I'm an advocate of the great Dr. Johnson, the English man of letters who said that patriotism was the last refuge of the scoundrel.

The big tyrants never face justice.

It is only losers that are prosecuted.

I am an opponent of Saddam Hussein, but an opponent also, of the sanctions that have killed a million Iraqi children and an opponent of the United States' apparent desire to plunge the Middle East into a new and devastating war.

There are those who wrap themselves in flags and blow the tinny trumpet of patriotism as a means of fooling the people.

We say here that if you fall down in the United States, the ambulance man must feel for your wallet before he feels for your pulse.

Henry Kissinger is the greatest living war criminal in the world today, with the blood of millions of people in Vietnam and Cambodia and Laos and Chile and East Timor on his hands. He will never appear in a court or be behind bars.

I've never had a penny through oil deals and no one has produced a shred of evidence that I have.

I came to declare that I am a friend to Arabs, at a time when it is not easy to be friend to Arabs, because nowadays those who have ambitions and interests would not befriend Arab.

I have never solicited nor received money from Iraq for our campaign against war and sanctions. I have never seen a barrel of oil, never owned one, never bought one, never sold one.

I think that both men, Bush and Blair, will be damned in history. Both men have made their respective countries the two most hated countries in the world.

I've had more than 12,000 emails from the United States. It's not easy in the United States to find out the email address of a British parliamentarian.
