about what the move would be. a british aide worker david haines. he was killed in syria. and jennifer joins us with a look at the meeting. >> reporter: in the meeting in paris, u.s. officials will not coordinate military with iran. u.s. officials are the not ruling out working with iran and they will reach out again this week despite being rebuffed. and french war planes are helping to provide recognizance and secretary of state john kerry corrected the record. >> in terms of al-qaeda, we used the word quat war" and we were at war with al-qaeda and affiliated and if you want to use it we are at war with isil

in that sense. >> isis showed the same executioner beheading david hains. >> david was murdered by an organization which is the embodyiment of evil. we'll hunt down these responsible and bring them to justice. >> iraq foreign minister in paris today said he believes the military operation to take the city of mosul will not take long. the iraqi military is having difficulty securing the mosul dam which the u.s. helped iraqi take back with the dam. >> thank you so much in

washington. more on this throughout the hour. >> public support for air strikes on isis has jumped. the majority of the americans support the air campaign 62 percent but most of them think it is not going to be enough to get the job done. joining us now is john mccormick and edo'keefe for the washington post. >> congress is back in session. what are they thinking on capitol hill? >> reporter: we don't know for certain butc.m%ñ a leading theo they will come back and start putting together a plan that passed. and part of that bill add more an amendment to provide the pentagon and white house to start training.

and fight injuháv)ia and iraq. and they are debating about the authorization of force. and that wouldn't come until after election day. and they will be a mi(xobust dee about something that takes several years to accomplish. >> and the white house was hopeful when the president spoke to the nation wednesday night, he would put to rest all of the fears that he didn't have a strategy. 70 percent of the americans think that the air strikes will not attack out isis, it leaves you wondering. >> and many administration officials acknowledged that air strikes alone will not destroy isis. you need a ground force on the ground destroying them.

and the administration hasn't gotten support from arab states. and just a few weeks ago, the president said it was a fantasy that they defeat isis and now they are taking. >> and it is a drone war in somalia and yemen. we are dealing with a smaller number of people and isis is a ground army of 30,000 people. you need some on the ground. the kurds are a strong force and armed sufficiently they could help push them back. >> there is a lot of concern, ed, about the quality of the coalition that is assembled. the arab states talk the game but don't put skin in the same

game? >> reporter: there are reports that suggest qatar and united arab emirates given they have participated in the military in the region. the groups that are not entirely vetted or understood. joe manchin said no one showed me who is our friends and who isn't. it is inevitable they take the weapons and training and use it in that region of the world in the last 25 years and all of that is still yet to be answered. and david haines the most recent to be executed, a cab driver who felt that the people of syria needed help and went to help them. and that's the thank you he

37 fries he has had. she was welcomed by harkin and bernie sanders with questions about her criteria and qualifications as a liberal democrat. they are arguing that the democratic party proved to the center. >> she did everything to dodge the questions. >> it is true, i am thinking about it. but,but for today, that is not why i am here. we democrats are for raising the minimum wage and equal pay for equal work and making college and technical training affordable and growing the economy and benefit everyone and >> reporter: she pointed out

the difference in the right and left in the midterms and trying to keep everybody interested in the 2016 aspirations. and on the first return to iowa where she came in third against barak obama and john edward, she had two democrats raising questions if she is too center right and little bit hawkish? >> thank you so much. talk to you soon. above and beyond the call of duty. we are waiting on a medal of honor ceremony in the white house. president obama will decorate two very brave soldiers. keep it here for the special event. plus wildfires threatening houses in california. and a videotaped confession of a man who admitted killing a boy, in new york.

[ woman ] got me to 70 years old. i'm going have to rethink this thing. it's hard to imagin how much we'll need for a retirement that could last 3years or mor so maybe we need to approach things dferently, if we want to be ready for a longer retirement. ♪

>> more now on the top story, the beheading of a british aide worker by isis. he was threatened after the execution of american journalist and now threatening to kill allen hennings. and prime minister david cameron rushing back to 10 downing street when the news broke calling the terrorist group monsters. >> we can't walk on by if we are to keep this country safe and we have to confront this menace. we must drive back and dismantle and destroy isil and what it stands for. we'll do so with a calm deliberate way. >> and mike joins me now.

what does it mean for british involvement? >> i think britain was likely to be involved even before this. >> they were planning on doing air strikes. >> it will increase public support for whatever prime minister cameron will do. 'ta÷ he will not be influenced by this in british decision- making. but he will have political and public support for what he decides to do. >> last year he went to parlamount and asked for strikes after assad used chemical weapons on his people. and he was rebuffed on that. you think there is support in parlamount now. >> i think he was. but they had not made the case publicly. it was a sudden and a 180 from where they were before. i think there is a build up and

broader support and people see the threat clearly. i expect there will be support for countries like britain and others to do things. to conduct strikes in syria, will be more controstrersial. >> that's where the head of the ser pent. >> i think there will be reluctance to do anything in syria president obama talked about possible air strikes against isil in syria and talked about arming the opposition but said that rests with congress. >> who will go and take out these guys? >> i think it will largely be the united states. we'll have support from allies in and out of the region, that support will be modest and face skeptism about what is the broader strategy? >> they don't know. they have not artechulated the

strategy. that is a fumbling. this exchange, well, listen to it right here. >> these sunni nations. why haven't they come forward? >> i don't think there is anything holding them back. >> you will not give us their names. >> what we are seeing is constructive engagement from the regional governments that have a stake in the outcome. >> that was ed henrow. what was with the secrecy? >> things are coalescing and what they are getting is statements of support in principle but not details. they are clear on what they won't do than what6tqñ they wil. and we don't have a clear strategy for syria and if you want people to support you.

you have to know what you are asking them to do. >> we are waiting for them to do something. what comes first, the chicken or the egg? >> we are inventory what they are willing to do. >> you have to ask them to do things and put the onous on them to say yes or no. >> our pentagon correspondent is not ruling out working with iran. >> i saw the remarks she is referring to. look, we'll not coordinate with iran. and we recognize iran is part of the problem in syria and they are not ruling out and sitting and talking with the iranians about the issue. >> talking to the iranians means challenging what they are doing in syria and searing if there is

not a way to agree with what the outcome is in iraq. i think we need to be skeptical anything will come to it. especially since the iran supreme leader said he is not interested in doing this. >> cancer doctor accused of trying to kill her lover by poisoning her coffee. >> and a virus targeting children and spreading fast. what you need to know to keep your kids safe. ugh. heartburn.

disappeared while walking to school 35 years ago. after years of dead-ends in the case police arrested pedro hernandez in 2012, just two years ago, and charged with killing little etan and admitted to it. and now the judge has to look at it and decide if it is admissible as evidence in the murder trial? heather hanson is a trial attorney and johnson spillbor is a defense attorney. even people outside of new york. his disappearance, walking to school first time disappeared and was not seen again. 35 years later, this guy confessed to the crime. why would that confession not be admissible. >> i can't look at the face of

the child without getting heart broken. i have a strong suspicion it will not be admitted for a couple of reasons. he has a sift icue and out of the blew 34 years later and there is a big hurdle in allowing the tape to be admitted legally speaking. he was an 18 year old clerk in the neighborhood where etan disappeared and he said he strangled the little boy, and put his body in a garbage bag and threw it away. and why if you have a suspect making a confession, in his own words. why would that get thrown out? >> i don't believe it will. a capacity to confession is not

strict as standing trial or committing the crime. it is the totality of the circumstances. the tape shoes the story. it is videotaped and we wouldn't know what happened. and here the confession is videotaped and it is appropriate mirrand ria otherwised. >> the wafer is what the judge will look at in this hearing and did he properly waive his rights. >> the circumstances of this, will go in to whether or not exceptions apply. >> one report that i read, said that he talked seven hours before the authorities read him his miranda rights. did the supreme court put a time limit. can you hour or ten minutes. >> they haven't specifically addressed that. there are specific exceptions

have been. >> and one is whether or not he volunteered the information. >> if he were free to leave. if you are in police custody for seven hours are you going to feel free to leave? >> after seven hours you will feel hungry. >> the prosecution is saying in this case, the miranda warning off of the top was not necessary. that comes down to the number of exceptions and was it voluntary and was there a public safety situation? >> and there are other children he could have been a threat to. we saw it in the boston bomber case. >> and we'll talk about another case looking at. and a case out of houston and the trial underway for a doctor accused of poisoning her lover's

coffee. she used the main ingredient in antifreeze and dumped it in his coffee and he lost his kidneys. complete rennal failure. they have tapes of her making incriminating statements but where they get the tapes? >> why did she do this? for the record, the tapes didn't say i tried to poison my lover. it said i do things the colombia way. and certainly strange but not an admission. the judge ruled those tapes are not coming in. >> the prosecutor has a tight case from what they said thus far. the only way they come in is if she takes the stand. they could be used to impeach her. >> a lot of people who have

access to antifreeze. >> and i don't think they have the actual coffee he consumed and in her house. she had access to him but we don't know where it came from and she will not testify, john. >> they had a relationship. >> they didn't wake up and they were in a relationship. >> the motive is important. >> you two, sound like you are on opposite sides of the case. heather? >> and wildfires carving a path of destruction on the coast. we'll have the latest on the battle to protect hundreds of homes in that area. t- rex may be knocked off its perch of the king of the dinosaurs. wait until you hear what they discovered. make bad grocery store clerks?

have their hands more than full and battling multiple wire wire and fuelling the flaps there and threatening thousands of hopes and william is live for us from l.a. >> john, it is the season and conditions that are awful right now. we have record high temperatures up and down california. and extremely dry conditions after a three year drought. and steep terrain and tough conditions for firefighters in

northern california. there are nine burning in the u.s. and the worst wildfires burning and 20 percent contained and the bass lake fire burned more than 300 acre. and took out a neighborhood. the firefighters used the lake to full up the tankers and helicopters. >> of course, as we know in the valley we have hundred degrees temperatures that we are experiencing and they are aiding in the spread of this fire along with the winds we are getting. >> and then a king fire in eldora county. and that destroyed two homes. and all of these fires are

burning east of sacramento in the sierra mountains with the smoke blanketing tahoe. and the one in oregon was started in a target shooting and practice session and three set by homeless. ac acreage wise we are in good shape. >> staying in california, one of the worst droughts in the state's history is threatening the almond crops. prices of almonds are at a nine year high and could go higher. california farmers grow 80 percent of the almond crop. some are affecting the state's reservoirs. and new there are fierce that

the whole country could be at risk. hi, there. doctor how do if-/w you have th >> you have symptoms that are serious. sneezing and cough and runny nose. with this you might get body aches and malaise. you might start breeze will. if you bring your child are they testing for it. >> all of us get health alerts from the department of health

one person could have exposed hundreds of thousands of folks in the airport. >> i heard that none percent of vaccinated. >> all you need is a few to get a disease that is transitionable. >> and the numbers are stunning. past ten years or so there are an average of 61 cases annually and this year tis like 562 cases. why are we seeing a huge uptake in this. >> it is due to the numbers of folks that are unvaccinated. next thing you know you have a jump up in the numbers. >> do we lose that immunity? >> you have lifelong immunity to the vaccines.

but as you get older and imme compromised. it can affect your ability to fight infection. fist pump and cover your coffee. >> and a new discovery out of morocco can change the way you think of dinosaurs. spinosa urus was the first semiaquatic dinosaur that could swim and hunt in the water. and joining me now palinatologist that is a national geographic emerging exploser. we didn't have complete skeletons for a long time, is that correct. >> we are talking about the most mysterious dinosaur out there and it was destroyed in world

war ii. and we have to wait 100 years for the next skeleton. and we get the replacement if you will, where was it found and what did it tell you. >> it is the most bizarre dinosaur out there and digger than t- rex by nine feet and ? adaptations for life and spent largely in water and so it is a river monster. >> that was a real mystery and the front claws or paws if you will. and no one at first being figure out how they worked or what they were designed for? >> that's. we have a strange claw and paddle- like structure ares and this is an animal that was at home in the]hy water. and obviously hunting in water and hunting the huge fish and other mammals of that area?

>> that is an amazing eco system and the most dangerous in the history of our planet. we have several giant predatory fish. and 7 or 8 different kinds> and that would not be a fun time in which to live. >> and so the skeleton, where will it be on display? >> we mounted a lifetime in dc. and also the cover story of the magazine. and so an exciting time for a tyrantesa urus. >> has anyone figured out what that did? >> that is a good question. that is a huge structure and seven feet tall and think it was

attorney general eric holder saying the plans will involve religious and community leaders and various law enforcement offices. the goal being to share information and improve training. there has been growing concern in recent weeks about americans traveling to syria to fight with isis. the administration is planning to hold a summit on that proble next month. right now, we are weight the start of a very special ceremony at the white house. it is actually now just beginning. president obama is bestowing the medal of honor on two u.s. soldiers. the medals will be given to command sergeant major benny atkins and posthumously to specialist donald slope for their acts of bravery in the vietnam war. let's take a listen to this. >> cason low lands. you are the living never forget what they did, the friends they lost, the family which he left behind. and we take to heart the words

spoken after battle by a grieving president. and it is for us, the living, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought have so nobly advanced. god redemption, god of grace, we ask to you grant these, your holy name, amen. >> amen. >> please be seated. good afternoon and welcome to the white house. more than four decades ago, in early 1970, an american squad in vietnam set out on patrol, they marched down a trail, past a rice paddy. shots rang out and splintered the bamboo above their heads. the lead soldier tripped a wire, a bobby trap. a grenade rolled toward the feet

of a 20-year-old machine gunner. the pin was pulled and that grenade would explode at any moment. a few years earlier on the other side of the country, deep in the jungle, a small group of americans were crouched on top of a small hill. it was dark and they were exhausted, the enemy had been pursuing them for days and now, they were surrounded and the enemy was closing in on all sides. two discreet moments, but today, we honor two american soldiers for gallantry above and beyond the call of duty at each of those moments. specialist donald sloat, who stood above that grenade. and command sergeant major bennie adkins, who fought through a ferocious battle and found himself on that jungle

hill. nearly half a century after their acts of valor, a grateful nation bestows upon these men the highest mill decoration, the medal of honor. now, normally, this medal must be awarded within a few years of the action, but sometimes even the most extraordinary stories can get lost in the fog of war or the pass am of time. when new evidence comes to light, certain actions can be reconsidered for this honor and it is entirely right and proper that we have done so and that is why we are here today. so, before i go any further, i want to thank everyone present here today, whose research and testimonies and persistence over so many years finally resulted in these two men deserving the recognition they so richly deserve. i especially want to welcome members of the medal of honor

society, as well as two american families whose love and pride has never waivered. don sloat grew up in the heart of oklahoma in a town called coweta and he grew big, over 6'4", he loved football and played for a year at a junior college and then he decided to join the army. but when he went to enlist, he didn't pass his physical because of high blood pressure, so he tried again and again and again. in all, he took the physical maybe seven times, until he passed. because don sloat was determined to serve his country. in vietnam, don became known as one of the most liked and reliable guys in his company. twice in his first months, his patrol was ambushed. both times, don responded with punishing fire from his machine

gun, leaving himself completely vulnerable to the enemy. and both times, he was recognized for his bravery. or as don put it in a letter home, i guess they think i'm really gung ho or something. [ laughter ] and then onee:÷ morning, don a his squad set out on patrol, past that rice paddy, down that trail, when those shots wrapping out. when the lead soldier's foot tripped that wire and set off the bobby trap, the grenade rolled right to don's feet. and at that moment, he could have run. at that moment, he could have ducked for cover. but don did something truly extraordinary. he reached down and he picked that grenade up and he turned to throw it, but there were americans in front of
