My personal missteps - how many Americans have died as a result of that? None. Other than my family, how many victims were there? None. And yet, in refusing to engage in a responsible debate about Iraq, how many Americans died? Thousands. And America seems to have no problem with that. Scott Ritter

I made a movie to explain to the American public what had been achieved in regards to disarmament of Iraq and why inspectors aren't in Iraq today and detailing the very complex, murky history of interaction between Iraq, the United Nations and the United States. It is most definitely not a pro-Iraq movie. It is a pro-truth movie. Scott Ritter
Scott Ritter quote: "I don't disagree with anything I've ever said. Why in God's..."
I don't disagree with anything I've ever said. Why in God's name would I disagree with something I've said? Scott Ritter

We say that we care about the war, but we don't even really know what we're fighting for. Scott Ritter
