When speaking of the war in Iraq, Bush says, "In the long term, the peace we seek will only be achieved by eliminating the conditions that feed radicalism and ideologies of murder." Showing the improvements of the Palestinian regions, Bush talks about the recent voting in the area, in which many women got the chance to speak out in their government.
