EXCERPT:
McKENZIE: "So, first of all, the threat from ISIS is extremely real. We’ve been talking about this for several days. We saw it actually manifest itself here just in the last few hours with an actual attack. We believe it is their desire to continue those attacks and we expect those attacks to continue. And we’re doing everything we can to prepare for those attacks. That includes reaching out to the Taliban who are actually providing the outer security cordon around the airfield, to make sure they know what we expect them to do to protect us, and we will continue to coordinate with them as they go forward. We are continuing to bring people onto the airfield. We just brought a number of buses aboard the airfield over the last couple or three hours. So we’ll continue to process, we'll continue to flow people out. The plan is designed to operate while under stress and under attack, and we will continue to do that. We will coordinate very carefully to make sure that it’s safe for American citizens to come to the airfield. If it’s not, we’ll tell them to hold and then we'll work other ways to try to get them to the airfield. But I think our mission remains, we're still committed at flowing people out, up until we terminate operations at some point towards the end of the month. But I think we have the ability to do actually all of those things as we move forward."
