I yield the gentleman an additional 30 seconds. Mr. McKEON. The Taliban and al Qaeda are also listening. And, finally, the Afghan people are listening. Mr. Speaker, I want to send a clear message to the Afghan people and government, our coalition partners, our military men and women that this Congress will stand firm in our commitment to free us from the problems that the Taliban created for us on 9/11. We will not have this sanctuary ever happen again. I urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on this resolution.
