That. and again, if you look at the data that syria, people from syria have been overwhelmingly welcomed in texas, a conservative state. when you look at it you should say maybe we need to hit the pause button and change things and our intelligence in checking out things is very hard to do in syria right now because who are you going to call and who will you ask? it is different in other countries. >> the problem with that argument it suggests that our system is somehow the same as paris and fra...

Airports that i dont want to go into, because i dont want to disclose the vulnerabilities, but there are many. as we talked before on other nights, the fbi is just so terribly undermanned and underwomaned that its going to be really huge. theyre going to be working 18-hour shifts and that wont be enough either. >> and i know you have questions about comeys claims last week. i dont think they let me speak for all women, but you can say undermanned. its all inclusive. >> i know, but i must say the...

Certainly the system is much better than what would have happened in the sharm el-sheikh security but its far from fallible. >> i think thats right. and i think that the range of hypotheticals or the range of vulnerabilities in a nation like ours is someone infinite. first of all, tellingly, the department of homeland security has not followed up with the state department global threat. so there is a difference between this sort of obvious nature of what the state department is telling everyone ...

Cheering after the world trade centers came down, that he saw this on television. no one has been able to verify this as far as we can tell and going over our own materials, it did not happen. >> andrea, i think these are extraordinarily irresponsible comments. one of the things that we have been for the most part in this country very lucky that we have not seen domestic radicalization but it has been pointed out, the challenge we face is not only the potential of someone coming into the country...

Terrorist attacks. the most we get out of them -- the most excitement out of him is when hes attacking republicans. its time to focus on whats going to keep america safe. i had the privilege to serve on a task force for six months to combat the flow of foreign fighters and terrorists specifically related to this new isis threat. we spent six months. we dove in deep. and identified a lot of our vulnerabilities. we came up with 32 findings and over 50 recommendations to really close some gaping ho...

With our allies in the region, to keep our interests and allies safe and also to address the homegrown extreme thats happening here. we have very real vulnerabilities. our task force identified them. im focused on getting solutions right now and not all the political theater. >> thank you for your time. very urgent time, very urgent need for solutions, absolutely. lets get back to our other big breaking story at this hour. the attack ongoing, an ongoing situation at the hotel in mali in west a...

They have read what snowden put out, the nsa vulnerabilities, so they have learned from that. more importantly, we are not doing the hard work we used to of human intelligence, basically the old-fashioned espionage, double agent trade craft. i ran operations in mali in 2002-2003. we were actually running what we call bilateral relationships with the mali and thomas, thats the best way to do it. you actually work with the local indigenous folks to help them develop essentially clandestine network...

Lets -- i dont think the productive conversation, though, is about blaming the united states president for the crisis triggered by a murderous dictator in syria plus civil wars by various factions. so i think you have to have a sense of proportionality here, and i think what you need to also talk about when you talk about the refugee crisis and terror in the united states is a very big question that congress didnt address yesterday. its that we have visa programs that allow people in without eve...

Saying. but in the current climate, it bears repeating. muslim-americans are working every day on the front lines of the fight against radicalization. another challenge is how to strike the right balance of protecting privacy and security. encryption of mobile communications presents a particularly tough problem. we should take the concerns of law enforcement and counterterrorism professionals seriously. they have warned that impenetrable encryption may prevent them from accessing terrorist comm...

They are amazing law enforcement but they are not everywhere all the time. awareness is the number one thing that is going to save people. and then right there when he said that it is almost like a false hope that telling people that new york city is the safest city in the world. these individuals, their m.o., these people that use terrorism, they work in and around our vulnerabilities to get in and attack. and it doesnt matter how strong this country is. it doesnt matter how strong the nypd is....
