New York, Aug 24: American President George Bush expressed his will to continue battle against "terrorists" everywhere, despite last week's bombing of the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad and the violence in West Asia with Palestinians and Israelis undertaking cyclical attacks.
"The world will not be intimidated. A violent few will
not determine the future of Iraq and there will be no return
to the day of Saddam Hussein's torture chambers and mass
graves," he told Americans in his weekly radio address
yesterday.
On Middle East where the American supported road map for bringing peace has suffered a setback, Bush said, "Murders would not be allowed to decide the future of the region."
"A Palestinian state will never be built on a foundation of violence. The hope of that state and the security of Israel, both depend on an unrelenting campaign against terror waged by all parties in the region," he said.
In the Middle East, Bush added, "true peace" has "deadly enemies". "Yet America will be a consistent friend of every leader who works for peace by actively opposing violence," he said.
Stressing that there will no "flinching" in the war on terror with no retreat, Bush expressed confidence that terrorists, who "had launched war on every nation and on all American citizens" will be defeated.
Bush alleged that the "terrorists" wanted more governments to be like the "Taliban" so they could impose their "totalitarian vision".
Bush also said us forces in Iraq were on the offensive against "terrorists", capturing enemy leaders and weapons, aided by flow of intelligence from Iraqis.
