The use of military force against Iran would be very dangerous. It would be very provocative. The only thing worse would be Iran being a nuclear power.

Rudy Giuliani I think they are paying a lot more attention to news now, by the way, in part because of national-security issues. A lot of young people have friends or family in the military today. Tom Brokaw When an aggressor force continually launches attacks from a particular base of operations, it is sound military strategy to take the flight to the enemy. Timothy McVeigh Always expect the unexpected. Right around Thanksgiving, when the new Alex Cross will be out. It's called Four Blind Mice and it's a pretty amazing story about several murders inside the military. James Patterson A military man can scarcely pride himself on having smitten a sleeping enemy; it is more a matter of shame, simply, for the one smitten. Isoroku Yamamoto Military leaders aren't made. They are born. To be a good leader, you have to have something in your character to cause people to follow you. Jimmy Johnson Inasmuch as society cannot go on without discipline of some kind, men were constrained, in the absence of any other form of discipline, to turn to discipline of the military type. Irving Babbitt The chains of military despotism, once fastened upon a nation, ages might pass away before they could be shaken off. William Henry Harrison I played the organ when I went to military school, when I was 10. They had a huge organ, the second-largest pipe organ in New York State. I loved all the buttons and the gadgets. I've always been a gadget man. Stephen Sondheim Military hardliners called me a 'security threat' for promoting peace in South Asia and for supporting a broad-based government in Afghanistan. Benazir Bhutto The military wants a system that protects its policies and privileges. Benazir Bhutto The military destabilised my government on politically motivated charges. Benazir Bhutto I'm against the draft. I believe we should have a professional military; it might be smaller, but it would be more effective. Jesse Ventura My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of the higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military. Smedley Butler Even military ministers have no more than a certain amount of control. It is customary that they have the right and the power to participate, from a political and military point of view, in the planning of actual operations. Hideki Tojo Therefore, if one were to consider that there was virtually no possibility of success through the US-Japan negotiations, the military and economic pressures would only force Japan into further crisis if time were allowed to pass in vain. Hideki Tojo I think you also understand that one of the key things that's got to be done in Iraq is to build a mentality of understanding that the military needs to be subordinate to civilian control and respectful of its own people. John Abizaid Well, the reports are correct that we're conducting very robust military operations on the Afghan side of the border in areas where we think al-Qaida is operating and Taliban remnants are. John Abizaid You know as well as I do that counterinsurgency is a very nuanced type of military operation. John Abizaid We citizens don't need to know every detail of every military operation in this new kind of war. Nor should the media tell us and hence our enemy. David Hackworth |
