Kay Hagan: “This is a crime, sexual assault is a crime, and we have to address it as such.”

While a strong moderate military force is essential, I do believe success on the battlefield can only set the condition for the political solution in Syria.

The United States cannot bear this fight alone, and a strong coalition, including the neighboring Arab states, is obviously critical to destroying ISIS.

I am pleased that the strategy that the administration has developed for defeating ISIS does include the training and equipping the moderate Syrian opposition.

I also think it's critical that the people of Syria have an alternative other than ISIS or other radical terrorist groups like it or the Assad regime.
