Mr. Speaker, in the Great Seal of the United States, the eagle clutches arrows and an olive branch. While today's Iran agreement puts the olive branch out first, the arrows remain firmly in our grasp. The safety of all our families in the United States, in Israel, and elsewhere, is advanced by pursuing a verifiable, enforceable, diplomatic solution. Refusing to be frozen by fear or pushed into conflict by those who are just campaigning or who are campaigning for war, the President recognizes diplomacy as our greatest strength. So many of those who loudly renounced this deal before they have even read it also loudly supported the stunning historic mistake of a go-it- alone invasion of Iraq. No choice is without risk, but strong inspections and verification are the best path to peace and security for all of our families. ____________________
