and david ignatius is a foreign affairs columnist at the "washington post." we welcome all three of you back to the "newshour". so what we just heard from margaret, whether the russians moving in ukraine or i.s.i.s. moving in syria and iraq or just until recently the middle east, israel and hamas, the world seems to be lurching from one crisis to the other. ambassador edleman, what is the united states going eat to prevent the crises or address them once they're happening? >> some of the crises in iraq or syria potentially could have been avoided earlier, but we are where we are now. my own view is we need a strategy for dealing with the problem of i.s.i.l. and it needs to be a strategy that covers both iraq and syria. i think on iraq, right now we've had effect with airstrikes, with working with kurdish peshmerga, with some of the iraqi security forces largely shiite but mostly in border areas along the kurdistan regional government border and in baghdad, i think we're going to need a broader effort, a broader advisory presence. it takes an army to defeat an

david ignatius has something on repeating our mistakes.nited states has made the same mistake in evaluating fighters from the islamic state that it did in vietnam. under estimating the enemy's will according to james clapper, the director of national intelligence, clapper's comments came in a telephone interview wednesday. that we didn't do was predict the will to fight. in this case we under estimated the isil and overestimated the fighting capability of the iraqi army. i didn't see the collapse of the iraqi security force in the north coming. i didn't see that. it boils down to predicting the will to fight which is an imponderable. that's david ignatius. >> you know, sam stein, maybe one reason why congress got out of town last night. >> the chief component of the president's strategy here is in essence having some of us do the ground war for him, make sure an arab army in some capacity will do the ground work and dirty work for us. that's the biggest question mark because of what we saw in iraq. at the same time absent putting in 30,000

at face value and what the director of national intelligence, general james clapper, told david ignatius, that there was a failure, they didn't anticipate how strong isis would be and how weak the iraqi army would be, one might ask the argument, why does clapper still have a job? >> any intelligence official is always skating on thin ice because of the nature of those jobs. obviously a decision for the president. but i think general clapper who's a previous head of the national security agency as well as being the current director of national intelligence brings an enormous amount of experience to the job. my guess is the president does not want to simply let that go at a critical moment like this. >> a syrian isis fighter told cnn that the coalition air strikes so far in serious are not working, they will not stop isis from advancing. do you think that he's grandstanding? what are you hearing from the military community about how effective the strikes in syria have been so far? >> i think they're starting to bite. any kind of campaign like this where you're really going after the resour

we couldn't have known what general clapper in his mea culpa to the "the washington post" david ignatiusssentially his answer amounted to was when we should have known and we didn't. that's exactly what i was driving with at secretary kerry. rare, bill, are the occasions when you have a job like mine, where you can wallow in triumph fallism. state department that propriety virtually propels us to linger over them just a bit. not only do you have general clapper having secretary kerry bring himself to acknowledge in my interview with him. remind you of recent exchanges with jen socky with whom i have a great collegial relationship. you will remember these exchanges because as a result of them a baseless charge of sexism was mounted against from you these very precincts. i spent several days trying to ask jen socky whether we are in fact at war with isis. queries which prompted her to acould you see me of playing word games and twisting president obama's words. within 72 hours, secretary kerry himself could be. one presumes that the senior officials at the pentagon, the state department, a

clapper, the director of national intelligence did go that far this week when he sat down with david ignatiusintelligence failure. i can put it on the board what he said. this is a quote to "the washington post." we underestimated isil and overestimated the fighting capability of the iraqi army. so who has it right? director clapper or secretary k kerry? >> the quote you put up speak directly to the challenge when you're talking intelligence collection something i used to do at my former job at the cia. when you look at the strength of a fighting force, you are constantly re-evaluating that. i think people did not expect the iraqi army to melt away in the way that it did. i think isil was probably surprised by that. we did not expect them to disintegrate in places like we saw. >> let's talk about that. i just spoke about this in my last segment that general keane, respected man, former vice chief of staff of the army, this is part of our problem over there not sending in combat troops, boots on the ground. that's a we can we're trying to play with this iraqi army and says if we don't ultimate

it's the dni, director of national intelligence james clapper who in an interview with david ignatiushington post" said last week, yep, we underestimated isil and overestimated the strength of the troops in iraq. >> well, i'm sure there was some underestimation of it. clearly if they were caught by surprise. but look, the underestimation happened a long time before they took over fallujah. and it happened a long time before they took over mosul. >> is he covering for the president? because we all remember james clapper with the not wittingly and there's a question about whether his own job is on the line here. >> yeah, well, certainly looked like the president threw him under the bus. it's not just james clapper, it's the entire intelligence community. these are the people working day and night trying to keep us safe. >> some speaking to catherine herridge saying a different story. >> he stirred up the hornet's nest because those are going to start leaking now and telling people what they told him. what it really comes down to is, megyn, he didn't want to listen. he set a goal as pres

david ignatius, your colleague, shot me down. >> he's been the chief skeptic of the white house. >> absolutelying about destroying isis. you know, the u.s. has spent a lot of time and effort trying to destroy al qaeda. these groups -- i think that's the wrong term. i think what we need to -- the administration, countries in the acrab world need to think about is this an opportunity to take another look at how you end the syrian conflict. because you can't really destroy groups like that, but you can try to take another look at how you end the syrian conflict. and i don't see anything apparent in the president's strategy at this moment about how that could be the end game. because the way you roll back isis or the islamic state or isil, as the president calls them, is first i think by addressing the syrian conflict. which is how this started. >> want to foe what you make of this. officials in austria are concerned that two teenage girls who fled it is country to join isis are now recruiting other young people to do the same thing. officials say that the 15-year-old and 16-year-old vanished from
