a love tap. let s start somewhere else. in ohio, a man there, an american facing terrorism charges this morning. investigators say he trained overseas and returned home intent on attacking americans. it s the kind of homegrown terror plot feared by most law enforcement. here s abc s pierre thomas. reporter: the fbi says this 23-year-old american had returned to the u.s. wanting to do something big. including going to a texas military base to kill american soldiers execution style allegedly inspired by isis, abdirahman sheik mohamud left columbus, ohio, last april with a one-way airline ticket to greece but during a layover in turkey, he disappeared, slipping into syria. the fbi says once there, he joined an al qaeda affiliate. training in weapons, breaking into houses, explosives, and hand to hand combat. perhaps most disturbing, prosecutors claim, a cleric in syria directed him to return to the united states and carry out an act of terrorism.
world, it has happened also inside the u.s. army. so we need to understand what this humanly possible. over a million american soldiers in rotations have seen service in my country. the number of incidents of there were sab tours attacking americans, very regrettable, incredibly small thank god. how would you describe the differences between your vision for afghanistan and your relationship with america and your predecessors? i consider our relationship with the united states to be foundational. tragedy brought us together. i was a couple hundred meters away on 9/11. you were hear at the world bank? i was here at the world bank. new york my wife and i are graduates of columbia university my daughter was in
this. now, if you are head of isis and you are going to plan something against the united states and you want to do a background check on who the president was and you found out that he thought that the real threat was the cia attacking americans at starbucks, would you really be afraid to attack the united states? congressman also had choice words for senator ted cruz of texas as well. then we have ted cruz who believe that if the government should be shut down a year and a half ago. he went on the senate floor and red dr. seuss. again, do you really want a commander in chief who thinks the way to run the government is to read dr. seuss and shut down the united states government? no. we need to be responsible adults. joined by dana milbank and former united states senator from arkansas blanche. i love it when he brings out the tommy gun and mows down these
sergeant, the one development i worry the most about this week in these reports of 40 americans who made their way back here after hooking up with isis over there. i don t nope what went wrong but i know that 40 of them back in this country, and many of them we can t trace their whereabouts that s a big and immediate domestic concern. what do you say? it certainly and is not just to the 40 that have the been repatriated to the united states now but it s the lack of u.s. policy and presence taking the global leadership role. the broader vision for america we should be forward on this. instead we re waiting for allies, the gulf state countries to take the lead. jordan great to see them onboard but if the u.s. does not have a hardened policy against isis, they re recruit only big ideas. with woe don t compete with that with our larger ideas and have an ambiguous policy of leaving service members in harm s way, we can expect to deal with this problem for a long time. the iranian influe
is the president selling selma? the notion that say some young kid brought here when they were two or three or four years old might somehow be deported at the age of 20 or 25 even though they have grown up as americans that s not who we are. that s not true to the spirit of what the march on selma was about. not what the march on selma was about. i know you and i are about the same age but we weren t much older than toddlers back them but i m sure we looked at the history since. selma was about legal americans denied their rights not illegal americans thinking they were entitled to their rights. don t use the blood of victims to score some political points
