2:00 pm
ashley webster with me there. melissa francis, don't know where you stand on scottish independence but "money" starts now. melissa: it sure does. the warning the world ignored. the president taking aim at syria many months after a monry regular, you recognize when you see him, warned of the danger waiting too long. meanwhile fresh sanctions for putin, but he is not backing down. look at what he has been firing as the world is watching the middle east. raging against the nfl. talks of a ray rice cover-up pressuring sponsors to pull the plug. stuck in a moment you can't get out of it. youtube's new album wedged firmly into your apple gadget whether you like it or not. even when they say it's not, it is always about money. diedre: huge shift in public opinion on the anniversary of 9/11 aft new "fox news poll" finds that 77% of americans
2:01 pm
believe isis is planning an attack on u.s. soil. in other polls, 61% say that action against isis is in the national interests. 71% believe that isis has the capability and resources by the way to carry out terrorist plots in the u.s. apparently the president is now listening. >> if you threaten america, you will find no safe haven. melissa: is the president as policy reversal a product of public opinion? let's bring in today's panel. we have fox business's own charlie gasparino, and jack hough of "barron's" and dominic tavella, diversified financial consultants. thanks for joining us. is he responding to public opinion and does it matter? maybe that is what it took and that's what it takes. >> what is he doing different? melissa: four hundred airstrikes in syria, that's a big deal.
2:02 pm
>> maybe. we'll see how limited they are or expansive they are. i'm hesitant to think that president obama, left of his party. left-wing base and he was a elected essentially, we should point out, not involving us in foreign wars. melissa: thanks have changed. 77% think that isis is planning an attack. >> i went to school in missouri. the "show me" state. he will have to show me for to believe that because he has been so late off the dime on this thing. melissa: go ahead. >> talked about the cornerstone of his administration, right? his cornerstone been great speech and inaction, if we don't count playing golf. crisis in egypt, nothing. crisis in libya, nothing. crisis in syria, nothing. crisis israel, nothing. ukraine, nothing. melissa: turning that around. i don't know, jack, what you do you think? >> the president's approval rating is 32%. people who give parking tickets for a living have higher approval rating than the president. numbers are too low to make a
2:03 pm
difference. not a matter of public opinion. he said he was waiting for iraq to form a government. fine. i don't know why we wouldn't have more communication months ago. >> translate what he just said. he is not really doing much. melissa: do you all think this was a lot of bluster last night? that he will not really go in and doing anything? is that what you're saying? >> as i said before the president sees himself as person who got america out of iraq. i think facts have dramatically changed on the ground. he has been slow to come around on realization we need more involvement. >> we're not going back in. we may do, may do airstrikes. by the way airstrikes into syria. there is no border between syria and iraq, let's be honest. these countries essentially, their borders have evaporated thanks to isis. saying we'll bomb syria is not saying much. all it is saying where the enemy is we might do some limited -- >> saying something to the people who have to fly the bombs. >> of course. but let's be honest here.
2:04 pm
we don't know these -- melissa: we'll talk a lot more about this going forward in this show. i want to move it back to the market for a second. get them while they're hot. if first time twitter is raising money through a $1.5 billion debt offering. they haven't said exactly what they're going to do with the money. where proceeds are going to go. dominic, what do you think about this? would you buy this debt? >> what i found interesting was convertible bond. high-yield bond market, companies have really no reason to issue convertible bond. they have been a real small amount issued compared to historical. melissa: what does that tell you? >> they're looking at price of the stock. it is cheaper for them to issue a bond tied into the price of the stock. i think it reflects on price of the stock and growth potential. >> doing convertible issue i think twitter will be able to borrow at near zero percent because it has a frothy stock. so when someone backs up a big money truck, do you want some and say yes. you find use for later. melissa: not that they're not revealing what they will do with
2:05 pm
it. don't have a plan. take the money while you can. that's a good one. >> in zero percent interest rate environment why wouldn't you buy it? >> why didn't they go corporate debt instead of convertible debt? melissa: speaking of money, some of britain's largest banks are threatening to shift bases to england if scotland votes for independence next week, including this, the royal bank of scotland. they are leaving. they have been there since the 1720s. meanwhile the contagion begins as separatist its in northern spain took to the streets to demand separatist vote. this is pretty amazing. this is what people were afraid of. there would be a big pile-on. whether it was italy or spain. >> why should they be afraid? melissa: i don't know, more instability? >> from a fiscal standpoint this is very good for great britain. scotland is very poor country. it is pretty poor. it is not a place -- melissa: they have got golf. >> they have golf but they don't have much else.
2:06 pm
transfer of wealth generally from england to scotland. same thing with southern italy. melissa: why is england fighting this so hard? >> i think, by the way not fiscal sense because, numbers don't add up. >> for these banks you can't be too big to fail if the companies stops backstopping your success as independent scotland. melissa: yeah. >> they're capital struck to exist in england as opposed to exist in scotland. this has huge implications including for the continent what is going on in spain. maybe similar thing happens there. melissa: venice? venetians? >> should get out -- >> southern italy, if the italians could get rid of southern italy -- melissa: i threw that out there for charlie. >> they would do it tomorrow. look who is revolting asking for independence, some of poorest parts of country where there is transfer of wealth to them. don't can me why they do it. it makes no sense. if this happens would be better off fiscally rest of britain.
2:07 pm
melissa: hell no, guacamole. he shut down one store in pennsylvania. they positive ad sign, locked the doors, due to what they call borderline sweatshop conditions. they post ad sign up front. so funny. ask our corporate office why employees are working in sweatshop conditions. entire management and crew resigned. people over profits. the store opened later this afternoon. >> don't buy a burrito there until you're sure workers are happy. melissa: that's a good point. >> this was overtime issue. this is indicative what is going on around the country. melissa: you will make this serious? i love you for that. >> corporations are making their own employees work more doing less. they don't want to hire that next employee. we saw that in unemployment numbers. melissa: by the way, mr. raise the minimum wage in the middle, jack hough -- >> pay people decently. melissa: you beat me to it. 8.50, to 9.50 an hour.
2:08 pm
folks are not happy. >> they're not on the minority list. >> i washed dishes as a kid. we never got overtime. we worked. melissa: you have done every job. every time -- are have you guys noticed that? charlie, i was in security. i washed dishes. i parked cars. >> i did that. melissa: i loaded luggage. >> i did that. melissa: i don't know, what else didn't you do. did nails. >> i didn't do that. melissa: cut hair. >> that is called, that is called working your way through -- melissa: my goodness. nfl facing pressure from the pocket. why the ray rice scandal could mean a billion dollar hit from corporate sponsors. >> my phone is ringing. melissa: president obama finally lays out his plan, wit it be enough to stem the tide of terrorism. our experts break it down. be interesting to see if you see charlie gasparino ever again on this show again. coming up. ♪ friday night, buddy.
2:09 pm
2:11 pm
2:12 pm
against these terrorists. second, we will increase our support to forces fighting these terrorists on the ground. third, we will continue to draw on our substantial counterterrorism capabilities to prevent isil attacks. fourth, we will continue to provide humanitarian assistance to innocent civilians who have been displaced by this terrorist organization. melissa: so it is an improvement from we don't have a strategy yet but is it actually enough? joining me fox news's strategic analyst, lt. colonel ralph peters. we also have steven yates, ceo of the d.c. international advisory. thank you both for joining us. colonel peters, i will start with you. do we have a strategy now? >> yes, we have a political strategy. do which have a military strategy? not a serious one. over, many, many programs, melissa with the president's well-delivered, empty speech last night was a profound disconnect between stated ends and means. he said he wants to to destroy
2:13 pm
the islamic state. the means he identified for doing so are preposterously minimal. he is willing to outlast, he says go into syria with limited airstrikes but you can't destroy, you can not destroy this vast terrorist organization over the air. the surrogates on the ground, are not capable, and will not be capable. there will never be in our lifetimes a thoroughly integrated, multi-ethnic, multifaith iraqi army, et cetera, et cetera. can't get there from here. >> let me bring steven yates into the conversation. the colonel made the point we backed ourselves into a corner by not having boots on the ground. is that a a mistake in your mind? >> i think it is mistake. i don't know why you take options off the table but the president created problems for himself in the introduction to his strategy where he tried to
2:14 pm
say that the i in isil he likes to refer to is not islamic. obviously it's a islamic movement. that is the problem, if you can't name enemy and describe the enemy and you can't have strategy to defeat it. he refers to isil, in the levant, the only areas he talked about taking action are iraq and syria. these are minimal actions. cut and pace already in train, none of which changed tracks on the ground. i agree completely, it is not a serious strategy. melissa: sounds like you both believe he doesn't fundamentally understand and grasp the problem. colonel peters, is that it? >> there is even more to it. he refuses now to use the term islamist terrorist. look, islamic state, don't call them the presbyterian committee. they call them islamic state. tens of thousands of muslims have joined them to wage jihad. the president doesn't get that, to decide what islamist and what is not. even beyond his unwillingness to
2:15 pm
grapple with, frankly the decayed state of much of middle eastern islam, sad to say, rerefuses to understand our military. none of his close trusted advisors have any military experience. he always wants to get off cheap. and the quickest way to run up expensive butcher's bill in the long run to try to do military operation on the cheap. melissa, this guy, our president, he is like the kid who thinks he is so smart he doesn't have to do his home bork. then gets blindsided by an "f" on the pop quiz. melissa: steven, give you the last word. what would you like to see him come out and do right now? >> he needs to number one, aim the enemy we aim to defeat correctly. but i think the president has really come out and said he wants to organize a coalition and come up with a strategy, when he really should have had a strategy that the coalition is based around. there are some elements in the region you might work with but that is not the way they approached this. melissa: meanwhile, did you see
2:16 pm
this? this is russia in the midst of everything that is going on, deciding to test an intercontinental nuclear missile yesterday. it is the first of three tests in the coming months. colonel peters, is it an accident that he is doing this right now as the president is grappling with this other very serious problem in the other direction? what is the message that he is sending to our president? >> well, the answer to the question, nyet. putin's answer is -- [speaking russia] russia is a great power. he is doing this partly to, for domestic consumption. he has almost 90% approval rating. he is doing it to unsettle the europeans so think don't impose, actually activate the next round of sanctions. he is doing it to screw with
2:17 pm
obama. he likes rubbing obama's face in it. and you know, the president said, he would not tolerate a russian invasion of ukraine. melissa: yeah. >> putin invaded ukraine and the president's solution was, don't call it an invasion. melissa: really rubbing his nose in it. thanks to both of you. appreciate it. next on "money," it has been 13 years since terror attacks changed the way we think about this date, september 11th. we asked people on the street, when you got up today, and went about your daily routine, given the renewed threats, did you do anything differently today? we're going to share their answers and some of yours. more "money" coming up.

13th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the world trade center and pentagon. andy card, george w. bush's chief of staff, was the man, you remember this, in this historic video, he was alerting the president of the news that would change the world forever. look at reaction. he was on "opening bell" with bartiromo this morning. he remembers how that moment went. >> my mind passed to fear by passengers on commercial jetliner. they had to know it was not gaining altitude. i don't know why my mind went there but that is where it went. melissa: in light of renewed threats from isis, when we asked people on the street when you got up this 9/11 this year, did you do anything differently? did you take special precautions? here is what they said. >> my girlfriend told me to not take the subway. i still took the subway.
2:22 pm
i have haven't changed my routine. >> i'm not concerned, not at all. >> i took the subway, it is little intimidating, police around, military, as americans. we have to be brave. >> i'm not going to sit there and walk home or, you know, whatever. because it is 9/11. i'm not going to do that. >> just another day, you know. just another day, for something to remember. >> felt comfort and safe, first day here, i felt comfortable walk around instead of being a visitor. >> we feel safe here especially this day. >> we think about it because at the end of the day you can't forget. no, i wouldn't let terrorism change the way i think about every day being in new york. so no, absolutely not. melissa: tough new yorkers. let's go back to the panel, charlie, jack, dominic are back with us. those folks came to work. that's why they were on the street and why we were able to ask them. i do know people stayed home as a result. did you do anything differently. >> no.
2:23 pm
my wife told me, be careful. i would say this, 9/11 to me is etched in my memory like most new yorkers. i was at world trade, at the world financial center at the time, working at "the wall street journal" i had a doctors appointment that day, or else, i would have been walking right by the trade center when this occurred. so, and i remember what happened. i was in downtown new york, and i come out of the doctor's office and i see people just running up lafayette street where the astor place train station. it was insane situation. i ducked into a, there is a crunch fitness there that worked out n i ducked into there. and then i witnessed the twin towers nalling. i tell you i started crying. -- falling. my dad was iron worker. my dad worked on both trade centers. when i was a kid i remember him taking me down there. the trade center was symbol of global capitalism. when they destroyed it, the rebuilding effort was amazing of
2:24 pm
the i. i was down there three days after i and i was covering it for the journal. the part of the world financial center that wasn't destroyed was a morgue. melissa: incredible you still went about your routine. people this year who felt different, given, that the when the most recent terrorists were released, they said i will see you in new york, those words, echoing. >> melissa, after all these years you would think we would feel safer, right? melissa: no. >> get to billions and trillions of dollars been spent. 3,000 more of our children, who died in iraq, citizens, we think we feel don't. as a nation we don't feel safer. we start going through the airports. still making us take off our shoes. melissa: do you feel safer, jack? >> one of the things i think really changed, before the world trade center attacks, there were years which the taliban in afghanistan was committing these heinous acts. only people paying attention were news nerds, reading international pages on the paper. now we've seen with isis, syria in iraq, obviously this has been, killing of two americans
2:25 pm
there. but people are more on top of this now with realization, we can't allow groups. >> not much really changed. think about it. >> that's right. we still have a caliphate in the middle east. beheadings occur regularly. we have homegrown terrorism. we're safer today than we were? >> no. >> in 2011? melissa: you guys remember the stock market, resiliently reopened five days of at attacks that september. nicole petallides is down at the new york stock exchange now. what is the feeling there today? >> today is a day that some traders said they stopped by in the area there to remember, to give recognition that certainly was due. it is, it is a day here that people walk around. they're somber. they still wear their flag ties on fridays. many of them, still remember the day obviously, we will all never forget. however that being said, there is sense of resiliency. i asked people if they took special ways to work. took off work. if they had terror plans. those kind of things.
2:26 pm
really less so. people said listen, i'm taking train. i'm fighting terrorists doing it the way i always do it. some talked about charities, we have cheryl casone at one of the charities, making it a charity day. definitely a day to remember. another trader circulate ad printed story, nice one at that. i spoke to a veteran helping in search-and-rescue in the seven days after, who said it was just a beautiful showing of humanity as everybody got together. but certainly a day, that feels a little uneasy. last but not least, one trader says, nicole, one thing i do differently. i won't go outside and look around. i will flee. there is feeling of nervousness here. melissa: yeah. thanks to all of you. we'll have more coverage of 9/11. be sure to watch a special edition of fox news reporting. it is the timeline of terror, tonight at 10:00 p.m. eastern on the fox business network. more intrigue into what the nfl knew and when, about that ray rice video. and commissioner roger goodell

2:31 pm
bruce turkel. lee, start with you, what they care about is money, the show is called "money," their sponsorships every year, if the sponsors start to put pressure on the league, is that it for roger goodell? >> the owners are steadfastly in his corner. he has made them incredible amounts of money, franchise values have soared. dallas cowboys are worth 3.2 billion dollars. they will defend him as long as they can. they love their own franchises more. if sponsorship money were to start to move away, then goodell will become expendable. melissa: let me bring a couple things to your attention. somebody posting on cover girl, a sponsor on facebook page, hey cover girl, do you make foundation that covers bruises from being punched in the face by an nfl player? 45% of the fan base is women.
2:32 pm
nielsen says it's 35%. i think the pressure is coming to bear. dan, what do you think? >> there is certainly pressure there, and sponsors did start to walk away, and marriott put out a statement saying they are watching the situation, no doubt the owners might take a different look at roger goodell, the commissioner, there is no evidence at this point it's reached that level, and, you know, honestly, i talked to a lot of people, a lot of people in the league, they are baffled why he is such a pinata. their point is. melissa: they're baffled that goodell is such a pinata? >> they are baffled in the situation. melissa: i think because he makes 44 million dollars and claiming he didn't see a tape. if he didn't see it, shame on him, if he did, wow, shame on him. bruce, tell me what you think, you're the marketing maven. do the sponsors pull away based on this?
2:33 pm
what's your bet? >> my bet is that they do. it's going to happen slowly and then to mix my sports metaphors it's going to hockey stick, because the fans are going to start chipping away on social media. you read that absolutely poignant cover girl comment, the official beauty sponsor of the nfl. as the consumers start making opinions known, we're going to have problems and it's going to happen sooner and sooner and finally result in a cataclysmic message. melissa: dan, you disagree. go ahead. i disagree, if every time a professional athlete did something you were going predict this is the end of the economics of the sport. melissa: no. >> that's not what he said. melissa: he said they handled this poorly. >> no doubt it's been botched. unless you -- they have come out with a domestic violence policy, they have hired robert mueller. they botched it. there's no doubt about it. melissa: here's another example. not a great way for thursday night football to debut on cbs
2:34 pm
tonight before the ravens, ray rice's former team takes on the steelers tonight? rihanna! who is a notable victim of domestic violence is singing the opening theme song before the ravens go on. i mean, bruce, give me your marketing take on that one, wow. >> clearly that's a bad coincidence, but let me get to my point. melissa: do something about it. >> you don't get trouble for what you did. just like washington, you get in trouble for the cover-up, and the fact that we saw him drag his fiancee at the time out of an elevator but didn't see what happened, that wasn't enough? and this business about 43% are women, 33% are women, that's not the point! look, i'm a son, a husband, a father and a brother, so the men watching the game should care as well. this is going to get bigger and bigger, especially if they keep handling it the way they're
2:35 pm
doing. melissa: time will tell, thanks to all three of you. the president authorizing airstrikes on syria for the first time. is it too little too late? plus as the crisis escalates in the middle east, how will this hit you at the pump? at the end of the day, it is all about your wallet. patented sonic technology

2:40 pm
the past the islamic forum for democracy. i have been thinking about you so much in the months since you were on the show, you said again and again and again, america has got to get involved in syria, and one of the things you talked about was that if we didn't, the force that was going to come into back up were those opposed to assad was going to be a force that was so much more terrible than al qaeda even, and you frankly stopped coming on our show because you were frustrated about america not getting involved and you said i'm putting my family in danger, your family in syria by coming on the show again and again and it doesn't seem to be doing any good. i want to ask you so many of your words have come true, how is your family now, where are they? what is the latest? . >> well, you know the moderates, those we thought had the future of syria are depressed, apathetic, they're beaten, they're lost, and you know they're trying to survive,
2:41 pm
they've been suffering terror famines. to see the president yesterday take credit for removal of chemical weapons as if that was some type of success in syria policy, isis is a direct product of that, and our families have now seen one major front against the military massacring machine of assad being turned into two major fronts that assad has not been fighting. only force fighting isis is the free syria army and they find themselves hiding from barrel bombs from the regime and then beheadings and sharia states from isis, and it's unfathomable. they never thought in 2014 this would be happening. >> you predicted this terrible situation would happen, now it has blown up into exactly what you described. what do you think of what the president said he's going to do? will that help? if he does go in with airstrikes in syria? do you welcome that? do you think it will make a difference? >> as i said from three years
2:42 pm
ago, we'll take what we can get especially from the president. finally saying america does have a role, we'll believe it when it happens. if he just does it in northern iraq, it will do nothing. isis' main headquarters is in raqaa, he has to bomb the central command, it has to be part of the regime change. isis exists as a creation of the assad regime and he talked about the opposition, but i saw no vision, no strategy over the next five to ten years, he talked about islam as if he was telling us muslims who's muslim and who's not and the ideology was created in saudi arabia and the allies he calls our allies are the source of that radicalism. melissa: there is the narrative taken hold that says if youpple dictator now matter how evil he is. up in his way comes, this extreme group that is even worse, and there are those,
2:43 pm
especially rand paul who said when you topple someone like assad, you make the problem worse. what do you say to those people? >> well, if we really believe that god endowed us with equal rights and we are liberty minded individuals, i'm a libertarian small as rand is, do we believe the muslims and the arabs don't deserve that right to freedom? somehow it's a light switch they're going to switch. the dictators create this radicalism in every country, syria, saudi arabia, pakistan, because that's the formula they want us to stand back and say okay, we have to settle for the lesser of two evils which is a bigoted, racist approach to a middle east that could be evolving into free markets into a type of living and democracy that our families came to enjoy in the west. it needs reform, it needs a strategy, a vision. none of that is part of the
2:44 pm
