                    ELSEWHERE IN THE REGION, PRO-SADDAM DEMONSTRATIONS

           REMAIN SMALL AND SPORADIC, EXCEPT IN LIBYA, WHERE THE GOVERNMENT

           ORGANIZED A MAJOR DEMONSTRATION THIS WEEKEND LED BY COLONEL


               'AFI.
          @)'SADDAM SHOWS NO INTEREST IN A CEASE-FIRE ON THE BASIS OF AN
           EVENTUAL IRAQI WITHDRAWAL FROM KUWAIT. HE REJECTED A SOVIET

           OFFER TO PRESS FOR A CEASE-FIRE IN EXCHANGE FOR A PROMISE TO


           WITHDRAW FROM KUWAIT.




                                                         THERE IS NO

           INDICATION THAT IRAQ IS BEHIND ANY OF THE CEASE-FIRE EFFORTS

           WHICH ARE BEING PROMOTED BY THE PLO, ALGERIA, YUGOSLAVIA, AND

           INDIA. THESE SEEM TO BE SIMPLY AN ATTEMPT TO STOP THE FIGHTING

           AND RESTART DIPLOMACY, BUT WE EXPECT SUCH EFFORTS TO INTENSIFY AS

           THE CONFLICT CONTINUES.
