Adam Ereli Iraqi Quotations

So looking ahead to the referendum, I think the signs are good that there will be broad participation, that the results will reflect the views and the will of the Iraqi people.

We, from the very beginning of Operation Iraqi Freedom, did everything we could to secure arms caches throughout the country,

The problem has clearly not been solved and the problem is widespread. We and the Iraqi government continue to have concern about the way prisoners are treated in Iraqi facilities and in facilities nominally under the control of the Iraqi government.

We have every reason to believe they (the Iraqis) can and will ... Under the present circumstances, with what we have now, we believe that what steps the Iraqi government have taken are effective and sufficient.

And the United States, for its part, is going to do everything it can to ensure that the rights of Iraqi citizens are respected.

The signs are positive, are good, that there will be broad participation, that the results will reflect the views and the will of the Iraqi people, and that there will be a firm basis for moving forward on the next step, which is an election, another nationwide election on 15 December. And the infrastructure of democracy is growing, is strong.
