Bush denies charges that arose at the time that he had given a "green light" for Israel to attack the installation.
"Prime Minister Olmert hadn't asked for a green light and I hadn't given one. He had done what he believed was necessary to protect Israel," Bush says in the book.

All this other talk is a effen wast of time and energy.
Any one in their right mind knows where this will eventually lead. And it will not be pretty.
Israel does not exist to demonstrate the olive branch and the white dove.
They exist by the sword.
George Galloway's description of them as a 'gangster state' is le mot juste. As I recall you saw on the clip I posted of his excellent contribution on Al Jazeera.
