Excellent 10-Min. on ISIS/Paris on Bill Mayer, w/ Jay Leno, Michael Steele, and Dylan Rattigan - Rec

Mayer sets-up with question: "WHY DO THEY HATE US?" .. and many great points are made by the panel and by Bill.
******HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!*****


The question was posed to panelists Jay Leno, Michael Steele, and Dylan Rattigan. Bill said:

“We don’t have every bit of information, the last body count I heard was over 150. When the Charlie Hebdo thing happened the week after everybody said ‘Je suis Charlie.’ But not really. They didn’t really stick with them… I’m gonna ask you this question that people asked after 9/11, because I don’t think we really know the answer: Why do they hate us?”

The tension was only broken when the panel said nothing to the question posed, and the host laughingly observed:

“I stumped the panel.” ... but then a great 10 minute exchange of views ensued ...

...or the next thing you know, world peace might break-out, and our poor national security, military &
munitions industries would have nothing to justify their obscenely huge budgets. .

Can't have that

no one is perfect, but Rattigan is right more often than not, and that's especially true on big issues

Maher even let them talk while the second guest was being interviewed. Those three guys could take their show on the road.
