>> by the numbers, a lot of focus on western europe france belgium, high percentage of the population relative to the other countries. chronic, persistent concern for the united states and north america. looking at the numbers that have most of the young men go it's the surrounding arab countries and turkey non-arab and tunisia, stepping the flow in the biggest part. it really must begin with those countries and what they are going to address it. not to say europe doesn't have a problem. france has challenges but the surrounding countries provide most of the numbers. >> are european countries refusing to communicate, failing to communicate with turkey bulgaria, where they enter syria? >> it seems so. taking the three girls from the u.k. it's tough to conceive. what happens from the communication from scotland yard to the turkish authorities. we see again and again the challenges. information sharing is better and better but a long way to go. >> i have to say, if you pass through the airports we are talking about. gatwick, heath row, and look at istanbul. the sheer number of people tha

"retrenched" would be a better word. united states is discovering global trade system is dependent on it. united states doesn't really use the trade system. right now it's about 90% of gdp america's total involvement, which is less than some countries like bolivia and kyrgyzstan. >> germany is something like 38 -- >> 50. >> 50. >> the united states is the the least involved international economy as a percentage of gdp. a lot of that is disappearing. it used to be that 5% of our gdp was imports of energy products. well, because of shale, we've gone from importing about 12 million barrels a day to two, once you figure out north america as a chunk. within two years north america is going to be energy independent.

now as we move over toward europe i do want to mention in western europe very blustery out here.n the english channel have been reported upwards of about 70 kilometers per hour. you still could see gusts into parts of ireland. around 130 kilometers per hour. very windy. there's the threat of? damage out here. but also the threat of tornadoes. i don't expect anything too big, but a small tornado nonetheless could still cause some problems if you are impacted by it. then the attached cold front which was ahead of this actually pushing across the alps. that's going to bring some snowfall there and back toward east into turkey looking at that snow kicking up. rth just north of there, by the way. kiev at 5 but moscow some sunny skies, staying on the chilly side with a high of 4. now as you move toward eastern asia, big issue out here the last several days has been the haze. across much of korea over through western japan now it's actually being reported the yellow sand out here is going to linger the rest of tuesday but by wednesday into thursday we're going to be seeing a change beca

you must be very concerned about what you're seeing today. >> well, it's not just western europe. was an attempt in australia that was prevented -- >> that's right. >> i think it was tuesday. now you have large isis units operating in libya, also operating in egypt, certainly, we've watched things in nigeria unfold and so the recruitment around the world for people to join the war for this is something that will be with us for a long time. this takes us back to the original point. they have to see it defeated. they can't believe it's inevitable that they are going to wipe out other religions and wipe out enlightenment and wipe out other points of view. it is an attempt, frankly, to use terror to use beheadings, to use stoning, to use burning in order to strike enough fear into populations and also to recruit young men and unless that's decisively defeated in this isis battle it's going to continue to have its allure and its pull on young men. >> absolutely. chairman royce, we appreciate your time very much. thank you for coming on to talk about this and hope to talk to you soon th

it's heartbreaking to think that my friend in west africa and western europe are asking. let's get this straight. there are just unarmed people killed on the streets of the united states, and left for dead. and no one is charged for this and to say correct, that is what is happening. that is in every way a continuation of a history of brutality unique to this country. >> what is your relationship to africa and specifically to ghana? >> we went to ghana when we were 15. >> besides the fact that that's where your mum lives, does it feel like what home does feel like. >> we went back and forward between england and the states and nigeria, more often when we were young. when our father came into our life we went every year to ghana. when we first went i thought we'd feel this open armed embrace, like a welcome home prod gal whatever but it wasn't like that. there was no - there was no instantaneous sense of belonging. in fact i felt the same combination of belonging and unbelonging in ghana as i did in england and the states. for a time that was heart-breaking. it occurred to

right now a lot of my time and that of my team is spent looking at people from western europe to travel to iraq to fight for extremist groups. the people from berlin, london stockholm and paris, citizens in the western countries western countries nearly 4,000 have gone since 2012. we know many of them. we found more than 700 of them on facebook, twitter instead -- instagram. we've spoken to nearly 100 of them in the period of several months and we've met face-to-face with many facilitators transporters and on the ground in the border towns from where they go into syria. we know that there isn't one story. there are many of them. many have troubled histories. but some would have had great prospects if they stayed in the european home countries. some were driven by the suffering of the people as they were seeking the thrill and adventure and of course many were committed to ending does he ask about the totalitarian project of the group that calls itself isil. and because the personality, background experiences are so different, you as government should expect the people who may come back

we have self radicalization in western europe and australia and canada, that's all isis related. that's been their big victory here. that's where we are today. >> i do think this the u.s. and coalition responses have been substantial. i checked in with the coalition authority on friday afternoon with respect to the numbers there have been 2300 airstrikes. about 6,000 isis fighters killed, have leadership taken off the battlefield this is just the beginning. this is a long term effort that will go well beyond president obama's administering. we've done this stopping momentum that michael mentioned, begun to push back, taking back territory requires an effective on the ground effort. we don't have that yet we're building that, that is months away. i think it can be done, by the way, through training the iraqi security forces and providing with the support that they need. and shrinking isis, by the way pushing back on their success which is absolutely critical here. another key thing we're going to have to do in addition to the ground effort in iraq is getting the politics right. re
