For Immediate Release
Office of the = Press=20 Secretary
October 2, 2002

Joint=20 Resolution to Authorize the Use of United States Armed Forces Against = Iraq=20

Whereas in 1990 in response to Iraq's war of aggression against and = illegal=20 occupation of Kuwait, the United States forged a coalition of nations to = liberate Kuwait and its people in order to defend the national security = of the=20 United States and enforce United Nations Security Council resolutions = relating=20 to Iraq;=20

Whereas after the liberation of Kuwait in 1991, Iraq entered into a = United=20 Nations sponsored cease-fire agreement pursuant to which Iraq = unequivocally=20 agreed, among other things, to eliminate its nuclear, biological, and = chemical=20 weapons programs and the means to deliver and develop them, and to end = its=20 support for international terrorism;=20

Whereas the efforts of international weapons inspectors, United = States=20 intelligence agencies, and Iraqi defectors led to the discovery that = Iraq had=20 large stockpiles of chemical weapons and a large scale biological = weapons=20 program, and that Iraq had an advanced nuclear weapons development = program that=20 was much closer to producing a nuclear weapon than intelligence = reporting had=20 previously indicated;=20

Whereas Iraq, in direct and flagrant violation of the cease-fire, = attempted=20 to thwart the efforts of weapons inspectors to identify and destroy = Iraq's=20 weapons of mass destruction stockpiles and development capabilities, = which=20 finally resulted in the withdrawal of inspectors from Iraq on October = 31, 1998;=20

Whereas in 1998 Congress concluded that Iraq's continuing weapons of = mass=20 destruction programs threatened vital United States interests and = international=20 peace and security, declared Iraq to be in "material and unacceptable = breach of=20 its international obligations" and urged the President "to take = appropriate=20 action, in accordance with the Constitution and relevant laws of the = United=20 States, to bring Iraq into compliance with its international = obligations"=20 (Public Law 105-235);=20

Whereas Iraq both poses a continuing threat to the national security = of the=20 United States and international peace and security in the Persian Gulf = region=20 and remains in material and unacceptable breach of its international = obligations=20 by, among other things, continuing to possess and develop a significant = chemical=20 and biological weapons capability, actively seeking a nuclear weapons=20 capability, and supporting and harboring terrorist organizations;=20

Whereas Iraq persists in violating resolutions of the United Nations = Security=20 Council by continuing to engage in brutal repression of its civilian = population=20 thereby threatening international peace and security in the region, by = refusing=20 to release, repatriate, or account for non-Iraqi citizens wrongfully = detained by=20 Iraq, including an American serviceman, and by failing to return = property=20 wrongfully seized by Iraq from Kuwait;=20

Whereas the current Iraqi regime has demonstrated its capability and=20 willingness to use weapons of mass destruction against other nations and = its own=20 people;=20

Whereas the current Iraqi regime has demonstrated its continuing = hostility=20 toward, and willingness to attack, the United States, including by = attempting in=20 1993 to assassinate former President Bush and by firing on many = thousands of=20 occasions on United States and Coalition Armed Forces engaged in = enforcing the=20 resolutions of the United Nations Security Council;=20

Whereas members of al Qaida, an organization bearing responsibility = for=20 attacks on the United States, its citizens, and interests, including the = attacks=20 that occurred on September 11, 2001, are known to be in Iraq;=20

Whereas Iraq continues to aid and harbor other international = terrorist=20 organizations, including organizations that threaten the lives and = safety of=20 American citizens;=20

Whereas the attacks on the United States of September 11, 2001 = underscored=20 the gravity of the threat posed by the acquisition of weapons of mass=20 destruction by international terrorist organizations;=20

Whereas Iraq's demonstrated capability and willingness to use weapons = of mass=20 destruction, the risk that the current Iraqi regime will either employ = those=20 weapons to launch a surprise attack against the United States or its = Armed=20 Forces or provide them to international terrorists who would do so, and = the=20 extreme magnitude of harm that would result to the United States and its = citizens from such an attack, combine to justify action by the United = States to=20 defend itself;=20

Whereas United Nations Security Council Resolution 678 authorizes the = use of=20 all necessary means to enforce United Nations Security Council = Resolution 660=20 and subsequent relevant resolutions and to compel Iraq to cease certain=20 activities that threaten international peace and security, including the = development of weapons of mass destruction and refusal or obstruction of = United=20 Nations weapons inspections in violation of United Nations Security = Council=20 Resolution 687, repression of its civilian population in violation of = United=20 Nations Security Council Resolution 688, and threatening its neighbors = or United=20 Nations operations in Iraq in violation of United Nations Security = Council=20 Resolution 949;=20

Whereas Congress in the Authorization for Use of Military Force = Against Iraq=20 Resolution (Public Law 102-1) has authorized the President "to use = United States=20 Armed Forces pursuant to United Nations Security Council Resolution 678 = (1990)=20 in order to achieve implementation of Security Council Resolutions 660, = 661,=20 662, 664, 665, 666, 667, 669, 670, 674, and 677";=20

Whereas in December 1991, Congress expressed its sense that it = "supports the=20 use of all necessary means to achieve the goals of United Nations = Security=20 Council Resolution 687 as being consistent with the Authorization of Use = of=20 Military Force Against Iraq Resolution (Public Law 102-1)," that Iraq's=20 repression of its civilian population violates United Nations Security = Council=20 Resolution 688 and "constitutes a continuing threat to the peace, = security, and=20 stability of the Persian Gulf region," and that Congress, "supports the = use of=20 all necessary means to achieve the goals of United Nations Security = Council=20 Resolution 688";=20

Whereas the Iraq Liberation Act (Public Law 105-338) expressed the = sense of=20 Congress that it should be the policy of the United States to support = efforts to=20 remove from power the current Iraqi regime and promote the emergence of = a=20 democratic government to replace that regime;=20

Whereas on September 12, 2002, President Bush committed the United = States to=20 "work with the United Nations Security Council to meet our common = challenge"=20 posed by Iraq and to "work for the necessary resolutions," while also = making=20 clear that "the Security Council resolutions will be enforced, and the = just=20 demands of peace and security will be met, or action will be = unavoidable";=20

Whereas the United States is determined to prosecute the war on = terrorism and=20 Iraq's ongoing support for international terrorist groups combined with = its=20 development of weapons of mass destruction in direct violation of its=20 obligations under the 1991 cease-fire and other United Nations Security = Council=20 resolutions make clear that it is in the national security interests of = the=20 United States and in furtherance of the war on terrorism that all = relevant=20 United Nations Security Council resolutions be enforced, including = through the=20 use of force if necessary;=20

Whereas Congress has taken steps to pursue vigorously the war on = terrorism=20 through the provision of authorities and funding requested by the = President to=20 take the necessary actions against international terrorists and = terrorist=20 organizations, including those nations, organizations or persons who = planned,=20 authorized, committed or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on = September=20 11, 2001 or harbored such persons or organizations;=20

Whereas the President and Congress are determined to continue to take = all=20 appropriate actions against international terrorists and terrorist=20 organizations, including those nations, organizations or persons who = planned,=20 authorized, committed or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on = September=20 11, 2001, or harbored such persons or organizations;=20

Whereas the President has authority under the Constitution to take = action in=20 order to deter and prevent acts of international terrorism against the = United=20 States, as Congress recognized in the joint resolution on Authorization = for Use=20 of Military Force (Public Law 107-40); and=20

Whereas it is in the national security of the United States to = restore=20 international peace and security to the Persian Gulf region;=20

Now, therefore, be it resolved by the Senate and House of = Representatives of=20 the United States of America in Congress assembled,=20
