Do like your President, Hawk: APPLAUD MR Y. ARAFAT! LOL... Bush gives stronger backing for Palestinian state By Reuters - October 12 2001 09:00 news.ft.com Excerpt: Bush said that he hoped Palestinian President Yasser Arafat was making an effort to reduce violence in the Middle East that has killed at least 624 Palestinians and 125 Israelis in the last year and declined to say if he would meet the Palestinian leader. "If I am convinced that a meeting with a particular party at this point in time will further the process, I will do so. If it turns out to be an empty photo opportunity that creates expectations that will become dashed, I won't meet," he said. "I hope progress is being made. I was pleased to see that Mr. Arafat is trying to control the radical elements within the Palestinian Authority. I think the world ought to applaud him for that. "I hope he's taking measures necessary to reduce the violence in the Middle East so that we can get into the Mitchell process. We're working hard on the topic," he added. _______________
