American peace activist Cindy Sheehan has described George W. Bush as the worst terrorist on the planet.
Sheehan made her remarks in Istanbul where she attended the Fourth International Meeting for a Warless World, sponsored by the Global Coalition for Peace and Justice (BAK) of Turkey, reported Prensa Latina news agency.
The “peace mom,” who lost her son in Iraq, warned of schemes by the U.S. government to carry out an attack on Iran, which she said was quite possible given the fact that Bush does not care if the majority of U.S. citizens agree or disagree with the plan. The peace activist accused both Democrats and Republicans of supporting Bush's war policies.
Sheehan called Bush a serious danger for world stability and referred to the death of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi children during the years of the embargo and the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003 as an instance of terrorism.
Sheehan apologized on behalf of her nation for all the crimes committed against Iraq and voiced her concern about the growing hatred brewing worldwide against the United States due to Bush policies.
"The American people are not guilty of all the murders, disappearances and tortures committed under the occupation," Sheehan said.
Sheehan told reporters that she will participate in the protest scheduled for March 17 in Washington, as part of a global appeal on the fourth anniversary of the war in Iraq. |
