excerpts
from: Remarks
by the President at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museumby
Barack Obama, The White House website, 23 April 2012"Never
again" is a challenge to defend the fundamental right of free people
and free nations to exist in peace and security -- and that includes
the State of Israel. And on my visit to the old Warsaw
Ghetto, a woman looked me in the eye, and she wanted to make sure
America stood with Israel. She said, "It’s the only
Jewish state we have." And I made her a promise in that
solemn place. I said I will always be there for Israel.
So when efforts are made to equate Zionism to racism, we reject
them. When international fora single out Israel with unfair
resolutions, we vote against them. When attempts are made to
delegitimize the state of Israel, we oppose them. When faced
with a regime that threatens global security and denies the Holocaust
and threatens to destroy Israel, the United States will do everything
in our power to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. [...]
Three years ago today, I joined many of you for a ceremony of
remembrance at the U.S. Capitol. And I said that we had to do
"everything we can to prevent and end atrocities." And so I
want to report back to some of you today to let you know that as
President I’ve done my utmost to back up those words with
deeds. [...]
We recognize that, even as we do all we can, we cannot control every
event. And when innocents suffer, it tears at our
conscience. Elie [Wiesel] alluded to what we feel as we see
the Syrian people subjected to unspeakable violence, simply for
demanding their universal rights. [...]
And so with allies and partners, we will keep increasing the pressure,
with a diplomatic effort to further isolate Assad and his regime, so
that those who stick with Assad know that they are making a losing
bet. We’ll keep increasing sanctions to cut off the
regime from the money it needs to survive. We’ll
sustain a legal effort to document atrocities so killers face justice,
and a humanitarian effort to get relief and medicine to the Syrian
people. And we’ll keep working with the "Friends of
Syria" to increase support for the Syrian opposition as it grows
stronger.
Indeed, today we’re taking another step.
I’ve signed an executive order that authorizes new sanctions
against the Syrian government and Iran and those that abet them for
using technologies to monitor and track and target citizens for
violence. [...] And it’s one more step
that we can take toward the day that we know will come -- the end of
the Assad regime [...]
