10:00 pm
isis. the pentagon is saying it's vetted 1,200 rebels. they will be sent to facilities in toirk turkey saudi arabia, and qatar. and drivers will be expect higher gasoline prices. there will be four minor injuries. the company says its air quality monitors detected no harmful emissions but experts say any disruption to production is likely to push prices higher. luis gutierrez. thanks for watching. i'm megyn kelly. this is "the kelly file." tonight. >> we cannot kill every terrorist around the world, nor should we try. >> the state department thinks americans are just too dumb to understand the administration's plan to defeat jihadists. >> it might be too new argument for some.
10:01 pm
>> dennis kas niche and former mayor rudy giuliani are here in a "hannity" exclusive. and a jewish journalist harassed right on the streets of paris. he'll be here. he has the video. i love my brother, i love my dad. >> and will the bush legacy help or hurt jeb bush if he runs for president? >> i admire their service to the nation and the difficult decisions that they had to make. but i'm my own man. >> karl rove here tonight to analyze. all of that plus anne coulter, geraldo rivera and bernard mcguirk. don't move. "hannity" starts right here right now. welcome to "hannity." state department spokesperson marie harf faced an onslaught of criticism yesterday after making these comments about isis. >> we cannot win this war by killing them. we cannot kill our way out of this war. we need in the medium and longer term to go after the root causes that leads people to join these
10:02 pm
groups. whether it's lack of opportunity for jobs -- >> last night harf doubled down on the stupidity all while insulting the intelligence of her critics. >> counterterrorism extremism takes on a variety of ways to do that here. part of it is military. but, look, if we look around the world and say longer term we cannot kill every terrorist around the world, nor should we try. look, it might be too nuanced argument for some. like i've seen over the past 24 the commentary -- >> too nuanced. we're too dumb to understand. the state department spokeswoman went out of her way to take a shot at christians, perhaps the strategy to deflect criticism away from the real threat. it's called radical islam. >> this is not just a threat in one place. if you look at the lord's resistance army and joseph -- i don't remember people talking about that as much anymore, but that's a christian militant group. there are a lot of different extremist threats we face. and there are different tools we have to go after each one of
10:03 pm
them. >> and meanwhile earlier today president obama echoed harf's nuanced understanding of the extremist threat that we face in the united states. is what he said. >> we all know there is no one profile of a violent extremist or terrorist. there's no way to predict who will become radicalized. around the world and here in the united states inexcusable acts of violence have been committed against people of different faiths by people of different faiths. >> here we go again. obama's comments come on the same day that we learn that isis is now harvesting organs of the people that they're slaughtering and selling women and children into slavery in order to fund their radical extremist campaign. here to respond former democratic congressman, fox news contributor dennis kassinich. i assume you agree with me that a jobs program is not the answer against radical islamists.
10:04 pm
>> it's important to understand who isis is and what it represents. it represents a throwback to a medieval philosophy, and a depiction of islam which has an apocalyptic view and which is not really ready to reconcile with the 21st century. having said that sean it's very dangerous for the united states to enter into a frontal conflict with isis. because they actually want to draw us in so they can get more recruits and prove the point about why they should be leading the effort against the west and new crusade. >> but they are burning innocent people firing squads killing innocent people, mass graves of innocent people. beheadings -- did you see the beheading video? i saw it. all five minutes, 21 people did you watch that, congressman? >> i watched it.
10:05 pm
and i will tell you this all of what you describe is horrific. but you have to remember that both al qaeda and isis have grown as a result of u.s. interventions. we've got to be really smart -- >> you're blaming -- wait a minute congressman. i can't let that go unchallenged. you're blaming the united states, you're ignoring the embassy bombings in kenya and tanzania? >> of course not. >> the u.s.s. cole, iranian hostage crisis, trade center bombing all happening prior to war in iraq and afghanistan. and 9/11 commission report concluded they were at war with us, we weren't at war with them. we declared war after all of these events happened. they've been at war with us since 1979. and this is the first time that we ever fought back. and you're blaming us. why? why would you blame the united states? >> no. sean, i reject that characterization. and here's what i'm saying in case you didn't understand when i said it the first time. what i'm saying is that the united states has to be very
10:06 pm
careful. we got sucked into iraq, a nation that had nothing to do with 9/11. we destabilized iraq and gave an opening for al qaeda and later isis. >> no, we actually got sucked into war -- that's not true. >> my god, sean, please. >> president obama pulled out when george bush warned if we pull out too early we're going to have a more radical enemy. and low and behold mosul, fallujah tikrit and all these other cities that our men had won were taken over because we didn't provide the intelligence and the training that we should have provided like we did after world war ii. >> sean, you and i honor the service of our men and women. >> absolutely. >> i will tell you something. the whole thing in iraq was based on lies. i'm sorry, you and i disagree on that. same for isis and al qaeda. >> lies -- i got to run. i have one last question. do you really believe a jobs program -- >> oh, no. >> we can't even create jobs for americans. do you think a jobs program -- >> i agree with you on that.
10:07 pm
look i want a jobs program in america. isis has a job they behead people. that's their job. no, we have to focus on jobs in america. and that's what i'm saying about all this, sean. [ overlapping speakers ] >> kill us and not fight back? >> they're not going to kill us. >> they're not killing us? they killed 3,000 americans on 9/11. where were you? >> you know what that is not going to happen again. >> that's not going to happen again. you can assure america that's not going to happen again. and what about the people they beheaded? and what about the people victims of firing squads. and what about the women being sold into slavery? >> sean, what are you advocating? are you advocating we okay president obama's request for authorization of military force? >> i say we -- the way egypt and jordan is responding after killing egyptians and jordanians. i think you can't negotiate and give cars and jobs and homes to people that want to kill you. >> no, listen i agree we got to take a hard line approach. but we've got to be careful about using our power so we
10:08 pm
don't ignite another crusade. >> all right. i appreciate you being with us. mr. mayor you were here -- >> i think i just wrote a book. >> yeah, you were taking notes. i know you were laughing during the introduction about the jobs -- >> first of all, i find dennis, who i like by the way, i find dennis to be terribly ignorant about the history of islamic extremist terrorism. i was first placed on a commission as a young lawyer by president ford when i was associate deputy attorney general to study terrorism in 1975. so i think i know this history really well. and from then on i followed it as number two -- number three person in the justice department, united states attorney prosecuting it, mayor having to defend against it and mayor who was hit the hardest by it of any mayor in the history of our country, right? i think i know what i'm talking about. this thing goes back at least to the 1960s with the origination
10:09 pm
of palestinian authority. remember all the hijackings and sky jackings and the munich olympics? 1972, sean. that's an age ago. mid-1980s. between munich and when they started hitting the embassies in africa over 110 islamic terrorist attacks and killings many of them of americans some of them ordered by arafat some ordered by other people in the movement. then we had the embassy bombings in the late 1990s. then we had the u.s.s. cole and we didn't respond to it. >> first trade center bombing. >> you can read dershowitz book on this best book dershowitz wrote. first four chapters. what we did for 30 years is encourage them to come and kill us. and we would do nothing about it. we created the atmosphere. we reinforced the people that
10:10 pm
did the munich olympics released by the german government. the people did the -- released by the italian government. the european governments were cowardly. they were afraid they were going to be attacked by terrorists. and we created this movement. this movement was alive, well and gigantic when it declared war on us and hit us on september 11th when president bush struck back that is the first time we drove them back. >> and that was the 9/11 commission report's conclusion. they had been at war with us. now we have administration they won't even use the term radical -- >> it is a tragedy and it is extremely dangerous. for two reasons. for military reasons which have been explained by general keane and so many others many, many times. this ideological reasons it's even more dangerous. if reagan will fight the battle of ideas to them we have to explain their ideas. we can't pretend that these ideas don't exist. how are we going to win the battle of ideas --
10:11 pm
>> dennis says they're not going to hit us again. can he say that with certainty? >> wait a second. since 9/11 they've killed us in london they've killed us at ft. hood. they've attempted to kill us on airplanes. we've had the attack in paris. we've had the attack in denmark. we've had at least -- >> coptic christians beheaded. >> coptic christians killed just because they're christians, or the president who can't stand up and say these people were killed just because they were christian. >> three days this week the president is holding a summit okay? and a violent extremist summit where you can't mention radical islam. at the summit is the muslim public affairs council tweeted a picture showing salam he's quoted in "new york times" after 9/11 saying if we're going to look at suspects we should look to the groups that benefit the most from these kinds of incidents. and i think we should put the state of israel on the suspect list.
10:12 pm
why is this man at this event? and why can't -- if it's going to be about extremism, why is radical islamic extremism off the table? >> because this was an absurd conference. should have been on "saturday night live." should have been. would you like to discuss extremist terrorism in the world today? yes. 95% to 99% of the discussion has to be about islamic extremist terrorism. sure there are other small little groups, but the one that's dominating, the one that's chopping heads off, the one that's killing jews because they're jews and christians because they're christians are these islamic extremists. >> and they're saying they needs a jobs program. >> right. and whiend all this -- >> what give them a job as fireman? policeman? >> i don't know, go for a job interview what have you done in the past, i chop people's heads off. this guy could be a butcher i guess.
10:13 pm
they should all be moved into an apartment with miss harf and let her take care of it and hang out with them and see how she likes it. this is totally ridiculous when you listen to her, i swear to god, you think you're listening to a "saturday night live" parody of a person who should be a press secretary. >> all right, mr. mayor, thank you. >> this is dangerous, sean. it isn't funny. >> i agree with you. >> unfortunately they do it in such a way you laugh, but this is becoming extremely dangerous. we are encouraging them to come and hit us. >> thank you for being with us. joining us now u.s. army veteran and a christian says the american government is not doing enough to defeat isis. he joined the forces of the kurdish militia. he's fighting terrorists. he's on the ground undisclosed location in syria, jordan matson is with us. jordan, i read two reports today. one was that isis is harvesting organs as reported to the u.n. by an iraqi diplomat.
10:14 pm
and the second is isis documents showing the selling of christian and yazidi women. for example, if they're between the ages of 1 and 9 that would be equivalent of $160 u.s. age of 20 $146 40 and 50 $42.10. have you heard these things have you seen these things yourself? >> yes, sir. as for the organs i believe that probably would happen. but for prices, it goes on what they think the girls' worth in terms of beauty. i've heard of $1,000 for a yazidi girl by a palestinian man that came to syria. >> what about the actual harvesting of organs? have you heard about that as well? >> i haven't heard of that yet, sir. but i don't get much news out where i'm at. >> yeah. tell us what's going on on the ground there. and, you know here you have the state department suggesting that maybe we need a jobs program. what do you think the reaction of the people that you're fighting every day would think
10:15 pm
of that, hearing that? >> we don't even have the infrastructure for jobs out here. where are you going to go to job when everybody's trying to kill you all the time? we've had games in kobani otherwise it's been stagnant. we could use more support on the ground here especially on the syrian side. as i've said before even iraq has been tied up. u.s. forces aren't even allowed to do their job to the full extent in iraq. so we've had a lot of frustration with it. >> last question tell us what you have seen with your own eyes there in terms of what the terrorists have done. >> i've seen beheaded bodies just tons of families -- displaced refugees. one camp right outside here -- otherwise it's mostly fighting unless they're running or
10:16 pm
engaging us. >> stay safe please. we appreciate what you're doing and thanks for your time. up next on this busy news night on "hannity." a small sample of hate venom directed at a jewish journalist who went undercover on the streets of paris. he's here next to show you that video and an exclusive interview. later, a new report details how foreign donations to the clinton foundation could mean trouble for hillary. anne coulter will weigh in. >> i'm my own man and my views are shaped by my own thinking and my own experiences. >> jeb bush says today he's not his father or brother as he prepares for a possible presidential run. karl rove will weigh-in on the prospects of everybody in 2016 strararararara

israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is urging european jews to leave their home and head to israel. anti-semitism is on the rise. to prove it one jewish journalist filmed himself walking through the streets of paris. the results are shocking. take a look at this.
10:20 pm
>> you palestine, spat at called a jew. shocking. joining me now a journalist you saw in the video, correspondent for news outlet nrg with us. thank you for being with us. so you were called a dog, viva palestine, jew in a derogatory fashion. why did you take on this mission, number one, is it because you knew about the rise of anti-semitism ahead of time? you expected that result? >> so first of all i've been covering jewish affairs for the past four years. almost every day i write about, you know, anti-semitic attacks around europe, specifically in "
10:21 pm
" online. >> all right. i also understand you passed a young child. and the young child said, mommy, what is he doing here? doesn't he know he will be killed? what neighborhood were you in? is this just generally around paris? was this predominantly muslim neighborhoods? >> right. so it was a suburb north of paris, it's very close to paris. and what some people in the american media like to say a no-go zone. so i went there. we had a candid camera and i was there with a security guard because i try not to go to these types of dangerous places without protection. and this neighborhood as you said, yeah, is mainly muslim. and the looks that i got were just you know as you could see
10:22 pm
in the video were very surprised and very like, you know, why is this jew walking in our territory. and kind of one of the senses i came back to israel with was this kid who was with his mother, a muslim family. and, you know, he was very innocent kid just thinking to himself, you know jews don't come to this area. and he sees this guy wearing -- on his head. and then he's like you know, telling his mother they're going to kill . >> by the way, so this was an undercover video. a guy was walking in front of you. the camera was hidden inside a backpack. >> right. i've been called silent walking, it started in new york just this summer where a woman was walking the streets of new york and she got different sexist remarks from people on the street with a hidden camera. so the same idea here walking through new york. i did not answer anybody. i walk silently walk through the streets.
10:23 pm
and unfortunately my religion wasn't respected the way i thought it may be. >> okay. now the important question is the prime minister of israel has welcomed and opened the doors and even put aside money to help jews -- >> a lot of money. >> a lot of money. so they can move to israel. >> yeah. >> do you think -- i mean, just recently the 70th anniversary of auschwitz, correct? >> correct. >> is it that dangerous? do you fear for your life? do you think that it would be wise for jews in europe to leave? >> so, i mean, yes i was afraid. i was afraid for my life. i felt like i was a walking target wearing -- on my head. just a little more than a month ago there was a shooting at a kosher supermarket. they were just there buying their food. and so, i mean, in a way i think that europe has to wake up. >> wake up or should jews not risk it and leave?
10:24 pm
in other words, you know, it's almost unimaginable but it seems like -- >> i know your opinion -- >> other countries. it's not just france. look at madison, wisconsin. i have a videotape of jewish slurs and swastikas painted, it's reported now, up to 25 and 30 homes in madison wisconsin. another case in florida. so why do you think there is this rise of anti-semitism at this time? >> the rise of anti-semitism in europe, it's not a classic and old anti-semitism. it may be here and there a few crazy people that, you know, still believe hitler was i don't know, something special. we're talking about a different type of anti-semitism. you saw a kid that i walked by said viva palestine. okay. we're talking about anti-semitism from muslims who do not see any rights for jews

10:28 pm
rate raising ethical questions as hillary now ramps up her expected bid for the presidency. joining me now author, columnist, anne coulter, between that and orgy island, they've got problems. >> ethical questions with the clintons? shocking. no, her main problem seems to me besides the whole everything about the clintons is that she's not a very likable person. she was the odds on favorite last time. and, oops democrats ran off with a new trophy wife barack obama. i think what is more important for a republican victory is whom the republicans choose. >> who would you like them to choose? >> not jeb bush along with most voters. i hope the wall street crowd doesn't watch your show because, boy, they're going to be wasting a lot of money on jeb bush. >> you don't think he'll win? >> he is polling below donald trump in new hampshire. usually this far out the polls don't mean that much because it's just a matter of name recognition. in fact a few years ago i went through my column where people
10:29 pm
were polling 18 months before the election. and it was all names that were never even in the top ten because what was it? name recognition. i don't think you can argue that jeb bush does not have name recognition. so the fact he's polling, he has higher unfavorables and far more than hillary clinton in new hampshire his unfavorables are about 50% his favorables in the 30s. hillary, again, not a likable person, but -- >> who do you like? >> also the case only 7% of americans and this has been true going back to 2006 when the last bush, thus the name recognition tried to force amnesty on the country. americans keep telling pollsters they don't want amnesty. they voted out eric canter as i wrote in my column this week. what do we have to do to convince politicians we don't want amnesty? make it a host on "the view"? we can't get them to do what they said they were going to do. as i said in my column every one of these guys including mitch mcconnell and all the establishment republicans, even lamar alexander said vote for us
10:30 pm
republicans and we will block obama's executive amnesty. well -- >> a court did temporarily. >> well -- >> i think successfully. >> yes. but i mean most people don't even know. and i'm a little irritated with fox news for this with ten hours of original programming every single day that we haven't heard for two weeks senate democrats have been filibustering -- >> i talked about it. >> okay, well, thank you. i think we could talk about it maybe a tenth as much as isis. if you want to cover muslim atrocities you can do that from 1632 until the end of time 24 hours a day seven days a week. there's always going to be muslim atrocities. whenever the media starts obsessing with isis i think you're hiding something. and you're hiding something on the democrats who themselves when they're running for office say, oh no, of course i don't support obama's executive amnesty. now they're down there filibustering that. do americans know that? >> three separate times -- here's the question -- >> a lot of these, you know
10:31 pm
alleged republican spokesmen or news analysts i guess i'll say, oh, no well, republicans can't do anything, they can't do anything because it will shut down the government. it won't shut down the government. government is fully funded. >> agreed. >> it will a few secretaries won't go to work at the department of homeland security. 90% of the employees there are essential personnel. they can't be let go. there's no risk. so i don't want to hear from these republicans, oh, we can't. we gave you a majority. you said give us a majority we will block executive amnesty. okay. you got it republicans. >> they have two constitutional powers. power of the purse and also advise and consent. president wants a new attorney general, i would use both of those as the leverage that we gave them -- >> and also i mean, the house did pass a good bill. but i think we could use a little more explanation from republicans. look, even if you think we shouldn't be hounding illegal aliens to get them out of the country, i don't think most americans even understand that what obama's amnesty does is give them social security cards give them work permits and give
10:32 pm
every illegal alien $25,000 from the u.s. treasury. did americans sign up for that? and why aren't republicans talking about that? i mean the media is in the tank for amnesty true, but the media's in the tank for global warming, the media was in the tank for you know indicting the officer in ferguson. the media's in the tank for that mattress girl up at columbia. it doesn't work in any of those cases. why? because the public hates the media. so how about republicans get on tv and attack the media and tell them what's really going on with this executive amnesty. >> that's why you're here. thank you. >> you're welcome. >> ann coulter. coming up next tonight on "hannity". >> a president needs to set a strategy to be clear about it, not overcommit or overpromise but always strive to deliver. >> clearly jeb bush sounds like he's running for president. so what's keeping him from making official? karl rove will weigh-in on the entire field. and former adviser david axelrod of obama said the current administration's never had a major scandal. what is he drinking or when the moment's

welcome back to "hannity." so he has not officially announced his candidacy yet, but former florida governor jeb bush sounds like he's running. he gave a speech on foreign policy where he tried to shake off skepticism about the possibility of another bush in the white house. here's what he said. >> just for the record, one more time, i love my brother i love my dad. i actually love my mother as well. i hope that's okay. and i admire their service to the nation and the difficult decisions that they had to make. but i'm my own man. and my views are shaped by my own thinking and my own experiences. >> here now with reaction the architect one and only karl rove. as we look at the 2016 field, i actually think that answers that question very well. because a lot of people -- you know, he has to say he's his own man, right? >> yeah. well, and he is.
10:39 pm
just his brother was different than his father and his father was different from his father who was a united states senator from connecticut. so he will have to prove this though over the course of the campaign. the media will want him to do it one way and he ought to do it the other way. the way the media will want him to do it is by being critical of his father or brother. but he ought to do it by explaining what he would do. >> it's inevitable that he's going to be asked what do you think of your brother's decision on the iraq war. how would you answer that? >> well he's already said that the mistakes were made. he talked about wmd and so forth. but again, he's put most of the emphasis on not trying to be the critic of his brother but instead focusing on the future. and i think that's wise advice. you know, we learn more about people by what they say they want to do and by the values that they exhibit than we do about them being critical of
10:40 pm
things that other people do. >> the two issues that keep coming up -- actually i'll bring up three. immigration, common core and report this week that among donors in private he claims to be a moderate but then publicly says he's more conservative. which of those three are going to be problematic if any for him? >> well, i think common core is an issue that he's going to deal with. he believes in high standards. my sense is he believes that states ought to be in charge -- i know he believes states ought to be in charge of standards. my sense is if you don't like common core, which was developed by bill bennett, and others, then you ought to have high standards. but he bel to have schools within their states that set high standards and that test children to make certain that they're learning what we expect them to learn so we can hold teachers and schools accountable for failure. i know the teacher unions hate to have their kids tested and hate to have standards because
10:41 pm
