Former U.N. weapons inspector Scott Ritter compared the United States' war in Iraq to Adolf Hitler's action in Poland.
BERLIN - "I see no difference between the invasion of Iraq and the and the invasion of Poland by Hitler in 1939," Ritter told the Berliner Zeitung. Hitler had used self-defense as an excuse to send his troops in, and U.S. President George W. Bush had done exactly the same thing in 2003. "It was the same lie," Ritter was quoted as saying.
According to Ritter, Bush has manipulated the September 11 terrorist attacks on America to his advantage, in the same way that Hitler used the burning of the Reichstag. In Ritter's view, Iraq has no weapons of mass destruction, making the basis of the war invalid.
