New York - American filmmaker Michael Moore hopes the international release of his documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11, will usher in "regime change" in Australia and Japan.
He is also hoping it will fan freedom of speech in more repressive nations such as China.
Moore said in New York on Wednesday that his polemical movie should encourage people in all those democratic countries that have supported the United States-led war in Iraq to vote their leaders out of office.

Moore announced that he would not be promoting the film overseas, as he wanted to stay in the US and concentrate on his "mission" to see Bush ousted from the White House in November's presidential poll.

He also urged foreign audiences not to link the opinions in the film exclusively to its maker.
"It's not just Michael Moore," he said. "I'm not the only American who feels this way."
