They just got a different tool to use than we do: They kill innocent lives to achieve objectives. That's what they do. And they're good. They get on the TV screens and they get people to ask questions about, well, you know, this, that or the other. I mean, they're able to kind of say to people: Don't come and bother us, because we will kill you. Bush - Joint News Conference with Blair - 28 July '06

Eyeballing the US Embassy in Baghdad


A portion of the new U.S. embassy under construction is seen from across the Tigris
river in Baghdad, Saturday, May 19, 2007. The new $592 million embassy occupies
a chunk of prime Baghdad real estate two-thirds the size of Washington's National Mall,
with desk space for about 1,000 people behind high, blast-resistant walls. The compound
is a symbol both of how much the United States has invested in Iraq and how the
circumstances of U.S. involvement are changing. (AP Photo)
