Appeasement does not work. As was the case in the 1930s, we see in Saddam Hussein an aggressive dictator threatening his neighbors.

But I see history as a book with many pages--and each day we fill a page with acts of hopefulness and meaning.

We have before us the opportunity to forge for ourselves and for future generations a new world order, a world where the rule of law, not the law of the jungle, governs the conduct of nations. When we are successful, and we will be, we have a real chance at this new world order, an order in which a credible United Nations can use its peacekeeping role to fulfill the promise and vision of the U.N.'s founders.

History will point out some of the things I did wrong and some of the things I did right.

Now that I am no longer President, I find I can no longer win every game of golf I play.

My vision of a 'new world order' foresees a United Nations with a revitalized peacekeeping function.

I hope I stand for antibigotry, anti-Semitism, antiracism. This is what drives me.
