I‘m proud of having Turkey and Iran as neighbors. (Ace Goodman)
Indeed, we do not seek to export our political ideas or experiences, a practice that has too often led to instability in the Middle East. (Ace Goodman)
Iraq has regained its independence and held democratic elections for the first time in its history, in order to elect a National Iraqi committee. (Ace Goodman)
It is this regime that started a war of genocide against the Kurdish people, then started an unjust war against our dear neighbour Iran which has often helped the Iraqi people at times of hardship. (Ace Goodman)
My reply was that the Kurdish people welcome the presence of American forces in Kurdistan in order to defend the freedom they enjoy and to prevent being attacked with weapons of mass destruction. (Ace Goodman)
Now we are living in a country with a very democratic climate. (Ace Goodman)
Of course, some opposition members who failed in the elections, or some who did not take part in the elections must have something to say. They cannot admit the facts and the realities, but these are the facts and the realities. (Ace Goodman)
Our commitment to human rights, primarily of the individual, but also of our diverse ethnic and religious heritage for which we suffered, must be absolute. (Ace Goodman)
Our gratitude to the American people is immense and we should never be embarrassed to express it. (Ace Goodman)
Rather, it is through conciliation and compromise that we are building a fair Iraq, a just state for all its peoples. (Ace Goodman)
Rather, we ask that the uniqueness of the Iraqi experience be recognized and our newly restored sovereignty respected. (Ace Goodman)
Saddam Hussein committed many crimes, the most important of which are the mass graves that hold hundreds of thousands of Iraqis including children, women, the elderly and men who were buried without a trial. (Ace Goodman)
The Kurdish people have the right of self-determination like every other nation in the world. (Ace Goodman)
The regional plots that pushed some Kurdish parties against other Kurdish parties are about to come to an end. (Ace Goodman)
The United States of America is not the lawyer of the Kurdish people, it is a big state, with its own policy, and it has its own national interest. (Ace Goodman)
The victory of the new Iraq will be the triumph of freedom over hate, of decency over intolerance. (Ace Goodman)
We are finding new mass graves every day. Saddam Hussein committed a crime by using chemical weapons… He waged two wars on Iran and Kuwait. He murdered and executed hundreds and hundreds of Iraqis. (Ace Goodman)
We believe that the mission to bring about comprehensive democratic changes in Baghdad, in the sense of ending the existing dictatorship, is the task of the Iraqi opposition forces. (Ace Goodman)
We cannot wait for years and years of terrorist activity because we haven’t enough government forces. (Ace Goodman)
We completely persist that the regime in Iraq should be democratic. (Ace Goodman)
We do not have one party which got the majority. We have different groups, different parties. (Ace Goodman)
