Terrorists became convinced in the 90's they could get away with it and became bolder.

Since 9/11, we went to war and history has taken a different turn. We have taken the fight to the enemy.

I've always said that you can't ignore bullies. It only emboldens them to commit even more serious offenses. When they are ignored by the people they prey on, they look at that as a sign of weakness and use it to their advantage.

Ha ha, Bill Clinton! You just got dissed on national television with the networks as willing accomplices. :-)

President's Remarks view

This country has many challenges. We will not deny, we will not ignore, we will not pass along our problems to other Congresses, to other presidents, and other generations. (Applause.) We will confront them with focus and clarity and courage...

Sending Americans into battle is the most profound decision a President can make. The technologies of war have changed; the risks and suffering of war have not. For the brave Americans who bear the risk, no victory is free from sorrow. This nation fights reluctantly, because we know the cost and we dread the days of mourning that always come.

We seek peace. We strive for peace. And sometimes peace must be defended. A future lived at the mercy of terrible threats is no peace at all. If war is forced upon us, we will fight in a just cause and by just means -- sparing, in every way we can, the innocent. And if war is forced upon us, we will fight with the full force and might of the United States military -- and we will prevail. (Applause.)
