Leadership has been looking at that to setup a climate where retaliation is not acceptable i will put a question for the record about the unused building record in afghanistan. I know there was an investigation that you were not found to be a problem in this but it is a problem the investigation found no problem and in reality there was a huge problem that someone signed off on a building for 36 million that is never going to go used. My final question if you dont have time to do it now, i want to make sure we get your take on isis in afghanistan. With your experience in afghanistan, are you comfortable you have a handle on what isis is trying to do in afghanistan . Senator, what i know from general campbells reports and intelligence is we have seen a number of taliban rebrand themselves as isis but beyond that i dont have a good feel for the depth of the problem but it would be one of the issues i look into if confirmed thank you very much. General dunford, i think you are just the ma

Now, this is not this is not a new topic. I know sometimes folks discover these things like they just happen. There is a long history of in equity in the criminal Justice System in america. When i was in the state legislature in illinois, we worked to make sure that we had video taping the interrogations because there were some problems there.

Of a plevo site is created at that point. I realize im posing something to you that is hypothetical. In light of the officials in the Russian Federation, i think its something to be concerned about. Brezinski spoke to this Committee Earlier this year and said we need to create a trip wire in the baltics and that this trip wire should communicate clearly to russia that nato will not tolerate violation of the territorial integrity of our allies.
