The Bush's administration is behaving like an international bully and in fact its military presence is all over the globe. The Bush administration has an abysmal record in international cooperation, and an abysmal record in its internal social and economic policies. Therefore, I wonder if the United States require a regime change more than Iraq needs one.

Osama Bin Laden is alive and he has not been apprehended, Afghanistan has not been liberated from tyranny after it has been bombed to dust, the violence in the Middle East continues to no end, America's friend Saudi Arabia has produced 15 of the 19 September 11 hijackers and has been fingered as the financial source behind the Islamic fundamentalist terrorism, the evil doer North Korea has acknowledged to have nuclear bombs, America's friend Pakistan has been helping North Korea in building its nuclear capabilities, and yet president Bush wants to attack Iraq and have a regime change.

If Bush attack Iraq, which country will be next? And this discourse is not a matter of geopolitics only, what will happen to democracy?

On October 7, 2002 President Bush spoke in Cincinnati about the threat posed by Iraq and his determination to "defending human liberty against violence and aggression." The Institute of Public Accuracy has rebuffed Bush's speech point by point and it has made clear that if there needs to be a regime change it must occur in the United States first.
