director wray? dir. wray: we have done a number of things. first, we have increased the outreach to state and local law enforcement and others to improve the reporting of hate crimes as well as outreach to faith-based communities, because one of the things we know about hate crimes as they are chronically underreported. we have a lot of engagement there, and that undoubtedly contributes to the increase in reported hate crimes. in addition, we have created a domestic terrorism hate crime fusion cell to try to get at offenses, hate-based violent extremes offenses against faith-based communities, which could either be domestic terrorism or hate crimes. the idea was to bring the expertise of both together. that has, in turn, that some of the most proactive hate crime cases, including one in particular, a disruption of an attempted bombing of a synagogue. we have had a number of cases like that that we are doing. we also elevated hate crimes to a national threat priority. it is sensitive outreach to faith-based communities and extensive investigat

i want to just start by taking in what christopher wray said. the jewish population is a little more than 2%, almost nothing in the united states. more than 60% of the threats. we can look at data or we can talk to our friends and family about how it feels. it's never felt this way in the united states -- i'll start with jews, for jews the level of concern and fear is palpable. >> it's understandable, right. threats to the jewish community have been an inescapable aspect of life in america for as long as we can remember. when you look at the statistics, some of which the director discussed today, that has been elevating over the last few years. so between 2021 and 2022 the adl says anti-semitic acts went up 29%. the director quoted 60% of religious-based threats are directed at the jewish community. that's a number he clarified later that was before the current unrest in gaza. we are at a watershed moment for this community and for federal law enforcement and intelligence's ability to get out in front of the threats and protect our communities.

emily, fbi director christopher wray, dr. marc siegel, you had not heard him talk about possibility that hamas and other terrorists could exploit and call out their supporters to conduct attacks on our own soil. let's watch a little from wray and go to emily. >> in the united states, our immediate concern is violent extremists, individuals or small groups draw inspiration from events in middle east to carry out attack against americans going about their daily lives, that includes home-grown violent extremist by foreign terrorist organization and targeting jewish or muslim communities on top of home-grown violent extremist threat, we cannot and do not discount that hamas may exploit current conflict and conduct attacks here on our own soil. >> emily: that is one takeaway every american should be focusing on right now, the whole point of this conversation at this moment, director of the fbi most immediate concern is that violent extremists, individuals or small groups will draw inspiration from the atrocity and violence to carr

ukraine saying that failing to do so would embolden america's enemies and fbi director christopher wray and alejandro mayorkas were warning about elevated threat levels in the u.s. since the war began. we'll have more on that in a moment. but let's go back to the blast at the jibbalia refugee camp. ben wedeman is in southern lebanon and the israeli defense forces are confirming that it is responsible for air strike and the damage. what more do we know about what and who they were targeting? >> well the israeli military, wolf -- jake, said that ibrahim was the target, he was the commander of the central jabbalia battalion and he was responsible for sending elite operatives into israel on the 7th of october for that surprise attack. and then he was also responsible for hamas forces in the northern gaza as isreal continues with its ground incursion. they say he was also responsible for a variety of attacks inside of israel going back decades. but we also know as a result of this attack in this very, very crowded refugee camp, that according to the head of indonesian hospital, there is some

director christopher wray went inside a few minutes ago. i have excerpts i want to read what he will say. we have said the actions of hamas and allies will serve as an inspiration since isis launched its caliphate years ago. multiple foreign terrorist organizations have called for attacks against americans in the west. he continued bottom line we'll continue to do everything in our power to protect the american people and support our partners in israel. expect to hear a lot about the southern border. mayokas, the homeland security secretary is also inside along with the director of the national counter terrorism center here in the united states. while blinken and austin those secretaries are focused on what's going on overseas with aid. here this hearing is focusing on potential threats to the u.s. homeland. we'll continue to watch. back to you. >> dana: thank you for that. john, over to you. >> john: joining us now for more on the israel/hamas war we have a columnist for the free press. benjamin netanyahu said this yesterday and the interr

fbi director wray said china is the defining threat of this generation.own well and we have known for many years now. what are they doing about it? >> obviously, not enough. we've known about this threat for about three decades. we're not protecting our networks and we're also not imposing costs on china for the theft of u.s. intellectual property. president trump in his 2018 tariffs, those were a remedy for the theft of u.s. ip. that was a good start. we need to go much further and china will continue to steal until we impose costs that are greater than the benefits china receives. maria, this is on our presidents and the american people really should be asking our presidents what are you doing about it because they're not. maria: exactly. and christopher wray keeps saying this but i still don't see any efforts to do anything about it. here's a quote. it is a threat to our way of life in number of ways, christopher wray said. the first is that when people talk about stealing innovation or intellectual property, that's not just a wall street problem. it's
