“Bradley Manning is an American hero.”

The Sandinista revolution was without any question a popular insurrection.

People in so many countries look up to the United States as a model of democracy, but I doubt if that can continue. It leaves me with a great sense of loss.

I believe President Bush is one of the most dangerous leaders in the world. He is not in search of peaceful and diplomatic solutions.

I am closer to a European viewpoint of the world than an American one. My ethics and ideals are based on European concepts.

We need to defend our principles and values, human rights, civil liberties and the rule of international law. If we don’t our world will further descend into a state of chaos.

People in the U.K. cannot understand whether Blair has lost his mind or whether his ambition to be the second-most-powerful man in the world made him lose his mind.

I didn’t want to be discriminated against because of my gender and status. I promised myself I was never going to be treated as a second-class citizen.

A man who gets divorced is not forever going to be talked about for it. There are very different standards that we have for women than we have for men.

I don’t want to wear what every other women wears. I won’t be dictated to.

Today, we talk a lot about terrorism, but we rarely talk about state terrorism.

George W. Bush and Tony Blair had to convince the world that Saddam Hussein represented an imminent threat. Tony Blair lied when he claimed that Iraq could launch a chemical or biological attack within 45 minutes.

Live interviews are more difficult to distort.

During the first 10 years of my life, while my parents were married, I enjoyed a privileged upbringing. After their divorce, my life was difficult.

I often traveled to Nicaragua to speak against repressive policies by the Sandinista government.

I feel great identification with the developing world.

I don’t believe in lobbying only progressives and liberal members of Congress. I don’t believe in doing interviews only with those who share my views. I want to reach a wider audience.
