The House Bill that was voted on today is worded quite well!
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the importance and credibility of an independent Iraqi judiciary in the formation of a new and democratic Iraq.
Whereas the United States is supportive of a sovereign governing body in Iraq, including the current government as well as future duly elected governments and appointed officials;
Whereas Iraq, as do all sovereign nations, has the duty and responsibility to indict, prosecute, and punish criminals within its jurisdiction;
Whereas the Iraqi Special Tribunal holds the sovereign power to prosecute criminals;
Whereas certain accused individuals have allegedly committed egregious crimes against humanity, genocide, and war crimes;
Whereas the people of a free and democratic Iraq deserve justice for the horrific crimes inflicted upon them; and
Whereas the Iraqi Special Tribunal is empaneled to bring swift and impartial justice for the people, victims, and the nation of Iraq: Now, therefore, be it:
Resolved, That the House of Representatives fully supports an independent Iraqi judiciary and its efforts to serve the cause of justice in a free and democratic Iraq.
This one was good too!
RESOLUTION
Expressing the commitment of the House of Representatives to achieving victory in Iraq.
Whereas the Iraqi election of December 15, 2005, the first to take place under the newly ratified Iraqi Constitution, represented a crucial success in the establishment of a democratic, constitutional order in Iraq; and
Whereas Iraqis, who by the millions defied terrorist threats to vote, were protected by Iraqi security forces with the help of United States and Coalition forces: Now, therefore, be it:
Resolved, That--
(1) the House of Representatives is committed to achieving victory in Iraq;
(2) the Iraqi election of December 15, 2005, was a crucial victory for the Iraqi people and Iraq's new democracy, and a defeat for the terrorists who seek to destroy that democracy;
(3) the House of Representatives encourages all Americans to express solidarity with the Iraqi people as they take another step toward their goal of a free, open, and democratic society;
(4) the successful Iraqi election of December 15, 2005, required the presence of United States Armed Forces, United States-trained Iraqi forces, and Coalition forces;
(5) the continued presence of United States Armed Forces in Iraq will be required only until Iraqi forces can stand up so our forces can stand down, and no longer than is required for that purpose;
(6) setting an artificial timetable for the withdrawal of United States Armed Forces from Iraq, or immediately terminating their deployment in Iraq and redeploying them elsewhere in the region, is fundamentally inconsistent with achieving victory in Iraq;
(7) the House of Representatives recognizes and honors the tremendous sacrifices made by the members of the United States Armed Forces and their families, along with the members of Iraqi and Coalition forces; and
(8) the House of Representatives has unshakable confidence that, with the support of the American people and the Congress, United States Armed Forces, along with Iraqi and Coalition forces, shall achieve victory in Iraq.
