During the 5:00 p.m. Eastern hour of MSNBC’s live coverage concerning the terror attacks in Belgium, breaking news anchor and former NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams shot back at State Department spokesman John Kirby when Kirby claimed that the attacks in Brussels illustrate why Islamic terrorist groups like ISIS are on the run.

Kirby prefaced this bizarre spin from the Obama administration by ruling that the U.S. and allies should take threats from ISIS “very seriously” seeing as how “they have threatened western targets now for a long, long time and it's a threat that we are all too familiar with sadly.”
