BBC: Soros calls for 'regime change' in US
Soros calls for 'regime change' in US

Billionaire philanthropist George Soros has called for an end to the Bush administration ahead of next year's presidential elections.

Mr Soros - whose Foundations Network has given $1bn around the world to various causes to help tackle poverty and disease - told BBC Radio 4's United Nations Or Not? programme that the US would only stop pursuing "extremist" policies if there was a change at the White House.

"It is only possible if you have a regime change in the United States - in other words if President Bush is voted out of power.

"I am very hopeful that people will wake up and realise that they have been led down the garden path, that actually 11 September has been hijacked by a bunch of extremists to put into effect policies that they were advocating before such as the invasion of Iraq."

1. Thank you Mr Soros
There is a theme in here that we need to pay attention to: Namely that the PNAC policies were in place long before 9/11 and that the administration is only bastardizing 9/11 for their own agenda.

Compassionate Conservatism was false advertising and nobody but nobody voted for a PNAC America.
