The judgment means a lot. As a journalist being accused of invading someone's privacy, there is always a risk that it will stick to your name.

I think when you start to get afraid, it's time to leave.

There is nothing I would change - to change it I would have had to write a totally different book.

Being a war correspondent, and having covered four wars, I know that wars very seldom solve things.

I was thinking, there are 5 million people, and I am just one of those 5 million. In the build-up to the war you see children playing in the street, and you think, ah, I'm going to be okay.

As the only woman, I was able to sit with the officers in front, with a glass of vodka in one hand and a cucumber in the other. That's how I went to my first war.

I believe the consequences of a war are so harsh that it should be always the last resort.
