bush - war criminal, actually printed in a Swedish newspaper!
Just thought you all might like to know whats written about bush in Sweden. This is my quick translation of an article in the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet.
http://aftonbladet.se/vss/nyheter/story/0,2789,724850,00.html

The text under the second photo says:
Diego Maradona fires up the masses against the "war criminal" George W Bush.


Maradona and Chavez in protest against Bush

The soccer legend fired up the masses in a big gathering.
GWB was not welcomed with opened arms when he arrived for the international Summit of the Americas.
This evening, riot police had to use tear gas to disperse the crowd.
The soccer legend Maradona was part of the protest action.
Already days before this weekends summit in Mar del Plata, the country started boiling with unrest, several american owned shops has been closed and rumors have flourished that radical groups where going to protest against Bush and the USA.
Doctors and hospital personnel went on strike to show their disapproval of the presidents visit, and there was vandalism against the hamburger chain Mc Donald’s.

The situation got worse this evening when a group of about 300 masked demonstrators threw rocks close to the hotel where GWB and 33 other members of the US government had gathered. Earlier during the day the soccer legend Diego Maradona arrived and led together with the Bolivian socialist leader Evo Morales the demonstrations against Bush.
Discontent is smoldering in the poor country.

“Fascist manners”
He (Bush) will try to take over Latin America with his fascist manners, demonstrator Mariana said to TT (a Swedish news agency).
The Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez held a speech in front of 30 000 anti-Bush people about the main topic of the meeting: The US wanting free trade between the 34 countries, a proposition that will not pass as long as the US keeps it’s farm subsidies.
Bush also had time to meet with Argentine president Nestor Kirchner – where Bush promised to give the nation support in getting it’s massive debts written off.
