Robert Fisk Quotes About Enemies

Quotes about: Enemies

• After the allied victory of 1918, at the end of my father's war, the victors divided up the lands of their former enemies.

And I have spent my entire career — in Belfast and Sarajevo, in Beirut and Baghdad — watching the people within those borders burn.

He's always wanted to be that.

• Osama Bin Laden is not well read and he's not sophisticated, but he will have worked out very coldly what America would do in response to this attack 9/11. I'm sure he wanted America to attack Afghanistan. Once you do what your enemy wants, you are walking into a trap, whether you think it's the right thing to do or not.
