Some have argued that confronting the threat from Iraq could detract from the war against terror. To the contrary, confronting the threat posed by Iraq is crucial to winning the war on terror.
George W. BushThe western mantra is that Israel seeks negotiations without preconditions, while the Palestinians refuse. The opposite is more accurate.
Noam ChomskyAs far as U.S. intelligence knows, Iran is developing nuclear capacities, but they don’t know if they are trying to develop nuclear weapons or not. Chances are they’re developing what’s called ‚nuclear capability,‘ which many states have. That is the ability to have nuclear weapons if they decide to do it. That’s not a crime.
Noam ChomskyWhen I was elected President nobody asked me to negotiate between Israel and Egypt. It was not even a question raised in my campaign. But I felt that one of the reasons that I was elected President was to try to bring peace to the Holy Land.

Mr. TIt is true greatness to have in one the frailty of a man and the security of a god.

Joe BidenNinety percent of the cases of polio are in security-vulnerable areas.
Bill GatesAll of us have been trained by education and environment to seek personal gain and security and to fight for ourselves. Though we cover it over with pleasant phrases, we have been educated for various professions within a system which is based on exploitation and acquisitive fear.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiFreedom conceives that the mind and spirit of man can be free only if he be free to pattern his own life, to develop his own talents, free to earn, to spend, to save, to acquire property as the security of his old age and his family.
Herbert HooverThe equal right of all citizens to health, education, work, food, security, culture, science, and wellbeing – that is, the same rights we proclaimed when we began our struggle, in addition to those which emerge from our dreams of justice and equality for all inhabitants of our world – is what I wish for all.
Fidel CastroIn Egypt, on the eve of Tahrir Square, there was a major poll which found that overwhelmingly – 80-90%, numbers like that – Egyptians regarded the main threats they face as the U.S. and Israel. They don’t like Iran – Arabs generally don’t like Iran – but they didn’t consider it a threat.

William Makepeace ThackerayWhat is the one country in the Middle East that has not been attacked by ISIS? One. That is Iran. That is more than happenstance, I’m sure.
Jim MattisSecurity is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
Helen KellerThat’s what I do this for, to secure my family’s future. I don’t care about anything else. I’m able to spoil people, and that’s the best thing.

John F. KennedyI had faith in Israel before it was established, I have in it now. I believe it has a glorious future before it – not just another sovereign nation, but as an embodiment of the great ideals of our civilization.

George W. BushThe global importance of the Middle East is that it keeps the Far East and the Near East from encroaching on each other.
Dan QuayleStability is when the U.K. and U.S. invade a country and impose the regime of their choice.
Noam ChomskyThere has come into being a kind of a Shia belt from Tehran through Baghdad to Beirut. And this gives Iran the opportunity to reconstruct the ancient Persian Empire – this time under the Shia label.
Henry KissingerIt is much more secure to be feared than to be loved.
Niccolo MachiavelliThe purposes of the United States should not be doubted. The Security Council resolutions will be enforced – the just demands of peace and security will be met – or action will be unavoidable. And a regime that has lost its legitimacy will also lose its power.
Colin PowellPakistan will never be able to match the Indian militarily, and the effort to do so is taking an immense toll on the society.
Noam ChomskyToday, India is a nuclear weapons state.
A. P. J. Abdul KalamIt’s overwhelmingly in the self-interest of the United States of America to have a secure, democratic friend, a strategic partner like Israel.
Joe BidenThey who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin FranklinI have spoken about inflation, unemployment, farmers‘ problems, security, etc. I keep talking about these issues. I seek answers from the Indian government.
Narendra ModiWe will bankrupt ourselves in the vain search for absolute security.
Dwight D. EisenhowerOur growing softness, our increasing lack of physical fitness, is a menace to our security.

Noam ChomskyFreedom of opinion can only exist when the government thinks itself secure.
Bertrand RussellNo Government can be long secure without a formidable Opposition.

Fidel CastroFrom the U.S. point of view, negotiations are, in effect, a way for Israel to continue its policies of systematically taking over whatever it wants in the West Bank, maintaining the brutal siege on Gaza, separating Gaza from the West Bank and, of course, occupying the Syrian Golan heights, all with full U.S. support.
Noam ChomskyI am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.
Douglas MacArthurWe spend our time searching for security and hate it when we get it.
John SteinbeckMy doorman is more important to me than any head of any company. He keeps us safe.

Jimmy CarterIsrael will not tolerate Iran developing nuclear power, even if Iran claims it is for peaceful purposes. If there is an attack, oil prices will go through the roof.
Robert KiyosakiIf anyone is crazy enough to want to kill a president of the United States, he can do it. All he must be prepared to do is give his life for the president’s.
John F. KennedyThe government of Israel doesn’t like the kinds of things I say, which puts them into the same category as every other government in the world.
Noam ChomskyThe threat and use of violence is stimulating nuclear proliferation along with jihadi terrorism.
Noam ChomskyIsrael is following policies which maximise its security threats… policies which choose expansion over security… policies which lead to their moral degradation, their isolation, their delegitimation, as they call it now, and very likely ultimate destruction. That’s not impossible.
Noam ChomskyThe Bush Administration’s failure to be consistently involved in helping Israel achieve peace with the Palestinians has been both wrong for our friendship with Israel, as well as badly damaging to our standing in the Arab world.
