6:00 pm
tely looking out for you. breaking tonight. all eyes on the middle east. where, quote earth shaking revenge is promised after isis releases a horrifying video, showing a jordanian burned alive as he is trapped in a cage, unable to save himself. the question now, how will the world fight back against radical islamic brutality straight out of the middle ages. welcome to "the kelly file," everyone. a short time ago president obama meeting with jordanian king abdullah ii. the executed man was a jordanian air force pilot captured by isis. we avoid the details of the atrocities committed by isis. they mean to terror iz. however, this single act of
6:01 pm
barbarrism shows you everything you need to know about this group and what it stands for. in a moment we will show you one frame from the most horrifying piece of the video and you can make up your own mind about how we degrade and destroy such a group. but first, what's on the tape. i would not presume to claim you could take you through it any more compellingly than shepherd smith did earlier today. >> he's in an orange jumpsuit now. he's walking this time. and he's walking across a barren landscape which appears to be dozens and dozens of soldiers on, i don't know, a set around him. soldiers in desert cam mo uniforms uniforms. there appears to be the ruins of buildings. then they cut to a cage. that's the first time you see with the bars in the foreground that he's standing upright with his hands down by his sides and he's looking directly at the ground. but it doesn't stay that way. he does look up. the orange jumpsuit appears to be partly covered by or doused with some sort of liquid.
6:02 pm
see it there on his right side on your screen left? it looks like there's dirt or something liquid on there. see that? the video intercuts with a soldier outside this cage now. and this soldier is in desert cammo wearing desert boots, a gun strapped around his neck and resting on his back, and his head covered again you only see his eyes much like the other soldiers and he looks like what looks like a long stick, one end wrapped with some sort of fabric. it's clearly a torch. there's no speaking now on the video. there's what sounds like a faint heart beat in the background. it gets louder and more rapid over the next couple of minutes. there's a dramatic chanting in the back ground. there are quick edits and special effects. and there are sound effects along the way. and it's building in drama. and then the screen goes to black. and not just for that long, but for a few seconds. and the next image is that of
6:03 pm
the same uniformed man i described earlier holding the torch, you hear the sound effect of a lighter and the torch is lit. then there's some special effects. and the torch is moved from high to low, from this area to reach down and touch a trail of something that is clearly flammable on the ground. it looks like a long trail of sand. and that line of sand stretches from that torch to the cage that contains the hostage, jordanian pilot. once that line of sand is lit, it burns like a fuse. it's a number of feet long. because of the edit i couldn't give you a description of how long. but eventually, with dramatic effect, that fuse burns to the edge of the cage. and as it reaches this metal cage, the sand at the bottom of
6:04 pm
the cage then appears to light across the cage on one side only in a line that moves from the edge of the cage toward the hostage inside the cage. and he stands there. and he's in his orange jumpsuit, and he's standing upright just like you saw and he's looking ahead. first the flames hit the hostage's pants and they catch fire. and then it moves up and ignites his shirt. the hostage, the pilot we know begins to jump around in the cage. he flails his hands about shoulder high. soon he covers his face with his hands. he's on fire, every bit of him. at this point there's canned music and chanting in the background and screaming which sounds like it's edited in not like it's part of the images on the screen. the pilot with his face covered with his hands begins to walk around the small cage. every part of him is on fire.
6:05 pm
the video is now edited in slow motion. eventually the pilot collapsed to his knees while leaning against one side of that cage leaning forward. finally he appears to grab the cage bars with his hands. then he collapses to the ground still against the cage bars into what i'd probably describe best as a fetal position. there's thick black smoke. the hostage is now all black in color. and hardly moving. and an announcer speaks in arabic. then after an edit, a large yellow-ish colored, sand-colored front-end loweredader arrives at the cage. it looks like there's discarded construction material, mostly concrete. and then the front end loader raises its load and dumps it on top of that cage, and presumably
6:06 pm
the remains of the man inside. and it crushes the cage and everything in it. >> we'll show you one frame of this man's murder. this human being's murder. it is disturbing and it is hard to erase from one's memory once consumed. if you do not wish to see it now's the time to look away and certainly to remove your children from the room. here is a man a 26-year-old man, a citizen of jordan, who was trying to stop the face of evil, and instead became a victim of it. this is moaz, caged, covered in flammable liquid, and burning alive. joining me now, mark is a former chief speechwriter to president george w. bush, a fellow at the american enterprise institute and a fox news contributor. and as we watch evil with our very eyes and come to fully
6:07 pm
understand the depravity that our enemy is capable of, it advances our strategy and our understanding of this battle how? >> just when you thought that isis had reached the depth of depravity that human beings are capable of, they sink even lower. these people have gone from beheading people and putting heads on posts to burying women and children alive to crucifying people, literally crucifying people, to now taking a man pouring gasoline on him in a cage and setting him on fire, and filming it for the world to see. this is the embodiment of evil. as anything we've seen in the history of man. >> you spoke of going to auschwitz not long ago. and being asked a question by your son. >> we just had the 70th anniversary of the liberation of auschwitz. i took my son to auschwitz last summer and i showed him the gas
6:08 pm
chambers and crematoriums. the hardest thing to explain to a 12-year-old boy watching this for the first time and coming in confrontation of what evil men are capable of is why didn't we stop it. why did the world sit back and allow the nazis to accumulate power, to spread their it yolg, to gain control and power, and kill millions of people. the answer i had to give him is the same thing we did nothing to stop the rice of isis. this is a different evil in the same form. again the world is sitting back letting these people rise into power, get control of territory and kill on a horrific scale. >> we talk about changing hearts and minds. and trying to get muslims to stand up against radical islam. and dissuade those who might be persuaded by the ideology. how on earth could anybody remotely attracted to this group and it's said to be gaining in popularity, ever be dissuaded by
6:09 pm
reason? >> they can't be dissuaded by reason. that's the point. these people have to be defeated. and what is so horrible about this, is that they were defeated. in 2009 this isis, which was then al qaeda in iraq was defeated. general jack keene was on your show last week and talked about how he had seen the intercepts from al qaeda central. stop sending brothers it's over. these people were out of power. they were down and defeated. and the american withdrawal from iraq caused this, created the vacuum that allowed these people to come back rise and take over this territory. we should not be withdrawing from the world. the only thing that can stop this from spreading, a movement that does this to a man would not hesitate to kill thousands of people here in the united states. and if we do not stop them, that is what they are going to do. >> mark, thank you. >> thanks, meghan. we are now reportedly just hours away from another execution. sources saying that jordan will now kill an al qaeda prisoner in
6:10 pm
its custody. hours ago we saw jordanians in the streets of their can tal demanding vengeance. but some are also denouncing the jordanian government and its involvement in the u.s.-led coalition against isis. you just heard mark mention him, general jack keene a retired four-star general, and a fox news military analyst. when you see the people of jordan so outraged today at the murder of their fellow citizen, what does it mean? >> i hope it means that we're finally going to start countering this narrative. we've needed this for some time. the people in the region clearly have to stand up against this barbarrism. they know what it is. they know it's a threat to civilization. they know it's a threat to their way of life. it takes courage to stand up against it. it remains to be seen if this is just one or two or three-day demonstration, or a catalyst for something larger. >> could this backfire in that
6:11 pm
can jordan withstand a fight against isis? and is that in our best interests? >> here's the problem we've got, meghan. we said, our policy is to degrade and destroy isis. isis headquarters is in iraq, syria, they've been advancing in syria since the campaign of bombing began that the president announced. they have taken more territory. our ground force in syria is a free syrian army. they are on their backs in terms of what's been happening with assad bombing them. and they were going to train a few thousand in one year. what that means is, the only way you can destroy isis, that means you have to kill the butchers who are committing this butchery, you have to have a ground force to do it. the facts are, we don't have a ground force in sight. where is that going to come from. it's got to be jordan. it's got to be turkey. it's got to be saudi arabia. and it's got to be the uae to do
6:12 pm
this. we have to help this. >> put this in perspective for us. you are the chairman of the institute of study of war, you study wars, you know what the history is. and many people look at this and say, how could we -- all we can do is bomb these people to oblivion. because there will be no negotiated settlement with the animals who burned this pilot alive, who execute and behead children, and on and on i could go. but put it in perspective. is that correct? >> yeah. the fact of the matter is, most of what we have to do is push back on it as you suggests. we have to have a ground force with air power to do this. but there's none on the horizon meghan. this is very disingenuous on the part of the administration. they're not telling the american people that destroying isis in syria, which is where their strength is, is years down the road, means the butchery continues. and you have to have obviously
6:13 pm
other countries involved in this. and we have to take their money away. and we have to push back on a narrative. and we have to underline the ideology. but the main event obviously is using military capability to kill and capture. otherwise the butchery will continue. >> and the cancer continues to metastasize. general keene, good to see you. >> good talking to you, meghan. going to the white house up next we'll speak with one of the metn who met the king and find out what he wants and whether the united states will give it to him. the republicans, after some made controversial comments about vaccinations, is this really a republican issue? we will fact check the reporting with brit hume ahead. taking hold at a major

6:17 pm
which will make us stronger and more united. >> that was jordan's king abdullah ii today addressing his nation. after news of the isis execution video broke. shortly after that president obama was asked about the video, too. >> i think we'll redouble the vigilance and determination on the part of a global coalition to make sure that they are degraded and ultimately defeated. and it also just indicates the degree to which whatever ideology they're operating off of it's bankrupt. >> tonight king abdullah joined president obama in the oval office. on a previously scheduled trip. matt thornberry is the chairman of the house armed services committee and he was one of the lawmakers who spoke with the king today. good of you to be here tonight. what is the king asking for from the united states? >> well, in the short term, he needs help.
6:18 pm
he intends to push back against isis, but he needs more fuel. he needs more bombs. he needs more equipment. he needs less bureaucratic red tape in washington that slows down getting these supplies to him. >> is he going to get it? >> well i hope so. we certainly offered in congress to do anything we could to help facilitate getting him what he needs. >> why wouldn't we provide it? they're part of the u.s. coalition against isis jordan is. why wouldn't we help? >> we should. but his frustration was, it takes too long, and it's too bureaucratic. some of the same frustrations those of us here at home feel as well. the other thing he needs is for us to help him assemble a coalition that will stand together and push back against this ideology. he stood strong, the president of egypt has stood strong but we -- this has to be a battle in part fought within the muslim religion. and so other national leaders,
6:19 pm
other clerics have got to join this to isolate this strand of the ideology that is so barbaric. >> what did you make of the president's remarks today? referring -- you heard him there talking about whatever ideology this is, as opposed to defining it, once again refusing apparently to define it as radical islamic ideology. >> yeah. that's disturbing to me on a couple of reasons. number one is that he does seem to have a problem defining what the ideology is. much less doing something about the ideology. the idea that it is bankrupt kind of dismisses it. when in fact these people are pretty smart. they're not trying to recruit us. they are using these horrible videos to recruit a narrow section of people to their cause. and they know exactly what they're doing. the other thing that i'm struck by with the president's remarks is, he says we're going to double down. well, if you double down on
6:20 pm
empty words, you still end up with nothing. >> we are leading the bombing campaign against them. >> well we have some bombing, but he refuses to allow ground controllers to be in the field, to make the bombing as effective as it needs to be. we don't have the intelligence collectors on the ground to be as effective as it needs to be. so he gives these words but as far as providing material support, gathering the coalition, doing the things that really make progress, we haven't really seen it. and so as general keene mentioned, isis has actually gained ground inside syria since we started bombing them there. >> chairman thornberry, thank you for being here. >> you're welcome. reports that jordan will execute its al qaeda prisoner at dawn there, which is 11:30 p.m. tonight. we'll stay on it. democrats and liberal media pounced on republicans after controversial comments on vaccinations, describing this as a republican issue.

breaking tonight, at least six people are dead, and a dozen injured after a commuter train slamgs into a car. both bursting into flames. this picture just in was taken moments ago. after the metro north crash in white plains which is about an hour north of new york city. the mta said the gates came down on top of the vehicle stuck on the train tracks and could not move. before the impact.
6:25 pm
the driver was among the victims as well as five passengers on the train. more than 750 passengers were estimated to be onboard. the train at the time. there is still a lot of ice and snow around but no word in whether the weather played any part in this crash. anger and tension running high at the university of california davis campus. what you just saw played out late last week is the student government association voted on a resolution to boycott the jewish state of israel. reports say when the israel supporters tried to object to this vote the pro-palestinian students you just saw tried to shout them down. the resolution passed and the anger toward the jewish students did not end there. host of the nationally
6:26 pm
syndicated show, vandals spray painted swastikas belonging to a jewish organization. there is a $2,500 reward leading to the arrest and conviction. >> college campuses have become caricatures of themselves, and folks at the university of california school system out there, university system, prides themselves meghan on being so tolerant, and so open to ideas. they're so open to ideas, that when someone says something in this case about israel, that they disagree with then of course, they are going to shut that person down, make sure that they are intimidated from speaking out. at least try to intimidate people from speaking out. this is just the state of things right now on college campuses. i think people watching this at home, they think, oh this has to be exaggerated. it really can't be that bad on
6:27 pm
my kid's college campus. i will say, it's sad to report that this kind of thing maybe not so dramatic, happens quite frequently on college campuses, where either conservative students, or religious students feel like they really have to be quiet. and they can't speak out lest they be brought up on some type of hate speech violation, or communicative standard. and they can't work in the real world. there you have it. >> the division over israel, you know, one of our closest all yigs, just seems to be popping up in more and more places these days. it takes me back to the democratic national convention. remember when they tried to put jerusalem back into their party platform? and villearaigosa had to pretend they didn't have it out on the floor. even debbie wasserman schultz was surprised by that.
6:28 pm
>> i think israel has become for the left the new south africa. remember, in the 1980s, it was the divestment movement from south africa. when i was at dartmouth college that was really big back then. israel is the less favorite, you know whipping post of fury and anger and outrage, because remember, if israel's an ally of the united states, israel must be bad. because the united states is bad. the united states needs to be brought to heel. it needs to become just like the rest of the world, no better, no worse. so i think it's just borne out, meghan, out of the very deeply anti-american sentiment that has been whipped up for decades on college campuses. and today is i think far worse than when i was in college in the mid-1980s. i think most kids who aren't far left just kind of keep their heads down and hope that they can graduate and find a job.
6:29 pm
>> it's incredible to hear allah akbar shouted -- >> what does that represent, meghan, in so many instances, not all, but so many instances across the world. the horrible case of course, of the burning alive tonight, the torture of homosexuals, the torture of christians, the crucifixion of christians. that's what it has come to represent and that's what they're shouting. what does that tell you. >> laura thanks for being here. >> great to see you. republicans are under attack about comments about children and vaccines. but this is really a republican issue? wait until you see what we found with brit hume next. plus breaking news on whitney houston's daughter. we have learned about what was going on just before she was found unconscious in her bathtub. stay tuned for that. at ally bank no branches equals great rates. it's a fact. kind of like shopping hungry equals overshopping.

developing tonight new fallout after a pair of potential 2016 candidates address a parents' right to choose whether or not to vaccinate their children before they can send them to public school. we first told you about this yesterday. new jersey governor chris christie and kentucky senator rand paul sparking a media frenzy, after suggesting that parents should have a choice in the matter. there's no question they should have a choice about whether to vaccinate their children all together. the issue here is whether it should be mandatory before these children can go to school. both men have since clarified voicing their support for vaccinations. but apparently it was too late for some. headlines suggesteding that this is a huge problem for republicans. from "the new york times," measles outbreak proves delicate issue to gop field. alarming medical experts.
6:34 pm
and from "time," measles vaccinations roil republican race. is this really a republican issue. brit hume is here for political analysis. we begin with trace gallagher who reports from the west coast news room. trace? >> meghan, during her presidential run in 2008 hillary clinton called for more research into a possible link between the vaccine and autism. the science is clear the earth is round, the sky is blue and vaccinations work. let's protect all our kids. the "new york times" said this, quote, the vaccination controversy is a twist on an old problem for the republican party. how to approach matters that have widely been settled among scientists, but are not widely accepted by conservatives. former co-host of "the view" pand avowed liberal joy behar jumped on the bandwagon. listen. >> this is again this neanderthal thinking on the right that really, it's scary. and dangerous.
6:35 pm
climate change deniers, vaccination deniers, they're going to kill us. >> the numbers show this so-called conservative problem is having a liberal outbreak. there are 102 measles cases nationwide. 92 of the cases are here in california. affecting very affluent and very democratic suburbs like marin county, just north of the golden gate bridge and santa monica. areas where at some schools the vaccination rate is as low as 40%. about the same as southern sudan. if parents don't want their kids vaccinated, they simply sign a personal belief exemption, or pde, opting their children out. turns out those pdes are popular in the day care center like the kabala children's academy which has a 50% opt-out rate, or in santa monica where 68% of
6:36 pm
parents said no to vaccines. the bottom line is it's very far from a one-party problem. >> trace good to see you. brit hume is our political analyst. brit is back with thoughts on vaccines. joy behar is sick and tired of the neanderthal behavior by conservatives. just stand by, brit. like this very well-known conservative man who's been one of the most outspoken on the issue of vaccines. watch this.z4a" >> the science if you actually read the science which most journalists don't do, the science is overwhelming, that there is a link between the autism and the thimerosal. >> no, actually it isn't. not at all. he doubled down just last summer with a book, pushing that same preposterous theory, which has been completely debunked by science.
6:37 pm
what do you think of that? >> well meghan, you're asking me? >> yeah, what do you think of that? >> certainly chris christie nor rand paul has written a book on the subject. and rfk jr.'s comments on this are obviously absurd. and i think that paul and christie both realized pretty quickly that what they had said while they didn't say they were anti-vaccine they were pro-vaccine, but thought parents should have a say in the matter. they're hastening today to say, everybody ought to get vaccinated. and obviously kids should. >> the issue here is whether -- it's being sort of stated, i think, in a misleading way by some. no one is saying that a parent should not have the choice about whether to vaccinate or not vaccinate his child upon birth, to walk around in the world. some people are saying you should.
6:38 pm
no matter what. but the issue about whether the vaccines are mandatory or not mandatory relates to school. so if these candidates come out and say that you should have the choice, and it shouldn't be mandatory, then they're effectively saying that non-vaccinated children should be allowed to to to school with vaccinated children, and that's aok with them. that is politically controversial, no? >> well, it is meghan. but when you consider that some of the diseases against which these vaccinations are given are highly contagious measles for example is one. these communicable diseases, there's a real public health question whether vaccinations should be mandatory in order to protect not just the child affected by the particular shot but all of the rest of the children should the kid come down with the disease. there are a serious public health reasons vaccinations should be mandatory. i don't think there's much question about that. and i don't think it's reasonable for "the new york times" to say that conservatives
6:39 pm
largely speaking don't buy that. i think there's no support for that proposition. there are people on the right, and as you have demonstrated very ably here, meghan, on the left as well who are skeptical of the whole idea and think autism might be caused by vaccinations and so forth. but the idea that that is a view widely held among conservatives is unsupported by any data i know of or anything that "the new york times" reported in that story, which was clearly an effort to tar, i think conservatives and republicans with this idea this sort of anti-science notion on vaccinations. >> but this hasn't been a right/left issue. like climate change, for example, which is divided along party lines, the vaccination issue really has not been historically at all. and you just listen to trace's report about the counties in which the vaccinations are the lowest. you know marin county and so on. these are not conservative
6:40 pm
bastions. in a lot of these cases these are jenny mccarthy acolites who believed her, and they believed her that once she vaccinated her child, he got autism and that it could happen to their children, too. fine. but now the science is really clear, don't these people need to come out and say, never mind? and i mean barack obama and hillary clinton, and these republicans, everybody to say, we were wrong? >> yeah certainly, i would be -- i would think so. there is a poll that says that you know 76% of democrats now think that -- now believe there's no link between vaccines and these diseases. and the number among republicans is said to be 65%. that's one poll, one time. i don't know what the margin of error is. but it suggests that an overwhelming majority in both parties believe this. and that politicians and others
6:41 pm
who were saying that this should -- you know, that this is a question that's really a question out there ought to stop talking about that. i think the two republicans who did that have already done so. and my guess, meghan is there's probably not much left of this controversy. >> sort of surprising it wound up on the front page. that's what happens when you have a measles outbreak like we have in this country. brit, good to see you. >> thanks, meghan. >> what does the science really say on the vaccines. we have an actual expert here who will tell you, and his name is not jenny mccarthy, next. plus breaking news about whitney houston's daughter fighting for her life in an atlanta hospital tonight. here at fidelity we give you the most free research reports, customizable charts, powerful screening tools and guaranteed 1-second trades. and at the center of it all is a surprisingly low price -- just $7.95. in fact, fidelity gives you lower trade commissions than schwab, td ameritrade

autism. joining me now, dr. robert mahida from rutgers university and chairman of medicine at israel center. is it absolutely certain that vaccines do not cause autism? >> absolutely certain. there have been numerous studies, i have ten studies in my folder, in the green room, that conclusively show and the institute of medicine in the government has proven that autism is definitely not linked. >> this got started back in 1998 by so much british dude who wrote a paper with a few other people who studied 12 children, is that true? now he's lost his medical license? >> that's right. >> he's proven to be a fraud, the article is a fraud. the other doctors took their names off of it. wakefield started this all. >> that's right. five of those children had learning problems before the study, and three of them never had autism at all. that's eight out of the 12. so you go and figure that data was definitely false.
6:47 pm
and there have been all sorts of allegations surrounding that. it's a distinguished british journal removed the study in 2010 retracted the whole paper. and the british medical journal supports that as well. so we in the united states have done, or completed studies on any possible links between autism and vaccines like measles. it's just not -- >> studies of hundreds of thousands of children. hundreds of thousands in the aggregate over a million. and no link. >> no link. >> i've been hard on jenny mccarthy. don't get me wrong i feel for her, as she is a mother of an autistic child. and i believe she believed what she was saying. >> yes. >> but now in the wake of the science, does she have an obligation to come forward? and even at the time, should people have been listening to a former playboy bunny on whether they should vaccinate their children, doctor? >> no that is almost saying
6:48 pm
irresponsible. but i, too, feel for jenny and her autistic child. autism is a very, very serious problem. and in new jersey, god knows, we have more autistic cases than anywhere in the country. so we should listen to the experts. parental husbanderous is one thing, but real science is another. as far as the politicians go this is a public health problem. this is not a bipartisan issue at all. if you believe that autism -- >> a partisan issue. >> that's right. not a partisan issue. it should be bipartisanly accepted that this is a very, very -- >> what about -- a lot of folks, i vaccinated all three of my children, i didn't wait i didn't separate them. people were tweeting me saying you know well, good for you. but i know a lot of anecdotal are cases where they got vaccinations and the kid has autism. this is what happens. you've git like wakefield who does this study a celebrity like jenny mccarthy who fuels
6:49 pm
these flames. autism reveals itself in its symptoms very often right around the time that the vaccinations are required. >> that's right. we see that in medicine all the time. people develop, say, a disease a digestive disease after a big meal. it may have nothing to do with the digestive problem but they attribute it to the meal. >> some say who cares if they don't get mumps or rubella we had chicken pox, the end of the world didn't come. >> that's right. these are serious diseases. now there are 100 cases in our country, for every ten cases, three of them have serious complications. >> like what? >> encephalopathy, swelling of the brain, bacterial pneumonia. they kill. >> if your kids get the vaccine and sits next to somebody who hasn't and has measles, if the kids have measles? >> if they've been vaccinated,
6:50 pm
no. i do not believe that holds water. >> so what will happen if more and more people fail to immunize their children? >> we're going to have a spreading epidemic and we're going to see major problems. >> what to the people who say your kid got vaccinated my kid doesn't. if my kid goes to school with measles, what do you care? your kid had the vaccine? >> that's one way of looking at it. out there in that population of little children there are immunodeficient children hiv children, all sorts of children that have immunodeficiencies. >> and you don't get the vaccine until you're 1. >> babies less than 1 are at great risk. and their disease can be fatal. >> sometimes they go with mom to pick up the kids at school. >> yes very dangerous. we have a big story on a decision to allow three parents to contribute to the dna of a single child. breaking news out of jordan now on what may happen after the isis terror group executed this jordanian pilot.
