it's 5:00 in new york city. this is "the five." it fight over iraq's largest oil refinery as the islamic state of iraq and syria continues its push toward baghd baghdad. earlier today president obama finally spoke out on the terror group, and military options are not off the table. >> we will be prepared to take targeted and precise military action if and when we determine that the situation on the ground requires it. >> he did stress, however, that this will not include boots on the ground. >> let me repeat, what i've said

in the past, american combat troops are not going to be fighting in iraq again. >> but in the end, he went back to the old well, ducking ownership, and, of course, blaming bush. >> but what's clear from the last decade is the need for the united states to ask hard questions before we take action abroad. particularly military action. >> okay. he laid out five points, and we won't go into it. but the takeaway at least, no boots on the ground, but military option's on the table. >> okay, so he'll send some advisers over. it's a little bit of a contradiction, because he blamed maliki for not giving immunity for u.s. troops earlier. but do these current advisers have any kind of legal immunity? it's a pretty good question. >> they say they don't need it. >> i guess they don't need it now, okay.

it's a very hypocritical contradictory administration. i don't know what the advisers are going to do, eric. i don't understand why we would bomb and hurt a number of civilians just -- i think delaying the inevitable. isis is the group that essentially hugs the population. it is too late. it is sliding into a sectarian civil war. it is not the job of the united states of america to come in and defend maliki and his 900-person army and the shia militia if they can't do it themselves. i would have liked what president obama did better if he would have said, i'm not going to do anything. i'm not. let them fight it out. >> let them fight it out. jennifer griffin reported earlier that isis is becoming more of an army than a terror group. does that change it for you? >> no, this is predictable. we could have seen this coming when we invaded iraq. the fact is, there are a lot of

shia out there to fight. i wouldn't be so quick to give up baghdad here or give up the oil refinery. there's a lot of questions whether this group has it or not. the fact that there was a lack of intelligence bothers me. the thing is, you can't put together something like this and move on the refinery -- >> did obama make the right call saying they would send up to 300 security advisers and maybe some air missions, targeted and precise military actions. >> all you're going to do -- what else are you going to do. >> your thoughts on what the package president obama presents. >> yesterday, president obama invited the congressional leaders to the oval office. the reports from that is that the president had not come to any firm decisions, and that it was more of a general discussion. less than 24 hours later, the president i guess maybe felt compelled to come to the podium and say he was going to send these 300 security advisers.

i think he also made a case today for why it was irresponsible, dangerously so, to leave iraq without an agreement in 2011. however, i also at this point, realistic and logical, and you sometimes just ha to be for what's going to happen. you have 300 advisers. can they go and recommend something to president obama that he will accept. chances are, no. if you look at most of the security advisers that have left the administration, including secretary gates and secretary clinton, two of the main things they recommended were rejected by president obama. so i don't know -- i'm open to hearing what these advisers will rem. but as andrea said, once these terrorists as their take tick is, to get immersed into the civilian population, not exactly sure what we'll be able to do. my last point is, president obama took the oath to preserve, protect and defend the country. i believe that he takes that oath very seriously.

i do not understand yet, and i'm willing to have an open mind on it, how inaction actually will allow him to fulfill that obligation. >> a lot of people have floated the idea of splitting up iraq into three groups, with the sunnis, shia and not one ben if it of a sector over another. the most important part of iraq is the oil installations in the southern and the water ports. that's where the most value is. who gets that, and who decides that? >> where they are, with the shia. where they are is with the kurds. where they're not is with the sunnis. what you have to do, when you look at all three, if you had to take a group that acted like adults which is thankful for the u.s. help, prior to the invasion, is the kurds. we said, we're going to give you a no-fly zone. they said, that's all we need. evidently it looks like western europe. right now they need some protection. they've got rusty old guns going

against our new stuff, which the sunni have taken away because the shia have dropped their weapons. they have a few humvees and using it possibly against our advisers. those advisers are going in to advise things on the ground to help those who don't want to fight. i ask you this. when there is a warrant put out for the vice president's arrest because he's suing, is that a hint maybe things are going afoul. i ask you in february, when fallujah falls to the isis group, is that a hint something's going afoul. why are we waiting until today, let alone last friday -- >> that's the question, he was elected by the people to promise that the sunnis would be included in the government and he reneged on it. >> expand, while we're waiting before we do what? >> if you want to affect things behind the scene, use force. but having said that, there is no force to keep our leverage on

the ground and keep iran out. after we brought peace on the region and they ran on it and got elected on it. i want to build on what you said. you said why isn't the intelligence better. the reason the intelligence isn't better is because we totally pulled out and left. why is maliki allowed to do what he's doing. >> he asked us to leave and we did. president obama never really -- but brian, you're asking president obama to do something that he never wanted to do. he's actually now calling for political solution, in a country that was never ready for democracy. it is -- let me finish. it was deeply rooted in ethnic hatred from the get-go. we made the mistake of thinking that somehow, when they have people's heads on a stick, they're federalists. >> we worked to get the surge going. that's different. >> we don't know -- part of the problem is, we're not sure who we're arming, who we're backing. >> that's right. >> they keep jumping from one

country to another, changing flags, taking the uniforms off. here's where you get in real trouble. when you start playing games with people who hate you. when you start negotiating with people who hate you. can you roll it? >> we are interested in communicating with iran to make clear that the iranians know what we're thinking, and we know what they're thinking. >> our view is that iran can play a constructive role, if it is helping to send the same message to the iraqi government that we're sending, which is, that iraqi only holds together if it's inclusive. >> is this a dangerous tactic to play games negotiating with iran? >> absolutely. they're not our friend. they're already in -- which is the biggest threat. they already do have a presence with the qods force in iran.

this is the same president who said let's allow nato to nuclear disarm western europe. why? because he said iran wasn't a threat. i can't follow this white house. so i would much rather have us out of that region and not participating in that region rather than do what they've done up to this point which is ignore all the signs, ignore the advice from military leaders. this is not a president committed to just about anything, let alone getting involved in a crisis, a civil war in the middle east. which he seems very comfortable allowing them to. if he's not comfortable with it, he's certainly making it very easy for them to do. >> vice president biden was the if irs to -- >> president obama and john kerry, we're going to work with iraq. >> the one thing that is almost certain that saddam hussein, as

much as we disliked him, is the one thing that kept the iranians in check. >> please, you know, i love you, brother, i love you, but you've got to stay on -- we're talking about president obama and john kerry saying they're going to negotiate with the people who want us off the map and want israel off the map. >> the one thing iranians don't want is to have a sunni take over baghdad. we never should have been there in the first place. >> i think what the administration is trying to tell us is that you don't have a choice. because i actually think that -- i'm fine to argue that 2003 invasion, as long as we also then are honest about what happened in 2011. which we talked about here. i want to mention one thing about john kerry. one thing president obama said today is that he is sending secretary kerry now to iraq to deal with it. you know in the last several months there's been no high-level contacts between the

obama administration and anyone in iraq. so now we're sending the secretary of state who has spent the last almost two years on a failed mission to try to bring the israelis and palestinians together when they're basically allowing iraq to go further and further into a politically and diplomatic terrible situation. so now john kerry has to go back and try to fix a problem that i just don't see that the administration laid it out today. >> do we care what iraq falls into it? >> yes. >> why? >> what happened in afghanistan? >> they -- >> al qaeda just sat there. this group is worse than al qaeda, according to al qaeda. >> we're going to stop them? boots on the ground and stop them? >> there are absolutely ways to do it, and ignoring it is not the way to do it. >> how would you suggest then that america's actually going to be able to fulfill its obligation to protect the country from terrorist attack if we allow a safe haven that's

erasing borders from 1916 and having all of this territory in order to bring foreign fighters to that area to fight and come back into our countries? how do you expect -- >> there are other places they will try to do that. i think we're much better equipped to do it. we have no reason except to protect -- >> except for -- >> i have no faith in being able to look at history and say the iranians and afghanis are going to be brought under control. it's absurd. >> what if it's just a lone wolf? how are you going to track them? >> i assume that the -- >> you assume. that's what bothers me. who in the world -- please, if you could just show me, who has suggested sending 20,000 troops? another straw man. obama says that because he's fighting against something that doesn't exist. >> okay. so without troops in iraq, is there any chance to save iraq? >> listen, 2011 it was done. they took their hands off the wheel and turned around.

it was like japan and germany, and the president pulled out because he didn't like -- >> it goes like this. we've got to wrap the segment up. next up, ed henry is going to join us. he mixed it up with jay carney on his last day as press secretary yesterday. we'll ask him about that. and later, don't miss a very special segment from the 2014 special olympics. andrea's going to have that to use, so stick around.

yesterday was jay carney's last day as press secretary. >> yea! >> eric. he went one more round with our very own ed henry.

>> what happened to lois lerner? will the white house guarantee your work to find them? >> as the irs has said, ed, they're producing 67,000 e-mails sent or received from lois lerner. we asked if we would produce them. we did in fact do a search for all communications between lois lerner and any person within the executive office of the president for this period. we found zero e-mails, sorry to disappoint. >> white house correspondent is with us now. ed, does the white house have any idea the enormity of this story, and how arrogant that sounds that they looked and they have nothing, sorry to disappoint? >> well, look, they genuinely believe inside the white house that this is much ado about nothing. when jay carney said, look, there were 67,000 e-mails turned over that were sent or received by lois lerner, but everything knows who's been either in politics, in i investigation,

the key is maybe the other 100, or the other five, or the other two e-mails that are not turned over. we, frankly, don't know what else might be out there. now we're hearing the e-mail crashed, the hard drive's been destroyed. nobody really knows. and lawmakers on the hill are now trying to get to the bottom of it. in terms of the fact jay carney saying, look, they did a search and there were no e-mails between lois lerner and anyone inside the white house, that obviously still leaves open the possibility e-mails between lois lerner and democrats on the hill, if -- if -- if she was targeting conservative groups saying liberal groups were also targeted. frankly, we don't know the scope of this thing if e-mails are missing. that's the bottom line. >> any indication, ed, that there's a democrat as outraged at the irs's behavior and tongue-in-cheek i've lost all my homework excuse, that six other higher ups, including lois lerner, have brought to the table? any indication that things have

changed come hearing time on the committee? >> no. this is mostly republicans raising a stink about it. i think what's interesting would be if the irs was investigating brian killmead, and you're saying, look, i'm trying to prove that i paid my taxes or got the right reimbursement, i just can't find the e-mail. >> i think they'll cut me some slack. >> you're a good guy, i think they would. >> i'm going to go clean my server. >> i want to mention my point is maybe they don't think they have a problem. the gallup poll showed today president obama is under 50% of every income bracket, every gender and every age. and so i do think some of these things are taking a toll and they don't want to admit it. >> i didn't want to be flippant with you. i understand your question, it's a valid one. i just think inside the white house, from the president on down, the president publicly said this is a phony scandal.

he said there's not a smidgen of corruption. i'm trying to answer your question honestly, they don't believe this is a real scandal. the poll you mentioned is interesting. i think the nbc "wall street journal" poll from yesterday which is a very respected nonpartisan poll, it said a majority of the public doesn't believe the president can lead during the rest of his term. i don't think that's just about the irs, it might be about a whole host of issues. that suggests credibility problems. >> so first, tell us the e-mails -- they say the e-mails were lost. it's probably sitting on the hard drive. then they conveniently said today, oh, those hard drives, we threw them out by accident. we accidently threw them out or recycled them or whatever. it becomes less and less believable, ludicrous, out of control. do they really think we're that stupid? i mean, let's sit there and go, look at jay carney, or josh earnest and go, am i supposed to report this to our viewers that this actually happened?

>> i think jay carney does raise a valid point that if 67,000 e-mails have been turned over, related to lois lerner, we should acknowledge that there has been some cooperation in this investigation. their allegation, though, then, the implication there, from the white house is, we've turned over all those e-mails so there's nothing else here, move on. when you hear that -- you know, a hard drive was destroyed, we just don't have it anymore, obviously an eyebrow is raised. i have no evidence there was a more massive scandal. i'm not going to darkly hint at anything. but certainly as a reporter, your ears go up, your eyebrows go up, everything gets curious. >> that's my job. i'm not going to hint that this is a cover-up, this is a scandal, this is conspiracy. we'll find out later. >> let's get andrea in here. if we could pivot to iraq. the president, of course, today announcing he's going to send 300 military advisers from the united states, to help the iraqi military.

little bit of a contradiction, though. today he blamed maliki for that status of forces agreement that the white house said, look, it didn't give immunity to american troops, that's why he had to leave. any legal immunity for the legal advisers? >> on the face it doesn't appear there's legal immunity. john carl shouted to the president as he walked out of the room, is there legal immunity for these troops, he didn't answer. they believe there's legal immunity because these military advisers will be around the u.s. embassy in baghdad, embassy personnel, they'll have legal immunity, the white house says. we'll see obviously if the military advisers have to respond to something, these militants get closer to baghdad and they get drawn into something, will they still have legal immunity if somebody accidently gets killed, an iraqi citizen. so that's on the table. >> ed, does it make you feel good, as it should any human being, to be able to give something to somebody else, you

gave jay carney one of his great wishes, to get rid of you out of the room. do you guys have as contentious relationship as it looks like, or do you yell at each other and go drink afterwards? >> i haven't had a drink with jay carney in a long time. >> that doesn't mean you haven't had a drink in a long time. >> it got pretty contentious. i'm trying to look at the peak of the table here. it used to get contentious with the lady there at the table, dana, and we've since patched it up. >> i'm trying to remember when you were at cnn and i was at the white house if you ever bought me a drink. i think the answer was no. >> wait a second -- >> when you're in new york city, you can make it up to ne. >> i bought you a cup of tea across lafayette park. >> oh, they have the best tea. they had the best tea. >> you used to take a walk, you called it a loop around the white house grounds. i would like to sneak up behind you to try to get some information. >> that's true. >> i bought you tea. >> that's getting interesting.

>> it's not that interesting. thanks, ed. if you're planning a trip to mexico anytime soon, bill o'reilly is going to try to talk you out of that. >> it's time for all of us to stop going there. that country's not our friend. >> stay tuned. [ male announcer ] identity theft ...

it knows, and helps the millions of people that are crossing its territory to enter the usa illegally. add to that, the marine who has post-traumatic stress disorder incarcerated down there. and you have mexican president nieto give ugh the middle finger. you know what, mr. nieto? you know what? i'm not going to your country. and i'm asking every american to boycott you. because you and your government is harming the usa. >> i 100% agree. i think we have a lot of choices when it comes to vacationing. what mexico relies on is the tourist dollar. that's the only thing that gets their attention. hunter got some stats. there's been 300 separate times where mexican military have come into the u.s. since 2004. how many times have they kept

them in captivity? we send them back to where they belong. i think it's about time mexico, if the president's not going to demand it, i think it's time the average american citizen like the average bill o'reilly makes that demand. >> it's great. i've never been for boycotts. i'm against boycotts. i don't like that. by the way, bill o'reilly get along because i like to push back on some of the things he has to say. listen, i disagree with bill on this. i think we need to press, i think we need to do it diplomatically, in the media, great, go for it. but to ask americans not to go there, i think that's asking too much. how about rather than boycott, vacationing in mexico, threaten mexico. we'll send your people back. we're going to send back all those people ta are flooding our borders if you don't fix this situation. i think that might get their attention. >> that's the border state. these kids are coming into our country at a dizzying rate and make us look like terrible people because we can't absorb

them all. but they're walking through mexico. >> i have no plans to go there anyway -- >> so technically you're onboard. >> technically. but here's the danger of calling for a boycott. the story now today is the boycott. we have not talked about, or shown pictures of all the children who are being sent across. you actually stop putting the pressure where it actually needs to be, which is on mexico for what you just said, which is allowing them to come across, rather than on the boycott. they're not mutually exclusive, why not do both? i don't think this administration thinks it's a crime to cross over the border illegally. they want to reward them. it would be if we solved the immigration issue. and started sending them back. a huge hit to the wallet of mexico. because so many come here, work, and send the money back to mexico and don't keep it in the united states. however, i like what bill o'reilly's saying. i looked at a couple of mexico destinations, and i thought, you know what, i'm not going to

mexico. i'm not going to spend my money there. if thousands and thousands of americans did that, it maybe would wake them up a little bit. i agree with bill on this. >> what about montauk? >> yeah, great place. can't wait to get there. >> real quick, hillary clinton said i would tell those kids, you've got to go home, you can't stay. >> the northern states of that country, i lived in guadalajara for two years, the northern states are run by the military and the drug cartels. that's why the kids are coming across. there's 50,000 deaths on the border. >> these kids are coming from honduras and guatemala. >> the drug cartels are getting into america through mexico. >> that's right. >> you lived in guadalajara? >> yeah. >> there are many layers to bob -- >> that's a story.

>> are you kind of ready for surgery? >> i want to make sure your block is long. why don't i get out now while i still have a little credibility with the control room. >> okay, fine. up next, you'll see special athletes doing some remarkable things. andrea's been keeping close tabs on the special olympics this week. she even helped kick off the games. that is coming up only if you keep it on "the five."

there is a much more exciting porting event happening right now than the world cup. it's the 2014 special olympics. and i had the honor of taking part in the opening ceremonies on sunday. these games are very close to my heart, and you're about to see

why. >> welcome! >> reporter: the 2014 usa special olympics are under way. new jersey is the proud state to host the games this year. more than 4,000 athletes of all ages from all 50 states and washington, d.c. are competing in 16 sports. tennis, basketball, baseball, and soccer. special olympics were founded in 1968 by eunice kennedy shriver, sister of president jfk. >> disabled people are not unable. >> reporter: shriver believed if people with intellectual disabilities were given the same opportunities as everyone else, they would accomplish far more than anyone thought possible. she was right. 46 years later, 4 million athletes now compete for gold in more than 170 countries.

i had the opportunity to speak with her son timothy before the opening ceremonies. could your mom ever have imagined it getting so big and successful? >> i think she imagines when people's hearts open, the world can change. that was always her vision. that through sports, we could bring people together. and just crack them open. >> reporter: i had the incredible honor on june 15th to co-host the parade of athletes in newark, new jersey. my younger brother, daniel, was also a special olympian. he passed away last august. daniel had autism, and he never spoke, but boy, did he love being an athlete. daniel was an equestrian who won multiple medals. he made all of us who loved him so very proud. >> i'm honored to be here today and humbled to celebrate his memory, and give back and thank

so many of the volunteers. >> reporter: like my brother, 24-year-old zach from team new jersey has autism. he played goalie in soccer. zach didn't speak until he was 5 years old. but that's all changed. he's going to college in the fall. and he lobbied lawmakers for the special olympics. i caught up with zach for the torch run that kicked off outside fox news. what do you love most about the game? >> well, competing hard, trying my best. we're going to try to win all the gold medals. >> yes! >> reporter: zach and his team are on their way. >> i did not allow any goals. i saw shots going toward the goal, and i was there to stop it. >> reporter: this is zach's 16th year competing in the games. how much longer does he want to play? >> maybe my whole life. >> reporter: people would often describe my brother as special

needs, but i always said he was uniquely special. and that's what all these athletes around the globe are, uniquely special champions. >> the closing ceremony is tomorrow. i actually have a very exciting update for you about zach. his team is going to go for the gold as you heard him say. and guess what, they did it this morning. team new jersey won soccer gold after defeating team texas. congratulations, zach, and team new jersey. >> all the things you have done, that was one of the most moving pieces of footage, and you are to be congratulated. that brings something special to you. >> it really does. >> you have that connection.

that was just -- i don't know who helped put that together, but it was unbelievably good. >> our producer here at "the five" spent hours and hours and hours on what she called a labor of love to put that thing together. so susan, thank you. >> it was excellent. you know what i love about it, too, for all that's going on in the news in the last couple of weeks, and everybody watching the news, they want to watch the news and want to know what's going on, but they need a little bit of a lift, and you gave it to them. i hope we show it again. >> originally i wanted to get involved when i heard 21st century fox, our parent company, was going to be a sponsor. i wanted to have dan there. when he passed away in august, i thought, i really want to play a role in this. he couldn't compete because he had a seizure disorder as he got older so it was hard for him to ride the horses and compete in the sports. i grew up with dan, our older siblings grew up together, and my parents took a break and had dan me and me, so we grew up

together. if you want to pre ortize your life, get your right attitude in place, they wake up every day with the deck stacked against them. they don't complain and they do it with a smile. really, they teach us far more than we could ever, ever teach them. >> hats off to you, to susan, to the producers for the great job. wow, 4 million athletes. >> yes. >> absolutely no idea. it's getting bigger each year. >> it shows how one person, mrs. shriver, she had an idea, and a vision, and one person could change the outcome of life for millions. >> i've been to their house, they're an extraordinary family. i would add this. they start off on fox and friends, the law enforcement plays a major role. they're huge. >> yes, they're there with the kids. >> they're fantastic. >> thousands of volunteers.

thank you to 21st century fox, the olympics, and t.j. the president and susan for putting that together. another sports segment. brian and bob are going to duke it out on football. brian's not happy. stick around. bulldog: ah, the dog days of summer!

time to celebrate with your mates, grill a few dogs-- eh, hot dogs. bacon burgers... dachshund: "mattress discounters 4th of july sale"? bulldog: that cloud reminds me of... radio announcer: the tempur-pedic cloud collection. bulldog: that's it! radio announcer: now with 48 months interest-free financing-- basset hound: free financing? radio announcer: or get a queen size serta pillow top on sale for just $597. bulldog: that's a ringer of a deal! radio announcer: the 4th of july sale is on now. dog: come on, let's go! bulldog: hey! where's everyone going? ♪ mattress discounters

you probably know by now, i don't like soccer. it's boring. i don't like to watch grass grow either. but my buddy, brian, told me, here he is obsessed. and he's a little thin-skinned if anybody criticizes him. listen to this. >> on 33rd street of manhattan,

take that, bob beckel, and the soccer haters. this place was packed with ten deep in the streets watching through the windows in the big screens in the bars because they couldn't get there. >> if your knowledge of soccer is that low, you have no business criticizing it. because you don't understand the game enough to criticize it. which kind of surprised me, when "the five" took aim at me, because i am the premier soccer minded fox news which is not saying much. >> just a few questions. first of all, at that bar, did any of them speak english? >> all americans. >> are you sure? >> do you know there are more americans watching soccer in brazil than from anywhere else. and where i was, they were five deep -- >> i'll tell you, brian, there's great things about soccer that i think we ought to -- >> you ought to play. >> you can take more bathroom breaks than any other sport.
