Mandala blasts Bush* on war:

African President Nelson Mandela lashed out at
U.S. President George Bush's stance on Iraq on
Thursday, saying the Texan had no foresight and
could not think properly.



"It is a tragedy what is happening, what Bush is

Johannesburg. "What I am condemning is that
one power, with a president who has no
foresight, who cannot think properly, is now

added, to loud applause.

"Both Bush as well as Tony Blair are
undermining an idea (the United Nations) which
was sponsored by their predecessors," Mandela
said. "Is this because the secretary general of
the United Nations (Ghanaian Kofi Annan) is
now a black man?
