Occupied Jerusalem: US President George W. Bush is carrying ‘chaotic ideas' with him on his Mideast tour, which is doomed to fail, Syria's government Tishrin newspaper said yesterday.
Bush carries "rotten produce in his pocket to market in the region and [comes] with some chaotic ideas in mind to further support Israel, undermine the Arab forces of resistance, antagonise Arab-Iran relations and justify US-Zionist hegemony," the daily said in an editorial.
"It's unlikely that Bush would achieve any tangible results during his tour of the region that could ... whiten the US administration's black image," said Tishrin.
The most Bush can achieve, it said, is a "deal that can satisfy his arrogance and Israeli greed, as well as continue the policy of intimidation and accusations."
