On Monday, Iran and Iraq signed a Memorandum of Understanding on bilateral defense cooperation. The agreement lays out the basis for an "expansion of defense cooperation between the two countries," according to Iran's official IRNA news agency. The agreement is expected to play a role in influencing Baghdad to refuse an American request that US troops be allowed to remain in Iraq past the end of 2008.
n addition to its defense pact with Iraq, Iran signed a similar Memorandum of Understanding with Syria in 2006. Iran and Syria cooperate in supplying and supporting the Hizbullah terrorist organization endeavoring to take over Lebanon, on Israel's northern border.
Will this "alleged" mutual defense pact between Iraq and Iran affect America's abitlity to conclude a diplomatic solution to the nuclear issue between Iran and the rest of the world?
Our common security is challenged by regional conflicts -- ethnic and
religious strife that is ancient, but not inevitable. In the Middle East, there
can be no peace for either side without freedom for both sides
Had Saddam Hussein been appeased instead of stopped, he would
have endangered the peace and stability of the world. Yet this aggression was
stopped -- by the might of coalition forces and the will of the United Nations.
To suspend hostilities, to spare himself, Iraq's dictator accepted a series
of commitments. The terms were clear, to him and to all. And he agreed to
prove he is complying with every one of those obligations.
He has proven instead only his contempt for the United Nations, and for all
his pledges. By breaking every pledge -- by his deceptions, and by his
cruelties -- Saddam Hussein has made the case against himself.
n 1991, Security Council Resolution 688 demanded that the Iraqi regime
cease at once the repression of its own people, including the systematic
repression of minorities -- which the Council said, threatened international
peace and security in the region. This demand goes ignored.
he founding members resolved that the peace of the world must never
again be destroyed by the will and wickedness of any man. We created the United
Nations Security Council, so that, unlike the League of Nations, our
deliberations would be more than talk, our resolutions would be more than
wishes. After generations of deceitful dictators and broken treaties and
squandered lives, we dedicated ourselves to standards of human dignity shared by
all, and to a system of security defended by all.
Tens of thousands of political opponents and
ordinary citizens have been subjected to arbitrary arrest and imprisonment,
summary execution, and torture by beating and burning, electric shock,
starvation, mutilation, and rape. Wives are tortured in front of their
husbands, children in the presence of their parents -- and all of these horrors
concealed from the world by the apparatus of a totalitarian state.
In 1993,
Iraq attempted to assassinate the Emir of Kuwait and a former American
President. Iraq's government openly praised the attacks of September the 11th.
And al Qaeda terrorists escaped from Afghanistan and are known to be in Iraq.
U.N. inspectors believe Iraq has produced two to four
times the amount of biological agents it declared,
s we meet today, it's been almost four years since the last U.N.
inspectors set foot in Iraq, four years for the Iraqi regime to plan, and to
build, and to test behind the cloak of secrecy.
Just months after the 1991 cease-fire, the Security Council twice renewed its
demand that the Iraqi regime cooperate fully with inspectors, condemning Iraq's
serious violations of its obligations. The Security Council again renewed that
demand in 1994, and twice more in 1996, deploring Iraq's clear violations of its
obligations. The Security Council renewed its demand three more times in 1997,
citing flagrant violations; and three more times in 1998, calling Iraq's
behavior totally unacceptable. And in 1999, the demand was renewed yet again.
