Bin Laden determined to strike in US- August 6, 2001 to Sept 11, 2001
Bush to give address Monday on 9/11 anniversary

Fri Sep 8, 2006

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush will deliver a prime-time televised speech on Monday night to mark the fifth anniversary of the September 11 attacks, the White House announced on Friday.

Spokesman Tony Snow said the speech will reflect "what September 11 has meant for our country and where we've been since September 11 and how we move together."

The Oval Office address, estimated to last 16 to 18 minutes, will culminate a series of addresses Bush has delivered to insist that five years after the catastrophic hijacked plane attacks that killed almost 3,000 people, America is safer but still faces a threat from al Qaeda.

"It will not be a political speech. It will not be calls to action by Congress, but instead reflect a date that's burned into all our experiences," Snow said. He said the speech "will have a note of optimism and at the same time sobriety about what we've been through."

how we move together is to quit bringing it up every time a public appearance is made by "dear leader"
