Bush was like Hitler, says weapons man (RITTER AGAIN)

Scott Ritter, a former United Nations weapons inspector, has compared the invasion of Iraq to Hitler's invasion of Poland.

He told the Berliner Zeitung newspaper that 130 Americans had died "for a lie", adding: "I see no difference between the invasion of Iraq and the invasion of Poland in 1939."

Both invasions were based on what he said was an artificial argument of self defence. President George W Bush had used the September 11 attacks as Hitler used the 1933 burning of the Reichstag to repress domestic dissidents.

Mr Ritter, who resigned as an inspector in 1998 saying Saddam Hussein's regime was hindering his work, said he did not now believe there were weapons of mass destruction in the country.

He called for inspectors to be sent back to obtain confirmation, so that UN sanctions could be lifted.

"The inspectors have to finish their work," he said. "This time they must also have the courage to say that the US has not told the truth."

Can't wait till some little girl father catches him eyeing his little girl.

Do you have any idea how much I'd pay for a chance to sock Ritter square in the face? And I'm *poor*! :-)

BARF.

And I'm sure that the Poles ran up to Hitler's soldiers, hugged them and gave them flowers too eh! Scotty!!

Scott Ritter, your 15 minutes of fame ended loooooong ago.

[Pearls Before Swine]

I think Scott is a bit whacked. Why hasn't he shut up already? He can't still be getting paid now that the Iraqi regime has fallen, and I doubt there's much more to blackmail him about--his "watch me work" fetish is common knowledge now.

[Hildy]

At least Saddam is getting his money's worth.

[VRWC_minion]

He is still on retainer ? If so, who ?

"The United States is going to leave Iraq with its tail between its legs, defeated. It is a war we can not win."

The line forms to the rear.
OTOH he is so Sept 10th.

"I see no difference between the invasion of Iraq and the invasion of Poland in 1939."

What an ass! What a horrible deceitful insult to the memories of the victims of Hitler and Stalin in Poland, 1939 and after.

He told the Berliner Zeitung newspaper that 130 Americans had died "for a lie", adding: "I see no difference between the invasion of Iraq and the invasion of Poland in 1939."

Mr. Ritter, could you step over here, please? I have some members of the Polish Special Forces who would like to discuss that comment with you.

[Mr. Silverback]

Exactly. I doubt the Polish government was putting little kids in prison and practicing interrogation by rape. I also really doubt that Scott will be able to point to 10 million dead Jews, Slavs, Gypsies, Catholics and such when this is all over.

Oh wait, there is one similarity I forgot: France is next. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

"The wheels of justice are starting to turn for George Galloway - it's about time they did for Scott Ritter."

Yes. Wonder if we have to wait until they get around to the U.S. box before we start seeing that?

[veronica]

I think this makes it official. Either Scott Ritter is insane, or he has been paid off again by one of his Arab masters. Either way, if I ruled the world, his US citizenship would be revoked.
