The truth about war and failed foreign policy
"I cannot support a failed foreign policy. History teaches us that it
is often easier to make war than peace. This administration is just
learning that lesson right now. The President began this mission with
very vague objectives and lots of unanswered questions. A month
later, these questions are still unanswered. There are no clarified
rules of engagement. There is no timetable. There is no legitimate
definition of victory. There is no contingency plan for mission creep.
There is no clear funding program. There is no agenda to bolster our
over-extended military. There is no explanation defining what vital
national interests are at stake. There was no strategic plan for war
when the President started this thing, and there still is no plan
today"
--Rep Tom Delay (R-TX) commenting on Bill Clinton's air strikes in Bosnia to end the genocide...where not a single American came home in a body bag.
