RUSH EXCERPT:
FORD JR.: "To Byron’s point, interfering with and impairing navigation, commercial navigation in that region of the world is really, I think, the final catalyst here. Separate, but apart from that is how do you ensure that we don’t widen this conflict and worsen this conflict? I thought the attacks, our response rather today, was long overdue. I agree with Byron that the sense and implication in his remarks that we should have done this earlier. I don’t have access to all of the intelligence. Obviously, None of us do. But I hope that the president can be taken at his word going forward that we won’t allow these kinds of attacks to impede commercial navigation."
