in recent years some associations have been accused of promoting radical islam and the german detail organization has often come under fire for its alleged close ties to the turkish government inspector hif wants to make sure the local muslim community continues to play an active role in german society. as police say me the police don't just investigate crimes we're also here to offer support to the community or to take effective action before a problem develops into something bigger. put into the field. so he's very interested to hear about the details plans for a new mosque the organizations local chairman is more than happy to share. true muslims have no hatred or enmity for people of other religious faiths. or their clout. to fully lived by it all. that if people are generally satisfied with their lives they'll be less likely to isolate themselves they need to know they'll be able to practice their faith freely in accordance with german law. and mechelle and share the same philosophy muslims who are integrated into society are less likely to turn to radical islam. for more than t

there is no law we can build between us and the forces of radical islam that reside in africa and the mideast, places like syria and iraq. and i tried to convey to him that our four deployed forces in partnership with others is a virtual wall. it is the best hope we have of stopping another 9/11, protecting ourselves and our allies, that a forward deployed presence gives us eyes and ears on the groundworking with others to protect the homeland and to destroy over time this scourge called radical islam. the partnership between us and the syrian democratic forces which have been mostly kurds has been very successful. and i want to compliment my colleague from new hampshire for taking the floor and expressing a resolve to maintain a fairly small military footprint in syria and having connected that to our own national security interests. maybe the good news, if there is any from today, is that democrats and republicans, after 16, 17 years of looking at this war, beginning to come together, that troops are necessary sometimes in some places, that military action alone won't win the war, b

introduced the tax if unlikely to tackle the issue of radical islam it will not in any way stop the influence of radical elements because they can always send their finances to german mosques or to german groups which are interest in the radical islam through foundations and are other ways so the financing through a mosque tax will not exclude these ways of funding it will just create a framework for institutionalizing and more deeply rooting islam in germany this step would perfectly fit the global agenda for migrants and the global compact form our refugees which have been adopted only reasonably i hear it on the real love to hear your thoughts on all of our stories so i do get in touch by following us on social media and join us again at the top of the out for the latest. i wouldn't make this manufactured consent to stick to the public well. when the ruling classes can protect themselves. with the crime larry if suddenly no one posts that. we can all middle of the room sick. deluded in the real news is really. oh oh. oh. oh. most of the from. somebody. who knows that book my name is all co

. >> we've had a lot of problems with radical islamic terrorism.hat i'd say. >> to solve a problem, you have to be able to state what the problem is or at least say the name. the name is there. it's radical islamic terror. >> the best way to keep foreign terrorists or, as some people would say in certain instance, radical islamic terrorists from attacking our country is to stop them from entering our country in the first place. >> so, when we talk about these incidents and some of them escalate, right, into incidents of domestic terror, he harped on that, about that. when you talk about massive right wing terror problems, if you look at the numbers, look at the stats, everyone. crickets. >> you're far more likely to be killed or harmed by someone who is a domestic terrorist from here in the united states than from some foreign terrorist, radical islamic terrorist donald trump likes to talk about. what trump was trying to vilify the people in the caravan coming to the united states just a few weeks ago in october, right before the campaign, you can

. >> if you are tired of fighting radical islam, i understand it.are not tired of fighting you. jane: markets tumble after the raisesderaler r interest rates in spite of white house pressure. how one republican mayor in texas is lighting up his party with renewable eyergy and -popping christmas display. viewers onme to our public television in america and around the globe. president pulling u.s. troops out of syria. in a tweet, he stated, "we have defeated isis in syria, my only reason for being there during the trump presidency." but the annowicement was met widespread criticism from america's allies and many republican senators. >> the decision withdraw an american presence from syria is a colossal, in my mind, miste, a great error that is going to have significant repercussions. >> it seems to me that our number one job is to defend america against people who want to attack us. if you are tired of fighting radical islam, i understand it. they are not tired of fighting you. if you don't get that, you are making a huge mistake. it takes two to end

it's radical islamic terror.some people would say in certain instances radical islamic terrorists from attacking our country is to stop them from entering our country in the first place. >> so when we talk about these incidents, some of them escalate, right, into domestic terror, he harped on that -- about that. when you talk about the massive right wing terror, if you look at the numbers, look at the stats, everyone, crickets. >> you're far more likely to be killed or harmed by someone who's a domestic terrorist here in the united states than some forei foreign terrorist donald trump likes to talk about. when trump was trying to vilify those people in the caravan you can see the numbers on the screen to verify what i'm saying. but while trump was vilifying all these other groups of people we had in this country here, pipe bombs being sent to cnn and other organizations, news organizations and to individuals who were being targeted. we had in this very country domestic terrorists who were attacking people, synago

this radical islamic movement won't leave us alone. you might be tired of fighting them, but they're not tired of fighting you. so i think there's a lot of support for the president to reconsider this. if he presses forward, he's going to own it all. if the kurds get decimated, he'll own that. it would be hard to sign up people in the future. if isis comesback the way i think they will, you'll own that. this is a gift to russia and iran, and that's not a good thing. >> you have become over time, you have become an important ally to the president on many issues and you said you work with him where you can and stand up when you can't. does this singular decision have the potential to change all that? >> well, that would be up to the president. i'm not going to change being me. the president has been very gracious toward me as an individual. i have played golf with him, i like his company. he does listen. i respect the fact that i have access to the president. i cannot be any good to him if i don't tell him what i honestly believe. i trie

you are not hearing it as radical islam but radical.ll come out sooner or later that he is radical islam and that is a -- attacked the christmas market because it is a center of christianity in the area. frankly this immigration policy of france and all of europe and all the refugees they allowed in, millions they allowed in, all throughout europe and it is not a good thing and they get control of it. heather: we talked before when incidents like this have happened in europe, globalism and immigration policies not working and lessons we should learn before it happens here. >> that's right. this is globalism. a high-minded concept for academics but when you get on the ground, you've got border police and customs officials that have to enforce the policies, week policies happening on our border. when you look at what ice folks have to deal with, it is overwhelming and there is intent to harm western society by islam and we have to accept that and it is a truism that has to be built into policy so we can strengthen borders all over the wes

second, countering the threat from radical islamic terrorism and violent conflict. isis, al qaeda, and their affiliates all operate and recruit on the african continent. plotting attacks against american citizens and targets. any sound u.s. strategy toward africa must address this serious threat in a comprehensive way. third, we'll ensure that u.s. taxpayer dollars for aid are used efficiently and effectively. the united states will no longer provide indiscriminate assistance across the entire continent without focus or prioritization. we will no longer support unproductive, unsuccessful, and unaccountable u.s./u.n. peace keeping missions. we want something more to show for americans hard-earned taxpayer dollars. under our new africa strategy, we'll target u.s. funding toward key countries and particular strategic objectives. all u.s. aid on the continent will advance u.s. interests and help africa nations move toward self-reliance. our first priority, enhancing u.s. economic ties with the region, is not only essential to improving opportunities for american workers

wrote first will this mosque task tax do you think stop islamic radicalization is claimed. no i don't think so because it will just create a framework for institutionalizing and more deeply rooting islam in germany but it will not in any way stop the influence of radical elements because they can always. sent their finances to german mosques or to german groups which are interested in the radical islam through foundations there are other ways so the financing through a mosque tax will not exclude these ways of funding do you think the tax coming in as anything to do with the tense relations with turkey are the main funder of these mosques. this is a possibility because turkish government has a strong interest in influencing the turkish muslims in germany even though they have sometimes a german passport. and his government believes that they still represent turkish society also in germany and therefore they try to keep a very close touch on them through d.t. for example they do this they finance. them to germany and after a few a few years they call them back to turkey so it

he worked with radical islamic groups. i remember that being a talking point on fox and friends in probably 2010. and that's -- i mean, i can connect the dots. this is where russian trolls figured out, oh, this is going to make an impact and they're still doing it today. >> yeah. there is this feedback loop. these originate perhaps on social media and being amplified on social media by bots or by accounts created specifically for this purpose and vice versa. conservative media picking up memes generated by bots and amplifying them in that way. so this is a real problem. putting aside president trump just for a second, this is a problem right at this moment and going forward because it is really easy to do this. i think that's what all of this really illustrates, that it is not all that sophisticated so create this loud speaker effect on social media that has a real effect of swaying people's opinions. and frankly not enough people are paying attention to it and trying to figure out how to respond to it and adding this back

at this time, the lack of economic progress in the region has accompanied the proliferation of radical islamic terrorism and other forms of violent conflict across africa. countering these serious threats is the second priority of our new africa strategy. in recent years, isis, al qaeda, and other terrorists operating in africa has increased their attacks, expanded into new areas, and repeatedly targeted u.s. citizens and interest. in mali, it describes itself as an al qaeda affiliate, is increasing in strength and killed and wounded scores of peace keepers, partner forces, innocent civilians, in addition to kidnapping westerners and threatening u.s. allies. in libya, the local isis affiliate has found fertile ground to recruit new terrorists and plot attacks against the united states. in south sudan, an ongoing civil war has ravaged a young nation, and lead to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. the continuing threat from terrorism and other violent conflicts across the region puts american lives at risk and drains vital american resources. between 2014 and 2018, the united states

that we are united in stopping the greatest radical islamic threat of all, which is iran. has been, out of this curse comes a blessing. the blessing is this extraordinary relationship between us and i think that ultimately we might be able to shift the ground. i don't think it's readily available right now but i don't discount that it could happen. we used to say if we make peace with the palestinians we'll break out and normalize our relations with the arab world. i think that actually may work the other way around. we normalize our relations with the arab world to help change the perception of palestinians. david: the relationship israel has now with the sunni arab world is better than you've ever seen it before, is that fair? mr. netanyahu: unbelievable. mr. netanyahu: unbelievable. and we work on it. david: let me talk about anti-semitism. it seems it is rising in europe. and to some extent in the united states we see some evidence of college campuses of israel not being that popular. does that concern you about the rise of anti-semitism? what do you think people can d

additionally saudi arabia has agreed to spend billions of dollars in leading the fight against radical islamic terrorism and we could spend hours to selecting those few sentences here. it seems to me that the reality is completely opposite of how president trump and my palm pale john bolton are characterizing what's going on in yemen right now your reaction joshua. well it is and the u.n. resolution they passed on yemen is really it requires the who these in the north to completely surrender and it is quite clear they're not going to do it and any effort to force them to surrender is going to require taking a day to the port and from which all of the grain goes and humanitarian assistance it would cause widespread famine from one end of yemen to the other right now that peace talks are going on to try to us to try to get some kind of agreement but that would mean saudi arabia really stepping back from its maximalist goals and. that's going to be hard to do because as we've seen m.b.'s is not a compromiser yeah he has rationally pushing his favor and he's really broken in many ways the gulf all
