Shaath made news on 2005-10-07 by commenting for a BBC documentary that in a 2003 meeting with United States President George W. Bush, Bush told him and other Palestinian officials that Bush was "driven with a mission from God." According to Shaath, the quotation was this: ''"God would tell me, George, go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan. And I did, and then God would tell me, George, go and end the tyranny in Iraq... And I did.'' ''"And now, again, I feel God's words coming to me, Go get the Palestinians their state and get the Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East. And by God I'm gonna do it."'' Shaath later qualified his comments, saying that he and other world leaders at a Jordan summit two years ago "understood that he was illustrating (his comments ) his strong faith and his belief that this is what God wanted." Both the White House and Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas, who was also present at the meeting, denies that Bush ever made such a statement.〔(【引用サイトリンク】White House denies Bush claimed divine inspiration )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】Press Briefing by Scott McClellan )〕 On December 15, 2005 Shaath became Acting Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority after Ahmad Qurei resigned.
