Bush: First PA Reform Must be Dismantling Terrorist Organizations
(White House) President Bush said Saturday in his weekly radio address: "President Abbas declared that his government is committed to chasing down and punishing those responsible for last weekend's terrorist attack in Tel Aviv. Such action is critical, because that attack is a reminder that there are still groups and individuals who will kill to prevent peace in the Middle East....The leaders attending this [London] meeting expressed their support for the Palestinians' efforts to reform their political institutions, their economy, and their security services. And the first reform must be the dismantling of terrorist organizations."
