" Chirac: "Living in Fear" Not So Bad
(2002-10-07) -- U.S. President George Bush, in his speech to the nation on the Iraq situation tonight, said, "We refuse to live in fear." The remark was met with thunderous and prolonged applause from the live audience.
French President Jacques Chirac, in his response to the Bush speech said, "Living in fear is not so bad. Don't knock it until you've tried it. It's certainly cheaper than defending your nation against crazed dictators with weapons of mass destruction."
Chirac added that appeasement of tyrants is a good strategy, "especially if you have a bellicose ally who will come to your aide if appeasement fails.""
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
