To the largest city in the area, and after that we had to drive for more than five hours up these mountains. Its not easily accessible, and that remoteness appears to have hampered Emergency Response efforts. Now, the most pressing issue right here appears to be finding bodies, because at this point it seems very unlikely to find survivors. But after that, the authorities will have the responsibility of helping the survivors and families of the victims. But beyond that, there is a larger question lingering. Several areas in southern ethiopia, including this one, have been identified by the un to be at risk of extreme Weather Events like flooding and landslides.

The other headline could be far longer reaching with much greater impact on how this country maintains its presence in the world and at what cost in dollars and lives of american service members. Namely, the president s commitment to avoid fighting another war like the one he just ended. Well talk about both tonight. Today new polling from Pew Research showed that americans by a 12point margin, 54 to 42 , approved of the decision to withdraw. However, as the president s overall handling of the situation, 42 said the president did poorly. Substantially more than those who rated it either fair, good or excellent. This part of his remarks spoke to that. Let me be clear. Leaving August The 31st is not due to an arbitrary deadline. It was designed to save american lives. My predecessor had made a deal with the taliban. When i came into office, we fa
