John, of course it is a double standard. My standards are far higher than Saddam's. The whole point of having the UN take over Iraq via the Coalition's attack is that they operate on a standard different from Saddam's.
A double standard is what we want. ... I expect barbarianism from Saddam, Osama and co, and I expect high standards from my side.

Maurice, in your opinion, have the members of the UN Security council, specifically France and Russia, been displaying the "high standards" appropriate to "your side" since last September?

Maurice, the 911 airplanes doors were shut. It's just that the copilot ( at least on one plane) went out once the cockpit was told that the stewardess was cut to pieces by those cutters.
The Afghan Smile, remember?

What would you have done, as a pilot, with no such prior barbarity in history ?
