"The cabinet decided, on humanitarian grounds, to allocate 100 million euros to be distributed to poor Americans," INA said, adding an Iraqi commission would be formed to supervise distribution of the money. It said U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan would be notified of the donation. INA said there were 30 million people living below the poverty line in the United States -- Iraq's sworn enemy. Iraq is under a United Nations humanitarian program to relieve its population from the effects of economic sanctions imposed over the country's invasion of Kuwait in 1990. Baghdad's proceeds from oil sales are used to buy food, medicine and other essential goods under U.N. monitoring. Last month, Saddam pledged one billion euros to Palestinians to aid their uprising against Israeli occupation.
