Read the following speech excerpt and then select the correct answer to the question below: President George W. Bush’s speech to

the troops on the USS Abraham Lincoln Our mission continues. Al-Qaida is wounded, not destroyed. The scattered cells of the terrorist network still operate in many nations, and we know from daily intelligence that they continue to plot against free people. The proliferation of deadly weapons remains a serious danger. The enemies of freedom are not idle, and neither are we. Our government has taken unprecedented measures to defend the homeland — and we will continue to hunt down the enemy before he can strike. The war on terror is not over, yet it is not endless. We do not know the day of final victory, but we have seen the turning of the tide. No act of the terrorists will change our purpose, or weaken our resolve, or alter their fate. Their cause is lost. Free nations will press on to victory. Other nations in history have fought in foreign lands and remained to occupy and exploit. Americans, following a battle, want nothing more than to return home. And that is your direction tonight. After service in the Afghan and Iraqi theaters of war — after 100,000 miles, on the longest carrier deployment in recent history — you are homeward bound. Some of you will see new family members for the first time — 150 babies were born while their fathers were on the Lincoln. Your families are proud of you, and your nation will welcome you. Which line from the text suggests the president believes the war effort has had successes but is not quite complete?

This speech, titled as "Mission Accomplished", was an address that was passed through television on May 3rd, 2003 and that was given by President George W. Bush to the soldiers and military personnel on the USS Abraham Lincoln, which was sailing towards the United States, after a long spell in the Middle East, particularly Iraq and Afghanistan, following the 9/11 attacks. In this speech, President Bush is not just welcoming back the soldiers who have been away from home for so long, but he also explains the reasons for the deployment of these men and women towards foreign lands and also, in a sense, informs the people that the war against terrorism, especially Al-Qaeda, continues, as this organization is still very much alive and still posses a threath to America and the free world. The lines where President Bush makes it clear to his audience that he believes these military actions have been successful, but at the same time need to continue to give a real closure to the issue, are the following: The war on terror is not over, yet it is not endless. We do not know the day of final victory, but we have seen the turning of the tide.
