The Mothers in Iraq Call Us the Terrorists

As all of our lives become digital, the logic of encryption is all of our lives will be covered by strong encryption, and therefore all of our lives - including the lives of criminals and terrorists and spies - will be in a place that is utterly unavailable to court-ordered process. And that, I think, to a democracy should be very, very concerning.

the geographic base of the terrorists who have had us under assault now for many years, but most especially on 9/11.

The Dome is a metaphor that could mean anything - it could be nuclear fallout, terrorists - I've always been fascinated with stories where people's roles are flipped on their heads, be it the Wall Street guy, the techno guy, etc. All of those things are only successful when there are people and money around.

The document expresses great concern about our efforts to hand over sovereignty to the Iraqis. In fact, it explicitly says that once Iraqis are in control of their government, it will make it virtually impossible for the foreign terrorists to operate.

The elections went well because the Iraqi people have an overwhelming desire to vote. The unions of people are stronger than the handful of terrorists. And the terrorists threw everything they had into this fray, and they lost.

And I believe only with a strong America will we defeat this radical group, this apocalyptic group called ISIS. That's why when I'm president we are going to rebuild our intelligence capabilities. And they're going to tell us where the terrorists are. And a rebuilt U.S. military is going to destroy these terrorists.

A guest worker program would be an open invitation to potential terrorists. They could enter the country legally, get a job, and use the program as cover. One of the terrorists who blew up the garage of the World Trade Center in 1993 did just that under an earlier program.

The challenge of predicting terrorism is that unlike fraud, we don't have the same volume of historical data to learn from. Compounding this is the fact that terrorists are constantly changing their methods and do their best to avoid leaving any digital footprints in the first place.

The CIA has acknowledged that it has detained about 100 terrorists since 9/11, and about a third of them have been subjected to what the CIA refers to as 'enhanced interrogation tactics,' and only a small proportion of those have in fact been subjected to the most serious types of enhanced procedures.

The Iraqis have succeeded in drafting this constitution despite the action of terrorists who are trying to destroy the country's desire for a peaceful future,

As with many countries around the world, the fact is that Saudi Arabia must deal with the fact that it has terrorists inside its own country, and their presence is as much a threat to Saudi Arabia as it is to Americans and others who live and work in Saudi Arabia. These bombs kill not just Americans, but Saudis as well.

Egypt needs law and order in Sinai to save the tourist industry in Sharm el-Sheik and prevent the area from becoming a base for terrorists that will target Egypt itself, as well as Jordan and Israel.

As Americans after 9/11, we're much more united, together as a nation, and we got stronger, better, and more at peace. By peace, I mean the harmony you can feel in our united determination to fight these terrorists and killers.

There was no specific intelligence inputs on this attack -- the terrorists keep their operation top secret or else there will be no attack at all.

They overlook a fundamental fact, ... We were not in Iraq on Sept. 11, 2001, and the terrorists hit us anyway.

They are people who feel devalued, despised and by becoming terrorists they suddenly become supermen, heroes.

We understand that conceding to terrorists will only endanger all members of the multinational force as well as other countries who are contributing to Iraqi reconstruction and humanitarian assistance.

we will never surrender to the terrorists who despise democracy and distort religion. Never.

We will not permit a brutal dictator with ties to terrorists and a record of reckless aggression to dominate the Middle East and to threaten the United States of America.

We expect not really words of consolation from the Palestinian Authority and from its leader. What we expect is action. We expect action to apprehend these terrorists and their leaders. We expect action to collect the explosives and weapons that are there in the field and can be collected.

We insist on these commissions finding and naming the officials responsible for the negligence that occurred. We want the whole world to learn the truth about this crime and we want the guilty to be punished. Not just the terrorists but also the officials.

It is up to Democrats to get things right in Iraq so we can refocus our military efforts to fighting terrorists around the world who want to harm us.

It is paramount to the security of our aviation system that terrorists not be able to know with certainty what screening procedures they will encounter at airports around the nation. By incorporating unpredictability into our procedures and eliminating low-threat items, we can better focus our efforts on stopping individuals who wish to do us harm.

It will help curb identity fraud and possible misuse by people smugglers, terrorists and other transnational criminals.

This was part of our normal procedures and not as a result of demands from terrorists or criminals. We do not negotiate with terrorists or criminals.

We cannot get into a situation, and I believe the family understand this, where we start bargaining with terrorists and kidnappers, because if we were to, we would not make Iraq or anywhere else safer,

We cannot have a time when those of us who are protesting current policies are going to be compared to terrorists or their values. We have to stand up now before we have a period of silencing all meaningful discussion in our country.

It may well be that we have opportunists in the United States or terrorists in the United States who are acting in ways that are unrelated.

This is the same studio, Twentieth Century Fox, that showed Arab-Muslim terrorists as vermin in a movie called 'True Lies' with Arnold Schwarzenegger in 1994.

This is war. And we will do everything in our power together to make sure that terrorists never, ever again can create this mayhem, this chaos, this violence against our people and our country.

The relevance for 9/11 is that what 9/11 marked was the beginning of a struggle in which the terrorists come at us and strike us here on our home territory. And it's a global operation. It doesn't know national boundaries or national borders.

This is a very sad day for the Blackwater family, ... We lost a number of our friends to attacks by terrorists in Iraq, and our thoughts and prayers go out to their family members.

They're going to have to realize, if we pull out of Iraq, if we let those people sort it out on their own, the terrorists have won, and soon they're going to be over here.

I am not disputing the need for this money. What I am disputing and calling attention to is the fact that we are taking the tab for defense in our time against terrorists in the Middle East and elsewhere and shoving this tab off onto our children.

I am absolutely shocked to read in the paper this morning the terrorists just got their visas yesterday. I, for the life of me, can't understand how something like that can happen,

I confirm that 12 terrorists were killed by our forces, and some others managed to escape.

How many young people are being taught to go out as suicide bombers and kill people? ... How does that inflow of terrorists in the world get reduced so that the number of people being captured or killed is greater than the ones being produced?

I applaud the Indonesian government's determination to defeat the terrorists and I offer our full support to the people of Bali as they recover from another atrocity so soon after the 2002 attack,

I do think there's been progress in some areas. In the last four years, for example, I think the world has become a tougher place for terrorists to operate in.

I doubt the terrorists saw 9/11 as a teaching opportunity. And we're not really a culture geared to anything as humble as 'learning.' But I was disappointed in how quickly everyone wanted to get back to normal. It was as if we watched terrorism on TV for a while, then got bored and turned back to 'American Idol.'

I don't think that we should let it get in the way because that's exactly what the terrorists want to see, is us afraid,

I do not - I never believed it's better to kill a terrorist than to detain him. We want to detain as many terrorists as possible so we can elicit the intelligence from them in the appropriate manner so that we can disrupt follow-on terrorist attacks.

I do believe it's a lot more flexible, but it ought to be done and done right, ... Often times we have to dig down and deal with terrorists or would-be terrorists, someone probably as bad as these people.

He came with a one-point agenda of Kashmir and ... (to) call terrorists 'freedom fighters', ... All this was not acceptable to us.

Hollywood gave us far more Muslim terrorists in the Eighties and Nineties than it has since 9/11.

America received a call to arms Sept. 11 when terrorists hit the heart of America,

America's best defense against terrorists trying to sneak into our country is to trust the good hearts and the good sense of American citizens.

America will not run in defeat, and we will not forget our responsibilities. We have brought down two murderous regimes. We're driving terrorists from their sanctuaries. We're putting the terrorists on the run all across the world.

The longer Iraq's leaders delay in forming a unity government, the greater the risk that the terrorists and former regime elements will succeed in their efforts to foment division and to stop the progress of an Iraq democracy.

I was distressed that after 9/11, when the United States was attacked by terrorists, the United States' response was to attack Afghanistan, where some of the terrorists had been.
