desert storm the deception plan we had that made saddam hussein and the iraqi army focus offshore of kuwait city while we were deep in the desert. only i have seen in the vietnam war when the viet cong surprised during the tet offensive so why would we tip our hand and say we're going to come sometime after the open enrollment of obamacare, maybe right after tax season but definitely before ramadan. we even disclose the size and type and composition of the forces that are going to be used. we have totally lost the key element of surprise in divulging all this information. >> how do we rationalize this? what is the explanation? if you didn't know better you'd think someone was playing for the other team by handing over our game plan on super bowl day. >> well, there are two things. maybe the obama administration is using this as some type of deception for a grander plan or strategy, which i really doubt. so i really believe that this defaults to a political decision by an administration that wants people to believe that it is doing something, when actually they are not doing anything and so they

city. speaking in kuwait monday after meetings with top u.s. officials in the region, newly sworn in defense secretary ashton carter vowed to defeat the islamic state. our discussion this afternoon affirmed the seriousness and the complexity of the threat posed by isil, especially, in an interconnected and networked world. defeat of this group can and will be accomplished. >> earlier this month, isis released a video of the beheading of 21 egyptian coptic christians in libya. amnesty international now has accused egyptian forces of failing to take key precautions before launching retaliatory airstrikes, which killed seven civilians in the libyan city of derna. a new report has raised questions about israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu's effort to thwart a nuclear deal with iran. according to al jazeera, israel's spy agency, the mossad contradicted netanyahu's own dire warnings before the u.n. general assembly about iran's ability to produce a nuclear bomb within one year. the news comes as u.s. officials have reported progress in nuclear

now, he was born in kuwait raised in london till the age of 6, there's a mosque he attended in that citythe father of james foley kind of downplays the revelation of this man's identity. foley was the first victim put on display in a video released last summer before foley's brutal murder. here's what foley's dad said. >> if it were not him, it would be somebody else. in all fairness discovering who he is might be important to some people, but it's certainly not important to me. >> joining me now, former cia counterterrorism official phil mudd. thanks for being here. jihadi john apparently had no social media footprint. even these new four canadian teenagers that are missing, doesn't seem to be any trace of them online either. what do you make of this? >> this is unusual for someone like jihadi john. first, he's involved in trying to recruit people be a face of the organization you would think he'd be out there trying to present himself. but there is something behind the curtain here ana. and that is he may not be on social media, but in the 21st century, think of everything you do durin

kuwait they prevented him from going back. he complained that he felt like he was imprisoned in his own city in london.is alienation grew and at some point in 2012 he departed. but whether you can lay on the british security services the actions that he subsequently took, that's quite a reach. >> how typical is is this story from the reporting that you've been working on? is isis banking on taking advantage of that purported sense of alienation you just heard that man talk about that some muslims seem to feel in the western countries? >> i think alienation is part of it. i think islamic state has an allure that is poorly understood here. we now have 20,000 foreign fighters from 90 different countries around the world. that's an extraordinary phenomenon. clearly the idea that they are creating the caliphate and this group has seized territory, proved itself in ways no other terrorist group previously has done combined with this social media campaign that they are running constantly has made them very, very attractive for young people. >> thank you pete finn. it's not just england we're talking about her
