we still have a strong and somewhat resurgent al qaeda network in north africa coming back. al-shabaab remains loyal to al qaeda. there are rumors that our shabbat will move to isis because of finance and it has not been successful in somalia and kenya with what is doing. aqap is doing quite well in yemen without being a part of isis. there are rumors aqap might go to isis. we saw a leader we pledge the group's leadership. he has put aqap back in the al qaeda pile. why am i arguing al qaeda is still doing well? it is not most eminent threat to the united states. i think al qaeda is an enduring threat, and isis has raised the bar for intervention in a way it is dangerous long term for us. there is now a level at which al qaeda can operate with relative impunity, because it is not isis. i mentioned the al qaeda islamic system. that group has remained focused on france. what we see is the resurgence of attacks in mali. mali is not that important to the united states, but aqim has facilitated movement of fighters across the region . that is a major boon to any organization that

the operations undergoing now in the middle east and north africa are three phases. to beat the infidel you just break your operations down into phase one. classic war far where you do a dramatic irregular war far attacks. not the scale of 9/11 but dramatic attacks that's prepare the ground for phase two. phase two is the spreading of savagery. this is where you coordinate your irregular warfare attacks with dislocating the local government from its capacity to govern. challenging the syrian government iranian government, saudi or jordanian government from being able to govern its territory. and if it's true and reports i have received that on the day ramadi fell, they were in excess of 200 vehicle-borne ieds on that day. that means they are following this textbook and are on phase two. the last phase is consolidate and expand. consolidate held areas. here the purpose is to unite the populations fighting force to implement sharia law. and here's the real value added of naji. what he's doing in the final phase. this phase can last for a century. in this phase they are

north africa now a major concern. its a prime recruiting area for isis to get people to go back into syria, back into iraq. these are the three commanders who know what is going on there, and have an idea how they want to cope with it. jake? >> thanks very much. >>> ate less brick back in mark kimmet let me begin with you, the it's been about a year and a half where he referred to isil as the j.v. team obviously he has recalibrated. how would you grade the policy has in place to fight isis? what grade would you give? >> the policy execution a solid "d"? >> a "d"? >> a "d." the region is no more stable and isis is expanding. in his defense, we've been using the term long term war. john abizaid used to refer to it as long term. and that's a continuation of what we are seeing today. so maybe nine months is too much to ask, but the optimistic tone and the progress that i heard i don't think is matched in either in terms of the threats against the united states the stability in the region or the capability of the islamic s

the reports are fuzzy but you're talking 20%, 30% and a fair number from north africa. these folks, by the way, are from north africa, the folks picked up in belgium. you can participate some percentage of them not only back in the fight but return to north africa or europe. the concern here is twofold. number one, there are a lot of north african refuges in europe. they say these guys return from guantanamo to europe will embed themselves in these exopinipat reyacht communities. thousands of europeans have gone to syria and iraq to fight. when you get these guantanamo return years back to europe they will find communities that unfortunately have some young people who are willing to listen to the message. we will probably see more of this. >> and they are seen as heroes, i suppose, in some circles. >> sure. >> after getting out of guantanamo? >> that's right. you can think in mafia terms, they are mob guys and main men and the main men can come into these networks immediately because they are trusted. >> phillip mudd, appreciate your insight. thank you for being bus. >>

and across north africa.ibya, it's happening in libya. >> the way the nation is approaching the war on drugs isn't working. what do you believe is the best course of action to approaching? >> i don't to be honest, i want to listen to those people in the neighborhood. and as i said, the united nations is going to have next year a special general assembly on the issue, that's what should be happening. let's combine our collective thoughts. what has worked and what hasn't. many of the countries are banning that in the spring, they don't want it any more. it's a substitution, the common sense of, you can make more money doing one thing, it's going to be hard to substitute for something you're not. those have been the key of our approach to the drug trafficking. so i think get us all together. uruguay is doing some revolutionary things with their laws regarding this trafficking. but without a doubt, what i will said, the corruption gets into the court undermines everything that we want to happen anything good we w

we see a growing isil presence in libya and attempts to establish footholds across north africa, the middle east, the caucuses and southeast asia. we've seen attacks in ottawa, cydey -- cydey, france and copenhagen. i call on the international community to fight to fight this extremism. the united states continues to lied. when attacks against our nation we'll take direction against terrorists. we'll continue to partner with nations from afghanistan and nigeria to build up their security forces. we'll work day and night with allies and partners to disrupt terror networks and to smother nascent isil cells that might be trying to develop in other parts of the world. this also includes remaining vigilant in protecting against attacks here in the homeland. now, i think it is important for us to recognize the threat of vie limit extreme system not restricted to any one community. here in the united states we've seen all kinds of homegrown terrorism and tragically recent history remind us how even a single individual motivated by a hateful ideology with access to dangerous weapons can infl

they are from a number of countries in the middle east and north africa. what does this tell us about the freedom of movement, the fighters from one country to another. and i guess to some extent what that means in terms of being able to evade the arrest and detect of authorities? >> well, you're able to come into saudi arabia on a visa. you're able to come through the border that is shared with iraq. you're able to come in from a number of different place. you can come in. but it's only when you're on the radar screen that you affiliate with terrorist cells or isis sympathisters that you'll come on the radar. it is concerning. >> michael, we appreciate your analysis. thanks. >> thank you. >> well now iran's supreme leader said that the historic nuclear deal made this week will not change its policies towards the united states. and told cheering supporters that iran and the u.s. have starkly different strategies in the middle east, and they'll continue to support their allies such as bashar al-assad and hezbollah. and reiterated the longstanding policy tha

force in the same proportion as men, per capita income would rise by 27% in the middle east and north africa, 23% in south asia 17% in latin america, 14% in europe and central asia and 12% in africa. in short empowering women and giving them the same access without restrictions -- and there are restrictions everywhere -- is an economic game changer. i'm saying the restrictions are everywhere because we've done a study on that and we've borrowed from excellent data provided by the bank and there's clear evidence that those discriminations are not a factor of the developing world. they're just about everywhere. more generally imf research shows that income share in the bottom 20% is associated with higher gdp growth. you know the coefficient that measurings inequality. if inequality increases by one point wib it's associated with 56% higher risk that a growth spell will come to an end in the coming year. interesting. so growth that is more inclusive is also higher and more durable. to put it another way, as i said that empowering women is good economics and a game changer fairness is also good
