Democratic power is the only voice most citizens have.

It's true that the war in Iraq opened a distance in relations between part of Europe and the U.S. government, but our basic ties are stronger than that. We share democracy, free markets and a commitment to Western security. We differ on how to guarantee that security.

The economic, social and cultural progress of a nation depends on citizens counting for more and having more rights.

The corporations and the media don't need power; they already have it.

Any peace process after so many years of horror and terror will be long and difficult.

My commitment is my commitment.

You can't bomb a people just in case.
