holy war on U.S.
Iraqi President Saddam Hussein
urged Arabs Wednesday to rise up
in a holy war against the West and
former allies who have turned
against him, and he claimed that in
ternational trade sanctions are kill
ing Iraqi children.
Western women and children de
tained in Kuwait and Iraq continued
to trickle out in small groups, but
they left behind hundreds who await
g ermission to leave. Iraq, which has
een criticized for blocking the re
leases with red tape, said it was doing
everything it could to expedite de
partures.
Japan and the Soviet Union asked
Iraq on Wednesday to withdraw at
once from Kuwait, which it invaded
Aug. 2, and free all foreigners held
in Iraq and Kuwait. A joint
statement issued in Tokyo by For
eign Minister Taro Nakayama and
visiting Soviet Foreign Minister Edu
ard Shevardnadze was the first ever
by the two nations on an interna
tional issue, Foreign Ministry offi
cials there said.
As a multinational armada in the
f ulf grew, U.S. Army officials in
audi Arabia said the military was
using night convoys to move heavy
firepower — including ground-to-
air missiles and rocket launchers —
into the northern Saudi desert.
Although Washington says its
troops are deployed to defend the
Saudis, the recent moves increase
the offensive capabilities of U.S.
forces.
President Bush indicated
Wednesday the United States has
not ruled out an offensive role, tell
ing lawmakers back from the gulf
that if sanctions do not succeed, “we
will review our options.”
In the Gulf of Oman, U.S. forces
released an Iraqi-flagged freighter

North Korea demanded

day.
During the historic meeting be
tween the prime ministers of
North and South Korea, the
North also demanded that South
Korea stop efforts to enter the :
Unimd Nations separately, saying
: “No prime ministers' talks
without release of unification

at Seoul National University,
“U.S, troops, get out!” they chan-
that to do so would perpetuate
“We view these as very urgent,
very serious matters ... directly
connected with the future fate of
this conference,” North Korean
Premier Yon Hyong Muk said.
Yon stopped short of calling
the demands a precondition for
future talks, hut he indicated
North Korea might stall

"This time, responsible authori
ties have made proposals. From
this point on, South Korea can
consider North Korean proposals
in earnest.*’
As Wednesday’s meeting was
under way, about 1,000 radical
students marched through Seoul,
shouting anti-U.S., anti-govern

Riot police fired tea» gas to
block the students from marching
off campus. Several students and

udenrs were arrested.
In addition, eight radicals were
arrested for staging illegal dem

where the prime ministers were
meeting,
A North Korean television
cameraman trying to film the
scene was roughed up by riot po
lice trying to stop him. He was not
injured.
: The radical students, a small
but vocal minority in South Ko
rea, oppose the presence of the
43,000 U.S. troops in their coun
try, saying it hinders chances for
unification of North and South
Korea, The Americans are here
under a mutual defense pact with
South Korea,
South Korean officials said the
..demands made by North Korea
were internal matters hut that
some might be discussed further
at a closed North-South session.

tions, bitterly divided since 1945,
have never offkialiy recognized
each other.
