I think, as a general matter, clearly, the United States globally supports the development of democracy and the democratic yearnings of all people.

There are many countries who have traditionally sponsored terrorism. Iraq is one, though it appears the majority of the terrorism committed by Saddam Hussein is on his own citizens. Iran in this regard. Syria, with their close support of Hezbollah, is noteworthy in this respect.

The war we are fighting today against terrorism is a multifaceted fight. We have to use every tool in our toolkit to wage this war - diplomacy, finance, intelligence, law enforcement, and of course, military power - and we are developing new tools as we go along.

A terrorist is one who kills innocents for the pursuit of a political aim.

I'm the only honest person in Washington.
