Thank you, Intermodal, for bringing this quote to my attention!
 
«Speaking to the American Bar Association in July 1985, the President characterized terrorism as “an act of war” and declared: “There can be no place on earth left where it is safe for these monsters to rest, to train, or practice their cruel and deadly skills. We must act together, or unilaterally, if necessary to ensure that terrorists have no sanctuary — anywhere.” The air strikes against Libya were one manifestation of this strategy.» – The 9/11 Commission Report
