Humanitarian Crisis in Iraq: Statements.

 

We should not presume that this war will end in a certain way and let our policies be dictated by that presumption. We should take it for granted that if only one person believes there is a righteous approach in a time like this, that person will convince others. I will try to get inside the minds of the one in three people in Ireland who support the war and the minds of the one in four people who support what President Bush is doing. It will be difficult, but my main job will be to convince the one person in three – I will omit the political aspect of convincing the one in four – that there is no justification for this war. It should end now. The troops should come back and let us return to the diplomatic road.
