>> joining me now andy mccarthy, editor to the national review.n who used to put terrorists in jail for a living. your take on that. >> this is what they do. what you see a lot in muslim brotherhood rhetoric is a reference to the prophet mohamed saying that war is deception. they council that looking the infidel in the eye and practicing deception is not only authorized, it's recommended. so this is exactly what happens. you know, they dare you to call them on things knowing that they have created an atmosphere of intimidation where if you do call them on it, you're an islamophobe. you get dragged into court, you get barred from the media, barred from the campus. >> cair is a long standing problem. they have a long history of threatening to sue you, threats, they love that. >> cair is hamas. >> though they deny it. >> they deny a lot of things. >> he has come on the show and said much more reasonable things in the past. >> my understanding is i think the last time i was on with him he explained he's an -- >> nobody knows what that is. >> well, the

the problem is, we talk about the khorasan group, as my colleague, andy mccarthy likes to put it, like it is a real thing. but it isn't a real thing. it is another name nor core al qaeda. the administration wanted to rebrand this group, the khorasan group so they didn't have to run into inconvenient or embarrassing questions about having decimated or destroying core al qaeda. >> very interesting. i had not heard that before. because it is an offshoot of al qaeda. but if you're continuing along with the policy and at least the campaign message from 2012 that al qaeda is on the run and we have completely decimated them, then it is inconvenient, right? >> right. and the khorasan, fun to say it is the cell of al qaeda, but they are decades long members of al qaeda. they were core al qaeda. this is the bell labs of al qaeda. they set up in syria because they add safe haven there. but the administration talks about the group as if it is distinct from al qaeda. and given how this administration so often plays these word games in order to get out from underneath blame or accountability, it doe

if you read andy mccarthy's book "the grand jihad," he traces not only the birth of the predecessors of al qaeda but the two general schools of islamists. one is those who adhere to some form of violent jihad. isis is obviously the most recent and radical version of that. the other is a version that says no, you don't. we foreswear that. you go this route. you get more mosques. you set up current sit. exchange program. you send students into various universities. we do it through other lawful means. and the two are at each other's throats figuratively speaking. so i think freedman's piece was what's going on within a fraction of this side of the debate. >> as he was saying actually, you can broaden this even bigger if you look back at the writings back in the 1950s when the whole movement really got going, it was an effective modernity. what was it doing to the middle east, why were they not catching up and so clearly behind the west. how do they deal with that sense of humiliation and lack of agency that he was feeling and that he came up with all sorts of reasons. but one way that
