Here with his take on the situation in Afghanistan as national security expert.
For radical Islam dot org right moral good morning Brian -- -- not a -- new in the president's speech yesterday what's your reaction to back.
Right well the big -- -- for me was the fact -- talking about a negotiated settlement with the Taliban and there's a sniff out there that there is a moderate Taliban but as soon as you start being a moderate.

Absolutely not I think that the right track -- be to get anyone that is having.
Some ill will towards -- Taliban to defect from them and turn on them.

But the good news about that story was that the Afghans held about almost entirely by themselves -- -- very sophisticated wave of attacks and I was impressed.
Well that's some good news outlets talk about that NATO summit coming up in Chicago -- of these summits we always ask people for money our partners say sure -- give it TO sure we'll give you troops.
But more often than not we end up holding -- back what he think's gonna happen.
Not my -- because if our willpower is waning than that of our allies is going to be much worse.
And so -- -- -- the US pulling out in the US getting nervous that makes them.
Many times more nervous so we should be skeptical about any pledges of money coming from some of those salads I would not rely upon that all right Ryan Moore -- thank you so much radical Islam dot org thanks for getting up so early with us today thank you have either let's had a pretty now.
