On TV, Saddam takes a deep breath, clamoring and waving his arms, hysterically roaring:
"For a long time, how much injustice have we endured? How many conspiracies? How many blockades, threats and lies from the greedy wolves of the East and West? Do they think that with a few bombs and some hypocritical resolutions, they can make the great Iraqi people kneel? That they can make the lion of Babylon lower its noble head? That they can make us, who carry the bloodline of the Prophet, abandon the sacred right to seek independence, dignity, and revival?
Wishful thinking!
"Today, with ironclad facts and with power enough to shake the universe, we announce to the world: The era where Iraq was at the mercy of others and constantly bullied has gone forever! Our people, our country have undergone a phoenix-like rebirth, under the shelter of True X and the refining of revolutionary will!
We have acquired the atomic bomb!
What does this mean?
