Apparently George “I Don’t Read Newspapers” Bush is still isolated from world events in his Wahington Neocon bubble. Here’s an AP report on his Saturday radio address. Illustrations mine.
Bush vows to defeat ‘small faction’ of Iraqi insurgents
Saturday,April 10,2004,11:05 AM
Crawford, Texas-AP — President Bush says the U-S military and its allies won’t let insurgents win the battle in Iraq.
In today’s weekly radio address, the president said a small faction is trying to seize power as the date nears for Iraqi sovereignty.
Bush says the insurgents want the U-S to falter and delay the turnover of sovereignty — scheduled for June 30th.
But Bush is vowing to take the fight to the enemy.
He says a coalition of forces will fight on many fronts until the enemies are defeated.
Much of the heavy fighting in recent weeks has centered around the city of Fallujah — making it the symbol of resistance for some Iraqis.
Bush says U-S Marines are taking control of the city, block by block.
