The world is now in a certain position and there is no point bemoaning that more time was not given to the inspectors or that a second resolution was not carried. There is a war and the question is: "What should the Government do?" It must try to pick up the pieces. I congratulate the Minister for Foreign Affairs and our diplomats for the work done during Ireland's membership of the Security Council, including their part in crafting Resolution 1441. We must maintain our position as brokers between Europe and America and within Europe. We must support humanitarian activity in helping to rebuild Iraq.
