Kurds were there. The kurds werent even at the table. This was a betrayal of the people who are on the frontlines fighting the big fight of today against radical islamic terrorism. We betrayed them. This is horrible. What kind of message does that send to other people around the world who have to stand up against this onslaught of radical fanatic, islamic terrorists and dictatorship that would be superimposed on them . We better make sure that these people understand whether its Abdula Abdullah or how about the crown prince of abu dhabi . Heres a man who is so strong in his conviction and leadership in that part of the world to try to stop this terrible threat but yet we dont yes, hes treated well. We should be honoring him. There should be there should be our administration shoulding leading the efforts to take abdullahs and crown prince there in abu dhabi and the president , these people deserve demonstrable support, not just ok.

Justified the release of the taliban 5 . Were not at the end of hostilities in afghanistan. They said the reason we transferred the taliban 5 is because you traditionally swap prisoners when hostilities are over, therefore we get our guy back because the war is basically over and we release five of the taliban.

Well, i said i agree with you, sir, hostilities are not over. Great. I couldnt agree with lets go for it as a committee. No one should be transferred because of the concept of end of hostilities.

Yes. Do you feel like you have a deficiency today . Not today. Do you feel like you will have a deficient sin the near future .

We have been watching the screen somewhat uncertain if we were going to be here this morning. I am grateful it worked out so we can talk about the Cybersecurity Framework the whitehouse announced this week. We believe it is going to help the industry achieve grating levels of security around Critical Infrastructure. It allows companies of all sizes to adopt policies based on their specific threats by creating a common language or protocol, it will help communicate about shared responsibilities with vendors, suppliers, customers and partners. Our industry takes these responsibilities very seriously. It is my honor to introduce Michael Daniel. A cybersecurity correspondent na and he leads the development of Cybersecurity Strategy and policy. Prior to that, he served with the office of management and bu
Conduct tests, modeling, simulation. I was talking to a company the other day about really large company, how long it took them to to get approval to buy some kind of Software Package to do some modeling. And this is the for one of the bands of the future, they had a lot of stake in. So, its not just the government. Its a lot of folks that are hurting for money, and resources. So, any way to kind of filter that back into r d and testing, that would be great. Anyone else . Go ahead. I just want to add, i think with regard to doing the testing and the studies, from an industry privilege, we actually embarked on a monitoring activity to assess the type of emissions that were enculpberred in specific bands and figure out what impact would those emissions have on an imculp were going to share that with the Regulatory Community and dod as a way to move things forward with regard to how can you better share between federal and nonfederal assets. I think its a great idea. The idea of using the
