Log on to our Facebook Page keeptalking. We hope you have a great week. Thanks for starting it off with us. Fox friends starts right now. Bye. Good morning. It is monday, september 29. Im elisabeth hasselbeck. A monster truck show takes a deadly turn. Oh no what caused the driver to plow into a crowd of people right this . He beheaded a woman in oklahoma and tried to convert his coworkers to islam. And this morning he will be charged with firstdegree murder. But what about terrorism . We have a live report. The administration underestimated isis but it wasnt the president s fault the our head of the Intelligence Community, jim clapper, has acknowledged
that i think they underestimated what had been taking mace place in syria. Wasnt the president being briefed on isis for over a year . Well take a cloture a closer look because your mornings are better with friends. Live from studio e in the heart of midtown manhattan. Its fox friends. By the way, if you are craving a cup of coffee today, it is okay because its National Coffee day. Great news for so many. We cant wait to share that cup with m9n i think we have a special surprise object that very same theme. We have this for you first. A fox news alert. Hes accused of beheading a former coworker and seriously hurting another and today alton know lab will officially be charged but the question is why
isnt this being called a terrorist act. A big question as to what this is being called or what its not being called. Local police initially said it was Workplace Violence and he is still in the hospital but will now face firstdegree murder charges and assault with a deadly weapon. Police say he got angry in Oklahoma City and went on a rampage at company headquarters. He killed one woman and was hacking away at another when the c. E. O. Shot him. His mother recorded a video apologizing for her sons actions. Our hearts bleed right now because what theyre saying alton has done. I want to apologize to both families because this is not alton. There are two investigations here. The first being the local one into the attack but also a federal one looking
at nolens possible ties to terrorism. His Facebook Page makes reference to share i cant cant sharia law, jihad and 9 11. He had been in jail but released on good behavior. Locals say he was a frequent worshiper in his mosque where he was described as a little off. He also assaulted a cop and they get him out in less than two years when he should be in jail for six. It is a crazy story. Local cops in oklahoma, they refer to what he did, he terrorized the people at work. The big question is will it be regarded as terrorism . Lets face it. Hes a guy who you look at his Facebook Page, he embraced radical islam actions and stuff like that. Could this be the beginning of the lone wolf attacks weve been worried about . If were going to stop it, we have to at least acknowledge it. He was obsessed with islamic extremism. Did you watch 60 minutes last night . That interview generated reactions. Pumped up prez blasts putin and china. Thats how we roll. The daily news by the way George Clooney got married. The daily news says see no evil. Obama admits isis caught us off guard, that according to the new york post. Curious is hes very outward in the fact that he throws the Intel Community under the bus. Watch. I think our head of the Intelligence Community, jim clapper, acknowledged that i think they underestimated
what had been taking place in syria. With isil was that you had al qaeda in iraq which was a vicious group, but our marines were able to quash, with the help of sunni tribes. They went back underground. But offense the past couple of years but over the past couple of years during the chaos of the civil war where essentially you had huge swathes of the country completely ungoverned they were able to reconstitute themselves. That headline you held up initially that said bomb inator. I think it is really blameinator. Weve been reporting, not just the c. I. A. And other members of the Intel Community have been pumping
information into the white house for up to two years now on the growth of the islamic state, on the chaos that was created by abandoning iraq, assessments on concerns over the readiness of the iraqi army, their abilities and their tactical and leadership command and structure. All this was going into the white house. So i dont know what they were doing with the reports. Either they chose to ignore them because they didnt meet the narrative they were putting out there about decimating al qaeda. Or they paid no attention. You hear mike baker speaking for c. I. A. Operatives, all the people who said if you pull out theres a problem. The military said if you pull out theres a problem. We watch almaliki replace all the sunni leaders with shia leaders. One of the guys for a minute we thought was nonpartisan tried to pull the sects together and start denying the kurds of
their rations. At the same time telling the sunnis you can hit the road, at the same time syria erupts and goes offense the border. For example, on january 3 do you need a threat assessment to tell you volusia fell, sinjar august 34. And then we get a strategy. How much lead time do you need . We know the president watches news reports because if he was watching he would have seen this happening. It bothers me so much to see somebody blame somebody else for a position theyre in. Thats the antileadership quotient. It was very clear. Stevecroft tried to bring the president to say i thought you were the guy who didnt want to start a war. Youve started a war. Were not at war with isil which is funny because we had admiral kirby last week say we are at war with
isil. Heres the president. Hes done a 180 over the last month or so. Now he says when the going gets tough, the tough go to america. America leads. Thats always the case. We are the indispensable nation. We have capacity no one else has. Our military is the best in the history of the world. And when trouble comes up anywhere in the world, they dont call beijing. They dont call moscow. They call us. Thats the deal. It looks like we are doing 90 steve, this is not an when there is a typhoon in the philippines, take a look at whos helping the philippines deal with that situation. When theres an earthquake in haiti, take a look at whos leading the charge making sure haiti can rebuild. Thats how we go thats
how we roll. And thats what makes us america. I loved it. I love that statement. I love everything he said right there. I hope it shows the situation where the president once he got behind the wheel of the country said we are unbelievable. Because it is not seemingly how we always felt. Who was that guy who made that sound bite . When you read that it looks reminiscent of president reagan, president bush president clinton too. President clinton as well. But it hasnt necessarily been the tone weve been hearing so far from president obama. Take a listen. America must move off a permanent war footing. America must always lead on the world stage but u. S. Military action cannot be the only or even primary component of our leadership in every instance. Unless we discipline our thinking, our definitions, our actions, we may be drawn into more wars we dont need to fight. These new circumstances
have also meant chipping away from a perpetual war footing. America should not be expected to police the world particularly when we have so many pressing needs here at home. Remember what he said in 2009. I believe in american exceptionalism just as the greeks believe in greek exceptionalism. No offense but i dont think he can put us in the same category. His last sound bite america should not be expected to police the world and we started that with when trouble comes to the world they turn to the United States. We now turn to ainsley earhardt. Thanks guys. Let me tell you about the headlines. Terrifying video capturing the moment a monster truck rally in the netherlands takes a deadly turn. [screaming] you can hear all the spectators screaming as that truck knocks down the guardrail and plows through that crowd. Thee people, including a child, are now dead. 20 others injured.

A recent convert to islam beheads a former coworker while stabbing another. Today alton nolen will be charged with firstdegree murder as his mother insists, there are two sides to every story. I want to apologize to both families because this is not alton. But i just im praying that justice will prevail, the whole story will come out. Meanwhile nolen celebrated acts of terrorism against the United States on his Facebook Page. So should his crime be considered Workplace Violence or an act of terror . Joining us is retired u. S. Army Sergeant Howard ray. He survived the fort hood massacre after rushing nine people to safety. Good morning to you, sergeant. Good morning. How are you . Doing okay. I understand you saw the first news reports of this guy down in oklahoma beheading his coworker; took you right back to fort hood, didnt it . Absolutely did. It really made me think about how our fight with terrorism and really bad atrocities like this is far from over. I mentioned a moment ago how this particular guy on his Facebook Page appeared to be obsessed with radical islam. There are reports that he may have been shouting islamic phrases as well. We havent really heard from the feds on this. We heard from some of the locals saying this guy did what terrorists do. They terrorize. But isnt this terrorism rather than Workplace Violence, which is what fort hood was categorized by the feds . Well, obviously this did happen at a workplace. But i think the more and more that you look into the suspects Facebook Page and
his ideology, i think you can really find the underpinning of why this happened. An angry coworker doesnt just, you know people typically run into that situation. Youll see a shooting or Something Like that. But you wont necessarily see someone get their head severed from their body, which is so tragic and so painful. I know for that family and for the coworkers and everyone in moore, oklahoma, right now, it even pains me as a survivor of the 2009 attack at fort hood. Its horrible. I tell you what, the people at that particular processing plant, theyre lucky the c. E. O. , mark vaughn, was a reserve deputy and had a gun on him at the time and was able to, he shot him a couple of times. The guys going to live but nonetheless he was able to stop him. There he is right there. That guys a hero. Absolutely is. One of the great things that we can learn from this is Small Business has learned a lesson that if they arm their employees, their employees will be safe. The sad thing is on a grander scale as far as our government goes, i dont think weve quite learned that lesson yet. I think you could be right. Sergeant howard ray joining us from austin, texas. Thanks for your service and thanks for getting up early to be with us here on fox friends. Thank you so much. Take care. 20 minutes after the top of the hour.

After being diagnosed and battling cancer twice, kelly this month announced he is cancerfree. We had the chance to sit down with jim and his wife jill to talk about their journey and how they found strength in their faith. Almost a year to the day you were in our studio. I was diagnosed a couple of months ago. They removed my whole upper jaw. What has happened since . How long is this interview . 35 radiation treatments. You lose 51 pounds. What was that like . There was a period in new york city where i had so many bags hooked up to me, we really didnt know. Even in my heart i didnt know if i was going to
live. I said to my brother, those are the longest two weeks. He said, jim, you were in the hospital for six weeks. I said what . I heard you got a little angry when you he said i might be seeing hunter before you. You got angry. We immediately started crying and i thought wow, that is not the road were going to go down. Although by faith we believe that god has a plan and all this for us, but theres more living to be done. Jill, you took pictures . I did. None of us knew exactly what the outcome was going to be for jim, and i wanted to document every single thing. And i did. And i probably drove him crazy. Tell me what youre thinking here. [cheering] they surprised me. Once again i got him on video. Reminded me, you said it was Something Like a super bowl. You run through the tunnel. The hands went out. That was amazing because some of the people, along with my brothers, were all there. That was my last day, coming out of my last radiation treatment. And i remember that day because it i had so many people that were along my journey before i was even diagnosed. It didnt matter what i was going through, they were always there for me. And all the people that were this for me, that came to see me in the hospital came to see me at home, would send me letters, would send me packages. They were there that day. And as i said before, im a truly blessed man to have so many great people around me. I watched every single minute this year of the whole thing. Whats your reneck shun

I dont want to start crying. Thats how i feel. I can pretty much tell you word for word what i said there. He is the toughest person i ever met. I realize that the good lord put our son here for a reason and that was to change the lives of thousands and thousands of kids and families, and he did. Now full circle now. Its me. Its all part of a plan the good
