Saddam is a war criminal and there are no two people who can argue over this.

The U.S. will ignore the opinion of the Iraqi people and it will compose the new government according to its own desires.

I will deal with the politicians in a political way and with the nonpoliticians in a nonpolitical way.

If the government fails to listen to your demands, then you will decide what is best for you.

Do not betray the people.

I will continue to defend Najaf as it is the holiest place. I will remain in the city until the last drop of my blood has been spilled.

We do not kill an Iraqi.
