"Jerusalem Report": Israel, US Plan Liquidation of Saddam Hussein

The article, a copy of which came into the possession of the German News Agency, says the plan is to either bomb Saddam, or encourage the opposition in the army to launch a putsch, in which the Iraqi dictator will be killed.

Israel and US army officers are planning to liquidate Saddam Hussein. This will be reported in tomorrow’s issue of the "Jerusalem Report".

The paper says the plan will be activated only if Israel is attacked by Iraq. It includes the use of ‘smart’ bombs that will be targeted specifically on Saddam Hussein.

The article, a copy of which came into the possession of the German News Agency, says the plan is to either bomb Saddam, or encourage the opposition in the army to launch a putsch, in which the Iraqi dictator will be killed.

The article says that both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and opposition leader MK Ehud Barak, agree the liquidation of Saddam is the best way to ensure Israel will not be a target of Iraqi aggression in the future.
