7:01 pm
your call, over. and the father of american sniper chris kyle is here with an exclusive interview you don't want to miss. >> you never get over it. you learn to live with it. >> "hannity" starts right here, right now. welcome to "hannity". this is a fox news alert. disturbing news out of washington. united states central command's twitter and youtube accounts were hacked earlier today by isis cyber terrorists. standing by in washington with all the news for today and what it means for national security is fox's own jennifer griffin. jennifer. >> sean, the cyber hack attack hit the centcom twitter account and youtube page at just about the same time the president was making remarks about cyber security. the official centcom twitter account said i love isis, and had photos as though they'd been taken from web cameras inside military bases. it took about 40 minutes to halt
7:02 pm
the attack. one of the tweets said isis is already here we are in your pcs in each military base. a senior defense official issued the following statement "we can confirm that the u.s. central command twitter and youtube accounts were compromised earlier today. we are taking appropriate measures to address the matter. i have no further information to provide at this time." the official centcom youtube site began playing isis propaganda videos with title such as oh soldier go true with forth -- u.s. army commanders and the top leadership of the u.s. military including personal e-mails and phone numbers. some of those numbers seemed outdated. chairman of the joint chiefs general martin dempsey has this warning about cyber threats in an interview with chris wallace on fox news sunday. >> what have you learned about cyber attacks through the north korea attack on sony pictures.
7:03 pm
>> cyber can be incredibly destructive. it can be disruptive and it can destroy. in every domain, chris we generally enjoy a significant military advantage. but we have peer competitors in cyber. >> the twitter and youtube accounts have now been suspended. and u.s. defense officials say that their initial assessment is that no classified information was breached. sean. >> jennifer, thank you. also breaking news out of france tonight as police announce they're searching for six members of a terror cell standing by in washington with more on this is fox's own catherine herridge. catherine. >> sean, the associated press is reporting tonight that as many as a half dozen suspects are at large in paris including a man reportedly seen driving the car registered to the widow of one of the gunmen. new video from the airport in istanbul, turkey, shows the widow is out of reach and likely already in syria. the surveillance tape shows hayat boumeddiene clearing
7:04 pm
security and then the day after the attack. in the last 48 hours three new isis videos calling for attacks on western europe canada and the u.s. including this one from her partner aum deen coulibaly. he pledges allegiance to isis. a connection the white house tried to minimize. >> i know there's a video that's emerged today that we're still reviewing here in which one of the terrorists indicate some sympathy and support from isil. >> today, homeland security releasing this statement that they are increasing security at federal buildings and screening on passenger jets. "we have no specific credible intelligence of an attack of the kind in paris last week being planned by terrorist organizations in this country, but the reasons for these measures should be self-evident to the public." meantime a yemeni official not allow today speak on the record revealed to fox news is highly
7:05 pm
34-year-old said kouachi met one-on-one with the american cleric anwar al-awlaki who was a talent spotter for al qaeda in yemen. >> this is the first significant foreign fighter case that we've seen where he had traveled to yemen and back, trained under awlaki. one of the brothers funneled recruits into iraq. >> the yemeni official believes al qaeda in yemen provided training and left to the brothers best judgment. in other words they had a standing order to launch the attack, sean. >> thank you catherine. it was a bad news day and embarrassing one for the white house. they had to answer why no one from the united states was visible at the french rally that took place this weekend. there were 40-plus leaders seen locked arm in arm.
7:06 pm
ed henry, i'm holding a copy of the new york daily news and you let the world down and it has obama, biden, kerry and eric holder. it was a bad day for them. >> sean, fascinating because eric holder there at the end he was in paris yesterday but was having meetings that were important on counterterrorism but somehow had to get back to washington by sunday afternoon according to his staff. so after taping four different sunday talk shows back here in the u.s. eric holder got on a plane and came back, skipped the rally. that's why you see some of that criticism from newspapers like the daily news that are normally pretty friendly to the president. today it also drew a rare acknowledgment from josh earnest, the white house spokesman, that they probably made a mistake should have sent someone more high profile than the u.s. ambassador to france who was there. interesting because i pressed josh earnest on the fact that other world leaders like israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu, angela merkel, they
7:07 pm
were there despite security concerns. what was the president doing? >> i guess i prepared for a lot of questions today but i did not prepare for what was the president actually doing. >> there was no issue -- security was already in place. how could he not attend? >> i'm not aware of the details of the attorney general's schedule for yesterday. what i'm telling you is yes, we believe somebody with a higher profile should have been asked to attend. >> now i also pressed josh earnest on this summit the president announced they are going to have here at the white house next month. they're saying it's a summit to combat violent extremism. i pressed him on why they're not calling it islamic extremism. listen. >> it's not just -- it's not just islamic violent extremism that we want to counter. there are other forms -- >> paris australia canada, isn't the thread through them that it's islamic extremism. >> certainly the examples you cite are examples of vinls who have cited islam as carried out
7:08 pm
acts of violence. >> now, as for that hack of u.s. central command that jennifer griffin was reporting on josh earnest said they're concerned about it but they don't have a lot of nfrgs. they're still digging into it. he kind of downplayed it saying it was just a twitter account, youtube channel saying it was not a hack of the u.s. central command's entire systems. but obviously even just this and some of the images that jennifer was reporting on military families potentially being expoed e posed, this is a series issue, sean. >> one follow-up if i may, isn't this is the same administration that sent three white house representatives to the funeral of michael brown a guy they knew robbed a convenience store, intimidated a clerk, charged a cop and fought for his gun. did anyone bring that up today? >> no. it was not brought up. the optics are interesting because you mentioned michael brown's funeral three administration officials were sent to that this past summer. obviously it was a tragedy. they wanted to express sorrow. but three officials whereas
7:09 pm
you'll remember the administration also got heat for not sending representatives from the administration to margaret thatcher's funeral. so the optics bottom line has been very difficult for this administration on a range of issues. let's not forget the president in martha's vineyard and went golfing after the beheading of that american journalist just a short time after making a statement. last week the president in phoenix had this image of his motorcade driving right past that v.a. hospital where veterans had died waiting for care. the optics for this administration have been pretty brutal in recent months. >> wow thanks. ed henry at the white house. prior to the admission, secretary of state john kerry dismissed it, he says it's quibbling. >> the relationship with france is not about one day or one particular moment. we have offered from the first moment our intel, our law enforcement and all of our efforts. and i really this, you know
7:10 pm
this is sort of quibbling a little bit. >> here now is war stories host our friend lieutenant colonel oliver north is back with us. i go back to this you let the world down with pictures of biden, obama kerry and holder. i can't believe that the king of jordan and his wife were there and mahmoud abbas and angela merkel and prime minister netanyahu and david cameron -- >> they weren't just m.i.a. they were awol. it was only for world leaders. i said that last night and obviously i've gotten a lot of negative comments from our friends on the left. but the fact is we're not doing what we need to do to prevent something similar happening here. remember, you mentioned it and so did jennifer general dempsey was on with chris wallace this weekend. and he talked about playing away games. well, it's a no-brainer we want to fight our enemies overseas so
7:11 pm
we don't have to fight them here. he also talked about the suite of capabilities we've got, intelligence, more partners and direct action. but the united states has no human intelligence because this administration has decided to kill suspect terrorists including american citizens with hell fire missiles instead of capturing and interrogating. as for partners, the best partners we've got in the region are israel and second best el sisi in egypt. and yet we threatened both from this administration. it's crazy. >> the 9/11 commission report one thing i really agreed with is they were at war with us. series of events leading up to 9/11 of 2001 we weren't at war with them. the president in fact declared france is at war with radical islam. but here's eric holder's position on the sunday talk shows. >> i certainly think that we are at war with those who would commit terrorist attacks and who
7:12 pm
would corrupt the islamic faith in the way that they do to try to justify their terrorist actions. i would say we are at war with the terrorists who commit these heinous acts and who use islam. they use a corrupted version of islam to justify their actions. >> why can't they say islamic terrorists? why? >> because it doesn't fit the narrative of a president who's going to stand with islam who's going to stand with the prophet. look, if radical islam declared war on the united states and west in 1993. but at the state department, the cia, the white house, d.o.d. they can't even say the words radical and islam next to each other. if you want to win, you've got to know your enemy. that was written over 2,000 years ago. >> yeah. >> and to win and protect this homeland, we've got to reinvigorate the joint terrorism task force and encourage intelligence units like ray kelly created right there where you are in new york city that's been abandoned by de blasio and
7:13 pm
bratton to keep tabs on terrorist jihadis and sleeper cells like the islamic cell that targeted my family and kids way back in the '80s. >> colonel oliver north appreciate it. remember, workplace violence is the official explanation for what happened at ft. hood. and to join us what the centcom hacking means for us. heritage foreign and national security policy director steve bucci with us. gary, let me start with you. i talked to a cyber expert a computer expert today. and he says we are 15 years behind even the radical jihadists. what does that mean for our security if they can attack us like this? >> fourteen years ago right after 9/11 we had dick clark in the white house, which shifted over from the counterterrorism portfolio to the cyber portfolio. we knew this was a problem. we have not made the progress we should have in this
7:14 pm
administration is awol on this as well. i mean, this is disgraceful that they were able to go in hack these, pull the families' names out, do the stuff that they've done. we need to look -- and actually dick clark wrote a book recently called "cyber war" where he talks about the fact we need to defend the spinal cord of our internet system in the united states and it just hasn't been done. >> steve, let me ask you. i mean, if they can hack into centcom, what does that mean for our electric grid? what does that mean for the way business is run in this country? it would seem to me if they can breakthrough that they can pretty much break into everything maybe shut us down. is that a danger we have to start thinking about? >> we need to have better security, sean. that was clear on sony. it's clear on a number of things. breaking into centcom's twitter and youtube accounts are not the case study you want to hang this on. centcom doesn't defend its twitter account, doesn't defend its youtube account. they don't have any more security than your facebook or
7:15 pm
your youtube. >> well isn't there something wrong with that? >> no, it's a commercial account. maybe they shouldn't be on those social media accounts. >> you think? maybe they ought to be protecting themselves considering it's national security. we're talking about 20 different countries in asia and the middle east that centcom has control over. >> and the secure networks that centcom runs are protected. they're not perfect. they are at risk. and we need to protect them more effectively than we do. but the twitter one is not the big problem here. it's a bigger problem than that. >> thanks guys. appreciate it. coming up next tonight on a busy news night on "hannity," straight ahead. >> we promoted multiculturalism, we have promoted division within our societies. we have said to large numbers of people you can come here from any part of the world oh and by the way, please don't bother to learn our language don't integrate in any way at all. >> so is multiculturalism to
7:16 pm
blame? that's coming up next. and fox & friends first co-host ainsley earhart is here to explain what does it all mean. impact wool exports from new zealand, textile production in spain, and the use of medical technology in the u.s.? at t. rowe price we understand the connections of a complex, global economy. it's just one reason over 70% of our mutual funds beat their 10-year lipper average. t. rowe price. invest with confidence. request a prospectus or summary prospectus with investment information, risks, fees and expenses to read and consider carefully before investing. no chest-beating monologues about engine size, horsepower, or performance. no anthemic soundtracks to stir the soul. just a ram heavy duty that can carry more weight
7:18 pm
welcome back to "hannity." so in the aftermath of friday easter ris attack at a kosher supermarket in paris continued the threat, thousands of military police and personnel were dispatch today secure synagogues in jewish schools all around the country. ainsley earhart is live to report on the rise of -- didn't want prime minister netanyahu to come and walked out when he
7:19 pm
started speaking. >> yeah, you could feel the tension there. last summer the fighting sparked a wave of retaliation against jews in france. synagogues were attacked jewish owned shops were vandalized. and jewish people themselves were targeted. here's how reporter kathrine field described it on "hannity" in july. >> dreadful demonstrations in the suburb of paris and that did turn violent and there were some jews that were attacked. that did worry people. and that was what led to the french foreign minister just over the weekend going on radio here in france and saying yes, jewish people are scared they are worried. >> france has the world's third largest jewish population behind israel and behind the united states with half a million. but that number pales in comparison to the more than 5 million muslims in that country and the rise of anti-semitism has jewish people living in fear of further attack. concern that anti-semitism will expand further jews are now
7:20 pm
fleeing france in droves with 7,000 leaving for israel back in 2014 and then 10,000 more expected to follow them to israel in 2015. on monday the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu visited the kosher market in paris which was attacked on friday. >> translator: a direct line leads from the attacks carried out by islamic extremists around the world to the attacks that took place here at a kosher supermarket in the heart of paris. >> sean, netanyahu joined other israeli leaders in telling jews in france that israel is their home and they're always welcome there. >> ainsley, thank you so much for that report. one place nonmuslims are reportedly not allowed to enter, they're called these no-go zones. and fox's own greg palkot is in paris to explain tonight. greg. >> sean, the terrible events of the past week have gotten a lot of people looking at how muslims fit or do not fit into french society. those involved in the terror
7:21 pm
attacks came from neighborhoods in the vicinity of so-called no-go areas. in french they have a very title of zones of urban sensitivity. and since the '90s there have been something like 750 nationwide. most of these are in the tough housing projects which often see a lot of riots surrounding paris and other cities in france, crimes, drug use and unemployment is high in these areas. a large number of muslims there are 6 million muslims in france. they're called no-go zones because authorities at the very least are reluctant to enter them. i had one firsthand experience with them. i was doing a ridealong at night for a tv report with french police in a very bad ghetto outside of paris. we turned one corner, the police in the car saw a group of young men at the other end of the street, they stopped, they backed up and they road off. i asked the commanding officer why.
7:22 pm
he said he couldn't. i reminded him that he was a french police officer on french soil and he was saying it was not possible to go forward. he acknowledged that difficult reality. that was a few years ago. and discussions over the last couple days i am told those kinds of conditions remain basically the same, sometimes worse. analysts are saying unless these no-go zones are dealt with and maybe just as importantly the underlying causes creating them there's going to be more problems here. sean. >> unbelievable. greg, thank you. my next guest says multiculturalism is in fact to blame for the tragic events last week in france. here now to explain is the uk independence party leader nigel farag with us. it's not just france. listen to greg's report. they have no-go zone police are not allowed. non-muslims aren't allowed. why would france or any other country allow muslims that have come into the country to
7:23 pm
basically take over portions of the country? that is madness to me. >> yeah, it isn't just france. it's happening right across europe. we've got no-go zones in most of the french cities. we've been turning a blind eye to preachers of hate that have been coming here from the middle east and saying things which the rest of us would be arrested in parts of northern england. we've seen a sexual grooming scandal of underage girls committed by muslim men in the majority. and for all of these things we're seeing the law not being applied equally. we're seeing the police forces not actually doing their job because we've suffered from moral cowardess. we have allowed big ghettos to develop. and when it comes to confronting tough issues, we run a mile. that's why we're in the mess that we're in. we've been led very badly. >> let's talk about the specific countries. so of the 750 so-called no-go
7:24 pm
zones in france and sharia courts on top of it. what other countries have allowed muslims that have come into their country to separate and create this independent state and sharia courts? what other countries? >> let me give you an example. in the united kingdom there have been tens of thousands of female genital mutilations that have been carried out. despite that there's not yet been a single prosecution for anybody for carrying out fgm. we even a few years ago had some quite clear examples where the immigration services were actually allowing women to come into britain from pakistan and elsewhere to join polygamist marriages, something that's against our law. so wherever you look, wherever you look you see this blind eye being turned. and you see the growth of ghettos where the police and all the normal agents of the law have withdrawn. and that is where sharia law has come in. it got so bad in britain that -- the leader of our church
7:25 pm
actually said we should accept sharia law. >> so you have tens of thousands of young women that have been victims of genital mutilation and great britain allows what the sharia courts to take care and they deal with their own issues? in other words why would great britain, france, belgium or any other country, the netherlands, why would they allow people to come to the country, not assimilate separate, take their land aus tensively and then risk being at war with them when you grew up under sharia those values directly contradict the values in western countries. why would anybody allow that? >> i agree with your sentiments entirely. but we have a political class that is leading countries in europe hopelessly out of touch with the real world. >> is that going to change? >> to show everybody how nice they are. well, it needs to change. but do you know something i gave a speech here today in the european parliament with the leaders of all the big european parties. and i said this, i said for us to improve things in the future,
7:26 pm
first we have to atone and recognize the mistakes of the past. and i was met with a wall of silence. so now they just don't get it. >> unbelievable. nigel, thank you for being with us. appreciate it. coming up next right here tonight on "hannity". >> i'm announcing an ambitious new plan to bring down the cost of community college tuition in america. i want to bring it down to zero. >> wow. free college. do you know what that means? more money out of your wallet. ann coulter will weigh in coming up next. also later, is he in is he out? we'll ask senator marco rubio if he's running for president in 2016. and we'll also get his thoughts on paris over the weekend and much more straight ahead.

7:29 pm
dollars. this time free college free, free, free. everything's free. >> i'm announcing an ambitious new plan to bring down the cost of community college tuition in america. i want to bring it down to zero. america's college promise will make two years of community college free to responsible students who are willing to work for it. now, i want to underscore that last clause everybody who's working hard for it. there are no free rides in america. you would have to earn sglit here with reaction the always outspoken author columnist -- first of all, government schools have failed. grade schools have failed. junior highs have failed. high schools have failed. now we're going to send them to college and they'll still be dumb. >> i know. brushing under the rug the failure of all of the grade schools. >> won't teach them to read in
7:30 pm
college now? >> i think what obama's doing now is coming up with the most absurd proposals to throw at the republican congress so he can accuse them of being negative and reject all of thiz great ideas. but this is a fantastic opportunity for republicans. i'm really glad he brought it up. i've been insisting for years what republicans need to do is have those tobacco company style hearings where they bring in the presidents of colleges and have them explain why they're making $2 million a year and why it is college tuition has gone up ten times in the last 20 years where nothing that has gone up ten times. the education industry is an industry like any other. it is like the tobacco industry, it is like the energy industry. but this is the only one where the government is promoting a bubble. people are taking out loans for a quarter of a million dollars that they can't possibly pay pack. it is being hawked by the government the same way the banks were hawking the home loans. don't worry, yes, it seems like a lot of money but it's an
7:31 pm
investment in the future. >> nothing st free an. >> but it's worse than that. people are wasting money and they're wasting time. in fact, you now have students suing some of their colleges. i think the colleges should also republicans should -- because they're promised you need a college degree. this is going to set you for the future. then they can't get a job. they just wasted four years. welders can make $150,000 a year. a trained electrician will make more. and you get a four-year start and you're not $100,000 in debt. there's an outrage in what's happening and it's win, win, win for republicans. you get to reduce the salaries of an industry that does nothing but hate republicans and brainwash students hate republicans, the entire academic world. shows liberals to be utter hypocrites and the middle class say thank you -- >> isn't a good thing if they run on the let's stop robbing our kids platform? >> yes. and stop robbing the middle class with this scam of a college education. a mckenzie study showed about
7:32 pm
50% of kids with four-year college degrees are not in a job that requires a four-year college degree. and if you major in something like education or gender studies, the only difference between before going to college and getting out is you're dumber after leaving. >> let's talk more about what's going on tonight with the rally in paris and this unity -- you let the world down. i always expect america to lead. and kind of embarrassing, it's humiliate humiliating. we're not leading. we didn't even show up. >> i don't think it probably would have helped. i would say if obama didn't go he didn't go -- the anti-immigration party over there, they were excluded from this rally. the one thing that would do anything, i mean, the french, they're crazy. they love running into the street and -- >> john kerry loves france. >> what is the next step here? can you think beyond running on to the street with a sign
7:33 pm
parisians? we'll demonstrate and keep bringing in third worlders who are going to attack our people. one thing i do find a little strange about this obviously it was a very horrible thing. but this is getting so much more attention than for example even i think the boston marathon, even more than ft. hood. >> i think it's cumulative now. >> i'm surprised it happened to journalists. >> that's a good point. i didn't think about it. coulter, good to see you. coming up they say third time's a charm new reports that former governor mitt romney is contemplating a run for president again. plus, paul ryan has made a decision. we'll tell you what it is. and we'll find out if senator marco rubio is going to throw his hat in the ring. he joins me next.

considering running again in 2016. also breaking today, congressman paul ryan said he will not be throwing his hat in the ring for 2016. however, my next guest is looking, well, awfully presidential these days with the release of a brand new book out today "american dreams: restoring economic opportunity for everyone." senator marco rubio thank you for being here. where are you in the process? you're thinking about? >> yeah. the impact what impact will it have on your family. we've talked about that. the second is where is the best place for me to achieve this agenda restoring the american dream that i write about in the book? is it in the senate or at this stage in my life running for president? so that's the decision only i can make that one. only i can answer that question. >> they can't say -- your mom was a maid, your dad was a bartender. >> yeah. >> they were able to flee castro's cuba. you didn't grow up with a silver spoon in your mouth. >> no, my parents -- well, they came before castro in 1956 to

get away from what was coming. >> and then of course a lot of our family came after that including my grandfather. the point is they came to the u.s. with very little formal education. no access to any connections or money and they made it to the middle class. what i want is to continue to be a country where that's possible. it's becoming harder and harder to do that. part because of our taxes and regulation and our national debt has made us globally uncompetitive. we have the higher education cartel that makes it difficult for people to go to school affordabley and the cost of living goes up and things like obamacare make it go up higher. >> you're very close to jeb bush. >> anybody who runs. when you decide that the best place for you to serve your can you want is to run for president of the united states, i think that's a decision you make irrespective of who else might be in the race. >> you actually address the issue of hillary clinton in the
7:41 pm
book, which i think was the only shot i really saw which probably everyone's asked you about. >> sure. >> what is your take on her and the potential of another clinton presidency about spending more money on a broken system. >> yeah. we need to move on. the 20th century is over. the 21st century is here. the future is now. we need to begin to address 21st century problems with 21st century ideas. not only are her big government principles wrong but an era that's come and gone. we need 21st century ideas and solutions. it's time to move forward on some of these things. >> i like you say solutions. i've been kind of nudging, pushing, yelling a little bit even because i want the republicans to have an inspiring vision. what is, if you run for president, you're not going to run for the senate again. you're up in two years. so you make a decision to run for president or senate. >> that's right. >> that's a big commitment. >> that's why we're going to think about very carefully where the best place to serve is. >> what are the priorities? how do we get 50 million americans out of poverty, off
7:42 pm
food stamps 92 million americans back to work? >> we always use the term middle class. but basically what it means is hard working people who can achieve things that make them happy, safe and stable home for their family. generic terms people use that have real meaning in everyday life. what makes it special is millions of people who start from nothing that's your story too, have been able to achieve that. >> my dad was really poor. >> now that's eroding for people. so what we need to be are the people that restore that. and not just restore it but expand it to reach more people than ever before. >> does it bother you like it bothers me that conservatives don't seem to care because they've been labeled by the left? i care about the people because i did all those jobs in restaurants and in construction. >> but i care not only because i come from there i care because i know america can't remain special if those people can't make it. if those people can't achieve the american dream then we become like every other country in the world. every country has rich people. what makes us different is the vibrant working class of americans. we have to make sure they have
7:43 pm
the same chance to achieve. >> last question, immigration put you sideways, what's your? >> bottom line, i saw a problem that needs to be fixed. the only way we can fix it is by first and foremost being able to enforce our immigration laws. people don't want to talk about anything else. >> secure the borders first? >> they're not prepared to talk about anything else until that happens. they just don't trust the federal government to do that. >> we always get the tax increase, never get the spending cut. you'll get the amnesty or some type of path to citizenship -- >> over and over again -- >> senator, good to see you. you can tell -- see my notes? i marked up pretty good. i enjoyed it. senator, thank you for being with us. >> thank you for having me. >> up next tonight here on "hannity." >> don't pick it up. drop it. >> this movie is so good. it's the one everyone's talking about. up next i will interview the

convoy. they're arms aren't swinging. she's carrying something. she's got a grenade. she's got an rpg. >> see the woman and the kid? >> got eyes on this? can you confirm? >> negative. your call. >> all right. that was a clip from "american sniper," an amazing movie about a navy s.e.a.l. named chris kyle. now, he was the most lethal sniper with the most confirmed kills in our country's history. earlier i had the opportunity to sit down with chris's father wayne and talk about the movie more importantly about his son's incredible legacy. wayne, nice to see you. i had the chance to speak with
7:50 pm
you on the phone. thank you for being on the program, sir. >> well, thank you sean. i appreciate it. >> you know the first thing i said to you, i saw the movie "american sniper," i would urgesniper". i urge everyone to see it i knew the story of chris ahead of time. i send my condolences and thoughts. how many american soldiers' lives were saved because of your son, probably incalculable. >> right. and he would like to have known how many lives he saved rather than how many he took. it's an unknowing number. >> it's amazing what i liked about the movie is that it brings a situation, the movie opens up, and i won't give away the plot. your son, and this is a true
7:51 pm
story, there is a muslim woman and a young child the woman takes something out of her clothing hands it to the son. and your son who is way far away has to determine whether or not that is a bomb they're about to use on american soldiers and that was a type of decision, that is what he was asked to do every day. when you talked about things he did, how did you react as a dad showing the situation and dilemmas he had to deal with. how would you react to that? >> well things like that didn't bother me. i knew chris was doing a job. and he volunteered. that is one thing about our military today. it's all voluntary. and he volunteered he wanted to do this. and i knew he was doing something that he loved to do. >> yes. >> and he would put his fellow
7:52 pm
warriors you know ahead of everything else, and save their lives and not worry about the lives he had to take. >> you know wayne i said this to you privately. i'll say publicly. i can't imagine your son had more confirmed kills than any other, you know person in our military. in history. he is a true hero. he saved likely thousands and thousands of fellow soldiers' lives. i can't imagine the pain you and your wife have gone through. he is a true inspiration to me. a real life hero. the movie for me captured that about your son in every way. i am so sorry for your loss. >> thank you sean. i appreciate that. from both myself, and my wife. and -- it has been a struggle. it's kind of bittersweet because we're happy and glad that people
7:53 pm
still are aware of chris and see the man that he was, and still is to us. but yet, it hurts, you know? there is that constant reminder, we have reminders in our house, but when you turn the tv on or go out in public there is that reminder. and that pain will probably never go away. it's not, i had a gentleman tell me just a few days after chris was killed he said i'm here to tell you you never get over it. you learn to live with it. that is what we're trying to struggle with now. we're trying to learn to live with it we have another son and his family that we enjoy being with and take pride in them, as well. >> i can see where your son got
7:54 pm
his strength from from you and his mom. thank you for being with us. your son is a real tribute to what courage and heroism is. thank you for being with us we appreciate your time. >> thank you, sean, i appreciate you. >> thank you, sir. >> when we come back we need your help. our question of the day is next, straight ahead.
