"Terrorists thrive in ungoverned spaces and that's what we're trying to do in Afghanistan, is ensure it's not an ungoverned space."

"From the American people's point of view, I hope you understand that we're trying to build defenses abroad and let armies abroad do the fighting with minimal help from us."

"The Iranians would be one of the biggest winners of an unstable Afghanistan."
