Good speech..but the news of the day is that Bush asked Israel to end it's mssion, well I guess its time to wrap up the US war too....
Just look at these news headlines:
Bush calls on Israel to stop incursions into PA areas -Haaretz
Bush Calls on Israel to Stop Incursions -Drudge
Bush Urges Israel to End Offensive -AP

U.S. President George W. Bush

Gravitas !

Interesting their choices of headlines. I have read the speech a couple of times now and it is decidedly directed at the Palestinians and the Arabs. I see a serious reprimand and a warning to the Arab nations. He also called Arafat a failure.

Rush is hammering on the Israeli angle too.

Exactly WHEN did the people here start believing the press?????

[sanchmo]

Even though Bush's call to Sharon is a pretty newsworthy part is his message (though it may be a politically calculated one), these headlines miss the central point of the message - that Arafat & the Palestinian terrorist groups, as well as their supporters in Iran & Syria, have been called to task for their duplicity.

Being president often requires diplomatic language. But this seems like a strong message nonetheless.

Somehow, this transcript doesn't sound quite like what I envisioned after reading your thread.

Good speech..but the news of the day is that Bush asked Israel to end it's mission, well I guess its time to wrap up the US war too....

Yes, but at the same time, Powell doesn't get there until next week to get the parties to sign off. Israel could do a lot in the next seven or so days, and then agree to withdraw...

[Rokke]

Hmmmm, those match your bogus headline from the earlier thread you started on the same subject. How does it feel to be as "in touch" as the mainstream media? Especially now that you can read the whole speech.

It kind of makes ya wonder what planet the media creeps are from ? UrAnuS? Perhaps! They don't see that they are the biggest proponents of a continuation of these conflicts. It sells papers and draws in viewers and boosts ratings, No? JMHO...

You can't blame Bush for how the press spins this.

Whatever he said they would put their spin on it.

I liked the part where he called the suicide bombers murderers. Especially after the Muslim nations wouldn't even call them terrorists. Let the press try to spin that one.
