ROTC Student Responds to Horrific Terrorist Attack | Official Preview
An ROTC student recounts surviving a terrorist attack by Muhammad Jalo, a former National Guard member who was radicalized by ISIS and released early from prison. The student and others physically subdued the attacker, preventing further casualties.
Summary
This transcript covers an interview with an ROTC student who survived a terrorist attack on his campus. The attacker, 36-year-old Muhammad Jalo, entered an ROTC classroom and opened fire after shouting 'Allah Akbar,' killing a veteran army pilot who had survived combat missions in the Middle East. The student provides firsthand details of the attack, describing how he and other cadets physically fought the gunman, with one cadet stabbing him and the student himself taking out the attacker's eye before they subdued and killed him. The transcript reveals Jalo's background as a former Virginia Army National Guard member who was radicalized by al-Qaeda and ISIS online materials between 2015-2016. He had previously been arrested in 2016 for attempting to purchase weapons and donate money to ISIS, serving only 8.5 years of an 11-year sentence before being released. The student expresses frustration with politicians and government policies, particularly regarding funding that he believes indirectly supports groups that radicalize attackers like Jalo. The interview concludes with the host presenting the student with a firearm as recognition for his heroic actions.
