Life without Liberty is far worse than death.

No foreigner has a place asking another people, another country, to change their constitution.

If it is terrorism, if it is war on terror, then the Afghan people will join you on terror.

I hope (the United States) will change and they will now focus entirely on helping and building a stronger, better Afghanistan.

If the United States is treating Afghanistan as a sovereign country it has to prove it.

Once the Afghan people vote and they choose their President with direct, secret ballot from all over the country, there will be a lot of difference in this country and a lot of legitimate power to flow with implementation.

Afghanistan will, by the grace of God, stand on its own feet in three to four years time. Until then, of course, we need strong support from the international community, including the United States, to stay with us and support us fully.
