Christopher Hitchens Quotes

When the day comes that Tehran can announce its nuclear capability, every shred of international law will have been discarded. The mullahs have publicly sworn—to the United Nations and the European Union and the International Atomic Energy Agency—that they are not cheating.

How strange it is that those who usually fetishize the United Nations and its inspectors do not feel this shame more keenly.

The conflict continues on the battlefield of mortality. And one of Lucifer’s primary... Ezra Taft Benson
