Stephen Hadley Point Quotations

I think the point that we need to emphasize here was, allegations now that the president somehow manipulated intelligence, somehow misled the American people are flat wrong.

We are every month at this point been able to turn over more territory to Iraqis.

At this point people are comfortable that the necessary precautions are in place but this is not a risk-free undertaking.

One cannot let dangers grow to the point of imminent threat to the United States without taking action. And if other measures fail, obviously we retain to right to use force.

I point out that some of the critics today believed, themselves, in 2002 that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. They stated that belief, and they voted to authorize the use of force in Iraq.
