Bush: Iraq Attacks Signs of Desperation
2003-10-27
President Bush said Monday that U.S. progress in Iraq is making insurgents more "desperate" and spurring attacks such as the bombings at the international Red Cross headquarters and four police stations across Baghdad that killed dozens of people. "The more progress we make on the ground, the more free the Iraqis become, the more electricity that’s available, the more jobs are available, the more kids that are going to school, the more desperate these killers become," Bush told reporters at the White House. He said those who are continuing to engage in violence "can’t stand the thought of a free society. They hate freedom. They love terror. They love to try to create fear and chaos." But Bush, sitting next to civilian U.S. Iraqi administrator L. Paul Bremer in the Oval Office, said he remains "even more determined to work with the Iraqi people" to restore peace and civility to the wartorn nation. Said Bremer: "We’ll have rough days ... but the overall thrust is in the right direction and the good days outnumber the bad days."
