Brigadier General Robert Holmes on Talk to Jazeera

In this episode of Talk to Jazeera, Al Jazeera’s David Foster talks to Brigadier General Robert Holmes, the deputy director of operations for US Central Command.

US Central Command runs all US military activity in the regions where they say they are fighting a ‘war on terror’.

David Foster asks him about Iraq, where the two-month-old security plan is struggling under the weight of daily violence, Afghanistan, which is now said to be more dangerous for civilians than it was under the Taliban, and the Horn of Africa, where constant instability has led to fears that the region will become a haven for extremists.
