depend on congress saying we'll arm the &wrkurds. there is 100 men and women without adequate equipment. we'll have to go around the president on this$q3nd directly arm them. speakbl said it is not only the french helping out. 40 countries have offered assistance and secretary of state john kerry will lead the efforts of building a general assem blow next week. %qbq heather. >> the president's advisors say >> the president's advisors ma spotters that would be boots on correct? xó$i >> the request was made but the general turned it )qxwdown. even he is not certain that the iraq army and the syrian rebels

can do the job. notv;tq certain that presidenta would change his mind on not would change his mind on not ground. there are 1600 servicemen and kd training and embassy secretaurity. >> it is important for the american people to understand our strategy. and it is importantv) 6 for the iraqi peopled1-çx leaders to understand our strategy is and isn't. it> reporter: still the5ãbill approvedqy8a provides money to t

the democrats. and express that she thinks that maybe we trust the syrian rebels. who are we exactlyarming?

and senator rand paul on the a fefshant and long enough debate. they have them there on the left and right. some of on the right distrust the president to implement the war policy and many on the the left say it hasn't been debated thoroughly enough and we are resting on the 2001 war resolution to take action and that is not good enough. >> politics makes strange bed fellows. you have the liberal and conservative members of the senate voting against this thing? >> yes, the interest point, democrat leaders didn't want a prolonged debate on this and put vulnerable members in the middle over the debate and

specifics of what u.s. policy should be in syria and in iraq and how we deal with both of these countries and these threats. as harry reid said yesterday, we may come back and debate this, but even among the democrats, it is not certain there will be a prolonged debate and dick durbin, harry reid's number two said there needs to be. there is contention on how far to go with this and push the president on details. >> and rand paul was critical on the senate floor. the people and the body are not scared of isis but the american voter, critizing that the vote was taken quickly and not a lot of debate. the senate is adjourned and want to get out of town and wanting to campaign. the american public would wonder

why. this is the most important vote these guys can take and it was a narrow focused vote as far as the arming of the syrian rebels and the funding the big pot of money. but the question is, should there be a bigger debate of how many strikes were implemented and how long of a commitment we are going to have. the president said no boots on the ground. but will we see mission creep? and will democrats force the issue and make it a political problem for the president? >> in the meantime, there have been prominent military leaders like the retired general maddis, said taking boots off of the table is not good to say. general martin dempsey said he might come back and recommend boots on the the ground down the road. >> right, you are getting a mixed message there and the

military experts, what i have seen them saying is, if you are striking population centers, you are going to risk civilian casulties and the only way to limit civilian casulties is to put some amount of boots on the ground. i don't know if rand or kristin gillebrand would sign on that. and that's why they kept it more about funding and arming rebels, right. they are not our guys, we are providing the weaponry for people on the ground. the question is, can we trust them? >> yeah. >> is this strategy going to work? that is the right and left peeling off and the president losing two wings of the party. >> a lot of questions, but the president got his way. david, from u.s. news and world report. thank you, david. >> thank you, jon.

women's issues and that of her husband and obama's who signed the law. mrs. clinton who is considered the democratic front runner sounded a populs note and urged democrats to turn out in 2014. >> at a time when corporations have the rights of people but none of the responsibilities, we have a choice to make. a chance to elect leaders who know that women should be able to make our own health care decisions. (applause) and it is a chance to elect democrats. >> earlier vice-president biden, architect of the 20-year-old violence act women act warned america would slide back decades if the republicans regain the senate. >> the president is a wonderful guy and my personal friend.

but we feel like hora tio at the bridge or dutchmen at the dike. all we can do is stop bad things from happening. that is useful but not why we wanted the job. >> vice-president biden committed a minor gaffe he singled out one- time gop senator from oregon who resigned in 1995 amid sexual harrassment of women as one of the commendable republicans that mr. biden used to be able to work across the aisle. president obama speaking in two hours from now. >> james, rosen, thank you. >> police urging homeowners to lock their doors as a cop killer search narrows to a part of northeast pennsylvania. rick picks up the story, rick? >> reporter: jon, we are less than three miles from the state

style beheadings. here in the u.s. department of homeland security said there is no evidence that isis is planning home grown attacks here. so how concerned should we be. we'll talk to willie ferez. thank you for joining us. >> sure. >> apparently the plan in australia, was to take random citizens and drap them in the isis flag and behead them. what lessons should we take from what happen in australia? >> isis or jihaddist that are working with isis wanted to implement what isis would call strat edgic slaweder and was to be filmed and posted and get massive deterrent against the australia and why australia and other countries possibly? they are taking part of the a

liiance that is now pounding them iraq and syria and this is their air force pounding back. >> we are one of those countries, do we need to fear this and take this seriously at home. >> we are the chief country. without the united states and back bone of the campaign and the they are observing our vote. they will target us. do we have evidence and know that a cell is moving. we leave it to the aemgss they know more. do we know the intentions of isis and al-qaeda. of course we do, they stated it. >> secretary of defense hagel. number of americans pledging allegeance to isis is 100. but he back tracked. but two minnesota natives were killed in syria fighting for isis. chapez who said that four

individuals stopped in the border in texas who had ties to terrorist organizations and we had the recent natives of north carolinian an excop pledging his allegeiance to isis. there is evidence that there is growing support and underlying movement that is happening in here in america. why is the dod ignoring it? >> it depends on how we do the assessment. if we base it on the the specific cases, of course they are important you get that result. but the other assessment, who in the united states would be actually doing those things and then joining isis? that we don't know. we know many jihaddist in the united states. and we see them on the chat room and on line. that's my concern more than the returning fighters. >> are we targeted by al-qaeda

and isis. how many groups do we have to worry about now? >> the demgravy is that the majority of them are lone wolves and cells. and they have a men u who is better is al-qaeda delivering better outside in the middle east or isis. and we don't have a measurement of who is al-qaeda and who is isis unless we have direct information and that's what the government should know. and so no loyalty there. waly, thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. the commissioner of the nfl roger gadell set to speak on the league's domestic policy. since adrian petersen child abuse allegations ramped up the scandal. >> and gone in a flash, lines form outside of apple stores around the world as new iphones go on sale and those gadgets did

weather conditions in the short term are better. that helps the firefighters trying to get the fires contained and allows it to not spread as quickly. that is good news. any rain is not likely to get in the california area over the next 4 or 5 days. we'll see monsonnal moisture and brief shower and brings a threat for lightning strikes over the weekend. we'll see the drought in the entire state at this point. and it is a record- breaking drought. and we have fires going on. and precipitation in far northeastern parts. and temperatures are lower and that is great news. and we had records in california and you notice temperatures are better there. and take a look at this. where it had been across the mraps, temps are back in 80s and left over moisture from what we

have seen from hushing heart attack. spread rain in texas and texas is dealing also with drought and we'll see more rain in west texas. good news for them. but cause additional flooding as well. heather. >> it is the last official weekend of summer? >> oh, it feels like it happen. >> i am feeling cold. >> severe weather of a different kind leaving a mess in southern california. powerful winds flipping planes in a small airport in san diego. some landed on top of cars and total damages estimated at a million dollars. those aircraft were tied down and pilots said nothing they could do to keep them grounded. >> that is really close to an aircraft's rotating speed or start to take off when they go down the runway. if you have that amount of wind

going underneath the wings of the plane that will fly with it. >> i have been there. and the storm ruptured gas lines and uprooted trees in the areas and no injuries were reported. >> we are waiting on nfl commissioner roger gadell on the statement in a week. the highly critized commissioner is expected to address the issue. even with adrian petersen child abuse allegations and other scandals, some are asking if the coveraging may be getting a bit out of hand. fox news media is joining us now. we are going to talk about this weekend and how dow rate the media's coverage, touchdown or tackle them? >> the media puts points on the board.

the people are finding the coverage to be excessive, but they are missing the point. it is not a new's story. it is a cultural moment. these players are facing abuse. and the teams are benching them and sponsors pulling out and female anchors like meredith viera talking about their own brush with abuse. it is not only in pro sports, but a problem in the national football league and too often in the past was swept under the rug. >> it is not only professional athletes and celebrities. this happens to women and men all over the country and it doesn't get publicized as much. >> that's right. it doesn't make headlines and the players whether it is a rice or adrian petersen makes millions and they are getting so

much attention. >> what about balancing out with the good things that the players are doing in their communities, have you seen that? >> i haven't. i media frenzy and everybody is emphasizing the bad. most of the players in the nfl and sports leagues are not accused of domestic abuse and whipping a child. it is a question of standards and the nfl handle today horribly and i don't know how roger gadell can dig himself out of the hole. and so the other big story is the coverage of isis, how do you think that the media has handled that? >> in recent days there is an emergence of an antiwar. chris matthews in nbc is one of them. they are afraid of being sucked in a long- term war and

spectical that ground troops being used especially with the generals says it might be needed and some say the threat from isis is over stated. they are in the minority. i think looking at 2003 and the press's passativity, it is a healthy debate. we ought to debate what the united states is going into while going after the vicious terrorist. >> and something that we talked about within this hour is the threat here at home. a lot of media organizations from my perspective, seem to be ignoring that? >> right. it is not chlor how much they could be. but it took 19 men with box cutters to launch 9/11. and the fresh focus on the

terrorist of isis and the beheadings and the videos that we have shown changed public opinion and to the point president obama had to act and see how he carries out the military strikes and whether or not the generals are right. >> we'll be be watching. >> and more big news out of scotland. alex salmond announcing his resignation after losing the scottish independence board. he said for scotland, the campaign is not over and the dream will never die. greg is live from london with the details on the vote. >> reporter: hey, jon, if you felt a large gust of wind coming over the atlantic early this morning twas a sigh of relief coming from politicians here in

london. what was billed as the possibly end of the united kingdom and break up of america's most important ally is not going to happen. despite a record- breaking turn out, the no vote to scotland's move to independence winning over the yes, partisan. and some blame it on over confidence by uk prime minister david cameron and others. a good reason why there is none of the british reserve today when he commented on the the vote, take a listen. >> the people of scotland have spokeen and it is a clear result are. they have kept our countries of four nations together. and like millions of people i am delighted. it would have broken my heart to see our united kingdom come to an end. >> the leader of the independence movement stepped

down. but a lot of things he fut more. more decision making and decisions on taxes and now has to be put in place and that means other nations of the united kingdom. wales and northern ireland and england itself will want the same and aftershocks from the vote will continue. and keeping the uk together is important to washington and the united states. and no wonder that president obama congratulated the scots on the full and energetic exercise of democracy. he and other world leaders worried about their own separatist movements might be calming nerves with a tall tumbler on scotch whiskey. >> i am happy they stayed together. work it out, guys. >> coming up. fallout from the ebola outbreak

resistant bacteria. it is a health crisis that saves lives every year. and health experts are disappointed with the president's actions and saying it ignores the use of drugs in agriculture, a mange source of anti- antibiotic resistance in the united states. with more is the doctor from atlantic hill hospital. this reached the level of the white house and putting out plans to attack it. when the white house turns its attention to something, very often things get done? >> it is it a good start. if you look at the plan, they are putting, there is an incentive as far as the companies getting money to order new antibiotics which is a huge problem of what we have right now. we haven't had new antibiotics coming in and the bacterias are getting smarter and they are beating us. if you look at cultures, ten years ago, you would see a lot

of rs sensitive. and now the majority of them are r and that means they are resistance and these bugs are getting smarter. and his plan as for as giving 900 million to develop antibiotics is a great start. there is no talk about the agriculture who is spending 75 percent of the antibiotics in the farms and that is where the resistance comes from. >> i thought it was because doctors prescribe antibiotics with a cold. but the part of the problem is farmers and rangers are giving feed that has antibiotics to the hanmals and it helps the animals fight off infection and you eat the meat. >> and that is a huge part of the antibiotic resistance that is hidden and not too many people are aware of this. 70 percent of this. the numbers that you are talking about.

2 million americans are affected by the infection and resistance to antibiotics and 23,000 people may diechlt and a lot of it is mrsa. and the other is a bug. and these two super bugs carry a lot of problems and infection in the hospitals. and so if you can fix the source in agriculture and better food safety and not giving so many antibiotics to the cows and pigs and be careful about what we do in the hospitals, i think we can beat this. this is a start, but not a complete plan. >> what about regulating it in medical offices? i am sure doctor friends of yours, patients come in i have a cough and i need an antibiotic. they might not need it. >> a think prescriptions for z- packs is probably not necessary.

a lot of knee jerk reaction needs to be looked. we need to train our doctors not to write it so fast. so yes, a lot could be ant bo that we use in hospitals but agricultural issue is a huge problem for us. >> dr. david samadi, thank you. >> you got it, thank you. four years since the bp oil disaster and marine life in the gulf of mexico disagreement battling disease and deformities that researchers are linking to the spill. live in naples, florida. >> that deep water horizon explosion polluted the gulf of mexico with 200 million gallons of oil and scientists say marine life continues to suffer. you will want to see this unique study done at the university of miami with baby dolphin put to the test on fish treadmills. that's coming up.

gallons of oil in the gulf of mexico. phil keating is live. >> multiple scientific studies this year show that four years after bp's deep water horizon pumped 200 million gallons of oil in the gulf of mexico marine life is disagreement struggling. the most recent study and most unique done at the university of miami will researchers put these you've is nile whmahi-mahi into these treadmills. some were embryos in the oil. the oil-exposed mahi swam substantially slower. that means as adults they would not be able to catch prey or evade being eaten by predators nearly as well. >> the impacts, 37% reduction in swim performance which again is critical. it occurs at very, very low concentration. it's the effect that you would not see with the naked eye. >> bp faults this study telling

us, quote, such tests do not tell us how mahi-mahi in nature were effected beity spill or if they were even affected at all. further, the study provides no evidence that the oil affected the adult fish. they compared dolphins up the coastline with baritaira bay louisiana dolphin where's there was much bp oil finding the oil-exposed dolphins five times more likely to have moderate to severe lung disease. another study looked at tuna and amber jack finding the oil caused serious defects in the hearts. it puts 12 species four years later disagreement struggling. >> paul keating live from florida, thank you. as france joins the war on isis with aerial assault that reportedly killed dozens of militants how is the white house doing with the rest of the coalition building?
