I am relatively sure, from conversations that I had with former president Bill Clinton, that George Bush seldom called upon him for advice.
I never, never supporting any violence and everybody that know me, and all the countries here they know well that is no one, nowhere that the former prime minister will become terrorist to hurt their own country. No way.
