- I want to ask you alittle bit more broadly

about foreign policy.

I know Joe Biden has been critical.

I know that's politics, butJoe Biden's been critical

of this administration's foreign policy.

And then we have the squadthat we hear so much about,

a lot of what the President said,

anti-Israel rhetoriccoming from these folks.

What do you make of thatas Secretary of State,

and what that message sendsto folks around the world,

especially Israel and some of our allies?

- Look, when a handfulof members of Congress

say things that are inthe tone of the fact

that they blame America for so much

of the trouble in the world,that's deeply troubling.

As I stare at the problems,

whether it's work that we'redoing in the Middle East

or work we're doing to solve the problem

of HIV AIDS in Africa orthe reconciliation effort

that we're underway with in Afghanistan,

I watch America, I watch its motives.

We are a force for good in theworld, not a force for evil.

We are not the cause of these conflicts,

and I hear these members of Congress

talk about this as if Americahad generated this trouble

and blame America first for these things

is deeply inconsistentwith not only our founding

and our tradition, but withthe facts on the ground.
