    Statement on the Terrorist Attack in Karachi, Pakistan
    May 8, 2002

        The United States deplores and condemns the terrorist murders
    carried out by a suicide bomber in Karachi, Pakistan, earlier today.
    Today's attack underscores the dangers all our citizens and societies
    continue to face from such attacks and strengthens our resolve to
    continue working together to fight terrorism at home and abroad.
        On behalf of the American people, I extend my condolences to the
    families of the victims and the people of Pakistan and France, whose
    citizens were killed in this attack.
