Quote:
BBC's three part documentary reveals that President George W. Bush has said that God adviced him to occupie Iraq and Afganistan.

Details of a documetary about Bush's "back up" among others were released to the public on thursday. In the documetary Bush was talking to the palestenian leader Mahmud Abbas and the Minister of foreign affairs (of that time) Nabil Shaath in june 2003 about his mission.

Bush also said that God had adviced him to constitute a Palestenian state, the palestenian leaders mention on the documentary.

- President Bush said to all of us: I am guided by a mission from God. God is telling me: George go and fight the terrorists in Afganistan.

-And I did that and then God told me: George go and stop the tyranny in Iraq -- And I did.

According to BBC's representative the content of the documentary has been related to the White House, but they've refused to comment on private conversations.

The documentary will be aired in the UK on october 10., 17. and 24.

Papers in the Arabic world recoil at remarks attributed to President Bush by a Palestinian official, to the effect that God had told him to invade Iraq.

The White House denied the alleged comments were ever made, and Nabil Shaath, the Palestinian official who said the president had told him he was "driven with a mission from God", later said he never thought that Mr Bush's remarks should be taken literally.

Other papers in the region comment on Mr Bush's assertion, at a speech in Washington, that Islamic radicals were seeking to establish an empire of terror from Spain to Indonesia. Editorial in pan-Arab Al-Quds Al-Arabi

US President Bush told his Palestinian guests that he was driven with a mission from God... Had those statements come from an ordinary person, he would have been arrested straight away and taken to a lunatic asylum for treatment... Such statements cannot be made by someone who is mentally sound.


Editorial in Saudi Arabia's Al-Jazirah

The statements attributed to US President Bush on God's message to fight terrorists in Afghanistan and end the tyranny in Iraq... indicate that America is striving to practise a series of firm ideological principles, even if this is a major source of detriment to US interests and the interests of the Middle East... The fallacy of Bush's ideology lies in the fact that Bush thinks it is America's right to decide people's fate.


Editorial in Egypt's Al-Ahram

US President Bush has warned of "a radical Islamic empire that spans from Spain to Indonesia"... This is simply a preposterous statement... It is illogical to rely on the views of small radical groups that have neither weight nor influence to create such a phantom called "radical Islamic empire".


Editorial in Saudi Arabia's Al-Watan

Bush might have been right about the expansion of the base of the terrorist network to span from Spain to Indonesia. This corresponds with reality and the statements of the Indonesian investigator about indications the Bali bombers belonged to a new generation of terrorists. After four years of war on terrorism and two consecutive wars that Bush dragged the world into, here we are reaping the benefits of these efforts represented in a new generation of terrorists.


Commentary by Farah Maamar in Algeria's Le Soir d'Algerie

Bush has just discovered "Islamist imperialism"! All the same, this awakening is late, all the more so since it has been more than a dozen years that Algeria has been struggling all alone against "the bogeyman" that is now being waved about by the White House!... Bin Ladin-style imperialism, we've experienced it!
