Just because Professor Spears said he tended to be less optimistic, I'm going to pose this question to you, Mr. Menkhaus. The UN Secretary General said, in the not too distant past, that he's very confident that Somalia will be one of the great success stories.
What would be the basis of a statement like that? Do you believe that's possible?
