The suicide bombings have increased. There's too many of them.

We have learned that terrorist attacks are not caused by the use of strength; they are invited by the perception of weakness. And the surest way to avoid attacks on our own people is to engage the enemy where he lives and plans. We are fighting that enemy in Iraq and Afghanistan today so that we do not meet him again on our own streets, in our own cities.

The lesson of September the 11th is: Take threats before they fully materialize.

God told me to smite Osama bin Laden, so I invaded Afghanistan. Then He told me to smite Saddam Hussein, so I invaded Iraq. Now He wants me to work on the Middle East problem.

I suspect people are going to vote for Max Burns because they know him as local boy who's got - share their values.

The United States of America will never be intimidated by thugs and assassins. The killers will fail, and the Iraqi people will live in freedom.

God told me to strike at al Qaeda and I struck them; then he instructed me to strike at Saddam, which I did.
