human tragedy. i think there s another all the information taken off the site, the term-of-art is reason. the reason that jeremy and i and mass effects. you want to take that others like us went into information and act upon it to national security, it used to be that politics ended at the basically totally uproot the remnants of isis cells and water s edge. once you re involved in these networks across particularly sort of operations this was about america s national iraq and syria but really around security, not parties. the world. our ability to do that great successes like this are an effectively is really limited opportunity to make it a because we ve given up so much national celebration and a of northeast syria and we had national victory rather than a been established there in a partisan one. the first people that president decent way, particularly through obama called after bin laden the end of last year when were president bush and president clinton. president trump said ge
this fight is not over. it will remain a multi-year effort. reporter: multi-year effort because they still want to go after the self-proclaimed capital of raqqah. that s yet to come. when you look at the proliferation of isis cells and supporters and lone wolf attacks across europe, even here in the united states, that still is a very big problem. but he did talk about some success they have had to that end, that they did go after three leaders in raqqah, syria that were involved in the attacks in paris and planning attacks in brussels. those three leaders were killed. so they are making great gains against isis and its leaders on the battlefield in iraq and syria, but isis still remains a threat not only in the middle east but also to europe and the united states. very soon, donald trump will be taking on and heading up the mission to battle isis. great to see you. thank you. so donald trump is also hosting today who s who of tech executives at trump tower. one big name is missi

carry out acts on a small scale but with enough frequency that they are troubling and, nfin fa, more than just troubling. you see that here in the west with folks, most of them, have no contact with isis, they re simply being incited by isis to carry out acts of violence. and you see acts like this. and again one of the interesting things here in beirut is that supposedly there was one suicide bomber. and it is interesting that for a major attack they only involved one bomber. does that mean they have a shortage of personnel or are they leaving out details here? a third individual was captured or intercepted. we ll see what information comes out from there, whether or not this was something planned inside syria or whether or not there are active isis cells and network that right now is inside of lebanon. that s more disturbing. i think it s likely, but understanding the extent to which that s the case is important for lebanese authorities to figure out whether or not this is an
