Bush to U.N.: You could be a powerful force for good if you'd only weed out corruption...

[Amerigo Vespucci]

On terrorism, Mr. Bush said that it would be comforting to say that the terrorism threat had decreased. But he said that the “threat has not receded,” and that “the world must continue to confront terrorism.”

He defended the United States’ actions in the war on terrorism and said that attacking terrorists abroad was the best way of combating terrorism.

“Bringing the terrorists to justice does not create terrorism,” he said. “It is the best way to protect” against terrorism.

Mr. Bush, long a critic of the United Nations, also dwelt on its future role and said it could be “a powerful force for good in the world” but said it still needed to be streamlined and corruption weeded out, and he called on other countries to live up to their commitments to make the organization work properly.

“In the 21st century the world needs a confident and effective United Nations,” he said, adding that it was an organization “of extreme potential.” He said that multinational organizations were now "needed more urgently than ever" to combat terrorists and extremists.

In particular, he said countries had to review the work of the Human Rights Council, which he said had “routinely protected violators of human rights.”
