The question really is how do we get Embassy Officers into the minds of the American business community. That is a much more difficult task than understanding a statistical matrix.

My own view of this, by the way, is, if the war on terrorism is successful over time, in its own way it's going to box Saddam in in a way that's going to make it much more difficult for him to maintain his power, and that he's going to become increasingly isolated. I think that's going to take time.

I think what he's - what he believes, and he may be correct, I don't know, that we have some intelligence information that leads us to know some things about what's going on in Iraq that we haven't revealed to others.

The consequence of a world full of nuclear powers to me is so incomprehensible in terms of the dangers that that implies.

There is a natural partnership between State and Commerce, and the American business community to work together to educate the United States about marketing overseas.

In the best of all worlds everyone in the Embassy is doing something to assist U.S. exports.
