israeli teenager, in the west bank. an event many they triggered the israeli hamas conflict this ensueed, before the islamic state terrorist brutally beheaded journal hist foley, they demandeed 132 million in r ransom from his family and employer, we have also learned that the executioner of foley is from england. john is one of a thousand european jihadists who are now fighting with the islamic state. >> we know for a fact, in syria, in iraq, more european are on the ground, we capture, we see, we see videos. and twitters, we know for a fact there are european who are jihadists, others said before

this is a gee addist tourist -- jihadist tourist destination, we need to fight that. lou: islamic state, isil, claiming to have fighters from u.k. from france, and germany, other european countries as well as the united states, arab world, joining us now former u.s. ambassador to iraq john negroponte, he was also first director of u.s. national intelligence, serving under president george w. bush. ambassador, let's go straight to the islamic state of iraq and the l. >> we're told today by defense secretary ma hagel, chairman of joint chiefs of staff, that this is a threat we have never seen before. do you agree with that? is this threat so om news, and different -- ominous and

different? >> the way i would interpret what secretary hagel said, and president's actions of late to be a recognition, that we really do have a serious international terrorist threat in that part of the world. it has not gone away. notwithstanding the serious blows that were dealt to al qaeda earlier, and we're just going to have to deal with it i taken courage am from the fact that -- encouragement from fact that administration has send ground troops to advice, and assist the iraqi military, and we've undergone the airstrikes, the short of march that isil was on a couple of weeks ago appears to have been arrested, they recaptureed peshmerga captured -- or recaptureed control of the dam, i would expect that perhaps

some of the cities like mosul, and fa leunga, will be -- fallujah will be liberateed next, basically i see some pretty good news in terms of what the administration's response has been and international response, british have, horrified by a thought that it was a u.k. subject who was the executioner. >> there is also this lack of understanding, at least offered up by the administration, in any form, as to who is the islamic state. is it also al qaeda? just what are its elements, what is their design, we can talk about islamic -- but reality is that estimateed force about 15,000 at outset has swept through syria, swept through western iraq and have achieveed

victories and taken as you point-out about a third of the land there. that was not being met until u.s. air strikes began. we can talk about europeans helpful, and about the peshmerga but, without our military force there, they the islamic state were running over iraq. >> well, but we're still the strongest power on earth, i think people look to us to take a leadership role, now, encouraged by our response, i think that other forces are beginning to respond as well, there is still a long way to go i think that the iraqi armed forces need work, kurdish forces need arms and other types of assistance. then i think that both regional countries, and affected countris in europe have to make their contribution, i was encourageed to hear that british political figures talking about possibly

involving themselves in training some of the iraqi forces, i think that would be a good thi thing. lou: u.s. training has not been helpful to them. >> it was -- but now you have to recon staout some of these forces, one idea that i think not far fetched ted to take some units, the more elite ones special ops and bring them to a neighbors country like jordan and have special forces and other trainers from u.s., and u.k., and elsewhere, help you know, update their skills, and give them refresher training that is business useful. lou: it seem like only thing that is working right now is killing them, and it is interesting that has been a reserve strategy on the part of the administration. president talks about containing them. others are talking about irk rat kateing them -- eradicateing them they represent such a

threat. on which side do you come down. >> you have to take this step by step, i have to think they have to be dell with in iraq first. there is a problem in syria, but that has to be done dealt with later, i think that government has to be helped to restore the control. over the towns that it has lost. consolidate their control over the cities, then we'll have to look at next step, but i think that regaining control of iraq, and exer case of sovereignty over the full extending of the country should be the first goal, we ought to help them every way. lou: ambassador john negroponte. >> thank you. >> thank you. lou: time for a look now at results of our line poll, we asked whether you believe that president should return our troops to iraq to destroy theic lamber--islamic state, 77%% repn the affirmative. >> and tonight, do you believe that president obama and jen

attorney general holder are incapable of conducting a fair hearing in the case of brown in missouri? >> there are other interests at work as well in ferguson, missouri, that is next.

lou: coming up tonight, he was hired by michael brown's family to conduct one of 3 autopsys, and immediately debunk some witness claims that brown was shot in the back. the doctor will join us. >> and hamas admits to committing atrocities that contributeed to the war with butst o of quick action and executive-led resolution. but the obama administration does often jump -- no, leap, to

conclusions. impatient with facts if not indifferent to them, prejudgment have not been rare in this administration, listen to what president said monday regarding justice department investigation into shooting of michael brown. >> i have to be very careful about not prejudgeing, these events before investigations are completeed. because although, these are issues of local jurisdiction, you know the doj works for me, when they conduct an investigation, stroeu make sure i have to make sure i don't look like i'm putting my thumb on the scales one way or the other. lou: but the president's penchant for prejudgment goes back to the beginning of his administration, notably in 2009, following res arrest of harvard

professor gates, almost claims that the police department acted stupidly, even though he admitted me did not have the facts, wrong in his understanding of the facts and wrong in his public conclusion, president through a way -- threw away a chance to lead all americans, and showed no public sign of what should have been public embarrassment but he did do some face saving with the beer summit. >> and on the trayvon martin case, he said, if i had a son, he would look like trayvon martin. this before zimmerman was cleared of all charges, now obama administration isata against this time in ferguson, attorney generalaal promising a fair investigation even as holder said he told the leaders he understand th the pris trustf police -- a mistrust of the

police, and that not only is a terattorney general but also a black man. never shy to comment on race. he doubled down on those comments this year. just last month, attorney general claims he and the president, have been targets of racial en emists. a an animus. are you part of the solution or part of the problem? this administration has yet to give ferguson, missouri ands rest of america, the right answer. we're coming right back. >> leading forensic fac friends,

ability to gather evidence? >> sure part of the problem is people see what happened, in their own perspective, if there were an auto accident here in front of fox, you would have 5 people there you would have 5 different versions. without a bias. when you have a built in set of basibias. and any time any dies in a police confrontation, you expect upset by the family and community, and a feeling that a medical examine is just part of the police department or a cover-up. that is why the family wanted a third autopsy. lou: medical examineer. >> a fine number one forensic that thole gist -- pathologist. lou: you are one of the most highly regarded, you are second

to be brought in. now the attorney general steps forward, and said we' a third, why? what possible benefit could there be? >> the family wanted a second autopsy, they did not trust the first, i suspect all these of us will have the same findings in this matter. the -- they wanted the justice department, and the justice deputy decided they are going to get involved, gives it more gravitas, if the family expect favorable result this these investigations, and fact that justice deputy, and fbi are involved, will give it more meaning. lou: you conducted your autopsy. what was the family's first question to you? what were they most interested in. >> 8 days after the death, was doctor, did he suffer pain when

he died? that is dom only -- commonly asked, was the death painful. in this instance, 6 bullets struck the young man, only one caused his death, that was to the head, and had and brain. -- the head and brain, the other question, they knew he was shot, they wanted to know how many times, they had not been told for 8 days, that is a reason that it fueled th the -- distrut they in. lou: you were able to answer that, it was 6? >> 6 struck the young man, and he did not have any pain once the bullet struck the head, he just collapsed. no pain or suffering. lou: in our ought b autopsy, whd

you find that sufficient the greatest interest -- that is of the greatest interest to the public who is concerned about the police department? conduct? the response of the government? on all sides? >> in a situation like this, autopsy like another piece of forensic evidence, there is the forensic evidence from the police car, from the clothing, and from the autopsy, then also different eyewitnesss with varying stories, and the autopsy will show possible ways in which he was standing. how he was when the shots were fireed. but we can't do it only on the base of the ought be on op see. lou: - autopsy. lou: toxicology. >> it will be of help, there has

been a leak there may have been marijuana onboard, but it has not been officially released. if he had other drugs like pcp or ecstasy, that could be a points that he was axing bizarrely. bizarrely. lou: to be clear, you can't share that with us, because -- >> i don't know that. the first autopsy they moved blood and sent to t toxicology. >> was there any evidence in your as a result of your work, suggestions anything apart from what we've been reporting in the national media it has been asserted by police? >> no. i think that in general, the number of bullet wounds is -- we don't know how many bullets were fireeded. >> i noticed you clarified high

statmystatement about shots and refered to bullets. >> 3 were in the body, 3 went through the body, we do not know how many were fireed it is dangerous to fire in a crowded place, or a public place, and fortunate, and luck no one else was injured, as often happened, we had in new york city a little bit ago. lou: thank you, doctor. >> thank you, lou. lou: i must say, fast and hard as you travel, and you are working, you look great. >> thank you very much. >> we're coming right back, stay with us. >> hamas terrorists warn all international air travelers to stay clear of israel. >> former israeli ambassador to united states,

lou: joining us tonight from tel

aviv, former israeli ambassador daniel giller man. the 3 commanders that were killed in israeli strikes and the claim that chief military officer for hamas was killed what more can you tell us about that? >> well i would say that for the first time, lou, in about 3 or 4 weeks worky see that hamas is thrown out of balance, they did not care when their people suffered, they did not dare when children, and women were displaceed. when you hit their own commanders then you bridge the message home to them, fact that this three top commanders could probably the chief one, are out of the picture, i believe it is

not just a military blow to thm but a moral blow to them, and i belief now, as they will have to go back to the negotiating take nel cairo, i believe in a day or too, they will have much lesser hand than they had before. which is a good news for all of us. lou: the prime minister, has vowed to continue to attack until hamas and its rockets are quiet. does this seem to be add hand? that objective? >> i think so. and you see, now, as we look at bigger picture in middle east and beyond, we see really a encouragement, unfortunately, by all islamist jihadist, and hamas or isis are two branches of the same tree. and fact is that if hamas, does not come out of this campaign,

weakened, this may encourage isis, al qaeda, hezbollah and the rest of the terrorist, this is why we're all sharings same goal. of the military blow, and assure theying not gain politically in thenoringing ing negotiation tal keep doing what we need to do here, i believe as time goes on, hamas is losing more and more, despite their pro vado -- pro vado bravadoand cyclongal warfa. lou: quickly qatar, blamed in part by many for collapse of talks is in cairo, is there a se they are softening their view, and becoming more supportive of a rational bargain? >> i hope so, so far we have not seen that in case, i think that united states role it is to pull

or to really put pressure on qatar, qatar has very, very intricate strong ties with the u.s., if there is any country that can put pressure on hamas, it u.s., i hope sooner the better. >> ambassador thank you. >> thank you very much. lou: appreciate it. ambassador daniel ayalon . >> americans going home. after great care and a major unlimited cash back. let that phrase sit with you for a second. unlimited. as in, no limits on your hard-earned cash back. as in no more dealing with those rotating categories. the quicksilver card from capital one. unlimited 1.5% cash back on everything you purchase, every day. don't settle for anything less. i'll keep asking.

fact it is likely that as purpose or more important than anything else, in the fact they did well circumstance the is thy got superb carat emory hospital, which is a really top notch place with excellent physicians and nurses. that is the thing that. lou: i think that is really purpose to under score, it validates the decision to bring those two patients, because as you know, a lot of people were very anxious about idea of brings a patient with ebola into the country, at all, irrespect irrespective of the crow ben credentials of emory and the air -- caregivers this validates that decision. >> no doubt, we woe it to those people to do, that they put their lives on line.

safety we'll try to do a trial to show its efficacy, where you get it to people who need it at the same time who are determining if it works, the on worse thing you want to do is get it to people who make things worse, we've had experiences like that, it will be a plan whraoepbetween showing in actuay works and getting it to people who need it. lou: so many people most of them, hopeless, who have contracted the disease, so one expect that will there will be a desperate effort to get that to them soon. doctor thank you for joining us. >> good to be with you, lou. lou: that is it for us, coming up tomorrow. former u.s. ambassador to united nations, john bolton, and former hark! the herald angels sin
