I wonder if you can;

You may say I'm a dreamer,
But I'm not the only one;
I hope some day you will join us,
And the world will live as one.

“Do not imagine that this problem is solely an Iraqi problem because the terrorist front represents a threat to all free countries and free people of the world… Thousands of lives were tragically lost on Sept. 11 when these impostors of Islam reared their ugly head. Thousands more continue to die in Iraq today at the hands of the same terrorists who show complete disregard for human life.”

Nouri al-Maliki (1950) Prime Minister of Iraq
