Thank you very much.
Thank you to all three of you for coming today and sharing your expertise with us.
Dr. Maloney, you indicated that you've travelled several times and watched the evolution in Afghanistan over the last several years. In your opinion, is this a counter-insurgency mission? If it is, what have been the lessons from history about the best tactics to use, particularly with regard to the civilian population and the issue of taking prisoners.
I'm also interested in your opinion on the role of Pakistan. Do you think they will ever be in a position to prevent the insurgents from crossing back and forth across the border? It's a continuing problem, and I'd like to know what you have to say about that.
