BERLIN: President Bush reiterated on Tuesday that the United States had no firm plans to attack Iraq but said he would inform European leaders during a visit this week of the “danger” posed by President Saddam Hussein.
“I have no military plans on my desk but I’m looking at all options, closely with our allies... it’s a danger we need to take seriously and we better take it seriously now,” Bush said in a translated interview with German television.
