I'd like to ask you a question about the heroin--or the opium poppy production in Afghanistan.

Failure in leadership from the brigade commander on down, lack of discipline, no training whatsoever, and no supervision were the root of the problem.

Is my time--last question, I'll be fast.

Last year, I asked you, at this hearing, about the robust nuclear earth penetrator, and you told me it was just a study.

What have you done to remedy this problem?

A large number of detainees are innocent. They're in the wrong place at the wrong time.

There is no way we can lose this war militarily, and there is no way we can win it militarily.

We need to spend our resources wisely to make sure that we can protect our nation from these threats.

I believe National Missile Defense is one of the key foreign policy and national security issues that we will face in the coming decades.

National Missile Defense is not and should not be seen as a one-size-fits-all substitute for an effective non-proliferation strategy.

My very strong view is that this nation should always observe the protocols of the Geneva Conventions.

But you, Mr. Chairman, were the one who said, yes, let us do the hearing, and that counts for a lot.
