But it is interesting, much has been made in terms of who voted against it, why they voted against it, but there were Democrats and Republicans. Again, less than 15 percent of the Congress, but I am going to quote from one of our Republican colleagues and the quote is, ``If we are going to bring peace to that troubled region, we must be scrupulously honest. There are piles of bodies in the Middle East, many of the victims of noncombatants, and both sides of the conflict have engaged in the slaughter of innocents.'' Someone said that from the floor of this Chamber not that long ago, a week and a half ago.
