"We consider the Holy Land a very special place, and we consider the Israeli people our close friends," US President George W. Bush said Wednesday upon arrival in Israel.

The president arrived in Israel shortly after 11 a.m., his second visit to the country in approximately four months.

He was once again greeted in regal fashion when he landed in Ben-Gurion Airport to celebrate Israel's 60th anniversary. His reception included a red carpet ceremony, complete with army band and honor guard, attended by Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and President Shimon Peres as well as the entire cabinet and an assortment of dignitaries. They lined up and shook the president's hand one by one.

"Our two nations both faced great challenges when they were founded," Bush said as the leaders took turns at short speeches. "And our two nations have both relied on the same principles to help us succeed. We built strong democracies to protect the freedoms given to us by an almighty God ... and we built an enduring alliance to confront terrorists and tyrants."

Also speaking on the tarmac, Olmert told Bush: "Your decision to celebrate this historic milestone with us is an extraordinary gesture of friendship and it's further evidence of your unending commitment to the security and well-being of our country."

Upon completion of the formalities, the president flew by helicopter to Jerusalem, where he will attend ceremonies marking the state's 60th anniversary.

In one of the largest security operations in years, 14,000 Israeli police officers will man the streets of the capital, safeguarding the president and his entourage for their three-day visit.

The main Jerusalem-Tel Aviv highway was to be closed at 11:30 a.m. as the president's entourage made its way to the city.

Jerusalemites can expect major traffic jams throughout the city, as police close off central Jerusalem thoroughfares during the visit, dubbed by police "Operation Clear Skies 2." A police hotline, 1-700-50-20-30, offers residents information about street closures.

Bush will meet with Olmert and Peres during his visit, and attend an international conference hosted by the Peres at the International Convention Center. Thursday morning, Bush will head to Masada, before returning to Jerusalem to address a special session of the Knesset at mid-day. On Friday, he'll meet with young people at the city's Bible Lands Museum, before leaving the country at 11:00 a.m.

The president will then travel to the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh where he will meet over two days with a handful of leaders: Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, Afghan President Hamid Karzai, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Salaam Fayad, Jordan's King Abdullah II and Iraqi leaders.

Bush was also scheduled to meet with Lebanese Prime Minister Fuad Saniora but that was now in doubt in light of recent clashes between the US-backed government in Beirut and the Hizbullah-led opposition.
