U.S. B-52s and F-117 stealth-fighter bombers are now headed to the Persian
Gulf. This comes after an Iraqi missile fired at two U-S jets
patrolling the northern no-fly zone, and an Iraqi fighter penetrated the
enlarged southern no-fly zone. Defense Secretary William Perry had strong
words for Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.
DEFENSE SECRETARY WILLIAM PERRY:IRAQ AIR DEFENSE CREWS ARE PLAYING SOME KIND OF
GAME. THEY WILL SOON LEARN THAT WE ARE NOT PLAYING GAMES. WE HAVE BOTH THE
ABILITY AND THE RESOLVE TO PROTECT OUR INTEREST AND TO PROTECT OUR FLIGHT
CREWS.
The U.S. action also follows reports that Iraq is re-building it's
air-defense system taken out in last week's cruise missile attacks by
attaching new radar systems to surface to air missiles. The two fighters
fired upon were unable to locate the radar site.
PERRY:THE AIR DEFENSE CREWS ONLY HAD THEIR RADARS TURNED ON FOR A FEW
SECONDS. THAT WAS VERY WISE ON THEIR PART BECAUSE IF THEY HAD IT TURNED ON ANY
LONGER THEY WOULD HAVE HAD ANTI-RADIATION MISSILE DOWN THEIR THROATS.
President Clinton, is campaigning out West, also talked tough on Iraq.
DETERMINATION OF THE UNITED STATES IN DEALING WITH THE PROBLEM OF IRAQ SHOULD
NOT BE UNDERESTIMATED.WE WILL DO WHAT WE MUST DO TO PROTECT OUR PEOPLE AND OUR
SOLDIERS.
Bob Dole has suggested the President was too quick last week to
proclaim success... and left the official Dole campaign statement up to
