heroically, really. and that experience is so searing for bush, the experience of being involved in a global war between clear good and clear evil. and so there is a realization that if you can use overwhelming air power, you re going to be able be to not only iraqi military forces but you re going to be able to eviscerate iraq as a functioning 20th century nation. you had 40 plus days of air war. and ultimately we began to run low on targets. president bush praises israel s continued restraint in the face of last night s attack by iraq when seven scud missiles landed on israel. saddam hussein tried his damndest to provoke israel into entering this armed conflict, including sending scud missiles
israel s continued restraint in the face of last night s attack by iraq when seven scud missiles landed on israel. saddam hussein tried his damndest to provoke israel into entering this armed conflict, including sending scud missiles into tel aviv. the remains of a house in tel aviv after this morning s scud missile attacks. eight missiles landed altogether in the haifa and tel aviv central area. there was no warning of them. it was a fairly clever ploy by saddam to split apart the coalition and it took all of the diplomatic wherewithal of the president to keep israel out of the war. the coalition will give saddam hussein until noon saturday. if he doesn t begin moving his forces, the allied coalition is on the verge of invading kuwait and iraq by land. we tried to give him some good advice a few months ago. we told them, move it or lose it. they wouldn t move it, now they will lose it.
