In its Monday report, Iraqi television showed scenes of Iraqi Mi-24 helicopter air-to-ground missiles as well as armor and infantry attacks, even though Baghdad is under strong pressure from the United States to cooperate with U. N. weapons inspectors or face attack. The United States and Britain reject Iraqi claims to have abandoned all weapons of mass destruction. The report said the maneuvers took place in the Iraqi desert but did not specify where or when. State television also broadcast a meeting between Saddam and Cabinet members. The report said Saddam told the Cabinet that although the weekend protests showed the world opposed an Iraq war, the nation must continue to prepare for conflict with America and Britain.
