More quotes by John F. Kerry
So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real.
John F. Kerry
Think about this: terrorism, epidemics, poverty, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction-all challenges that know no borders-the reality is that climate change ranks right up there with every single one of them.
John F. Kerry
We were sent to Vietnam to kill Communism. But we found instead that we were killing women and children.
John F. Kerry
If you don't believe ... Saddam Hussein is a threat with nuclear weapons, then you shouldn't vote for me.
John F. Kerry
I voted to threaten the use of force to make Saddam Hussein comply with the resolutions of the United Nations.
John F. Kerry
I know that our country is strongest when we lead the world, when we lead strong alliances. And that's the way Eisenhower and Reagan and Kennedy and others did it.
John F. Kerry
I think the United States is still the indispensable force for positive change and for rule of law and for order and structure.
John F. Kerry
America has everything most countries envy. A Constitution which is the treasure of mankind, a strong military, natural resources of every kind. Above all, as Tocqueville said, a good people, which is what makes us great.
John F. Kerry
America has an ability to try to make some things happen that other countries don't necessarily have.
John F. Kerry
If Saddam Hussein is unwilling to bend to the international community's already existing order, then he will have invited enforcement, even if that enforcement is mostly at the hands of the United States, a right we retain even if the Security Council fails to act.
John F. Kerry
There is some schedule showing what you (need) to do to get Iraqis standing up and defending themselves which is now suddenly beginning to happen, so there are some signs of progress.
John F. Kerry
After Mitt Romney said it would be naive to go into Pakistan to pursue the terrorists, it took President Obama, against the advice of many, to give that order and finally rid this earth of Osama bin Laden. Ask Osama bin Laden is he is better off now than he was four years ago.
John F. Kerry
I believe it is both unwise and even wrong to interfere in the affairs of other nations. Indeed, if we are honest, we will see that this is one of the reasons for 9-11.
John F. Kerry
If the threat is jihadism - and it is - and the threat is the destruction of Syria so that all of these refugees are swamping into Europe and changing the whole character and politics of Europe, this is the time to unite to find a way out.
John F. Kerry
I think it was the right decision to disarm Saddam Hussein. And when the president made the decision, I supported him, and I support the fact that we did disarm him.
John F. Kerry
There are issues of war and peace. And then, there are issues of life and death like this one that are no less morally compelling than war itself.
John F. Kerry
If you think I would have gone to war the way George Bush did, don't vote for me.
John F. Kerry
President Obama has made it his mission that we welcome our troops home with care, and concern, and the respect they deserve. That is how an exceptional nation says thank you to its most exceptional men and women.
John F. Kerry
I think George Mitchell is a consummate professional. He is the ideal selection to handle the job of special envoy if you choose to have a special envoy.
John F. Kerry
You don't value families if you force them to take up a collection to buy body armor for a son or daughter in the service.
