Which US President said this:?

Question

"The hard fact is that so long as Saddam remains in power, he threatens the well-being of his people, the peace of his region, the security of the world.

The best way to end that threat once and for all is with a new Iraqi government -- a government ready to live in peace with its neighbors, a government that respects the rights of its people."

If you said Clinton, you are correct.

Clinton said this in the same address:
"So we will pursue a long-term strategy to contain Iraq and its weapons of mass destruction and work toward the day when Iraq has a government worthy of its people."

Answer 1

PRESIDENT CLINTON OF COURSE.

NOW HE SAYS ITS A MISTAKE..........

HE GOES WITH THE WIND.

Answer 2

But Clinton never invaded Iraq and cost us more lives than 9/11 did. All sane people would recognize how evil Saddam was but would also realize that you just can't force your own style of government on other people. It happened with the Romans, the British, the Germans, the Russians, and others.

Answer 3

The quote: Over the weekend, President Obama accused the employer community of no longer being aggressive sufficient, asserting, “We’ve been a sprint bit lazy over the final few some years. We’ve form of occupied without interest human beings will decide back returned precise right here and we aren’t obtainable hungry, merchandising u . s . and attempting to entice new agencies into u . s ..” Sounds precise to me. fairly, we are (the President too, he's not any diverse than Bush) giving agencies incentive to outsource our jobs.

Answer 4

IF you notice, he said contain. not invade and take over. Clinton was smart. He recognized Saddam for the threat that he was and realized that going in and taking over would not work. His policy of containment worked perfectly. When BUsh invaded we found a pitiful military, no WMD's and no WMD programs.
Looks like Clinton was right after all.

Answer 5

Yep but don't expect to hold Bill to his word or the other democrats about saddam even Hillary the smartest woman in the world.
Who also believe saddam had WMDs before Bush took office.

Answer 6

Too bad we couldn't pay Clinton to fight the war after Saddam. Things might be a hell of a lot better over there, considering Clinton's successes when he was President.

Answer 7

But Clinton wasn't stupid enough to invade his country with several big whopping lies! There are other ways to take him out, but his replacement, when all is said and done, will probably worse than Saddam or Bush!

Saddam was over estimated by everyone. His soldiers would cut and run, not fight!

Washington said this in his farwell address. I think you should read it!

"It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with
any portion of the foreign world, so far, I mean, as we are now
at liberty to do it; for let me not be understood as capable of
patronizing infidelity to existing engagements. I hold the maxim
no less applicable to public than to private affairs that honesty
is always the best policy. I repeat, therefore, let those
engagements be observed in their genuine sense. But in my opinion
it is unnecessary and would be unwise to extend them.

Taking care always to keep ourselves by suitable establishments
on a respectable defensive posture, we may safely trust to
temporary alliances for extraordinary emergencies.

Harmony, liberal intercourse with all nations are recommended
by policy, humanity, and interest. But even our commercial
policy should hold an equal and impartial hand, neither seeking
nor granting exclusive favors or preferences; consulting the
natural course of things; diffusing and diversifying by gentle
means the streams of commerce, but forcing nothing; establishing
with powers so disposed, in order to give trade a stable course,
to define the rights of our merchants, and to enable the
Government to support them, conventional rules of intercourse,
the best that present circumstances and mutual opinion will
permit, but temporary and liable to be from time to time
abandoned or varied as experience and circumstances shall
dictate; constantly keeping in view that it is folly in one
nation to look for disinterested favors from another; that it
must pay with a portion of its independence for whatever it may
accept under that character; that by such acceptance it may
place itself in the condition of having given equivalents for
nominal favors, and yet being reproached with ingratitude for
not giving more. There can be no greater error than to expect
or calculate upon real favors from nation to nation. It is an
illusion which experience must cure, which a just pride ought
to discard."

Answer 8

Obviously, Saddam was a despicable and terrifying leader.

That doesn't mean he was behind 9/11 or had WMD though.
