"I think that those pictures hit us the same way as the terrorist attack itself," Soros continued, "not quite with the same force, because in the terrorist attack, we were the victims. In the pictures, we were the perpetrators and others were the victims."

"But there is, I'm afraid," he said, "a direct connection between those two events, because the way President Bush conducted the war on terror converted us from victims into perpetrators."

Bush 'converted us from victims into perpetrators'

Bush’s war on terrorism has turned Americans “from victims to perpetrator,” he said to loud applause from the “Take Back America” audience, organized by the leftist group Campaign for America’s Future.

“It’s really quite an atrocious proposition,” Soros said, pointing to the importance of the presidential election in November. “This is not a normal election; it’s a referendum on the Bush administration, the Bush Doctrine and the doctrine’s first application, the invasion of Iraq.”

“And what I find most galling is the final argument of justification that we went for the sake of the Iraqi people.”

“I’m convinced there will be a change of regime,” Soros said with faint enthusiasm. “The public realizes it has been misled …we will reject the Bush Doctrine.”

"President Bush is pushing the wrong buttons when he says, 'Those who are not with us, are against us,' " Soros said. "This is an imperialist vision in which the U.S. leads and the rest of the world follows."

"It is only possible if you have a regime change in the United States - in other words if President Bush is voted out of power. "I am very hopeful that people will wake up and realise that they have been led down the garden path, that actually 11 September has been hijacked by a bunch of extremists to put into effect policies that they were advocating before such as the invasion of Iraq."

Soros Leads Liberal Fund to Defeat Bush

Financier George Soros, who you'll recall helped douse the U.S. economy after Sept. 11, has joined with some other "philanthropists" and unions in funding an effort to defeat George W. Bush in 2004. The organization they're forming will be called Americans Coming Together, or ACT, and it hopes to spend $75 million, $30 million of which it already has, according to the Washington Post, with $10 million from Soros, $12 million from six other people, and about $8 million from unions, including the Service Employees International Union. And why has Soros, the billionaire Clinton supporter and man who bet heavily against America, decided all of a sudden that he has America's best interests at heart? Soros said: "I believe deeply in the values of an open society. For the past 15 years I have focused my energies on fighting for these values abroad. Now I am doing it in the United States. The fate of the world depends on the United States, and President Bush is leading us in the wrong direction."
