Did bin Laden act alone, through his own al-Qaida network, in launching the attacks? About that I'm far more certain and emphatic: no.

It seems to me it's always the evil we refuse to see that does us the greatest harm.

Bethlehem was God with us, Calvary was God for us, and Pentecost is God in us.

I take my own experience and other assassinations through history and get a lot into the drone program, which doesn't work, as well.

I truly believe that if torture had worked and there was a case to be made for it, we would see that on the front pages of the American press.

I don't trust American intelligence. You look at the torture report from the Senate: People inside the CIA are saying that it doesn't work, and we're getting the information not from torture, but simply from questioning people.

If you want prisoners to be tortured, you send them to Syria. If you want someone to disappear – never to see them again – you send them to Egypt.
