The Gulf War: Month TWO. Cover: Photo by Michel Setboun--Sipa. TOP OF THE WEEK: THE WAR DESERT STORM: ON THE ROPES: Saddam Hussein was in deepening trouble. Under a rain of bombs, the the eventual loss of his Army, his Iraqi dictator was threatened with regime or his life. In what could be the beginning of the end of the gulf war, Saddam finally said the magic word: "withdrawal." Although he indicated he was prepared to get out of Kuwait, he attached so many unacceptable conditions to his peace offer that George Bush rejected it out of hand as "a cruel hoax." Allied forces prepared for what could be a bloody land battle. The air war, meanwhile, claimed hundreds of civilian victims at a Baghdad bomb shelter--or was it a command post?--handing Saddam his biggest victory yet in a propaganda war that has kept pace with the war of bombs and bullets.
