AI and Disruptive Technologies: Transforming National Security and the Law - What’s Ahead?
G
17:31Glenn GerstellGUEST
And I know you'll be getting into that.
G
17:33Glenn GerstellGUEST
I just want to add one or two more things, which is in addition to having Tom Friedman, we're very fortunate to have Avril Haines as one of the keynote speakers on the evening.
G
17:42Glenn GerstellGUEST
She's the incoming president of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and is, I'm sure, all the podcast hosts.
G
17:48Glenn GerstellGUEST
Listeners know she was the former director of national intelligence, among other things, in the federal government.

J
63:03Josh KleinfeldGUEST
They are working for foreign governments that have malign intent, that are adversaries of ours.
J
63:09Josh KleinfeldGUEST
And they have identified universities as the soft underbelly of our immigration system and a sort of a point of infiltration and counter-ops, propaganda, right? So there is, I mean, Avril Haines, who was Biden's director of national intelligence, said, declassified the fact that Iran was, I'm going to quote her, trying to stoke discord and undermine confidence in our democratic institutions by providing financial and other support to Gaza protests on college campuses.
J
63:46Josh KleinfeldGUEST
Biden's DNI thought it was worth declassifying that critical fact, which was a major act and a sort of contrary to administration act.
J
64:00Josh KleinfeldGUEST
There is so much more there.
The state of the transatlantic security partnership
O
18:04Oana LungescuGUEST
But I think intelligence has been absolutely key from the start, from even before Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
O
18:13Oana LungescuGUEST
And I remember being at NATO at the time and hearing the first briefings from the then US Director of National Intelligence, Avril Haines, who came to Brussels specifically to warn NATO allies and also to brief countries in the EU Russia's real plans and intentions of conquering the whole of Ukraine, taking Kyiv in a couple of days and eliminating the democratic government of Ukraine.
O
18:41Oana LungescuGUEST
So I think the U.S., together with the U.K. and Ukraine, other allies at the time had very good intelligence but also took the unprecedented decision to share so much that had not happened in the past despite you know the ongoing exchanges of intelligence within nato in particular but at that level that was unprecedented and a lot of that intelligence was also shared with ukraine However, what we saw was that some European allies in particular at that time, even though they had the same level of information, the same intelligence was provided to them through NATO, had different analysis of the intelligence because they felt, in particular France and Germany at that time, And Ukraine in a different position, that it was not reasonable for Putin to invade Ukraine.
O
19:38Oana LungescuGUEST
It made no sense.
N
20:49Nicolas VéronHOST
You were in the room where it happened.
N
20:51Nicolas VéronHOST
Did you expect Kyiv to fall in three days? How were your reactions to the development of the initial phases of the full-scale invasion?
O
21:00Oana LungescuGUEST
Well, I can tell you that when I first heard that U.S. briefing by Avril Haines, I felt like a punch in the stomach because it was like the worst possible insight we could get.
O
21:13Oana LungescuGUEST
And Yeah, I think it was hard for us to know what to expect.

Eliana Aiken on the Information War against the Jews
E
35:34Eliana AikenGUEST
And, you know, we've had, um, we've just seen on campus that, like, these, these coalitions are very strong, and, um, the messaging was, was uniquely tailored to create something effective for both of these groups.
E
35:48Eliana AikenGUEST
I mean, to talk more about campus activities, uh, the most recent Ayatollah was, he called campus protesters a branch of the resistance front, and, um, Avril Haines, who is the Director of National Intelligence, um, released, um, a memo saying that Iran had been instigating both paying for protests and instigating protests in the US, um, to make it seem like Americans were pro-Iran.
E
36:22Eliana AikenGUEST
Um, the point of their activity is to make it seem like on the streets people support Iran and the, the Islamic Republic, and the main goal Of this is to make sure that when the US attacks Iran, that the American public, that it looks like there's a backlash.
E
36:47Eliana AikenGUEST
Again, in a democracy, if you can make it look like public opinion is against the actions of the government, the government is probably going to minimize those actions.

Avril.
M
2:56Mike ChurchHOST
Oh, Avril Haines.
M
2:58Mike ChurchHOST
Did they know? And if they did, why did no one take any action? Why have backchannel intelligence agencies been saying that the Israelis and the CIA were the primary sources of financing for Hamas, not the Iranians? You know, Trump's whole bandwagon here of why the war in Iran had to be started and why much of what is happening today has to happen is because the largest state sponsor of terrorism is Iran.
M
3:31Mike ChurchHOST
They're sponsoring the terrorists like Hamas.
