last. new word that an american journalist is finally back home after spending almost two years as a prisoner in syria. >> and surviving ebola, cnn goes inside the world's largest ebola treatment center, and speaks to doctors risking their lives to fight the deadly virus. >> the american journalist freed by militants sunday is now back home in the united states. peter theo curtis was greeted by his mother just hours ago in boston. >> a moment he had been waiting for for so long. curtis was held for 22 months by fighters believed to be with the al qaeda affiliated group. he was released just days after isis executed james foley.

>> u.s. officials tell cnn another american man was killed in syria over the weekend, but they say douglas mccain was fighting with isis militants. >> he was not the first american to join extremists in syria. the u.s. very concerned about what could happen if they ever return. >> he's an american with an all american name, douglas macarthur mccain. this man from san diego went to fight and die in syria for isis. the terror group u.s. officials now call the gravest of threats. it was, after all an isis fighter who beheaded james foley last week. mccain's family tells us they were told he was killed over the weekend. mccain was raised christian but converted to islam several years ago, police in minnesota tell

cnn mccain had past run ins with the law, charged with possession of marijuana and driving on a suspended license. several months ago, he told family members he was traveling to turkey, that was the last they saw him. mccain is not the first american to die fighting as a jihadi in syria, he was killed in may, detonating a truck bomb near a syrian military base, in a martyr dom video he's seen tearing up his u.s. passport, and urging others to join the fight. >> you think you have won? you have never won. you will never defeat us. >> he was fighting for an al qaeda tied terror group. mccain is the first american known to have been killed fighting for isis. a grown so brutal it was expelled by al qaeda. more than 100 americans are believed to be fighting as jihadis in syria. u.s. officials tell cnn mccain was on a terror watch list.

the state department says they are doing their best to track others. >> we have increased our capacity, tracking, coordination, but clearly this is a threat that we take seriously enough to put it at the front and center of our agen agenda. >> the fear now, when they return home, they may bring geehood with them. jim sciutto, cnn new york. isis is using the video depicting the beheading of james foley as a recruiting tool to attract other western fighters. in the next half hour, you will hear from some western jihadis currently fighting in syria, they tell cnn what they think of the gruesome video in an exclusive interview. now, some news from elsewhere in the middle east, where the world's really watching to see if a new cease-fire between israel and the palestinians will really hold this time. >> this truce is different from several others other the past two months, the reason it is, it

has no expiration date. ben wedeman reports from jerusalem. >> reporter: the guns have gone shrine the for now with another cease fire in place since 7:00 p.m. tuesday evening. it's an open ended cease-fire, which will give a chance for israel and hamas to work out through egyptian intermediaries, something that approximates a lasting cessation of hostilities, in the meantime, according to egyptian officials, border crossings will be eased to allow in humanitarian and medical supplies and the coastal fishing off gaza will be extended to six miles. hamas and other factions immediately claimed victory with thousands pouring into the streets of gaza to celebrate. 50 days after the fighting began, hamas still controlled gaza, most of its senior leadership appears to have survived and through the prism of middle east conflict, to survive is to triumph, in israel, the reaction is much

more low key. benjamin netanyahu did not put the cease-fire to a cabinet vote, and many of his political rivals wasted no time in accusing him of making bad deal. one senior israeli official i spoke with defended the cease-fire saying israel had crippled hamas' military infrastructure, destroying thousands of missiles, killing in his words around 1,000 militants, demolishing a dozen tunnels dug by hamas into israel. both sides provide their spin, the results of the fighting speak for themselves opinion more than 2,100 killed in gaza with massive destruction and more than half a million displaced. in israel, nearly 70 killed while thousands living near the gaza border had fled to safer ground. at this point it's not at all clear if this cease-fire will hold. this is the third major flairup between israel and gaza in the last six years, and few are confident it will be the last.

ben wedeman cnn, jerusalem. >> let's talk about the cease-fire deal now. as you see on your screens, he joins us from ramallah in the west bank. thank you for joining us on cnn this morning. the deal is now in place, fishing zone restored for the coastline of gaza, some border crossings slightly eased. how pleased are you with the terms of this open ended cease-fire? >> we are very pleased the aggression of the palestinian people has stopped and israel has failed. israel initiated this operation 51 days ago, with one aim to occupy gaza completely, and to impose its own regulation on

gaza, they failed drastically, that's what netanyahu is going to face now, a big failure, he failed to break down the palestinian unity, he failed to break down the palestinian resistance, he failed to occupy gaza, and -- but he caused terrible damage, i mean, 2,100 palestinians killed including children. 11,000 palestinians injuried, more than 20,000 homes destroyed. these are war crimes and crimes against humanity, for which we are determined to take to the international criminal court, and israel has to be held accountable for all these crimes that were committed against the palestinian people. and that yet failed to break the palestinian will and determination to get freedom from occupation and from this system of israeli apartheid. >> we know there's a massive lack of trust between palestinians and israelis there, i guess what we are looking for in this cease-fire is what will

it take, though for palestinians and israelis to be able to live in peace, there are some suggestions as we look into how the cease-fire came to be, you represent a group separate from hamas, the palestinians are negotiating together. the palestinian block may plan to avoid u.s. brokered peace plans and rather use the channels of the u.n. and an end of the blockade. do you think that that by passing of the u.s. increases chances for a long term deal? >> we are not trying to by pass -- it has failed itself, because it could not pressure israel to stop this aggression, it could not pressure israel to end the occupation and to stop the enhancement of settlement building in the west bank.

and what we want is our freedom, what we want is an end of this disaster, what we want is an end of the occupation that has become the longest in modern history, and we want to end the situation where israel decides every two years to conduct a massacre against the palestinian population. whether in the west bank or gaza. we have nothing against israeli people or jewish people on the contrary, i'm proud of the fact that more than 100 survivors of the holocaust, jewish survivors of the holocaust issued a statement for sanctions against the israel government. they believe what israel is doing is wrong, what we want is peace, what we want is our freedom, and it's time to tell israel enough is enough, the occupation has to end, the apartheid system has to end and palestinians are entitled to freedom, independence and to be equal to other people in this

world, that's what we are going to ask for, and well will go to you and every possible venue to get our freedom. what should be clear today is that after 51 days of massacres against the palestinian people, the israeli army could not break the will and determination of the palestinian people to get their freedom. >> among palestinians there is no uniformity of opinion, hamas certainly more mill tanned than the palestinian authority and your representing the palestinian parliament there in the west bank. what are the conversations like between the palestinian authority and hamas? i mean, are there any of these conversations to convince hamas to be less militant? israel, of course, saying that hamas provoked all of this by firing rockets in the first place. do you have those internal discussions and die baits? >> absolutely, we had very long discussions between different

parts of the palestinian leadership. what israel as you know, and if you go back to the israeli statements by mr. netanyahu before the war started, israel is one of the main goals. it was to break the unity government. or the government of consensus, and israel is adamant against palestinian unity. we want unity, and we are determined to proceed with our unity through democracy, and hamas is part of the palestinian structure. this war was not conducted against hamas, it was conducted against all the palestinian people. the victims are the palestinians, regardless of their political otherian taking. what we need today is strong palestinian unity to be able to influence the situation so that we can get our freedom. israel will not be able to break us again, and divide us again as they tried before. we are determined to be unified and we are determined to get back our freedom. and our democracy, so that

people can choose freely and democratically who should lead them in a fair manner. who is militant or not militant. all palestinian people are militant when it comes to their right for freedom of occupation. at this time for the world to see palestinians as one people rather than different factions. >> doctor, thank you so much for speaking with us this morning on cnn. joining me live from the west bank, where it's just past 8:00 in the morning. now, as for reaction from israeli officials, they note that they actually offered to accept egypt's peace deal weeks ago, listen to this. >> we hope that this time the cease-fire will stick. and i think now as the dust will begin to clear, many people will be asking, why is it that today hamas accepted the very same egyptian framework that it rejected a month ago?

ultimately so much bloodshed could have been avoided. >> you can hear more from mark regev in about an hour from now. he will be joining us live. the presidents of russia and ukraine met face to face for the first time since june, ahead, comments from both leaders that are fueling faint hopes for a truce in eastern ukraine. hotels.com i don't need it right now. it's the trusted resource. and now, kbb.com has a whole new way to help you decide on your next new car by showing you what really matters. use 5-year cost to own to compare the long term cost of maintenance, insurance and gas. read reviews. woman: gas milage is awesome. from actual owners and kelley blue book experts. and get the full picture on what it's like to own the cars you're considering

welcome back, everyone. the ukraine and russian presidents made statements. peace remains uncertain at this point. the talks were called positive, and said they agreen the need to renew dialogue. there's a general agreement tom end the fighting. >> we demonstrated that the main goal we've come to minsk with is peace. ukraine needs peace today. citizens of luhansk, donetsk need peace. citizens of all cities which are under occupation today and where people are tired of living in a state of war in the 20th century. and that's why they demanded very decisive action which can

bring peace to ukrainian soil. >> translator: we russia can't talk about any conditions for the cease-fire, about possible agreements. it's not a matter for us, it's incrane's internal matter. we can only contribute to the atmosphere of trust which i believe is very necessary. we talked about that. >> this meeting came as ukraine produced a video of what it says are 10 russian soldiers captured in eastern ukraine, mr. putin has insisted russia has not sent troops across the border, they likely crossed the border by accident while on patrol. one of the captured soldiers told a dinner story.

2350i9ing in eastern ukraine has dragged on for months now. the united nations estimate more than 2,000 people have been killed and 5,000 have been wounded since mid april. now to this news out of europe, the french prime minister says parliament will hold a confidence vote on the country's new government within the next two months. the new cabinet was announced on tuesday, just a day after political disputes led to the old government's resignation. most notably, emmanuel maqron is the new adviser. he replaces the previous austerity minister. still to come here for you

largest city. it's just horrendous on the ground there, season the it? >> yes, did is. five people have lost their lives, five people considered missing in this region and all of this just because of rainfall over the past couple days. the vast majority of it in a three to seven hour period. population 3.6 million. which is equivalent very close to the city of los angeles excluding the metro there. it would be equivalent to the second largest city in the united states that has taken on upwards of 10 inches of rainfall in a few hours. it's home to the longest river in south korea, and the longest beach in south korea. it has the largest department store in the world. so there's a very bustling city across this region, you can see the impact. train service halted across this region and a nuclear power plant had to halt operations because

of flooding in a cooling facility that took place in that region as well. the damage quite significant. you take a look, all of this because of what happened right here on the satellite imagery, that complex of thunderstorms roared through this region, just as quickly as it came, it was gone. in a region that's dealt with drought. now the accumulation of recent days of rainfall had a left to this. 100 millimeters. if you're watching in the u.s., that's four inches. there's seoul right there to the north, the impact is upwards of 10 inches or 300 millimeters came down. four of the five people that are missing in this region were inside this bus, one of the five fatalities occurred inside this bus. it kind of got lodged up against a bridge once the floodwaters took over. if at all possible, we know two

of the fatalities occurred when some people tried to drive under a flooded bridge and water took over their vehicle and they lost their lives in their vehicle. it's important to note that it's the last place you want to put yourself if you can avoid being in that car. >> such good advice. >> just this time yesterday, we saw the video of that bus as it was being pulled along, it's a surprise that only one person -- it was only one fatality. it could have been worse. u.s. fast food giant announced a whopper of a deal on tuesday. that was too easy. >> yes. >> it's buying tim horton's. we're speaking of burger king. >> one investor supporting the deal is warren buffett. but critics say there's a catch. one that will cost the united states treasury a lot of money. >> when you think of burger king or warren buffett, you think america. ♪ have it your way at burger

king ♪ >> reporter: but now, the iconic american brand and investor are teaming up to relocate the fast food chain outside of the united states. here's the deal, burger king announced its buying tim horton's and moving the combined company headquarters north of the border. that creates an opportunity for the company to write off some of its u.s. corporate taxes and avoid paying u.s. taxes on earnings abroad. buffet one of the most patriotic businessmen in the country has been highly critical of looph e loopholes for individuals. is he helping burger king avoid u.s. taxes? burger king is the biggest and latest to attempt moving its headquarters. >> it's just gotten way out of hand because tax rates are so low in certain countries, it's a

crazy situation, but it's developed over the years, that part of the tax code really has to get looked at at some point. the u.s. is criticized for having one of the highest corporate tax rates in the world. companies often find ways to offset their bills to the government. last year, corporate taxes were 1.6% of gdp, less than half of what they were 50 years ago. burger king's own executives say the deal classifies as an inversion, but they also say it won't change their tax bill. with many americans still feeling the sting of the recession, it's no surprise this is a political issue. >> it's not fair. it's not right. the lost revenue to treasury means it's got to be made up somewhere, and that's going to be a bunch of hardworking americans. >> before we get too patriotic, it's important to remember, while burger king may be an american brand it has locations in 98 countries. it's international growth is key.

and a brazilian investment firm owns most of the company. cnn money, new york. >> interesting stuff there. the world health organization is demanding stiff new regulations on the market for ecigs. you'll see them all over bars in europe and the u.s. these days. some people claim the electronic cigarettes help them quit smoking. >> the who says the vapor still increases the levels of toxins in the air. it's calling for a ban on indoor use and regulations that would keep e cigarette companies from making unproven health claims. the industry is worth an estimated $3 billion a year. so they won't fight -- >> i know some people who swear by them too, are they really that much safer in. >> new details have emerged about who negotiated the release of a u.s. journalist held in

syria. we'll have the latest on the release of peter 2450e yo curtis. on the front lines of the war against ebola, we will meet doctors who put themful ises at risk trying to save others. creates something else as well: jobs all over america. engineering and innovation jobs. advanced safety systems & technology. shipping and manufacturing. across the united states, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. when we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. that's not a coincidence. it's one more part of our commitment to america.

for future negotiations. >> u.s. officials tell cnn an american has been killed in syria while fighting as an isis militant. douglas mccain was not the first american to fight or die with extremists in syria, and analysts fear others like him who survive may come back to terrorize the u.s. >> prospects for peace in eastern ukraine and certain after a meeting between the russian and ukrainian presidents in belarus, work will start soon to achieve a cease-fire with russian separatists, vladimir putin says ukraine must hold its own talks with the separatists, but moscow is willing to assist. britain's counter terrorism treef reports is asking for help tracking down other would-be isis recruits. >> foley's execution was a

warning to stop air strikes on isis fighters. >> america does not forget. our reach is long, we are patient, justice will be done. we have proved time and time again, we will do what's necessary to capture those who harm americans. to go after those who harm americans. >> meanwhile, a memorial service was held for james foley at marquette university in milwaukee, wisconsin, many of those who attended wondered why foley who had been kidnapped before his disappearance in syria in 2012, they wondered why he would take such a risk again. >> a student asked jim, why would you go back? it was pretty simple, he said. once i was able to process what

happened, once i was able to recover emotionally, i knew that i had to go back. i had to go back to beginish the story. >> incredible. the video of foley's beheading is being used as a propaganda tool by the people who killed him. >> two foreign jihadists say they are eager to carry out a similar execution. >> it wasn't just a message to america, it was also a recruitment video for young men like these. >> my initial reaction, personally was that this was a direct response to the crimes of the u.s. against the islamic state. >> we have spoken to these two before, two foreign fighters inside syria, one of them british. claiming to be absolute believers in isis's mid evil

view of the world. >> do you believe in beheading and executions like this? and would you actually partake in one? >> i would be more than honored to partake in an execution like this. i hope god gives me the chance to do such a thing as the brother did with james foley. whether it be someone like james foley or -- my hands are ready to do this blessed act. >> the muslim council of britain for example has come out condemning the killing of foley, saying it is brutal and abhor an the and anybody who follows this belief is misguided. what's your response to that? >> they are imposters, they are not muslims, they have always fought against islam with the british government, they have tried to stop young men going to palestine, iraq city, and they worked in these extremes -- there are no muslims, so this reaction coming from them is not surprising.

>> who are these young men willing to commit such brutality, despite worldwide condemnation? of britain's nearly 3 million muslims, only an estimated 400 to 500 have gone to fight in syria, roughly the same amount of muslims who are currently listed in the british army. british experts paint a diverse picture of british muslim extremists. most are single men under the age of 30, a significant number are older and married with children. many are converts to islam or are british born muslims from immigrant families. many are also deepening their extremists ideology online. some have links to gangs and the criminal underworld. but many are also well educated and from middle class families. so intelligence analysts say, there is no one statistical profile or trigger that leads young men to such extremes. the last time we spoke both insisted they would not return

home, that has now changed. he seems willing to come to britain and bring his jihad with him. >> if there's no other choice but to come back and stop you with a very aren't message, then i will have to do that, i'm ready to take that step to come back if the countries don't stop attacking us. >> any fighter bringing their so-called holy war back home is exactly what many western security officials fear most. >> very disturbing insight there. american journalist peter theo curtis is now home, he was held hostage by militants in syria for 22 months. >> it's the complete opposite outcome of these hostage scenarios. curtis reunited with his mother in boston on tuesday, just a short time ago, she spoke with anderson cooper and thanked everyone who played a role in

getting her son home including the government of qatar. >> i knew the united states government was not going to pay a ransom and did not want anybody to pay a ransom. but we were hopeful that the connection to qatar would be productive, but we didn't know. and they certainly were very gracious and tremendously helpful. you have to give credit to all the people that i don't know about in the united states government that have been working on this hard for two years. >> curtis' mother not believing that qatar paid a ransom. earlier curtis himself publicly thanked qatar for helping to negotiate his release. >> qatar's involvement raises questions about its relationship with the united states. the washington post says the u.s. government asked qatar for assistance and does so

regularly. cnn's becky anderson has more. >> reporter: a tiny country with huge coffers make no bones about it, qatar has become a major presence on the international stage. the release of peter theo curtis from an al qaeda affiliate is just the latest diplomatic feat of many achieved by dohar. it's efforts were driven by humanitarian principles. in june the government of qatar, a u.s. ally, helped broker the release of bowe bergdahl in change for the release of five detainees from guantanamo bay. it's a vital conduit for tricky negotiations, critics have

questioned the extent of its relationships with these shadowy groups. despite the gulf emirates contention that it does not support extremists. elsewhere, they provide political support to egypt's now banned muslim brotherhood, and doe har has been accused of supporting hamas, which the u.s. considers a terror organization. >> qatar does not support hamas. qatar supports the palestinians, we reach out to our people -- to our family for humanitarian assistan assistance. >> there's no question about qatar's high global profile, but it's humanitarian role remains open for debate. becky anderson, cnn, abu dhabi. and now to some updates on the fight against ebola, many of

the health care workers are front and center in the deadly virus, the world health organization now is pulling its staff from a sierra leone laboratory after a medical worker become infected with ebola. a spokesman for the organization says the withdrawal is a temporary measure, but didn't say when the workers plan to return. >> meanwhile, a british nurse who contracted the virus in west africa has been treated with the experimental drug. william pooley was transported from sierra leone to london on sunday. the drug has had two mixed results. two american missionaries treated with the medication have recovered by a liberian doctor decide. >> we don't know is z-mapp the cure? >> public health experts say part of the problem is a shortage of protected gear in

more remote areas as well as improper use of the gear. cnn caught up with doctors serving on the front lines in monrovia. >> this doctor could be any chief of staff in any clinic in the world. he's not. he's leading the world's largest ever ebola treatment center, at the heart of the largest outbreak the world has seen. a quarter of the dead are health care workers. after 14 years as an ebola specialist, he is unfazed. >> you get here and you start working here, and you're here long enough, you see the suffering, and you see all of the things that ebola can do, but you also see what's done to control the disease. and you take some level of reassurance from those procedures, and you say, okay, this is something that i can handle. >> the procedures are as thorough as they can be.

gogg goggles, gloves, plastic gowns, every inch of flesh covered, but there is always still a risk for the staff that enter the high risk ward. that's where the ebola cases are admitted. men, women and children. all hoping they will overcome the killer in their midst. behind the patients, bodies lined up for the morgue. since the centered opened last week, there's been a death here almost every hour. >> you feel that you have -- >> across town, we went to visit a doctor in his home. he was working at the catholic hospital when he contracted the virus. miraculously, he survived. even more mmiraculously, he has avenue intention of going back to work.

>> to do my very best, i went there and -- to do my very best. what i saw there, i thought lottance lots of people. >> new tents are going up on the center's compound. they're at capacity here, and we're told these tents are also expected to fill quickly. >> is it worth the risk? >> oh, yeah. it is something that touches a very human part of us, it makes us very scared, we have to say there's hope we have to get through this, we have to be a part of that, and allow people to know that life will get back to normal at some point. >> it could be months before this epidemic is brought fully under control. and until then, people here will need all the help they can get to believe going back to normal

really is possible. cnn, monrovia, liberia. >> these health care workers, they are the heroes in this story. >> they're front and center on the front lines there. >> taking such big risks. >> to help others. >> let's take a break. still to come, an exclusive interview with a man who claims to have fixed as many as 100 football matches. he reveals the inner workings of match fixing. they're delicious and an excellent source of fiber to help support regularity. mmmm. these are good! the tasty side of fiber. from phillips you got a little something" tool on the back of your shoe there. a price tag! danger! price tag alert! oh. hey, guys. price tag alert! is this normal? well, progressive is a price tag free zone. we let you tell us what you want to pay, and we help you find options to fit your budget. where are they taking him? i don't know.
