President George W. Bush, after having breakfast with the crew of a Navy reconnaissance plane, answers questions in the oval office from reporters on the efforts to get the crew's plane back from China and comments on the recent violence in the Middle East. The crew was awarded for their courage when the previous month their plane was forced to take an emergency landing into Chinese territory without authorization due to a collision with a Chinese fighter plane.
