1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,719 Speaker 1: So what we know about the plot, it's very very large. 2 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:04,520 Speaker 1: They want to do three times the size of nine 3 00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: to eleven. It's very simple. They want to do another 4 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: aviation plot, but this time their intent is to take 5 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: down about a dozen airliners using suicide bombers. They want 6 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: to do. It's kind of like a siege on DC 7 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: is the best way to put it, very Bombay style. 8 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:19,600 Speaker 1: And then the last piece. 9 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:24,119 Speaker 2: Just recently, the counter Terrorism Center issued a warning that 10 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 2: said foreign terrorists are actively seeking how to engage American 11 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 2: and American interests all over the world, in particular in 12 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,840 Speaker 2: the Homeland. On today's show, I want to welcome Sarah Adams, 13 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: who has since her her appearents on The Sean Ryan Show, 14 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 2: has had a meteoric rise in not only describing the 15 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,199 Speaker 2: magnitude of what foreign terrorists or how they're training, how 16 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 2: they're being funded, but more importantly raising the flag, raising 17 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 2: the alarm that something is coming to the American shoreline. 18 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 2: So it is an absolute honor and privilege to welcome 19 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 2: Sarah to the show today. 20 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 3: Sarah, thank you so much for joining me. 21 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me for sure. 22 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 2: All right, So just to get out of for those 23 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 2: who aren't aware and aren't paying attention. What is your 24 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 2: prediction right now? What do you think has been in planning, 25 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: has been in planning, and what is on the precipice 26 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 2: of taking place. 27 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's not a prediction if people are unaware. 28 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: We've been running human networks into al Qaeda for a 29 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: decade now. Of course it was to identify the terrists 30 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 1: to attack this in Benghazi, but since the fall of Kabble, 31 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 1: a lot of those Libyans went to Afghanistan. Right, So 32 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: the interesting part is everybody's coming back together, the bands 33 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: back together, and that's why we have the threat picture 34 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: we have. So what we know about the plot, it's 35 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: very very large. They want to do three times the 36 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: size of nine eleven. It's very simple. They want to 37 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: do another aviation plot, but this time they're intent is 38 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: to take down about a dozen airliners using suicide bombers. 39 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,559 Speaker 1: They want to do. It's kind of like a siege 40 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: on DC is the best way to put it, very 41 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: Mumbai style. And then the last piece isis is going 42 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: to kind of handle this piece. They want to have 43 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: attacks where you live, work and play. These are community 44 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: level attacks, so we're talking churches, shopping, centers, hospitals, and 45 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: their focus is really on communities that have a higher 46 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,119 Speaker 1: percentage of a veteran population because they want the veterans 47 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: to feel in the hometowns what they felt in Iraq 48 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: and Syria and Afghanistan. That's supposed to be the feel 49 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: of that piece. 50 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 2: Interesting, all right, And so as you've been tracking this obviously, 51 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 2: I mean you were former tracker yourself. 52 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 3: How does how? 53 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 2: I mean the thing that really got me recently is 54 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 2: you talked about the fact about Hamza bin Laden, the 55 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: unification of all the different cells coming together. Have you 56 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 2: seen as a result of that marriage that took place 57 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 2: with Mula Omar's daughter, right? 58 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 3: Or is that what it was? 59 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 2: And is an explosion because of how many cells or 60 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: actual or how many organizations have come together and are 61 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 2: training now in Afghanistan and other places. Has the chatter 62 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 2: just exploded around the world. 63 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean a really important thing to understand is 64 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: all of these terrorists first generation. So if we talk 65 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: Bilat and Zaui, Hiries, the Libyans, it doesn't really matter, right, 66 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: all of their kids intermarried and now all their kids 67 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: are in their forties and then the grandchildren are right, 68 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: bin Laden's Omar's or Hakhani's or whatever you want to 69 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: call it. So first off, there seems to be a 70 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: lot of confusion still the government where they say al Qaida, 71 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: Talavan Hakani. Well, when you have the Minister of Defense 72 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: of the Taliban, he's the brother in law of Hamsa 73 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: bin Laden, and you have the Minister of Interior Strategy 74 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: in Nakhani, who's the brother in law of Kamsa min Lad, 75 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: And then your homs have been on how do you 76 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: put Hakani's Talvan and al Kaida separate? If they're in 77 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: you and married, they're no longer separate. So that's the 78 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: first part. They just came together by marriage. Now Hamzah 79 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: went back to an old plan as father had. It's 80 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: nuanced called Islamic Army, but the real name is like 81 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:23,359 Speaker 1: the Islamic Resistance Council. And all this is is for 82 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: the last year they've been making deals with partnerships with 83 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: a number of terrorist groups and so they will share training, reseach, 84 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: so there's share funding, work on plots together. If you're 85 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: all Shabbab, you need fifty more guys to do some 86 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: certain plot, Mogidishue will provide you fifty from these other groups. Right, 87 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 1: it's this proxy based army is the best way to 88 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: put it. So now when we talk about the home 89 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: Lamp plot, all of this proxy army is coming to 90 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: support it. So even though it's Al Kaieda's plot, there's 91 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: gonna be Isis, there's gonna be HTS, there's gonna be 92 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: al Shabab, going to be j and I Am, It's 93 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 1: going to be all kind as of the branch is AQAPQ, 94 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: who's azon Sharia from Olivia, et cetera. So this is 95 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: where it gets very, very complicated. This is kind of 96 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: the new way that they have kind of innovative and grown, 97 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: and we're not ready for this. 98 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 3: I think that's fascinating. 99 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 2: And one of the other things that you know, you 100 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 2: had made a comment about the recent CTC announcement and 101 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: saying that you know, it's great to have Tulci Gabbert 102 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 2: and Joe Kent at the helm. There people who have 103 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 2: been in the fight, in particular Joe one of my 104 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 2: favorite human beings on the planet. But you know, when 105 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: you look at the previous administration and probably even in 106 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 2: Trump's first administration, you know, as the manipulation of ISIS 107 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 2: and the Syrian and the development of what's taking place there. 108 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 2: You have this kind of blind eye that's turned away 109 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 2: for it. I mean the whole thing with Legend going 110 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 2: on Sean's show and talking about US still funding you know, 111 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 2: the Taliban of forty million dollars a week. 112 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 3: That's mind blowing to me. 113 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 2: And so it seems like our intelligence community has almost been, 114 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 2: you know, focused on something else. 115 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 3: As all this has imagined. How hard is. 116 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 2: It to shift focus back and start putting assets in 117 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,359 Speaker 2: organ or not organizations, but different units on the hunt 118 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 2: now in real time. 119 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, well a lot of this happened because you know, 120 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: everybody failed to go after ISIS, and then when they 121 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: realize isis IS and the JV team they become this powerhouse. 122 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: They shifted all the resources towards that. Well, the terrorists 123 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: took advantage of that, as you can imagine, they're like, Hey, 124 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: America wants to fight ISIS, We'll fight ISIS. And that's 125 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: when we started work with the Taliban against ISIS. Now 126 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: we're working with Abu Mohammed al Julani against ISIS, but 127 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: we're not doing real operations. I wrote a whole fifty 128 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: page report on how the fake in Afghanistan. The same 129 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: thing's happening so far this year. We killed the head 130 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: of ISIS twice in Syria. I guess what, he's alive. 131 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: We're gonna come a third time. But so first off, 132 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: we need leaders, especially Sancom's saying yeah, we're not killing 133 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: who we're saying we're killing. These are ruses. Our BDA 134 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: is basically coming from terrace. We're failing until the military 135 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: and the intelligence community be honest that they're not really 136 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: getting the targets. They say, it's gonna be really hard 137 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: to fix that peace because remember they're then the people 138 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: who brief the president. So how's he gonna know that 139 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: we didn't really get the head of ISIS because he has, 140 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: you know, the commander of Sancom telling him. So that's 141 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: one really frustrating part. The other part is the CIA 142 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: got the assessment wrong that Hamsa Bien lawed in his death, 143 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: so they told her to President Trump and his last term, 144 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: and he announced it to the country. Well, now they 145 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: don't want to go tell Trump because he's obviously gonna 146 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: wipe out their whole department, which he should do. Right, 147 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: they're covering their own bucks. They're not doing what's right 148 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: for the American people. So we have a lot of 149 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: hubris in the intelligence agency. We have a lot of 150 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: people who are protecting their turf. And remember we have 151 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: this frustrating piece that they're like, we just got to 152 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: wait a few years, we wait this leader out, we 153 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: get another leader. Right, That's another thing to be really, 154 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: really honest about. So it's gonna be really hard to 155 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: shift to al Qaeda. It's very difficult to get anyone 156 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: to say al Kaida. I think everybody kind of took 157 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: this huge side relief when Joe Knt's title said al Qaida, 158 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 1: like it was like, oh my god, we haven't been 159 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: able to get anyone to sell Kida for like four years. 160 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: Like he brought almost like a lot of hope to 161 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:44,199 Speaker 1: the community. But they now need to get the rest 162 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: of the IC on board, and we have not seen 163 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 1: that happen yet. 164 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 3: Oh that's that's disheartening. 165 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: But hopefully, I mean, I'm out of everybody out there, 166 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 2: I'm most optimistic with Joe and told you, I mean, 167 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: I really I think he's fought him, he's been there, 168 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 2: he understands, you know, the capability, and I just you know, 169 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 2: hopefully he'll pivot, all right. One of the things that 170 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 2: I think most civilians struggle with is just processing the 171 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 2: reality of that could be true, that there are not 172 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 2: just you know, uh, six pilots that are hiding in 173 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 2: different locations. And I'll tell you what, you know, I'm 174 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 2: really interested to see the Catherine I don't know if 175 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: you paid attention to Catherine Hendrids reporting recently about the 176 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 2: exposure of the Saudi people that had actually welcomed in 177 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 2: a couple of the pilots into California, supported him financially 178 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 2: all this, and you know that that alone is just staggering. So, 179 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 2: you know, in these times and as Tucker releases his 180 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 2: nine to eleven documentary, you're like, oh my god, is 181 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 2: you know what's taking place? 182 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 3: Wait? What is the size of this? 183 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 2: Look at And I think most civilians can't fathom that 184 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 2: or the entire process of how it takes place. So 185 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 2: could you walk us through, you know, one like, how 186 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 2: does a sleeper cell get formed? 187 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 3: Right, where does it get trained? 188 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 2: Where do they you know, how do they end up 189 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 2: making it into America? And just kind of walk us 190 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 2: through how a cell will make it to a place 191 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 2: all the way to where they're on standby to receive activation. 192 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: Sure. I mean we'll talk present day because things have 193 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: changed just a little bit. So how it's working now 194 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: to do an external operation. If you're Al Qaida or Isis, 195 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: it really doesn't matter. You go into basically an external 196 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: operations training camp, okay, and then if you meet muster 197 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: and you're qualified and you meet the background necessary to 198 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 1: go overseas, you kind of move up and keep doing 199 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: added training and you learn different things. So obviously what 200 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: they're looking for is that you're patient, you speak good English, 201 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: you can blend in the water, you have some sort 202 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 1: of skiller expertise that would be like a really great cover. 203 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: So they look for people who can fit that background. 204 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: Its very similar to the not to eleven hijackers. You know, 205 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: when you talk about like those Saudis who took care 206 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,479 Speaker 1: of them, we have to remember these nine eleven hijackers 207 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: came from wealthy families. They were educated, they knew people 208 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: within their governments. They went to school with the richest kids, 209 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: So you had to keep that in mind, that they 210 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: had personal relationships that might not be with the actual government. 211 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: It's because they grew up in these environments. You know, 212 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: I work Kashmir for many years well, the Kashmiri terrists 213 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: who had wealthy families all went to the same boarding schools, right, 214 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: So I'm just letting people know like that you're missing 215 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: a little bit of nuances in actually the terrorist personal 216 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: relationships with people who are always willing to help them. 217 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 1: As you know, it'd be like if someone reached out 218 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: to me from my middle school, you know, I jumped 219 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: to help them. Now, so they go through these camps. 220 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: The interesting part is first what happens if you fail 221 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: the camp? Right, Like, nobody talks about that. So if 222 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: you're in an al Qaeda camp to come to the 223 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: United States or Europe and you fail, what they do 224 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: is they move you to an asis course on province 225 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,959 Speaker 1: camp and you get a very short training session. It's 226 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: maybe like to do stabbings or something like that, maybe 227 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: make a few IDs, and they deploy you to Europe. 228 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: The interesting thing is then Twiman takes your name, they 229 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: give it to European authorities, and European authorities look for 230 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,079 Speaker 1: you to wrap you up or maybe do it the 231 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: tactic and they miss it. But it looks like the 232 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 1: Talleman gave it an advance, but that person was a flunky. 233 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: So let's ignore the flunkies. Now, if you're really good, 234 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 1: there's different routes you can go. So one route is 235 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: just the suicide bomber training. So suicide bomber training now 236 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 1: is six months. It's pretty crazy. You're on ecstasy. You 237 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: learn how to make kind of these invisible bombs, and 238 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 1: then you learn how to make a bunch of other IDs. 239 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: You obviously go through months first of an doctrination. It's 240 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: a lot. One of the biggest suicide bomber training camps 241 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 1: is actually at Chapman Post Base. They trained twenty five 242 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: hundred external suicide bombers at a time, so every single 243 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: one of the twenty five hundred is leaving Afghanistan. Think 244 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 1: about that. It's very scary now. Now, then there's other things, 245 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: and really we just call it advanced urban warfare because 246 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 1: that's what they're calling it. But it's like CQB or whatever. 247 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 1: Now these are more like ground assault teams, is the 248 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: best way to put it. So they go through a 249 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: variety of things. It can be driving training, they learn 250 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: to make a ton of different ITDs. Obviously, they also 251 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: are forced to learn the invisible bomb, and then a 252 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: lot of thing is movement tactics inside buildings, they assault 253 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: things like they practice on like complexes or they be 254 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 1: tend it's like a church or a school. Remember, we 255 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: left our shoot houses there, so I know in your 256 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: head you know where exactly they're practicing. Maybe too, you 257 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: can explain that to people because it's hard. People talk 258 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: about weapons left behind, but it's like, no, we left 259 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: like the best training facilities in the world and they're 260 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: using that. So that's kind of just your basic Hey, 261 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: your first year in terras camp. 262 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 2: Wow, it's almost like a selection, right, It's like your 263 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: buds or your selection or whatever it is. And then 264 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 2: as as you prove your worth and value, now you 265 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 2: move into those those more significant plot right right, and 266 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 2: and if if you were it's interesting there is It 267 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 2: almost felt like there was a hierarchy of the plots. Right. 268 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 2: There's the initial like stabbing, the killing someone with, ramming 269 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: into people with cars like in New Orleans, you know, 270 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 2: real basic stuff. And then you have the bomber, which 271 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 2: you know is singular in nature. But then there's that 272 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 2: that October seventh Mumbai assault team that works in conjunction, 273 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 2: and that that for me is just like whoa, that's 274 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 2: a another level that you know they're going to be 275 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 2: able to get really the impact that they're hoping that 276 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 2: they received from those types of those types of operations 277 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 2: for sure. 278 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's actually a very interesting point the selection process 279 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: because I can just talk to a few things we've seen. 280 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: In some cases, we've really seen Hamza bin Lad and 281 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: choose someone, and in those cases it was mostly a 282 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: second generation Terrists. His father was famous, so he gets 283 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: chosen for an operation. We have one recently like that, 284 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: he's leading one in the Middle East. His father was 285 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: a very very famous Egyptian. Okay, so that's one category. 286 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: There's another category when you prove yourself right on the 287 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: battle and you know you're proving grounds, and then you 288 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: move up and what they're doing in that case, you 289 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: kind of move up into like an elite class and 290 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: you get to meet with scifol Audel who is the 291 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: mastermind of this home landplot. You know, very famous Egyptian 292 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: former military there, and those are kind of that smaller 293 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: group more important. Then there is the piece where people 294 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: get to meet with homs of bin Laden. So there 295 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 1: has some that got to sit down and be blessed 296 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: by Hams of bin Laden. We don't know if it's 297 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: like they have set commanders leading on the ground here 298 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: and then obviously, as we know, the airplane suicide bombers 299 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: have always been special. Osama bin Laden put out his 300 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: video the Man Mahattan raid video when he went in 301 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: and actually chose the twenties, so those have always been 302 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: a top priority. So did Hams actually meet with them. 303 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 1: We're not sure that which pockets, but he did sit 304 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: down and bless some of them. So there are hierarchies. 305 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: Now that's just on the al Qaeda side. There are 306 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: also hierarchies on the ISIS side, so ices for the 307 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: whole lamp thought the best ones are chosen by a 308 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: guy named Rajab Salaudin, so he's basically the military general 309 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: for ISIS course on province. But some of them get 310 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: to meet Sana Uhagafari, the head of it, who blesses them. 311 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: Now this is the people who train in Afghanistan. There's 312 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,679 Speaker 1: also training in Syria, okay, and in Syria has similar pipelines, 313 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 1: so there's an ISIS pipeline and you basically fall under 314 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: isis's military commission. It was Abdolamaki. If you don't know him, 315 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: we killed him in a strike in March in Iraq, 316 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 1: so he was re running that piece of the training pipeline. 317 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 1: And he was actually connected to Jager in New Orleans, 318 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: so he ran job or cell from Syria. Now, then 319 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: there's a whole nother pipeline under Abu Muhammad al Juani, 320 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: the new president of Syria, and they're kind of like 321 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: a lot of the HTS camps and so they go 322 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: through HTS's pipeline and then they're deployed essentially from Syria 323 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: but HTS. So it's really interesting. There's a number of 324 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 1: senior leaders at the top, and the plot is approved 325 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 1: by a Kaida Shura and Isi Shura. We've never had 326 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: a plot like this ever to exist. 327 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 2: That were that were in they were communicating in conjunction. 328 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 2: It's almost like the aspiration of the Grand Caliphate is emerging, right, 329 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,239 Speaker 2: and you know, and you know, my assumption is that 330 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 2: it takes place and out of that place becomes this 331 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 2: ultra organization, right that that is all encompassing, and then 332 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 2: that can be the rallying kai for the next revelue 333 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 2: or the next into fodder or whatever you wanted to 334 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 2: crawl it. 335 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to talk quick about that. Though, so 336 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 1: they have a real caliphate plan now in their minds. 337 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: They're moving very aggressively on this. Obviously, Iran as the 338 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 1: first country in the caliphate, even though it's not exactly 339 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 1: affected by them. Afghanistans a second. Syria is the third. 340 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 1: They're hoping to make Somalia the fourth, and then they're 341 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: looking Bokina, Fassa, Libya, and then they have a plan 342 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: just like we saw in Syria, for Iraq. So when 343 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: they trained for the Syrian Blitzkreen, they changed for an 344 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 1: Iraqi one. So that is an upcoming plot. So to 345 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: the terrorists that are winning and they have pieces of 346 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: their caliphate back and they believe they're going to aggressively 347 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 1: take more countries. And even if we don't think they will, 348 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: they do. And we have to remember they're using that 349 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: and they're excited by that. 350 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 3: Wow. 351 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 2: Well all right, all right, how do they once they've 352 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 2: getten chosen, they've gone through selection, they've gotten their training, 353 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,640 Speaker 2: how do they make it to the United States? Because 354 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 2: I think a lot of people right now the borders 355 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 2: are shut down, we've cut it all off. We're good 356 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 2: to go. There's no way they can slip through. We're 357 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 2: good what it's military on the southern border. How do 358 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 2: they get through? How do they get over here? 359 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean there's a number of ways. There's obviously 360 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 1: rat lines. It could be from Afghanistan, Iran, Turkey, and 361 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 1: we've even seen them from o Libya. So the Terrists 362 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: kind of go to one of them and they launch off. 363 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: Most of the time they launch off and they go 364 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: to Latin America and come up. Sometimes they launch off 365 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: and they get official visa, so they might go through 366 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: Europe and maybe be Fujisa at first, and then they 367 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: might come through Canada and come in legally. Or we 368 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: have had terrists evacuated by the US government who are 369 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 1: non afghan as Afghans in the process. So we also 370 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 1: evacuated a number of these Al kaidan Isis figures ourselves. 371 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: Our government put them on our military basis and Rodenstein 372 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: and Cutter and brought them here, which is going to 373 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 1: blow the American people's minds when we have dead terraces 374 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: and they ended up being shepherded out by the US government. 375 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: So there's multiple processes they prefer they can legal. Now. 376 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: Another thing is is we always focus on Afghanistan, but 377 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: remember there is also a special immigrant visa pipeline for 378 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: Iraq Syria. I mean sorry, ISIS has also used the 379 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: Iraq pipeline and sent ISIS members through that sieve process. 380 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:57,679 Speaker 1: So it's not just the Afghanistan process that's compromised, it 381 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: is also the Iraqi. Now I just want to explain 382 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: to you how this compromise works really quick. Okay, So 383 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 1: if you're if you're a normal person, is pretty cheap, 384 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: maybe eight or nine thousand. You can get like fake 385 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: HR letters that let's just pay Bogroom because everyone to 386 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 1: talk about it. You worked at Bogroom for a year 387 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: as a cook. They fill it out, they submit it, 388 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 1: So it's pretty cheap if you have no criminal background. 389 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: If you're ISIS, it costs kind of between like ten 390 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: thousand and nineteen thousand. You pay for this paperwork to 391 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: come here. If you're all kind of costs between twenty 392 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: and forty thousand. You get fake documents, but they're real 393 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: and you can come into a legal US process. That's 394 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: just fine. Now here's why it's so easy to exploit. 395 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 1: For some reason, the US government made the standard that 396 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: you only had to work one year. Ever for our 397 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: government in Afghanistan. Think about that when I was in 398 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: the CIA for many years, I went overseas to this 399 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 1: one location and we had a really great squared away local. 400 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: After twenty years, CIA gave him a SIV, which makes sense. 401 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: Long time, long vetted, long started. Yep, these year ones. 402 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: People don't know them, they're not vetted. You could have 403 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: any real job in these military basis. So it's such 404 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,360 Speaker 1: a broken system. There's also a lot of corruption. There's 405 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,160 Speaker 1: Americans who took money to write fake letters, et cetera. 406 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: All these contract companies who are based in afghanistano taking 407 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: money from Al Kaida and ISIS. So it's a real 408 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 1: compromise pipeline. 409 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 2: Wow, all right, so they make it over through all 410 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 2: those variables once they get in. I mean, and I 411 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,879 Speaker 2: think you know, we there was just a hearing on 412 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 2: Capitol Hill, I think last week or the week before 413 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 2: where you know, a congress person identified that out of 414 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 2: the four hundred thousand missing kids, they've identified like two 415 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty thousand of them, and forty plus thousand 416 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 2: of those have been trafficked, have been sold into slex 417 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 2: Savory and all this, and you know, but that's after 418 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 2: the fact, taking it, you know, trying to track it down. 419 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 2: What is the process they get here and then where 420 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 2: are they released? 421 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:08,400 Speaker 3: Where do they go? 422 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 2: How do they begin to integrate or assimilate into you know, 423 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 2: that covert action. 424 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, so at least what we've seen from the few 425 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: cell members. So we found about fifteen terrats so far 426 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: in the United States, So I'm basing on a small population, 427 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: but they all are involved in the upcoming plot. Okay, 428 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: so they haven't done an action yet. Now, what we've 429 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 1: learned from them is most of them did come illegally 430 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: in the last few years. So they come in and 431 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: then they go to a certain point, right, certain cities 432 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: have kind of like a welcome point, is the best 433 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 1: way to put it. And they go there and they 434 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 1: already have a job lined up. They already kind of 435 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 1: join their cell, and they have the community involved around 436 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 1: them as part of their Terra cell. So they don't 437 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,120 Speaker 1: come here as a one off and have to make 438 00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: it work. It's all set and ready for them. Now 439 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: when they come here, they have lots of times a 440 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: regular cover job. But a lot of people call them sleepers, thinking, oh, 441 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 1: they're just waiting until the date of the attack, but no, 442 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: they all have something they're supposed to do. Some like 443 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 1: their job is really to make IDs, like this guy 444 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: just makes pipe bombs, this guy just makes sticky bombs, 445 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: this guy just makes suicide. That's and that's their job 446 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: for months and months and months. There's chemicals. Unfortunately, there's 447 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: a chemical piece of this. Your job is in the 448 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: chemical lab. There's surveillance, counter surveillance, a lot of intelligence collection. 449 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: Member they want to go into veteran communities. Well, a 450 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,360 Speaker 1: piece of the part of going into veteran communities there 451 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: are certain vedorans they are interested in targeting, so as 452 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,959 Speaker 1: you can imagine, they need to get their pattern of life, 453 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: those type of things. So there is a lot of 454 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: work going on by sleeper cells, and some would have 455 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: been in country two years doing these processes, and so 456 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 1: people need to understand and they're well employed, they're active. Now. 457 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 1: Another piece that's really fascinating is some of them have 458 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: a job to where they have to build the cell 459 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: within the United States. They have to bring in more 460 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: cell members recruited on your soil, which is very very fascinating. 461 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 1: But also those should be easier to find because they're 462 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:23,959 Speaker 1: actually making outreach, they're retreating people, et cetera. So so 463 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: just to let you know, the sleepers are very very active. 464 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know, I think you know when we 465 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 2: see those those ideas of you know, dearborn Michigan that 466 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 2: have you know, the streets are covered with midday call 467 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 2: and they block the streets and you're like, all right, 468 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:45,360 Speaker 2: then it's it's the local moss. That's the traditional place. 469 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 2: Is that if if you're if you're in quote sleeper cell, 470 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 2: are you going to facilitate or utilize the cultural pockets 471 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 2: within these different cities or will they be in the 472 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,239 Speaker 2: will will they be unique? Will they be you know, 473 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 2: the one or two people living in an apartment you know, 474 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:10,679 Speaker 2: in some random city away from those larger pockets of 475 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: what you know, American citizens will be like, oh well 476 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 2: that's a unique pocket of foreigners. 477 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 3: That is what it is. 478 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 2: Right Like in Portland, there's a large contingency of Somali's 479 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 2: right wherever it is. Is that what they utilize to 480 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 2: help foster not only the financing but the relationships for 481 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 2: to be employed. Also the ability the outreach community outreach 482 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 2: to bring people in. 483 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 3: Is that or is it ultra covert, low profile stuff. 484 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, First off, they wanted to do the complete opposite 485 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 1: of nine to eleven. So they're not going to put 486 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 1: like three people in a small town. And then people 487 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: like these guys are strange, they're not fitting in, they're 488 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: not joining anything, they don't seem to be getting jobs. 489 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 1: Like that's over right. So they are all in communities 490 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 1: where they make sense that it doesn't mean they're and 491 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: fully Muslim communities or housing of course. So because remember 492 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,400 Speaker 1: these are gonna be very westernize people. So this isn't 493 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: gonna be someone who comes off as a very extreme 494 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: as lawness, right, that's not his cover. So he's gonna 495 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: be able to hang out to New Orleans just fine. Right, 496 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: So people have to stop focusing on they're in these 497 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 1: Muslim only communities, like that's like just not how it's working. 498 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: Especially the ethnicity that I know here, like the Somalie 499 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 1: I know that's here is not in one of the 500 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: smaller communities, right, So you know just from the backgrounds, 501 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: and again it's not like different terrorist groups are go 502 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:44,199 Speaker 1: in certain ways. They really are intermixed. And what I 503 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:48,360 Speaker 1: feel a lot of location is based on is the 504 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,439 Speaker 1: skill set of what they're in charge of doing or 505 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: what piece of the plot is there. So you know, 506 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: so if they're gonna be the vbid guy, they got 507 00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 1: to go into the part of the country where they're 508 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: going to make the vbids. Obviously, if you're the suicide bomber, 509 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 1: let's say you're the suicide bomb in aviation, would you're 510 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: going to go near where the first pub airport is 511 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 1: right for your operation? So those so it's based more 512 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: on the operational strategy. And then you're in a community. 513 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: Of course, the where you blend in and makes sense. 514 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 1: Now there aren't little tells that have always been there. 515 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 1: So one thing al Qaeda always does is they're still stripped. 516 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: So if you have let's say it's a safe house, 517 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: it's just gonna be an apartment. And there's rules involved 518 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: in the safe house. One is women never come to 519 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: the safe house, right, so you got these young, good looking, 520 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 1: educated guys, a few of them always go to this 521 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: building and never bring a woman, never bring a child. 522 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: It's kind of a tell. I don't know. If you 523 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: read over the Manchester Manual, no, I don't know, if 524 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: it's like fifteen or twenty years ago. It got pulled 525 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: out of an AUF and Britain. You can get a 526 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: really good copy of it a line because that was 527 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: using a court case. But there's a piece in there 528 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: that actually walks through what they look for when they 529 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: get a safe house. But it's really just an apartment, 530 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 1: and it's actually really interested and fascinating. I think people 531 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: should read it because they still look for like their 532 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: safe houses the same way. And there are some unique 533 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: features like especially two doors, like you know, which in 534 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 1: a lot of apartments at one door. So there's also 535 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: weird things like you can overlook courtyards or pools they 536 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: don't want you to see women and all these type 537 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: of things. So there's all these interesting things. They have 538 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: also multiple documents, right, multiple identities. So I do think 539 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: people should look at that because you can learn a 540 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: lot from it. 541 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 3: That's fascinating. 542 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 2: That's the type of thing I think people are hungry for, right, 543 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 2: They're trying to figure out, all right, if because you 544 00:29:55,880 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 2: put in any small municipality and certainly the counterterear and 545 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 2: budgets have you know, shrunk into almost nil. And you know, 546 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 2: I mean I remember in the heyday when I was 547 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 2: at Blackwater, you know, we'd had three thousand people a 548 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 2: day training at the you know, at the facility. You know, 549 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 2: and most of those were small community law enforcement agencies 550 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 2: because they got some federal funding to be on the 551 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,719 Speaker 2: look well that's not happening right now. So how is 552 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 2: the message being received in your mind or what you 553 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 2: know on the smaller municipalities, the smaller agencies. The place 554 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 2: that has you know, two hundred police officers and you 555 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 2: know a small SWAT contingency is you know, is what 556 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 2: are they doing in preparation for all of this? 557 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, honestly, I've met a lot of law 558 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: enforcement organizations since January, very large ones, the very small ones. 559 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: And it's more than based on if they had like 560 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: some go getters and apartment that like press their leadership 561 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: and like this is important. We got to get briefed 562 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: on this. There's a lot of SWAT teams who don't 563 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: have the funding to do it, but they're changing their tactics. 564 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: Obviously I'm not going to explain how so Terear Stone now, 565 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: but anyway, so it's really a lot of go getters. Unfortunately, 566 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: we started off, as you can imagine a lot of 567 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: people in law envoys and being like, well is it 568 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: going to happen in my town? What I like to 569 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: say is well, what percentages of your town with veterans? Right, Like, 570 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: that's where you start. Also, if it's going to go 571 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 1: on for multiple days, potentially, well are you going to 572 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: get called to backup? All far away? Are these cities 573 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: from you? Now, we don't know a lot of the cities. 574 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: We know some of the state's isis is focused on 575 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: and then the AQAP video has a few cities, but 576 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean that's where they'll be. But there's a 577 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: lot of focus on Pennsylvania in this threat a lot. 578 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: If you are in any city in Pennsylvania, you should 579 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: be preparing and in my opinion, right so, there are 580 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: certain states so that have been very forward landing. Florida's 581 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 1: very forward landing, Alabama, Georgia, the Carolinas, Tennessee. We've been 582 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: up to New York multiple times. So luckily there are pockets. 583 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: The problem is, until mister Kent put out this memo 584 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 1: this week, a lot of them didn't have anything to 585 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 1: stand on when they went to try to sell, hey, 586 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 1: we need to move funds to do this kind of training. 587 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 1: So a lot of them were doing like, we need 588 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: to do different kinds of active shooter training and this 589 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: is really smart. So what they did, and I think 590 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: people should do this. If you don't get support, you say, 591 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: we need to do an active shooter drill, but we 592 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: need to do an active shooter drill with three shooters 593 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: hitting two locations. Right, very simple change, but it does 594 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 1: help with this threat and you don't have to say 595 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: it's kind of tears and really and unfortunately, right, you 596 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 1: got to play other ruses to sometimes get money or 597 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: the funding or the support. But we've seen a lot 598 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: of people do really creative things. 599 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 2: That's fascinating to me because you know, that's the one 600 00:32:58,440 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 2: plot that I think is. 601 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 3: The one that resonates with me. 602 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 2: It's it's the one I'll never forget when Mumbai took place, 603 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 2: you know, not that you know, I'm praising the tech, 604 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 2: but the tactics in that were the best I had 605 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 2: ever seen. Right, they were just ten guys where you 606 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 2: can havoc holding the city hostage for fit well with 607 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 2: fifty eight hours or whatever it was. And if imagine 608 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 2: that with you know, in in you know, a smaller 609 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 2: city of two hundred and fifty thousand, three hundred thousand people, 610 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 2: you know, a smaller police force, you know, not a 611 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 2: lot of big government entities that can respond. 612 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 3: You know. 613 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 2: It's it's like that's the thing that is really the 614 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 2: most alarming. In particular, if people like you're saying, had 615 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 2: a year, year and a half of training in preparation, 616 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 2: then you know, access to the other things because a 617 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 2: lot of things I think people are like, well, where 618 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 2: are they going to get their guns? 619 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 3: How are they going to get their tactical equipment? 620 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: Yeah? 621 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, it's like how are they going to get 622 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 2: their tactical equipment? Where are they training? You know, and 623 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 2: it's like it's just not realistic. And that's what I 624 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 2: hear a lot of people and read a lot of 625 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 2: people as I you know, comb through your trolls when 626 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 2: you make your posts and you know and want to 627 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 2: go after I'm like, you don't know what you're talking about, 628 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,759 Speaker 2: but uh, you know, that's what I think people are 629 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 2: kind of, uh what I'm concerned of. And and so 630 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 2: how do people in their local community, civilians, what what 631 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 2: can they do to kind of be heads up, head 632 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 2: on a swivel, increase their essay and then if one 633 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 2: of those incidents does take place and they're engaged in 634 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 2: around it, you know, how do you how do you 635 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 2: I mean Obviously, I think all the veterans that they're 636 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,359 Speaker 2: going to be going. Most veterans that I know, at 637 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 2: least my friends all carry you know. Now I know 638 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 2: a lot of dudes that are actually carrying backpacks with 639 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 2: you know, suppressed automatic or some automatic you know, long 640 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 2: guns in there. You know, what is the deconfliction and 641 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 2: what is the reaction that people can have in those 642 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,399 Speaker 2: searches in those situations. 643 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, your hope is to not be on 644 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: the X or in the location where it happens. What 645 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:07,399 Speaker 1: I like to try to tell people is you focuses 646 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 1: on your family emergency plan and being home and protecting 647 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,359 Speaker 1: your family or at least protecting your neighborhood. Right, have 648 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,879 Speaker 1: a neighborhood group, watch the block off the neighborhood if 649 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,720 Speaker 1: something is happening, and then your police handle the city 650 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 1: in the roads, your sheriff hand or you know, the 651 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: main highways, et cetera. Now, as you said, we're gonna 652 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: have a lot of people rolling on this attack if 653 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: it happens, We're just going to because we've had war 654 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 1: fighters training for twenty years. So what we've been at 655 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: least trying to do in Florida and we're pushing in 656 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:44,320 Speaker 1: other states is have those meetings and conversations now, especially 657 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 1: with the veteran organizations in your town. Know who they are, 658 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: because we are a problem with the terrorists might dress 659 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: as law enforcement. So now when you see this veteran 660 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 1: you've never met, you know, well trained, well armed, he 661 00:35:56,560 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: looks like law enforcement. Is he an attacker? Is? There's 662 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of confusion in this. So we're 663 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: telling everyone make all the relationships you can now, right, 664 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 1: bring community into it now because you're in a better spot. Also, 665 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: as you can imagine, let's say they hit the hospital, right, 666 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,359 Speaker 1: and then they do a second round. Well, now you 667 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: can't use the hospital. Well, did you have conversation with 668 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,239 Speaker 1: the local schools, the local churches. Did you stop by 669 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: pile medical supplies elsewhere? Do you even have the blood 670 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 1: levels where they need to be at the blood banks 671 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: in your town. There are very very simple things that 672 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 1: will help in any emergency that people are not doing, 673 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 1: and we need to get citizens involved. Right. I get 674 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 1: my house in order, I get my kids school in order, 675 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: I get my church in order, and then I work 676 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: with the mayor, the police chief or to get the 677 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,479 Speaker 1: community in order and I think that's the best way 678 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 1: we at least handle how we protect and defend ourselves. Now, 679 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,320 Speaker 1: when something like this happens the scale it's going to 680 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: happen at it's going to be like Not eleven. You 681 00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 1: didn't know what Not eleven was, but you went the 682 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 1: hell home And that's what we really that's what you 683 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,359 Speaker 1: need to really focus on. The majority of people are 684 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,279 Speaker 1: going to need to keep themselves and the people they 685 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: love safe. 686 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 3: Awesome, that's fantastic. All right, last question. 687 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 2: You know, obviously we saw the President of Syria on 688 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 2: stage with General Petraeus recently, and the acknowledgment of of 689 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,440 Speaker 2: of this is is for me in particular, I know 690 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 2: for you it's I've I've listened to you. I know 691 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 2: all my friends are just an absolute, you know, astonished 692 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:38,760 Speaker 2: disbelief that this is taking place. What, in your opinion, 693 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:45,680 Speaker 2: is the right way for the government to begin to 694 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,839 Speaker 2: acknowledge this is real and then and then you know, 695 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 2: to really what what would you like to see with 696 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 2: them working with in and around the IC community, but 697 00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 2: all the other government agent, Homeland Bureau all that, what 698 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 2: would you like to start to see take place? 699 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean our government first has to be honest, 700 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,280 Speaker 1: right al Kaeda is going to do this massive attack, 701 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: then they have to cut off the pieces of a misinformation. 702 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: That's obviously the information coming from the Taliban and the 703 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: information coming from the new Seyan government. This is now 704 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,319 Speaker 1: tainted intelligence and we need to handle it as such. 705 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 1: Even if you take it from them, fine, but it 706 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 1: needs to be marked. So if I'm an analyst in 707 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 1: DIA and I read the CIA report, it says on 708 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: it the CIA got it from the Talband, because that 709 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: is not happening right then, So you have to do that. 710 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 1: You also have to have the real discussion the terrorists. No, 711 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:41,840 Speaker 1: we collect plenty of things over the phones. Most of 712 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 1: them got captured on their phones, so they actually sit 713 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 1: and do planning and strategy meetings for what they're going 714 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 1: to say on the phone, so NSA can collect it. 715 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: So we have to stop saying NSA information is coroboration, right, 716 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 1: because that is also tainted. We have to be very honest. 717 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 1: It's hard for people in the intelligence community to admit 718 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 1: fooled by terrorists, but we have been. Doctor Aiman al Zaarihir. 719 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 1: He fooled us with the coast bombing. He fooled us 720 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 1: with Hams and sad Bin Laden like there are real 721 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: fashionable things where the intelligence community failed. Now this is 722 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:14,479 Speaker 1: just another one. So we first started to be honest 723 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: about that. I do think with a Tulsa and Joe 724 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 1: at the Helm, I do think they don't have the 725 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,399 Speaker 1: hoot Hubris, and I think they'll care more to protect Americans. 726 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,760 Speaker 1: And now they've got to get to everybody else on board. 727 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,959 Speaker 1: So that's one thing. The other part is the only 728 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: way to authority terrorist attack is you got to be 729 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 1: proactive against it, which we haven't been. One way to 730 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,239 Speaker 1: be proactive against it is you've got to go after 731 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 1: the masterminds. I know, no one's gonna put Julani in 732 00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,320 Speaker 1: the ex right now, so unfortunately we're gonna have to 733 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: ignore probably the Seria piece of it, which I don't 734 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,759 Speaker 1: think we should be doing. But we should be going 735 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: after sciphil Auto. There's no argument siphial Auto is the 736 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: most one of the most wanted terrafts in the world. 737 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:55,400 Speaker 1: And you know Sencom is actually ignoring information being provided 738 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 1: to them on his location. They are not actively targeting him, 739 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: which is crazy. He's the mastermind of this plot. Obviously, 740 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,400 Speaker 1: they have to be honest about the big Laden sons 741 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 1: start collecting on them. Think about it. They have not 742 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,359 Speaker 1: collected against Sabin Laden since two thousand and nine. That 743 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:14,399 Speaker 1: is an intelligence failure like you could never believe. So 744 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 1: there has to be a lot of honesty. You got 745 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 1: to say, hey, we mess this up. Let's get it 746 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 1: straight out and SAIDCOM has not been honest about the 747 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 1: ISIS fight. I don't know if we need this Secretary 748 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,879 Speaker 1: of War to say, hey, I'm gonna do some sort 749 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: of counterintelligence review, just like the CIA chief needs to 750 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 1: do a counter intelligence view of the Afghanistan department. But 751 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 1: something is wrong now. Is it just bad reporting? Is 752 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:41,359 Speaker 1: it these relationships with the terrorists, et cetera. I don't 753 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: know what it is, but we have to find the 754 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:47,439 Speaker 1: root causes of some of these problems. Lastly, we brought 755 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 1: in all these terrorists. We got to move them out faster. 756 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:54,800 Speaker 1: We have to prioritize at least their nationalities. Right now, 757 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:59,359 Speaker 1: I'm not saying block everybody from those countries, but we 758 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:05,240 Speaker 1: know there's certain passports at a compromise Afghanistan, Syria, Turkey, Libya. 759 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, every single person with one of those passports 760 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,919 Speaker 1: that'll be in rooms all week long being questioned because 761 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 1: I don't even know if there's people in Afghan passports 762 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,399 Speaker 1: are Afghan, well, I want to Afghan sitting in front 763 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 1: of them, talking to them. You know, let's do some 764 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:19,359 Speaker 1: in the hands betting. 765 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 2: From your lips, Sarah, from your lips to his ears. Man, 766 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,360 Speaker 2: I just hope people are listening to you. I know 767 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 2: your audience has certainly grown. I just can't thank you 768 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 2: enough for having the courage. Obviously it doesn't always put 769 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:39,880 Speaker 2: you in the safest space, but I know you're protected, 770 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 2: I know you're smart, and I know you're watching your 771 00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,399 Speaker 2: six all the time. I just can't thank you enough 772 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 2: for spending time with my audience and me. God bless 773 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 2: you for what you're doing. And just keep it up. 774 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 3: Thank you, Thanks, thanks for having me. What's up, everybody? 775 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:00,760 Speaker 2: I am here to talk to you about out fear. 776 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 3: Well. 777 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:03,719 Speaker 2: You know, one of the things that I hear so 778 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 2: much when I travel the country, speaking to thousands of 779 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 2: people every year is people want to always know was 780 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 2: I afraid? And they asked me, you know, were you 781 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 2: afraid in combat? Were you afraid in training? And you know, 782 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 2: I'm here to tell you that those are really intimate questions. 783 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 2: Because the answer is holl yes, I was afraid. I 784 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 2: was afraid all the time. Imagine every single day you 785 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 2: go into work is a day you could die. Well, 786 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:33,799 Speaker 2: you know, it took me a long time to get 787 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 2: comfortable with being able to answer that question. 788 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 3: Sincerely. 789 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,919 Speaker 2: I used to blow it off in some snapper head responsible, like, well, 790 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,279 Speaker 2: have you ever had a three hundred pound boat on 791 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 2: your head and stayed awake for five straight days with 792 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,520 Speaker 2: some instructor screaming in your face all day? 793 00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 3: And they'd be like no, And I go, well, you'd 794 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 3: be afraid, do right? 795 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 2: And I kind of blew it off in this kind 796 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:58,440 Speaker 2: of snapper headway, as I said. And the reality is 797 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:03,880 Speaker 2: people actually want to know. With the assassination of Charlie Kirk, 798 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:07,719 Speaker 2: with an eminent terrorist attack threat, and on the homeland 799 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 2: with financial chaos on the precipice of thirty eight trillion 800 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,240 Speaker 2: dollars in debt, you know, there's a lot of fear 801 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:20,280 Speaker 2: going on around the world and most importantly in our country. 802 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:24,239 Speaker 3: And so what I've done, in conjunction with. 803 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 2: The past thirty five years of me really trying to explore, 804 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 2: experience and research everything that I could I could within 805 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,520 Speaker 2: the human condition to try and understand what drives success 806 00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:43,359 Speaker 2: and what ultimately creates failures with teams or individuals. The 807 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 2: first place that I wanted to focus on was embracing fear, 808 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 2: because there's no such thing as fearless. Right. If you 809 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 2: hear somebody tell you, Oh, that person's fearless, you know 810 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:58,439 Speaker 2: what I say to that, it doesn't exist. Right, You've 811 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:02,320 Speaker 2: got a limbic system. We've got these three beautiful components 812 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 2: of your brain called the amigndalism hip campus. Those produce 813 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 2: stress hormones. Therefore, you have fear plus. Fear has been 814 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:14,359 Speaker 2: integrated into our consciousness since well since consciousness began. Right, 815 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 2: Fear is ultimately the thing that enables you to either survive, thrive, 816 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 2: or die. It's just built into the whole capacity. 817 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 3: On top of. 818 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 2: That, you learn fear from the moment you're born. You 819 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 2: learn fear. Don't touch the burning stove, don't cross the 820 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:33,880 Speaker 2: street without looking twice, don't go around the freak who's 821 00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:36,879 Speaker 2: trying to you know, suck you into the van. 822 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:37,440 Speaker 3: Right. 823 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 2: We have all these things in our lives that are 824 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 2: integrated into how we process fear, how we experience fear, 825 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 2: how we feel fear, how fear affects us in our 826 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:54,880 Speaker 2: daily routines. Well, after a considerable amount of time spent 827 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 2: trying to understand fear itself, I spent about two years 828 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:02,080 Speaker 2: really digging into fear. I came up with the idea 829 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 2: that fear cannot be defeated obviously, so what do we 830 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 2: have to do.
