Quotations
2005: â��Everyone is saying, â��You canâ��t be serious about targeting Iran. Look at Iraq,â��â�� the former intelligence official told me. â��But they say, â��Weâ��ve got some lessons learnedâ��not militarily, but how we did it politically. Weâ��re not going to rely on agency pissants.â�� No loose ends, and thatâ��s why the C.I.A. is out of there.â�� — The New Yorker, 24 & 31 January 2005
