Bush warns Taliban as US demands Qaeda handover
President Bush, flanked by congressional leaders, warned Afghanistan's Taliban that sponsoring terrorists will bring consequences for the Sept 11 attacks unless they turn over al Qaeda and dismantle camps. He said there are no negotiations or timetable, and vowed to act on the nation's time while reopening Reagan National Airport with heightened security. He advocated tax cuts, job training, health and unemployment benefits, and supported a peace process including a Palestinian state if Israel's rights are respected.
