Robin Cook Mass Quotations

In Kosovo Europe witnessed the greatest persecution of a whole people since the days of Hitler or Stalin. We acted because the age of mass deportation and ethnic cleansing belongs to Europe's past.

Tony did not try to argue me out of the view that Saddam did not have real weapons of mass destruction that were designed for strategic use against city populations and capable of being delivered with reliability over long distances,

It's very important that we all send Saddam Hussein a message that is resolute, is firm and is united, ... He must be firmly told that he is not going to be permitted to continue to build weapons of mass destruction, particularly biological and chemical weapons.

I have to say that I will not accept the criticism that has been emanating from Belgrade from the very people who organize the mass ethnic cleansing of Kosovo, who have caused thousands of civilian deaths in Kosovo, and who have displaced from their homes hundreds of thousands of people in Kosovo, ... How dare they produce crocodile tears for people killed in the conflict for which they themselves are responsible.
