When an 18-year-old Palestinian girl is persuaded to blow herself up, and in doing so she kills a 17-year-old Israeli girl, we are watching the future itself die!

War crimes will be prosecuted. War criminals will be punished. And it will be no defense to say, 'I was just following orders.'

My hope was that by saying clearly to Saddam Hussein, "we're going to enforce UN Resolutions," that he would make the decision to leave peaceably and at least allow for inspectors to come into his country, and if he chose not to, there would be a military option. I want people to understand that the military was my last option. I had a strategy and hopefully solving the problem peacefully - and it wasn't just me, it was a coalition of nations that were involved.

A good run adds a little bounce to my step. I get a certain amount of self-esteem from it.

I am very comfortable with the strategic decisions that I made.

I remember meeting a mother of a child who was abducted by the North Koreans right here in the Oval Office.

I understand I'm running against a person who is so anxious to become president, he will do whatever it takes.
