George W. Bush: “The United States is pleased to host more than 30 nations at the Earth Observation Summit.”

To you and the honored dead, our country is forever grateful.

Today, we remember your loss, we share your sorrow and we honor the men and women that you have loved so long and so well.

I hereby find that the furnishing of defense articles and defense services to the Southern African Development Community will strengthen the security of the United States and promote world peace.

You will have an Almighty God to comfort you.
