US President George W. Bush said on Saturday that days of both Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and his loyalists were numbered.

"Village by village, city by city, liberation is coming," Bush said in his weekly radio address.

"As the vise tightens on the Iraqi regime, some of our enemies have chosen to fill their final days with acts of cowardice and murder," he said.

The president vowed that US-led coalition forces would fight on until Saddam and his forces were defeated in Baghdad and the "whole country."

Bush was expected to meet with British Prime Minister Tony Blair next week in Northern Ireland for discussions on a post-war Iraq.
