Global Message

KEY POINTS

  • Leaders from both parties and both houses of Congress are rallying around a resolution on Iraq that shows to friend and enemy alike our unity of purpose and resolve.

  • Congress is quickly closing ranks behind the President, and soon America will be speaking with one voice in confronting a gathering threat to America and the future of peace around the world.

  • The treacherous history of Iraq's dictator is to wage war against neighbors, sponsor and support terrorists, and develop and use weapons of mass death.

  • We know the methods of this regime. They buy time with hollow promises and move incriminating evidence to stay ahead of inspectors.

  • The United States will work with other nations to bring Saddam to account, help the Iraqi people form a just government and a unified country, and should force be required, help rebuild a liberated Iraq.
