yesterday our President, President George W. Bush, marked the 6-month anniversary of the terrorist attacks. I think we would all agree he used some very strong words for our adversaries. I quote President Bush: Every nation in our coalition must take seriously the growing threat of terror on a catastrophic scale--terror armed with biological, chemical or nuclear weapons. That was his comment yesterday. Further, he stated: Some states that sponsor terror are seeking or already possess weapons of mass destruction. Terrorist groups are hungry for these weapons and would use them without a hint of conscience. Further quoting him: In preventing the spread of weapons of mass destruction, there is no margin for error and no chance to learn from mistakes. Further quoting him: Our coalition must act deliberately, but inaction is not an option. I would refer to that again: 'inaction is not an option.' He added: Men with no respect for life must never be allowed to control the ultimate instruments of death. The President did not name names, but it is becoming increasingly clear that when we talk about targeting terror, we are talking about targeting Saddam Hussein's Iraq.
