In this episode we will listen in on two addresses by President George H. W. Bush. One is to a joint session of the United States Congress as he reports back to the nation the situation in the Persian Gulf. He will also address the growing issues of division at home on the Federal Budget.
We will listen in on the growing size of the military force then building up in the Persian Gulf region as the World prepares itself for war.
It is from this backdrop that an offer from Saddam Hussein comes in to allow President Bush to speak to the Iraqi people. We will end this episode letting you hear that address in its entirety.
