I love my country more than anything. I spent 12 years in the United States Marine Corps. I know what it means to defend this country.
I can train a monkey to wave an American flag. That does not make the monkey patriotic.
I really am tired of all the Clinton Democrats running around getting all-sanctimonious over Iraq. It was them who killed 1.5 to 2.2 million Iraqis through sanctions. Sanctions that Madeline Albright, their illustrious Secretary of State, when confronted with the fact of 500,000 dead Iraqi children, said it was a price she was willing to pay.
That we have collectively failed to halt and repudiate the war in Iraq makes us even worse than the Germans.
I'm someone who believes the truth needs to be heard. And if I'm empowered with the truth, I'm not going to shut up.
War is not some sort of Nintendo video game.
The U.S. has perverted the U.N. weapons process by using it as a tool to justify military actions, falsely so. ... The U.S. was using the inspection process as a trigger for war.
I've been called a spy of Israel since 1996, and since I made my documentary film in 2000 the FBI has investigated me as an agent of Iraq. The FBI has also opened up an investigation into my wife calling her a KGB spy.
Weapons of mass destruction aren't pulled out of a black hat like a white rabbit at a magic show. They're produced in factories. There's science and technology involved. They're not produced in a hole in the ground or in a basement.
If people don't like the history, I'm sorry.
One, if you attack my integrity, I will defend myself. If you attack my patriotism, I will defend myself. If you come after my family, I will counter-attack viciously, I will destroy you.
The United States is the laughingstock of the world.
While we were never able to provide 100 percent certainty regarding the disposition of Iraq's proscribed weaponry, we did ascertain a 90-95 percent level of verified disarmament. This figure takes into account the destruction or dismantling of every major factory associated with prohibited weapons manufacture, all significant items of production equipment, and the majority of the weapons and agent produced by Iraq.
When I resigned, I put the U.S. Government on notice that I'm going to stick to policy issues, that I have no intention of going out and blowing the cover off of the intelligence operations, that those are truly sensitive and they should not be exposed.
I'd like to think that the best bunker buster is a diplomat.
History will eventually depict as legitimate the efforts of the Iraqi resistance to destabilise and defeat the American occupation forces and their imposed Iraqi collaborationist government.
If you want to play the game of truth, I'll tell the truth, and the truth will burn.
We say that we care about the war, but we don't even really know what we're fighting for.
The only way an Iraqi biological agent would kill you is if it landed on your head.
The Iraqi people are some of the warmest people you'll meet in your life. They are extremely receptive to strangers. Their hospitality is immense.
I didn't promote war when I was a weapons inspector.
Iraq has not been disarmed 100 percent [but] in terms of what they [Iraqis] have accomplished there are no meaningful weapons or weapons production capability in Iraq today.
It has been estimated that 80 percent of the oil illegally smuggled out of Iraq under oil for food ended up in the United States.
There has been no case made - based on anything other than speculation - that Iraq poses a threat.
[Operation] Rockingham was spinning reports and emphasizing reports that showed non-compliance (by Iraq with UN inspections) and quashing those which showed compliance. It was cherry-picking intelligence.
