From the Toronto Star:
Foreign Secretary Jack Straw said people were entitled to demonstrate, but questioned why those who planned to march against Bush had not protested Saddam Hussein's regime."What bothers me is the fashionable anti-Americanism that's around," he told British Broadcasting Corp. radio.
"Many more people, I guess, will be demonstrating about the United States and the action which the United States has had to take since Sept. 11 than ever demonstrated against the brutal, vicious, horrible regime of Saddam Hussein.''
Mr Straw went on to say how appalled he was by the hypocrisy of 'liberal' Americans who were thinking of voting against President Bush next year: 'Many of these so-called "people" will be casting votes against President Bush while having never once voted against the brutal, vicious, horrible tyrant Saddam Hussein.'*
