The next administration needs to do better. The place to begin is with the candid recognition that the Global War on Terror has effectively ceased to exist.
-- Andrew Bacevich, professor of history and international relations at Boston University, in his article 'Expanding War, Contracting Meaning'

“More and more questions are being raised as to what is going on in Afghanistan. First and foremost, what is the acceptable price for losses among civilians in the ongoing anti-terrorist operation? Who decides on criteria for determining the proportionality of the use of force?
These and other factors give reasons to believe that the anti-terrorism coalition is in the face of crisis. Looking at the core of the problem, it seems that this coalition lacks collective arrangements - ie equality among all its members in decision-making on the strategy and, especially, operational tactics. It so happens that in order to control a totally new situation as it evolved after 9/11, instead of the required genuine cooperative effort, including a joint analysis and coordination of practical steps, the mechanisms designed for a unipolar world started to be used, where all decisions were to be taken in a single center while the rest were merely to follow. The solidarity of the international community fostered on the wave of struggle against terrorism turned out to be somehow "privatized"."
-- Sergei Lavrov, Russian foreign minister, at the annual United Nations General Assembly forum

[...]

Adm. Michael Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, recently remarked
2008-08-27
Success in Iraq has allowed us to continue the President's policy of return-on-success. We've reduced the length of combat tours from 15 months back down to 12. We've brought home all five of the combat brigades and the three Marine units who were sent into Iraq as part of the surge. Further troop movements will, as always, depend on what is happening on the ground.
-- Dick Cheney, USA Vice President, Remarks on the 90th National Convention of the American Legion
2008-08-27
Some years ago, abuses were committed at Abu Ghraib prison -- conduct that was not authorized and that did violate the law. When those abuses came to light, Americans were rightly outraged. Those who violated the law were arrested, prosecuted and punished, as justice demanded.
-- Dick Cheney, USA Vice President, Remarks on the 90th National Convention of the American Legion
2008-08-27
We expect all who serve America to conduct themselves with honor. And we enforce the rules.
-- Dick Cheney, USA Vice President, Remarks on the 90th National Convention of the American Legion
2008-08-27
No nation in the world takes human rights more seriously than the United States. The policies of our country comply with our law, which prohibits torture.
-- Dick Cheney, USA Vice President, Remarks on the 90th National Convention of the American Legion
