BUSH HAS ENORMOUS COURAGE: DOWNER
(our Aussie friends come thru again!)!
From correspondents in Simi Valley, California
May 24, 2007
AUSTRALIAN Foreign Minister Alexander Downer has come to the defence of US President George W. Bush, describing him as “a person of enormous courage”.
Mr Downer’s support came just days after former US President Jimmy Carter described the Bush administration as the “worst in history” for its impact around the world.
Mr Downer, speaking alongside US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, located on the north-west outskirts of Los Angeles, compared Mr Bush’s war on terror to Reagan’s Cold War victory over the Soviet Union.
“When I think about the war on terror and the decisions he has had to make, these have been tough decisions,” Mr Downer told about 300 guests, including Reagan’s widow, Nancy.
“The final judgments about his presidency in relation to some of those decisions will be made years and years off into the future.
“... Will people say of President George W. Bush that he ran away when the terrorists struck?”
“I don’t think they will say that about him either. They will say that he confronted them and showed a lot of courage in doing so.”
Mr Downer will spend today and tomorrow with Dr Rice in California, with a tour of the Camp Pendleton military base, south of LA, and visits to technology sites near San Francisco.

FINISHING TEHRAN
By INVESTOR’S BUSINESS DAILY | Posted Wednesday, May 23, 2007 4:20 PM PT
Middle East: As Iran continues to defy world demands that it halt its illicit nuclear program, a U.S. armada steams just off the Iranian coast. Good thing. Those ships might come in handy real soon.
On Wednesday, the International Atomic Energy Agency issued another report underscoring Iran’s refusal to halt a uranium-enrichment program that all evidence suggests will lead to the manufacturing of nuclear weapons.
Unfortunately, this is par for the course. On March 24, the U.N. Security Council imposed a 60-day deadline for Iran to stop its enrichment activities. This is the second time Iran has let a U.N. deadline come and go.
Tired of the game, the U.S. now seems to be trying to send a message — perhaps not just to Iran, but to the rest of the world as well. That message is: Get serious, or we’ll get serious for you.
