Malaysian ex-PM: Blair and Bush are 'evil murderers'

Former Malaysian leader Mahathir Mohamad has accused British prime minister Tony Blair and US president George Bush of being more evil and worse murderers than Saddam Hussein and the September 11 attackers.

In some of his most blistering insults against the British and US leaders, Mahathir said today their war in Iraq had caused worse terror than al-Qaida’s suicide bombers around the world.
