On the significance of the fight for Iraq:
There is a lot at stake here. There are people who, if given the opportunity...will use Iraq as a platform to conduct attacks against the United States. They have done it in the past–they have attacked the World Trade Center twice, bombed American embassies, taken diplomats hostage. If we walk away before Iraq has the [ability to] keep terrorism from being fomented, trained, and exported, we put our future at risk.
