Oh, biggest threat to America.
Everybody's going to give you something different, right?
Um, biggest threat to America right now, the one Fox news will tell you is Islam.
Of course.
Yep.
I don't believe that at all.
Um, personally, I think, uh, you know what we have 0.5% of the U S population is, is Islamic.
Um,
Is Islamic extremism a problem around the world?
Yes.
I went and fought the wars, but at the same time, I tell people I went and fought the global war on terror in Afghanistan as a Green Beret.
Everybody that I fought the war with was Muslim.
Outside of my 11 other teammates, we lead 50, 60 partner force to go fight.
As Green Berets, we're not like Navy SEALs or Rangers or infantrymen.
where we go out as a huge American military unit, Green Berets, there's 12 guys and we actually train a partner force or a host nations force, Afghanis, Iraqis, and we actually lead them out in combat.
So there's 12 of us on the ground with 60, 70 Afghans as we go fight the Taliban or Iraqis to go fight ISIS or whatnot.
And so
With that, I spent my entire career fighting alongside Muslims, Afghanis, Saudis, Kurds.
So is Islam the biggest threat to America?
I just don't see it.
