BANGKOK: Muslims in southern Thailand are naming their new-born babies “Saddam” in protest over the United States' invasion of Iraq and in support of its ousted president, a community leader said yesterday.
“We admired Saddam because he was brave enough to fight the world's only superpower and we believe that the war was unjustified,” said Rawsedee Lertariyapongkul, chairman of the Muslim Youth Association of Thailand.
