes.

The paper added that Saddam Hussein spared no time in making conspiracies and aggressions against the neighboring and Islamic states, especially against Syria and Jordan, and then his invasion of Iran and in the aftermath his more recent invasion of "the sisterly Arab country of Kuwait."
