More quotes by Chuck Hagel
I'm a supporter of Israel, always have been.
Chuck Hagel
[Sheehan] deserves some consideration, and I think that should have been done right from the beginning.
Chuck Hagel
It is easy to get into war, not so easy to get out.
Chuck Hagel
The Israeli people must be free to live in peace and security.
Chuck Hagel
The president of the United States is the commander in chief, and the people who work with him at the National Security Council are his arm in working with the Defense Department. And, quite frankly, they have responsibility for all of the government. We are one component of the government.
Chuck Hagel
No one individual vote, no one individual quote or no one individual statement defines me, my beliefs, or my record.
Chuck Hagel
History has shown that a country most effectively speaks with one voice. When nationally elected officials work together, build consensus, and provide leadership, the American people will follow.
Chuck Hagel
I think this is the biggest lesson a president or any of us who has responsibility to govern have to learn: There are always consequences to actions that you take. There are consequences to inaction.
Chuck Hagel
It's critically important that we have governments to work with, that we have entities to work with. President Hadi has been a good partner in that, and we would hope that the next set of leaders that govern Yemen will also take the same approach to cooperation with the United States.
Chuck Hagel
No border that touches Israel is always secure.
Chuck Hagel
I would not trade America's position in the world - our ledger, our debts and assets - for any country in the world. There isn't a country in the world even close to America.
Chuck Hagel
In a general way, if one cannot attribute to the Jew the whole responsibility of the situation, economic, political, and social, by which Algeria is being strangled, it is no exaggeration to recognize him as morally guilty, for the great part of his rìle here, still more than elsewhere, has consisted in corrupting, degrading, and disintegrating.
Chuck Hagel
The recent wave of Taliban attacks has made clear that the international community must not waiver in its support for a stable, secure and prosperous Afghanistan.
Chuck Hagel
This is eventually how Syria will be resolved - through a political settlement.
Chuck Hagel
Engagement is not appeasement. Engagement is not surrender.
Chuck Hagel
I don't think it's a matter of going back and having a review of our process. Our process is about as thorough as there can be. Is it imperfect? Yes. Is there risk? Yes, but we start with the fact that we have an American that's being held hostage and that American's life is in danger and that's where we start. And then we proceed from there.
Chuck Hagel
If we have to continue to live under sequestration, it will have a maximum impact on our ability to fulfill the president's strategic guidance. We can't do it all. It's as simple as that, with the limitations of the budget as severe as they are. These deep, abrupt cuts have forced us to make decisions that are not in the interest of America.
Chuck Hagel
No one person leads alone - can't do it, it's impossible. It doesn't make any sense. You need a team.
Chuck Hagel
The twenty first century will require a re-affirmation and re-definition of our alliances and international organisations.
Chuck Hagel
I don't get into the book-telling business of conversations I have with the president. That's not my style, and I don't think that's a responsible thing to do.
Chuck Hagel
