History teaches that war begins when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap.

The American taxing structure, the purpose of which was to serve the people, began instead to serve the insatiable appetite of government.

Americans are not going to tolerate intimidation, terror and outright acts of war against this nation and its people. And we are especially not going to tolerate these attacks from outlaw states run by the strangest collection of misfits, Looney Tunes and squalid criminals since the advent of the Third Reich ...

We must act together - or unilateraly, if necessary - to ensue that these terrorists have no sanctuary, anywhere.
