I've been watching the show, and I didn't hear Matthews say that. Wait for the transcript.
" I've been watching the show, and I didn't hear Matthews say that.'
I definitely heard Matthews say that insurgents were people ( or possibly folks, I can't remember his exact term) who didn't agree with us.
That much I can vouch for.
I don't know if he actually said they weren't bad people ,but, that was his inference.
