"Iraq as a team does not want Mr. Bush to use us for the presidential campaign," soccer player Salih Sadir told the website of Sports Illustrated magazine over the weekend, after demanding that U.S. troops get out of Iraq. "He can find another way to advertise himself."
His teammate Ahmed Manajid was equally forceful: "How will [Bush] face his god after having slaughtered so many men and women?" he asked. "He has committed so many crimes."
And after Iraq's defeat of Australia on Saturday, coach Adnan Hamad Majeed criticized Bush for "helping to destroy our country." He said that "we will never believe that Bush is with us."
