Yesterday, George W. Bush and his lapdog Tony Blair gave a joint press conference in Washington to discuss the crisis in the Middle East and terrorism in general.

They talked about their goal of achieving "a lasting peace." But they obviously have no real interest in peace. The words just happen to sound good, and mask the real agenda.

If they truly want peace, they would support an immediate ceasefire.

They refuse to do so, saying that they instead want to address the root causes of terrorism.

But why can they not do that after first calling for a cease-fire?

Why do more innocent civilian children have to die?

This in itself is proof that Bush and Blair clearly do not give a damn.
