Tuesday on “The Alan Colmes Show,” retired General Wesley Clark joined Alan to clarify his recent comments about what to do with radicalized Americans, saying that they needed to be treated like prisoners of war. This led to some making the comparison to the internment camps that were set up in America during World War II. Gen. Clark explained his comments were misinterpreted in this way:

GEN CLARK: You’ve got to have a counter-recruitment program. If the counter recruitment program doesn’t work, that is to say if you don’t know who is looking at these Islamic websites, if you don’t know what their reactions are, if you don’t have anybody who can talk them out of it, if they persist in becoming enemies, and wanting to kill people, you’ve got to set up some milestones along that journey for them. And at some point they either get arrested, get treated as terrorists, or they get put in a prisoner of war camp. It’s nothing like what some people on the internet misinterpreted.

Alan and Gen. Clark also discussed about how radicalized Americans can possibly be discovered before the next Chattanooga-like incident happens, why families can be the ones to prevent an attack, and whether there is enough online surveillance to keep track of those who might carry out an attack.
