How do we make sure that this does not become a protracted or drawn out conflict in the Middle east like we have seen, you know, time after time? Well, we have a different president. We have a president that doesn't want to get into forever wars. He doesn't like war, but he knows his responsibility is to defend the freedom of this country. And that's what he's working to do. So I know it's a president that's, that it will, is willing to use the American military to defend our freedom and American lives, which I'm proud of that. (02:19–02:28)
