Daily Question:
"While the world waited, Saddam Hussein met every overture of peace with open contempt. While the world prayed for peace, Saddam prepared for war... Tonight, 28 nations - countries from five continents, Europe and Asia, Africa and the Arab League- have forces in the Gulf Area standing shoulder to shoulder against Saddam Hussein..."

"This is an historic moment. We have in this past year made great progress in ending the long era of conflict and cold war. We have before us the opportunity to forge for ourselves and for future generations a new world order -- a world where the rule of law, not the law of the jungle, governs the conduct of nations. When we are successful -- and we will be -- we have a real chance at this new world order, an order in which a credible United Nations can use its peacekeeping role to fulfill the promise and vision of the U.N.'s founders."

-President George H.W. Bush, Address to the Nation, January 16, 1991
