Diplomacy and not towards making a grilled cheese sandwich; diplomacy towards making peace. Look, we're parsing here. The fact of the matter is it's a nonprofit think tank that does a great job. Pursuing peace is a good thing. I don't believe Mr. Chaffetz and I are against pursuing peace. The only question is, when we are apportioning Federal dollars in the budget, do we say to one institute that tries to foster peace, you're going to get money, and another, you're not? Do we say to one, you're going to get a building, and the other, you're not? Do we say, one, you're going to go through competitive grants; the other is not? That's the only question. The idea there's only one--maybe Mr. Chaffetz can speak to this. The idea there's only one think tank pursuing peaceful outcomes, I believe, Mr. Jackson, you know that that's not the case.
