German Official Compares Bush on Iraq to Hitler

The following is an excerpt from the article:

BERLIN, Sept. 19 --
" Chancellor Gerhard
Schroeder's justice
minister said yesterday
that President Bush's
"method" of pressuring Iraq
was similar to tactics
employed by Adolf Hitler
because both sought to
divert attention from
domestic problems,
according to a German
newspaper.


The minister, Herta
Daeubler-Gmelin, was also
quoted as saying that the
United States "has a lousy
legal system" and that
"Bush would be sitting in
prison today" if current
U.S. laws against insider
trading had been on the
books when he worked in
the oil industry in Texas."
