There will be no truth about the Middle East conflict in this court.

The vast majority of that deal was written on my desk.

I won’t beat up on him. I have to ask him some questions.

This is a case that never should have been brought. A lot of hate and ugliness was generated to not very much end. To sort of die like a whimper. We need to remember as...

I just hope the government will decide there is some sort of resolution out there short of a prosecution.

There are things that we can’t talk about.

At the end of the day, when you think about wiretaps, think about what’s not there, … There’s not one discussion of planning violent activity.

I’m extremely disappointed that the judge would deny these motions without having a hearing.

They know full well that Dr. Al-Arian had nothing to do with this violence,

The government itself has said you are free to praise groups that engage in terrorism as a means of achieving their ends, … This case concerns Dr. al-Arian’s right to speak, our right to hear...

There’s not one piece of evidence that connects Dr. Al-Arian to this,

The language of resistance, of political discourse, is sometimes harsh. But a political speaker must be free to excite his audience.

I don’t feel like I’m abandoning the ship. … We worked for two years getting ready for trial, and Dr. Al-Arian was not convicted of anything.

The government has not proven Dr. Al-Arian has done anything but speak.

I am so proud of the work we did. We extended every effort on Dr. Al-Arian’s behalf, but at the end of the day, how much can be expected of us?

the judge said he had nothing to do with the events of September 11, and the Justice Department has known that all along.

My understanding was that he was to plead guilty this afternoon.
