Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz, 3/27/05:[T]he real problem is that the conflict hasn’t ended…I think people shouldn’t have been surprised that a regime that had burrowed into Iraqi society over 35 years and killed and tortured and intimidated people so effectively didn’t quit just because they were driven out of Baghdad on April 9, 2003.Vice President Cheney, 3/16/03:I think things have gotten so bad inside Iraq, from the standpoint of the Iraqi people, my belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators…I think it will go relatively quickly…(in) weeks rather than months.Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, 2/7/03:It is unknowable how long that conflict will last. It could last six days, six weeks. I doubt six months.
