On the threat of terror attacks on the US soil, Clinton
said she will do "everything in my power" to ensure Americans are safer on the streets of San Bernardino or Boston at the end of her presidency than they are today.
She, however, cautioned that achieving this result will be a huge challenge.
"We have got to have an intelligence surge. We have got to get a lot more cooperation out of Europe, out of the Middle East. We have to do a better job of not only collecting and analysing the intelligence we do have, but distributing it much more quickly down the ladder to state and local law enforcement," Clinton said.
" I do not think we are doing as much as we can. We need to work with Silicon Valley. We need to work with our experts in our government. We have got to disrupt, we have got to take them on in the arena of ideas that, unfortunately, pollute and capture the minds of vulnerable people. So we need to wage this war against ISIS from the air, on the ground and online, in cyberspace," Clinton said.
She said the solution does not lie in insulting Muslim- American families but in working with America's Muslim partners to defeat ISIS.
"Going after American-Muslims, defaming a Gold Star family, the family of Captain Khan, making it more difficult for us to have a coalition with Muslim majority nations is not going to help us to succeed in defeating ISIS and protecting our American homeland," she said, a reference to Trump's remarks against Humayun Khan, who lost his life while in Iraq for the US military.
