Renowned German writer Guenter Grass, attacked U.S. president George W. Bush, saying he is a threat to world peace, adding that his actions are based on a disturbed familial atmosphere. In an interview Sunday, December 29, with the German Welt am Sonntag, Grass, who won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1999, said that in the current political situation, the dangerous mix of financial, political and family-related interests have made Bush a truly dangerous politician. Grass, who is a personal friend of German chancellor Schroeder, also said that Bush's personality strikes a resemblance between the new liberalism which the United States presents and the terror which it's fighting against.
"Yasss... There's no difference between the Merkins and the terrorists. It's all the same. Who's to say one's better than the other? In my mind, they're both bad, but the Merkins are worse..." |
