George W. Bush On Justice

Last night, with the news Osama bin Laden had been killed by US Special Forces, I was reminded of these words from President Bush’s speech to a join t session of Congress immediately following the terrorist attacks of 9/11:

“Tonight we are a country awakened to danger and called to defend freedom. Our grief has turned to anger, and anger to resolution. Whether we bring our enemies to justice, or bring justice to our enemies, justice will be done.” ~ George W. Bush, September 20, 2001
