Iraq will drive American agenda for a long time because Iraq policy has so damaged America in the Middle East region, left us isolated. We are there now by brute strength, we are not there because we are desired.
JESSE JACKSON
You may not be responsible for being down, but you must be responsible for getting up.
![Jesse Jackson Quote - When we were hit on 9/11 it took us a few weeks to get the coalition together because [George] Bush had come in with a kind of narrow ideology, looking at the world, I’d say, through a keyhole and not through a door.](https://minimalistquotes.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/when-we-were-hit-on-9-11-it-took-us-a-few-weeks-to-683x1024.jpg)
