Gator Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 Quote by Colin Powell:When in England at a fairly large conference, Colin Powell was asked bythe Archbishop of Canterbury if our plans for Iraq were just an exampleof empire-building by George Bush. He answered by saying the following:"Over the years, the United States has sent many of its fine young menand women into great peril to fight for freedom beyond our borders. Theonly amount of land we have EVER asked for in return is enough to burythose that did not return."...... It became very quiet in the room.
