Is the current combatant command structure the best way to do that?

Could we save some money by consolidating that and trimming that down?

I think this is a very appropriate time to revisit Goldwater-Nichols, to look at the command structure, figure out, you know, what is the best plan going forward.

Is it too top heavy the way we have it structured with the command structures?

I agree with your comments about both the complexity and the importance of cyber.

It is enormously important that we get to the September goal of next year and have the full ability to audit the Department of Defense.

I don't think we really succeed against ISIS until we remove Assad.

As long as Assad is in power that is another rallying call for ISIS to fight against a brutal dictator.

We need a much clearer message about what that strategy is.

There is no question that ISIS is a clear threat that need to be confronted.

The only way we win this fight is if we find Sunni allies in the region who are willing to lead that fight.
