When your military credentials match those of Keyes you will be worthy.

Alan Keyes, various quotes from the First Jerusalem Summit, October 14, 2003

"For the time being, there can be no peace process in the Middle East. There can be none, no. People say, "Well, that's harsh. We need peace! We want peace!" Of course we want peace. I want peace just as much as anybody else! But the first thing we have to recognize is a fundamental truth that I think we talk around, and deal around, and in other ways get around, but peace doesn't start until it has been introduced into the heart and conscience of everybody at the table. You cannot have a discussion of peace with those who remain committed to, not only war, but to the most illegitimate and evil and immoral form of warfare known to humankind."

"Since our aim in the war with terrorism is not peace, it makes no sense to negotiate peace with terrorists. Terrorists have taken up the instruments of war in a way that suggests that their consciences are immune to the usual categories of persuasion."

"I think that in the Middle East and all over the world it's time we made it clear: we do not want peace with terror! We want the destruction of terrorism!"

"When engaged in a war, particularly a war forced upon you by those who will not stop their acts of terrorism or aggression, peace cannot be the objective of your war. Peace is a secondary objective that will hopefully be produced as the byproduct of achieving that which must in such a war be your main objective, and that is to defeat the enemy."

"We are at war. The proper objective in war is not peace but victory."

"In this war, there is no substitute for victory. We shall win it or we shall be destroyed."
