Jim Webb: “Senator Webb, your efforts with respect to Burma have played an essential role in this regard.”

The disagreements over sovereignty and the potential for conflict have only increased.

I think if the administration had properly put the issue before the Congress, the likelihood is that it would have been supported.

So if Tiananmen occurred today with the Chinese Government rolling out tanks and killing hundreds, if not thousands, of its own people, that it would also fit the Panetta rule.

I am committed to trying to make this policy work, at the same time to reduce the frictions that are causing it problems.
