"Will we tell them that we will defend them against Bashar Assad's barrel-bombing?"

"It is shameful--shameful--to send people in and not assure them that we will defend them against attacks by barrel bombs."

"I hope we will get into more details about what you plan to do to reverse this action."

"You are recruiting people and not telling them that they are going to defend them because you have not made the decision yet."
