Er zijn nogal wat commentaren verschenen na de toespraak van George Bush die het toch voor een groot deel eens zijn met onze voorbeschouwing van gisteren. Althans die ook de gevaren zien.
Het leek on aardig u enkele commentaren uit de Engelse pers te verstrekken.
“BUSH: I SWEAR IT’S IRAN NEXT, George Bush pledged all-out global war on terrorists and tyrants,” headlines the STAR.
“POMP AND CIRCUMSTANCE, The band played Hail to the Chief. A 21-gun salute sounded. Then, protected by a bullet-proof shield, President George Bush repeated his message to the enemies of democracy,” screams the INDEPENDENT.
The TELEGRAPH slapped: “DEFIANT BUSH DOESN’T MENTION THE WAR, President George W Bush began his second term in unapologetic style yesterday, pledging to maintain his muscular foreign policy and spread freedom “to the darkest corners of the world.”
The TIMES rips: “HIS SECOND-TERM MISSION: TO END TYRANNY ON EARTH, Four years ago he was the Accidental President, scion of a ruling family propelled into the highest office more by genetics and duty than by political zeal and ideological mission.”
The GUARDIAN: “SMILES FOR THE FAMILY, A FIERY WARNING FOR THE WORLD.”
