It seems to me that it wouldn't be that hard to tell.

First of all, do we agree that this was not an intentional shootdown of this airline? Does everyone agree to that?

Well, I want to thank all of our witnesses. We have as not as broad a range of opinion as I would have liked to have had, although we have differences of opinion in the panel.

It is a tragedy that it took the shooting down of a civilian airliner over Ukraine to force the international community to confront Russian aggression.

The international community should respect Ukraine's right to decide with whom to associate politically and economically.

The international community should follow the individual travel bans and asset freezes with harsh economic sanctions on entire sectors of the Russian economy.

The international community, led by the United States, should provide Ukraine with the means to eliminate the separatist forces in their country.

The tragedy is Russian responsibility.

Stronger economic sanctions against Russia are in order.

The West needs a comprehensive strategy, targeted at persuading Putin to remove his forces from Ukraine.

If the pending decisions by the United States and the EU are a continuation of past hesitancy and incrementalism, they risk leading to a stalemate in Ukraine.

U.S. policy appears to have been shaped more by the lowest common denominator of what our allies are willing to do rather than by initiative and decisive action on the part of Washington.

The MH-17 shootdown should prompt us to carefully assess the effectiveness of the West's response to these provocative acts of aggression.

So I ask the question: Is there not one bold Churchill to be found among the overpopulated, boastful Chamberlains among the world leaders?

They wanted that. They don't know our answer on that.

It is important that we do what we can to help the Ukrainian nation keep its sovereignty.

Appeasement certainly doesn't seem to be working, doesn't seemed to have stopped the aggression.

Only under the pressure, that kind of pressure, is he likely to choose peace and finally allow the Ukrainian people to achieve the security, prosperity, and freedom they have so long sought.

Mr. Modi is a breath of fresh air.

If there is any chance for prosperity, if there is any chance for peace and stability in large sections of this world, it will be due to a cooperative spirit and a positive relationship with India.

Let us now judge them as they build their democratic society and judge them based on how they do with this things like this.

It might be in our moral interest as well as our interest of having other people trust us in the future just to take them into the United States as refugees.

The Kurds have always deserved to have their own national identity, and until we do I happen to believe that no kind of leadership that we could put into place in Iraq is going to be successful.

Let me just say that as far as I am concerned, the United States should not be having to limit itself and limit what solutions we can possibly have based on what the British Empire determined 100 years ago.

I will accept that we cannot just blame Maliki himself, but he has not provided the leadership that would be necessary to overcome what could be inherent problems with having a country called Iraq made up of that territory and those…
