For all you know, the people that you're targeting

Were the Muslim informants, of which there are many, that would foil the next terrorist attack.

So the middle ground is kind of hard to define geographically.

You can't just put a circle around a mosque and say everyone in there is in the gray zone or the good guy zone or the bad guy zone.

And ISIS understands it.

And so the solution to them is to get governments and citizens.

They call them the enraged crusaders.

You know, bloody us so bad they become enraged crusaders to actively destroy the gray zone themselves by increasing persecution against Muslims in Western lands.

That's an exact quote from the Jihadist magazine.

bigger that i'm i'm missing i think it was a mixture of i mean they would make more money from the other headlines going on with iran um and then depending on which audience you're going to people will care about it but will they care enough to tune in and want to learn more versus something else maybe not so much um it kind of depends on which part of america you're coming from what what that's going to resonate with you um you know to what degree but but more broadly the

I hope Americans hear this and understand that every time you put out a tweet, every interaction you have with a Muslim or talking about Muslims, according to their perspective, that's an ideological battle.

You have a choice in that moment, whether you're going to help the seditionist and jihadist cause by how you treat other people.

Or you're going to hurt it by making our civil society healthier and more loving and stronger.

And that's a choice I hope every American takes very seriously.

I understand you really are on the battlefield.

They all say this.

I mean, they'll say this in their plans and their statements, but there aren't many people aggregating it and putting it all together so everyone sees it.

I personally define the enemy as the global seditionist movement at this point because I think everything is being recalibrated and realigned to where, just like you said, there's elements on, I call it the seditionist left and the seditionist right and then the Islamists that are really just so common now

I don't even call it a horseshoe theory anymore.

I call it the oval theory.
