- according to inside: bui unofficial
Iraqi sources.
A highly placed adviser refused
to go into the details of the debrief,
ings but signaled that for the next
few months, no opportunity for a
showdown would be provided by
the Iraqis. He refused to divulge
whether the lengthy sessions with
the air defense units were meant to
make sure nothing happened in the
long-term future as well.
Iraq has been silent on the number
of military deaths since the
cease-fire was announced by Mr.
Saddam. -
Iraqi civilians encountered in
public places. however, have confirmed
that anti-aircraft crews and
radar unit members had been killed -
since the cease-fire.
When the Revolutionary Command
Council announced a ceasefire
on Jan. 19. it said the new
administration would have a grace
period of several months during
which to test Baghdad's intentions
and revise its policies.
_ "If there is any indication that
there will be some movement toward
an improvement," an-official
-said, "then the climate will chan$,e
in the leadership here and there Will
be momentum. It is premature to
judge what will happen now."
Even official Iraqi newspapers
_are preparing the public for patience,
saying the Clinton administration
needs time to devote to its
own domestic agenda. UN inspec-
-tors reiterated Sunday that there
was no hope for lifting sanctions
against Iraq unless it conceded to a
regime of long-term monitQring of
-its weapons of mass destruction.
The official said Iraq did not
object to the principle of long-term
,monitoring of its nuclear capability,
but not under the terms intro-
'duced in UN resolution 715.
