America recognized the only way to defeat the terrorists in the long run is to present an alternative to their hateful ideology.
We must be determined, and we must be relentless to do our duty to protect the American people from harm.
Our insistence that long-term financing be contingent upon a long-term viability plan is intact.
We have severely weakened the terrorists.
