Iraq warns Kuwait, Saudi Arabia: President Saddam Hussein on Monday issued a stern warning against Saudi Arabia and Kuwait to stop provoking Iraq by offering logistical support to the United States and Britain. Saddam accused the Saudi and Kuwaiti governments of pushing the people of Iraq into a confrontation. “ But if things come to a head,” then Iraq knows how to confront them, he said. Addressing a hurriedly con­ vened news conference nearly two hours after Saddam’s comments were carried by the offi­ cial Iraqi News Agency, Information Minister Humam Abdel-Khaliq said Iraq had no inten­ tion to attack Kuwait or Saudi Arabia. “The president’s talk contains no threat and 1 i assure you that we have no intention of taking military action against Kuwait or any other state," he said.
