Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister Tareq Aziz urged other Arab countries on Wednesday to oppose US threats of military action against his government, warning they could be next.  

 

"The Arab nation should show solidarity with Iraq because US threats are the same everywhere -- it may be Iraq today, but tomorrow they may use different pretexts to target other countries," Aziz told Iraq's state-run satellite television, cited by AFP. "That's why you have to put up a joint front against these threats." (Albawaba.com)
