implemented by giuliani and bill bratton. >> thanks to my panel and all of you for watching. i'm paul gigot. hope to see you right here next week. a fox news alert. the security as much as in denmark now calling a shooting at a meeting about freedom of speech a likely terror attack. one person confirmed dead three others were hurt. shots rang out at the cafe in copenhagen. where the event was being held and police are now on the lookout for the shooters who sped away in a car. the free speech event was put together by the controversial swedish artist lars vilks. he's fine, but one organizer thinks vilks was the target. he's faced death threats for his cartoons depicting the prophet muhammad.

>> thanks for joining us. we'll continue to follow the latest on that breaking story. but in the meantime we're following a suicide attack against an iraq -- or an air base in iraq carried out by two dozen terrorists from isis. this is according to the pentagon. it happened at the al assad air base where american and coalition troops are training iraqi forces. the pentagon says most of the militants died in the attack killed by those iraqi troops or by setting off their suicide vests. >> this is arguably the first in at least a couple of months if not more where they have had any success at all at taking any new ground. so this is -- this is an enemy that we still assess to be in a defensive posture. >> conor powell is live in jerusalem with the latest. >> reporter: yeah, heather ultimately the iraqi troops

repelled this attack by the isis insurgents but it raised questions about the capabilities of the iraqi troops and how vulnerable are american troops who are there as trainers? according to the pentagon and other reports, in recent weeks isis has been gathering soldiers and fighters near this base it's a huge sprawling military base in the western part of the country. isis even taking over a key town not too far, just a few miles away from this base. earlier this week. the attack on al asad was carried out for headlines, rather than to overtake the complex. it was carried out by two dozen or so isis fighters. so it does seem that it was there to generate more headlines than an assault. the pentagon says that iraqi troops were able to push back the insurgent fighters and u.s. marines as trainers were never in any type of danger, but at

least eight fighters did get through an outer ring perimeter and make it into at least part of the base. now, in the middle east there's a lot of calls for iraqi troops to be part of the ground offensive, to take back land, to take it to isis. this really demonstrates that the pentagon which has been saying that iraqi troops simply aren't ready for this type of counteroffensive it does sort of demonstrate that the pentagon is right on. but there were a lot of calls in the middle east, heather, for iraqi troops to be part of the ground invasion. to push back against isis. right now what we are seeing they aren't in in i position. that isis is only a few miles from one of their key bases. doesn't give a lot of confidence that the iraqi troops are able and ready to launch a counteroffensive against them. >> conor powell, thank you. well intense fighting in eastern ukraine even as a cease-fire looms. heavy attacks reported in the

port city and they try to bolster their positions ahead of the truce. it is supposed to go into effect at mid night. russia, ukraine, germany and france reached a deal to restore some measure of peace, but many people in the region or area are skeptical that the fighting will stop for good. a potential valentine's day massacre foiled in canada. police say that a chat stream helped them intercept two suspects planning a major attack on mall in halifax. one suspect killed himself when officers officers surrounded his home. another was arrested at the airport. a bloodbath was averted they said. >> had they been able to carry out their intentions the possibility for a large loss of life was definitely there. i would classify it as a group of individuals that had some beliefs and were willing to

carry out violent acts against citizens but there's nothing in the investigation to classify it as a terrorist attack. >> investigators say the woman confessed to the planned attack, adding that both suspects were apparently obsessed with the death and had many photos of mass killings. the u.s. labor secretary is in california this weekend to intervene in the contract dispute which has disrupted shipping along the west coast for a second weekend. both the port operators and labor unions asked president obama to get involved while he was traveling in california. ships at 29 ports are being forced to wait at sea unable to unload cargo which can cost the economy an estimated $2 billion a day. secretary tom perez is meeting with both parties this weekend to help resolve the issue. well, testimony will resume monday in the murder trial of the man accused of killing american sniper chris kyle. it was a dramatic and emotional first week. kyle's wife took the stand to

talk about her final phone conversation with her husband before eddie ray routh allegedly shot him and his friend at a shooting range. will carr is live in dallas with more. will? >> reporter: hi, heather. the crux of this case is whether routh was legally insane when he pulled the trigger, and taya kyle took the stand and described the last time she saw her husband, that she gave him a kiss and a hug just like any other day. prosecutors say that kyle and littlefield were trying to help routh whose family says he was battle ptsd. so they took routh a former marine to a gun range. that's where he shot both men a combined 13 times. then stole kyle's f-350 and took off and later getting into a dramatic chase with police officers before he was finally placed under arrest. we heard from routh's uncle yesterday. he says that he smoked pot with routh the morning of the

shooting and he testified that routh could tell the difference between right and wrong. we also learned routh had an antipsychotic drug after he spent time in a mental institution a week before the shooting. then late yesterday, we heard from a police officer who said he heard routh comment months after the shooting inside of a jail and evidently he said that routh said the reason that he shot both men is because they did not talk to him on the ride to the range. that was the last thing that the jury heard heading into the weekend. they have all weekend to think of that comment before the trial resumes on monday. coming up on the legal panel they will weigh in on the testimony so far and what routh's defense must do to convince the jury that he was temporarily insane at the time of the shooting. pope francis welcomes 20 new cardinals from around the world to the vatican. his message to them about the new role in the leadership of the catholic church coming up. and with the supreme court

knox news alert, back to the top story. look at copenhagen, a shooting a at free speech event left one person dead, three others injured. denmark calling it a likely terror attack. we are awaiting the picture of the suspect. we'll bring it to you when we get more details about this. we'll continue to follow this stoirp -- story as it continues to develop. we have time for a quick check of the headlines for you. at least 16 people are dead and 22 injured after a passenger bus collided with a freight train in northern mexico. mexican officials are

contributor and a former chief of staff to joe mansion khon. what are they looking at in this case of king versus burwell? does it meet the legal dock trip of standing? that shows a person or persons have suffered an injury a slap in the face, discrimination or adverse government action. in this case, with the oral arguments being scheduled for march 4th, we didn't know how the court will rule but what are your opinions about this case affecting obamacare? >> well, i mean i think what the court has to decide is whether or not all of these subsidies are unconstitutional. it says that people only living in states that set up exchanges are eligible to get the subsidies and democrats are saying they meant that more broadly, so those who get it through the federal exchange they're fine. people on the other side republicans and conservatives are saying no, the law is very clear. explicit about who is eligible,

who is not. so there have been lower court cases that have gone in both directions and should the supreme court rule that the law says what it says in black and white, you'll have almost three-quarters of the states, people in those states suddenly ineligible to receive government assistance to pay for these very expensive premiums. >> it seems like that could be problematic. >> it would be very problematic. if it happens and it's a big if because i have questions as to whether, you know, chief roberts in particular is going to you know basically undo what he helped create by, you know, deeming the obamacare constitutional. but putting that aside for a second, let's assume for argument's sake it's struck down, you'll have millions of people who are scrambling. the republicans have now done by my last count 60 repeal votes. it is how many years and they don't have any kind of proposal or suggestion of how to improve the law. i mean so politically, if it

happens, the republicans are going to be in a real box because you're talking about taking away something. it's one thing before people have something. but now that people have seen it, they have benefited from it, it could become a real political headache to say the least for republicans. >> yeah. yeah. you know, guy, look, a lot of republicans are looking at this sand they're hoping that the supreme court will do something like strip it away. it's a known fact that republicans in congress do not like obamacare. paul ryan, as we discussed basically stating that something has to be done. he's responding to the possible supreme court ruling that -- and especially telling his fellow republicans we have to have a contingency contingency plan. are you surprised, are any of you surprised that the republicans have waited this long to come one a contingency plan? >> well, first of all, i would say that a majority of the republicans don't like the law, a majority of the americans don't like this law. it's unworkable from the very

beginning and if the supreme court does strike down the sebastian did subsidies it's because of what the law said. this is a problem of the democrats' making. to your point, yes, i completely agree with paul ryan. it is long past due for republicans to come out with a unified front both on policy and on rhetoric ifrikes this down. they need to be ready with an alternative for the american people to say, we all know obamacare is a disaster. it's not working the way it was promised. it is falling apart at the seams because it was shoddily written and we have a better alternative and they have to get that together in next few months so they're prepared. paul ryan is 100% right on this. >> a lot of people are indeed very surprised that it's taken paul ryan to state this again because he's done it before. in the past, some of the republicans were slow to actually come up with some plans. although senators orrin hatch and richard burr and fred upton have drafted a health care plan and they're offering a difference. chris, what kind of difference can the republicans offer that

would be better than the affordable care act as we know it now? >> nothing. i mean, basically what they're going to offer is a proposal that makes things worse. that takes health care coverage away from millions of families. now, listen, i know republicans are never going to like obamacare. that is a given, but the notion that somehow this law has been a disaster, well, i guess, providing health care to millions of families for some republicans is a disaster. helping to reduce the cost of inflation of health care is a disaster. having you know health care basically in terms of the uninsured rate at the lowest level it's been in decades that's a disaster. if the -- this is an issue that from republicans' perspective they see health care as a luxury. for most americans they see it as a necessity. the idea that you'll take it away and come back with a proposal that basically limits it even further whatever the republican proposal is, it's taken them three years to come up with one sentence and they

haven't written it yet, but i just don't know how you do it without a severe political backlash. >> all right. i hear you chomping at the bit. real quickly, guy, but i have to wrap this. >> look, there are multiple iterations of the alternatives from the republicans. they haven't unified around one. >> how long does it take? >> hang on, i didn't interrupt you. >> i'm going to interinterrupt both of you. thanks so much. well we have a fox news alert to tell you about. we have received a photo of that suspect in the shooting at a cafe in copenhagen denmark. it happened at a free speech event, one person was killed three others injured. denmark now calling it a likely terror attack and there for you is the first shot of the suspect in that attack. reaction coming in to the suicide attack by isis against

an iraqi air base even as there's a fresh round of strikes against the terrorists making moves in iraq. k you mom, for protecting my future. thank you for being my hero and my dad. military families are thankful for many things. the legacy of usaa auto insurance could be one of them. our world-class service earned usaa the top spot in a study of the most recommended large companies in america. if you're current or former military or their family, see if you're eligible to get an auto insurance quote.

welcome back. as we reported a moment ago the pentagon says iraqi troops held off a suicide attack by isis fighters at an air base where they were undergoing training by american and coalition troops. about two dozen isis fighters died in the attack on the al assad air base. the pentagon also says isis fighters seized parts of the town of baghadi that is six miles away. we're joined now by captain chuck nash. he's retired from the u.s. navy in a fox news military analyst. thanks very much for joining us. >> my pleasure heather. >> what is isis trying to accomplish by attacking this particular base and how did they

go about doing it this time? >> well i think what they're trying to do is grab a lot of headlines which they've been very successful at doing because they know that the americans are there and that's the very sort of upfront area where the americans are. of course, we have americans in the green zone in baghdad and we have others counseling and consulting with the kurds up to the north. but as far as out in anbar province that's as far forward as you can get. they realize they can get to it. the other thing they're trying to do is show what they're willing to do what the americans and the iraqi forces are not willing to do, and that is they are willing to take horrendous casualty rates to make a point. they're bringing in foreign fighters who are coming in to die in jihad and so fine, they strap bombs to them and send them up to the gate and see if they can blow their way in and the rest of them get killed in the process. they're making a point grabbing headlines and demonstrating their will to win. >> but even if they were to go

through the gates and get in, this is a massive installation, so there's no way that they're going to overtake it, correct? so, they're really just trying to make that point? >> yeah i really believe so because if they really wanted to try to take down al assad, they would have to mass force and as soon as they did that our air power would go in and decimate that force. so, it's going to be harassing fire. it's going to be raids and things like that so you can't discount it because there's always a threat there because it is so far forward out in al anbar province. but the fact of the matter is for them to try to take it over and seriously mount an assault on that base, they would have to amount a force that would be at risk for our air force. >> from what i understand we did send in drones and we did also send in some apache helicopters.

what do you think the likelihood is of the u.s. troops getting involved in this now? >> i don't think u.s. forces are going to wind up in a combat situation unless a group, a raiding force does breach the wire and come in and, of course, our guys are armed so they will defend themselves and they'll take the fight to the enemy if they're inside the wire. but i think what you're really going to see is the stepped-up area of the reconnaissance in the area and 24/7 drones flying around making sure that these raiding parties don't get close to the wire again and strip alert both apache helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft so that should a sizable force make a move toward the base that they'll very quickly respond and snuff them out. >> what about increasing or reinforcing some what is it 350 marines that are currently there at the base right now? >> i'm sure they have plans to do that. there is an army group that's moving into kuwait that was just

announced today as either a reinforcing group or as an evacuation force. however, the central command wants to use them. but the marines that are there now could be reinforced. we could fly in reinforcements to them under the cover of darkness and make that even more robust force. but right now if you consider all of the iraqis that are in there carrying weapons and all of the marines that are in there carrying weapons, if isis wanted to really try to do it they would have to mount a big effort to get it. >> that would be big. all right, captain chuck nash, thank you so much for joining us. we appreciate it. well stick around we'll have our breaking news and attack in denmark that police call an act of terror. also shooting at a free speech event.

>> we'll continue to follow this developing story and bring you updates as we get them. in the meantime new reaction today to a suicide attack against an air base in iraq involving about two dozen isis militants. it happened at the al assad air bass in anbar province where american and coalition troops are training iraqi forces. the pentagon says most of the terrorists were killed either by iraqi troops or by detonating their suicide vests. our peter deesy joins us live from washington with more details. peter, what can you tell us? >> there are still more than 300 americans at the al assad base where there are teaching iraqi soldiers how to fight and military experts are concerned now that more is not being do you know to move these troops further away from the city that isis just took over. al baghadi. >> it seems like this administration we always wait until it's almost at a point of crisis before we actually start to, you know, start generating a plan and actually get to this. the reality is 320 surrounded

by what? you know, 1,000, 2,000, 3,000. how quickly? it only takes about 20 to 30 minutes of these guys from al baghadi to actually get to this area. so in terms of an actual rescue i think at this point if those plans haven't already been put into place it's probably too late for us to actually start moving things in quick order. >> this daring attack on the al assad base revealed a page of the isis playbook beginning with about two dozen islamic state fighters descending on the area wearing iraqi army uniforms. the first wave blew themselves up with suicide vests. the second wave followed with guns. they were all killed by iraqi security forces. pentagon says that is a good thing but there are big questions about what's going to happen next time. >> the fact is those 300 marines are the toughest guys around and they are well armed but the fact that the isis attack today didn't work doesn't mean that it couldn't work in the future. doesn't mean that something bad couldn't have been done. the fact is when you have the

enemy only nine miles away and that's almost like a pool table. >> the pentagon wants people to know the entire anbar province has not fallen to isis just one city al baghadi and some americans may have been able to hear gunshots and explosions during the attack but they say they remained a safe distance away. >> thank you for that report. we'll have plenty more from peter king tomorrow morning on "sunday morning futures" we'll hear what he thinks about the president's request for authorization of military force against isis. and does it go far enough? that's tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. eastern right here on the fox news channel. we are less than two hours away from a scheduled cease-fire in eastern ukraine but that looming truce doing nothing to stem the fighting which apparently raging up to the very last minute. we are live from the ukrainian capital of kiev. >> reporter: heather you are

right, that cease-fire deadline is fast approaching but peace nowhere in sight. for example, in the biggest rebel-held city of doneskt the ukrainian shells rained down on the city throughout the day and we've learned tonight as well a lot of civilian casualties. at the same time there's a rebel offensive raging around the ukrainian-held city of mariopol maybe the biggest problem for the cease-fire deals its ukrainian-held transport held. there are 8,000 ukrainian troops inside that town. it is being pounded relentlessly by rebel fighters. we've just been told by a rebel official those ukrainian soldiers have to surrender or else. meanwhile, the u.s. embassy here in kiev have released pictures today, satellite photos showing artillery, rocket launchers, air defense systems around that town. they claim they are supplied and

they are supported by the russian military. there are reports today of new moves by russian troops and vehicles around eastern ukraine. now for his part today, ukrainian president says if the russian-backed rebels keep fighting past this cease-fire timeline, he could declare a state of martial law in ukraine. that would mean a mass call-up of troops across this country and would put ukraine on full wartime footing. well, he denies it. critics say vladimir putin has already put his russian troops on a wartime footing and put them right inside ukraine. heather? >> greg palkot live for us thank you. africa's military has repel repelled the terror group of boko haram, they responded to heavy fire from the air and ground. the islamic terrorists

apparently dropped pamphlets as they were retreating the message inviting residents to join them in their jihad and also threatening to kill anyone who participates in elections scheduled for next month. new developments in the shooting deaths of three muslim students in north carolina. the fbi now launching an investigation in to whether the killings were a hate crime. palestinian officials also asking to join the investigation. because the victims were palestinian descent. meanwhile, president obama issuing a statement saying, quote, no one in the united states of america should ever be targeted because of who they are, what they look like, or how they worship. the incident happened at a housing complex near the university of north carolina apparently over some sort of parking argument dispute. 46-year-old craig steven hicks is charged with three counts of first-degree murder. and the fbi also monitoring an investigation in to the fire that destroyed a building at an

islamic center in houston. a spokesperson says the fbi would take a more active role if fire investigators determined it was arson and qualified as a potential hate crime. the fire caused an estimated $100,000 in damage. no one was hurt. to new england now where they just can't catch a break. another powerful winter storm is moving in, bringing heavy snow, bone-chilling temperatures and this the fourth -- fourth -- major storm to slam the area in less than a month. as old man winter refuses to let go of his grip. janice dean is live at the fox extreme weather center with the latest. and, janice i think that mother nature and old man winter are in some sort of fight so there's no love on this valentine's day. >> valentine's day well you know, the only thing i can say is people just need to snuggle up for the next 24 to 48 hours especially if you live in new

england because here we go again. this is our clipper system across the northeast. we have blizzard warnings for parts of the u.p. of michigan, from long island all the way up to maine so six states under blizzard warnings as we go through the overnight and into tomorrow, so we're getting some snow here in new york city and boston also getting snow, interior sections of the northeast but, again this is a new england event once more. one more time. let's take a look at the forecast temperatures and the radar. 80 on sunday. still going strong in boston and in hartford up towards portland and bangor maine and, again, we could be dealing with over a foot of snow for our friends in boston. there's some of the forecast models looking at 3 to 4 inches in new york but, again, anywhere from 7 to 10 inches in boston. west of the boston area that's where they're going to get over a foot. and this snowfall alone could bring us up to the third snowiest in boston and there's more snow on the way if you can

believe it. also want to point out blizzard conditions as i mentioned along the coast because we could feel gusts 50 to 70 miles per hour overnight tonight into sunday. and even through monday. that cold air is going to sink southward. we're going to feel some of the coldest air that we felt in years across the northeast. with windchills anywhere from minus 25 minus 10 even minus 35 up towards new england. if i could, we're into this pattern, we're going to see the potential for more storms heading into monday across the south. we could be dealing with an ice storm, all right? monday and tuesday. then we're going to watch this low move up the coast again on wednesday for another potential nor'easter. so much going on! >> wow. and, janice, it's just february. >> we have some time, my friend. >> well, we're glad that we have you on board. >> i appreciate that. warm hugs to everybody at home. >> thank you. >> okay.

>> thank you. federal prosecutors taking new action against outgoing governor john kitz dez haber. >> they are requesting electronic communications between the governor and his fiancee and 15 others, hours after the longtime democratic governor announced his resignation following allegations that his fiancee used their relationship to enrich herself. the resignation takes effect on wednesday. >> bizarre story there. >> yeah. coming up a new poll looking at potential gop presidential candidates in the early voting state of new hampshire. who is leading the pack? we'll tell you. and who's trailing? >> talking politics and elections already. but why this taxi driver is pushing a police officer by his car. we will get the details. and the deaths of american snapper chris kyle. why a former marine said he decided to kill him. >> i don't know.

welcome back. time for a quick check of the

headlines. two al jazeera journal i up for a retrial. nearly 200 pilot whales stranding themselves on a beach in new zeeland. about 140 of them died but marine biologists and volunteers say they managed to get some 60 whales back in the water. take a look at this video from china. it might raise a question what's wrong with taxi drivers today. this taxi driver pushes a police officer by his car, then drives the cab with the officer on the hood. the driver ran away, but later turned himself in. wisconsin governor scott walker's stirring up some serious buzz as a potential candidate for president. a new hampshire poll shows him with a seven-point lead over jeb bush, but the question can he keep that momentum going for another 20-plus months we have

a long way to go. so let's bring in charlie hurd the columnist for "the washington times." thank you for joneg usining us. he is the it guy at the moment but does he have staying power? >> every time we discuss this we need to begin by saying only a fool would make predictions about a race like that won't be concluded for more than a year from now, so let me get started now. the truth of the matter is scott walker has plenty going against him. he's not particularly a caris mat you can guy. he's not a tall man, he's not a scintillating speaker, all of these things in the modern age are very important, rightly or wrongly they're very important in picking a presidential candidate, but he's got the one thing that is i think the most crucial thing, he is not from washington. he is not of washington. he is a governor. he's a governor of a state that is not a reliably republican

state, but he's managed to succeed there. far better than republican candidates at the top of the ticket have in recent years. and i think that the distaste for washington and washington politicians is going to drive this election and in particular the republican primary and i think that that is why we're seeing him shoot to the top in so many polls and, again, only a fool would make such a prediction but i think, you know, that because he's had some real successes as governor i think that it's very possible that he does have some staying power to remain a contender. >> and he's out there raising some money as well right now and money talks and he's managing to do that and infiltrate some areas where chris christie has had a stronghold, also jeb bush. >> well, you know, you know, last week or the week before, you know, we had what we thought was going to be a showdown

between mitt romney and jeb bush and that was all about establishment and money. and now that mitt romney is out, and, you know, a lot of those big money supporters are looking for a horse to back, and the fact that they aren't flocking to jeb bush tells me that, you know, the establishment argument for jeb bush isn't panning out very well. and the fact that, as you point out, heather you know, that scott walker is doing a very good job of raking in some of those big early establishment-type donors means that he really does understand the game. and whether we like it or not as you say, the game is all about the money. >> and we mention the new hampshire poll at the top of the segment. something i found was also interesting in that, coming in at number three, 14% of the voters who were polled are unsure and that is ahead of chris christie and rand paul. 14% of people unsure. what does that tell you? >> well, i think that it means

that republican primary voters are very open at this moment and they're not necessarily looking for that it -- you know, the establishment person that republicans often wind up just sort of lining up behind because they did the best job in the last race. i don't think that's what -- i think these voters are actually looking for somebody. i think that they feel desperate. it's eight years of president obama and they do not like what has gone on for eight years and i think that they are very seriously kicking the tires and that's why a guy that isn't, you know, he doesn't look like he came from, you know, central casting of political candidates. scott walker could really get a long, good look from voters all across the united states. >> he's run into a couple bumps in the road already, though, and i wanted you to comment on that as we wrap up. the issue, the debate over not finishing college, then the debate over the answer to

evolution that he gave. >> well, i think that a lot of people, voters do not care about that. a lot of voters, you know, they, you know, what they care about is whether the person has some, you know, good common sense, some principles and is going to lead the country in the right direction. and, you know, what is his, you know, education degrees, you know, we've got the highest education degreed guy you could possibly have in the white house right now and it's not working out. so i think that -- i think that a lot of the media it's an easy thing to sort of make a story about largely because we just want to be having a story to talk about scott walker which is understandable but i don't think at the end of the day his reticence to -- the debate over evolution, i just don't think voters care about it. >> well, we'll see. charlie hurt thank you so much for joining us. great conversation. >> thanks, heather. >> thanks.

america the land of the free, home of the brave, owes a debt of gratitude to our u.s. military veterans. they are the men and women who have sacrificed so much in defense of the liberty we treasure and in today's "beyond the dream" we focus on one corporate ceo who owns a technology company and says it's important for companies to give to veterans who have kept the american dream alive. kneel edwards is the ceo of pango a small but growing company that's tried to take the headache out of parking. >> people do not like paying for parking with quarters. we allow you to pay for parking our mobile phone. very simple you press parking and pay for it. >> pango just launched in phoenix this week. beyond its claim of making life less stressful for commuters it donates $1 of every customer sign-up to help ease the burden of homeless veterans. >> it's really tragic. there are -- the statistics are

there are 49,000 veterans in any one night across america today that are homeless and a lot of these folks need that extra helping hand. >> edwards has never served in the military but he gained a great deal of respect for those who do serve while growing up and attending a military school which provided him with a great education. >> i grew up in south carolina. you know, in columbia, south carolina. i attended the citadel down in charleston, south carolina. >> edwards says his experience at the citadel paved the way for him to succeed in life but adds his greatest advice always came from his grandfather a man with very little education, but a great deal of wisdom. >> he grew up in the depression. he had an eighth grade accomplished so much as a man without an education and you never would have known it and what it inspired me. he said there's two things. there's two things people can't take away from you. they can't take away your

education from you and they can't take their accomplishments away from you. >> from his humble beginnings in south carolina he works and travels to various countries around the world. he said those experiences only solidify his belief in the american dream. >> the u.s. is really one of the greatest countries in the world. everywhere where i've traveled whether it's been to africa, whether it's been in china, whether it's been in europe people look to us as their guiding light of what's good and what's right. we're just such a symbol of leadership and prosperity and freedom. >> edwards says his life is based on the philosophy of changing the world by giving back as a ceo of a growing company he issues this challenge to other corporate leaders. >> my challenge is if every company would donate $1 of their customer acquisition marketing to helping other people all of a sudden you would see a big effect locally. you can make a big difference,

you know, and the amounts vary on the size of the company. we're a small company we're not going to give hundreds of thousands of dollars but it all starts with one step and then it becomes, you know, a march to real change. i think this is something that deserves our -- merits our country caring about these people who have kept us free. >> so true and so good to see that a program like that exists, of course, other corporations throughout the country are now doing that. there are various companies that will hire a vet, here's a gentleman who says let's save the vet who is homeless. >> a nice reminder we are the greatest cun and he said as he visited other countries everybody says that. >> yeah, a beacon of hope. >> yep. coming up isis once again on the move taking over a town near a key iraqi military facility after a failed suicide attack on the base. could this bold new aggression mean something bigger is in the works? captain bob wells is here. and police in canada saying they have broken up a mass

shooting plot that was just hours away from happening. at ally bank no branches equals great rates. it's a fact. kind of like mute buttons equal danger. ...that sound good? not being on this phone call sounds good. it's not muted. was that you jason? it was geoffrey! it was jason. it could've been brenda. i'm louis, and i quit smoking with chantix. quitting smoking is a challenge and it's a lot easier to go into a fight when you've got somebody that's got your back. having chantix as a partner made it more successful. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. chantix helped reduce my urge to smoke. some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. some people had seizures while taking chantix. if you have any of these stop chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of mental health problems, which could get worse while taking chantix or history of seizures. don't take chantix if you've had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. if you develop these stop chantix and see your doctor right away as some can be life-threatening. tell your doctor if you have a history of heart or blood vessel problems

or develop new or worse symptoms. get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. use caution when driving or operating machinery. common side effects include nausea trouble sleeping and unusual dreams. chantix absolutely helped me quit smoking. ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. if you're taking multiple medications does your mouth often feel dry? a dry mouth can be a side effect of many medications. but it can also lead to tooth decay and bad breath. that's why there's biotene available as an oral rinse toothpaste, spray or gel. biotene can provide soothing relief and it helps keep your mouth healthy too. remember, while your medication is doing you good, a dry mouth isn't. biotene, for people who suffer from a dry mouth.

and welcome back. it is the bottom of the hour. time for the top of the news. danish authorities frantically searching for what they now believe is a single gunman after an apparent terror attack in copenhagen. officials say the suspect opened fire at a free speech event at a cafe leaving one person dead and several others injured. in canada police say that they thwarted what could have been a horrific attack targeting a mall on valentine's day. they say the two suspects age 23 and 19 were planning to go there and kill as many people as possible before committing suicide. authorities have a female suspect in custody. they say the other one fatally shot himself. and with less than two hours

to go until a scheduled cease-fire the fighting in ukraine raging on. russia claiming its support for the international peace effort but the obama administration releasing some new satellite images that they say show kremlin troops gearing up for battle. u.s. and coalition forces striking at more than a dozen isis targets in iraq and syria in new air strikes. officials say several isis tactical units and a bomb making factory were destroyed after isis militants at an air base where hundreds of u.s. marines have been training the iraqi military. and the pentagon says it appears several attackers may have penetrated iraqi defenses before being killed. captain bob wells is a retired navy captain and was national security adviser to former vice president dick cheney. sir, it's good of you to join us today. >> thank you. >> we do know that isis dressed up as iraqi forces going in to

that air base and that they did detonate some suicide attack vests. getting that kind of penetration as general jack keene says was for publicity more than anything else but yet it's a threat to our own military. >> i agree and i agree with general jack keane. i saw that interview yesterday. i think we need to look at that strategy and i think we need to be prepared for more surprises. we've got the training mission. we've got a good command and control to support that training mission in iraq, but the bigger question is do we have the right strategy to actually achieve the mission, to actually defeat or even deny and disrupt what isis continues to do in iraq. al anbar is a little bit out there and al baghadi city now is under their control. >> we've heard from congressman peter king who says they're only nine miles away from our troops putting our troops in harm's way, even though our troops are there to teach and to train the iraqi forces but, you know, when

we go back to the days of the iraqi war, all of this was supposed to have been prevented because we were training the troops up and we saw those troops flee. however, in this particular situation we have seen the iraqi troops repel that aggressive behavior by about 25 isis militants. but, sir we've got an overwhelming force facing a small number of troops there. how can we defend ourselves and react and respond quickly enough when they're only nine miles away? >> well, there's two good things here and i'd like to unpack each of them. first of all the iraqi security forces did respond and they are still as the admiral said yesterday didn't really penetrate the inner areas where the u.s. forces were. there was camouflage with regard to the isis forces getting on to the base itself. but i also think the american command and control, the american intelligence gathering and as was first stated it's going to take upwards of three

years to actually train the iraqi security forces to get them ready for this particular large swath of territory in iraq that isis has taken over. so i think we dodged a bullet yesterday. unfortunately those iraqi security forces were killed. but at the same time isis is going to try to surprise us and you can expect to see more of these. i would like to pick up on what general keane said yesterday we need to be surprised for the future surprises and we definitely need to make sure that the iraqi security forces are ready before they enter into these new missions. >> part of the plan of the president is to have the special forces respond to these kind of matters, to deal with isis as they get more actionable intelligence. that requires putting some sort of intelligence on the ground. we have to have some human intelligence there. will it be iraqi forces or will it be u.s. special forces? >> i think it's going to be

american forces and in support of the iraqi forces as well. i think we have about 2600 american forces there. i've seen planning figures looking at what it takes to actually have the capability for quick reaction forces, maybe a combat air brigade with apache helicopters, making sure we have special forces on the ground to understand working with the iraqi security forces and the seventh iraqi regiment to determine the critical interests to target. it will be a long, deliberate process. you just stated kelly, we need to have the human intelligence on the ground to have the battle space and take appropriate action to really defeat this particular threat in local areas. it will take a larger measure of effort, though, to actually think about recapturing this territory and looking at the size of iraq and in particular the northern area around mosul. >> so much has been lost and so much more to gain back. captain bob wells, retired navy captain. good of you to join us today. thank you for your perspective,

sir. good day to you. >> thank you very much, kelly. >> all right. a potential breakthrough in the fight against certain cancers. why the hiv virus may be the new miracle. we've got the latest not a live report. plus, we're learning more about a possible motive from a key witness in the tragic death of legendary navy s.e.a.l. chris kyle, after dramatic and emotional first week of the american sniper trial our legal panel takes up the case next.

and welcome back. a dramatic and emotional first week in the murder trial of eddie ray routh a former marine who allegedly shot and killed american sniper chris kyle and his friend at a shooting range. one of the key witnesses this week was former county sheriff -- or deputy gene cole. here's what he had to say. i heard mr. routh say i shot them because they wouldn't talk

to me. i was just riding in the back seat of the truck and nobody would talk to me. they were just taking me to the range so i shot them. i feel bad about it but they just wouldn't talk to me. i'm sure they forgive me. let's bring in misty merritt, a trial attorney, and robert salk a defense attorney and former prosecutor. thank you both for joining us. >> thank you. >> so, that's what the juries was left with as they took a break for the weekend. who does that benefit most? how does that help or hurt first of all the prosecution robert? >> i think it definitely helps the prosecution because it shows he has the mental state to acknowledge what he did and say why he did it. if this was the psychosis that the defendant is claiming that happened, how is he remembering it and speaking in such detail about it to the authorities so i definitely think this was a home run for the prosecution to leave the weekend on. >> it absolutely was, i 100% agree. basically what the defense needs to show is that he didn't understand right from wrong. right there in that quote we

hear, i feel badit. that really says i know i know that was a wrong act to commit. and that bodes very well for the prosecution, and it's very detrimental to the defense case. >> what about the uncle we heard from, who testified that he had smoked pot with him, what is it the day of or the night before? >> right. there was -- i believe it was marijuana, might have been laced with some formaldehyde and alcohol found in the house and psychiatric medication and that's something the defense is obviously going to cue in on. and they executed a search warrant of the house and all these things were found there and it shows he had a history of this. in a lot of insanity defense defenses are trying to establish insanity at the time it happened. he was in the va hospital before this happened and so many other things to build a case. i don't think they'll be successful. he killed the most popular veteran in american history, in my opinion but they actually do have stuff to work with, but the

marijuana thing's just going to all play in to the psychosis. >> the defense is going to play up this, oh, he's a victim because he was overseas and play on the heartstrings of the jury and say, listen, he has this mental disability because of his service to our country. but it's not going to be successful. the ptsd alone that's not going to do it you have to show that he didn't know right from wrong and that's very undercut especially by the fact that he ran away from the police officers. he took the truck and tried to escape. that really shows, like, you're trying to get away with something. >> we heard a 911 call from someone who is -- in the 911 call said i think this guy is crazy or he's on drugs or something like that. >> his sister calls 911 because after he commits this shooting he drives to taco bell and buys two burritos and he drives to his sisters and he says i sold my soul to the devil for a pickup truck and he acknowledged to his sister -- >> would a sane person drive to

taco bell after he shot two people? >> that's what the defense will lay out. of course, not, no sane person goes to taco bell and drives to his sister's house and does this. however, the problem you'll have is -- i'm sorry, that the defense is going to start cuing in his sister says he's crazy chris kyle and the other victim in the truck are texting this guy is crazy, all things they'll try to use their advantage. i don't think it will work. >> they will use it to their advantage but there's one thing about being deeply troubled and having this disability and not being culpable for murder, that what we're talking about here, whether or not he was cullable for murder because he knew his actions were a crime. >> the issue is whether he knew right from wrong and his actions were a crime and against the law not really whether he was insane or has the ptsd. >> right. ptsd alone is not going to do it. that's not really the issue ptsd, the prosecution concedes, yes, we understand he had ptsd

and the diagnosis but it's not -- >> chris kyle shot six times and chad littlefield shot seven times. >> execution style. it wasn't random where he turns and shoots. >> oops. >> it was calculated and cold-blooded, that's what the prosecution will cue in. use the injuries and autopsy reports to support it and, again, i think the prosecution has a very, very strong case. >> juries are not likely to let somebody off you are not culpable for your conduct. they are already skeptical of that. >> we'll see. we'll see what they decide. thank you very much for joining us. appreciate it. kelly, you have more coming up. tonight greta van susteren revisits the case of a beauty queen who mysteriously vanished a decade ago. here's a sneak peek. >> the investigation immediately focused on the few mysterious clues found at tara's house. >> i began walking toward the front door in the pathway, lying

on the grass i saw a latex glove that seemed out of glove out of place and not normal. >> that's not something you see on the crime scene. >> a latex glove would be something unusual in her front yard? >> it's a blue latex glove one that you would seen worn by law enforcement. she had no latex gloves anywhere inside the house. >> the next door neighbor told me that she heard dolly barking about 2:00 a.m. that sunday morning. and she said it was very common for dolly to bark off and on during the night, but that particular night she said that dolly just kept on barking. she would not stop. >> greta investigates vanished without a trace, airing tonight at 10:00 p.m. eastern and again tomorrow at 9:00 right here on fox news channel. and still to come, americans have a little more money in their pockets these days thanks to low gas prices, but retail sales are slumping, so where's the cash going?

nissan. innovation that excites.

all right. it's a real retail sales mystery going on right now. stores and restaurants report slumping sales for a second straight month, but it comes at

a time when americans have more money in their wallets because of low gas prices. question is, where is all that extra cash going? gary good to see you. where is the money? >> i think you simply have a combination of the consumer is still in plenty of debt so they are paying off debt and deciding to save. for me it's a little bit of a surprise because gas prices dropping amounted to about $100 billion tax cuts so surprising numbers aren't better. >> look, we misspoke. restaurant numbers are not slumping. people are spending the money apparently going out to eat, which is a good day for today, valentine's day. people will be out spending money to eat. is it also an indication people are also saving money? >> i think people are looking towards the future and finally,

i actually think it's getting right. people need to start thinking long term instead of every time they have a dime spending 20 cents. that's what we have seen throughout the last 50 years. that's where we had this credit card society. longer term, it's not a bad thing as long as gas prices stay down. let's hope they don't go back up. >> what is in your forecast for that? >> i think we are staying down for a while. i suggest we'll be in some sort of trading range here between $2 and $2.50. i think we'll be under $2 again swiftly. let's hope that happens because for me nothing bad happens when gas prices come down. the biggest expense anybody has. >> is there still some trepidation though out there among consumers in terms of being uncertain about the economic future considering we have the forces coming against us, economic forces from china and russia and other countries that have tapped into our economic power and can drain us?

>> i think the big worry has always been one word and that's jobs. it's been getting better, but it's still not great shape. if you add in the labor participation they have taken out, we still would be around 9% unemployment. that's not good news. while things are better there is still a worry about what's to come in the future. that's why i think you are seeing people hold back more than they would in the past. >> gary it's always about jobs. have we done enough good work on that level? there's always room for more. looking ahead what can we expect in a few short weeks now about our economic forecast? >> well with, i think the economy is better. i've been saying for years i think we'll have a good quarter bad quarter. things are better. i think the big issue right now is there is still some uncertainty. there are proposals out of the administration wanting to raise taxes on what they call the privileged few and people that employ others. and of course the higher costs

on obamacare doesn't help if that continues, i think things will stay down and not get better. it's a big problem going forward. >> so there are stress fractures out there we have to be concerned with and perhaps it's why people are holding on to that limited cash they do have for that rainy day? that's something like you said we've never done before. at least i find that to be encouraging. >> i love when people are saving. i love when people are recognizing you don't have to spend every time you have. that's great longer term for the economy. i'm not sweating the short term numbers too much. >> i wish i talked to you before i got that valentine's gift. thanks, gary. >> pleasure. thank you. >> talk to you later. want to save money. >> she is worth every penny, right? absolutely. it's a potential breakthrough. this is a big story here in the fight against cancer. pennsylvania researchers using a form of hiv as a treatment and they say it has helped put a

number of patients into remission. brian has more from new york. >> reporter: the most lethal part of the hiv virus is its ability to disguise itself. now scientists are using that virus' ability to travel easily within cells to help fight cancer. researchers at the university of pennsylvania school of medicine are pre-programming, teaching a patient's own white blood cells to fight their own cancer. the dna in these cells are genetically modified with instructions to target the cancer and newly equipped with a part of the hiv virus that will allow these new cells to reproduce in the body. >> this is targeted right to a patient's tumor. and it is personalized in the best sense that we can think of in it's targeted to their own

tumor. >> reporter: so far the experimental therapy has been used to fight acute and chronic leukemia and on hodgkin's lymphoma. since 2010 of the 125 patients who have received the trials, more than 2/3 have gone into full or partial remission including 36 children. dr. doug olson has had four cancer treatments since he was diagnosed with chronic leukemia in 1996. in 2010, half his bone marrow was cancerous and he was running out of options so he signed up for the therapy and in less than four weeks after treatment he was in full remission. >> literally, it was the income week dr. porter's exam room and he said they couldn't find a cancer cell anywhere. >> reporter: dr. olson bought a sailboat immediately after and has been cancer-free four years now. he even ran his first half marathon with his son. >> it's a wonderful feeling of

accomplishment to get across the finish line. >> reporter: still, this is experimental. questions remain. how long will remission last and can this work for other cancers? for now, this fuels another cancer fighter and that's hope. >> that is great news. cancer-free for four years. thank you very much. >> that is fantastic. what a great way to end something with hope. that will do it for us. the news continues at the top of the hour. i'm kelly wright. >> i'm heather chilleders. see you back here for fox report. happy valentine's day. imagined gives you tools and support to get the career you'll love. find more real possibilities at aarp.org/possibilities.
