international advisory and lieutenant colonel ralph peters is a fox news strategic analyst. t me start with you mr. peters. this is really troubling in all respects. i mean the cyber threat can come from any number of people who have ill intent for the united states whether it be russia. whether it be perhaps isis at some point or whether it be north korea. >> we have two self-inflicted problems with the cyber threat. one is a lack of leadership. two is the lack of laws. our laws on everything from intellectual property piracy to actual cyber attacks lag technological generations generations behind the threat. and on the other hand you have got no leadership, not in congress either, but certainly none from the white house until a little bit of dismay with the sony hack because that affected their hollywood base. adam: let me bring in mr. yates on this you used to be an advisor to vice president cheney and if you look at isis in iraq, part of the reason isis was able to become what it is today the united states had promised sunni muslims in iraq they would be part of a governm

as for the timing of this report, colonel ralph peters says that helps no one but our enemies. >> doing it at this time, shaun, amounts to nothing less than providing aid and comfort to the enemy. there is no practical value, prablg kl utility, practical advantage p gained by releasing this report trm only p people that gained is the terrorists that can you rev up the propaganda machine again. >> i heard all the run down, i heard at 3:00, all about what they used to enhance, interrogate. i heard all about the techniques they used, the enhanced interrogations, i heard too much of it to be honest with you. here's what we know. the cia briefed congress 30 times the briefings were -- in september of 2006, the administration decided to brief full committee and staff district t directors, there was no consensus which means proceed. -- he'll be grilled by us. i'm sure we'll be proper wi him, but i'm sure it will be very, very tough on him. that aside, now, what happened? so the cia interrogated abu zabeda who led us to clekhalid sheikh mohammed who called people in the dark zone and said be ca

lieutenant ralph peters said we cannot change islamic extremism and we can't be held responsible forit either. >> we are not to blame for their problem. it is an excuse as we used to say to the army is at zero meters. we have to defend ourselves against terrorists but muslims have to fix islam. in the middle east and beyond it is greatly in need of fixing. in pakistan in the name of allah terrorists blunder 132 children and nine teachers in cold blood and hot tempers. by the way those terrorists are the people diane fine stein doesn't think we should water board. a oo more explosive details about the enhanced cia interrogation program. the man who water boarded khaled sheikh mohammed talked about it. >> this thing was investigated over and over and over. if it was illegal i would be in jail. i was told by the highest law enforcement agency in the land that we were going to walk right up to the edge of the law and that's all the things that we had included in that list were legal. i didn't like it. i didn't enjoy it. i wasn't thrilled by it. i found it repulsive at times but i sucked

. >> colonel ralph peters. what's your reaction to this?>> sean, the grotesque and tragic joke, the members of the taliban or islamic state or al qaeda would execute the imam for being too liberal. he can apologize and make excuses all he wants, but this terrorism we're seeing is one facet of islam. and islam is now facing the greatest crisis since its founding decades. this is a multi-sided, multi-layered struggle about the soul and future of this religion and whether it's our president that's saying this isn't islam or the imam's saying it, when you're in denial, you can't fix the disease. the imam probably means well, but if he wants to save his faith, he needs to deal with it honestly. >> is the problem the koran in as much as how it's written and how it's interpreted? because this is not a small problem. this is a e problem. you know, you see it in pakistan today, australia yesterday. we know what we've dealt with in the united states. then we also see countries that live under shariah law and how they impress people and the interpreta

"the new york times" reported that on november 21st the administration quietly authorized a broader mission, allowing bombers and drones to support forces in combat missions similar to what's happening in iraq. will the afghan national army be willing to fight if put to the test? and will the taliban launch bolder offenses knowing that u.s. ground troops are headed out? one thing for certain, tribal -- often trump national loyalties. >> all excellent points. doug mckelway, thank you very much. >>> the death toll rising in a ferry fire in the adriatic sea. eight people confirmed dead after flames left hundreds of people trapped on their way from greece to italy. more than 400 people on board the boat were rescued. crews battl
