"Unless they remove British troops immediately, something we all know that Tony Blair is not going to do, there is absolutely no hope, I'm afraid, for the British prisoner."

"...if you took out al-Zarqawi at this point, it's not going to matter terribly much. These are groups that have shown time and time again an outstanding capacity for regeneration. They're able to replace heads as soon as you cut them off."

"I was with a group of American journalists who last night only jokingly--but nonetheless tellingly--were talking about when the last helicopter leaves who's going to be on it."

I wonder how Tony Blair sleeps at night. He has refused to do anything for Kenneth Bigley.
