Britons: Bush threat to world peace

Britons: Bush threat to world peaceNov 2 2006

British voters see US President Bush as a greater threat to world peace than either the North Korean leader or the Iranian president, according to a poll.

The international survey by ICM for the Guardian newspaper in Britain and publications and newspapers in Israel, Canada and Mexico, exposes high levels of distrust in US policy.

In Britain 69% of those questioned believed US policy had made the world less safe since 2001, with only 7% thinking action in Iraq and Afghanistan had increased global security.

Results also showed opinion against the Iraq war has hardened strongly since a similar survey before the US presidential election in 2004.

1. Further proof that the Brits . . .
Can tell the difference between shit and shinola, are able to add 2 and 2, and know when to hold onto their wallets.

2. It's a false question, IMO
First, there would have to be a world peace to threaten in the first place

A word about the midterms, I don't want to have to see a repeat of this at my newsstand:

The rest of the sentient world despises you, but just stay in your state of denial and you'll never know reality.

THIS is what george w. bush has done for America. Proud, rightwingnuts?

Neighbors, allies see president as more dangerous than N. Korean leader"

9. Well, Bush has more power over the world at present!
Also Tony doesn't live up Kim Jong Il's rear end, and isn't dragging us all over a cliff for the sake of a 'special relationship' with Kim Jong Il. Not that the latter isn't a danger as well!
