And the red-baiting. I see, yes. Thank you. I appreciate that.

Mr. Fadden, you talked about the strategic adversary, a nice-sounding term. It's like a hockey team. Then you mentioned an eight out of 10. That's quite a high-alert level. I assume a 10 is conflict. Is “strategic adversary” in fact the right term? Does that really convey the threat?
