Its official. The Palestinians have told the President Of The United States in not so many words, "F**k you." And we're told they want peace. Yeah right.

[Coop]

If the terrorists are upset, then he done good.

[lavaroise]

Did someone tell them we do not care? It was a conditional position, not some kind of worship and extremist response like theirs.

Anyone catch Alan Keyes last night? He had the PA spokesman, Marwan something on and the guy was beside himself sputtering about how the President had no right to tell the Palestinian people and Arafat what they should do. Of course The Presideent has every right in the world, hell even the responsibility, to tell Sharon what to do...but telling Arafatass what to do is off limits. I loved it...the more angry he became the better I felt.

[onedoug]

Then let's stop talking nonsense and fight this war!

[mhking]

Uh, like we're supposed to care that the Palis are upset? Screw 'em!

[RISU]

They are not the only ones unhappy.

I want the American President to manage "America", and not go out trying to be "President of the World".

Why is the US Government into this "country building" stuff. They haven't got enough problems with their own forest people burning down our country?

[Alouette]

"some points must be clarified".

What part of STOP MURDERING JEWS does he not understand?

[TheEngineer]

Publicly, the Palestinians are trashing Bush over this speech... But I wonder what is being said behind closed doors. Also, I'll bet Arafat is watching his six o'clock very closely. What Bush did was very very smart... We've heard in the news for the past 6 months: "Should the Israelis should assassinate Arafat?". Bush handled this brilliantly, though: "If you get rid of Arafat and adopt a stable democracy, you might get your own country." I give him six months - tops.

[BruceS]

He called on Palestinians to create an accountable, democratic government - something rarely found in the Arab Middle East.

Rare? Name one.

[ppaul]

Bush did not advocate wiping the Jews off the face of the earth and leveling every synagogue in Israel. No wonder the "Palestinians" hate him.
