 Part of winning the hearts and minds of the Iraqi people is some tangible improvement in their quality of life. An essential way of doing that is increasing petroleum production and using some of that money to get the electricity on. In both cases, they seem to be doing just enough to keep things from getting worse. They do not seem to have a plan for victory on this front. They seem to have a plan for stalemate. |
| Possibly, in a post-Sept. 11 environment, we do need to think about restricting the availability of information that would be useful to terrorists. But if we're going to do it for online satellite imagery, there are a lot of other sources of similar information that we're going to have to try to restrict as well. |
| Private companies are in business to make money, |

| The plan all along was to burn through the Guard and Reserve as a stopgap measure, [since] the fall of 2003, when it finally started to sink in that [Army leaders] had a long war on their hands. |
| The problem for the enemy is that computer security vulnerabilities will almost certainly prove fleeting and unpredictable, |
| The problem with the current conflict is that when our people get captured, they get their heads chopped off. |
| The single, self-forging fragment hits the target at a high velocity, |
| The sort of evidence you're going to be able to gather is not going to be courtroom quality evidence. |
| The story most people around the world have is that the Americans are up to their old tricks - committing atrocities and lying about it. And that's completely incorrect. |
