Madam Speaker, if we are to have success in the war against terrorism, it must be multilateral in nature. What seems to be clear is that the more unilateral the action taken by the United States, the fewer countries there will be fighting the war on terror.
We were all horrified by 9/11 and I imagine most of us are still horrified by what happened then. The point the Prime Minister was making is not too dissimilar from the point I made in the House last October. There are root causes that breed fanatics, not the leaders such as bin Laden who is wealthy and psychotic, but the foot soldiers. The more there are failed states in the world, the more there are people living in misery and the more people for bin Laden to manipulate. That is important and that is what the Prime Minister, in fairness, was addressing.
