"It is one thing to take over a territory and then pour energy and resources into administering and normalizing it. Rightly or wrongly, that is what the British Empire did -- in India for example. It is another thing to go in on the assumption that a quick burst of violent action will somehow clear the decks and that you can move on and other people will put things back together again -- Iraq for example."
Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, leader of the world's Anglicans.
