Morrissey has claimed George Bush and Tony Blair are worse than terrorist bombers, in a scathing rant over the Iraq war. The former Smiths frontman has adopted a typically outspoken stance on the conflict, referring to the suicide attacks across the London transport network in June.
"My view was, how would anyone be remotely surprised? It's an obvious retaliation against Blair's intentions," Morrissey explained. "And you can't refer to these things as being terrorist attacks and yet assume that the actions of Blair and Bush are not terrorism. They're worse than terrorism; they're the actions of egotistical monsters.Bush views Iraq and thinks, 'Well, we will control this country eventually anyway so it doesn't matter how many people we kill.'"
Morrissey releases a new album, "Ringleader Of The Tormentors", on April 3. |
