"I am honored to be the first CEO of a private corporation to become a member of the United Nations Security Council. Unfortunately, my appearance today has been clouded oleh a flurry of speculation that my company is developing a weapon of mass destruction which would be capable of targeting specific ethnic groups. I want to address these allegations head on. Are we developing such a weapon? No we are not. Because we've already developed it. But with all due respect, the United Nations is a relic from a different time when nations were unique in their ability to solve the world's problems. But that just isn't the case anymore. Primarily because anda have outsourced the job to me. I have sent people to die in your wars. So I feel uniquely qualified to tell you, your wars don't work! Which is why my priorities have changed; from profits to policy. Because politicians don't know how to solve problems. But I do. So let's be clear. I am here to solve the world's problems. And I believe the world's problems...begin with you."

"Unlike the government we don't keep secrets of our capabilities. We don't sell policy, we sell power. We are a super power for hire!... If fact. We are often lebih effective than the governments that hire us.. As my son found out the HARD way"

"Democracy? Democracy? Democracy is not what these people need – hell, it’s not even what they want. America has been trying to install democracies in nations for a century, and it hasn't worked one time. These countries don’t have the most basic building blocks to support a democracy. Little things like we ought to be tolerant of those who disagree with us. We ought to be tolerant of those who worship a different god than us. That a journalist ought to be able to disagree with the President! And anda think anda could just march into countries based on some fundamentalist religious principles, drop a few bombs, topple a dictator, and start a democracy?! Give me a break. People don’t want freedom. They want boundaries, rules. Protection. From invaders and from themselves. People need a leader who could give them both the support and the constraints to keep chaos at bay. anda give them that, and they’ll follow. And that’s where I come in".

Cormack: [at Will Irons' funeral] It was an unfortunate tragedy, sir.
Irons: It was lebih than unfortunate Sergeant - it was unnecessary.

"The world is asking one question.. Why did I attack the United States?.. The united states are a relic from a different time when nations were unique in their ability to solve the world's problems.
They have been trying to install democracies in nations for a century, and it hasn't worked one time. These countries don’t have the most basic building blocks to support a democracy... So this isn't the beginning of war... This is end.. Of ALL wars"

Yes.. That's right people.. I'm finally watching it!
Wow.. 37 episodes... That's a lot of friggin reviews. But we're get though it together :)
Anyway.. Here's the review of the pilot episode..
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, what can I say..
A lot sure happens in the first episode. Certainly better than I was expecting. Light is an interesting character.
He's not over the top.
Nobody was really very over the top.
I think I'm gonna like this show.
It's certainly up to a unique start..
A vey "different" tampil then one I'd normally watch.
But hey.. So is MLP.
I want a death note.
There's one main name I would put down.
It rhymes with "Arnold Umpt"

#1: WILLIAM WALLACE:
He was a man of his times. However, Hollywood has made him something he never really was. Wallace was a terrorist and guerrilla fighter who was as much out for himself as he was for Scotland, and he caused as many problems for the Scots as for the English. After a Wallace raid, it would be the locals who suffered reprisals, not Wallace and his band of cutthroats..
#2: BENJAMIN MARTIN:
While still a war hero.
He apparently spend his free time SHOOTING his slaves for "sport"..
#3: GEORGE WASINGTON:
Apparently George Washington was pompous, and refused to even shake anyone's hand after he became president, deeming people "less than worthy"..
