Killed several key isil terrorists this week l including, we believe that jim. Serving as finance minister and also responsible for some external affairs and plots. Meantime, secretary of state john kerry was in brussels where h said the u. S. Is gaining the upper hand on isis. And the very reason that dash is resorting to actions outside of the middle east is that its fantasy of a caliphate is collapsing before theiri. Eyes. Its territory is shrinking every day. Its leaders are being disseminated. Its Revenue Sources are divind lick and its fighters are fleeing. Small victories are measured against the sobers losses from the brussels attacks. Today we learned at least two missing american siblings are among the dead. Joining us now from washington to put all of this in perspective fox news strategic analyst lt. Colonel ralph peters. Colonel peters, are we so starved for a wins a ash carter points out we killed the number two in isis thats win and we should all be celebrating this . Well, im on the secretary of defenses side on this particular issue. This is big. It is important. It isep not decisive. The news we got the one he called naj mastav and other names. Joe biden as it were. Its a below symbolically, a blow to morale. Practical blow because he had a lot of experience. Again, not decisive, but it does matter. How many number twos, how many joe bidens have we got . I remember a bunch of number twos being taken down. Im still waiting for i would say al baghdadi number one would be the big daddy to get. Well, its incremental fight. The problem here, eric, is that president obama fierce the consequences of taking action, as a result of which he doesnt take action, doesnt understand often the cost of snaction are greater. In this case with him ignoring intelligence. And then calling Islamic States jv team. The plague has escaped the city walls and now spread across the globe. Pandemic of the islam terrorism. And because he did not act in time, the caliphate is being wounded in syria and iraq. But the caliphate now has colonies in brussels in paste. Probably minor ones libya the threat has metastasized. As for john kerry. As for secretary kerry saying that Islamic State thats desperate, i dont know, europe looked pretty desperate to me this week. President obama cant say radical islamicf terror. He said bathtubs are more dangerous than terrorists in america. Frankly, im more concerned about blowing up as i come to work in times square than i am my bathtub. He uses the word existential threat. Its not existential threat. There is no logic to that, eric. Nonlethal diseases are not existential threat. Petty crime isnt existential threat. Fender benders arent existential threat but they are not desirable either. And just because a threat cant wipe out every last american, doesnt mean we dont take it seriously. Can i guarantee you Islamic State dash, was a really, really, really existential threat to those two young brussels. And we, unfortunately we may get word that more americans were killed. What is that . Are we afraid of offending tears and offends radical muslims . Well, i think its a peculiar big tri on the part of the left where they are the ones who lump muslims all together. Muslims are either all good or all bad. Muslims are human beings. They come in a lot of different flavors. Islam comes in a lot of varieties. Today, one aspect is violent extremism. And some muslims are fanatical jihadis. When the president cannot accept that when he keeps saying when the president of the United States purportedly a christian says thats not islam, thats like the king of saudi arabia saying the pope is not a christian. It doesnt convince anybody. But the left is so the president is so wed to this row manhattannization row manhattannization of islam that he carried with him indonesian childhood he cant get it out. Back in the 70s when i joined the army, things were tough, they really. Were we had a term for the burned out ncos and officers from the vietnam era just trying to make their 20 and retire. We called them retire on active duty. President obama is retired on active duty. He doesnt want any drama. He doesnt want any event. He will not take decisive action. Some would call that colonel peters lame duck. We will leave it right there. Next on the rundown, belgiums colossal failures that opened the door. Do they make america its easy to love your laxative when that lax loves your body back. Only miralax hydrates, eases and softens to unblock naturally, so you have peace of mind from start to finish. Love your laxative. Miralax. Its intelligent drive is msystems. Ng. Paradigmshifting. Its technologyfilled cabin. Jawdropping. Its performance. Breathtaking. Its selfparking. And selfbraking. Showstopping. The allnew glc. Mercedesbenz resets the bar for the luxury suv. Starting at 38,950. In the exact seeing element tonight, belgiums failure to stop this weeks terrorist attacks, the intelligence failures arexd stunning. At least two of the isis suicide bombers were on a u. S. Terror watch list and there were many other warning signs missed by officials. So, how can we feel safe if western governments are botching the fight against isis so badly . Joining us now from washington to analyze jim hanson who is with the center for Security Policy and from los angeles, Counter Terrorism specialist aaron lets start with you, aaron. Lets start with many of the failures that belgium has admitted. Now, turkey has said they sent one of these terrorists back to keep an eye on this guy and they failed to follow through. What are they doing wrong . Belgium needs to overhaul their entire security or, sorry, their intelligence gathering apparatus they systematically had a problem following up on intelligence leads. This is not the first time with belgium. Certainly not the first time in upper. I think their Intelligence Organization theyre their state Intelligence System needs to be overhauled. The leadership where i was trained in israel would certainly, you know, be pulled if there was this many types of colossal misses. They need to learn the art or relearn the art of collecting information and then analyzing the information, eric second piece they are missing is the paramilitary forces. Intel is the first and most important piece of the Counter Terror game. Once you get that intel, you have to act really fast. For every second wasted, another innocent can be blown up or killed. For every round thats missed by these guys if theyre firing like we saw in the last 24 hours, innocence can be killed. Paramilitary, their swat units, their special operations units need to be bolstered, equipment, training so, they can execute those warrants really, really quickly. The third is the Airline Failure. That Airline Failure at the airport, lock, i will say, this prustles is 20 years behind america. And they are 60 years behind israel. Israel figured out the Airline Security model. They needf to take it, steal it hire the israelis, adapt it starting put in the behavioral profiling. Behavioral, i want to pick up onf that right there. I was waiting to see if you were going to go there or not. Jim, behavioral profiling behavioral only or other types of profiling, go ahead . Absolutely not. Its not like we dont know who the problem is if you are looking for jihadists you should look in neighborhood where they hang out. I will go one at the present higher. Belgium creed sovereignty over the molenbeek neighborhood. Colonel peters mentioned there are colonial outposts they could have declared allegiance to the caliphate and im not sure the belgians would have done anything about it. What should they havekn done, jim . Once you hear there are these outposts what do they do . Do they go in and target the neighborhoods for extra scrutiny as ted cruz mentioned . Why if they conduct these raids today why couldnt they conduct them all along . They know who the bad guys is. Its Political Correctness and criticism of islam neutering all of our Security Forces especially in europe and still here in the United States. We refuse to name the enemy. We refuse to investigate the enemy and not doing so like senator cruz said, we need to reinfigu programs here before we end up with molenbeeks in the United States. Lets talk a little bit about that, aaron. Europe, belgium but europe in general p. C. Paradise. We seem to like that model a little00 bit. San bernardino, you guys remember San Bernardino you were on reporting and talking about that. If you remember the night after the terror attacks with faruk and malik, our own adam housley interviewed a neighbor of that couple and the neighbor literally said i saw strange things happening. I saw boxes go in there. I was worried but i was afraid to Say Something because i was afraid of being called a racist. Are we importing europe mean pc and is that dangerous . I do believe its making us dangerous. I agree with everything that jim said also. See something, Say Something eric only works if you actually do it. The difference between the way we do that in israel is that israelis know that if they see something suspicious and they dont say anything, that in the end ultimately people will get killed. The Political Correctness in europe combined with the jumbled legal system which literally ties the hands of the operations because legally there is so many restrictions about what they can do in neighborhoods like monthlyible beck. That needs to be uprooted and those intelligence agencies need to be empowered. The Law Enforcement needs to be empowered. They need to do exactly what jim was saying which is start uprooting that neighbor or those pockets whether is hoards of isis sympathizers and start putting the fear and putting them on the run by getting them scared. Once we flip the equation and the europeans get on board and start putting the pressure on them and applying that pressure cooker, these guys are going to stop feeling safe and start going oh my god, we have to start operating in other places. I have got to go, guys there is a fantastic discussion on that and a lot more to talk about. Aaron and jim, thank you very much. Up next on this Oreilly Factor special.

Dr. Ben carson is stirring up controversy after saying this. Really go back to mohammed and read about his life. Not only in mecca but in medina andohis subsequent life and the hadith and the whole story of his life and the beliefs systems prout out of that. It will give you a much better. It is not a religion but a lifestyle it doesnt allow the separation of religion from politics. Joining us is dr. Ben carson. Doctor, that kind of blew up after had you said that. So do you want to explain it any further islam is not a religion, its a lifestyle. Explain what you mean. A lot of people think that islam is religion, being a muslim, that is a religious component of which ise lifestyle that really goes aak, as i said, to look at the quran and hadith and fatwa to really get a conglomeration of the many aspects of it. One of the components, if you take all of it is sharia and there is a component also that sees islam as the preeminent force in the world, dominating all others. Anybody who doesnt agree with them is either eliminated or brought into7ay subjection. There is a reformed movement. There are reformed muslims like there were reformed people in the christian faith. Andz are in america are reformed. They dont take in all of the stuff that i just mentioned, which is a good thing, because that would not be very compatible with our lifestyle. So let me ask you this. So you think the vast majority of muslims in america are of the reformed nature, therefore, dont necessarily believe sharia law supersedes the u. S. Constitution . I certainly get that impression. You know, i grew up around a lot of muslims growing up in detroit. And i didnt get the impression that they were nonpatriotic. Obviously as we bring more people into our country, we need to examine carefully who they are why they are coming here, who have they been . We have to become intelligent in the way that we screen people. I wouldnt screen people on the basis of their religion or their belief system, but i would screen them in terms of what their likelihood to cause problems in our country. Country. If we are note the holy land memorandum trial a memorandum said it would be easier to accomplish civilization jihadi in america because the americans would be so interested in Political Correctness that they would allow theirj own rights to be compromised. Does faith play a role in politics . Does faith play a role in governorring . Specifically thinking of president obama. Should his faith play a role in how he treats extreme islamic terror . Well, you know, people can say that fai doesnt play a role. But, of course your faith plays a role in everything that you do. What you believe in, what you dont believe. In even an atheist has faith in something. And it effects the way that they relate to other people and how they relate to the world. So, the real question is, in our country, in the United States of america, do we make provisions for that . And the answer is yes. The very First Amendment of our constitution protects your faith and your ability to live according to your faith. And we should be very cautious of anything that dampens that ability. All right, doctor, you sat down with the ladies of the view and it got a little bit heated at one point. Lets take a listen so our audience know what is went on and i would like to you comment on. It this guy, im sorry, is he a racist and he9 is not good for the country. Whats the alternative . I look at the big picture. I could look at any one little thing and pick anybody apart on it but right now, the nature of our country is at stake. Okay. Im listening for that answer. Is donald trump a racist . No, he is not a racist. But do you know what the left does . If you dont agree with them, you know, you are a racist. Are a homophobe. You are islamophobic. They have a whole terms they are going to throw at you. What people have to do is stop being afraid of thesef names. You know, this is like 3rd grade tactics. If you are going to let that keep you from doing and saying what you need to say. Then you are a 3rd grader. All right. Dr. Carson, thank you very much for joining us tonight. Thank you.
