Bush and Blair combined their efforts to deceive both nations in a carefully coordinated manner, more so than anyone is willing to point out in the media. |
Those who suffer are not those at the top, but are the less privileged members of society. |
Today, we talk a lot about terrorism, but we rarely talk about state terrorism. |
The killing of innocent people is always wrong. |
The Sandinista revolution was without any question a popular insurrection. |
I believe President Bush is one of the most dangerous leaders in the world. He is not in search of peaceful and diplomatic solutions. |
People in the U.K. cannot understand whether Blair has lost his mind or whether his ambition to be the second-most-powerful man in the world made him lose his mind. |
The mere fact of an American being present could help save the lives of innocent people. That's why I believe in the importance of bearing witness, to become a voice for the voiceless. |
I am closer to a European viewpoint of the world than an American one. My ethics and ideals are based on European concepts. |

In Nicaragua, liberty, equality and the rule of law were the stuff of dreams. But in Paris I discovered the value of those words. |
The British Red Cross asked me to help them spearhead a fundraising campaign for the victims of the war in Nicaragua. It was a turning point in my life. It began my commitment to justice and human rights issues. |
I find it disturbing that the media keeps referring to my marriage, since I got divorced in 1979. But the media never wants to let me forget. |
I feel great identification with the developing world. |
Live interviews are more difficult to distort. |
There is a question for which we will never know the answer: had the U.S. not launched the Contra war to overthrow the Sandinista government, would they have succeeded in bringing socioeconomic justice to the people of Nicaragua? |
George W. Bush and Tony Blair had to convince the world that Saddam Hussein represented an imminent threat. Tony Blair lied when he claimed that Iraq could launch a chemical or biological attack within 45 minutes. |
