What our lawyers have been looking at are the options we have for beginning to build the initial phases of this radar within the restrictions or terms of the ABM Treaty. And they have looked...

It would be reasonable to expect a slowdown in operations during Ramadan.

Speaking as the President’s chief of staff, I think you are doing the President an enormous disservice. One, it will leak. Two, it will be politically and diplomatically disastrous when it leaks ‘¦ I think...

He has a choice now between cooperation and confrontation. Confrontation has not gotten him what he wanted. It might be time for him to try cooperation.

We have plans for a swift and severe air campaign. This will be painful to the Serbs.

There isn’t any conceivable reason why Iran needs a missile of intercontinental range if it’s worried about regional security issues. It already has, in the Shahab-3, a missile that should allow it to deter or...

We obviously hit enough tanks and other targets to win.

Then the international community will have to decide what to do next, based on Milosevic’s activities.

We have designed a broad, seamless air campaign that should not be seen in terms of phases. It should be seen as one air campaign that will move through a series of targets and goals.
