The point I made at the forum is how do we highlight this? Do we sanitize what's happening? The fact of the matter, the reason we're concentrating on ISIS today is because ISIS published a video of them beheading an American, and that is what it took to raise the awareness of the American public. to become as outraged. And this is after 200,000 Syrians have been slaughtered and millions displaced. So if we're going to really address this effectively, we need to get the American people on our side. (03:37–03:46)
