Bush on board aircraft carrier

ABOARD THE USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN (AP) - U.S. President George W. Bush, aboard an aircraft carrier steaming home from the war on Iraq, said late Thursday "the United States and our allies have prevailed" against Saddam Hussein and will confront any country tied to terrorists.

"Major combat operations in Iraq have ended," Bush said
from the deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln, which launched thousands of air strikes on Iraq. Bush flew to the carrier on a navy jet and made a screeching stop as his plane was snagged by a cable stretched across the deck. He changed out of his flight suit to address thousands of cheering navy personnel dressed in yellow, green and powder-blue crew shirts and crowded aboard the sun-dappled deck to hear their commander in chief.

"The liberation of Iraq is a crucial advance in the campaign against terror," the president said. "We have removed an ally of al-Qaida and cut off a source of terrorist funding. And this much is certain: No terrorist network will gain weapons of mass destruction from the Iraqi regime because that regime is no more."

Bush sought to give Americans a closure to the fighting while avoiding a sweeping claim of overall victory. He said much still needs to be done, including bringing order to the country, finding weapons of mass destruction, creating a democratic government and pursuing leaders of the fallen regime, including Saddam.

"The battle of Iraq is one victory in a war on terror that began on Sept. 11, 2001, and still goes on," he said.
