The WSJ's Europe edition chose a different quote from the same interview:

NOTABLE & QUOTABLE


U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, in an interview Monday with London's Daily Telegraph, on the "rift" between the U.S. and Europe:

To say that countries in Europe don't agree or are causing problems is, I think, only very partially true. I think there are individuals who are. There are elements of political parties that are.

What the people of Europe think, you probably know a lot more than I do. But I have the impression there's just an awful lot of support for the coalition in Europe, among the populations, and it may very well be that the fact that newspapers, television and radio hype disagreement and elevate some politicians' words and then characterize it as "European opinion" as opposed to the words of a single individual or a small faction, it seems to me, is a misunderstanding of the situation.
