This took place on the same day of the Paris Massacre, just hrs before the attacks.
The global jihad movement, a multinational, multifaceted and dynamic and increasingly dangerous enterprise animated by the islamic supremacist doctrine of sharia and coming at us emboldened from a lack of strategy by the United States and from much of the Western world.

Partial transcript -ff 23:43 :
Elliot Chodoff: “That was the good news, now we can talk about the bad news, right? In many ways, Syria is Libya on steroids – for a few reasons. Before I talk, let me go into the Syrian aspects of it. Syria, I think, is maybe the only place where – from an Israeli perspective – you can stand on a spot on the Golan Heights and the sweep of 120 degrees see Hizballah, al Qaeda, al Nusra, and some 50 jihadi organizations with the Syrian army in the mix in the middle. It’s quite a menu.
Frank (Gaffney) mentioned before, I think the Congressman (Pete Hoekstra) did as well, that there is no strategy. I think there is a good reason for that, & you touched on it. There’s no strategy because there is no objective. There is no objective because there is no definition of who the adversary is what they are doing.
**************compare & contrast that video segment against this recent clip from the HBO’s hit series
“Homeland”
In this scene the character Peter Quinn is asked if our strategy in Syria is working.
Excellent comparison!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
