You know one of the hardest things to do militarily is -- a tactical withdrawal which is what -- in the middle over all over the country and and I started writing this before all of the green on blue violence started to occur in the murders.

And it -- figures heavily into this book.

You know so the question is and I we talked about this after violent and it's ridiculous that nobody was ever fired.

Nobody ever got fired first after 9/11 nobody at the FBI -- over -- CIA.

And now we're gonna get through this thing Ghazi deal and -- is getting fired because they're not gonna tell us who blew it who said no one -- -- are gonna find out well.

Anything about and and -- mean it's it's almost attempts to wanna get on in my doing so.

Well worse because -- diet and Watergate ninth seeded and that is why you feeding frenzy with the press over someone wanted to -- this happens army just -- back and there's this lack of interest.
