What will our leaders do about this . Already the lines are being drawn. The president , president obama, Hillary Clinton and bernie sanders, to them it is a Law Enforcement issue. Within hours they were calling for gun control. Much was made of the type of weapon the terrorist used and the fact that he had bought it legally days before the attack. Gun violence, they said, and hate. Donald trump had a very different response. He had already called for a temporary ban on foreign muslims coming to america and quickly linked the outrage to islamic terror. He sharply criticized the president and Hillary Clinton for refusing to do the same. To him, it is terror, take action, forceful action. Both europe and america are forced to confront the same problem. The presence of a large immigrant population, some of whom hold values directly opposed to western society and theyre killing us in our own country. On this monday, june 13th we surely want the president and cabinet to recognize the threat and tell us who and what is behind it. No double talk, please. No bending over backwards to be sensitive. Tell us clearly how you plan to kill the scourge of islamic terror. Here is what donald trump side precisely on fox and friends this morning, what we need to do to fight terror, roll tape. We have generals that feel we can win this thing so fast and so strong, but we have to be furious. For a short period of time and were not doing it. So ridiculous. Stuart joining us now is genera fourstar generally. General. I want to repeat what he said, we have generals who say we can win this thing we have to be furious. What say you. The reality is this, isis has established a sanctuary in syria from which all of their operations are conducted and motivate followers to kill, sadly the attack in orlando. Theyve been in the sanctuary since 2012. We have not taken that out. The major lesson after 9 11 was simply this, we have permitted the sanctuary in afghanistan for years even after they bombed our embassies in africa. The result was in fact 9 11. This sanctuary should have been gone a long time ago. We have capability to do it the arabs stood up and said theyre willing to do it. The president of the United States refused to do it and even hes passing the responsibility of destroying isis to the next president. Thats how irresponsible we are here. Stuart do you think that the American Public would get behind a serious and significant military attack on isis . Yes, absolutely. If we make the case, they already understand that isis is killing americans and also killing europeans, and were throwing out a lot of false issues. Its not about the guns or the means that isis uses. If they couldnt get an ak47 they would find another weapon, a bomb or whatever to do their killing for them. France has the most restrictive gun laws in europe and isis had no problem getting weapons there to kill french citizens. That is a false issue. The issue is, isis itself, their ideology and their determination to commit jihad in the middle east, but around the world and it must be stopped. If you took serious military action against isis in its own strong hold there would be significant, as you say, collateral damage, civilians would be killed in large numbers. Are we prepared for that . Civilians would not be killed in large numbers. It would take a ground force to destroy isis. We cannot destroy them by air, we can only use an air campaign to support that. And when a ground force is there, theyre not going to kill innocent civilians. They are going to safeguard the civilians. Yes, some would be killed, im not suggesting that that would not happen, but that would not be the intent. That would only be the byproduct much combat operations. If we were part of an arab coalition, we would certainly have tremendous influence on their behavior on the battlefield. Now, youre a military guy, do you have any thoughts on what we should do inside americas borders . Well, i rely on the federal bureau of investigation. I mean, clearly, intelligence is the crucial denominator here. We have People Living in our communities who are radicalizing themselves, motivated or possibly directed by isis. When that behavior starts to change, people must notice it and must report on it. And we have to encourage that, good intelligence is absolutely the crucial denominator here. It can get out of control. Look it in brussels, belgium, there were 800 sympathizers, the police estimated, who would not report or identify known, known radical islamists who were living in their community. We never want Something Like that to happen in america. So we need vigilance here and we also need an educated public. We need to talk to them frankly, stuart, about what this is. It is radical islam. We have to explain the ideology to them. We have to make sure that people understand what this movement is all about and were not doing that. General jack keane, thank you for joining us today, we appreciate it. Good talking to you, stuart. Stuart we are going to step away from the terrorist news for just a moment. We have this, microsoft is buying linkedin, theyre going to pay 26. 2 billion. Linkedin stock is soaring on that news as you might expect because the Purchase Price is 196 per share. And microsoft is paying all cash. That leaves twitter. What happens to them . Is anybody interested in twitter . That stock is up about 6 premarket. Lots of developments following what is a huge deal, microsoft buying linkedin for 26 billion. Well obviously have more on this, including how twitter starts off the day and linkedin at 9 30 when the market ohpens. Get back to the terror story, thats what it is, its an islamic terror story. Ashley we do know as we delve into the background of omar mateen. Two separate incidents the in 2013, coworkers raised a red flag, saying this guy had ties to terrorism. They interviewed and couldnt find a credible link. In 2014 connections to a bomber tubar. He was on a terrorist watch list, stuart, at the time, but because those investigations were dropped, he was removed. We know he bought these guns, ar15 assault weapon and the. 9 millimeter handgun in the last week, last 12 days, he did it legally, he had no criminal record. He worked as a Security Guard for a Security Company and one of his coworkers constantly told the people who ran that company, this guy is dangerous. He is unhinged. I do not want to work with him anymore. He says they did nothing, he quit. He said this individual, omar mateen bombarded him with texts and phone calls harassing him. So certainly the background of this guy pointed to someone very unstable and also linked to marcus robinson. Marcus robinson was the man who turned to islam after being a fbi informant, was sent to jail and is believed to have radicalized 36 prisoners while he was in jail. Hes since got out of jail, but runs a website that uses let me just finish, of which we know that mateen was a part of that website. To me, its remarkable how all of these flags still did know the result in anything other than questioning twice. Stuart its Political Correctness. We must be sensitive to muslims, therefore, we cannot pursue muslims and cleared of terror. Despite the fact declaring war on us. Also in the apartment complex where he lived, he never talked to them or the neighbors apparently. Were going to stop being so sensitive, dont we . We do. Were pretending and we heard that from the president and from Hillary Clinton yesterday, we are pretending this isnt happening. To blame this on guns is like blaming benghazi on a youtube video. It keeps americans from being able to address the reality of what is occurring here and let me just say, as a gay woman, to hear the argument that this is a hate crime is obscene in that theyre now trying to separate out americans who happen to be gay, victims of the terror attack, from the heroes at fort hood, from the victims there at San Bernardino, from every other terror victim around the world, the fact is, this is an attack on americans that their attempts to disconnect the dots even through yesterday and that we do stand together whether you be gay or straight, black or white, latino. This if exhibits all americans and that attack yesterday confirms that and remarkable, the president , the commanderinchief is still effectively covering, in a certain way, for the people who are doing that. Stuart tammy bruce, stay there. We want more from you this hour. Come in jeff dewitt, trump guy. The left is all over donald trump this morning, for example, they say that mr. Trumps temporary ban on muslims coming into the country would not have stopped this guy, therefore, trump is wrong. They theyre depends how far you go back. You know, from what we know right now, i dont want to be wrong in saying this, it looks like his father had previously pledged allegiance to afghani taliban, depends how far you go back. The bottom line, you have to do something. The politicians in this country, way to get reelected, do nothing, say nothing, and its a terrible event. We cant just say its terrible and go back to life as normal. The only way to do it is to address the problem at its root and quite frankly, donald trump is the only person offering a solution to do that. Maybe you dont agree with the solution. Come up with a better one. Dont just attack the person offering a solution and i heard Hillary Clinton about 40 minutes ago do an interview this morning and her solution was, well, we need to do more to get people on a list so that local Law Enforcement can watch them. Then she blames the Republican Congress and then she said we shouldnt let politics divide us. What does that do . What solution is that offering . Again, if you dont degree with donald trump one thing, you have to respect hes a man of action and not words and wants to do something. Earlier this morning, donald trump on fox news said, they cant believe obama is acting this way, not mentioning islamic terror. Theres something going on. Do you have any more information about what he might have meant by that . Well, again, president obama still has never said the words radical islamic terrorism. We are being attacked by radical islam in this country and bringing more, you know, people in to carry out those attacks isnt going to solve the problem and Hillary Clintons plan of bring more people in and try to integrate ourselves with that culture, i dont see how thats going to stop these attacks from happening. Donald trump wants to enforce our border and understand who is coming to this country and make sure that the people we bring into this country, that we put in our neighborhoods, next to our families, our children, we understand theyre not going to carry out these sort of attacks, that they want to become americans and live a peaceful life and work for the betterment of our society. Quite frankly mr. Trump i believe around 3 30 eastern time it make a major speech on terror. You run his campaign in arizona, do you have any inkling what he might say . I have not. But if you go to donald j trump. Com, and read the statement, that shows what he believes. Ignore what the media says donald trump is saying, go to his website directly and read his words. That right there will show you that he is a man of action and he does have actual policy ideas. Theres no silver bullet. Nothing will fix it with one stroke, but we have to move in not being politically correct and searching for more than one answer. Stuart thank you. Thank you, stuart. Stuart look at this, please, from the Huffington Post on the orlando shooting. First, a statement from Hillary Clinton, full quote, long quote, the lbgt community, please know that you have millions of allies across our country. I am one of them. We will keep fighting for your life to leave freely, openly and without fear. Hate has absolute no place in america. And donald trump, quote in or put in the Huffington Post. 50 people dead and donald trump writes appreciates the congrats on radical terrorism. They left out the rest of trumps tweet where he says he wants what you dont see is important, we have to expect this is the case, even as its unfolding, we dont know the total number of dead. Many people are critically injured, but this is what theyre willing to do when really, this is a crime. This is terrorism that transcends partisanship, transcends race and everything, weve got to have leadership and yet, theyre still worried, for some reason the left is worried if we talk about terrorism that theyll be in trouble somehow. I also have noted a big tweet over the weekend for me went viral. If the fbi and Homeland Security interviewed this man and knew about him and let him go when he was no problem. How are we supposed to know that in syrian migrants. And all of the questions have to be asked, about the obamas approach and attitude. And working on the immigration transportation that was involved with the government, if its a u. S. Subsidiary of the british company, and largest in the world and that theres links there with him as well. Thats a company that he works for. Stuart thats news, thats fascinating. We must address this. Ashley others questioned by the fbi who have questionable connections and having been let go. Stuart the 101st isis sympathizer person was interviewed. 101 of them so far. The first thing investors look for after a terror attack is some kind of market reaction. Okay, theres very little direct response. Now, stocks are going to be down today, probably not because of the terror attack, although there may be some anxiety in the background after what happened in orlando. One thing we will be looking at closely is gun stocks after call for the gun control. Generally they go up, well see in 13 minutes. I just want to say that the reacts are reacting both in asia and europe is down big because of this case, its believed it gives more validity to those in the u. K. Who want to get out. Stuart because of the migrant link. Ashley there is a link. Orlando suggests that maybe the brits will be more likely to get out. Ashley fear of terrorism. Stuart that hurts the market liz and the voter polls are moving toward Great Britain leaving the euro zone. Stuart linkedin is going to be way up at the opening bell. 26. 2 billion for it and all crash. Moth has the cash, its going to happen. Microsoft will be down two bucks, roughly 3 when that market opens up again. Thats in 12 minutes time. Do we take a break at this point . No, we do not. Zuhdi jasser is with us, come on in, please. We always think of you as a moderate muslim, an american guy, you served 11 years in the american navy. Now this. Does islam have a basic problem with gays . It looks like islam does. Straighten it out, if you can. Well, certainly the leadership and most of the interpretations that dominate our fate community are homophobic and in the 12th century. And comes to women minority, too. With iran, they threw them off the cliff. Its amazing how hypocritical president obama is and we called him that when he went to a mosque. There was a mosque that had this, and you would hold christians for. At a mosque that was homopho homophobic, and no one wants to make the connection in the administration, academia, and otherwise, that isis has against gays, against jews, against women. Stuart theres an obvious question, why should america bring in more people who do not share our values and some of those people are actively killing us. Why should we bring all muslims into the country . We should stop all i am great lakes, they could lie against their faith, again, when it sort of becomes a process for a policy that doesnt have a solution yet. The solution is to create clearances and a vetting process against islamism and jihadism. Once you do that, our biggest threat is actually the muslims that are internal, in Homeland Security, in the military, et cetera. And the global mochl and jihad, until we can do that, we ar take lated in our reform, two pages and if they signed it, include recognition of central identity as equality. If muslims sign that they can be part of the solution and vetted for clearances. If they dont then they are part of the problem and should not have security clearances or allowed entry into our hallowed country. Mari maria . Stuart thank you for being with us. Were joined by an eyewitness to the terror in orlando. I want to come to the not interested in the politics, you were there, and saw it, and walking by outside. Take us through it, what did you see . Actually in my friends apartment, i was asleep when the gunfire erupted what actually woke me up. His apartment was 100 meters catty corner from the club pulse. There were the injured fleeing away from the club and scattered everywhere and the First Responders began to arrive and take the people out of there. Stuart you saw people coming out of the club running for their lives, i guess, bloody, injured, wounded, you is a that out of your window . Yes, all of this, people, youve seen the video where theyre applying tourniquets from ripped up shirts and bandanas, helping to road the wounded into the medical seniors adfrjts you woke up in the middle of the night and you heard the gunshots and saw this massive presence. What did you say . At first i thought it was an altercation in the club. Hours later when it ended, the numbers so huge now, first 20, 30, now 50. It was shocking to find out what i had been a witness to. Stuart you look a little shocked, nick, youre a witness to something and you look shaken up. Yeah, you know, its only been 24 hours, but it feels mo like 72 right now. Its hard to come to grip if i could have been involved in it. Thats not the case, but being right there. Stuart appreciate you being here today. For you and for all. Thank you. Thank you. Stuart you wanted to get another point in from zuhdi jasser and talking about gays and especially with that young man, the clubs and life style. When youre in a club like that, youre free to have a good time, youre relaxed, youre with your friends and this is something thats important, we see in orlando and response, when it comes to blood donations the nature how theyve responded. When it comes to the Gay Community and this is how were all the same and at us, its a target to minority and people who dont conform and that comes down to the Gay Community, to women, and especially when youre dealing
