i go first to general kean. how do you see what's happening on the ground. >> from a security perspective, what i observed there in february doing an assessment for them is a dramatic turn around in the momentum in security, particularly in problems where operations started over a year ago and problems where our operations really get under way with the surge forces this summer and send them into the fall. it's pretty dramatic because the territory that is the safe havens and support zones that the taliban used to control there, we control. and secondly, we've taken out their logistical infrastructure which is pretty significant and impacts on dramatically in terms of the capacity of the sustained future campaigns. and the third thing that's happened is the that people are aligned with us. and the evidence of that is also dramatic because they've given us close to, you know, 50 ieb factories and hundreds of casuals that contain ammunition supplies and weapons. they're going to come back here. they'll begin coming

as a witness, the is not representative -- is a convenient witness for peter keane. peter king is bringing him because he would like to hear something that -- will tell him. instead of hearing what he likes, he would -- he should have people who will tell him what he needs to hear. those should have probability and research and accurate data on what goes on in the moslem community. -- they should have credibility and research. >> listen to the sheriff because he is the actual law enforcement person on the panel to look into why muslims are not cooperating with muslims. he would be the most direct witness. >> [inaudible] >> it is religion part of this debate? the religion of mr. cantor and mr. king? >> it should not be. in the lead up to this hearing, we met with the numbers of members of this committee and other members of congress. where the article gets it right is that even some members of the republican majority in the house are uncomfortable with the rhetoric. i think that mr. king has gone too far. it will be interesting to see how that discomfort manifest itse

what has made some headline news recently is that congressman team of new york, peter keane, chairman of the house homeland's security committee -- congressman peter king plans to hold hearings on this very question. what he has titled his hearings is the radicalization of muslim americans. many leading up to the first hearing were quite concerned, from the general public and the media to sensationalize a lot of that hearing leading up to the first one as a reincarnation, if you will, of the kind of red baiting that was done in the 1950's by then senator joseph mccarthy. it's a fragile subject, one that should not be swept under the rug from all vantage points of this perspective. we must not lose our moral compass in making sure that with the advent of patriot act one and two there has been a significant eroding of civil rights of americans and people who are here to be considered american, whether they are muslim american, south asian, arab, persian, it is something we are noticing without fail, a trend that makes municipal governments have to speak up at times. this was not the fir

for that we're joined by retired army general jack keane. he was army vice chief of staff when the u.s. invaded afghanistan in 2001. he now has his own consulting firm. and frederic wehrey is a senior policy analyst at the rand corporation. as an air force reserve officer, he served as a military attache in libya in 2009 and then earlier this year. it's a remarkable job in a short period of time. establishing ail no fly zone, i think is something of a misnomer. we've destroyed the air defenses, and the decisive force in libya has always been his ground forces, and we're begining to destroy them. they've got problems with it. on the report, those forces that are committed forces, that is they're engageed with the rebels or in proximity to civilians, we have to destroy those forces. to be able to do that we must be groundaire ground teams. air ground teams means put people -- >> we did it with taliban, and drengted the airplanes to the target. we do it every day in afghanistan today. and we did it routinely in iraq >> let me ask, what's your a
