Frederick Forsyth Quotes
It could well be argued that the continuing rights abuses of the present Iraqi regime, if it is allowed to survive, will prove most distressing. This is beyond any doubt.

It is simply not possible for the United States to impose humanity on a worldwide scale unless it is prepared to enter into permanent global war.
