The Iraqi leadership issued a statement following a meeting chaired by President Saddam Hussein on Thursday, urging the Iraqi people and armed forces to divide the US-led coalition forces and destroy them completely.
The meeting discussed preparations taken by Iraq to confront the "savage and barbarian attacks by the enemy" and "the necessary measures" taken to destroy them, the brief statement said.
The statement called on the Iraqi people and armed forces to "exploit the enemy's spread-out in different parts of Iraq, divide the enemy troops into pieces and attack the front and rear so as to destroy them completely."
