8. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dick Cheney, US Vice President:
"We've never had a fight like this and it's not a fight we can win using the strategies from other wars. An enemy that operates in the shadows and views the entire world as a battlefield is not one that can be contained or deterred. An enemy with fantasies of martyrdom is not going to sit down at a table for peaceful negotiations. The only option for our security and survival is to go on the offensive, face the threat directly, patiently and systematically until the enemy is destroyed."

10. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dick Cheney, US Vice President:
"We are determined to prevail in Iraq because we understand the consequences of failure. If our coalition withdrew before Iraqis could defend themselves, radical factions would battle for dominance of that country. The violence would likely spread throughout the country and be difficult to contain. Having tasted victory in Iraq, jihadists would look for new missions. Many would head for Afghanistan to fight alongside the Taliban. Others would set out for capitals across the Middle East spreading more sorrow and discord as they eliminate dissenters and work to undermine moderate governments. Still others would find their targets and victims in other countries on other continents. Such chaos and mounting danger does not have to occur, it is however the enemy's objective. And for the sake of our own long term security, we have a duty to stand in their way."

12. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dick Cheney, US Vice President:
""China has played an especially important role in the six-party process because the Chinese understand that a nuclear North Korea would be a threat to their own security. We hope China will join us in our efforts to prevent the deployment and the proliferation of deadly technologies, whether in Asia or in the Middle East. Other actions by the Chinese government send a different message. Last month's anti-satellite test, and China's continued fast-paced military build-up are less constructive and are not consistent with China's stated goal of a peaceful rise. For our part, the United States and Australia have the same hopes for the future of China, that its people will enjoy greater freedom and prosperity, that its government will be a force for stability and peace in this region."
