Statement By Congressman McCaul, Ranking Member Of The Homeland Security Intelligence Subcommittee, On General McChrystal's Report

Statement

"Success in Afghanistan is at the root of winning the global War on Terror and is the key to America's long-term national security. General McChrystal's report makes it clear that it will take more resources to prevent al Qaeda and the Taliban from re-establishing safe havens and continuing to plot against the United States, and that failure to secure Afghanistan will result in the reconstitution of terrorist cells. I support the decisions made by the generals and the commanders on the ground and I urge the President to adopt this strategy."
