Now, by measuring accomplishment, we can actually see what we are doing to accomplish the ultimate goal, which is independence, regional cooperation, and hopefully a lessening dependence on terrorism and the Taliban and people like that.

Part of our new strategy calls for economic--calls for integration of diplomatic and economic assets into our military effort.
