Iran has always had a nuclear weapons program.

The men and women of the U.S. armed forces are courageous and loyal beyond measure. They make sacrifices every day, and nearly 5,000 of them have made the ultimate sacrifice. They deserve our respect, our support, and our thanks. But the sacrifices of those brave men and women in Iraq are not for the defense of their country, and they are not protecting our freedom. They are being sacrificed because of incompetence and intransigence; for power and profit; for mistakes and malfeasance; for stupidity and stubbornness.

Their empty seats at their families' tables are empty only because George W. Bush wants a war in Iraq.

And the purpose of having a war in Iraq...is to have a war in Iraq.

WAR is not PEACE, FREEDOM is not SLAVERY, IGNORANCE is not STRENGTH, and Oceania has not always been at war with Eurasia.
