On the recordJanuary 25, 1991
I think what he's trying to do is to rally support in some of the countries where he may have some. I think he's trying with the attacks on Israel to divide the coalition and to mount anti-Israel sentiment in parts of the world. What he is doing with--when you dump oil reserves out, unless he's trying to show how tough he will be for Saudi Arabia or something like that, I can't figure out. What he's doing when he brutally parades American prisoners, I can't figure that out either--or British prisoners, or an Italian airman. But it is not a performance that is winning him any points anywhere in my view.
