I don’t think the United States is a country that is capable of doing nation building. I think the people of a nation have to do that they know their culture they know the languages, they know their neighbours, they know their history or if it’s a tribal country they know the tribes and we can help and we can encourage but we can’t build nations I don’t think.
— Donald Rumsfeld (voormalig minister van Defensie) in een Al Jazeera-interview dat later vandaag wordt uitgezonden
