“Secretary of state Colin Powell himself eloquently pointed out the many ways to get at the root of this problem... economic, diplomatic, legal and political, as well as military. A rush to launch precipitous military counterattacks runs too great a risk that more innocent men, women and children will be killed. I could not vote for a resolution that I believe will lead to such an outcome.” MenWayBelieveWellsChildrenStatesProblemRunningPoliticalI BelieveRiskEconomicMilitaryRootsVoteInnocentOutcomesResolutionSecretaryMen WomenEloquenceDiplomaticInnocent Man Author:Barbara Lee

“The war against Russia is an important chapter in the German nation's struggle for existence. [...] The objective of this battle must be the demolition of present-day Russia and must therefore be conducted with unprecedented severity. Every military action must be guided in planning and execution by an iron resolution to exterminate the enemy remorselessly and totally. In particular, no adherents of the contemporary Russian Bolshevik system are to be spared.” ImportantWarActionNationsExistenceEnemyStruggleMilitaryParticularBattlePlanningRussiaObjectivesContemporaryIronResolutionExecutionChaptersUnprecedentedPresent DaySeverityBolsheviksMilitary ActionStruggle For ExistenceDemolition Author:Franz Halder
“My hope was that by saying clearly to Saddam Hussein, "we're going to enforce UN Resolutions," that he would make the decision to leave peaceably and at least allow for inspectors to come into his country, and if he chose not to, there would be a military option.
