Bush Declines to Condemn Israeli Attack: "President Bush on Wednesday declined to condemn the deadly attack on Palestinian demonstrators by Israeli military forces, saying he wanted to get clarification of the incident from Israel. The State Department said later it was ``deeply troubled'' by the ``tragic loss of life.''
The president urged Palestinians and Israel for restraint, as the White House and U.S. ambassador asked Israel for an explanation for the attack, which killed at least 10 Palestinians, all children and teens. "
