would be to draw the moderates together and back them up as one force. And we

we forcefully engaged in empowering right moderate rebels earlier in this conflict today we would have more and better options before us but

the enemy, but in helping them form a stable moderate government once ISIS is

to be trained from the moderate forces in Syria here are we really at the stage where were beginning to assess and

moderate forces we help to unite and build up today. To that end, my strategy

why I articulated early on conflict that the U. S. needed to identify moderates and Syria we can with

wore openly and repeatedly warn that if we did not find moderate and elements on the ground that we could equipment arm that

you're ready for for him to order air strikes into Syria absolutely I think it's critical that we do that if you're in serious about defeating ISIS you

that are being slaughtered right in Syria and Iraq we had he had its shots aside Christian

we should create a transition fund that will assist a transition to a moderate transitional government in Syria in the aftermath of

from extremist forces. And the strategic elements in both cases are the same. We

carefully and property vet that improperly vetted elements of the opposition the way we should only do this if we are able to identify rebel groups that

be a multi faceted plan to help the Syrian people get rid of aside and replace them with a secular and moderate government they deserve and

could be up to million to three million in the next six months to a year and his kingdom could fall in is a moderating influence a good ally doesn't Syria in

Syria and Iraq we need seriousness to destroy us and when you do whatever it takes militarily to accomplish that so
