stalemate. a couple of days ago the kurds managed to regain positions unopposed by i.s.i.l. fighters after u.s. air strikes destroyed some of the i.s.i.l. bases. nevertheless, i.s.i.l. controls about 30% of kobane, to the south and the east. no indication that turkey will get further involved in this, apart from providing humanitarian assistance, in terms of housing refugees. u.s. president obama, and turkey's president recep tayyip erdogan talked on the phone, and they'll continue to cooperate on matters regarding the fight against i.s.i.l., but no assurances or guarantees, it will allow the coalition partner to hughes turkey's base as a base to launch military and air assaults in syria and rock. >> bernard smith there. a delegation is in baghdad

every day i open my shop, i think about attack. we shut at midday. after that it is too risky to open. >> this map is angry at the government. >> enough conferences and meetings. i hope the government changes things - but nothing had changed. for us iraqis, it's violence and death. there's no hope in order to calm fears, the ministry of defense is on the pr offensive, issuing the video. they are ready to face challenge. >> shia militias will be important to the defense of baghdad, and told israelis that they are ready to fight. the shia militias mick them nervous. there's a fear that there may be sectarian bloodshed that caused them to go to war. >> sectarian tension is the

issue. dealing with it is the only way to build a lasting piece in the country. sectarianism is a reason for the rise of i.s.i.l. dealing with that is a pressing concern. i.s.i.l. fighters are on three sides of the city. >> they showed no signs of slowing down. the capital has been in their strike. with each village and town, they get closer, making people here more nervous. much of the focus on syria is on the fight on kobane. the fight in between forces and rebel groups continued throughout the country. especially in homs. in homs thousands, orphans, are in need of help. we have this story. >> this town is filled with people looking for shelter from the civil war. people like this.

outbreak, and it may be that it remains endemic in the areas. >> the greatest need is for help treating people with ebola in west africa. this medic is doing that in liberia, one of hundreds from east africa who volunteered to work in affected areas, and she said fears about health workers catching ebola should not be underestimated. >> it was scary the first time. you get into the routine and become safe about it. it's not hard. it's not challenging, challenging nursing work. it's the physical demand and getting used to the routine and the mental stuff that is harder. >> calls for swifter action are coming thick and fast. politicians are listening. events like this are a chance for the world to tell them how to make their action count. >> cuba is making a contribution

most of the people under the protective order are thomas eric duncan's friends and relatives. so far they have not exhibited any ebola symptoms. great news. melissa chan joins us from dallas with the latest on the situation. >> what is next for the people getting out of quarantine? >> essentially they'll be able to go back to regular society and be regular citizens. there's a bit of concern that there'll be discrimination about anyone that has been self monitoring or quarantining. the city is working on that. more of an explanation about the 21 day period. we are seeing the first wave. nina pham did not leave the hospital until thursday, so the health care workers helping her and treating her will have to count from thursday forward for another 21 days. dallas will not be in the clear

until another two or three weeks let's talk about the hospital in dallas. the head in the hospital issued an apology in two newspapers. this is how it reads in part: . >> so what prompted the hospital to publish this now. frankly, they have been getting a lot of bad press for a few days now. >> the hospital has been getting a lot of bad press for a few weeks and days now. in addition to apologising repeatedly. this is something they are pushing for. it's part of campaign to regain public trust. we have seen a downtick. you can well imagine, who wants to go to the ebola hospital if

you have appointment. you may cancel your appointment. the hospital brings in revenues of $600 million, and there's a financial incentive for them to regain public trust. there's few hospitals in the united states that would not make a mistake should an ebola patient show up. that's something this the director of the institute of health said on sunday. >> you need to distinguish between preparation to recognise someone might have and does have ebola and isolate them and get them to a facility where you have people who are pretrained. hospitals take care of a seriously ill ebola patient. right now it's not true. >> talking a little more about the training, you know. it's going to take a lot of time for nurses and doctors at the hospital, but hospitals across the united states to make up the

determination, how much training they want to provide to health care workers. we have to keep everything in mind in terms of the context. there has been precious view ebola patients in this country. they talk how thousands die of the flu. there are other priorities. there's a scare, hospitals have to make an independent decision about how much training they want to provide. >> hospitals across the country are learning what is happening. melissa chan, live in dallas. >> president obama is urging americans not to give in to hysteria over the spread of ebola. health officials say they are caught in a catch 22. the more action they take, the more some are fearful. >> reporter: an obstetrician whose house is on a dallas campus where ebola reared his head, reports losing half of his patients. fear has americans buying

isolation suits, store workers wearing gloves and schools closed in the town of belton texas. parents are concerned because two students from on the same flight as dallas nurse amber vincent. the flight crew said she was not symptomatic, but the schoolkids will stay home for 21 days, because their family is afraid, not because the c.d.c. asked them to. >> they can say what they want to. they are here in dallas, where all three american ebola cases originated, student attendance ditched by 10% after the first diagnosis. >> train and bus riders expressed concern. operators report getting calls from people who are worried because passengers may have sneezed. it's not a way for ebola to be

transmitted. a bus was taken out of service. the driver was on the same side as amber. >> a couple of things make it scary. it's unknown. two, we see people in other countries dying of it massively, what is perceived to us as dying of it massively. >> the fear is driving political pressures, pushing the cdc to do more than what is scientifically necessary. according to the c.d.c.'s recommendations a person should not be tested unless exposed to the virus and develops a fever. the dallas sheriff deputy who complained of fatigue was tested nevertheless and the result was negative. the white house is trying to temper fears by publishing the facts on ebola. it is not spread through contact, air, water and food.

it is only spread through the bodily fluids of a person showing symptoms. despite that the growing anxiety is proving hard to contain coming up, the politics of immigration, how the issue will affect key midterm races, and the challenge of rebuilding gaza. those stories i head on al jazeera america

materials allowed to enter-gaza. the israeli government let the supplies through after an oversight agreement was reached with the united nations and the palestinian authority. the plan restrict what construction materials can enter, which company supplies can be transferred, and a promise that unteams will help with the projects. this warehouse is managed for somalia construction. although the company has been given approvals to sell the cement, it will not be easy. >> translation: there's a special team that will make checks on cement. it's not like in the past when we consult anyone. >> mahmood's home was badly damaged doctoring the 50 day assault on gaza. he lives in a worst-hit neighbourhood. he is one of the lucky ones. part of his house is standing.

construction materials should be given to people like him, first. >> translation: because our house is standing, it's a priority to get fixed. the cement is here, but we haven't been told anything. >> israeli officials say they remain concerned construction materials could find their way into the hands of factions that could use them to build tunnels into the territory. with the need so fast, and international pressure after 5.4 billion was raised, the israeli government agreed to ease the blockade for now. israeli and palestinian negotiators will resume talks on other issues, like the establishment of a gaza seaport and the release of prisoners this month, for those whose homes were damaged or destroyed, the main priority is the

reaffirming the ban on birth control. the mass included a synod, a summit of bishops debating modern family issues, including homosexuality. initial reports stated that homosexuals have gifts to offer the community represented a change in the demonizing language used in the past. this catholic-italian couple just had their marriage officialized by the mayor of rome. they are surprised and delighted. >> the challenge in language is revolutionary. pope francis was the first, referring to documents as homosexuals, in documents. it's acknowledged our existence, we hope that words are followed by actions. >> when it comes to lang wedge in the -- language in the

catholic church, the devil is in the detail. >> the initial report recommended that the church welcome homoactuals -- homosexuals. it changed to a softer approach saying gay people should by provided for in the church, and thursday, saying that homosexuals should simply be treated with respect. >> translation: change in language shows a split between pope francis, and the church should welcome everyone including homosexuals, and those that stick to tradition. now the pope has one year to assure everyone. >> the ground work has been laid for another summit of bishops. then it will become clear for pope francis to perform the miracle of resolving how the church deals with sexuality

immigration reform will be a hot topic during the midterm elections. "real money" ali velshi shows us benefits and concern that can play out in key races. >> hope of passing immigration reform in this congress is dead. it's alive and well as a polarizing issue in the midterm election. >> i oppose amnesty. >> double the border. >> vote with obama for amnesty. >> reporter: the american foreign-born population reached 32,000 people. 11 million of them are believed to be undocumented, and more than half that number, around 6 million, are thought to come from mexico. the debate over u.s. immigration breaks down into two camps - those that want to give the undocumented immigrants legal status, and those that prefer to kick them out. >> they secure the borders.

>> last year the u.s. senate passed a bill. that election has gone nowhere in the republican controlled house of representatives. the nonpartisan office estimates that the legislation, if passed into law, would increase employment by 3.5% over the next two decades, and grow the economy by 5.4%, more than it otherwise would have grown over the same period. an estimated 9.6 million new workers joining the legal workforce means more tax revenue for the federal government, that and shifting spending away from reinforcement, to other priorities would lower deficits by $900 billion. most republican lawmakers object to a key compensate. giving an estimated 11 million undocumented workers legal

status, or amnesty as the republicans phrase it. they don't want blanket citizenship for everyone. where the senate is contested. north carolina, georgia, kentucky. they are states that romney won and don't have big populations, but are places where democrats would potentially face backlash over immigration. >> reporter: with control of the senate in the balance, democrats in the key races are campaigning on almost anything excepts immigration reform later tonight in our special segment "the week ahead", we'll look at voter i.d. concerns. we'll see how the highest court rules in favour of election laws. that is together at 8:30 eastern living a life of luxury
