Outbreak here in the United States are extremely low. Two weeks later an infected patient got on a plane from liberia, flew to the states and wound up in a texas hospital where now two of the Health Care Workers who treated him are also infected with ebola. One of whom we just learned today flew to cleveland and back after her exposure. And that texas hospital and the cdc are now warning more cases may be coming. Tonight, the president sounded a different sounding message. If we do these protocols properly, if we follow the steps, if we get the information out, then the likelihood of widespread Ebola Outbreaks in this country are very, very low. What happened to the chances of an Ebola Outbreak are extremely low . Now its if we follow the protocols properly, if we get the information out, then the likelihood of a widespread outbreak is well, not extremely low, low. Last night the head of the centers for Disease Control came on this broadcast to promise that they were on the job. With the cdc, its heart in the right place but information misplaced. And wrong. A few times now no, let me correct you on that. Our information is clear and correct. But we do look at whats happened and we adjust as we need to. We know how ebola spreads. We know how to stop it. The questions arose today about whether dr. Frieden was being completely transparent. First, he said all the folks exposed to the original ed bo la patient were being monitored. And none had a fever. We surged our response so weve tracked every one of those 48 patients in conjunction with the folks in texas, those contacts of the initial patient, every day theyve been tracked. None of them have a fever. But dr. Frieden left out the fact that 76 other people who had initial contact with the patient were left to selfmonitor. And one of those people, a nurse, not only had a fever but had been admitted to that same texas hospital yesterday morning. Now through a spokesman tonight he told us he didnt know about her fever until overnight last night after his appearance on the kelly file. Why not . And how could that be possible if as just broke this evening before we came to air the cdc told this nurse on monday that she could fly despite a fever. His underlings knew and either they didnt tell him or he didnt tell us last night. Then we challenged whether the cdcs protocols were adequate. You go to an infected ebola patients room without covering your head, with only wearing one pair of gloves and with your feet exposed, you would do that . Absolutely. More is not always better. Better is better. More is not always better. Well, today we got a picture of dr. Frieden visiting an ebola ward in liberia. Thats him front and center. He is covered headtotoe and is double gloved. Clearly in this case more is better. He said when you follow the procedures that were in place in liberia. We have Fox Team Coverage with dr. Manny alvarez, ed henry, and katy romer with the Group National nurses united. Theyve written directly to the white house on this. We start with Trace Gallagher and the frightening details on this latest case. Trace. The second nurse with ebola, 26yearold Amber Vincent, has a more advanced case of the disease which is why she was flown to emory hospital in atlanta where three other ebola patients have also been treated. And the cdc is defending accusations of being caught off guard yet again. They first told the country ebola would not be a huge risk. When Thomas Duncan died of e be la, the cdc said they knew how to stop it and then it spread. Dr. Thomas frieden told the kelly file this. Were making sure we stop the chains of transmission. Fran of transmission, but at the time he was no doubt aware of the biggest possible chain of transmission, yet Amber Vincent who just hours before diagnosed with ebola flew from cleveland to dallas on Frontier Airlines with 132 people. She called the cdc a number of times and said that her temperature was 99. 5, but because she didnt have symptoms and because her temperature was not at the danger threshold of 100. 5, she was allowed to fly. Heres the cdc director today. By both of those criteria she should not have been on that plane. I dont think that changes the level of risk of people around her. Yet they are now in the process of trying to contact all of the people on board that flight to interview them. Keep in mind Amber Vincent and 77 other dallas Health Care Workers were told to selfmonitor for ebola because they cared for Thomas Duncan in a time in his illness when he was releasing numerous bodily fluids. And those Health Care Workers did not have the proper protective clothing. The cdc has not denied that charge. Megyn. Trace, thank you. As trace just reported Amber Vincent reportedly called the cdc before boarding the plane from ohio back to texas on monday and was told it was okay to fly. Dr. Manny alva vez is fox news senior managing editor for health news and joins me now. The cdc told her it was okay because their standard was you cannot fly if your fever is 100, 100. 4 or higher, she was 99. 5. Dr. Frieden is saying today basically the cdc should not have told her she could fly given shed been exposed. And yet hes still saying when he came on here last night and talked about how thered been no fever, he didnt know about amber until overnight. His underlings are not funneling the information up or Something Else is going on. This is not transparent. Saw the case with the nurse and your case last night with the cdc director, i was very confused. How could you be going on television at 9 00 and then a few hours later the nurse is in a hospital . He had to know. If he didnt know, he was negligent. Ive been calling for his resignation i think since last week. I think that whoever was involved in managing these patients and telling this nurse to go ahead and get on a plane should be fired. This is not the standard but those are the cdcs guidelines and he says today knowing she was exposed to ebola that shouldnt have been allowed. Say were going to send teams and were going to have a better hands on. We know this virus. And if we do these things, youre not going to get it. Well, we know that for a long, long time. Ebola has been around since 1976. You saw the cdc director get off the plane and put a whole bunch of protective covering to go because he knows how infectious ebola is. He says the reason he was so covered in liberia and yet told us last night you didnt need to cover your head and didnt need to double glove and didnt need to cover your shoes is because those are the protocols being used in west africa. They do not mirror the ones used here and the ones here are perfectly adequate. Because there they have ebola. We never had ebola here. So our protocols are very basic. We have blamed first we blamed the nurse for breaking protocol. That kind of was confusing to me. He dialed that back. Now were blaming the hospital. Well, the hospital was really not well prepared for it. Despite the fact that everybody in the administration including himself said dont worry all hospitals were prepared. And ive been saying for a long time all hospitals are not created equal. Last night on the program he was talk about how individual hospitals should be able to treat this disease. And then today they fly this new victim of the virus to emory. Which is what ive been asking him why dont we send the ones who get it to emory to places that are prepare snd. That is correct. Because there are maybe two or three hospitals that have the infrastructure, the know how to deal with this kind of infectious since this is not just a medical nightmare but a pr nightmare for the administration, they released a statement from someone being treated for the diagnosis saying i want to maintain my anonymity right now but i want you to know i am doing better. So just because you get ebola doesnt mean you necessarily die. Trying to make people feel better about that. So if these nurses just contracted it thanks to this patient who was mismanaged, if they survive it are they going to be okay . Well, you know, theres some side effects from surviving ebola. Thats another story. You know, when you look at the data of people the mortality rate for ebolas about 70 , all right . So if you survive better in a country like ours. But still up to 50 . 50 50 shot of dying. Of dying. But if you die, thats one thing. But if you survive it, there are longterm consequences that can develop. You have chronic arthritis can develop, autoimmune problems, eye diseases. If you have had a lot of high fevers for a long, long time for a young woman you could have fertility issues. So its not so much that, yeah, i went through ebola, i survived, i get a tshirt and move on. But let me press you on dr. Frieden. Obviously hes come under fire. This is a virus. It travels. Theyre doing the best they can. Do you think theres anybody we can put in there that says weve got it perfectly handled. Doesnt matter who lies to the airport authorities. I will make sure not a single case gets into the United States or spreads. Look, theres a lot of good scientists out there and private industry even in our defense department. This has right now we are dealing with the cdc problem that requires almost a military approach. A military handson approach. If this virus ends up in south america or central america, what do you think is going to happen . Were going to have chaos on our hands. Youre going to have people going through the borders being afraid, and i dont blame them, they dont have the infrastructures either in south america or in central america. Thats clearly what happened with patient zero who got in liberia, had been handling a dying patient who had ebola repeatedly and then lied to the authorities about whether he had it because he probably wanted to get care here and even we could not save him. I looked at a press conference from august 4th, the president of the United States was getting ready to welcome all the leaders from africa. There was a question about ebola and they asked the president are you worried about ebola and he said, well, im not worried but were going to have Detailed Analysis of people over there and when they get here were going to check them here, back on august 4th. Thats what weve seen the piecemeal in his representations fall apart. No one seems to be coming out responsibility, we made a mistake. They like to skip that first step. Dr. Manny, good to see you. Thank you. More breaking news on this story moments ago. This time a new announcement from the white house just as we were coming to air, ed henry and dana are live with us next on that. Plus, the head of one of the countrys biggest nurses groups is with us in moments. Wait until you hear what she is telling us about the situation on the front lines for these nurses.

Breaking tonight, we just got word from the white house moments ago that president obama is now canceling another trip as concern grows over ebola in the United States. The white house saying the president will stay in washington to followup on todays Cabinet Meeting on the governments response to this problem. This is a stark departure from the white houses typical response to crises from the benghazi terror attacks to the beheading of james foley, the president historically has not let his political obligations fall by the wayside in the face of crisis. The commander in chief was spotted on the golf course after the beheading of james foley, something for which he expressed regret. But typically he had gone out, fund raised, gone golfing without apology. Not so tonight. Ed henry is live at the white house with more. Ed. Megyn, bottom line is the president is playing defense on a range of crises like isis in addition to the ebola situation. What he was doing today was to try to move aggressively to show hes on top of the ebola emergency. Youre right, it was out of character for him, certainly different from what hes done before. He cancelled not guilty just one but two trips. He was supposed to do fund raidsing in new jersey, campaigning in connecticut, an economic speech in rhode island, canceled now were told. Even though hes repeatedly continued campaigning through other crises. In fact, this summer when he faced heat over that his Communications Director had a very interesting quote to New York Times. It is rarely a good idea to return to the white house just for show when the situation can be handled responsibly from the road. Abrupt changes to the schedule can have the unintended consequence of undually alarming the American People or reuaticr a false sense of crisis. There is no false sense of crisis. Why saying the second nurse should not have flown from cleveland to dallas, why are we still allowing planes coming in from africa, why have we not instituted a broader travel ban, listen. Why is it still appropriate for the u. S. To allow people to fly into america from the hot zone . Quite simply, ed, because theres a multilayered screening protocol thats in place to ensure that individuals that may have symptoms consistent with ebola are not even able to board planes in west africa. Now, republican Speaker John Boehner has just put out a statement dismissing that saying there needs to be a full travel ban to protect the country. Megyn. Ed, thank you. Joining me now, cohost of the five, White House Press secretary of president george w. Bush. So now the cdc says she should not have flown, this nurse number two. And yet when they said that they didnt come out and say we were the ones she to her credit called them on monday and said should i fly and they said, yes, you can. So when you came out today and said she shouldnt have, it should have been followed up with but thats our bad because we told her she could. In addition to the crisis president obama is trying to prevent in terms of an outbreak in america, the crisis of confidence is undermining the president s position because theyre operating in a deficit, from a credibility standpoint. So they risk looking inept, incompetent and arrogant. Because for the last three weeks really theyve said let me tell you for 30 minutes why weve done everything we possibly can and nobody needs to worry. And there wont be an outbreak here in the u. S. There wont be one. The president said your chances of catching ebola are extraordinarily low. Thats true. But this is also an extraordinarily precarious time for the white house from a kmup kagss standpoint. I think he was right to cancel the trip. But to ed henrys point before theyve said the president doesnt need to do that. It would cause undue alarm. Now canceling two trips in two days. When they stood by their plans for so many major crises that we faced in the past. From russia invading ukraine and you name it, they have gone forward and said not to worry. And now that hes canceling everything, you think do we need to worry . What does he know . Theyre in a catch22. However i do think thats the right decision for him to be there. Plus the democrats will never complain that the president didnt raise enough money for them in the midterm. At this point this is not about the midterm. This is about government. And i think what i would also ask if i were reporters is did dr. Frieden tell josh earnest, the press secretary, or the president of the United States before the Cabinet Meeting that the cdc had told her she could fly . Because thats a key piece of information. Right. If that was not communicated to the white house, thats a problem. And how does he tell me on the show last night that none of the 48 theyre monitoring in dallas, texas, who are Just Community people, none has a fever. But he doesnt mention the fact that one of the ones selfmonitoring who treated the patient who had extensive interaction with him reported a fever to the cdc as of monday and told to get on an airplane. It is possible, megyn, he did not know. Thats what were being told. An underling handled it. If i was at the white house i would do two things, two people over to embed with the cdc. From a communications standpoint, while they need to manage the problem and crisis, they also need to manage their communications. Dr. Frieden is not a communications expert. Hes a health guy. I would embed two people they trust to go to the cdc and walk with them and be in that building. Latest fox news poll shows that 58 of the country now believes the country, and i quote, is going to hell in a hand basket. That just came out tonight. What does that mean for the white house in this crisis. A poll says hes at 25 approval with independents. Thats what i mean when i say the president is operating already in the hole. So in order to get to neutral, he has to convince people hes got everything under control. Its a high barre for them to try to clear. Not that the country, but the world. Were all going to hell in a hand basket together. Up next on the breaking news tonight a warning about the situation on the front lines of these hospitals. And disturbing new details on the legacy of evil left by Saddam Hussein as we learn the terror army of isis may be sitting on a stockpile of chemical weapons kid hey dad, who was that man .

The news has been breaking all day on ebola as we first learn now that a Second Health care worker has been diagnosed with the illness that she traveled while sick from dallas to cleveland and back. And tonight she says it was the centers for Disease Control that gave her an okay to get on the plane despite the fact that she was showing early symptoms. Her fever was not high enough to ban her but high enough to concern her. And now the cdc says she shouldnt have gotten on the plane. Member of the board of National Nurses united. I know youve written a letter directly to the white house saying were done with the cdc. Were going directly to the commander in chief to try to get these nurses protected. I know youre very concerned about them. What is the president do that he hasnt already done . He can mandate uniform National Standards and protocols that are enforceable in the hospitals throughout the United States. The cdc doesnt have the ability to mandate that the hospitals follow their guidelines. The guidelines that that they have issued are just that, guidelines. So were asking the president to issue use his, you know, executive authority to mandate that hospitals follow those uniform National Standards and protocols. Nurses have been asking for the proper equipment and that is the optimal protective equipment including hazmat suits, respiratory protection, another nurse to watch us put this equipment on and take it off so that we can be safe. Thats apparently coming. Dr. Frieden said theyre going to have somebody there monitoring. But he also told me you dont need pursuant to the cdcs existing guidelines you dont need head cover, dont need double gloved and dont need to cover your shoes. Yet he dressed up like that when he went to liberia. But he doesnt think you need to do it here. Your thoughts on that . Well, we need to start listening to the registered nurses in the hospital throughout the United States. When the registered nurses are telling you that you dont have protocols in place for us to follow nor do we have the proper equipment, then that needs to be taken care of. When we look to either nebraska or people transporting these patients or even the people who are dealing with the waste from these patients, theyre all wearing full protective gear, theyre wearing respiratory protection. And they are covered head to toe. So thats what we want. Nurses who are going to risk our lives to take care of these Patients Want nothing less than full protection in order to do so. The head of the cdc told me yesterday that the protocols are clear and correct. And, you know, hes obviously tweaking them here and there as they go along, but he says the protocols themselves are clear and correct. Do you agree . I would say that if protocols to be worth anything it has to actually get into the hands of the people that are going to use it. And what nurses throughout the United States are saying is that we do not have any protocols or mostly we dont have protocols that weve been trained to. So we are asking for that training. And the hospitals have thus far in the vast majority of cases not provided that. The dallas nurses association, which obviously has been dealing with this, came out and said our advanced preparation given to us consistented of an email about one optional lecture on ebola. There was no mandate for us to attend. There was no advanced handon training in how to use the personal protective equipment. No training on the symptoms of ebola, no training on what questions to ask. Not even a policy on cleaning or bleaching or anybody to pick up the hazardous waste, as it piled to the ceiling. Do you believe that our front line medical workers are literally risking their lives now . Oh, absolutely. I believe that if you are asked to take care of an ebola patient and you do not have the proper training and equipment in place, that you are risking your life. That said, we have to really prepare everybody, all of the nurses in the United States and Health Care Workers because while, you know, the emory and nebraska are fantastic, the patients are going to access care wherever they are. So theyre going to walk into a clinic or an emergency room or, you know, labor and delivery, wherever it might be. And every nurse needs to know how to properly care for these patients, identify them, have a communication plan in place. I got to go. But i have to ask you a quick question, do you think we should have a travel ban . You know, my understanding is that the Health Care Experts that deal with Public Health dont believe a ban on public travel is helpful. But again, im a direct care nurse. So what i know about is taking care of patients in the hospital. I know what we need for that. God bless you for all that you do and the other nurses do. They literally put their lives on the line to help unwell people. All the best to you. Thank you. Up next, new details on reports that the terror army known as isis may now have chemical weapons at its disposal. Plus, were tracking a story tonight about the state department giving a thumbs up on a manual that suggests jihad is a noble calling.

Just a recap for those of us joining us late tonight. We got video a short time ago as the latest patient with the ebola virus arrived in atlanta. The patient is in the yellow suit. The patient will be treated in a special Isolation Unit which has so far handled other cases of ebola patients. She is named, this nurse, Amber Vincent. And she treated the first patient who came over from liberia. She then traveled from texas to cleveland and then back to texas on monday after being exposed. The cdc told her she could do it. More on this as we get it. A disturbing report of leftover chemical weapons in iraq after the fall of Saddam Hussein. Soldiers coming in contact with this until as recently at 2011. The majority of discoveries happened in an area thats now under the control of the terror army known as isis. General jack keane, former army vice chief of staff. Good to see you. The New York Times is reporting that the chemical weapons first have already been used against u. S. Troops in the course of our first stint in iraq. And that the government, the u. S. Government decided to keep it quiet. Is that true . Well, i find that hard to believe. Well, frankly the weapons could be used by isis. Obviously they found some of these old weapons. And go back to the 80s, et cetera, our troops found some of them as well. Their mission was our troops mission was not to clean this up. That was something the iraqis was supposed to do. And obviously they didnt do a very good job of it. So isis had those. And a lot of them are probably not useful. Some of them probably are. And whether they put them into syria and have begun to use them, you know, with their front line troops, certainly thats possible. So youre telling me now that there is credible evidence that isis has control of an area in which what portion of chemical weapons are sitting, have been left behind . Yeah, actually they were in there as early as of 2013 in vicinities where those chemical weapons were conducting terrorist activities. Now they control some of that area physically every day. So its indisputable that they have access to some of it. The times is reporting that these chemical weapons and the use against u. S. Troops happened between 2004 and 2008 but was kept a secret by the u. S. Government because they didnt want it to be used, i guess, by the enemies against the United States. They didnt want it to get out that they had chemical weapons. But why would the u. S. Government keep it a secret as it has been for all this time that chemical weapons were found in iraq . I dont think it was any plot so to speak, megyn, as my take on it talking to people, you know, who knew about it. I mean, it was Common Knowledge in the chain of command that these stored sites existed and occasionally our soldiers would bang into these things. They had taken them out of some of the Storage Facilities and hid them in literally in chemical weapons grave sites off the side of the road or whatever. And our guys ran into it. It wasnt just a military base that the iraqis used to have. I dont think there was any intention to cover it up. These things got reported through the chain of command. As a matter of fact, i know from talking to people involved that the sunni insurgents used some of these as iuds against us. Normally take a high explosive damaging to a vehicle thats what would maim and kill our soldiers catastrophically. But sometimes they use, not often, this is just a couple of occasions, theyve used a chemical weapon. From the best of my knowledge didnt kill anybody, but it did obviously hurt them. And some of the chemicals were old and decay and didnt have as much impact is what ive been told. Theyre not in good hands now. General keane, thank you. Good talking to you, megyn.

Breaking tonight, Texas Attorney general greg abbott now demanding that houston city officials withdraw subpoenas that they issued for five local pastors now being questioned about the sermons that they are making. Pat starns fox news radio host broke this story and has the details. Looks like the mayor got their hand caught in the religious liberty cookie jar. We know five pastors in the houston area were handed these subpoenas. And the city was specifically looking for all of their correspondents with their pa igsers. They were looking for sermons where the pastors talked about ho homosexuality, and the mayor herself. Who is openly gay. Openly gay and severely the religious community there has a problem with this component of this ordinance that allow men as women to use the restroom of their choice and vicerer sa. Thats where the number of the religious members in that community had issue. So they challenged it in court. They want another vote on it. Right. They want another vote. So there was a lawsuit filed. And in the process of discovery the city went after these pastors who were not even party to this lawsuit and demanded that they turn over this information. Whats interesting is just a few moments ago the attorney general weighed in. And we do know that the subpoenas have not been rescinded, but a Texas Attorney general greg abbott just released a statement and he is demanding that the city of houston rescind those subpoenas. And he says the people of houston and their religious leaders must be absolutely secure in the knowledge that their religious affairs are beyond the reach of the government. And he called what they did a direct assault on religious liberty, megyn. I think thats written in the constitution somewhere. Thank you. Thanks. For more on this joined by tony perkins. So this mayor, tony, today she came out. I want to share with the viewers now under fire, right, for going fine. She can litigate the issue of, you know, gay rights and lesbian rights, but what shes done now is try to go specifically after the pastor who is arent involved in the lawsuit saying tell me everything youve said about gays and lesbians. Lets play the sound bite today of what she said. Were not interested in at all in what someone may have preached about me or glbt community. It is part of the discovery process. Were not interested in that. And yet look at the tweet she sent out. If the five pastors used pulpits for politics, their sermons are fair game. So which is it, ms. Mayor . Well, megyn, its very clear here. In fact, i talked to the pastors this afternoon. Theyre fine with anybody listening to their sermons. In fact, but you dont need a subpoena to get their sermons. You can listen to them online. But this is not about the sermons. Its not about biblical instruction on homosexuality. This is about political intimidation. Thats what is so chilling about this. Its not just the sermon. They can have the sermons. But its about privileged communication between pastors and members of their church. This is a bad ordinance. It was a misguided ordinance to begin with. It turned into morphed into an attack on Voting Rights because they gathered 55,000 signatures to put this on the ballot, approved by the secretary of the city. And then the mayor stepped in in a very unusual move and invalidated the signatures. So now its an attack on the first amendment. This mayor is in a heap of trouble in houston. Now they did come out through their attorney, the city did, dialing it back. We dont necessarily need the sermons. This is being blown up. Basically were looking for information relevant to this lawsuit in which we now find ourselves with those who oppose the ordinance. And if the pastors are preaching from the pulpit, well, theyre not allowed to preach politics. And thats federal law. We hear so much about the separation of church and state, that wall of separation. She has taken a bulldozer to that wall of separation and is now trying to drive into the church and dictate what pastors preach. She is using the bully pulpit to try and silence the pulpits of the churches in houston. This is unprecedented. And weve been hearing from pastors across the nation. Pastors have the right to speak to the moral issues of the day. As an ordained minister myself, i would say not only they have a right but they have an obligation to preach to those issues so people in their churches know how they should live their lives according to these things. Again, shes welcome to have the sermons. In fact, they would love to have her come and sit in their churches and hear them for herself. Yeah, but the Chilling Effect that this may be having. You know, the legal expert who is have been asked about this from both the left and the right, as ive read up in the case, say look, its one if a Group Whether its the naacp or its a religious organization, if they start getting political, they could lose their tax exempt status. That is a real issue. But thats a federal issue. Its not really an issue for the mayor. Hence raising the questions about whether this is more about intimidation. Ill give you a quick final word. Well, youre right. Politics isnt election politics, theyre preaching about moral issues of the day. And theyre free to do that. And she has no right to try to stop them. The pastors are not ashamed of what theyve been preaching. She can hear those sermons. This is about intimidation. Exactly. And if you show up to church, you can hear the whole thing. Theres the offering she might have to put into. So maybe thats why shes not going. Sometimes they come around twice ive noticed. Good to see you. New questions for the state department after it endorses a handbook that suggests jihad is a noble calling. Andy mccarthy is here next. Wait until you see this. Want to change the world .

Changing the world is part of the job description. [ male announcer ] join the scientists and engineers of exxonmobil in inspiring americas future engineers. Energy lives here. New reaction tonight to the state department seemingly endorsing a muslim handbook which claim that jihad is a noble calling and which of written by an organization that promotes sharia law. Andy mccarthy is former chief assistant attorney who led the prosecution against the blind sheikh in the trade center bombing. It was a muslim group in canada, canada and they put out this antiterror handbook of starts off fine. So far, so good. Inside the antiterror handbook, they refer to jihad as noble and want Law Enforcement to avoid term such as islamic extremism. Our state department sends this out saying enjoy. Thats the position of the obama administration. It has been from the beginning of the administration. John brennan who is now the head of the cia of the president s counterterrorism czar, gave a speech in, i think it was 2010, which said precisely this. That we cant use the word jihad in connection with terrorism because jihad is a noble concept in islam. And what he proceeded to say of that its this purification of the self or purification of the neighborhood. Now in point of fact, if you go to the manuals of sharia law, it says and its not andy mccarthys manual, right, the muslim brotherhoods think tank and the alczar university in cairo. Jihad is to war again nonmuslims. Thats what it says. The hand book says something very different. Lets put it on the board so viewers can see what our state department appears to want you to read. In section five, the recommendation for intelligence and Law Enforcement. Do not refer to terrorists as jiha jihadis. This embolden them give them status. Terrorism is not jihad. Jihad is a nobody concept in islam. Right. Do you think for a second that, say, zawahiri think about what we think of jihadist do you think they identify themselves or selfperceive on the base igs of what their en basis of what their enemies think . They say dont use term like islamism terrorism, extremism, instead use accurate terms like al qaedainspired extremist. We have seen some of that in the United States. This isnt just from canada. Makes you wonder if it was an accident at the state department. The state department is saying we were simply share information about a new product related to counterterrorism. Our reposting doesnt show an endorsement. In our country, theyve purged materials that they used to train Law Enforcement, military, and intelligence people. Theyre taken out thing that might cause a front if youre a moderate islamist which back when i was a prosecutor is the kind of stuff we used to call evidence. They also this is not the first time the state department has offered a tweet seeming to endorse a controversial figure or ideology. So they had they endorsed the radical muslim cleric of the president. Then apologized for doing. That the president mentioned the same guy in his address before the understanding. Im starting to wonder whether this is accidental. He endorsed the fattah against american soldier in iraq. This guy who the state wanted to kill u. S. Soldiers, we endorsed him, and he was touted the best spin to give them the benefit of the doubt is anyone who even seems like theyre rejecting are real violent jihad, they want to get on the bandwagon and theyre not interested in the fine print. They dont care that theyre sharia promoters. Why isnt that legitimate . Maybe the terrorists upon listen to them. Not going to listen to you. Theyre not. But the problem is that you cant separate the doctrine from the jihad. If youre going to read this it stuff in a serious way, thats just a fact of life. And for us to ignore it makes us less safe because were just were not dealing with reality. Theres a question about whether or not this guy instructs Muslim Community members not to cooperate with the police which is, you know, not exactly helpful. Good to see you. Good to see you.
