Announcer from washington, the mclaughlin group, the american original for over three decades, the sharpest minds, best sources, hardest talk. John issue one. Slaughter in san bernardino. Mayhem came to san bernardino, california on wednesday when two terrorists syed farook age 28 and Tashfeen Malik age 27 shot 14 people dead and wounded ten critically. San bernardino is on the eastern edge of los angeles. Investigators believe farook and malik were seeking to align themselves with a syrian and iraq based quote unquote over the last year, Islamic State has called for attacks in the west. It was also responsible for the recent terrorists attacks in paris. Farook and his accomplice targeted their victims at the Inland Regional Center which specializes in supporting developmentally impaired individuals. The attack has reignited two contentious u. S. Debates. One debate over gun control laws and the other debate over fighting isis. Democrats say u. S. Gun laws need to be tightened to keep individuals. Republicans say president obama must use more aggressive force in fighting the Islamic State on its home territory. And with more u. S. Troops on the ground. Commander and chief obama horror citing the anomalies in our u. S. Terrorism controlled laws. For those concerned about terrorism, some may be aware of the fact that we have a no fly list but those same people who we dont allow to fly could go into a store right now in the United States and buy a firearm and there is nothing we can do to stop them. That is a law that needs to be changed. Why is president obama trying to divert attention from his administrations failure to prevent this terrorist attack by scapegoating guns . You understand the question . Yeah, i do, john. There is no doubt about it the president has been dead wrong. He said isis has been contained. Its a jv and we have them in this area. They are diminishing in terms of the area they control. But now what isis is doing i believe and i think this is an example. We now we have connections as isis is being hammered in its base and it is lashing out and i think calling into action sleeper cells and other attackers in the west to do the kind of massacre that took place in paris and in san bernardino. Basically to make a statement to the world that we are fighting the west and were at war with the west. And very successful. I think the president is almost in denial. Up in friday he had not mentioned islamic terror or with this. I think the whole Democratic Party is trying to return it into a debate on gun control. Losing. Washington post Fact Checkers took obama to task for using false statistics in his claims about mass shooting. Are you surprised the president is stretching the truth again . No, im surprised youre stretching the truth again. Trying to blame this whole this is a new form of terrorism. If in fact it bares out to be that. It looks like the woman in this bonnie and clyde pair is the key and she spent some time in saudi arabia and one of the theories that they are investigating is that saudi based terrorists are using what they call the honey pot. Putting islamic brides out there to entice american muslim will. There is so much we dont know. This. Where a young mother with a six monthold baby would go on this killing revenge and why they would choose a target that value huge symbolic value. I think there is a lot that we dont know. But the recruiting tools and social media have really transformed the way radicalism can take root. And no matter how many troops you send in, i dont think more troops are the answer. Its a very different kind of terrorism and i think so far president obama has the right tone, attitude and strategy. What is the best
