Thank you, Mr. Chairman. All you have to do is look at the top, Mr. Karzai and his brother, who was killed, who was one of the main drug runners down there who was killed. The whole country from the top to the bottom is corrupt. I thank the gentleman for his thoughts. You can't find honest people there to see that this money gets to their people.

Let's face reality and pass the amendment. I yield back the balance of my time.
