President Bush gave his weekly... Saturday President's Radio Address just a short time ago.
It goes in part like this... Good morning. This week I returned from Russia, where I met with world leaders at the G8 summit. The summit was an opportunity for important talks with these nations, and it brought progress on key issues. We had wide-ranging discussions on the global economy. We agreed on new steps to strengthen our collective security, including a United Nations Security Council resolution on North Korea. This resolution condemned North Korea's recent missile launches and it urged the North Korean regime to abandon its nuclear programs and return to the six-party talks... Much of our time at the summit was spent discussing the situation in the Middle East, especially the recent violence in Israel and Lebanon. Read the Radio Address in full HERE (Has Audio)

Here’s a good read by TheAge.com.au. It goes in part like this... The US is rushing a delivery of precision-guided bombs to Israel, in a move likely to anger Arab governments and a sign there will be no early end to Israel's bombardment of Lebanon. Click this story out HERE
