“I believe it is important today to talk about the remarks President Bush made at the United Nations. I believe he has made a courageous call on the United Nations to defend its credibility in its dealings with Iraq by ensuring that Iraq does not continue to update its weapons of mass destruction and does not continue to violate with impunity the 16 U.N. resolutions of which he is in violation. I think those remarks were a true example of world leadership. President Bush spoke as one who knows right from wrong, who has honest convictions, and he has the courage to express and to act on them. In direct words, he detailed the incontrovertible case that Saddam Hussein deliberately used his promises at the time of his defeat in the Gulf War as a considered strategy to cause the allies to stop their hostilities before removing him from power, which has proven to be a trick. Since then, his actions have clearly confirmed his deception and have shown his insincerity, his duplicity, and his complete rejection of the U.N. resolutions--his rejections, indeed, of the United Nations itself and of the United States and the nations that joined together to defeat him in 1991.”
