CHRISTOPHER P. GIBSON: “My people, they are hurting, and they are very disappointed, and we are looking for answers.”

I appreciate the panelists and want to begin just by associating myself with the remarks that General Keane made earlier today with regard to calling things for what they are: Islamic extremists.

I believe that people have a right to know what it is that they are consuming, and I also feel very strongly about science.

The attack this morning reminds us we are still at war with an evil, determined enemy that must be defeated.

I appreciate those responses. And to be clear, even the vision that I am laying out here requires the world's strongest military as a deterrent to those who would do us harm.
