The plot included the intention to smuggle at least four Iraqi nationals into the country to kill Bush, federal authorities allege.
An Iraqi man accused by U.S. authorities of plotting to assassinate former President George W. Bush for initiating the Iraq War asked on Tuesday for a different judge who was not appointed by Bush.
“There are no Reagan judges,” Watson said in court. “There are no George W. Bush judges. There are no Obama judges. There are no Clinton judges. There are no Trump judges. There are just judges on this court. We have the finest judicial system in existence.” At the short hearing on Tuesday, Chaney said he has had more time to speak with Shihab, and his client would like Watson to recuse himself before proceeding.
If Shihab pleads guilty, he will admit to the charging document, which states he told an informant he was part of a group overseas seeking to assassinate Bush and that his role in the plot was to conduct surveillance on Bush's residences and offices and to obtain firearms and vehicles.
