When A Decision Is Made To Go

We Have A Hope Of Succeeding If We Learn From Our Past Mistakes And Pull Together To Make The Hard Choices.

We Should Be Hell Bent On Getting Those Weapons Of Mass Destruction, Hell Bent On Having A Credible Approach To Them, But We Should Try To Do It In A Way Which Keeps The World Together And That Achieves Our Goal Which Is Removing The... Defanging Saddam.

If Our Intelligence Is Either Manipulated Or If It's Shaded Or If In Some Way It Is Exaggerated, It Is Very, Very Dangerous For Us, Particularly As We Go Down The Road And Look At Other Threats.

We Begin With The Common Belief That Saddam Hussein Is A Tyrant And A Threat To The Peace And Stability Of The Region. He Has Ignored The Mandate Of The United Nations And Is Building Weapons Of Mass Destruction And The Means Of Delivering Them.

The Terrorist Attacks Of September 11th And The Courageous Actions Of Our Armed Forces In Afghanistan And Iraq Remind Us That Friends Of Tyranny And Enemies Of Freedom Still Exist
