Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak listens to U.S. President George W Bush at a press conference at Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas, April 12, 2004. Besides Israeli-Palestinian peace prospects, Bush and Mubarak are expected to talk about the chaotic situation in Iraq, where mounting casualties and bloodshed raise questions about a U.S. pledge to transfer sovereignty to an interim Iraqi government by June 30.
