[00:19.00]I think this is indeed a reminder of the tragedy and the tragic dangers that we face day in and day out both here at that home as well as abroad.
[00:19.50]我认为这场悲剧实际上提醒我们；在国内外每天都存在着这种威胁。
[00:20.00]I will tell you up front, I have no intentions of discussing today what comes next,
[00:20.50]我要告诉大家，我无意讨论今天接下来会发生什么，
[00:21.00]but make no mistake about it, your armed forces are ready.

[00:34.50]而且会对些次恐怖活动，此次一系列史无前例的恐怖活动采取复仇行动。
[00:35.00]We call upon the entire world to step up and help, because terrorism is a common enemy to all,

[00:37.00]but who can be next? Step forward and let us hold accountable and punish those that have perpetrated this attack.

[00:41.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:Thank you very much.
[00:41.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：非常感谢。
[00:42.00]We'll take a few questions and then we'll adjourn. Charlie.
[00:42.50]接下来我们接受提问，然后休会。查理。
[00:43.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, did you have any inkling at all, in any way, that something of this nature and something of this scope might be planned?
[00:43.50]问：部长先生，你是暗示事件的实质和事件如此的规模可能是计划好的吗？
[00:44.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:Charlie, we don't discuss intelligence matters.
[00:44.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：查理，我们不讨论情报方面的事。
[00:45.00]Q:I see. And how - how would you respond if you find out who did this?
[00:45.50]问：我明白了，那么怎样……你们会怎样处理肇事者，如果找出他们的话？
[00:46.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:Obviously, the president of the United States has spoken on that subject,
[00:46.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：很明显美国总统已谈论过这个问题，
[00:47.00]and those are issues that he will address in good time. Yes?
[00:47.50]他会在适当的时候发表意见。不是吗？
[00:48.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, we are getting reports from CNN and others that there are bombs exploding in Kabul,
[00:48.50]问：部长先生，我们从美国有线新闻网络得知阿富汗的坎布尔发生了炸弹爆炸事件。
[00:49.00]Afghanistan. Are we, at the moment, striking back? And if so, is the target Osama bin Laden and his organization?
[00:49.50]是我们在此时给予的还击吗？如果是的话，目标是奥斯玛·本·拉登和他的组织吗？
[00:50.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:I've seen those reports. They - in no way in the United States government connected to those explosions.

[00:50.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：我已经看到过这些报道。它们同美国政府决无任何关系。
[00:51.00]Q:What about Osama bin Laden, do you suspect him as the prime suspect in this?
[00:51.50]问：你认为奥斯玛·本·拉登是主要嫌疑犯吗？
[00:52.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:It's not the time for discussions like that.
[00:52.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：现在不是讨论这事的时候。
[00:53.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, you said you could not be specific about casualties.
[00:53.50]问：部长先生，你说你不能确定伤亡人数，
[00:54.00]Can you give us some characterization, whether it's dozens, hundreds in the building?
[00:54.50]你能告诉我们大厦里有几十人还是几百人？
[00:55.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:Well, we know there were large number, many dozens, in the aircraft that flew at full power,
[00:55.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：好的，我们所知道的是一个巨大的数字，相当多，飞机以与升降，
[00:56.00]steering directly into the - between, I think, the first and second floor of the - opposite the helipad.
[00:56.50]相反的方向全速撞入，我想，是撞进第一层和第二层。
[00:57.00]You've seen it. There cannot be any survivors; it just would be beyond comprehension.
[00:57.50]你已经看到了，不可能有幸存者，简直是难以想象。
[00:58.00]There are a number of people that they've not identified by name,
[00:58.50]已有大量的人还没被识别身份，
[00:59.00]but identified as being dead, and there are a number of causalities.
[00:59.50]或已被证实死亡，伤亡人数相当多。
[-1:00.00]But the FBI has secured the site. And the - information takes time to come.
[-1:-0.50]但联邦调查局已保护这一地区。消息不断传来。
[-1:-1.00]People have been lifted out and taken away in ambulances.
[-1:-1.50]遇难者已被运上来，用救护车运走了。
[-1:-2.00]And the numbers will be calculated, and it will not be a few.
[-1:-2.50]伤亡数字会被统计好，它绝不会是一个小数字。
[-1:-3.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, could you tell us what you saw?
[-1:-3.50]问：部长先生，你能告诉我们你看到了什么？
[-1:-4.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, do you consider what happened today, both in New York and here, an act of war?
[-1:-4.50]问：部长先生，你认为今天在纽约和这里所发生的是一种战争行为么？
[-1:-5.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:There is no question but that the attack against the United States of America today was a vicious,
[-1:-5.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：毫无疑问，今天对美国的攻击是恶毒的，精心策划的，
[-1:-6.00]well-coordinated, massive attack against the United States of America. What words the lawyers will use to characterize it is for them.
[-1:-6.50]大规模的攻击。只能用律师的专业术语才能描述此事。
[-1:-7.00]Q:Does that mean that the U.S. is at war then?
[-1:-7.50]问：那意味着美国正处于战争状态吗？
[-1:-8.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, you said that the Pentagon would be open for business tomorrow.
[-1:-8.50]问：部长先生，你说过五角大楼明天就会开始正常工作。
[-1:-9.00]What kind of assurances can you give the people who work here at the building that the building will be safe?
[-1:-9.50]你能给公众什么样的保证；谁将在此工作？这里会安全吗？
[-1:10.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:A terrorist can attack at any time at any place using any technique.
[-1:10.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：恐怖分子能采取任一手段在任一时间攻击任一地点。
[-1:11.00]It is physically impossible to defend at every time in every place against every technique.
[-1:11.50]要在所有时间在每一地点预防任一手段的恐怖袭击是完全不可能的。
[-1:12.00]It is not possible to give guarantees. The people who work in this building do so voluntarily.
[-1:12.50]给予保证是不可能的。在此工作的人们是自愿的。
[-1:13.00]They're brave people, and they do their jobs well.
[-1:13.50]他们是勇敢的，他们工作也做得很好。
[-1:14.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, can you give a sense of what happened? What did you see when you left your office,
[-1:14.50]问：部长先生，你对所发生的一切有什么样的看法？在你离开办公室，
[-1:15.00]ran down to the site and apparently helped people on stretchers and then returned to the command center?
[-1:15.50]跑到出事地点，帮伤员扶上担架，然后又回到指挥中心这段时间内你看到了什么？
[-1:16.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:I felt the shock of the airplane hitting the building,
[-1:16.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：我对飞机撞上大楼感到非常震惊，
[-1:17.00]went through the building and them out into the area, and they were bringing bodies out that had been injured,

[-1:17.50]我走出大楼，来到出事地点，人们正从大楼中抢救伤员，
[-1:18.00]most of which were alive and moving, but seriously injured. And a lot of volunteers were doing a terrific job helping to bring them out of the buildings and get them into stretchers and into ambulances and into airlifts.
[-1:18.50]他们中大部分都是活的，都在动，但他们伤得很重，很多自愿者将他们运出大楼，抬上担架，送上救护车和直升飞机。
[-1:19.00]Q:Mr.Secretary, can you tell us how many of the dead were soldiers and how many were civilians?
[-1:19.50]问：部长先生，你能告诉我们有多少死者是军人，多少是市民？
[-1:20.00]Have you been able to determine that?
[-1:20.50]你已经确定了么？
[-1:21.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, today we saw military planes both in New York and in Washington.
[-1:21.50]问：部长先生，今天我们在纽约和华盛顿都看到飞机。
[-1:22.00]How much more of a military presence will we see, now that this incident has occurred, for the next week?
[-1:22.50]下周我们还会看到多少军用飞机，因为事故已经发生了？
[-1:23.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:Those kinds of decisions are made day to day.
[-1:23.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：那些决策天天都在制定。
[-1:24.00]It is correct that we had aircraft
[-1:24.50]确实有飞机，
[-1:25.00]flying protective missions at various places in the United States today.And they will do that as appropriate.
[-1:25.50]在执行安全使命今天在美国不同地方。他们将会恰当地执勤。
[-1:26.00]Q:Mr.Secretary, what do you say to the American people who may have questions on how something so coordinated has been carried out against this nation?
[-1:26.50]问：部长先生，如果美国人民问你针对我国的袭击事件策划得怎会如此精密，你会作何回答？
[-1:27.00]What do you say to them who might not have confidence that our intelligence and security are what they should have been?
[-1:27.50]对那些我们的情报和安全没有信心的人民，你会作何回答？
[-1:28.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:I say to them that the president of the United States will be making some remarks to them this evening that will address those subjects.
[-1:28.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：我会对他们说，总统将在今晚作相关主题的发言。
[-1:29.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, you've declared - the Pentagon has declared Threatcon Delta for forces around the world.
[-1:29.50]问：部长先生，你已表明——五角大楼已宣布在全世界的军队进入最高的警备状态。
[-1:30.00]Could you tell me why? Have you received any threats? Or has anyone claimed credit for this?
[-1:30.50]你能告诉我原因吗？你已收到威胁了吗？还是有人对此万分确信？
[-1:31.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:We have in fact declared Force Protection Condition Delta and a condition of high alert,
[-1:31.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：实际上我们已宣布进入FPCD状态，实际上，是最高警戒状态，
[-1:32.00]indeed, the highest alert. We did so almost immediately upon the attacks, and it is still in force.
[-1:32.50]我们在遭受袭击之后就立即这样做了，现在也处于此状态。
[-1:33.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, were there threats issued against other U.S. facilities elsewhere in the world today?
[-1:33.50]问：部长先生，今天在世界其它地方美国的机构遭到威胁了吗？
[-1:34.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:I don't know that there's a day that's gone by since I've been in this job that there haven't been threats somewhere in the world to some facility somewhere.
[-1:34.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：在过去的一天里，我还没有接到在世界其它地方的美国机构受到威胁的消息。
[-1:35.00]It's a - it's one of the complexities of the intelligence business that you have to sort through those kinds of things.
[-1:35.50]这是一件需要用心处理的复杂工作之一，你不得不将那些事分类。
[-1:36.00]But we don't get into the specifics.
[-1:36.50]但我们还没有进入到细节问题。
[-1:37.00]Yes? You had your hand up? Yes?
[-1:37.50]什么事？你举起手来？什么事？
[-1:38.00]Q:Mr. Secretary, there were rumors earlier in the day that the plane which crashed in Pennsylvania had been brought down by the United States,
[-1:38.50]问：部长先生，今天早些时候有这样的谣言；在宾夕法尼亚州坠毁的飞机是被美国，
[-1:39.00]either shot down or in some other manner.
[-1:39.50]打下来或其它方式弄下来的。
[-1:40.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:We have absolutely no information that any U.S. aircraft shot down any other aircraft today.

[-1:40.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：今天我们绝对没有收到美国飞机击落另一架美国飞机的信息。
[-1:41.00]Q:I wonder if we could just ask Senator Levin one thing, Senator, if that's all right.
[-1:41.50]问：我想我们是否能列文参议员一件事，参议员，如果可以的话。
[-1:42.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:Senator Levin, you and other Democrats in Congress have voiced fear that you simply don't have enough money for the large increase in defense that the Pentagon is seeking,
[-1:42.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：列文参议员，你和参议院的其他民主党人已表示担忧：你们没有五角大厦所需求在防卫上急剧增加的足够资金，
[-1:43.00]especially for missile defense, and you fear that you'll have to dip into the Social Security funds to pay for it.
[-1:43.50]特别是导弹防御方面，同时你人也担忧会不得不占用社会安全基金。
[-1:44.00]Does this sort of thing convince you that an emergency exists in this country to increase defense spending,
[-1:44.50]是否这种事让你们确信：在美国发生的突发事件增加了国家防卫费用，
[-1:45.00]to dip into Social Security, if necessary, to pay for defense spending, increase defense spending?
[-1:45.50]如果需要的话，会用社会安全基金支付不断上涨的国家防卫费用。
[-1:46.00]Sen.Levin:One thing where the committee was unanimous on, among many,
[-1:46.50]列文参议员：在众多事中，委员会毫无异议的一件就是，
[-1:47.00]many other things, was that the - we authorized the full request of the president,
[-1:47.50]我们完全同意总统的所有请求，
[-1:48.00]including the $18 billion. So I would say that Democrats and Republicans have seen the need for the request.
[-1:48.50]包括180亿美元。因此我认为民主党人和共和党人已看到了此种需求的必要。
[-1:49.00]Q:Mr.Secretary, could you describe what steps are being taken, defensive measures,
[-1:49.50]问：部长先生，你能说说在武装防卫之处会采取什么样的步骤和防御方法？
[-1:50.00]beyond force protection, and whether there's been any operational planning for homeland defense and as to -
[-1:50.50]是否已有任何正在实施的保卫家园的计划？还有……
[-1:51.00]Sec.Rumsfeld:Those aren't the kinds of things that one discusses.
[-1:51.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：那些不是一个人讨论的事。
[-1:52.00]Q:Sir, the perpetrators of the Khobar Towers bombing were never found;
[-1:52.50]问：先生，Khobar大楼爆炸事件的肇事者还没有找到：
[-1:53.00]the Cole bombing as well. What assurances or what confidence do you have that the perpetrators of this act will be found?
[-1:53.50]科尔号爆炸事件也一样，你有什么样的保证和信心确定会找到这次事故的肇事者？
[-1:54.00]Sec.Rumsfeld:All one can offer by way of assurance is a seriousness of purpose.
[-1:54.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：我一个人能提供的担保只是我会以严肃去对待。
[-1:55.00]We're still taking bodies out of this building, so I would say that that's a little premature.
[-1:55.50]我们还正在从大楼中拯救伤员，所以说这个还有些为时过早。
[-1:56.00]Q:Mr. Secretary?
[-1:56.50]问：部长先生？
[-1:57.00]Q:You've talked about, and others at the podium have talked about being ready,
[-1:57.50]问：你已讨论过，指挥部那边已在讨论准备就绪的事，
[-1:58.00]the military is ready, General Shelton said. And we understand the Navy has dispatched two carriers and some guided-missile cruisers and destroyers and a couple of Marine Corps helicopter amphibious ships,
[-1:58.50]谢尔顿将军说军队已处于备战状态，我们知道海军已派遣了两架航空母舰，一些导弹驱逐巡洋舰、攻击舰和两艘海空两用舰，
[-1:59.00]such as the Bataan - it's not the Bataan - here and to New York. Can you tell us if that's true?
[-1:59.50]从巴丹半岛——不是巴丹半岛——到纽约和这里。你能告诉我们那是真的吗？
[-2:00.00]And also any other things you can share with us about how the United States military is preparing to take on whatever in the next few days?
[-2:-0.50]你还能跟我们说说，美国军队在接下来的几天准备做什么吗？
[-2:-1.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:We don't make announcements about ship deployments.
[-2:-1.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：我们没有有关动用舰队的声明。
[-2:-2.00]Q:Mr. Secretary?
[-2:-2.50]问：陪长先生？
[-2:-3.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:Can I describe them?
[-2:-3.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：我能描述吗？
[-2:-4.00]Q:Yeah.
[-2:-4.50]问：是的。
[-2:-5.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:Why don't we let the secretary of the Army, [-2:-5.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：为什么我们不让军队秘书，
[-2:-6.00]who was out there with me a few minutes ago and has been talking to the incident commander on the site.
[-2:-6.50]几分钟前和我一道在外且同事故指挥谈过话的军队秘书讲讲呢？
[-2:-7.00]Sec. White:I think it's fair to say at this point that the fire is contained, and will shortly.
[-2:-7.50]怀特秘书：我想此时这样说是很公正的；火势已被慢慢地、有效地控制了，
[-2:-8.00]if not already, be sufficiently controlled to allow entry into the building.
[-2:-8.50]进入到大楼的通道已被疏通。
[-2:-9.00]That entry will be supervised by the FBI, who are in charge of the site,
[-2:-9.50]通道将由在消防部协助的负责管理此处的联邦调查局监管，
[-2:10.00]assisted by the fire departments that are present.
[-2:10.50]在他们的帮助下火势已控制了。
[-2:11.00]We, on the Army side, will support them as they go in the building and search for casualties and bring them out,
[-2:11.50]我们站在军队的一边，支持他们进入到大楼搜寻和抢救伤亡人员出去，
[-2:12.00]then we will support them in dealing with that. That's what's going on on the ground.
[-2:12.50]我们会支持他们处理此事。这就是那里所发生的事。
[-2:13.00]Sec.Rumsfeld:We'll take one last question.
[-2:13.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：这是最后一个问题
[-2:14.00]Q:Is the government operating under the assumption that this attack is done,
[-2:14.50]问：设想袭击之下，美国政府会照常运作，
[-2:15.00]or is it poised or bracing for more action?
[-2:15.50]泰然处之还是采取更多行动呢？
[-2:16.00]Sec. Rumsfeld:The government is certainly aware that it's difficult to know when attacks are concluded.
[-2:16.50]拉姆斯费尔德部长：政府很明白很难明确攻击何时会结束。
