I'd wish for my work to be remembered rather than myself.

I'd rather be remembered as a player who came on and impacted a lot of games for England. If I ever take a selfish thought-process of, 'I'm doing this for myself,' then things will be seriously wrong.

The Arab rulers are basically unpopular. They are supported by the United States against the wishes of their people. In all of this rather heady mixture of violence and policies that are remarkably unpopular right down to the last iota, it's not hard for demagogues, especially people who claim to speak in the name of religion, in this case Islam, to raise a crusade against the United States and say that we must somehow bring America down.
