They have no moral inhibition on the slaughter of the innocent. If they
could have murdered not 7,000 but 70,000, does anyone doubt they

Liberty for the Iraqi people is a great moral cause, and a great strategic

in approximately 5,000 deaths.
2,000 Kurdish villages were destroyed during the campaign of terror. |

no point of understanding with such terror.
Just a choice: defeat it
or be defeated by it.
And defeat it we must! |

Victory at all costs,
victory in spite of all terror,
victory however long
and hard the road may be;
for without victory,
there is no survival.
