[bill o'reilly sighs] >>> the word has 1.6 muslims, how many muslims are we talking about?llion people who are ready to strap bombs to their bodies. >> 300 million people ready to strap bombs to their bodies, could that be true? donald trump offers even higher percentages. it's 27%, could be 35% would go to war. the hatred is tremendous. >> fox news anchor chris wallace had just told the gop front-runner the facts. >> according to the best experts in think tanks all around the world, they say at most 100,000 people are fighting for jihadist causes. >> wallace is right, trump is wrong. scholars and experts we spoke to agree. the number of jihadis worldwide is somewhere between 100,000 and 200,000, not hundreds of millions. how did they some up with that number? simple math. they add eed up all the numbersf all the terror networks worldwide. that added up to .01% of muslims around the world. but despite the consensus, few admit. >> why don't you take a look at the pugh poll that came out recently. >> we did take a look and we couldn't find any poll by pugh that bore in relati

a bad muslim woman. and not just here, in the u.s., but across the world. >> hinojosa: you know what? i'm not sure if you've been called a bad muslim woman... >> many times. >> hinojosa: you have, but the fact is that you... in a lot of ways, what you want us to do is you want us to get a broader sense of what's really going on, the conversation of this community. and so you do reveal things that are not talked about a lot, and you do take a position that is not talked about a lot, and you take a lot of criticism because of that. one of the things that has been fascinating for me to watch as you talk about it is this statistic that i learned, which is that 86% of egyptian women say that they have been groped or somehow sexually assaulted just by being out. >> see, that statistic that you mention speaks to the hypocrisy of tying religion to the way a person looks, because it has nothing to do with the way a woman dresses. the fact that every two minutes in the u.s., a rape is reported... and that has noth

the average muslim can't make that judgment. anyone who calls himself a muslim is a muslim. right? they do not particularly care about that. that is the way were resolved -- way we resolve cults. cultism has been weaponized. i went to the terrorist training facility in afghanistan soon after tora bora fell. that is the place where they had videos of them poisoning dogs and sheep. gote were big holes when i there, but there was enough material around and enough stuff to know these people were going next-generation terrorism. they were fully intending to do that. isis went the other way. it was a smaller, faster group. if al qaeda is the cia, isis is the flash mob. why are they in europe and why are we in the united states not feeling the same effect as europe? because so many of their members came from europe. it is not about whether we have good values or not. i came from a full study in france where went to every one of those terrorist attack sites. charlie hebdo, bataclan, brussels. i went up there and i looked at all the sites. as an intelligence practitioner, and i was a terror

everything from bands of muslims to muslims being like uncorked animals. the types of rhetoric and the type of climate that we live in today, and that american muslims are continually surrounded by. and as part of our work at muslim advocates we work on tracking hate crimes against the american muslim population, and since november 2015, we have identified over 100 hate crimes that have happened across the country. now, as much as that is a sharp increase in hate crimes against the community, we have also noticed that almost 50% of those have happened against houses of worship, and that is unique. in the past hate crimes happened between individuals, and now we're seeing houses of worship being attacked. and why is this relevant for students? it's important to understand that the mosque and the islamic centers serve as a community center, safe base for the american muslim population, and this where is they go on weekends, go to celebrate holidays, where they go for evening prayer services. this is really their home away from home. and when we see the islam

then, instead of saying, muslims, they are the muslims, they are just like us. magazinesd me of the you see at the checkout in the supermarket where it is sort of, you know, movie stars -- they are just like us. there is angelina jolie with a baby on her hip and a latte. there was never any opportunity oneself from this like/different shuttle. you are looking into the abyss or a hall of reflecting mirrors, where you want to see muslims looking exactly like the rest of us. down and take a muslim worldview on their own terms, there was not room or space in mainstream longform media. that nevershould say in 17 years of writing about islam was i asked about the koran. journalists,ecular or journalists mostly coverlet -- covering things as secularists, we tend to overlook the scripture that ostensibly started all of this. friend -- this is in 2011 -- who i worked with as a young woman, sheikh mohammed akram nadwi. i met him when i was 24. he was barely older than i was. he was an indian sheikh. he was the rising star of his own madrasa in india. he had been sent to o

be nice tore muslims? donald trump is going to do, right? >> that's what i'm scared about. i can't speak for donald trump, but he's going to do the right thing. he says what he's going to do and he'll do what he says. >> wait... so is he or isn't he going to do all this (bleep) because the stakes are pretty frickin' high for me. i'm beginning to think these republicans just hate muslims. >> no! no, i don't hate anybody -- except... (laughter) -- i really don't hate anybody. >> so you would say you love muslims. >> i do. are you a muslim? >> yes. i love you. , too. (laughter) give me a hug. i'm not going to live here much longer. >> well, we love you, don't worry about it, you're safe. >> can you say goodbye to the 3.3 million muslims who live in america. >> we love you the 3.3 muslims who live in the america and the billion-plus in the world. >> wow. why are you voting for this man? >> i love him. i think he's a great candidate for president, support his policies. >> i didn't understand, republicans were s

anyone who calls himself a muslim is a muslim, right? resolvethe way we cults.o, cultism, as al qaeda and isis have done it, have been truly weaponize. they had weaponize technology. i went to the terrorist training facility in afghanistan soon after tora bora. they had videos of them poisoning dogs, poisoning sheep. now, there were big, honking holes when i got there, but there was enough material around there to know that these people were going next generation terrorism. they were fully intending to do that. isis went the other way. isis was a smaller faction of a larger group. isal qaeda is the cia, isis a flash mob that has been called together through a text message. that is the best way to think about them. what are they in europe and what are we in the united states, not feeling the same effects of europe? of the members came from europe. it is not about whether they have good values or not. i came from a full study in france where went to everyone of those terrorist attack stories. and then i went up to brussels. i was invited by the king of brussels. t

but i think we need to stop talking about good muslim/bad muslim. there is a continuum here. we can easily find very conservative scholars of islam, very conservatives muslims that we would disagree with but who would not be people who would commit violence. we have to see things in a broader perspective and a very more new manner. and working with local governments i think we need to be aware there are deeper and broader structural political questions that always need to be addressed like for example the question of the grievances from the local coastal muslim population in kenya. you have to be willing to address and press local governments to deal with those more deeper questions. the secretary questioned one need more fine-grained knowledge about what was going on. yes, we do. we definitely need more fine-grained knowledge. these are incredibly complicated issues and i think what we also need is more knowledge about and a continuous analyst of the approaches and what works and what doesn't work. i think listening to the new strategy that has been launched i think this is

there was no ban on muslims.ust read there, senator mccain is misrepresenting it. but let's be clear. yet again. captain kahn was a hero. absolutely no question about it. we're all familiar with senator mccain's record. his military heroism, et cetera. i would add in a few days, somewhere this month, he is in a very tight race for reelection. so you know, he is also a politician. >> miguel, part of this statement from senator mccain, which was interesting, senator mccain didn't just take issue with donald trump's proposals on immigration and muslims, senator mccain seemed to take issue with what donald trump said to the kahn family and reading between the lines, it seems he took issue with what he said about the mother of humayun kahn. it is not accompanied by unfetterred license to defame those who are best among us. again, that statement from republican senator john mccain, miguel. >> if i could just respond to jeff's thoughts on immigration. i mean, the trump recant on a muslim ban was rather silly, because he

not a muslim has raised concerned. current -- the current minister defended the appointment saying he could be the bridge between the republic and french muslims. it will be used as a transparent financial tool. the foundation's hope is to tap into the french muslim trinity which is europe's largest. the idea of attacks on halal projects and pilgrimage have been put forward. 2500 places of worship in the country. previous attempt at building a similar organization in 2005 failed because of internal divisions within the french muslim community. there are doubts as to its effectiveness in the fight against extremism. a senate report showed that most radicalized individuals do not attend mosques. anchor: reconstruction after the devastating earthquake last week in italy should begin quickly but wisely. that is the latest from the italian prime minister with nearly 2700 people left homeless by the quake. 5810 camps have been set up but a longer-lasting solution is being sought for you 290 people are known to have died in t

i think we need to stop talking about good muslim and bought -- bad muslims. we need to moderate the mainstream and then you have the extremist to continue here and i think we can easily find very conservative scholars of islam, very conservative muslim's that we would disagree with but who would not necessarily be people who would commit violence. we have to see things in a broader perspective and a very more nuanced manner and working with local governments, i think we need to be aware that there are deeper and broader structural political questions that also need to be addressed for sample the question of autonomy. the grievances from the local coastal muslim population in kenya. you cannot just talk about seeing it as a separate thing. you also have to be willing to address and press local governments to deal with those in more deeper questions. the undersecretary question whether one needs more fine grained knowledge about what is going on. yes, we do. we definitely need more fine grained knowledge. these are incredibly complicated issues and i think also

but i think we need to stop talking about good muslim, bad muslims. we need to stop talking about, you have either moderate or mainstream. then you have extremists. that there is continuum here. we can easily find very conservative scholars of islam. very conservative muslims, that we, as would disagree with but who would not necessarily be people who would commit violence. so we have to see things in a broader perspective, in very more nuanced manner, and working with local governments, i think we need to be aware that there are deeper and broader structural political questions that also need toed to be addressed. for example, the question of autonomy of zanzibar. the grievances from the local coastal muslim population in kenya. i mean these are, you can not just talk about cve as a separate thing. you have also to be willing to address and press local governments to deal with those more, more, deeper questions. the undersecretary questions whether we need more fine grain knowledge about what is going on. yes, we do. we definitely need more fine grai

we need to call on the muslim community and work with the muslim community to get the muslim community onboard to fix this. how do you change it? >> that's a great point. and the campaign we launched in america is called true islam. true islam takes 11 points of these extremists use to manipulate religion to radicalize youth in particular. we have the counternarrative. the counterideology, like he talked about toot, the counter ideology of these 11 points, i invite donald trump to endorse these, like freedom of religion, like having equity with women, like no terrorist. so we have a campaign in place in america where we're inviting muslims and nonmuslims to come join us. and that's how we're going to provide a counterideology. the only people that agree are the extremists and the islamophobes that this is religion. this is not uz laum. >> you want to respond to that? >> absolutely. we need to keep inmind that he represents the movement who only account for 20 million muslims worldwide. it's a fraction. their movement started only in the 19th century, last century. he believes in angels

and who is not a muslim and as we know isis and other groups have for it have declared shia on muslims and i think obviously brought for all the reasons that you have pointed out earlier the reason this has such resonance in a country like iraq is because there was a sick. government. there was the maliki government that you write very extensively and very eloquently in the book and in great detail of how the maliki government actually institutionalized sectarianism. i think also it's important i think for people to understand that the reason this created such a shockwave in a country like iraq or in the region in general because it's had a ripple effect in bahrain and lebanon and in many countries so what has happened in iraq in iraq that the reason they created such a shock wave is that it changed the whole balance of power in the middle east. the sunnis always rolled and suddenly as you mentioned earlier with the iraq invasion the shia led government came to power in part because of the united states and so i think it may -- made the sunni-shia tension a threat for survival. each si

they are muslims also. how can we come up with those -- >> that's lik >> that's like asking my father to address the commentor. we are not going to get that invitation and it's pointless because i've been broadcasting and it makes no point for me to be there. i would ask them very simply where does the dignity of the individual come from, where does the dignity of the individual come from. it's purely a revelation. can they talk about the natural law, we are getting into a special territory. i would like to get them on thee record about this truth comes from. is it just from the koran because then you will see the wolf because it's a sheep's clothing very rapidly if they are honest about these questions. so, lastly i would ask what is the role of religion in politi politics? revelation and the role of politics. i've ask questions, i wouldn't give them recommendations because i think they are on the wrong trajectory. >> is their arrogance of ignorance that is a great question. it is easier to be arrogant if
