FORMER hostage Terry Waite believes new terrorists are being born through the Iraq war.
Speaking to The Evening Star on the 12th anniversary of his liberation, Suffolk resident Mr Waite hit out at the "totally stupid" policies pursued by George W Bush.
And he said the American president should have rethought his planned visit to Britain this week.
Mr Waite said: "His policies are mistaken. I can understand Tony Blair wanting to maintain the Anglo-American relationship, but I think some statements that have come from America have been totally ridiculous.
"As far as his visit is concerned, if he had any sense he might well have called it off.
"But it could be a good thing for him to see not everyone in Britain supports what is going on in Iraq."
