i want to bring in steve clemons. eve, you heard cal perry talk about a new front in the war on terror. it is hard to talk about anything in southeast asia and not talk about its impact on india and, in particular case here, you have bangladesh, obviously a neighbor. shares a border with india. now that it has what we believe to be a strong presence of extremist groups whether it al qaeda, whether it be isis in its new form in bangladesh, what does this mean for india? what impact is this going to have on the geopolitical security structure of the subcontinent? >> well, i think -- i think india, and remember bangladesh declared independence, was made independent from pakistan in 1971. so, you know, it's a complicated region. there is some tension between bangladesh and india, but overall good relations. but there are pop-ups here. but there's a lot of illegal movement of people and migration from bangladesh into india and perhaps vice versa. but remember india is a country that has experienced horrific terrorism. most

. >> joining us now is cal perry, and steve clemons and msnbc's in military analyst, it is great to havehere. >> steve, i was going to go out of the limb asking me what a mod learn muslim is, are you taking on that question? [ laughs ] >> well, i want to ask the foreign minister of cutter what the difference was between a good one and a bad one. it was extremely uncomfortable with that question. i was trying to say how when you look at a certain brand muslim faiths, you find a lot of wahabis who are not out there that's not radically -- it was uncomfortable because for them the shades of gray within the religion which you understand much better than i do are complicated. modern muslim is someone able to carry faith along with secular motion how society works. they can understand how there is stake holders in society so when i look at modern muslims that i know they understand stake holders are different from them and they embrace that is the way the world works. >> the notion of gingrich of western civilization is at war, is that an accurate description of what we are seeing unfold? >> n

he's now an msnbc political analyst and is here with my colleague, steve clemons, to explore the landscapen cleveland and beyond. steve: i know you are uncomfortable with all of these republicans around. talking aboutord donald trump and how he has proven everyone wrong, that he has clocked the other challengers, a political punditry class, i would say many of them think he has no chance to win. can you give us your view not necessarily what will unfold but what his path to the presidency looks like. half lies where it has always been and that is out across the heartland, and neighborhoods and communities that have been forgotten for a while by both political parties. uncanny ability to keep it real and you know what? are a conventional people in politics. we like things neatly packaged and we like the crisp, deliberate soundbite that doesn't offend anyone and do anything to unravel the status of. along comes this guy and he flips everybody the bird and starts talking about body parts and using foul language and you know what? guys and gals on their couch think finally, somebody who unders

let's bring in steve clemons, washington editor-at-large, also msnbc contributor. , steve, you're just getting in here and looking at live pictures with us as well. i'll ask william, our director, to put them back up now. thousands and thousands of people have gathered. they have done a march through loan. they are there outside of the houses of parliament, westminster abbey. what is the point? what are they trying to convey? >> i think they are trying to convey the brexit deal hasn't been done. david cameron himself has said that article 50 hasn't been triggered. they are angry. they are poorer after this vote. england looks smaller in the world in the footprint it has and many people who supported brexit didn't know what they were getting into. many of the leaders of brexit are walking away and disappearing from the scene like boris johnson just stepped back after taking britain over the brexit cliff. so people are really frustrated and angry but they are told there might be an opportunity to create enough political pressure that this gets redone. i think you're s

steve clemons, he tore at large, the atlantic and msnbc contributor, he was with us early on in this. now we can see him on camera. steve, your thoughts since our last conversation, especially educated by the things we've learned about this. >> brian, i think that the thing that goes through everyone's mind and i was very moved listening to a monday mohyeldin. how do you deal with the problem in society in a way that doesn't aggravate and make this worse? i think it's a very tough question. if this turns out to be the kind of terror we fear it may be. i think that one of the things we need to begin looking at is what is really a kind of global industrial level radicalization and ask ourselves how it's happening. i was looking at the numbers today of foreign fighters that have gone to fight with isis that have gone into syria and iraq who are now -- many of whom have gone back into their countries and gone there. the scale is truly staggering. we talk about the numbers of people and they sound large. we haven't looked at the fact that so many primarily young men but also some young wom

. >> steve klcle clemons and now see him on our camera. steve, your thoughts of your last conversation educated by the things we have learned about this. >> well, brian, i think the things that go to everyone's mind, i was moved listening about what do you do and how do you begin dealing with the problem that you have in society and in a way that does not aggravate and make this worse. i think it is a very tough question if this turns out to be the kind of terror that we fear it maybe. i think that one of the things that we need to begin looking at is what is really a kind of global industrial level radicalization and ask ourselves how it is happening. i was looking at the numbers today of foreign fighters that have gone to fight with isis that have gone into syria and iraq, who are now many of whom have gone back to their countries and gone there. the scale is staggering. we talk about the numbers of people and they sound large, we have not looked at the fact that how has so many primary young men been alienated or hijacked by an ideology

joining me now, malcolm nance, author of defeating isis and how they fight and what they believe and steve clemons at large for the atlantic. great duo here. and so those numbers on who americans trust more surprised some people because donald trump is doing the tough talk, the strong-man talk. it appears from that poll that hillary clinton is more of a sober take at least for now is winning. >> a lot of what donald trump is saying that he would enact, most people would breed more terrorism or more problem out there. this notion of an eye for an eye that we're going to be head or execute or torture people and use that as a model to deter terrorism is an unhinged one. hillary clinton is saying let's look at what produced jihadist at home and abroad and use social media and create the way people are evolving in this country so they don't go down that track, in addition to layering very, very intensive intelligence. so it is a systems approach hillary is propagating and donald trump is just -- i don't know what he's -- >> one of the ironies that i find about donald trump is that he comes out four squ
