Quotations

"Why the pretence of 'making the world a safer place' when we all know an unjust war will incite such hatred that new recruits will be queueing up to join al-Qa'eda?" (Telegraph, April 2, 2003)

"There comes a moment when you have to ask what is more dangerous, terrorism or counterterrorism. . . Afghanistan is still the worst place in the world for women to live. . . So by any standards, our mission in Afghanistan has failed." (AFP, Oct. 10, 2011; 2011 photo Wikipedia)
