Terrorist organizations ability to communicate. They have the ability to reach into our communities and attempts to recruit and inspire individuals who may turn toward violence right here in the homeland. This has to be a collective effort as the Vice President said yesterday, it has to be more than a military response. It requires not only a whole of government effort by the whole of society effort. State and local Law Enforcement which is represented in this room as well as the public and the community. The campaign if you see something Say Something has to be more than a slogan.

And minneapolis but also to columbus chicago and i intend to do more of these and it was through these engagements in these meetings that i have had the opportunity to meet many of you in this room. Let me share with you just a couple of observa
With what he is doing. So you sort of have this strange triangle, aig, the government, mr. Greenburg himself and the shareholders. Rose we conclude this evening with the new film gone girl we have the director david finch and the stars ben affleck and rosamund pike. Also the arthur Gillian Flynn. What these guys put together was a really interesting challenge, and a really interesting and unusual protagonist it is not a conventional protagonist. Hollywood has an obsession of likability. If you read studio notes, the guy is not likable enough. We are not invested vested with him enough. So to make somebody likable the theory goes you have to, like, adhere to these six or seven articles of behavior. And this movie, this book and movie seem to totally want to abandon that. I certainly started the story with that idea of, you know, what how honest are we ever in relationships. You know, i like that idea that we are kind of emotional conartists when we start in on, you know, any sort of mee
We cannot negotiate with the evil that is isis. We cannot talk them down rejuvenating to stop their brutality and murder of are all those ago under the same ideology but we can attempt to inoculate ourselves and seek to destroy them eventually. If we dont i guarantee we will call ourselves into a space dozens of complacency to forget about post nine levin frantic ness and just go back to sleep i guarantee we will wake up to a very nasty shock down the road if we dont open to competition.

If they ask you what you would like, you answer a cup of coffee. They never asked us what we wanted. Watch all of our events from greensboro. And on American History tv at cspan3. The white house recently hosted a threeday summit on combating terrorism. Homeland security secretary jeh johnson called the terrorist threat more complex since 9 11. He also talked about funding for dhs which is set to expire next week unless Congress Takes action. This is 10 minutes. Thank you. Good morning everybody. As i look around the room at so many familiar faces from places as varied as boston, minneapolis, l.

Alien and sedition act. What is the view of those both of them on this . Some people thought we were about to be overrun by french revolutionaries and the a were influencing people in america. There were rumors that cities would be burned. It was terrorism they were anticipating. For example, the opposition party, the Democratic Republican Party was very enthusiastic about the french and some of the ideals of the french revolution. Jefferson in particular. This is where they begin to go in different directions. Also, some of the press is very vehement in their criticism of the administration.
