Considering how much we invested, the soldiers general dempsey led in iraq. So im worried im not happy about this. I think delusion is a word thats too accurate. So i just want to say that here at the beginning. I hope we will get into more details about what you plan to do to reverse this action. And at some point the president s going to have to change his mind, it seems to me. He cannot just function based on a Campaign Promise when reality is different. Secretary carter do you want me to answer that question . It is a fair question, let me go back to the issue of the strategy, and then i will Say Something about afghanistan. The strategy is for defeating isil on the ground in iraq and syria is to train and then enable local forces. That takes some time. Senator sessions i understand that. General dempsey was training the iraqi forces eight years ago. I visited him in iraq. That was his primary responsibility. Weve been training them for nearly a decade. And thats not the problem ri

And let me tell you what dishonors our soldiers. Let me tell you what is a dishonor to their memory and their service. It is to fly that flag i want everybody to remember this, im talking to all of my colleagues who think we must keep it up there because of heritage. Oh how i wish how i wish robert e. Lee general lees portrait is in the senate, i wish he was here right now at this podium he would tell you all, it is an abomination for his flag to fly as a matter of fact his very flag was furled it was furled when they surrendered at appomattox and it has never been unfurled and to do so dishonors those who fought and died and it violates the terms of surrender. General lee, when it came time, and the cause was lost, he called everybody to come back work, be good citizens and build a country together. Many times he was called to start start a gorilla war. The flag is furled. Maintain your soldierly honor, go back and serve your country. Never, never, never let the flags fly again. And y
