I thought he was right on a few points, but not on others. He's right that Yemen cannot negotiate with terrorists, it just won't work, they don't understand logic or reason, only nutty religious dogma and faith. But the fact that he almost refused to acknowledge blowback was kinda lame. He could have at least acknowledged it and said "hey it happens, but that's what's part of war" or something, but he completely ignored it altogether and I thought that was fail. Overall I thought it was a tough and challenging but altogether decent interview. Mark gave him a hard time, and he pushed back, and in the end both parties were satisfied and essentially shook hands and parted. I liked that.
