Our failure to enforce the red line has been one of the most devastating foreign policy decisions.

25 MRAPs is really a joke.

I agree with you, I mean, I think toppling him by force is not the best answer. The best is a peaceful transition to maintain the state.

Two hundred thousand dead Syrians today, at least many of which are women and children by the evil dictatorship of Bashar al-Assad, who by the way is no protector of Christianity.

I hope that we begin to hear from this administration a strategy for Syria.

Iran is not our friend. Probably a significant number of American casualties that occurred in the war I was in Iraq occurred directly or indirectly from Iran.

Bashar al-Assad, if I hear it again I am going to pull my hair out, is no friend of the United States, no friend to Christianity, no friend to the West.

I think we have to never put on the table what we are not willing to do.

I knew that if we didn't leave a residual force, this was going to fall apart.

This is not a problem that is going to go away by us exercising restraint.

He is a murderer and he is a brutal dictator, and he needs deposed, and hopefully peacefully, but he needs to be gone.

The United States can only be defeated in a case like this by our will.

I think if there is an attempt by the administration to come to this body and even--or not come to the body but say, we need additional time, I mean, I hope and I think there would be bipartisan support to not give that

The message to Iran is simple--just stop or pay a price.

As Mr. Wilson alluded to as well, there are American soldiers that are not alive today because of the actions of Iran.

I support this amendment, not because it is part of a larger strategy in Syria that we would like to see from this administration but because it is a first step in addressing ISIS in Syria. I ask my colleagues to support this first step…

I was a supporter of intervention in Libya. I thought we did the right thing.

He stood up and said that he had faith that he was going to make it to the United States of America because the United States of America came to his country to help them, and he knows that the United States of America will do the right…

Deterrence is will plus capability. I think we have the capability to deter. Right now I think what is in question is the will, and that is important for the negotiations.

We have to bring our allies with us.

The RPS mandate will cost Illinois electricity customers an additional $4.5 billion over current prices from 2014 to 2026.

A very similar mandate was instituted in my home State of Illinois in 2007 that demanded almost the exact same thing through a program called the Renewable Portfolio Standard.

I think with this, I mean everybody is kind of not saying it, but what it seems like is the administration is just paralyzed.

It is extremely disheartening for me to see this absolutely predictable scenario unfolding in front of our eyes.

I believe, frankly, that the President withdrew from Iraq for political convenience.
