From Wikiquote

"Today we are engaged in a deadly global struggle for those who would intimidate, torture, and murder people for exercising the most basic freedoms. If we are to win this struggle and spread those freedoms, we must keep our own moral compass pointed in a true direction." – Barack Obama

Simple: Today we are fighting to help people who are intimidated, tortured, and murdered for exercising their basic rights. If we are going to win this fight then we must also be a moral country.
