Another country where * not welcome - Jordan
Jordan Islamists call for Bush to face war crimes trial
(AFP)

26 November 2006


AMMAN - Jordan’s opposition Islamic Action Front (IAF) on Sunday denounced a visit this week to the kingdom by US President George W. Bush and called for him to be put on trial for war crimes.

‘We condemn and reject this visit,’ the IAF said in a statement posted on its Internet website.

‘We call on all human rights organisations in the country and across the world to hold popular trials from the war criminal Bush for his crimes against Arabs, Muslims and humanity at large,’ the statement added. ...

‘This president is a menace to world peace and security and should not be welcomed on any inch of the world, including our wounded country,’ the statement added. ...

5. More negative views of *
the depths of concern about American policies put us on a plane with the real bad guys of the axis of evil

    President Bush's Bad Reputation

    WASHINGTON D.C., Nov. 26, 2006

    (CBS) Just back from Southeast Asia, President George W. Bush will travel to the Middle East this week. But wherever he goes, Bush encounters hostility.

    In Southeast Asia, Bush tried very hard to win over his hosts. He played native instruments, watched native dancers and even tried on native clothes. But Bush's earthy diplomacy conducted mid-munch at the G-8 Summit in July or his unsolicited shoulder rub of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, hasn't played well around the world. From Britain to China, Bush is the "go-it-alone cowboy" to much of the world, leading the United States in the direction he wants, regardless of what anyone else thinks.

    "He is too arrogant about the image of the U.S in the world," a young man in Beijing China told CBS White House correspondent Jim Axelrod.

    The natural extension of this negative view of Bush in the eyes of the world is a negative view of the U.S. That view is not just isolated to the Muslim world, where 30 percent of Indonesians and Egyptians polled had a negative opinion of the U.S., but to 23 percent of people in Spain. Less than 50 percent of those polled in France, Germany, Russia and China had favorable opinions of the U.S.

    Andrew Kohut, who conducts the annual Pew Institute Global Attitudes Survey — a study of anti-Americanism in 16 nations -- says the study shows broad dislike driven by the war on terror. "This sounds very strange to an American ear but when we go out and we question people, the depths of concern about American policies put us on a plane with the real bad guys of the axis of evil," he said. ...
