‘They’re Not Warheads, They’re Peaceheads’ By Scott Ott: (2003-01-16) — Saddam Hussein reacted to news that UN weapons inspectors had found 11 chemical warheads today by saying, “They’re not warheads. They’re peaceheads.”

The Iraqi president said he was intending to launch the missiles, tipped with a “mild, mountain spring fragrance” at countries with whom Iraq would like to be at peace–like Israel.

“It was going to be a surprise,” said Mr. Hussein, “But the UN ruined it. Perhaps we have other surprises for our international friends. No peeking.”
