Text of a Letter from the President to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President Pro Tempore of the SenateYes, I do have to wonder why most people link 9/11 with Iraq!

President George W. Bush talks with New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg in the Oval Office Wednesday, March 19, 2003. Secretary of Homeland Security Tom Ridge, not pictured, also attended the meeting. The President discussed New York's security issues. White House photo by Eric Draper. Dear Mr. Speaker: (Dear Mr. President:)
Consistent with section 3(b) of the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002 (Public Law 107-243), and based on information available to me, including that in the enclosed document, I determine that:
(1) reliance by the United States on further diplomatic and other peaceful means alone will neither (A) adequately protect the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq nor (B) likely lead to enforcement of all relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions regarding Iraq; and
(2) acting pursuant to the Constitution and Public Law 107-243 is consistent with the United States and other countries continuing to take the necessary actions against international terrorists and terrorist organizations, including those nations, organizations, or persons who planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001.
Sincerely,
GEORGE W. BUSH
