kevin lowry joins me now. thank you very much, welcome to the "newshour". let's start with those who supervoned releasetions for john walker lindh. are those sufficient to make su that lindh or anyone like him who has been convicted of these crimes doesn't stay radical in the future? >> well, i don't think that they're foolproof and that there's 100% guarantee with anything. what we do is we set up conditions to monitor, provide monitoring, surveillance, correctional treatment throughout the course of supervision, throughout watching behavior very closely we'll know and monitoreople are doing under supervision. we never take people's rd for what they are doing or their commitment, but we wat their actions, and, therefore, tho conditions are paramount and both public safety and ensuring that there is correctional or reharehabilitative treatment for extremists. >> there is an irony, it seems to me. the u.s. actually funds deradicallization programs overseas, as you know, because you ossited some of programs overseas. there is no national u.s. deradicallizatio
