The visit of former US President George W. Bush to Switzerland, planned for next Sunday, was canceled because leftists announced demonstrations and humanitarian organizations filed a lawsuit against him because, they believe, he ordered the torture of terrorism suspects. Bush's press representative, David Scherzer, said that the organizer of Bush's visit to Switzerland, "United Israel Appeal" informed Bush about the cancellation of the dinner at which he was supposed to speak on February 12 in a hotel. Scherzer informed the AP agency that "Bush was looking forward to speaking about freedom and memories of his (presidential ) mandate". Opponents of Bush intended to throw shoes at him when he arrived at the hotel, and others announced the filing of criminal charges against him to the Swiss prosecutor for torturing terrorism suspects.
