"...for us to ignore -by inaction- the slaughter of American citizens and American soldiers ... is simply
not in the American tradition.
When our citizens are abused or attacked -anywhere in the world- on the direct orders of a hostile regime, we will respond so long as I am in this Oval Office.
Self-defense is not just our right... it's our duty."
Self-defense is not just our right... it's our duty."
