As we all know, subsequent to the introduction oI`the original draft of this resolution, military actions by the United States and Coalition forces have commenced in Iraq. As a result of the rapid and overwhelming success of these actions, Saddam Llussein and his oppressive regime have been defeated, and major combat operations in Iraq are already effectively over, according to official statements made yesterday morning by the Department of Defense. Indeed, some military units are already being re-deployed back to their home bases in the United States. Accordingly, with all due respect to our colleague and fellow Council Member, Bob Jacobson, it seems more appropriate to express our support and gratitude to our commander-in-chief and the U.S. and Coalition forces for their decisive leadership, multiple successes, and personal sacrifices while participating in Operation Iraqi Freedom. For these reasons, 1 respectfully request and thank you for your favorable consideration of the attached Drafr 2. JCThnm Attachment 2E~ s~.._~,3, D ~ Q Gomm. tvo.~1~-~'-.~r7j~ Ref. 1?d~s~'._' ¦ Ret.
