An attack on Iraq at this time would seriously jeopardize, if not destroy, the global counterterrorist campaign we have undertaken,

The policy of detente with the Soviet Union, which was begun by President Nixon in 1972, was broadly seen by 1975 in bad shape, if not in tatters. In other words, were able to take advantage of the relaxed atmosphere to pursue the same goals they had.

A number of presidents since Nixon have come to office with negative views of the Chinese. They always end up supporting the thrust of the policy established by President Nixon.

Simply killing everyone who is already a terrorist today won't solve the problem.

My point was that removing Saddam should not have been our highest priority. Fighting terrorism should have been our number one concern, followed by the Palestinian peace process.

We must find out where the roots of terrorism lie.

The UN could help the Iraqi government get on its feet and help the United States withdraw a bit more.

So far the changes in the president in his second term have been mainly of a rhetorical nature.

Only very gradually did we understand that we - like any other country - have clearly defined national interests.

To sum up, the position we took was that since we didn't know the internal situation in Iraq nor Saddam Hussein, that our best bet was to take counsel from the people who did know him and who did deal with him.

But, if you believe we should go around the world overturning regimes to make little United States, I don't agree with that, because I don't think we're capable of doing that.

If Iraq were to descend into chaos, the Europeans would feel the effects just as much as we would.

But figuring out Saddam Hussein was one our greatest mysteries. He marched to his own drummer and frequently as this unfolded he made decisions which were sometimes inexplicable to us and sometimes didn't look very smart.

The Iraqis need help establishing a government. We have to provide them with security.

But the central point is that any campaign against Iraq, whatever the strategy, cost and risks, is certain to divert us for some indefinite period from our war on terrorism.
