Krauthammer: ‘In France, You Will Not Hear Calls for Truck Control’

BAIER Let s discuss ░░░░░░░░ running mate question the ░░░░░░░░ here at the convention ░░░░░░░░ also this breaking news ░░░░░░░░ of France with Charles ░░░░░░░░ he joins us live ░░░░░░░░ Washington I want to ░░░░░░░░ with that breaking news ░░░░░░░░ We are now seeing ░░░░░░░░ some 30 people are ░░░░░░░░ to be dead in ░░░░░░░░ France 100 plus injured ░░░░░░░░ this truck apparently plowed ░░░░░░░░ people at the bastille ░░░░░░░░ celebrations there It is ░░░░░░░░ now that this is ░░░░░░░░ terrorist attack There was ░░░░░░░░ exchange of gunfire and ░░░░░░░░ know your thoughts as ░░░░░░░░ look at this That ░░░░░░░░ a huge loss of ░░░░░░░░ in a way that ░░░░░░░░ haven t seen if ░░░░░░░░ fact this is an ░░░░░░░░ terrorist attack KRAUTHAMMER Well ░░░░░░░░ the looking of it ░░░░░░░░ s most likely a ░░░░░░░░ attack A suicide attack ░░░░░░░░ sorts It could have ░░░░░░░░ a truck bomb It ░░░░░░░░ like it was a ░░░░░░░░ technique And it is ░░░░░░░░ likely we ll find ░░░░░░░░ out of course over ░░░░░░░░ days most likely coming ░░░░░░░░ ISIS To put this ░░░░░░░░ context there was a ░░░░░░░░ credible report earlier in ░░░░░░░░ week that ISIS is ░░░░░░░░ its members for defeat ░░░░░░░░ its homeland of the ░░░░░░░░ called caliphate as it ░░░░░░░░ being squeezed on all ░░░░░░░░ and what we might ░░░░░░░░ seeing is the change ░░░░░░░░ the nature of ISIS ░░░░░░░░ a territorial terror organization ░░░░░░░░ going back to the ░░░░░░░░ that Al Qaeda had ░░░░░░░░ being scattered international without ░░░░░░░░ center and yet striking ░░░░░░░░ all sides That would ░░░░░░░░ interesting because ISIS has ░░░░░░░░ this once before The ░░░░░░░░ of which it is ░░░░░░░░ Al Qaeda in Iraq ░░░░░░░░ thoroughly defeated by the ░░░░░░░░ S Surge in 2008 ░░░░░░░░ into Syria regrouped and ░░░░░░░░ what we see now ░░░░░░░░ it is not as ░░░░░░░░ it s going to ░░░░░░░░ away but this could ░░░░░░░░ what the administration has ░░░░░░░░ saying and I think ░░░░░░░░ sounded rather defensive but ░░░░░░░░ could be credible that ░░░░░░░░ is an organization losing ░░░░░░░░ territorial grip and yet ░░░░░░░░ by showing that it ░░░░░░░░ international it s grown ░░░░░░░░ it could act in ░░░░░░░░ decentralizing way.”
