7:00 pm
the county executive saying of the feds, "if they can bail out the banks, they can bail out ferguson." what do you think of that? go to facebook.com/thekellyfile. follow me on twitter. let me know your thoughts. i'm megyn kelly. this is "the kelly file." welcome to this special edition of "hannity." for the entire hour we're going to be focusing on the rise of radical islam around the world and what it means for the safety and security for our homeland. recently i had the opportunity to speak with former vice president dick cheney about the dangers posed by the islamic extremists and he explained why the administration needs to wake up and take these terrorist threats very seriously. you know, you said a while back that a lot of people kind of hemmed and hawed at what you said, you predicted america will likely get hit in the next ten years in a way that is worse than 9/11. did you watch this video?
7:01 pm
>> i've seen -- not the entire video, just the edited version. >> okay. i watched this video. you know, remember the 9/11 commission report conclusion, they are at war with us. we weren't at war with them. after watching this video i'm convinced we have a group of people at war with us. would you agree with that? >> absolutely, sean. there's no question but with the developments in iraq and syria, the development of a caliphate, with the isis organization in charge, is very much a threat to the united states, to our friends and allies not only in the middle east but in europe. and when you see them behead an american reporter as they did today, that's obviously a terrible development. but magnify that a million times over because that's what's in store for the rest of the world if we don't deal effectively with this crisis. >> you know, the president said the tide of wars receding, gm is
7:02 pm
alive, bin laden is dead, ft. hood still referred to officially as workplace violence. here's what the president said in an interview with the new yorker about isis. he said, well, the analogy we use around here sometimes and i think it is accurate that, you know, as if a jayvee team puts on laker uniforms that doesn't make them kobe bryant. what part of this is the president missing, mr. vice president? >> well, i keep wrestling with this question, sean, of whether it's naive or lack of experience or because that's the way he wants things to work. i've just about reached the point or i've concluded that what he is discovering fairly late in his administration is that his basic world view is fundamentally flawed, that the world is a mean, nasty place on occasion that you need a very strong america, you need superior american military forces to deal with it. and i think every single day that goes by he's finding that there's a bigger and bigger gulf
7:03 pm
between his hoped for view of the world and reality. not up t not want to believe all that's going on out there. but every day we find new evidence that he'd rather be on the golf course than he'd be dealing with a crisis that's developing rapidly in the middle east. >> what was your reaction today when the president minutes after giving that statement ran off to the golf course to play with alonso morning. what was your reaction to that? >> i noticed the reaction of david cameron, the british prime minister, when he found out that the individual who apparently did the beheading was speaking with a british accent. he immediately wanted to head back to london and go back to work. try to deal with the problems that that represents. and of course our president headed for the golf course as soon as he made his relatively ineffective statement. >> i would think a more appropriate place might be the situation room. i think a more appropriate place would be the white house. we have all these radical
7:04 pm
islamic groups, islamic jihad, boko haram, hamas, isis, isil, al qaeda, there are differences, but there seems to be one thing that they all agree on. that is they want to wipe israel off the map. and they also want to destroy the west and advance a caliphate. do you think the president fully understands the danger of radical islam? and what do you think the danger is if you can explain it in your own words? >> well, i think the danger's enormous. i don't think the president understands it. i look at things like the rand report that was published a couple months ago that talked about a 58% increase in the number of jihadist groups around the world over a three-year period of time. i look at the statements by general flynn who is just stepping down as director of the defense intelligence agency who says over a ten-year period of time there's been a doubling of the terrorist threat in that part of the world. the intelligence is there for all to see. there's no question about what's
7:05 pm
happening. but to this president and the people around him refuse to recognize it and certainly refuse to deal with it. the damage that is being done after we talk tonight, sean, to the american military, is enormous. they're taking our army down below levels we haven't seen since pearl harbor. they've made major reductions in the air force and navy. there was a recent excellent study done by a commission, bipartisan commission, republican and democrat alike, studying the long-term trends of the defense budget that basically concludes there's no way under current circumstances we can execute the national strategy. so it's a train wreck. and there's one more train wreck every day. it's hard to believe that this president is as ineffective as he clearly is. >> mr. vice president, we have seen the rise of isis, isil, throughout the region from syria. we lost 4,000 americans in the iraq war. city after city that they freed
7:06 pm
and albeit it wasn't a perfect democracy, but they were an ally and a democracy, an emerging democracy in iraq prior to the administration coming into power. there seems to be two issues that are the foundation for the situation now. one was when the president drew the red line in the sand with syria and did nothing after they used chemical weapons. and also the president pulling out training and intelligence for the iraqi forces. my question to you is did isis gain control of these areas of syria now surrounding baghdad? is this all a result of the president's bad policy, the naive that you discuss? >> well, i think that's part of it. i think he has managed in so many different ways to be ineffective when he responds, to draw the red line in the sand and thep never respond to it. to make threats and never act. it's reached the point where i think around the world people, other leaders, see him as weak
7:07 pm
and ineffective. we have seen it in terms of putin's actions in crimea and the ukraine. we've seen it in what china's trying to do in the south china sea. there's no question but what he's viewed is perhaps the weakest president of my lifetime and that he doesn't have a clue about what needs to be done. and he is opposed to use of military force. we've had a bipartisan agreement, consensus if you will, republican and democrat, since the end of world war ii that the world's a safer place when the united states is actively and aggressively leading, when we have a strong military and we provide the kind of leadership that the world needs to deal with these crises. barack obama doesn't believe that. barack obama doesn't believe that. he's the first in a chain of presidents going back to harry truman of either party that simply refuses to recognize the reality of the world we live in. >> with that said, i'm not sure america has the appetite. you know, all those cities that americans fought and died for in iraq now, isis is l kcontrollin
7:08 pm
many of them. what should be done if the country doesn't have an appetite for war. and i want your answer viewed through the prism that you think something horrific is likely to happen, worse than 9/11, in the next ten years. >> well, i think the question of lack of desire for war, i think that's a general proposition for the american people. we're basically peaceful democratically elected governments. we periodically have to use military force and you've got to explain to the american people why that's necessary, what the dangers are, what the objectives are. that's leadership. and barack obama's not providing that. of course it's difficult to persuade the american people that we ought to send our sons and daughters off to fight a war. but sometimes it's absolutely necessary. and that's why we have presidents. and that's why they have authority as commander in chief
7:09 pm
to make those decisions and why those of us who are involved need to do everything we can to support them and support our troops in the field. now, is there a great threat coming? absolutely. remember what happened on 9/11 when 19 guys armed with airline tickets and box cutters came here and killed 3,000 of us, took down the world trade center, blew a big hole in the pentagon. i'm absolutely certain that some day there will be another mass casualty attack against the united states, only next time they'll have far deadlier weapons. >> let me ask you this, you're the president of the united states and now you know that if you respond to isis that another american, another video like the one that i watched today, will be coming out. how specifically do you handle that? i don't think you're going to find the answer on the golf course, by the way. you know that if you respond militarily that another video with another american being decapitated is going to come out. i would want to talk to the best, brightest, smartest people
7:10 pm
in the country before i made my decision. i like alonso morning, he's a great player. but i don't think he's the guy to be giving advice to the president on this. >> but, sean, with all due respect it's a tragedy when someone dies like that. no question about it. but that's not the issue. they're trying to use terror, obviously acts of terror against us, especially against the press in order to try to force us to change our behavior or to dominate that part of the world. the issue is whether or not we're going to allow them to succeed and their basic fundamental objective of achieving caliphate, true caliphate representative of the kind of thing we saw centuries ago in the middle east. and physical low their ideology which calls not only for the destruction of israel but also for the united states. pull ourselves up by the boot straps and get on with the business of destroying isis or are we going to sit back and agonize over every time they
7:11 pm
commit an outrageous act. >> cia director john brennan in 2011 said the idea of a caliphate's absurd. i want to play this for you. >> our strategy is also shaped by a deeper understanding of al qaeda's goals, strategy and tactics that we have gained over the last decade. i'm not talking about al qaeda's grandiose vision of a violent islamic caliphate, that is absurd and we're not going to -- against a feckless delusion that is never going to happen. we are not going to elevate these thugs and their murderous aspirations into something larger than they are. >> it sounds like a pre-9/11 mentality to me. and how do you answer what he said as israel got hit with 175 rockets in the last 24 hours? aren't they pushing for a caliphate there? >> i think it's really disturbing as i listen to that is that it shows a man who clearly refuses to recognize
7:12 pm
what has to be crossing his desk as the latest intelligence. he can read the rand, the study report. he can read what the director of the cia says about a doubling in the size of the terrorist organizations they're after. he can look at what has happened over the course of the last few weeks as isis has moved in to and now controls the eastern part of syria and the northern part of iraq. with a man like that advising the president, as director of intelligence, it's no wonder the president doesn't understand what's going on out there. >> how do you view the treatment of israel? >> well, i think the treatment of israel -- i think there are a lot of nations in that part of the world that deserve to have strong u.s. support. and israel obviously is right there at the top of the list. but that's true also of the jordanians and the saudis and the emirates and the egyptians. what egypt has done by way of overthrowing the muslim brotherhood is a master stroke.
7:13 pm
and we've now got a good man as president of egypt capable of military -- a good military. and we ought to be backing the egyptians to the hill. so there are a lot of things we could be doing including working with the israelis to take on the terrorists, the islamists, the jihadists in that part of the world. it's in our interest to do so. it's not an act of charity. it's our danger that's threatened. we're the ones that are going to get hit with the next mass casualty attack that potentially kills hundreds of thousands of americans. >> mr. vice president, appreciate your insight. thank you so much for being with us. appreciate your time tonight. >> thank you, sean. thanks for covering it. and coming up, he's never one to mince words, the great one, mark levin, he has a special message for the obama white house. that and more as the special edition of "hannity," the rise of radical islam continues. stay with us. it may seem strange, but people really can love their laxative.

7:15 pm
7:16 pm
welcome back to this special edition of "hannity," the rise of radical islam. for years conservative talk radio hosts including myself we've been warning the obama administration about the danger posed by islamic extremists. but it appears our commander in chief was, well, too preoccupied with his golf game to care. now, i recently sat down with one of the administration's most vocal critics, he's the great one, we call him mark levin, listen in. mark, isis has acquired more land, they have more money, they have more fire power, they are more brutal, evil and ruthless than even al qaeda, if you can imagine. they said to the united states we will see you in new york. we saw what they did to this photo journalist. they said they want to raise the
7:17 pm
flag of islam in our white house. what do you make of the president's reaction or lack thereof? it seems to me that this is a situation where people have declared war against us. >> you know, i want the american people to understand something, sean, the commander in chief, and we only have one, is the president of the united states and his name is barack obama. and these cockroaches organized, funded themselves, built a forceful military, started conquering geographic areas all around the world under his nose. he ignored it. he did nothing about it. he didn't talk to the american people about it. as a matter of fact he downplayed it. this is one of the worst military national security screw ups in modern american history. and he's still screwing up. has he rallied the american people? has he spoken to congress? has he asked for a declaration of war or at least a joint
7:18 pm
resolution to fund an aggressive offensive attack against these cockroaches? no, he hasn't. we're dealing with a very peculiar, pech lent man who operates with a few advisors around him. a man who really needs as much counselling and expertise as he can get given his very thin resume in experience record. this is what's going on -- i'm going to tell you something else because you've brought up a number of issues here. if this president thinks that by changing the word treaty to accord or treaty to deal that he can violate article 2, section 2, clause 2 of the united states constitution which involves the essential rights of the union, that's what governor morris, delegate to the constitutional convention said on september 8th, 1787, this treaty process involves a central rights of the union. then this is number 1,200 example of a lawless imperial president. this treaty process they debated
7:19 pm
at length. they said, no, they don't want the house of representatives involved. they want the senate involved. do you know why? because they wanted the states involved in issues of sovereignty involving america. well, that was blown away with the 17th amendment. but still there has never been a debate, ever, that the senate has the right under our constitution -- >> let me ask you -- >> -- the people to ratify treaties. >> agreed. and i would agree they're bypassing. and i think they think they're being very clever. but this is not unusual. work requirements for welfare have not been enforced. he didn't get his immigration bill, they didn't enforce immigration laws in the country. the same with health care. they make changes to health care, they don't go back to congress. we have co-equal branches of government, separation of powers. he makes recess appointments, no recess. there are three issues on the table now where this president may dictate and not go to congress. air strikes in syria is one, immigration and possibly giving
7:20 pm
amnesty to as many as 6 million people and now this climate change issue. how should republicans deal with this? >> well, i don't know how these republicans should deal with this. i've been arguing for a long time that the leadership is impotent. i do want to say this again to the american people. we're living increasingly in a post-constitutional period. this president is destroying the united states congress with the help of his party, with the help of harry reid in the senate, whether it's the filibuster rule, whether it's treaties or what have you, we've never seen anything like this in american history. even franklin roosevelt's vice president rejected the speaker of the house when he tried to pack the supreme court. we do not have these ethical leading democrats anymore who are standing up to this president. this president does not want to work with congress. he does not want to rally the american people. he wants to go it alone. he's incapable of going it alone. he's doing enormous damage to
7:21 pm
this country. he's e vis rating what's left of the constitution. let me be very clear about this, he is attacking american sovereignty. with this u.n. deal that they're talking about, with the open borders and the executive fiat that he's talking about, these are all efforts to destroy american sovereignty by barack obama. >> you wrote this in one of your books, it's a post constitutional america. which is a pretty frightening thought. if you stand back and listen to the things you're saying, it's pretty frightening. i think he's taken this further than anybody. i know the republicans in the house going forward with the lawsuit, there is the power of the purse, the one senator that tried to do something about health care, using the power of the purse was senator ted cruz. isn't that the one thing, the one weapon that they can use where they have constitutional authority if in fact they want to combat some of these things the president's trying? >> it's a power if they use it. if they don't use it, it's just
7:22 pm
words on a piece of parchment. the fact of the matter is within weeks of becoming speaker of the house john boehner surrendered it. when he came to that continuing resolution, he said he's not going to shut down the government. great. don't shut it down. but do you have to announce it to your adversary on the other side of pennsylvania avenue? government's been shut down 20 times. i don't see where it's done enormous damage. with that said even paul ryan coming on saying it was a disaster, disaster. so what they've done is they have surrendered their powers. okay. impeachment we can't talk about. the power of the purse they're not going to exercise. what the hell's left? if they're not going to act like congress, then congress is going to be destroyed. let me be clear mr. boehner and mr. mcconnell and the republicans, he is destroying congress. and the senate has been i vis
7:23 pm
rated. >> well, said. mark levine, thanks so much for being with us. coming up, despite multiple mass executions and beheading of american journalist james foley, some members of the obama administration still question if isis poses a clear and present danger to the homeland of the united states. coming up next, former director of the central intelligence agency reacts. that and more as this special edition, the rise of radical islam, continues. stay with us.

7:25 pm
live from america's news headquarte headquarters, the united kingdom raising terror threat level to severe, that's the country's second highest threat level. it's in response to the increased violence caused by the isis terror group in iraq and syria. this is the first time in three years they've raised the alert level this high. david cameron says a firm
7:26 pm
security response is needed and leaving no options off the table. meantime, the white house saying it does not expect to follow britain's lead and raise our terror threat level, this as u.s. warplanes continue the attack on isis positions near mosul. there have been 110 strikes since the operation in iraq began three weeks ago. the pentagon is saying military operations there have already cost around $550 million since mid-june. i'm marianne, now back to a "hannity" special. for the latest headlines log onto foxnews.com. and welcome back to this special edition of "hannity," the rise of radical islam. despite the bheding of american journalist james foley at the hands of isis and many officials saying radical militants pose a threat to our homeland. chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, martin dempsey, recently told reporters that isis is not a direct threat to the united states and he won't recommend air strikes in syria against
7:27 pm
them just yet. that's a far cry from what people like former deputy cia director mike morell has been saying about isis. take a look. >> i think there are three things we have to worry about. two are short-term. one is long-term. the two short-term pieces are, number one, will they inspire somebody here to conduct an attack. the second is, there's a number of americans, a number of canadians and a number of west europeans who went to syria to join isis to fight with them. any one of those could be directed back at the united states to conduct a small scale attack. over the long-term two and a half, three years, we need to worry about a 9/11-style attack by isis. >> here with reaction is former director of the cia ambassador james woolsly. in fairness, i've got to say chairman dempsey changed his view a couple of times now. but i tend to agree with morell. who do you agree with? >> oh, definitely. and with the early dempsey.
7:28 pm
these people are not just terrorists. they're much worse than that. they're thee karatic totalitarian genocidal imperialists. they believe god's on their side. so it's fine for them to bury you alive or crucify you. they think they should control everything about you, what you think, what you say, not just what you do. they believe in total control. and they are building an empire with the caliphate. this is not just some random folks who like to blow things up. >> they have more fire power, they have more money, they have more land. they literally are more brutal than even al qaeda, which is almost hard to believe. they're putting people's heads on a stick on a regular basis, they're saying convert or die. what part of that is the administration not getting? i want to use the words of president obama, he said on january 27th the analogy that we
7:29 pm
use around here, and i think it's accurate that is if a jayvee team puts on a lakers uniform that doesn't make them kobe bryant. so they've got land mass the size of a country like belgium. they got more fire power and money, what part of this is he not getting? >> they're not just putting on a uniform. i think the administration is acting as if absence of evidence is evidence of absence. and that's not right. even if you don't see the terrorists right now, as general dempsey was sort of implying, they may well be working very hard. and you got to pay attention to their ideology. and i think the administration has great difficulty doing that because this is a branch of islam. it's certainly not all of islam. but you got to pay attention to what they say and what they say motivates them and what they want to do. and these are very dangerous people. >> well, i agree with you. let me go back to 2011, cia
7:30 pm
director john brennan. he talks about this caliphate and how he says the idea of an islamic caliphate's absurd, a feckless delusion that's never going to happen. i want to get your reaction to what he said. this is all prior to isis in syria and iraq. >> our strategy is also shaped by a deeper understanding of al qaeda's goals, strategy and tactics that we have gained over the last decade. i'm not talking about al qaeda's grand dlpds iose vision of global domination through a violent islamic caliphate. that vision is absurd and we're not going to organize our counterterrorism policies against a feckless delusion that is never going to happen. we are not going to elevate these thugs and their murderous aspirations into something larger than they are. >> i actually believe radical islamists that say they want a worldwide caliphate. he said that actually prior to what happened in syria. and he said that prior to all these cities being taken over by
7:31 pm
isis in iraq. what's your reaction? don't you think that the threat of a caliphate by the radical islamists is real? >> certainly. and i think those were ill-chosen words. we really have to pay attention to these totalitarian movements. and this one, you know, doesn't matter that they haven't yet achieved the conquest of a large empire. hitler wanted a thousand-year riot covering all of europe and he got a long way there. and he wanted to kill all the jews and he succeeded in killing a very large number. just because someone hasn't yet achieved a big, terrible objective doesn't mean that he's not going to try. >> let me ask you, when you look at all of these groups, i view the term that they seem to me to be like the modern day nazis. that for example they want a modern day holocaust. i'm talking about in iran, islamic jihad, hamas and
7:32 pm
hezbollah, the muslim brotherhood, boko haram, isis, isil, they have a common denominator. they want to wipe israel off the map. they hate the west. so there is a common denominator be it sunni or shia. there is this one thread that runs through what their goal is. >> i think that's right. and i also think that it's important that both the nazis and the communists were totalitarian dictators. the nazis terrible racists also. but they didn't have a religious underpinning to what they're doing. sometimes you can be led as an individual to do the craziest things by people telling you that it's god's will. and that's what the isis is being told. they're being told -- >> so you're saying that they're a bigger threat. in other words, you're taking fanaticism, the stated goal of a
7:33 pm
modern day holocaust and if we ever marry it to weapons of mass destruction, that that ideology, that religious fundamentalism, would push them to probably use it, right? >> i think that's entirely possible. and iran is very, very short distance away from having a nuclear weapon in part because the administration's negotiating stance, i think, is largely ineffective in cutting them off from doing enrichment. >> all right. sir, thank you for being with us. and m coing up next, tonight right here on "hannity". >> is hamas a terrorist organization? yes or no? >> let me ask you a question -- >> no, you don't answer a question with a question. is hamas -- what part of this can't you get through your thick head? >> my epic showdown with a palestinian supporter. stay with us as this special edition of "hannity" continues straight ahead.

welcome back to this special edition of "hannity," the rise of radical islam. soon after israel launched its ground invasion into gaza to destroy hamas terror and tunnel network. i invited american islamic forrum for democracy and usef the jerusalem fund and palestinian center in washington. i tried to get usef to answer a very simple yes or no question. to say heated would be an understatement. let me ask you this, if i fired 1600, 2,000 rockets into your neighborhood, kidnap three children in your neighborhood and i kill them, what do you think the proper proportionate response is? >> well, maybe you should stop the ongoing for decades long military occupation of p palestinian territory. >> take it back to the 1948 partition plan and we can look at the '67 war, the '73 war and
7:40 pm
the hostilities brought to israel. they did give land for peace nine years ago. now i'm asking you a question, if thousands of rockets are fired in your neighborhood, and kids in your neighborhood are kidnapped, what are you going to do? >> sean -- >> what are you going to do? >> sir, i'm going to try to answer your question if you stop badgering me. thank you. if the united states was invaded by a foreign military and besieged and surrounded and the food that was coming into the united states was counted by the calories so that people would be put on a diet as the israelis claim -- >> you just -- let me finish. >> you are justifying -- >> let me finish. >> no. you are making a rationalization. if rockets and kidnapping and murder and you expect the -- you want to blame the victims in this case. >> the only people blaming the victim here is you because there
7:41 pm
are countless civilians -- >> cycle -- usef, we can't continue to explain these things away. for crying out loud it's ramadan and they continue to send rockets out. the fbi by matter of policy will not interact with them because of the fact they will not condemn hamas as a terrorist organization. and still to this day they will not recognize them because of that. so they just like hitting a softball -- >> usef, i have a question -- >> hamas launches rockets on innocence, starts the war, war after war and use it to say it's a bigger narrative, it's about the occupation. meanwhile they have a gender apartheid inside gaza. christians are evacuating because churches are being burned. their doctrine is fascist. palestinians aren't represented by hamas, i don't believe, and yet they allow hamas to drive narrative and set wars. >> i want to ask usef a
