Too often in the past, U.S. leaders have forced Israel to pay the price for American strategic interests in the Middle East - through concessions in the peace process as well as passivity in the face of Iraqi attacks.

I think of my peace paintings as one long poem, with each painting being a single stanza.

Churchill knew the importance of peace, and he also knew the price of it. Churchill finally got his voice, of course. He stressed strategy, but it was his voice that armed England at last with the old-fashioned moral concepts of honor and duty, justice and mercy.

I will try to work for greater reconciliation, cooperation and peace in North East Asia based on correct perception of history.

He wants only to rest and to have a little peace.
