Suggestion. Also ahead, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and others very annoyed by president obamas socalled latte salute. On the list of things that you could criticize this president for, this would be way way way down on the list. Tiniy. Caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone. The factor begins right now. Sus hi, im bill oreilly. Thanks for watching us tonight. President obama trying to rally the world against terrorism, that is the subject of this evenings talking points memo. Speaking at the United Nations this morning. Mr. Obama tried to be a tough guy and a statesman, both. While dealing with the islamic jihad. Whether he has succeeded in accomplishing anything is questionable but he gave it a good try. Many americans, including this one, are fed up with fighting the jihad without much help from other nations. Every sane person knows the evil involved, yet, china, russia and other powerful countries sit it out, letting americans bleed. That has got to stop. President obama knows it. So he is imploring the world to unite against the islamic killers. In this century, we have faced a more lethal and ideological brand of terrorist who have perverted one of the worlds great religions with access to technology that allows small groups to do great harm. They have embraced a night mariucci vision mariucciish division dividing the world into infidels killing as Many Americans as possible. You would think that fact alone would mobilize to all pitch in and directly attack terrorism. Many of them dont. Countries like germany, spain, japan, india do little to combat the jihad. Sure, they will give us intel if they have it but you dont see leadership from much of the world. Talking points has been pleasantly surprised by france. Paris understands the danger and is helping out. Great britain, canada, australia always help. But that pretty much ends the list of major contributors. President obama is making a big play to get muslim nations on board against the jihadists and today he hit that theme again. We have reaffirmed again and again that the United States is not and never will be at war with islam. Islam teaches peace. Muslims the world over aspire to live with dignity and a sense of justice. And when it comes to america and islam, there is no us and them. There is only us because millions of Muslim Americans are part of the fabric of our country. Okay, fine. The more muslim nations that step up, the better. Mr. Obama makes a mistake by not singling out irresponsible muslim nations. Pakistan has hurt the u. S. A. And the world by harboring the taliban and al qaeda. Yet, we still pander to pakistan. That nonsense has got to stop. If you help murderous fanatics, you are the enemy. Lets begin to call out the nations that enable the terrorists. But thats not mr. Obamas style. After all thats happened, he still sees himself as a uniter. He is still hesitant to go all out against the jihadists. In this effort we do not act alone. Nor do we intend to send u. S. Troops to occupy foreign lands. Instead we will support iraqis and syrians, fighting to reclaim their communities. We will use our military might in a campaign of air strikes to roll back issa. We will train and equip forces fighting against these terrorists on the ground. But the president is training and equipping the wrong people. Muslims are not going to defeat other muslims. They can help, but they cannot be the major force on the ground. In iraq, there are more than 250,000 men under arms with the best equipment in the world supplied by us, the u. S. A. And that army cant defeat 20,000 isis terrorists. So give me a break. With the outsourcing, the fighting has to be done by responsible motivated people. And also please give us all a break on telling the enemy what you are not willing to do to defeat the jihad. That political move is not smart. Force under the supervision of congress led by american and nato officers could drive the terrorists back almost immediately and become a very potent force in this world for stopping the madness. The usual suspects on the far left despise that idea and so do some on the right. But it is grossly unfair to we americans for us to bear most of the cost in blood and treasure fighting the worldwide war on terror it is grossly unfair unite and defeat the brutal jihadists who murder innocent rim and children and terrorize the world including their own people. Sadly, i have no confidence the world will step up and do much at all. People are selfish, frightened and apathetic to the of others. Countries like turkey help the terrorists and want our help when they get into trouble. Forget it, the world needs Straight Talk and bold action. President obamas diplomacy and statesman like posture has not worked and likely will not work in the future. The few planes flown by muslim pilots are not going to stop the jihad. Finally, its going to take another 9 11 type attack to convince some folks that a world war is indeed underway. That means you new york times. That attack could come at any time. Because for far too long the world is tolerated the jihad. And thats the memo. Next on the rundown, reaction from both the left and the right. The factor is coming right back.

Whats in your wallet . Reaction to the speech of the president at the u. N. This morning. Teaching Political Science at iona college and from washington cliff may, defense of democracy. Mr. May, we begin with you. Do you think the president will be able to rally the world this time . No, i think thats pretty challenging. My guess is after his speech you didnt have ambassadors from a lot of different nations coming up and giving him high fives and saying hey man, just tell me what i can do for you, i will get it done. I think what i took away from the speech was not just that president obama had a difficult time explaining the global conflict we find ourselves, in a jihad as you correctly called it. Global conflict jihad degrading the islamic state. Strengthening the islamic public of iran or al qaeda rivals of the islamic state. This will have been strategic blunder of immense proportions. How do you see it, professor. I disagree. I think today we saw a president that many of us for the second term have been wanting to see. He was forceful. He was not ambivalent. He was clear to the World Community that this is the number one crisis or cancer as he called it that we face and he was clear about what we are going to do about it moreover whether or not he is able to rally the world. We have to wait and see. Whether he is going to be effective doing that but, you know, he was, i think for the first time in to n. A long time tom of us president we have been wanting to see. Showing leadership and taking this as a serious issue that he is ready to confront. I will get to you in a ve any problems with the way the speech was delivered. I thought was too heavy on muslim there, the peaceful and all of that i dont understand why is he doing it get as many muslims on board fighting the bad. The good muslims fighting the bad muslims is what he do. Mr. May, you say that you dont think that the world is going to rally, all right . Why . What is holding back countries like germany, for example . Thats the big offender . Because we saved their but the time and time again in germany. Whats holding them back from saying you know, what can we do . Past generation or two is the belief that there are no military solutions to anything. That everything can be solved by talking it out. You let guys cut peoples heads off in front of cameras and no military solution so so do whatever you want, isis. Or leave it to the United States to take care of. The europeans have been living under our umbrella for a very long time and expecting us to carry the weight while they go ahead with whatever they do. Nato is a shell of what it should be in terms of its military strength. And nato is not focused on this crisis. The professor rightly says we have a crisis. I would ask her to identify what that crisis is the crisis is not simply the islamic state. Cutting the heads off of innocent people. The crisis is much larger than that its global jihadism which take as variety of forms which the europeans have not been able to it address and im not sure president obama to this day understands that there is this global conflict being waged against america and the west and we have not c c fashion. Professor,sk the hopeful thatre haslly president obama taken enough action that he is going to start to defeat this movement. Number one, why do you think it took them so long and number two, what gives you hope . I think it took a long time because as we know he was elected as antiwar. We are going to pull out of afghanistan, we are going to pull out of iraq. Theories will the world were wrong. Is that what you are saying. I dont think his theories about the world were wrong. I think he made some missteps. Not arming the Syrian Rebels was a misstep on his part. I disagree with that i wouldnt have given the Syrian Rebels the arms because exactly what happened in iraq. What happened to them. Isis would have overrun them and take them. Thats not the right army by the way. I dont want to get into in this im going to get right in behind them. What gives you hope . You see a president. People know he is reluctant warrior that is absolutely true. They know he has a realistic view of what is going on a crisis not just of isis or not just much al qaeda. This is is a global terrorist threat. Cliff says he doesnt understand even though this day. Dont you say president obama doesnt understand the worldwide jihad . Islamic state. Isis, al qaeda which politic is another. Islamic public of iran also ha jihadist philosophy that is very clear in the statements of the supreme leaders. Owns syria and hezbollah, which is based in lebanon. Foreign legion. Unless you have strategy to fight and win against all jihadist. Put out a fire here and another break out here. Cliche is a back a whack a mole situation. It is clear that the muslim community, the middle Eastern Community is going to have to take control of this. They are going to have to. Yeah, number one, they cant fight and number two i dont think thats ever going to happen. United states. I see turkey, for example, which is a secular Muslim Country do anything then i will say maybe hope is in the air. James rosen james kerry wait until you see this.

Director of National IntelligenceJames Clapper says the Obama Administration under estimated isis and also did not foresee the collapse of the iraqi army. Based upon that statement, chief washington correspondent james rosen reminded us that he asked john kerry this question some time back. Shouldnt the fighting capability of the Iraqi Armed Forces have been precisely the kind of thing that our Intelligence Services and the Obama White HouseNational Security council had a better grasp of. Until the fight is engaged, no. You dont know the answer to that i think in this case. This was not an intelligence failure . Well, jim, if somebody could have found out that leaders were going to literally betray and cave in and desert, that would have been terrific. Joining us from washington is mr. Rosen and washingtons chief National Security karl karl rosen. We dont have anybody monitoring the iraqi army. President obama pulled everybody out of there we got a big cia station there. Maybe they should have known the iraqi corrupted maybe. The isis thing is just appalling. But, kerry is kind of caught in the middle because he wasnt secretary of state when all of these decisions were made. Look, secretary kerrys answer to me amended in essence to we couldnt have known what general clapper in his mea culpa to the the Washington PostDavid Ignatius essentially his answer amounted to was when we should have known and we didnt. Thats exactly what i was driving with at secretary kerry. Rare, bill, are the occasions when you have a job like mine, where you can wallow in triumph fallism. State department that propriety virtually propels us to linger over them just a bit. Not only do you have general clapper having secretary kerry bring himself to acknowledge in my interview with him. Remind you of recent exchanges with jen socky with whom i have a great collegial relationship. You will remember these exchanges because as a result of them a baseless charge of sexism was mounted against from you these very precincts. I spent several days trying to ask jen socky whether we are in fact at war with isis. Queries which prompted her to acould you see me of playing word games and twisting president obamas words. Within 72 hours, secretary kerry himself could be. One presumes that the senior officials at the pentagon, the state department, and the white house miss psakis own colleagues also enjoy performing the twist. Do you feel that the state department as is has a handle on how to defeat the worldwide jihad. Well, of course its not solely the task of the state department to defeat worldwide jihad. Fine, rosen. Do you feel they have a handle on it or not . I think they do, but it might not accord with your or my or other peoples ways of going about it. There is more than one way to skin a jihadist cat if you will, and i think the route that the president of the United States has chosen is one thats going to take a much longer time precisely because he feels it should be accomplished with arab input as if multilaterallism is the only way to conduct military operation. Thats a good point. By the way, do you write all this stuff out or just memorize it and tell the audience . These runon sentences. I mean, he they go on. Its like the epistle of saint paul, i mean the sentences never end. They keep going and going and going. I have to give you credit. You dont have a teleprompter. You are not reading the teleprompter. No. I dont have a prompter. Im glad you know you regard what i say as holly writ, bill. I say your literary style of never having a period or comment is similar to saint paul. One more question. Kerry, after you make him look bad, does he take that personally . I kind of think he does. I dont think he likes me very much he. He called you jim though, rosen. He called you jim. You should though bill in washington specifically the unsolicited use of jim is very common. I introduce myself to people james rosen nice to meet you. Jim, let me show you the parameters of the problem. It always happens. Maybe next time he will call you jimmy and give you a pat on the head. Get over to cammeron. Now, cammeron, a lot of people dont know, this but congress isnt even working. They are not even in session. They wont even come back until november, cammeron. All this isis stuff and all of this bombing, they are gone. They are not even. There is that correct . Pretty much. I mean, look, congress did authorize the training of and arming of the moderate syrians last week. Before they left. And then they did exactly that not going to be back for roughly seven weeks until the week after the election. The election is november 4th. All get back here november 11th and at that point they are supposed to consider sort of a retroactive authorization for the use of force from what we already know has obviously happened. Then they have christmas vacation coming up in december. Now, how much do the house of representatives, how much do they make, Congress People make . How much. 174 grand a year. Congress is a great gig. They get up to 60 staffers, huge expense accounts, a base pay of 174 grand. Leaders get a little bit more, actually. It can go up to 230 for the house speaker. Whats the expense account . Well, in the house they call it the members representational allowance. The average is about 1. 2 million a year. You know you have got 435 members. So you are talking half a billion dollars for the house allowance. So they get 174 k salary andmilliondollar expense account where they can do it and what about the senate . Better if you are a senate. They get 3. 2 million. Whoa. Thats 800 million so far for expenses. Dont forget they get subsidized healthcare under obamacare, of course. Out of that money they have to pay their staff. Government retirement. They get free parking on the hill. How much money do senators make . Its all 174 and then it goes up depending on leadership. Okay. Pretty good gig. Now we know why they never want to give it up. They are there forever. They only work three days a week. If that. Plenty more ahead as the factor moves along this evening. Miller on the president s antiterror speech today and the white house fence jumper. Also mr. Obamas controversy latte salute. Should the nation be offended . Martha maccallum will tell us. We hope you stay tuned to those reports. [meow mix jingle slowly and quietly plucks] right on cue. [cat meows] meow, meow, meow, meow. Its more than just a meal, its meow mix mealtime.
