it's not like, who is a muslim versus why would you be a muslim? most people, their question is how to do that and it's this constant struggle and struggle is a good thing, it's not a bad thing. if this why is this important to me and i wanted to capture some of that. for me, i think you can choose to have an identity that's very disjunctive, i am this or that or you can have something that's conjunctive and what's interesting to me about nyu's i went to study philosophy because i wanted to make sense of the world around me. and i hope, i know that c-span is still up, can you make sure that nobody from nyu philosophy watches this? thank you. i appreciate that. so look, i love my philosophy majors. caveat. there was none of the thinkers that i studied who were men and white and christian, right? could even make sense of high school classmates religiosity. like, it was like, we're going to define the entire planet but we can't even make sense of how most americans want their lives. which is that kind of liberal bubble that produces the kind of condes

the good muslim community who will have more effect on the bad muslims than we can have as non-muslims. we have to enlist those people battles.eological the ordinary citizen in this country -- it was the shoe bomber that was stopped by airline passengers, not even first responders. if you see something, say something. the role of the citizen has to be sharpened as well. the bottom line, we have the outlines of a comprehensive terrorism, deal with we have the resources to do it, a lot of good people working on this. we have made a lot of progress. and make fararpen more effective a comprehensive strategy. >> thank you, we. have really spoken to my next question. what is next? thomas, if you would like to comment on what lee presented. lee and i always think along the same track. he says what i want to say before have a chance. [laughter] is a snapshot in time. if you've read that report, it is reflective of the united states government. the department of the congress, , their failurets to dissipate 9/11 and prevented. we made 41 recommendations. the vast majority of congressman calls ha

stinky muslims. it's just. the most prominent victims of government policies other ahind who live in west in my own mouth. their plight has sparked accusations that the regime is intent on destroying them as a people. we have shared our evidence with the international state crime initiative at london university. what these documents speak to is an organized planned strategy in relation to the right that's a genocidal strategy we have also provided files and testimony to a law clinic at yale university they will issue a legal judgment based on data that includes our documents and those collected by the advocacy group forty fire rights. the law school will assess whether members of the my and my government could face charges under the international genocide convention has there been purpose action that will result in the destruction of this group all of these statements create a cumulative general tenor that points to intent i think international criminal court should consider an investigation. so. i. thought i m

then we have got to enlist the good muslim community who have more effect on the bad muslims that we can have as non- muslims so we have to enlist those people in this ideological battle in the final point i would make here is the role of the ordinary citizen in this country. it was the shoe bomber that was stopped by airline passengers in the first instance and not even the first responders and it counts when we say if you see something, say something. the role of the citizen has to be sharpened, as well. bottom line in all of this is we've got the outlines of a competence of strategy that deals with terrorism and we have the resources to do it and we have a lot of good people working on it and we made a lot of progress but we have got to sharpen and make far more effective a comprehensive strategy we thus have. >> thank you, lee. you spoken to what my next question would be which is what is missing from our efforts. can you spell that out in considerable detail and i would like to ask thomas if you would like to comment on what we presented in what additional you might -- >> one of

on the bad muslims then we can have as non-muslims. so we have to enlist those people in his ideological battle. the final point i would make here is the ordinary citizen in this country. it was the shoe bomber that was stopped by airline passengers. accounts when we say if you see something, say something. the role of the citizen has to be sharpened as well and the bottom line in all of this, we have got the outlines of a comprehensive strategy to deal with terrorism. we have got the resources to do it. we have got a lot of good people working on it. we have made a lot of progress but we have got to sharpen and make far more effective at comprehensive strategy than we have had. >> thank you, lee. you have really spoken to what the next question will be, so what's missing from our efforts? you spell that out in considerable detail and tom if you'd like to comment on what we presented and what additional he might add. >> one of the law -- nice things lee and i think along the same track but he only says what i want to say before i say i

all sites holy to jews, christians and muslims. good evening. tonight war stories investigates the jihad. the holy war or struggles to spread well beyond this yanjient city of david, threatening innocent people around the globe. as you see, the jihad goes far beyond terrorists taking hostages, hijacking aircraft and the horror of suicide bombers. this is a war we did not want and few saw coming. stay with us. as war stories investigates the jihad. >> you don't need them there. they are coming to you. >> i'm very aware they might be able to kill me. >> it is a war that is coming in and it's a war that make take 25 years. >> our responsibility is to not leave anyone tomorrow. >> they are menacing images of a hate-filled ideology with mosques, college campuses and religious schools. they use the internet, television, even graffiti to attract recruits worldwide and captivating the boy next door. >> the consequences in this world and the income. >> experts are uncertain of how many 1.2 billion muslims are militant who is joined the jihad. people eage

it's not about being muslim. not all muslims are islamic of terrorists for that matter but 99% of the islamics that want to come here on the backs of isis ideology happen to be muslim so they want to ignore that fact but it has nothing to do with muslim population or anything. they ignore the realities and sacrifice our national security as a result. >> cheryl: okay, so you know it's interesting because you've got this muslim activist and women's march could-founder linda sarser. she says muslim ban 3.0, no muslim ban ever and then she shed you would think north koreans are lining up to come to the u.s. but they are not. shake my head how is this a muslim ban 3.0. okay so she has a point there's not a lot of north koreans trying to get into the united states legally anyway not getting on to airplanes but trying to get to freedom somehow >> absolutely and this is a message many of the islamics sympathizers, like the american islamic relations who hasn't seen an islamic republic they don't love like the turks or th

a muslim. then i often compare that to how there's, i believe it's 6% of domestic terrorists acts have been committed by a muslim. so 94% have not. and yet it often seems like the policies and legislation that are directed towards, you know, countering domestic terrorism, are focused on our community. and it often seems like hate and fearmongering around this narrative is constantly geared towards our community. right? so that's the disparity, that people just don't understand muslims. they don't know what we actually -- who we are, what we believe in, what our values are. and some people might not ever want to know, but that doesn't mean we're not still going to try to tell them and speak up for it. i have been a part of activist groups and organizations and starting some in michigan locally that actually fight back against anti-sharia law legislation in different states across the country because another very important piece to this is, yes, we need to run for office and have a seat at the ta

has a lot of people in it that are excellent muslims, peaceful muslims, admirable on all aspects. it also has some aspects of the group that advocate violence. the advocacy of violence is what we have to really target. we don't want to target lost muslims. the people we are after are not only people who advocate violence but who act on that view and that's where ideology comes in. i must say i would defer to some of the experts because i know they have studied that group in great detail. >> all i would add is to point out in the executive summary, toward the last paragraph or two that the key hint is not what people believe, they may believe things very different than what we believe in western democracy. the key is advocacy and action on behalf of violence. that is the point of differentiation where we do become very concerned. >> next question. >> my name is jan and i have the fortune early in my career to work for governor kane in his washington office and subsequently, post 911, i have the misfortune to run a large communications network and cyber security operation. my questi

muslims who went to go into the legislators because last year they were attacked, the muslims that were there but now we have people engaged in the process. we're trying to get the muslim community and the arab community engaged in the electoral process so people are working with our revolution in terms of organizing and electing your representatives. we have people working with the democratic party in san antonio and in austin and actually tomorrow there is a fund-raiser for the muslim community in austin so we've been very active with people who are running for congress and also supporting people who are running against roger williams -- or is it william rogers? whatever his name is is our representative, he's one of those terrible guys. so we're pretty active in terms of when it comes to that but we're working very closely with the latino community. i think they have a better chance of getting people elected in texas than arabs and muslims. arab and muslims are not there yet because of all the things that you have said but i'm going say something that my wife asked me not to say but

and days after its muslim inhabitants had left. why could we see more smoke rising ominously in the distance? we were taken to our a kind buddhist village. hatred and fear of muslims is intense here. all the more so since some took up arms. like the government they don't accept that ray hinges bang goalies they call them. belonging emma who would go like never like. bank really people. this says routing got is not routine yeah. did they lie did. did they lie. bingley did lie. this might. my fatherland not bangla need that. this is the result of that hatred. by chance we spotted a fine place to the road. which you just been started. it was a muslim village called go to tire. the roof of the madrasa. i just been set alight. islamic school books were strewn across the pond. this happened within walking distance of a large police barracks. which just arrived at this village as you can see from these fires. they've only just been less in fact. we bumped into the people whom i certainly let them carrying machetes. not wanting to talk. th

more than 50 -- 50% of the villages of muslims are intact. they are as the word -- they were before the attacks took place. we would like to know why. this is what we have to work towards, not just looking at the problems, but also looking at areas where there are no problems. -- whye these problems have we been able to avoid these problems in certain areas? we would like to invite the members of our diplomatic community to join us in our endeavor to learn more from muslims who have integrated successfully into the rohingya state. if you are interested in joining us in our endeavor, please let us know. you to visite for these areas and ask them for yourself why they have not fled. why they have chosen to remain in their villages, even at a time when everything around them seem to be in a state of turmoil. apart from what we are doing in the matter of soothing the fears of our people, we have been continuing with social-economic development programs in a rohingya -- in rohingya. economic development plan for the next four years has been drafte

i think islam hates us he said he thought it was a good idea for muslims to have id cards and then he goes and tries to implementable i think what this president is doing is what every president should do with this country and that is to make sure that we are all safe that's the bottom line the thing is the president said temporary ban and i don't know why everybody tends to look at that one ignore it out that was a hugely controversial area yes it still is but it had direct repercussions only the street for muslims in this country insofar as there was a climate where he when he called for his original muslim ban he might have said i don't times in time is opposing a ban on muslim immigration hate hate hate hate hate attacks on the streets of various cities around the country as a consequence of this controversy surrounding the muslim bad as it was known but the thing is that you also hear about and i think that we have to point out that there is violence on both sides are today in these days on all sides so it's not like you know one group is attacking another and the other group is

it's not just charlottesville allston lewis the council on american islamic relations the largest muslim civil rights organization in the u.s. has found that the number of hate crimes in the first half of this year was up ninety one percent in the same period last year and many americans lay the blame for this resurgence of hate firmly on the president's doorstep when mexico sends its people they're not sending their best they're not sending you they're not sending you they're sending people that have lots of problems and they're bringing those problems with us. they're bringing drugs they're bringing crime they're rapists and some i assume are good people his critics say the trump presidency has normalised white supremacy and the bigots. all right let's introduce our guests now we have dayrell johnson who's former lead analyst for domestic terrorism at the u.s. department of homeland security we have day gardner president of the national black pro-life union and corey saylor director of the department to monitor and combat islamophobia at the council on american islamic relations welcom

the tennessean government has lifted a ban on muslim women mowing the lawn muslim men president. said see recommended the change saying to his young is to modernize muslim men were allowed to marry non muslim women but not the other way round those are the headlines on al-jazeera in search of putin's russia is up next. i'm andrea cross of a filmmaker and journalist and i've spent the past year traveling my country trying to understand. the soviet union was almost as large as the russian empire which spanned three continents in the nineteenth century. today's russia has lost many of the territories the towers conquered and the soviets regain but some are still part of russia. this is a no swedish finnish town of baber the soviet union invaded in one nine hundred thirty nine and finally and next this part of them in nineteen forty four. russia remains the largest country on earth even they only the ten most populous. it's still extremely diverse with about one hundred languages spoken by some hundred and fifty ethnicities. the former soviet republics are now independent states. yet

these cross which we no trace back to 1960 and some cases every foundation moment of the muslim -- muslimbrotherhood means they are constantly -- groups like daesh and al-qaeda and so for the constantly changing their direction. in some is changing the way that they framed themselves but also means there highly adaptive. and the third defamation, that also means, the real issue about what we can do about these sort of, non-muslims can do by these ideologies, which i think is for all of us good western liberals we can to think -- [inaudible] that we don't have an ideology. actually we do. liberalism is as much an ideology as anything else. i remember having a conversation with former prime minister david cameron about this and i said to him, you talk a lot about the importance of british values in this. this is a way, what are those values? is it cricket? is it drinking warm beer works what is it? if you don't articulate what these values are, it's very difficult to articulate what it is for people, what will the tolerance level in any given society for deviation us, radical challenging re

that all muslims are on one side and non-muslims on the other side but inherently you are kind of doingo. the way that we look and talk about the ideology and we talk about muslim youth and muslim identity and failed to recognize that muslims are not all the same everywhere and we are doing the same thing that we are combating in a way which is this us versus them perspective. if you look at domestically and internationally and we just carved our tasks into these two things the domestic narrative -- there's a battle of ideas domestically and internationally. well, the us narrative of inclusion and democracy and all of that stuff that we believe in and that we do here in our country, that is one issue. i think that is a battle we can win. i think that the us government can win a battle of ideas with isis when it comes to targeting muslim youth in the us. we have a strong case to be made here but when we tried to do it abroad the government that we are allied with don't live up to our standards as we state them. the opportunities of people in the middle east or indonesia or wherever we ju

american or american muslim? this is been going on for the last 15 years. we hear this debate pop-up all the time we decided to test. we found that what works is americans who are muslims. why does that affect? it's because americans is a noun and muslim is simply one adjective that describes a multifaceted person. you could face that, you could say surfers who are muslim. it's still the same concept, it's still a noun that is what it is any adjective that describes it. like mandolins, remember mandolins? that's why that concept works a littlebetter. >> similarly, when we ask people , when we said muslim americans are monitored closely by the united states, people rejected that premise. they were like, yes but we're all monitored in the united states. i'm okay with that if if it keeps our country safe. we modify that sentence is a muslim americans are monitored more closely than other americans, that changed the way people thought about things. it was no longer equal, it was different. muslim americans are being
