thank you, senator reed, for proceeding. i will withhold my questioning until senator sullivan >> thank you, mr. chair and thank you, gentlemen. mr. rasmussen, congratulations on your recent appointment. so i want to follow up on senator king's questions. there's a lot of discussion here about guantanamo -- how it potentially weakens national security that you made in your testimony. at the same time, i think we would all agree that allowing known terrorists back on the battlefield to engage our troops, our citizens, also weakens our national security. and i think that that is one of the big concerns, certainly of this committee and members of congress. and i'm certain also members of the administration. so from a broad perspective, of the remaining gtmo detainees how many are currently assessed to be high or medium risk? >> senator, i don't have those numbers at my fingertips. if you're referring to the assessments that were done by jtf-gtmo back in the last decade, my impression is knowing the population of that which we'v

>> senator reed, i think that's certainly fair. although we in our panel really were more focused on the department specifically, in the 2010 panel we actually had a chapter about the need for a better whole of government effort. really very much along the lines you're discussing. because you're right, just solving d.o.d.'s problem is crucial, and i would say a necessary condition for almost everything else. but it's not sufficient because we have other instruments of national power that we don't want to see withering on the vine without adequate funding. >> your comment. >> i would agree. in just about every operation we conduct, every problem we try to solve, there's got to be an integrated balanced interagency approach. one instrument is well funded and the others are on life support if that doesn't work so well. i think our intention was to talk about the instruments of national security more broadly. >> let me shift to another topic that you talked about in your report which is increasingly critical, that's cyber operations. f

but what i'm afraid of, even though reed -- mr.id there's no regulation what i'm afraid of is they could enforce those regulations any time they so choose under title 2. in fact a new commission could take the open city approach that chairman wheeler has taken and impose rate regulation in our business which would totally be uncalled for. so when a guy like me i'm a private company, i've spent -- you know, i own 100% of the company. i have 4,600 beautiful employees that i'm proud of. we operate in the smaller markets of the u.s. we spent over $1 billion in capex over the last four years. i'm afraid if i don't know what the return of my investment is going to be i might think twice about what money i'm spending. >> the prevailing wisdom right now, rocco, is that this is going to be stuck in courts forever and it's going to be years before the regulations are put in place, in the meantime i'm wondering, knowing what you feel about all of this what are you going to do before these regulations go into place? >> well look we're not goin

reed, those of us who lived in sort of rural areas and were on reserve duty. it wasn't tricare exactly. it was more like try to find care. and this takes care of that. what we're offering now is a system that provides a network that is robust enough to care not only for the member when they are on their civilian side, but also for the families when the member is deployed. that's exactly what we're trying to do here and do it in a way that is fiscally sustainable. medical readiness are critical as sects of the overall readiness mission. if we can do this with a tricare choice system, then i think this is a good step forward. >> thank you very much. >> thank you. >> thank you, mr. chairman. >> to my good friend steve bouer who i used to sit next to, i agree with you except i'm more concerned about today's war than i am the war after next. right now is when we're having the problems that we're having. and we had a hearing last week. we had schlesinger, we had george schultz, madeleine albright. and they reminisced about what our capabilities were at that time, an

this may be a way to do that. >> senator jack reed, thank you very much. before that senator john mccain. we have new polling. we were discussing this on friday. it was this issue, a majority of americans support what the president is trying to do there is basically mixed feelings about whether there is confidence in the president's strategy. i think it goes to this where i think americans realize they want to get rid of the threat but they assume once we get ritt of it we'll never get out. >> well, they have learned. they watched the news since 2003. they hear republicans blaming democrats for getting out of iraq too early. we heard that today. it the democrat blaming republicans for getting into iraq in the first place. and they sit here and here we are 11, 12 years later we're worse off. you're right chuck. what you heard is what i heard and sure 300, 400 speeches -- nobody wants us to go back in there. yes we may have to put boots on the ground. but they don't want america fighting this battle anymore. japan has a stake in it. saudi arabia, the whole w

>> that is correct, senator reed. one of the things that happen with our proposal for the reserve components is any time they're mobilizing or they're being activated, the family members normally would go without coverage. there's a period of time that they just don't have coverage when that happens. this will solve that problem for them because it won't have to worry about losing, going long periods of time without coverage, coverage of healthcare, when the reserve component member activate and deactivate. >> senator reed, that's an excellent question. that strategic reserve that we built over time really wasn't prepared operationally. we know that. you funded it. you did a lot of things to bring it up, round to out, to make the total force that better in the 13 years of war but with regard to the undesirable choices that reservists and their families had to make upon those mobilizations to be part of the contingency operations, you're absolutely right, senator. so when we looked at this and said with regard to that

it was about a woman named sally reed. she was divorced when her son was -- of tender years, so sally got custody. when the boy got to be a teenager, the father said he now needs to be prepared for a man's world, so i want him to live with me. sally thought that was a bad idea. to cut part of the story short, the boy one day took out one of his father's many rifles and killed himself. so sally wanted to be appointed administer of his estate, not because there was any monetary gain, but for sentimental reasons. he had a guitar, some clothes, a record collection, a small bank account. that was it. her former husband applied to be administrator a couple of weeks later. and sally thought she would get the appointment, because she applied first. but the probate court judge said the law leaves me no choice. it reads as between persons equally entitled to administer a decedent's estate, males must be preferred to females. just that simple. well, let me compare 1971, when sally's case was decided by a unanimous court headed by chi

. >> senator reed. >> three quick questions. first, falling off this discussion of guantanamo as a accelerator of terrorist activity or deterrents, mr. rasmussen, you mentioned in your testimony, guantanamo is consciously used by a host of terrorist organizations, to prop began da. is that a fact? >> purely just judging by an ek doe tall evidence and looking at the material the terrorist organizations put out. we see something in english language, we assess they are trying to reach potential terrorists or extremists here in the united states or western european countries and we see the issue of guantanamo featured in that propaganda. senator king asked a good question. we need to draw the line more tightly between an ek doe tall evidence and what we can say with more precision about recruitment efforts. but i would say this. the terrorist landscape we face right now is increasingly characterized by actors who are not necessarily affiliated or tied to terrorist hierchy or leadership. they operate on their own in many cases. in ma
