ovary disease. talk to your doctor. that does it for us today on "sunday house call." president obama has touted yemen as a success story but now it is a country in turmoil. protesters demanding that shiite rebels who seized much of the capital get out. as an al qaeda splinter group claims responsibility for firing a rocket near the u.s. embassy. we'll have a live report. almost a week after a u.s.-led coalition started pounding isis targets in syria, are we seeing any signs the military strategy is paying off? fox's military analyst major general bob scales joins us as the debate over sending in ground troops rages in washington today. >> the president was exactly right. what we're doing is totally different than the last decade. we're not sending hundreds of
10:01 am
thousands of american troops back into iraq or afghanistan or anywhere else. we're not going to be spending trillions of dollars. >> i think it is going to take more hand air strikes to drive them out of there. at some point somebody's boots have to be on the ground. an american pastor imprisoned in iran coming up on two years in prison because of his faith. isis and other extremists are threatening him. we'll talk to his wife who stood before the white house this week to plead for help. is the administration listening. i'm shannon bream. we begin with a fox news alert on a key u.s. ally in the war on terror in the middle east. now in yemen hundreds of protesters are demanding shiite reb militia leave. the capital city has been in chaos since the rebel group seized much of the city last week. chief washington correspondent james rosen is following the story for us. >> shannon, good afternoon.
10:02 am
yemen is hailed by the obama administration as a model of counterterrorism success. yet the capital sanaa has been gripped by violence in recent days as security forces for the central government there have collapsed under assault fromiit iran that last week captured the parliament, and military hardware. also contributing to the unrest is al qaeda in the arabian peninsula, an enemy of that movement. it was an offshoot of aqap embattled yemeni president has signed a u.n. brokered truce and power sharing accord with the mall that movement. state department which was forced to evacuate most personnel from the embassy in sanaa this past week
10:03 am
reasserts -- the u.s. remains firmly committed to president hadi. the u.s. also denounces the elements seeking to exploit the current situation to inflame matters particularly members of the former regime and houthi leadership. calling on them to "return the medium an heavy weapons" that the group has captured to the hands of the central government. u.s.-led coalition warplanes appear to have taken out an isis-controlled oil refinery in syria. residents of a nearby turkish border town say the air strikes hit early this morning. part of the coalition strategy has been to target those oil installations controlled by the islamic state in an effort to cut off the revenues that make this terror group one of the wealthiest ever. so it our bombing strategy
10:04 am
working? fox news military analyst, major general bob scales joins us today. >> hi, shannon. >> we've had a few days of the air strikes moving now into syria. what's your take? >> first, the good news is the administration has done a remarkable job of putting this coalition together in six weeks? >> quickly. >> he's got sunni arab states involved. there's an old saying that you don't have an american coalition unless you have britain on-board. brits on-board, belgium, holland, denmark, australia. the president has actually added what in effect is an aircraft carrier's worth of fighter planes over the last three or four weeks. that's impressive. the problem is that the campaign is going so slowly. we're down to three to nine air strikes a month, only at night, which gives isis the ability to go to ground, to hide among the people, to move during daylight, to readjust their forces. harder to find. that makes the bombing increasingly less effective. so it seems to most of us
10:05 am
military analysts that this slow pace gives isis two things. gives them the psychological high ground. they're still the most respected entity in the middle east. secondly, it gives them the gift of time that they have time to do what they need to do while we try desperately to build up this surrogate ground force which may take what? a year? a year-and-a-half? who knows. >> and you heard today the administration making the rounds on the sunday shows saying no way, we're not sending in hundreds of thousands of troops, this isn't going to be like the fights of the past in the middle east. but we also have speaker of the house john boehner among those saying somebody's boots have to be on the ground. is it going to be our boots on the ground. how do we carry out these air strikes without intelligence on the ground? how do we go after the enemy when it is hidden among civilian population? >> there's an old tenet in warfare that you don't achieve the size of effects without either occupying territory or threatening the use of ground forces to occupy territory. if the enemy knows that you
10:06 am
don't have that dimension, if the enemy knows that he can continue to control this terrorist state for as long as he wants without being threatened by a ground presence, then he's going to succeed. now we do have boots on the ground, don't we. we have advisors with the kurds and with the iraqis. we hopefully will have air controllers on the ground in the next few weeks. so to say there's no boots on the ground is a little misleading because we do. the question is how many more do we need and most people will tell you, if we do it, it's going to be somewhere between 5,000 and 10,000. >> i want to play a little bit of sound from an upcoming that the interview has on "60 minutes" talking about that region and instability there. >> this is one of the challenges that we're going to have generally is where you've got states that are failing or in the midst of civil war, these kinds of organizations thrive. >> we got a lot of that going on right to you.
10:07 am
how worried about what we hearing out of yemen. >> you're seeing isis influence beginning in algeria and going through all the states that we've just talked about, to include yemen. now in recent weeks spreading all the way to afghanistan. i mean this is this huge octopus, this huge hydrant that's grasping influence in all of these territories and it will continue to grow until someone has the ability to step up and confront them in close combat face to face. so far, best i can tell, there's nobody with the possible exception of the kurds who are able to do that right now. >> they certainly need our help in doing that. >> oh, big time. >> general, thank you for your service and thank you for joining us today. we appreciate it. >> thank you very much, shannon. the man who police say beheaded one co-worker and stabbed another in oklahoma is conscious and facing first degree murder charges. meanwhile, the fbi and local police continue to search for
10:08 am
the motive. there's some disagreement about that behind this gruesome crime. >> the fbi is investigating the potential ties to radical islam after co-workers say nolan, a convert of islam, was recently trying to convert them to the religion. nolan's facebook page shows photos of terrorists, references to jihad and sharia law. nolan posted a photo of a beheading in march and in another post he calls america and israel "wicked." now even though nolan's motive is unclear, law enforcement insist thursday's attack is not connected to terrorism. but is a case of workplace violence. earlier on fox news sunday, chris wallace asked president obama's deputy national security advisor about the classification. >> was that an act of terror? >> chris, we don't know. the fbi has an active investigation. i'm not going to get ahead of it. let's see what they found. >> as we all know with nadal
10:09 am
hassan when he shot up and killed a number of american soldiers, the administration labeled it workplace violence. are you willing to call this an act of terror if in fact that's what it is? >> of course, if that's what it is, absolutely. but i don't want to get ahead of the facts. let's let the fbi investigate. >> the oklahoma county d.a. is telling locale media nolan should have been in prison all along. nolan served less than two years of a six-year prison sentence for three separate offenses -- possession of marijuana, possession of cocaine, and assaulting a police officer. he was released in march 2013 thanks to plea agreements and good conduct. last night geraldo rivera spoke to the oklahoma highway patrol trooper who was injured while attempting to arrest him back in 2010. >> as soon as i realized what was going on and they said that he had possibly beheaded somebody, i mean i got good bumps all over my body. all i could do was just thank god that he didn't kill me when he had the chance to do so.
10:10 am
then of course, later as i began to think about it, then i was just overcome with guilt that i didn't take the opportunity to kill him when i had the opportunity to do so. >> well, nolan is expected to be charged with first degree murder and may face federal charges on monday. >> thank you for updating us on that. . the new "l.a. times" report says the department of justice is planning to ban the use of religious profiling by federal law enforcement officers. we want to know what you think about this potential new policy. do you think the doj should encourage federal law enforcement officers to stop using religion in any type of profiling? tweet us. we'll hear from you a little bit later on in the show when we debate that. there is an ongoing debate in the law enforcement community for now about alton nolan's motive. if radical islamic terrorism indeed drove his actions, is he a lone wolf, or could he be
10:11 am
attached to any international organizations. a former cia operative mike baker joins me. thank you so much. before we delve a little bit more into these different groups and who they are, talk about this guy how worried are you about a lone wolf threat? they're saying workplace violence. but if that's his facebook page and the interviews we've heard from the co-workers, you have to ask some questions. >> right. i mean law enforcement's going to do what they do is a very measured investigation into this. they're not jumping to any conclusions. about and quite frankly, it is speculation. i don't know to what degree his conversion to islam created some sympathies for islamic state and the atrocities that he had seen and whether that drove him to do what he did. but, i do know that it doesn't really matter from our enemy's point of view. from the islam iic state's poin
10:12 am
of view, from the jihadist, it's a victory. whether or not that was his primary driver in doing this, the islamic state and al qaeda and others will glom on to it and show it as a success as they continue their efforts to recruit others out in the west. >> talk about some of these groups out there. this week as we launched air strikes, the coalition did on syria, it was the first time for a lot of folks out there in the general public and many of them probably still haven't heard of this yet, this khorasan group. it comes as a surprise to a lot of folks because it appears to have connections to al qaeda. there's been a narrative that the core of al qaeda, the strength of it, has been disbanded. tell us about that group, what you think about how al qaeda is doing overall. >> i think a surprise over this khorasan cell operating in syria came from the speed with which it surfaced in the public. james clapper came out the week
10:13 am
before we started initiating syrian air strikes and said this is a major threat, i'm very concerned about this. people were rightly surprised because for the past couple of years the narrative has been we're decimating al qaeda, al qaeda's going to the side there, they're not as important as they used to be, they're not the players they used to be. and it is the islamic state. suddenly the khorasan cell comes out and we're all worried about al qaeda again. well, of course we are, because they haven't gone anywhere. it is not as if it is a new organization. it is an element of al qaeda that has always existed. a lot of the same players that have been out there. >> so is it fair to say that some of those core groups, they've broken up into these other factions because it seems like every day we get a new intelligence bulletin about a new group with a slightly different name but fill very murderous intentions. >> part of the problem has been our inability to kind of look from a 30,000-foot level at what it is we are engaged in.
10:14 am
we are engaged in a war against muslim extremists. islamic extremists. jihadists. whatever we want to call it. whether those are elements of al qaeda, aqap or in the islam iic state, khorasan, islam, it doesn't matter. as john kerry said not too long ago, he said we're in this tortured debate over terminology. well, our enemy is not. our enemy is very clear about who they're fighting. they're fighting the west, fighting infidels, unbelievers. from their perspective we either convert or we deserve to die. it's us. we're the ones that seem to be confused, in part because we can't get the narrative straight over who it is that we're fighting. >> so much of the terminology and semantics so important in this discussion if we're going to be real about what we are facing. mike baker, thank you very much for joining us today. authorities in the troubled town of ferguson, missouri, are searching for one, possibly two suspects in the shooting of a
10:15 am
police officer. officials say the officer was patrolling near a closed community center when a man began to run from him. the officer gave chase and was eventually shot in the arm. police chief says the attack does not appear to be connected to peaceful protests going on elsewhere in the city. those protests are over the police shooting death of michael brown last month. nfl commission roger goodell took a tour of the headquarters of the national domestic hotline last night in texas. hotline officials said goodell was moved to tears after hearing stories from victims advocates. visit comes as the controversial commissioner is taking heat for how he's handled several abuse cases involving nfl players. still ahead, after losing to hobby lobby, the obama administration continues its legal battle against an order of nuns over the obamacare contraceptive mandate. where does the white house go now? a pattern of giving religious groups the cold shoulder. we'll tell you what new polling shows us about that. we'll talk to the president of the family research council,

comcast business. built for business. more scattered thunderstorms in arizona at this hour after a record breaking wave of showers brought heavy rains and flooding to phoenix and other cities. snapping trees and at one point forcing closings of major highways and the airport. thousands of residents report they still have no power. th 1.6 inches of rain saturday broke the record set back in 1903. texas center ted cruz once again topped the straw poll at the values voters summit here in washington, followed by dr. ben carson and former governor mike huckabee. where do those voters and values fit within the 2014 gop?
10:21 am
joining me now, tony perkins, the president of family research council, sponsor of the summit. thanks for coming if. so i watched senator cruz's speech. i pleebelieve it was more like friday. it was more like pastor cruz. there were a lot of biblical references. he clearly knew the audience he was struck to. but it will only appeal to a certain kind of voter. is there a way for are that candidate to appeal to the rest of the general public? >> even in the post-election analysis, mitt romney's campaign stepped over the base to try to reach the middle and the base stayed home. republicans have to have a candidate that connects with the conservative portion of the party which is about 25% of the general election voter. >> how do you respond to the establishment type of folks who say you've got to let go of the social values, those aren't winners for us, and we don't
10:22 am
need a candidate who's going to talk about those kinds of things. >> i would say look at the historical record. how have you guys done the last two cycles? not too good. you have to have a well rounded conservative candidate. at the values voters summit this weekend the focus was on national security, it was on the economy, and of course it was on religious liberty and the whole issue surrounding conservative values. but clearly social conservatives want a candidate who is not afraid to talk about the moral, the cultural issues facing our country. not necessarily have to run solely on that but they have to be comfortable with it. >> some very interesting poll results from the pew research center talking about religion in public life and it said that 72% i think it was, nearly three-quarters of americans, agree that religion is losing influence in american life. how do you respond? >> in about half of those that said that believe that's a bad thing. they realize that we need more
10:23 am
informational religion in our culture. realizing in a nation that's politically divide, that's culturally confused that we need a moral compass. they see the church as providing that. >> also, i thought this was a very interesting poll, talking about how americans view the obama administration's attitude towards religion. friendly, neutral, unfriendly. it's shifted offense the last four years. friendly toward religion. that number has dropped. unfriendly towards religion, that number's almost doubled. >> look, that only makes sense when you look at the hhs mandate and all the latest with the supreme court where the obama administration said we don't care what your religious convictions are, we're going to force you to supply with providing a board of nations in your health care plan. in our nation's military religion has been at the crosshairs instead of an islamic enemy. christian religion, i should
10:24 am
say. yes, hostile to not just religion but to cyhristianity ad the evidence is overwhelming. >> you mentioned those who think religion is losing influence in american life don't necessarily think that's a good thing. we have another poll about whether churches should be expressing views on these issues. the number is way up over the last four years. showing that there are folks out there who do think churches should talk about this. should pastors talk about politics from the pulpit. >> i do think this is a direct response to the administration as the president talks about the freedom of worship. that he supports the freedom of worship. that's not what we're guaranteed in the constitution. we're guaranteed the freedom of religion which is the ability to live your life according to your faith. let abvery clear -- conservatives support the separation of church and state. we do not want the state telling the church what to do nor do we
10:25 am
believe the church as an entity should be telling the state what to do. but we do believe the church has an obligation, a responsibility and an opportunity to be the moral compass of our culture and that includes our government. i think people are now saying, hey, maybe the pendulum has swung too far, we do need a moral compass this our country and who better to provide that than the church. >> very interesting numbers. very interesting summit this weekend. thanks for stopping by on your way as you wrap up. thanks, tony. after the break -- chaos in the streets as thousands turn out for democracy. this time they want to send a message to beijing. plus a softball team in mourning after a tragic overnight bus crash shocking friends and family as they now try to say good-bye. plus, i sat down with the wife of an american pastor who's been held in an iranian prison now for two years. hear her heart breaking story and her plea for your help.

10:32 am
in a letter to his young daughter, rebecca, this week the pastor said, "i want you to know that the answer to all of your prayers is that god is in control and he knows better than us what he is doing in our lives and all around the world." i spoke with aseed's wife. >> well, it's actually harder as the years are going by. my kids are getting more emotional about missing daddy and daddy missing their birthdays. it's been hard. it's been a lot of travels and pressure and growing weary and tired and sometimes frustrated why he's not home yet. but it's been a really tough two years. >> you've been so strong through this. we know this week hundreds of prayer vigilles, including the
10:33 am
one you all had at the white house were held across the world. there's growing international pressure. will it help? >> it has. just last month the united nations human rights council finally issued a report on his situation. they said that bounder international treys iran has signed they violated that. he should not only be released but compensated. that kind of pressure that comes not just from the united states but some countries iran works with on a much more regular basis especially as they expand their negotiating and their international reach. it is very important. we've got work going on at the united nations but ultimately it is a u.s. citizen facing even the isis threat inside prison. it is going to be the u.s. government that has to get him home plp what more cot administration be doing? what have you asked them to do? >> we've asked them to be very direct with the iranians. before making any deal on the nuclear issue.
10:34 am
this week they were meeting with iranian officials. it is not secret any more. it is not back channel. it is public, happening face to face, that they've got to directly ask for his release and make that a precondition before signing any kind of nuclear agreement so we know, even though the u.s. government will never and knowledge it, that iran is going to keep him as a pawn in these negotiations as long as they can. the question is how long will the u.s. let them get away with that before they say, we're not going to talk anymore before we get this done. it is time for him to be home. it's been over two years now. if they do that, let them move forward with the negotiations but we've got them at the table. let's hot miss that opportunity. >> i know you stay in cusp with his parents who can physically see him some in prison. what do they tell you about how he's doing? >> he's been struggling. last week his parents got to see him. they usually get 20 minutes and he could only do ten minutes because of pain. his stomach area and he had to leave half-way in between. it's becoming mentally and
10:35 am
emotionally harder for him. he's able to see pictures of the kids growing up and that's been hard for him. missing rebecca's eighth birthday which is the third birthday without him. it's getting to him. of course he's in one of the worst prisons in the world. as jordan mentioned, he's under isis threat in prison. because he's christian, he's a convert, he's a pastor. he's american. all these things that those isis prisoners don't like. >> how are you going? how are you so strong and continuing this? because i know you have -- must have moments with the children that are very difficult but you are always there poised publicly making his case and just staying in the public eye as much as you can to advocate for him. what's it like for you? >> i have to be strong for them. i try not to be -- break down because i have to be their rock but i am emotional most days. i get up and my husband's not next to me. i'm on the road, i'm in hotels
10:36 am
or airports and that's rough not having my kids with me but i'm fighting for my husband and i'm a mess. but on noeftly, my faith, i've shared this before. like many people going through turmoils, i deal with the anxiety in the morning but god has always by his grace given me peace that i don't understand and the strength to do this. i could nef do this on my own. the travels and just the pain that my family's going through and it's my faith in jesus christ that gives me the strength to do this. >> we know that you together are a very potent team, making a lot of noise. hard to believe it's been two years. we'll continue covering this story. i get dozens of tweets and facebook posts from people who say they are praying for you and they want you to know. >> i appreciate that. >> please keep us updated. >> we will. thank you. the justice department is reportedly about to ban religious profiling by federal law enforcement agents.

japan's military is actively searching at this hour for survivors after a volcano popular with hikers suddenly erupted saturday around noon killing at least 31 people. at least 250 hikers were on the volcano at the time. heavy ash is blanketing towns and villages below. military helicopters have been rescuing stranded hikers but many still are missing. a newspaper reporting that
10:42 am
the justice department will soon ban religious and other forms of profiling by federal law enforcement agents. the l.a. times says the policy is still being finalized. attorney general eric holder was reportedly poised to announce the new rules a few months ago but the white house insisted on looking into the impact on national security first. let's have a fair and balanced debate about it. thanks for coming in. pros and cons because we're getting a ton of feedback about this on twitter. what do you see as the up side to making this decision? >> tony perkins who was a guest on your show a couple segments ago talked about freedom of religion. that's something i support. it is the foundation of this country. whether you are a christian, a jew, a muslim, you should be able to practice your religion without threat of intimidation. i think racial profiling, religious profiling gets at that. that's a real problem. the other thing -- newt gingrich said something a while back which i agree with -- we should be focusing on actionable behavior profiling. that will help in a lot of thee
10:43 am
instances. i know there's the case on friday with this murderer who cut off this poor lady's head. they're still investigating it. i imagine that religious profiling in that situation probably would not be as effective as looking at what he had had been doing in his past. >> my challenge is this. in national security will be exempt as you just stated. but if you recall before the 1993 bombing and before 9/11, there was a mosque in brooklyn where actually an al qaeda cell was there that planned the 1993 bombing and 9/11 where the blind sheikh was arrested for that. if national security's banned, i mean is banned from this process and religion organizations are banned, will that impact that? >> that's a question though i'm not sure that it would be. i know they are still work out this policy. now there are questions about this guy out in oklahoma. immediately they go to what they think is his facebook page with all kinds of very radical statements and beliefs and that
10:44 am
kind of thing if that turns out to accurately be his page. of course they go to his mosque, or where he had worshipped to say, is there anything we should know about. is it fair to go and look? >> i think certainly it is part of the investigation for the fbi and police and for law enforcement folks to track down anything they can off of the facebook feeds, wherever he practices religion. i don't think that's the same thing as picking a mosque and putting veins inting veins on reason. >> they said you cannot actually go and investigate a mosque unless it is proven that there's criminal activity. >> not proven -- >> unless there's proven activity. >> reasonable suspicion. let me bring up two examples of ethnic profiling. 1995 with the oklahoma city bombing. you had for the first 48 hours
10:45 am
of that case the suspect was profiled to be an arab. it ended up being two domestic terrorists, timothy mcveigh. in 2002 with the sniper shootings, the profile on those suspects were white men. they ended up being two african-americans. gets to my point where i think law enforcement officials -- there's really no evidence that profiling is effective. i think that they need to -- >> there's no evidence that profiling is effective. where do you see that it has not been effective? >> most studies will show you that. >> can you name one that actually says that profiling is not effective? listen. barbara olson, my mentor, was on the plane that hit the pentagon. racially profile me if that could have stopped that. >> that's not what america's about. >> we're too politically correct today. >> i think this is america. >> it is america. >> if you are a christian, fur he's a jew, if you're a muslim, you should be able to believe wlau want to believe without
10:46 am
