[t]he People Of Iraq Have Spoken To

We Are Not Deceived By Their Pretenses To Piety. We Have Seen Their Kind Before. They Are The Heirs Of All The Murderous Ideologies Of The 20th Century. By Sacrificing Human Life To Serve Their Radical Visions - By Abandoning Every Value Except The Will To Power - They Follow In The Path Of Fascism, And Nazism, And Totalitarianism. And They Will Follow That Path All The Way, To Where It Ends: In History's Unmarked Grave Of Discarded Lies.

I Have Said That The Sanction Regime Is Like Swiss Cheese - That Meant That They Weren't Very Effective.

We Will Direct Every Resource At Our Command - Every Means Of Diplomacy, Every Tool Of Intelligence, Every Instrument Of Law Enforcement, Every Financial Influence, And Every Necessary Weapon Of War - To The Destruction And To The Defeat Of The Global Terror Network.

Immigrants Bring To America The Values Of Faith In God, Love Of Family, Hard Work And Self Reliance - The Values That Made Us A Great Nation To Begin With. We've All Seen Those Values In Action, Through The Service And Sacrifice Of More Than 35,000 Foreign-born Men And Women Currently On Active Duty In The United States Military.

All Of Us Here Today Understand This: We Do Not Fight Islam, We Fight Against Evil.
