Political Quotes

“Cuba is currently one of the nations listed by the State Department as a state sponsor of terrorism. They are in good company: Iraq, North Korea, Iran, Syria, Libya, and the Sudan. Until the State Department removes Cuba from this list of state sponsors of terrorism, the U.S. Government should not permit the private financing of agricultural sales to prop up that regime. That is essentially what Senator Torricelli and I are talking about. If the President certifies that Cuba has stopped sponsoring terrorism or that American fugitives who are hiding in Cuba who committed atrocious crimes--some of the crimes in the home State of Senator Torricelli from New Jersey--they ought to be returned. That is the gist of the amendments. I remind my colleagues what President Bush said: Every nation in every region has a decision to make. Either you are with us or you are with the terrorists. From this day forward, any nation that continues to harbor or support terrorism will be regarded by the United States as a hostile regime.”
