but when you listen to the admiral kirby it sounds like it's working. >> well, it's terrifying what's going on with all of this climate change, seizing control of northern iraq, i think we should send bill ny the science guy. by joke here their obsession with other issues have allowed this to happen. however, what's going on in this area isn't necessarily bad. the fact is you can only step on roaches when you can see them. and the strategy is to create a place for them to go. and then you follow a simple equation in which you kill more of them than actually enlist. for every new recruit, you know, we should try to kill four. i mean, it's all about enticing them. we should open a flag company. and then whoever buys an isis flag you follow them home and kill everybody. >> you know what i heard today ang? i heard president obama today call out the shootings in north carolina and the three muslim students killed. he said no one should be targeted for their faith. very important targeted. it was just a day ago he said the shooting, the terrorist attack in the jewish deli in paris was a ran

admiral kirby, did the attackers at any time breach the base security? >> well it looks like they at least got to the outer base limits. we're still looking at this. and it's hard to say, you know whether they breached the perimeter or not but they got, you know to the perimeter level. at the very least and they were immediately engaged and important to note by iraqi security forces right away. >> now, keeping in mind that they control this town just a few miles down the road al baghdadi from the base i imagine the threat to the base is still ongoing. >> well we have been saying that for a long time jim, as you know. we put trainers in al assad, we did that knowing that al anbar province is contested and took a while to get advisers set and established on the base because there were some force protection measures to make sure were in place so we readily admit that it's a contested region sill continues to want to pose a threat here. this is a huge sprawling base. roughly the size of boulder, colorado. i mean, it is not just a small outpost somewhere. the

why is kirby who has such a great background doing this white house dance? >> he doesn't have a choice, to tell you the truth, judge. he's a spokesperson for bad policy, and he is defending what is now the indefensible. i mean, the facts are this. the united states government in the parts of the u.s. treasury has declared the taliban a terrorist organization, and they put them on the specially designated global terrorist list. the state department also has a list. why we have two lists doesn't make a lot of sense. but the fact is we do. some are on both lists, and some countries are only on one list. but the fact is the u.s. government has declared the taliban a terrorist, and we have a white house spokesperson, a state department spokesperson, and a pentagon spokesperson saying that they're not. it makes no sense. >> it makes no sense at all. but even this deal now that we find out the one guy is looking to return to terror, five for one, why five for one? >> well, i'm not hung up on the number. america never could be greater to tell you the truth. here's w

earlier we heard admiral kirby talking about oil revenue no longer the lead source of dollars and in your book isis inside the army of terror you say we've crushed 16 of 20 of their oil refineries and they've lost 90% of the oil-driven revenue and nine of 11 weapon warehouses in iraq destroyed, 30 isis leaders killed by american airstrikes and yet is isis losing? no. and we had secretary gates talk about that on "meet the press." here a little bit of him talking about that. >> is it fair to say we are not winning this battle against isis right now? >> i think that is correct. i think we've made some steps -- some successful steps to contain it but we're a long way, in my view, from being in a position to roll them back or push them out of iraq. so i think the president has set an ambitious and under current circumstances unrealistic goal when he talks about our in tent being to destroy isis with the means that he has approved so far, i think that is an unattainable objective. >> so when you talk about the many successes we have had, what do you mean we're not winning? >> people think

we're back with rear admiral john kirby, the pentagon press secretary.seen that number 20,000 foreign forces volunteers, if you will have joined isis in iraq and syria, beyond the syrians and the iraqis who have joined isis. that number accurate? >> we don't have any reason to doubt it. i think the range we've seen is somewhere around 20,000. that's actually remaining sort of consistent over the last couple of months. but this is one of the real threats about this group, the foreign fighters. these are folks that come in with other passports, visas, and then perhaps can export some of this terror back to their home countries which is another reason why we have to take the threat so seriously. >> in addition to the 20,000 foreign fighters, how many local fighters do you estimate that isis has? >> it varies a lot wolf. it's hard to pin it down on any -- with any specificity on any given day. our estimates are somewhere between 20,000 and 30,000 total people have joined isil. now, it varies every day. they get some people that come and fight and then leave.
