and those people are apparently inside the families, again, on the attacks in paris. we know that, there are two brothers that s now the cousin of the architect of the fact. this is a family structure. so the french services are trying from time to time to listen to the family members hoping sometimes it s going to bring them something. and apparently it was the case for this one. laura haim, thank you for guiding our live coverage of that raid last night and thank you for joining us again tonight. you re welcome. coming up, islamic state released new propaganda video today. this time showing images of new york city. obviously intended to be taken as a threat to new york city. next, more on the investigation by french authorities. i chose to bring them here today because i think it s important for them to understand what s going on.
opposed allowing syrian refugees in this country. isil seeks to exploit the idea that there s a war between islam and the west. and when you start seeing individuals in positions of responsibility suggesting that christians are more worthy of protection than muslims are in a war-torn land, that feeds the isil narrative. these are the same folks often times who suggest they re so tough that just talking to putin or staring down isil or using some additional rhetoric is somehow going to solve the problem s out there. but apparently they re afraid of widows and orphans coming into america as a part of our tradition of compassion. at first, they were worried about the press being too tough
it s been used in previous isis videos. and so it is not new, the threat is not new, but the video message is new, which is threaten france yet again in the same video saying this is not over. and it s not over, i guess, on a much wider scale. it s not over for france or other countries we view as enemy nations. all of us here in new york wake up knowing this is a target. the nypd obviously knows it s a target city. how does this video change nypd and security in general posture in new york city? well, you can see from the new terrorist team, the 500-man terrorist team they employed they re on top of their game. but the new yorkers aren t in any more danger before the video than they are today. i agree with leif on that. there is a light motif that terrorists want to hit manhattan, but it hasn t gotten more dangerous. what s the most dangerous thing at the moment, i think, is the
these are people fleeing persecution. these are victims of the terrorist groups. they re really a very low risk for this. it s just sort of a posturing and, like leif said, politicians fear mongering. law enforcement wouldn t want to spend a lot of time on this. i can tell you, they should be vetted, of course. anybody coming into the country, i totally agree, but the risk is more people in europe, western europe, who really are isis members, really are al qaeda people, really have traveled to fight in syria, iraq, years ago, afghanistan. those people who we know and who really are terrorists coming over to the united states on a visa program, not refugees being persecuted, barely getting away with their lives and their babies and the clothes on their back. i don t think there s very much danger there at all. thank you both for joining us tonight. coming up, republican rhetoric
for her to hear someone speak her language. yes. she was less wounded than others so she had to wait a long time, a very long time lying op the floor. has this taken something from the paris that we all know and love? absolutely not. they didn t take anything. we will really stand up and we will really fight in our own way. we will always have annoy everybody with our horrible smelly cheese. french art, french culture, none of this has been taken. and this happened in paris now, but for me, it happened in all the world at the same time. up next, hardball. isis threatens new york, time square targeted.
