Traitor
Movie Quote Quiz

Nathir: In chess and in war the key to winning is to anticipate what your opponent will do in advance. Think two moves ahead. The art of asymmetrical warfare is less about inflicting damage than provoking a response. Terrorism is theater. And theater is always performed for an audience. Ours is the American people. But they are dispersed across a large country. The question is how to convince them that nowhere is safe.

Roy Clayton: Do you think Samir believes it's God's will for him to kill others?
Dierdre Horn: You carry a gun yourself.
Roy Clayton: Now you didn't answer my question.
Dierdre Horn: My son has seen enough death to understand the value of life.

Samir Horn: You know that the Qu'ran says that if you kill an innocent person it's as if you've killed all mankind?
Roy Clayton: It also says that if you save a life its like you've saved all mankind... You're a hero Samir.

Samir Horn: If a man hasn't found something he's willing to die for, he isn't fit to live.

Samir Horn: Oh I'm a terrorist?
Roy Clayton: I don't know you tell me, you've been selling them explosives.
Samir Horn: Oh I sell to who can afford to buy it... like the US Government.
Max Archer: Only ours don't kill innocent people.
Samir Horn: Oh yeah they do genius, people just usually have darker skin.

Other mistake: In Traitor, as Don Cheadle is preparing to fight in the Yemeni Jail house towards the beginning of the movie, the camera pans around him and his opponent. In the background, a spectator emerges and bumps his head pretty hard as he comes through the doorway, reminiscent of the storm trooper who bumps his head in Star Wars.
