laughter . This particular group, and we take it as a very serious threat stream, one that were concerned about and sometimes it gets lost on the public the threatbased on of isil. Is that is a threat. Probably threat is more immediate and what concerns us most about it is the working with aqap and other affiliates to put together an thats successful mainly targeted at aviation targets, i think all of that has public, but its serious and its rising up. And its interesting that where you see these operatives isnt necessarily where you might see some before. So you might see number s iraq, africa, in con swrungs with another affiliate.

The freeing of terrorists poses a National Security threat to americans and our armed forces and complicates its not going to change their perception one iota. I understand that people had an honest disagreement about the way the statute was interpreted and implemented. What i was just saying to you was that that is an h
