Hello, this is Jason Fields, the host of War College.

After the Paris attacks last week, we wanted to talk to an expert about how to stop Islamic State.

So we reached out to Malcolm Nance.

He's a former intelligence operative with decades of experience in the Middle East.

Our discussion leads to some unexpected conclusions.

If you're a regular listener to Moore College, you know we do our best with the audio quality,

but being a topical show, sometimes we book our guests on short notice.

You may hear some background noise at points this week, but I hope you'll agree it's worth it.

Now, here's one informed view on how to destroy Islamic State.

Hello and welcome to a special supplementary edition of War College.

I'm Reuters opinion editor Jason Fields.

And I'm Matthew Gault, contributing editor at Wars Boring.

We're talking today with Malcolm Nance.

Nance is an American special operations veteran, counter-terrorism expert, author of the book,

The Terrorists of Iraq, which was just updated last December, and the executive director of the Terror Asymmetrics

Malcolm, thank you so much for joining us on short notice.
