Talking about winning and losing is like if you're talking about two armies fighting on two territories, which is not the case. Those [terrorists] are gangs, coming from abroad, infiltrate inhabited areas, kill the people, take their houses, and shoot at the army. The army cannot do the same, and the army doesn't exist everywhere.

Before the 11th of September, in my discussions with many officials of the United States, some of them are Congressmen, I used to say that don't deal with terrorists as playing games. It's a different story. You're going to pay the price if you're not wise in dealing with terrorists.

As soon as the legitimate Lebanese government is convinced that the conditions have ripened and that Lebanon is able to maintain stability on its own... Then, the Syrian forces will return to their homeland.
