"the notion that a strategy that relies on a more inclusive government, Iraqi Government, can work is a fallacy"

"We are witnessing the disappearance of Christians and Christianity from Iraq, Syria, and elsewhere in the Middle East, a religious, cultural genocide."

"Stable self-government grounded in religious tolerance and ultimately religious freedom is the only reliable antidote to the toxic religious convictions of Islamist terrorists."

"The root cause is Islamist terrorism of the kind that hit us on 9/11."
