WASHINGTON, The following are remarks by
President
Bush and Egyptian Ambassador Nabil Fahmy upon signing condolence book:
Egyptian
Embassy
Washington, D. Laura
and I have come to your embassy to express our heart-felt sympathies
for those
who have lost their lives, and our strong determination to stand with the
government
of Egypt and the people of Egypt in rejecting this kind of violence
and terror. EST
THE
PRESIDENT: Thank you all.
Madam Secretary, thanks for having me. (Laughter and applause.
I -- there is no doubt in my mind we will win the war on terror.
One of the stories I like
to share with people is this. My God bless our country. EST
That's why we are working with
President
Musharraf to oppose and isolate the terrorist element in Pakistan. On 9/11, the United
States learned
that problems boiling in a far-off region of the world could lead directly to
a
sudden and murderous attack right here on our own soil. I recognize that the outcome of last month
's election has caused
some to question whether democracy is truly the way toward peace in the Middle
East. We can see it.nazism receptivity
END 11:55 A.D. What the heck are you doing
here? Like
, you're supposed to be -- (laughter. We're facing an ideological struggle, and we're
going to win
. You see, we got to convince
people of the benefits of a free society.
One of the great programs
we've got here in America in terms of people
understanding how we think and how we act is these scholarships
we provide to
our universities. I know this isn't the topic the Secretary assigned me to
talk
about, but it's one I'm going to talk about anyway. But we're
also going to advance America's interests
around the world and defeat this
notion about our -- you know, our bullying concept of freedom by
letting
people see what we're about. There's
no doubt in my mind that Afghanistan will remain
a democracy and serve as an
incredible example. And now, young girls in most of
Afghanistan are
going to school. This requires that we deal with threats
before they fully materialize. And that
is why we are fighting the Saddam remnants and terrorists in Iraq.) Iraqis have shown that they
value their own liberty and are
determined to chart the future of their own country.)
Over
the past four years, other free nations have risen in the broader
Middle East.) America supports
the Lebanese people in their
aspirations for freedom and democracy. That regime is one of the world
's primary state
sponsors of terror. (Applause. (Applause.mosse yosuke
And I said,
great, just so long as
we don't have to compare transcripts.) She's
the Ph. But thank
you for joining your -- together
to make this happen. Thanks for taking time. But I also know people need to be convincing -- convinced
-- I told you
I needed to go to language school.
In order for this country to be able to convince
others, people have got
to be able to see our true worth in our heart. President, I went to Texas
A+M, or I went to Stanford -- like
President Toledo of Peru.
We're going to teach our kids
how to speak important languages. For those of you in education, you might remember this was
a country
that refused to educate young girls. And I want to thank those of you who serve it through higher
education
.)
Supporting political freedom and peaceful change in a troubled part of the
world is a long
-term commitment.)
As Americans, we have faith in democracy, but no illusions.
A functioning
democracy requires institutions that endure beyond a single
vote.
For one thing, it's hard
to claim that you get lasting stability and peace
by denying people a voice in their own government
.) One thing is certain: The United
States will not be a party to the establishment of a Palestinian
state that
sponsors terror and violence. (Applause.) Iranians have endured a generation of repression
at the
hands of a fanatical regime. He's made despicable statements
doubting the crimes of the
Nazis, aligning himself with the rest of the
fantasy-world Holocaust deniers. Of course, this matter
may soon go before the U. Security
Council. And Moammar
Ghadafi of Libya, one of the A.Q.brookes receptivity
I'd like to see this occasion to thank you both, and through you, all of
the American people,
and to reaffirm our determination to continue to pursue
terrorism without equivocation and determination
and resolve. Thank you, sir. EDT
We pray for his recovery. (Laughter.)
She's a heck
of a Secretary of State, though. That makes sense, doesn't it, to have a
language-proficient military
-- to have people that go into the far reaches of
this world and be able to communicate in the villages
and towns and rural
areas and urban centers, to protect the American people.
So our short
-term strategy is to stay on the offense, and we've got to
give our troops, our intelligence officers
, our diplomats all the tools
necessary to succeed. What I'm
trying to suggest to you that this
program is a part of a strategic goal, and
that is to protect this country in the short-term and
protect it in the long-
term by spreading freedom. Our ideology is a heck of a lot more hopeful than
theirs. We're
not saying your democracy has to be like yours. We're just saying give your
people
a chance to live in a free society; give women a chance to live freely;
give young girls a chance
to be educated and realize their full potential. I mean, it is -- it makes it so much easier to
conduct
foreign policy and diplomacy when you've got that common ground of
being able to talk about a university
experience here in the United States. We'll
welcome teachers here to help teach our kids how to speak
languages.
Iraq -- we'll succeed in Iraq. Democracy in the heart of the Middle East is a major
defeat to their
ideology and their ambitions. And that's what's happening. Someday somebody is going
to say -- (applause) -- somebody
someday will say we're able to more likely keep the peace because
this
generation of Americans had confidence in our capacity to work with others to
spread freedom
. And I want to thank those of you who are serving it in
government. And you're doing that. (Applause
.) On the security side,
our forces are hunting down high-value targets like Zarqawi and his
lieutenants
.
In this way, as the President has said, America's ideals and interests are
one and the same:
The survival of liberty in our own land increasingly depends
on the success of liberty in other lands;
the best hope for peace in the world
is the expansion of freedom throughout the world. Hijackers
had been recruited; funds raised; training had taken
place.yosuke defining
Bush.
As you are well aware, we
were the targets of terrorism years ago, as you
were on 9/11.M. I felt certain that the Secretary
of Education would be here.
I appreciate all the Ambassadors who are here. (Laughter.C.
Appreciate you giving me a chance to come by and tell you what's on my
mind. Israel can
count
on the United States of America.. The current President has spoken openly of wiping Israel
off the
map, and of a world without America.) And we join other nations in sending that regime a clear message:
We will not allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon. Al Qaeda was operating training camps
that in
the late '90s turned out thousands of terrorists.yahya sternhell
It was my honor to speak to your President
, President Mubarak, and again
reiterate my country's strong desire to stand shoulder-to-shoulder
with the
people of Egypt and bring justice to those who killed innocent people. University Presidents

U. He
wants his young soldiers who are the front
lines of finding these killers to
be able to speak their language and be able to listen to the people

free.
And so I
'm working with Condi, and she's working with others, to work with
you, to make sure these youngsters
are able to come to our universities.
And it's hard work. Elvis was his favorite singer, for
example. And something happened between 41 going into combat and 43
talking to the Prime Minister
whether it be about troops in Iraq to help this
young democracy flourish in the heart of the Middle
East, or whether it be
dealing with the leader of North Korea who is starving his people to death
,
and how do we solve that? What do we do about it?
And what happened was that the Japanese
adopted a Japanese-style
democracy.M. And America will lead the civilized world to victory.)
We have a strategy of our own in this fight. People who live in freedom are able to choose
their
own destiny, and this gives them real hope for material progress in
their own lives, and a better
future for their children.
That's unfortunately what we have seen for much of the past decade in
the
Palestinian territories -- and we're still living with the legacy of
corruption, broken promises
, abject poverty, the collapse of the rule of law
and, ultimately, the outbreak of a terrorist campaign
on Israel's doorstep. (Applause. And we will continue to act with the kind
of resolve that has
made these past five years a time of progress in the
broader Middle East. Khan network's biggest

spending millions to acquire nuclear weapons.) And the A. The President and I are
grateful for your counsel, for your
commitment to the security of our country, and for all you do
on behalf of
America's friendship with Israel.Fascism is essentially characterized by three themes
(in various forms and proportions): ethnic particularism (national or racial), combined with some sort
of radical economic 'third way' opposed to both Marxist socialism and free-market capitalism, and a
revolutionary, anti-democratic political program.

The people who struck in Sharm el-Sheikh

Bush to the U.S. University Presidents Summit on International Education
There is still an enemy
that lurks, that wants
to hurt us. It's the only way to do it. They put out some kind -- sometimes
put out propaganda that just is -- just isn't right, it isn't fair, and it
doesn't give people
the impression of what we're about. And we will defeat this ideology of
hatred. We've counted on
the skill and the dedication of our
professionals in law enforcement, intelligence, and homeland
security -- and,
of course, on the United States military. They know that as liberty advances, as
men and women
are given a say in the affairs of their country, they turn their creative
gifts
to the pursuits of peace. (Applause. And those who win elections have a
duty to nurture institutions
and laws that serve the peaceful aspirations of
their people. In fact, the denial of
legitimate
means of expressing dissent is one of the causes of extremism in
the Middle East.
Five years
ago, there was a serious problem with proliferation, especially
in the nuclear area. (Applause.
Yet at every point, we will be patient and
resolute -- because the supporters of democracy will
need our help, and the
enemies of democracy will test our will.fates ideology
And they have
an ideology of

And that's one of the reasons why the Secretary of Defense is here. We have defeated fascism

make us proud each and every day.)
Progress
in Iraq has not come easily, but it has been steady.
(Applause.
If the peoples of that region
are given the rights of free men and women,
and live under elected, accountable governments, and
have a chance to work and
succeed in hopeful societies, then the flow of radicalism and hate will
one
day come to an end. (Applause.)
The inquiry into the assassination of former Prime Minister

Nabil Fahmy Upon Signing Condolence Book
S.C. (Laughter. May God bless him.
And I want to
thank Congressman Rush Holt for being here, as well. And that's the truth.
And so the fundamental
question is, how do we win? What do we do? Well, in
the short-term, our strategy is to find them
and bring them to justice before
they hurt us.
We need intelligence officers who, when somebody
says something in Arabic
or Farsi or Urdu knows what they're talking about. In
order to convince
people we care about them, we've got to understand their
culture and show them we care about their
culture. It really is a
fundamental way to reach out to somebody and say, I care about you. But
we
've done, as Condi said, hard work before. And that society, that form of government was able to convert
an
enemy to an ally. I live it when I talk to the
Prime Minister. The terrorists have declared
war on the civilized
world. But we've made tremendous progress against an enemy that
dwells in
the shadows. And going forward, any decisions about troop levels
will be driven by conditions on
the ground and the judgment of our commanders
-- not by artificial timelines set by politicians in
Washington, D. If we simply accept the status quo, that region will be a source of
conflict and
mounting violence for this generation and beyond. The Palestinian government must recognize Israel
's
right to exist. We will not abandon our belief in
democracy. One leader in Lebanon said:
"When I
saw the Iraqi people voting, it was the start of a new Arab world. The Iranian regime needs
to know that if it stays on its present
course, the international community is prepared to impose
meaningful
consequences.Q.fascists zeev

We're living in extraordinary times.
You

no rights. (Laughter. It's a fantastic opportunity to
serve our country. The work is difficult and
very often perilous, and there is
much yet to do. (Applause. For decades, many thought it was worth
tolerating oppression
for the sake of stability in that region. (Applause.
The Hamas candidates
pledged to fight corruption and to improve social
services, and they'll be held to that standard
by the Palestinian people. Freedom's cause is the
right cause, and every action we take in support
of it makes this world better
and safer for our children.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Mr.
Thank you for letting us come by.) Condi said,
come on by, we've got a bunch of university presidents
here. And it's
an important initiative, and I'm going to tell you why in a second. I
see a few
familiar faces, and thanks for serving. I wish I could report to you the war
on terror was over.
I hate to report that to the American people, but my duty is to
lay it out as plainly as I possibly
can. That's what people in this country expect of our
government. We got to have confidence in
that
as we go out. I -- one of my
best buddies in international politics is Prime Minister Koizumi of
Japan. As democracy
advances, ideologies that stir anger and hostility lose their appeal, and
terrorists
lose recruits, safe havens, and sources of funding.
Ladies and gentlemen, one of the basic truths
of the world we live in
today is that George W. America will remain on the side of democratic reformers
, and the
reformers are on the side of history. The secret planning for the attacks of 9/11 was already
well underway. The Taliban regime is now history,
and 25 million Afghans are free.) We have
captured or killed
hundreds of al Qaeda; put its leaders on the run; and closed the camps that
had
trained the killers.) Saddam Hussein wakes up every day in a
jail cell, his sons are dead -- (applause
) -- and Iraqis by the millions have
embraced democracy. (Applause.militarism nazism
) If
you've got room in the
initiative for me, let me know. These
diplomats need to speak that language.
But we need people
in America who can go and say to people, living in
freedom is not the American way of life, it is
a universal way of life. They get to see firsthand the
multicultural society in which we live, all
united under the fabric of
freedom. But it's going to take all the tools at our disposal. There's
no greater gift to give a child than the chance to succeed
and realize his or her dreams.Remarks
by Vice President Cheney to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee 2006 Policy Conference
In the
post-9/11 world, the United States and our allies are determined: we will not
live at
the mercy of terrorists or regimes that could arm them with chemical,
biological, or nuclear weapons
.
The promise of democracy rests ultimately on free elections and the ability of
free peoples to
hold accountable those who govern them -- but that is only the
beginning."
Indeed, the whole
world can see the change, and the rising hope in places
like Lebanon.)
America supports, as
well, the democratic aspirations of the people of
Iran.defining receptivity

State Bob Zoellick, and I want to
thank the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Senator

Arabic, it means they're
interested in somebody else's culture.
Arabic TV does not do our country

whether diplomatic or military -- we will act to protect
the liberty and lives
of our people. And we already know that the work will be
difficult. We
know that
it takes time and effort and patience for democratic values and free
institutions to
take hold, and the greater Middle East has a long way to go.)

because a

AMBASSADOR FAHMY:
Thank you, Mr. I think your presence here, your phone call to the President over
the weekend, and
also the many Americans who have been in touch with our
embassy, and in Cairo, reflect the nature
of the relationship that we have
together, as two countries working hand-in-hand for peace and stability
in the
region, working against terrorism. WASHINGTON, The following is a transcript of
remarks
by President Bush to the U.
3:50 P. And I
want to thank you for being here, Margaret.
But I also find it's interesting
you're sitting next to John Negroponte, who is the Director of National
Intelligence. They expect us to be wise about how we use our resources, and a
good use of resources
is to promote this language initiative in K through 12,
in our universities.
You see, freedom
is the ideology that wins.
And the best way to do that is to have those of us who understand
freedom
be able to communicate in the language of the people we're trying to help. It's a gesture
of interest. It's in our national
interest that we solve visa issues and make sure that -- (applause
.
You can't figure out America when you're looking on some of these TV
stations -- you just
can't -- particularly given the message that they spread. That's what they get to see.
Someday
, an American President is going to sit down and thank this
generation for having the willpower and
the determination to see to it that
democracy has a chance to flourish in a part of the world that
is desperate
for democracy.
(Applause. I believe that's a
faulty argument. If
the leaders
of Hamas desire the help of America and the international
community to build an independent, prosperous
Palestinian state, then the way
forward is very clear.) And Hamas must renounce terror and dismantle
the
infrastructure of terror. Across that region, the political
dialogue has been transformed
-- and politicians, scholars, students, and men
and women from every walk of life are talking about
freedom, equal rights, and
accountable institutions of government.The Syrian
people, the Egyptian
people, all say that something is changing.

Washington
, D. And Don Rumsfeld is a heck
of a Secretary of the Defense, and I want to thank you both for joining
together on this initiative.
You're going to hear a lot about the specifics of the program
. I want you
to know that I'm interested in not only how you talk but how you live. We want young
kids
from around the world coming to our universities. They get to see firsthand that we
don't
discriminate based upon religion. It's
amazing to me. (Applause. First, we are absolutely
determined
to prevent attacks before they occur, and so we are on the
offensive against the terror networks
. Since
the day our country was attacked, we have applied the Bush Doctrine: Any
person or government
that supports, protects, or harbors terrorists is
complicit in the murder of the innocent, and will
be held to account. And our coalition continues to train more Iraqi
forces that are effective, well
trained and well equipped, and prepared to
assume increased responsibility for their country's security
. A short
time ago, the Iraqi people had an appointed government, no popularly elected
legislature
, no permanent constitution and no recent experience with free
national elections. In less than two
years' time they've voted for a
transitional government, drafted a progressive, democratic constitution
in the
heart of the Arab world, then approved the document in a national referendum,
and elected
a new government under its provisions. They argue that, by promoting democratic change, we are actually
destabilizing the region and undermining hopes for peace. They deserve the right to decide their
country's future, and they deserve a President who truly represents them and
who looks to the
future, not to the past.) Iraq's leaders reflect the decency of the
Iraqi people, and no dictator
is taking their money and giving it to the
families of suicide bombers. (Applause.nazism fascists
M. I think you
'll find
this interesting: He has promoted the advanced study of foreign languages
through the
Pat Roberts Intelligence Scholars Program.)
Second, we are determined to deny safe haven to the
terrorists.
It is not hard to see why the terrorists oppose and rage against the rise
of democracy
in Iraq. Some of the hijackers were already in the United States. (Applause. And we will be confident
, because
events are moving in the direction of human liberty.ideology militarism
S. Madam Secretary, it's your building

But first, our nation sends our deepest sympathies
to Ariel Sharon. He's a good
man, a strong man, a man who cared deeply about the security of the
Israeli
people and a man who had a vision for peace. I'm here to let the good folks know
here
how strongly I support the national security language initiative. After all, we're talking about education
. And I'm not talking to them right now directly;
I'm talking through an interpreter on some of these
Arabic TV stations. WASHINGTON, in Jerusalem,
Riyadh, Casablanca, Istanbul, Karachi, Mombassa
, Bali, Jakarta, Najaf,
Baghdad, London and Madrid. But we were only buying time as
problems multiplied
, and demagogues stirred resentment, and the ideologies of
violence took hold. And we will be consistent
. (Applause.M.fascists rejecting
Senator Pat Roberts from Kansas is with us.) We have
been calibrating the proper balance
after September the 11th, and I fully
understand some of your frustrations, particularly when you
say the balance
wasn't actually calibrated well. You bring somebody
here to college, it doesn
't matter what's on TV, they see firsthand the
compassion of the United States of America. I'll
tell
you what's really neat, is to sit down with leaders from around the
world, welcome them in the Oval
Office or go to their office, they say, you
know, Mr. Let them see firsthand the decency of this
country.
He's an interesting person.)
END 4:00 P.)
Third, we are working
to halt the proliferation of weapons of mass
destruction, and to keep those weapons out of the hands
of killers. For decades in the
Middle East, millions of people have known nothing but dictatorship
and heavy-
handed rule -- resulting in misery, bitterness, and the ideologies of
violence. Democracy
requires the protection of minority rights, religious
liberty, equality before the law, freedom of
expression, and an inclusive
society in which every person belongs.
Such duties now belong
to the newly elected government in the Palestinian
territories.
We must make a clean break
with that history of failed policy. We will not abandon our opposition to terrorism. (Applause.
Consider for a moment where we were five years ago, when President Bush
and I took office. In
Iraq, Saddam
Hussein was in power, overseeing, along with his two malevolent sons, one of
the
bloodiest regimes of the 20th century. Q.)
Only days after Saddam was captured, the leader of
Libya announced he
would turn over all of his weapons of mass destruction materials. And, obviously
, they did not just happen.)
Once again, ladies and gentlemen, I appreciate your hospitality this
morning.
Thank you very much.militarism nazism
M. Ambassador, thank you very much for having us. President.
And we continue to work together, resolute, to deal with this
scourge, and ultimately, hopefully
to develop in the Middle East an Egypt that
is prosperous, stable and secure for all. It
says
something about the world we live in.
In other words, this initiative is a broad-gauged initiative
that deals
with the defense of the country, the diplomacy of the country, the
intelligence to
defend our country, and the education of our people. I'm scanning the room. We
need diplomats --
when we send them out to help us convince governments that
we've got to join together and fight these
terrorists who want to destroy life
and promote an ideology that is so backwards it's hard to believe
. Learning a language -- somebody else's
language is a kind gesture. It wasn't an American-style democracy;
it was Japanese-style
democracy. It's a real part of my family's life.)
Fourth, we are determined
to deny the terrorists the control of any
nation, which they would use as a home base and a staging
ground for terrorist
attacks against others. That is why we continue to fight Taliban remnants and
al Qaeda forces in Afghanistan.C. Yet there is no alternative. (Applause.) America is committed
to a sovereign, independent, Lebanon,
dismantling all armed militias, and control by Lebanon's government
over all
of Lebanon's territory. Iranians desire and deserve to be free from tyranny and oppression
in
their own homeland.)
In the months and years ahead, America will continue to support democracy
as the expression of our ideals for the sake of our own security, as well as
for that of our friends
and allies. In
Afghanistan, the Taliban were in power. (Applause. Khan
proliferation network
has been shut down.)
Our great country, which over the decades has aided the rise of new
democracies
in Europe, Asia, and Latin America, now serves that cause in the
Middle East -- with courage, and
firm purpose, and a level of generosity by
the American people not seen since the Marshall Plan.

END 10:43 A.totalitarianism nazism
Thanks for doing that.) The deal was overseas. In other words, we
've got to stay on the offense. We've got to
be unyielding and never give them a, you know, a breath
of fresh air, never
give them a hope that they can succeed. When somebody comes to me
and speaks
Texan, I know they appreciate the Texas culture. They care enough to learn how we speak.) At home and
with
coalition partners abroad, we've broken up terror cells, tracked down
terrorist operatives
, and put heavy pressure on their ability to organize and
plan attacks.)
The President has
put it very well: "Terrorists and terror states do not
reveal these threats with fair notice, in
formal declarations -- and
responding to such enemies only after they have struck first is not self
-
defense, it's suicide." (Applause. (Applause.
For that reason, our strategy for victory
in the war on terror has a fifth
and crucial element: Across the broader Middle East, we will work
to replace
hatred and resentment with democracy and hope. By helping
the peoples of that region
gain the freedom to express their views, to have
open debate, and to choose their own leaders, we
have a better chance of
defeating the radicalism that threatens us all. (Applause. Now that Syrian
troops have left that country, the Syrian
government must stop trying to interfere with the future
of free Lebanon. (Applause. Khan, the man who helped put Pakistan's nuclear
program in place, had
established a network that was providing nuclear weapons
technology to rogue states including North
Korea and Iran.
Today the picture is very different. (Applause.ideological mussolini
