Bush says he unwittingly 'stirs up anxiety' in Muslim world



BERLIN, May 8, 2006 (AFP) - US President George W. Bush said in an interview with a German newspaper on Monday that he unwittingly caused fears in the Muslim world.

"We must understand words mean things to different people," Bush said in Bild, according to an English transcript released by the White House. "Sometimes my own messages send signals that I don't mean to send, but stirs up anxieties in the Muslim world. "There needs to be more understanding between the Muslim world and the Western world. There needs to be a better understanding of the true beliefs of their respective religions."

Bush said however that he was convinced that most people in the world shared common, peaceful values.

"I take great comfort in knowing that the true Muslim -- Islam, itself, is a peaceful religion, and those who adhere to Islam are people that respect the rights of others. "And there's common values in the great religions. And what we cannot allow to happen is for these totalitarians, these Islamic extremists to distort a great religion and define the nature of that religion."

5. I Think He's Doing It On Purpose
He WANTS to inflame the Islamic world so they attack us.
That would give him the excuse he is looking for to widen the war.
He SAYS he considers it to be World War III. He intends to make it so!

HE MUST BE IMPEACHED NOW!!!
Surely even the Republicans can see that.

8. Either observation is probably true. Stupidity or On Purpose.
Since he said it was unwitting that was probably a lie. So he did it on purpose.

7. more and more I think of him as nothing more than a bungler
No evil strategies, no master plan, no fake stupidity--it's real. He was a small-time weak governor who shouldn't even have gotten that gig--but then traded on his name to get where he is today. He's just a dreamer wishing the world would be as he thinks it should be.

10. I think he was thinking of the "Stairway to Heaven" lyrics
"and you know, sometimes words have two meanings", and lost it when he tried to translate them into bu$hese and then back into English.
