Bush out for revenge, says Iraq ambassador

IRAQ'S UN ambassador blasted President George W Bush's speech to the General Assembly yesterday, saying it lacked credibility and was motivated

He chooses to deceive the world and his own people by the longest series of fabrications that have ever been told by a leader of a nation," Ambassador Mohamed al-Douri said.

It was the first Iraqi reaction to Bush's speech, in which the president warned Baghdad to comply with UN resolutions or face the consequences.
