Or as important as actions.

Yes, like I rejected the USA when they gone to war against Iraqi
claiming there were doing that against terrorism and for massive
destruction weapons.

If they had said "well, Saddam Hussein is an horrible dictator that we 
helped for more than 15 years but we now admit that it was a mistake,
and we want to help this area to recover some autonomy but putting
this criminal in jail", things would have been surely different.
(You can replace Saddam Hussein by Ousama Bin Laden, it works too)

Because how you _call_ things is something you _do_. Talking is an
action, and how you describe your work have a direct impact on your
work.
