4:00 am
compliments. cavuto, wise up, the d.c. politicians there are to do things for themselves. what areeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer drif. we need him to wrap up the week. lou donees. keep it here on fox business -- lou dobbs. >> good evening, everybody i'm ashley webster in tonight for lou dobbs. president obama and his national security team maintained for months there was no u.s. military solution to the isil up rising in iraq. but the president tonight ignoring this declaration, giving clearance for u.s. military airstrikes against us lamic militants. first u.s. military mission in iraq since the obama administration brought troops home since 2011. f/a-18s launched from the uss george h.w. bush aircraft carrier used 500-pound bombs to
4:01 am
take out artillery positions and convoy of isis positions in the north. 100,000 christians have been told to convert to islam or die that help is on the way. >> today i authorized two operations in iraq. targeted airstrikes to protect our american personnel, and a humanitarian effort to help save thousands of iraqi civilians who are trapped on a mountain without food and water and facing almost certain death. >> the president making a remarkable turn from this past january when he scoffed at the notion that isil was something to be taken seriously. now you may remember the president saying quote, the analogy we use around here sometimes, i think this is accurate, if a jv team puts on lakers uniforms doesn't make them kobe bryant. in light of this major about face, the president's top foreign policy advisor today unwilling to answer whether or not we are now at war with islamic state. ben rhodes, dancing around the
4:02 am
question claiming the president was simply responding to a terror threat. but at least one prominent democratic senator is not satisfied with that response. armed services committee member richard blumenthal of connecticut, warning white house in strongly worded statement, saying i opposed open-ended military commitments which president ace actions in iraq could become. the president owes the american people a better, fuller explanation and scope of strategy of military actions. reports that the airstrikes will expand in the coming days on the, the president and his aides promising that u.s. ground troops would not be returning to iraq. fox news chief white house correspondent ed henry at the white house with our report. >> as president obama worked the phones today, reaching out to jordan's king abdullah who is fretting about isis militants spreading in into his kingdom, aides pressing over and over a president who ran against a dumb
4:03 am
war, sticking with limited u.s. mission that it is up to iraqis to stop islamic militants. >> this is threat we can not confront for them. this is threat only met and defeated by a unified iraq. >> republicans counter the president needs to ramp up assault on isis and makes sure the u.s. defeats them now. >> the longer he takes to make the decision that isis is very bad group and has to be destroyed both in iraq and syria, by the way, this will only continue to get worse. >> white house spokesman josh earnette says the president acted this time because of tightly confined short term mission preventing humanitarian disaster in northern iraq, and protecting u.s. personnel there, slowing isis though not necessarily stopping them in the long term. >> the goal has been to defeat decimate core al qaeda. is the goal to defeat and decimate isis? >> the goal as relates to this very specific situation is the need for a iraq to confront the threat that is posed by isil.
4:04 am
>> administration officials defend the lack of a u.s.-centric strategy to defeat isis by saying al qaeda is different because it was trying to launch terror attacks against the u.s. homeland. though secretary of state john kerry today suggested that isis is in fact a long-term threat too. >> confront isil and its threat to the security of the region and to our own security in the long run. >> then there's the fact that the president has given competing rationale for when to intervene last night citing principle -- >> can not turn a blind eye. >> earlier used in 2011 to explain the nato mission in libya. >> some nations may turn a blind eye to atrocities in other countries. the united states of america is different. >> putting the president on defense about why he hasn't done more to deal with a far bigger massacre playing out in syria? already more than 170,000 killed. >> there is no direct correlation between action in one place and action in another. >> tomorrow president heads to
4:05 am
martha vineyard for two week vacation. he is bringing two top national security aides, help keep him in the national security loop. >> ed henry, thank you very much. >> our next guest says the military needs to have what it needs to successfully carry out the mission is now murky and unnamed. joining us mo brooks, member of the house foreign affairs committee. very busy man. congressman, thank you so much for joining us on this friday. so let me begin here. should this mission have a name and should the president be more forthcoming with his strategy, if he has one? >> i'm not so in tune whether it should have a name but i do think we need to have a strategy. short-term strategy as the president has announced, it sound good but you have to have an endgame. let me assure you using aircraft by itself will not a war with isis.
4:06 am
at some point you're going to have to have boots on the ground, whether american or iraqi or kurdish or syrian or whatever. hopefully in that vane vain the president will exercise diplomatic skill and ask america to contribute. i don't know america is comfortable with it again being the only sheriff in town. the president needs to ask the rest of the world, where are you? where is the united nations in this? if this is humanitarian crisis, if isis is the kind of threat we believe it is, then it is also a threat to the rest of the world. it is also a humanitarian crisis for rest of the world. they need to join in. america should not be the only cowboy involved in this action. >> but so far, congressman, seems that the response from the obama administration is look, this is a threat that has to be confronted by a unified iraq, which to my mind, when is that going to happen? when are we last seeing a unified iraq? could argue back to saddam hussein. we know what happened there. in my mind it will take help
4:07 am
from the outside, beyond humanitarian aid. would you not agree? >> well, the, certainly the air aspect of it and military capabilities and that the united states has with our pinpoint weaponry, that is something that is probably growing to be necessary to help any kind of ground force. but it is one thing for the president of the united states to say we need a unified iraq. it is another thing to make it happen. after all, he is the president of the united states and he is putting our men and women into harm's way and that needs to be taken care of before you engage in this kind of military action. and the planning should have begun for this weeks and months ago. hopefully it did begin weeks and months ago f that kind of planning was done weeks and months ago, shortly to follow-up to airstrikes there should be ground engagement, hopefully alliance of some group of entities, the kurds, iraq itself, other nations that will assist the united states of america in making sure that isis
4:08 am
is no longer a threat to us or the rest of the world. >> why would we step in here when we wouldn't in syria, to ed henry's point in his report. 170,000 killed in syria. what is the difference? >> well i think one of the things that about syria that may be different here is that we have a better judgment as to who our allies would be. would the kurd, or with the iraqi government centered in baghdad? in syria, who our ally? if someone comes out on top, are they going to be our friend or our foe? and perhaps what happened in libya is a good example of how the president does is best as commander-in-chief to exercise good judgment but in at that instance the results weren't very good. we had four americans killed in because because and -- benghazi, recently americans staffing the embassy had to flee the country because it evolved into such a state of unrest. in syria, who are the allies? and the president will have to exercise the kind of judgment in
4:09 am
iraq that we clearly have allies, if we help somebody that they will understand the help that we have provided and they in turn will not use the help that we have given them to later on be an adversary riff ours. >> while we still have time, congressman, we always ask you about the immigration issue. we heard from the administration, numbers of unaccompanied children trying to get across the border dropped off significantly. in fact they're shutting down some shelters now. the administration would say the message is out because it is unsafe to try to travel to the united states. if you do get here you will be sent home but isn't this more of a factor middle of summer and incredibly hot and we could see the number of illegal immigrants coming to the borders in larger numbers again once the weather cools down? >> well the weather is the primary factor. if you look at history of illegal immigrants coming into america, quite clearly august, the heat, the southwest united states and northern mexico, that
4:10 am
not a time to be out on your own with limited water supplies. the explanation that the president has given quite frankly does not accord with the true facts as i understand then on the border. what would really be a key for us to have secure border for the president to be clearly enunciate there will not be amnesty. we have this problem today because two years ago president gave amnesty to hundreds of thousands. when he did that, that encouraged the legal alien children of today to come over, 70,000 so far. 90,000 expected for this year. next year, 145,000. so the key to have a consistent enforcement of our border security and right now, we don't have that coming from the obama administration. so i anticipate this problem will get worse before it gets better. hopefully the president's words will match his actions. if it does, if we have that kind of enforcement that is needed, if we have a return of these illegal alien children to their families back home, then you will not have this reoccurrence next year in the following year. >> we're already out of time.
4:11 am
congressman mo brooks, thank you so much for joining us tonight. we appreciate it. >> my pleasure. >> to the very latest on growing tensions between russia and the west. the obama administration warning russia against any further intervention in neighboring ukraine, including any effort to deliver humanitarian aid. here is u.n. ambassador samantha power, at the u.n. security council meeting. >> in ukraine, urgent humanitarian assistance should be delivered by the international humanitarian organizations that have the expertise, experience and independence to provide it. it should not be delivered by russia. and given that ukraine has allowed international humanitarian groups to deliver aid within its territory, there is no logical reason why russia should seek to deliver it. there for any further unilateral intervention by russia into ukrainian territory, including one under the guise of providing humanitarian aid would be completely unacceptable and deeply alarming and it would be
4:12 am
viewed as an invasion of ukraine. >> power is skeptical about russia's offer to deliver aid because moscow voiced similar concerns for civilians in georgia in 2008 before engaging in a five-day war with the former soviet republic. for its part russia announced it had finished five days of military drills along the border with ukraine. exercises the u.s. slammed as provocative. we'll have to wait and see. we will be right back. it didn't take long. moments after the 72-hour cease-fire ended hamas rockets went firing. colonel robert mcginn necessary on the
4:13 am
4:14 am
4:15 am
ashley: a 72-hour truce came to
4:16 am
an bankrupt end today with hamas abrupt end as hamas firing more rockets into israel. retaliatory airstrikes by israeli defense forces. israel refusing to negotiate while under fire and hamas rejecting any deal until the gaza blockade is ended. joining me now, retired army lieutenant colonel robert maginnis. thanks so much for joining me. boy, have we heard this story over and over again and from both sides perspective in this conflict, israel wants to disarm the hamas and hamas says, lift the blockade and release our prisoners. this isn't going to happen, is it? what is going to bring this to an end? >> probably they will get tired of fighting for a while and delay a couple years. hamas will rebuild the tunnels. they will replace the 3500 rockets they fired. israel will lick its wounds and hear the protests from its own people who are tired of being,
4:17 am
rocketed every so often. already politically, you know, netanyahu has problems down south just because they say look, this is not going to go away. ashley: yeah. >> we fought it in in '09 we fot it in '12, now we fought it in '14. will iting be '15 and '16? it is inevitable. ashley: how does hamas come out with this? does palestinian authority gain ground? could this end up with hamas losing some power? >> i think hamas just by surviving, and intimidating israel, keep in mind they fired rockets this time all the way to haifa, not done before. they are endangering most of the population of israel which is having a political impact, especially from their sponsors overin qatar and elsewhere. no, i actually actually think hamas by surviving and intimidating the israeli population sends a signal not only to their own people but to the greater part of the region
4:18 am
and i suspect you've got hezbollah that is watching very closely in the north. you have isis, which is obviously aware of what is going on there. their hands are somewhat tied now. but they could easily come to league together and i think, to a certain degree, that is why king abdullah next door in jordan is nervous as he can be. he looks to his left, he looks to his north and he knows this is not going to end well. ashley: that is a very good point, not one many people talked about, colonel, the fact that maybe isis does make it that far south. this extreme radical group, what would that do to israel? israel clearly has military might in comparison, but it would put them in a difficult situation, would it not? >> well, it will. keep in mind, al-baghdadi, the caliphate, our calif, he has ambition taking over mecca, medina and of course jerusalem.
4:19 am
in order to have a legitimate caliphate you have to do that. israel is very aware of that but so is king abdullah. people in riyadh, saudi arabia are nervous just because, you do the social media inventory, you find out there are a lot of people in downtown riyadh that don't like the king, don't like his 1,000 princes and situation they face. we have, a turmoil that is beginning to really stir in that part of the world, unlike what we've seen up to now. it is pretty bad at this point. ashley: have we underestimated the, the power of isis? we looked at them as radicals but are they perhaps more well-organized than we first realized? are they a threat that can continue to grow i guess is my question? >> yes they can. keep in mind half of them are foreigners to that area. those in iraq, have come from elsewhere. they have come from libya. they have come as far west as algeria.
4:20 am
they have come from afghanistan. from the caucasus. they are collecting there. there is energy behind an organization that send out a message that, we're going to take over the world. and get a certain percentage of people that want to participate in that and they want to collect on the booty that comes with that particular agenda. so, yeah, i think, that unless they're destroyed and destroyed very quickly, they're going to continue to grow. the idea that, you know, they didn't come out of syria is ludicrous. that is where they came out of. ashley: yeah. >> syria's battlefield has 100 plus different groups. but isis is one of them. it is a very powerful one and it is growing rapidly. ashley: with all of that given, colonel, does the u.s. ultimately militarily, we had the strikes for humanitarian aid, but looks like we could be involved in a more drawn-out conflict in. >> well you know, if you're going to shoot laser-guided bombs, you are designate those laser-guided bombs with drones
4:21 am
in the air or with people on the ground. the more accurate they are, it is probably somebody on the ground that is lazing that. we have 300 special operations people in that area of the world. we have a bunch of them that are sitting over in erbil. if they don't have laser designatetores, they're not doing their job. ashley: we'll continue to follow. we're already out of time. colonel bob maginnis. thanks so much for your insight. we appreciate night thank you. ashley: guess what? if you're rich, famous, massively unpopular, mercedes-benz has a car for you. the german automaker unveiling luxury sedan can with stand small caliber bullets and explosive devices like grenades as well. mercedes-benz is being coy about the price. a fully-loaded sedan without all the glass, is starts at $166,000.

basic criteria hundred the international health regulations for emergency concern. ashley: joining me now to discuss this global health emergency, a professor at tulane university department of microbiology and immunology. what makes this -- we just heard from the director of the who calling this the most complex outbreak they have seen at this particular disease. what makes is so complex? we have had up. >> before. >> previous outbreaks have been in central africa. they have been in small villages that are pretty isolated. the roads between the villages are not very good. this is in west africa. the population density is a lot higher. villages are pretty close together. people like to travel around. the roads are good. a lot of mining in west africa. some mining companies will come in and of good roads. people move around.
4:27 am
ashley: liberia, sierra leone, how can you stop the spread of this epidemic given those parameters? >> well, this is already spread. so -- more so than any other outbreak. we need to rethink our public health strategies, how to deal with this. the traditional concepts and not going to work. what might be needed some time. we need that in west africa now to control this outbreak. we need a lot more people, lot more expertise. ashley: why don't we have a vaccine for this, ebola, which we have known as existed for quite some time? >> we actually do have five or six sex scenes that have worked really well. and they have protected those animals. what we need to do is get out of
4:28 am
our own way and get those vaccines safety tested so that we can get them to the people and protect against this terrible disease. ashley: i know you have been personally affected by this because he lost someone that was a friend of yours to the bullet, is that right? >> i have lost several colleagues to this ebola virus disease. but a colleague of ten years. a wonderful man, a dedicated physician. we have also lost nurses and other people on staff. will we need to do is carry forward with their legacy and put an end so this outbreak. ashley: and a difficult line. you don't want to create panic, but at the same time you want the public to be informed. what risk does this pose to the united states? >> it is not the risk that this virus is going to come here and spread like it has in west africa. we are not going to see hundreds
4:29 am
of thousands of cases. it is a very real possibility that somebody could get on a plane, develop symptoms later after they have gotten off the plane and spread it to a few people. then we would see a few cases, maybe a dozen, maybe more. we would rapidly get that under control. we have a better health care facility here that can put people into isolation. you won't see the widespread. ashley: i understand that next monday the world health organization is convening a special meeting to look at the use of experimental treatments for ebola. what is the significance of this? should this have happened before and? >> this should have definitely happen beforehand. what we need to do is figure out which of these drugs work so that we can treat people will come down with the disease. what i don't want to see happening is the next outbreak, and we are in the same position we are right now. that is, we don't have the
4:30 am
improved drugs. we need check, like i said, get out of our own way, get these drugs safety tested so that we can start to save lives in africa. ashley: we thank you for your input and expertise. thank you for joining us tonight. >> my pleasure in. ashley: making landfall on the big island of hawaii earlier today. a first tropical storm to hit hawaii in 22 years. no deaths or major injuries reported. still a menace to down trees, power lines, and spared some flooding theory of the weather the his far from over. hurricane khalil is moving in. an leyna close behind. expected to skirt the north of the islands on sunday. right now a category three storm packing winds of 120 miles-per-hour but is expected to weaken. residents are voting in primary elections tomorrow. more about that coming up. we too will be right back. ♪

4:36 am
month. i mean, isis came in in june. now the biggest christian city has been taken over. that is where the christians were fleeing for a month. and we have not heard a single thing from the president until now. oh, yes, all of a sudden definitely it is in the united states interest to stop genocide but it has been happening for weeks. and i don't -- i would not want to be in this president's position. we have to decide as a country what is in our interest. if we can't say that stopping genocide is in our interest, i don't know what is. >> more extreme than i have ever seen. quite happily putting out disgusting, horrible videos betting people. we had a christian and you go to heaven. that is there mantra. >> brilliant, right?
4:37 am
ashley: do you confront this, something that i am sure from a religious point of view, you don't want to confront this of violence. sometimes you're left with no choice. >> you are exactly right. princess decided to send over a representative, his official representatives going over right now on his way. somebody who was an ambassador, a vatican ambassador from 2001 to 2006 basically to a plea with people, stop. and say, as you mentioned, nobody in the name of god can kill an innocent person. if anyone is telling you that god told them to cut the head of another person, well, then they are not listening to there own personal interest and not the voice of god. think it is important that religious leaders speak out. ashley: very difficult to do
4:38 am
with a group like this. how can you reason was someone who has these believes? >> you are right. that is why paul francis is not saying go ahead and bomb them. he has not said it is wrong. why? it is complicated. on one hand give humanitarian aid. think of the united states has done it, lake but they have done it. secondly, eminent danger of somebody taking your life, in the just war theory that has developed over centuries there has always been the right to use whenever necessary force in order to stop that danger, and a danger. ashley: the social media and the power of social media especially true in this case is people share stories, share their beliefs. it is creating quite a groundswell of call for action. >> i don't think the united states international community acted today to me yesterday if it were not for social media. news outlets like your program right now.
4:39 am
i can tell you, more assyrian and chaldean christians through social media on facebook and twitter than ever in my life. one thing they have been asking me is, when you speak out about this, say this, we need a safe haven. our homeland. way before muslims ever existed, we need a safe haven, not just an immediate protection right now. we need a safe haven. ashley: literally their shirts on their back trying desperately to find a safe haven. they are stuck on the mountains. >> why have occurred survived? the united states has a safe haven together with saddam bassein. kristin's right now, chaldean, syrians needed safe haven. president obama and the leaders of the international community have responsibilities. if they say they are against genocide and they're going to risk life in order to make sure that happens, also to give the
4:40 am
safe haven, in other words, a long-term solution. ashley: thank you so much for being here tonight. appreciate it. okay. we will be right back. big money prompting big changes in college sports as the nation's top players may soon get a bigger piece of the pie. beaches schrager tells us what it means for college sports and the athletes of the schools will of next.
