Lt. Gen. Scott Miller, 18th General to Lead Afghan War: No End Date in Mind

Speaking at his confirmation hearing before the Senate Committee on Armed Services, Miller warned against talking about “turning points” in the war.
“I can’t guarantee you a timeline or an end date — I know that going into this position — or offer necessarily a turning point, unless there is one, unless there’s something to report back and something has changed,” he said.

“This is about protecting U.S. citizens, when you go right to the heart of the issue,” Miller said.
