McConnell Comments

Q & A before the Senate Armed Services Committee on CSPAN right now.

McConnell states that a recent assessment showed the taliban in control of about 10-11% of the land-mass and all those within. The GoA controls about 31%. THE REST IS LOCALLY CONTROLLED (armed warlords).

This is a long war with, like Iraq, multiple enemies of peace, stability, and good governance. A REALLY long war.
