Kerry's speech on Iraq War Resolution

http://www.independentsforkerry.org/uploads/media/kerry-iraq.html

"If we do wind up going to war with Iraq, it is imperative that we do so with others in the international community, unless there is a showing of a grave, imminent--and I emphasize "imminent"--threat to this country which requires the President to respond in a way that protects our immediate national security needs. " -John Kerry

I think careful study of the bill that Kerry voted for show that he was not voting for war, he was voting for a series of measures including weapons inspectors, UN support, and evidence of WMDs in order to put pressure on Saddam that was backed by US military forces. After 6 months of failing to comply with the terms of the IWR, Bush invaded Iraq anyways. Somehow I can't see the wisdom in violating the UN to enforce Iraq's former violations against the UN.
