Fortunate to have a military leader such as you serving in a time of great peril. I want i want to ask a question of you if the objective were to destroy isys, not to we cannot a great but utterly destroy what would be required militarily to accomplish that objective . It would not be possible to destroy. I do think the military aspect is critical. If the timeframe i suggested is not feasible feasible but let me ask you a followup question what will be required to destroy isys and what timeframe is necessary . If that were the objective what would be required to accomplish it . Clicks from my perspective today this is a longterm endeavor a longterm endeavor on the order of years, not months. And what would be required to do that in whatever timeframe is necessary . From military perspective we need to take action to deny sanctuary where everything takes root that will require us to build local forces in the Partnership Capacity with local forces that would be the defeat mechanism.

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
Two more questions. In iraq, you recall off the top of your head granted the focus is about afghanistan the number of beds and desks built versus occupied . Do you have that number or is that something you can provide this committee . I think that is something we can provide. I hope its not a difficult ask. And i hope we can get it sooner than later. The last question on cyber security. Are you aware of any Network Disruptions or intrusions at the state department that have affected obo . Intrusions at the state we have had network intrusions. They have not affected any of our data bases. And o. B. O. Was not affected. They affected our emails but did not affect our data bases or systems. Is there any indication that any systems about embassies was compromised or hacked into . Im not aware of any information to that point. Nothing regarding your department . Not that i know of. We could go back and look and ask the appropriate people. But im not sure what youre referring to. Sir, throu
The 3rd thing, the requirement if the grant says we have to give a grant back we have a boring reality between two gangs on two sides of our church. The state gives us a grant to work with the juveniles trouble because they came from two different counties because of the other county could needed. We have to give you back the written by phd signal, the neighborhood. The relationship grant fundraising is a skill that most of us just dont have. And so we end up selling pies because you no how to do that, you can control it. [laughter] the audit they grant assumes you have general operating power. If you dont have general operating power you have to get someone to manage. Get it out of the grant. Then pay the auditor for the grant. Ends up being right for the audit. So itso it is and then you go to jail. Absolutely. [laughter] because your corrupt but because you are underfunded. [laughter] that is why what bothers talking about is more of an enterprise model the way you take idea. You no
Ago they called in senator mitchell and ken dubestein to investigate where they had gone wrong with the ioc and make recommendations. External respected, nonpartisan investigation. This committee to help u. S. Soccer set up a similar independent committee to find out what on earth has gone so badly wrong and it being covered up. Also u. S. Soccer could do what your government does, which is put everything online. The forms are inadequate. And then renew, reorganize and reinvigorated soccer could say to the world this is how it does. We are not in america pushing around but we can do it. It is all wide open. Join with us and the 209 National Associations would come with you finishing. Next monday, the absent mr. Gillaspie, who i think is treating you with contempt and the u. S. People of soblger, the men and women and the whole sport with context when he cant come here and defend the u. S. Soccer activities in concocaf and fifa. So hes going over to zurich next week with a private meeti
