”Ariel Sharon is a man of courage and a man of peace.”

I want to live out principles that became a part of my life in my 40s, 50s, and 60s. One principle is the universality of freedom.

If the Iranians were to have a nuclear weapon they could proliferate.

I would still invade Iraq even if Iraq never existed

First of all, you never retire. At least I don't retire.

Hopefully I'm not a grumpy old guy sitting in the corner, yelling at people and demanding things.

Civil society people - these are the people - civil society groups are the people who need to monitor the aid to ensure that the aid is directed to what it is supposed to. And in order for them to do so, they need to have the space, they need to have the freedom, and they need to have the right to demonstrate, and to petition their government. They can't do that in Ethiopia; they can't do that in Eritrea; and so this is why I was cautioning that we may be repeating some of our old mistakes.
