Baghdad, Mar 18: The eldest son of Saddam Hussein today rejected a US ultimatum for the Iraqi leader and his sons to go into exile or face war, and said any US forces that invaded Iraq faced a ''bloody battle''.
''The proposal...comes from a person who is not completely capable or fit...The proposal should be that Bush leaves office in America, he and his family,'' Saddam's son Uday said in remarks issued by his office.
''The wives and mothers of those Americans who will fight US will cry blood, not tears,'' he said. ''They should not imagine that they will have a safe spot inside the land of Iraq or outside it.''
