America is fighting… and must win... two wars. The war in Iraq. And the war on terror. President Bush likes to confuse the two. He claims that Iraq is the centerpiece of the war on terror. In fact, Iraq was a profound diversion from that war and the battle against our greatest enemy: Osama bin Laden and the al Qaeda network. But now that we’re fighting two wars, we must… and we will… prevail in both. In Iraq, because the President’s miscalculations have created a terrorist haven that wasn’t there before. And in the worldwide struggle against the terrorists, because they attacked us … and because they represent the greatest threat to security in our time. In Iraq, every week brings fresh evidence that President Bush doesn’t see what’s happening – isn’t leveling with the American people about why we went to war in Iraq…how the war is going – and has no idea how to put our policy back on track. Here’s what Americans have learned over the past two weeks: -- The President’s top weapons inspector in Iraq released a final, exhaustive study, with this damning conclusion: Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction and no programs to produce them. Iraq was in fact a diminishing threat. The main reason President Bush gave for rushing to war was wrong.And here's John Kerry in 2013, preparing to duplicate the Iraq war:
Moreover, we know that the Syrian regime maintains custody of these chemical weapons. We know that the Syrian regime has the capacity to do this with rockets. We know that the regime has been determined to clear the opposition from those very places where the attacks took place. And with our own eyes, we have all of us become witnesses. We have additional information about this attack, and that information is being compiled and reviewed together with our partners, and we will provide that information in the days ahead But make no mistake: President Obama believes there must be accountability for those who would use the world’s most heinous weapons against the world’s most vulnerable people. Nothing today is more serious, and nothing is receiving more serious scrutiny.
