but they are aware there is a problem because there are al—shabab a problem because there are al—sha because there are al—shabab fundraisers and isis fundraisers and boko haram fundraisers. there are parts of certain cities like gothenberg, where police are reluctant to go into some of the suburbs stop there are people in swedish intelligence who know the fundraisers, but they cannot close them down. donald trump got into difficulty when he created problems in sweden. i am sure he will feel vindicated by this. sweden has been relatively unscathed by the wave of attacks that went across continental europe in the past two years, in france, belgium, holland, and germany, of course. they are not naive. they knew sooner or later something would come. osama bin laden, before he was killed, he was not aware swedish special forces we re was not aware swedish special forces were active in afghanistan. he said, do you see us attacking sweden? we don't because they are not at war against us. they work. but discreetly. they have very good special forces and good discreetly. they have very good s

do we wait a year or two to help the africans with al shabab.ead of the curve, because they're reacting much quicker than we are. >> reporter: the american strategy in syria and iraq is to use u.s. air power. and to train forces on the ground to fight the battle. that has not worked. how do you move forward from here? >> i think the problem with the west is they see a border between syria and iraq. daesh does not, and this has been a frustration for a few of us in this area with our western coalition partners for years. the lawyers get into the act and say, but there's an international border. and we say, for god's sake, isis doesn't look at it that way. if you want to play the game by your rules, knowing that the enemy doesn't, we're not going to win this. >> reporter: jordan says it has flown more than 1,000 missions against isis in syria in coordination with the u.s. last year a pilot was captured. isis put him in a cage and made a video as they burned him alive. at the time, abdullah had two terrorists in jail. >> within hours of that video,

all al-shabab moving into northern kenya, we couldn't do anything about it because we didn't have theuthority to move money from one account of the other, to stand up in the capacities needed to keep terrorist recruitment in kenya and today. the global crisis prevention account will give the president the ability to deploy the assets into the area before it falls into chaos. nonmilitary stabilization assets. we don't have the resources or the agility to do this now. second, a pre-funded global health account that will allow the president to stop a pandemic in its infancy rather than having to wait once it reaches adolescence. estimates are that the billions spent on ebola could have been just the millions is the obama administration had the money to spend one year earlier. as you read through this report or the executive summary, i do hope that you will not think i've gone mad. i understand what i'm doing here. i'm arguing unapologetically for doubling of the foreign affairs budget over the course of five years at a political moment in time when the president is calling for the same b

personnel stationed in djouboti and immediately to the southeast on isis-linked al shabab and somaliaomalia the rules of engagement against al shabaab have been changed from self-defense in the obama administration in what they call additional precision fires. the u.s. is also said to be concerned about the ongoing construction of a chinese naval base in djibouti miles from the u.s. compound, division head says having chinese and u.s. bases just miles apart is like two competing major football teams having their exercise grounds next to each other and that they'll definite i will keep an eye on each other. >> having china and the u.s. in djibouti is important because they are two major strategic pors and hing them bh in africa and chinese expanding in africa, they can keep one another in balance. that's why it's important for africa. >> also while mattis is talking about pumping up military operations in the war against terror in africa, the u.s. at the un is saying it will crank down america's peace-keeping missions for the un. eric: thank you so much. arthel. arthel: voters have cho

known that al qaeda and the arabian peninsula had almost a decade now increasing connections with al shabab, the al qaeda affiliate in somalia. so the concern there is there's sort of -- if you will, a certain amount of public domain information that allows you to see a link, what intelligence authorities have behind the scenes, we don't know. but the real concern is that spread of this key sophisticated bomb makers expertise and skills. >> and so, david, now that reportedly these terror groups obtained these screening devices, if that is, indeed the case, then is it possible for airports, for the screening devices to be updated so that they are far many sophisticated than any of these terror groups may have gotten their hands on? >> security at airports is konl evolving thing. it's reactive. what we're seeing here is the fact that the airports that haven't been upgraded to detect this type of weapon have not been done yet. so that's -- it's on the mitigation side. it's the threat and mitigation and that balance between the two. the mitigation in these airports has been identified as not ad

the plane landed safely despite the attack, claimed by the al qaeda affiliate al shabab. cnn has learned the explosives were hidden in space created by removing parts of the dvd drive. >> paul cruickshank joins us now, cnn terrorism analyst for more on this. paul, you were telling us just now that this is serious but not catastrophic. >> serious. because these terrorist groups including al qaeda in yemen are developing new ways to try to get bombs onto airplanes including by concealing them inside laptops. they're perfecting some of those techniques, the intelligence suggests. they are obtaining detection systems to try to probe their weaknesses. and so there's significant concern that they may stage future attempts to try to get a bomb onto a western passenger jet. but at the same time the state-of-the-art systems which are deployed in airports in the united states, in europe and certain other parts of the world including places like dubai and abu dhabi, those state-of-the-art systems are actually very good at detecting the kind of explosives that groups like al qaeda in

for whether al qaeda or isis or al shabab. what is your analysis? >> any action like this, because we are the united states, will be an opportunity for that action, even if it's justified, to be manipulated by our enemies to say, look, they're always against us, or, you know, here's -- one of the challenges is going to be the expectation management challenge. we have now gone in. there are a lot of rebels in syria. there are a lot of people in syria that will hope that we go in a lot further. it is not clear to me the trump administration is going to do that. so, denied expectations are often used as a form of recruitment. so, all of that, we're going to have to be watching because if this was just a one-off, there are a lot of people in syria, probably applauding this now, hoping that this is the beginning of the end of assad. we've been down this path bef e before, the administration's statements are not -- i would say just not precise about, you know, assad at this stage, about whether we want him in or out. and i think we're just going to have t

now, the president has approved the pentagon's plan to beef up its targeting of al shabab in somalia,ing the military greater latitude to decide when and where to strike. for more on all of this, we turn to sarah sewall. she served as undersecretary of state for civilian security, democracy and human rights during the obama administration. she's written extensively about military operations and civilian casualties. she's now at johns hopkins university. first, just walk us through what the changes are that the pentagon announced. >> essentially, president obama had created two categories for thinking about the use of force in the context of the war on terror. one was more like targeted killing with more restricted types overtargets that you could both choose and be forced to identify, and it controlled the effects of those uses of force more closely. the other is more like what americans would understand as war, general hostilities, and what has happened is the current president has now moved, according to reports, moved the somalia engagement of the u.s. forces from the category of m

september 11 terrorist attacks now applies to anyth that donald trump wants to do in somalia against al shababr against isis? >> this is just providing cover. it needs to be repealed. it has nothing to do with anything donald trump is conducting in terms of military action. it's been used in yemen, it's been used in somalia, syria, of course, iraq, afghanistan, isis, you name it. so what i am trying to do, joy, is repeal this. i've tried over and over again, and i'm going to continue to try, because we need an authorization to use force specific to whatever region or whatever country the president wants to use force. congress, again, is missing in action. i asked speaker ryan to bring us back right away from our recess so we could engage in this debate and vote up or down a new authorization, but he has not responded, unfortunately, so this gives donald trump, once again, free rein to conduct military ventures in the world. >> a lot of people don't remember the dramatic speech you gave on september 14, 2001, warning exactly about what you're talking about now. let's play a little bit of that.
