Bush sees 'positive signs' of Syrian cooperation

US President George W

US President George W. Bushsaid today that he saw "positive signs" that Syria was cooperating with his call not to harbor fleeing leaders of Saddam Hussein's Iraqi regime.

"Seems like they're beginning to get the message. And when we think there's somebody there, or know somebody's there we, of course, will pass on the name and fully expect the Syrian government to hand the person over," he said.

"I'm confident the Syrian government has heard us, and I believe it when they say they want to cooperate with us," he said as he emerged from an Easter Sunday church service on the Fort Hood military base.
