There will be blowback on that. Doesnt that mean we will have to have american boots on the ground, back in the quagmire i can see the reaction now from some of my friends, the same ones. What is your response to that that this would then cause us to be involved with boots on the ground and back into the quagmire that characterized our involvement prior to the search. Gen. Petraeus i think very important to underscore the fact that he cannot be a part of the longrun solution in syria. The individual held responsible for well over and he isrians a dead the Magnetic Attraction that is bringing jihadis to syria to fight him. If we are to support a force, it wont work for us. It wont be supportable if we ssadssupport it against a actions, the most horrific of which are the dropping of their old bonds and that can be stopped. We can doel bonds and that. Dont have to put any boots on the ground to do that although i think at some point, we should not be closed to the possibility of some advi
Officials from the state an Energy Department where i capitol hill today to testify on the nuclear deal with iran. The hearing held by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee focused on october 2015 testing of two Ballistic Missile by iran and the u. S. Ability to enforce keeper visions of the agreement. This is two and half hour. Would like to thank our witnesses for being here. We know senators that are here at the moment, others will be joining. This hearing is the first Public Meeting the committee has held as we began overseeing the implementation of the iran deal. I would like to underscore the importance that we play some oversight efforts. In many ways i think that is the strongest element of the firebrand review act. We intend to hold another hearing in january after the administration submits the 180 day report, as required by the iran review act. F third, if implementation day occurs. Im sure there are more to follow after that and we will work with that and well work with th
It in no way diminishes, as as i said the task of counter proliferation, of preventing acquisition of technology. I look forward to addressing any concerns or questions you have about these two central roles in my bureau. Or any other topic. Thank you thank you again for this opportunity. Thank you very much. Thank you chairman corker, Ranking Member, and Ranking Members of the committee. It is a great honor to testify before this committee and to have the opportunity to discuss the role of the department of energy and the National Nuclear Security Administration play, and will continue to play in support of the u. S. Governments actions to implement the jcp oa. As my colleagues from the state department have already stated, the jcp oa ensures that Irans Nuclear program is exclusively peaceful. It provides unprecedented verification measures, it constrains Irans Nuclear program and a manner that gives us ample time to respond if iran chooses to violate its terms and it takes, of our op
Support. I want to give the congressman a chance to respond. The American People are ned concerned. I think when incidents like what happened in San Bernardino, americans are frightened and they like to their leaders for answers. Ane i think the initial response, my republican colleagues was to go after the refugee program. Thats the panacea, denyingun women and children and old men i and women fromng coming to the United States, who are looking for refuge. That really is not addressing the issue. Getg i think what democrats are focusing on and we had from the get go is a visa waiver program, which weve taken action on in a bipartisan way, a more he thoughtful way and i think also the issue of addressing the issue of access to weapons by terrorists. Weapo by keeping them from getting those weapons the terrorism watch list by a means as to who can purchase weapons. People i recognize the feelings there. The first reasonability of the president and congress is to protect the American Peo
