YouTube Description
as posted by the channelFormer CIA officer warns on #MorningJoe that Trump’s remarks about wanting to “take over” and “own” Gaza could have serious counterterrorism consequences, calling it a “generational counterterrorism nightmare”:
“Trump’s kind of language only is going to galvanize groups that want to kill Americans. And if I was still in the CIA, in the counterterrorism community, I’d be monitoring the Islamic extremist forums, because this is just a tremendous own goal.”
