Bush: Hitler, threat to peace
US President George W. Bush went ballistic when Germany�s Justice Minister Herta Daeubler-Gmelin compared him to Adolf Hitler, the despised leader of the fascist Nazis. Deubler-Gmelin said that Bush�s warmongering against Iraq aims to �divert (the public�s) attention from domestic political problems. Hitler also did that.�
Before this, Jean Chretien, prime minister of US ally Canada, criticized the US� unilateralism and arrogance. In an interview, Chretien linked the terrorist attacks to world poverty and US world economic domination. The US, he said, is also to blame for the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. Chretien added that the US should not use its strength to humiliate others.
In a related development, former South African president and Nobel Peace Prize awardee Nelson Mandela called the US a threat to peace. According to Mandela, the US is undermining the UN as the forum for settling international disputes. He also said that the US� hardline stance against Iraq favors American oil and arms companies.
