DUBAI (Reuters) - President George W. Bush said military action was a
last resort in dealing with Syria and he hoped Damascus would
cooperate with a probe into the killing of former Lebanese premier
Rafik al-Hariri.

"A military (option) is always the last choice of a president," he
told Al Arabiya television in an interview aired on Tuesday when asked
about a U.N. investigation that implicated Syrian officials in the
killing of Hariri.

"I am hoping that they will cooperate. It (military action) is the
last -- very last option," he said. "But on the other hand, you know
-- and I've worked hard for diplomacy and will continue to work the
diplomatic angle on this issue."

Reuters obtained a transcript of the Bush interview, conducted in
Washington on Monday, from Dubai-based Al Arabiya. >>>cont
