Global Message

It is important for the world to see that the US and its allies are united in resolve to deal with the threats we face.

Saddam Hussein's regime now claims that Iraq would comply unconditionally with UN demands.

While this is evidence that world pressure can force the Iraqi regime to respond, it is also a return to form.

Repeatedly, Iraq's version of "without conditions" has meant deception, delay, and disregard for the United Nations.

Saddam Hussein has repeatedly violated 16 UNSC resolutions designed to ensure that Iraq does not pose a threat to international peace and security.
