On the October 3, 2004, episode of ABC’s This Week, National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice spoke of the decision to invade Iraq: ” ‘Not everyone liked the fact that we and others in the coalition believed that it was time to go to war. But sometimes you have to do what is right. You cannot wait for unanimous consent. If you waited for unanimous consent, you’d never do anything in the international community.’ ”
