I mean, we had, we took a second, we did a bombing campaign in Afghanistan and began over a decades long hunt for the perpetrators of this attack. We also went ahead and occupied Afghanistan and invaded and occupied Iraq. And I think if you ask most Americans, in hindsight, they would have said, hey, you know, a bombing campaign, going after the perpetrators, that's one option that that might have made more sense as opposed to 20 years of war. So I think that for those of us who have served in places like Fallujah and Ramadi, we just want to make sure that there's an endgame that's not fantasy, that's actually real. (04:52–05:05)
