6. Yes, he did say that
And he makes a point of noting the wars that he did support, and he limits his opposition to war to this particular war.

Personally, I would have reservations about voting for a president who would completely rule out the prospect of using force anywhere. We never know when and where we are going to need to use force. If we get attacked and the people responsible are in North Korea or Iran and their governments won't turn them in, then I would support going in the same way we went into Afghanistan when they harbored the Taliban. It is foolish to rule out using force anywhere before becoming president, because you never know when and where we will need to use it.
