              AMERICA WILL PREVAIL IN BATTLE AGAINST EVIL

  (Mr. KINGSTON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. KINGSTON. Mr. Speaker, America will never get used to terrorism. 
America will never tolerate terrorism. And neither should the world. 
That is why the United States of America on this Sunday made a very 
critical decision and action in striking out against the Taliban for 
harboring terrorists. This war is not the West versus Islam as 
suggested by Osama bin Laden. Rather, it is one of good versus evil and 
the West versus Osama bin Laden and his small, fanatical band of 
followers. It is a battle of good against evil because only evil would 
attack innocent people in their workplace. Yet in this job in front of 
us that we did not ask for, we will, in the words of the President, 
prevail. We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail.
  America is going to make the world safe again, along with all of our 
very many international allies. I salute the Armed Services, the 
President of the United States and all those who are in authority. May 
God bless America.
