are dead. i thought. every year. you all. and how the seed the end of the iraqi government forces continue to battle against al qaeda militants fled taking over two strategic cities and country secretary kerry says no troops on the sand but once i knew how the us plans to get involved just a hat and in chicago. the battle over gun control rages on a federal judge has just overturn the legislation banning the sale and transfer of don's within city limits what does this mean for a city with high crime or take a look at that debate. and

cruising down the highway of light the american has long had a love affair with the automobile of the lap later and show our team will take you for standing in the cars of the future. it's easy to read seven a m in washington dc. one year and a bit. you're watching our tea begin today with iraq were clashes have erupted between iraqi special forces and al qaeda linked militants. just outside the city of falluja it's the latest outbreak in a standoff that's taken hold of the sunni dominated province of anbar. according to the associated press the fighting resulted from the capture of an army officer and four soldiers in the area just a day earlier also in anbar province earlier today an iraqi government airstrike killed twenty five al qaeda linked militants. the class has also fallen a deadly attack in which a suicide bomber rammed his explosives ladaden truck

into a police station northern city of fur coat the attack killed two people wounding fifty five more. in recent days iraqi security forces and allies from sunni tribes have been battling militants to recapture to bury strategic cities me on our comments. the loser in her money. however currently the two cities are at least partially under the control of al qaeda. only this infighting is seemingly a continuation of the heightened violence seen in twenty thirteen years and now marks and most flights and seen since two thousand when the us military still had a presence in the country according to united nations figures last year the violence claimed the lives of about eight thousand nine hundred iraqis these latest developments and right now my awesome peterson editor at the lip libertarian republican congress and the cement are going swimming center years ago the us military led to major advances on militants including jacques time he'll even though the actors on the ground or different kind

of feels like a zappos is this new history repeating itself. it sort of insane mean the idea that we were going to be able to govern iraq in the long term was not tenable of one knew that we were hoping that iraqis to secure the forces with a real step up and meet the challenge. but we have a problem that small type wrong problem. here we have a problem of hearts and minds and have a military problem it's very difficult to defend the anbar province. he took the lives of one thousand americans combat troops to take the anwar province i think there were something like sixty eight troops killed inclusion the worst urban combat since vietnam so it's all about a matter of how we fund our military strategy which were still fighting the seoul the first generation second generation of styles of warfare in the way the terrorists were for now the very de centralized and so what they can do is they can move and they can. they can change positions all over the course the countries that they can stay locked in the weather we've been fighting the power of fights in the past again has always been to sort of out second baseman route try and set up of diplomacy and install a new government but

regime change can really work in iraq although the almost the government is there it's a highly unstable and they don't really have the sort of mandate from the citizens that they require in order to govern that large of a country. will the iraqis three separate countries how to use the seasons the kurds shia and they have always been sort of war with one another something for the problem here was a misunderstanding of the middle eastern political situation because the americans try and look everything in terms of for the most warlike fun to look too. we would take over the enemies often so you take over their city capital city believe that he would pertain to our surprise test is not how this works in tribal regions the anbar province is an enormously in its forty miles west of baghdad and it's that sort of symbolic that is so close to the capital but there's no way to really win the hearts and minds of people on the arm bar province just because you may have taken over back to my asbury in india very complicated situation. as secretary c kerry has said that we will not be sending troops into

the region. however the us is in salary deliveries of military equipment do you think the us senate has an obligation. i'm now in going forward to help iraq militarily. it's an obligation to help direct militarily i'd use the obligation to protect american national security interest to the extent that sending help hellfire missiles to the iraqi government or selling the loans to the molecule will increase the security the united states that remains the question so you really have to ask yourself one or the interests of united states who would try to protect of the fledgling democracy and democracy in iraq are we really try to protect american national security. i think that arguably the setting up more on the missiles and groans to the maliki government is in the state would result in long term stabilization of long term stabilization efforts and have to come through diplomatic effort into secretaries to john kerry's of acknowledging this he sang that you know we may be sending arms and weapons but were not convinced any american troops in there which will be interesting to play in the local student throughout the depression as you know we're in trouble and what implications that i'm doing this now while the implications of doing this now this means that

there will be more bloodshed there will be more al maliki is obsolete and try to hold onto power for authentic and this is how people operate in this region. so really what we're doing or try to prop up a regime that has the backing of america whether or not that actually has a few national security of the united states is real it's a question i all i wanna take a look at something that at congressman former congressman ron paul said in his weekly column said last month the us it nearly hundred air to ground missiles to the iraqi air force to help combat the surging on kayak ironically at the scene of ten groups the us is helping iraqis calm that are benefiting from the us covert and overt war to overthrow a site next door in syria wind in the us government learned from its mistakes. i guess the point here he absolutely has a point in living is interesting is that the obama nutrition has signaled that not only will they now plan on sending more troops in the present obama has come out and said that he will actually vote to repeal the authorization of military force in iraq which is very big news on the first time

that that happened was back in two thousand eleven when summer rainfall introduced on the senate which was struck down the demonstrations of the new one sign right now so it appears that this may be some something both short term strategy in the obama decision to send these muscles now but that may not be long term commitment. how significant is a bit more symbolic corps actually i don't really see is that significant to be quite fair because the reality is is that we have disagreed with him for a long time if you do what we did with egypt we stop stitch a concern on stage it because of the us price that was going down there you can take a look what happen in syria i think that the president right now sort of had to drop back on his heels from the inability to use of the of military force in syria. so the administration may be taking his conciliatory steps in this and well we have an obligation to provide them with arms and weapons but there's no way to have a long term agreement it seems as if the signal and they're not interested in store longer a right old course at iraq's borders syria has another highly contentious the situation on the other so much instability that's growing in the region as a whole how do you think

the international community should really be in dealing with this sense as a threat going forward i think really having to deal with this is they have to start to win hearts and minds of the battle for what we call property rights piece of property rights in the swamp thing that hasn't been introduced to the discussion yet is that the idea that people should have the look on their own property and says something the middle east they haven't messed up a long tradition of electing united states we have this dish of pasta liberal blue of the classical liberals in the proper dress. when people are invested in their own countries when they're invested in their own communities when they owned businesses. it incorporates the kind of culture. it means he will not want to bomb the buildings that they don't get a job on something if people feel it they don't have a stake in the communities the long term there's no way that you don't have security because people don't feel invested in so i think that the idea of free market capitalism while before i was a fair aunt doris and easy ideas or kept introduce the people of middle east because i think that's the only way that the guests too invested in their own communities. lompoc plan falling out time for the awesome pietersen the libertarian republican tom kean so much cuter. and

the first shipment of chemical weapons material has let syria according to the un the vessel at the northern syrian port of black on it today and was escorted by russian and chinese warships mobile was suppose to take place before december thirty first of last year but the logistics were held up as a result of syria's worsening conflict. the export and destruction of the most dangerous substances in the syrian arsenal have long been considered the most hazardous part of the operation when syria agreed to carry on as part of a deal reached three months ago. the pledge came as a result of intense talks between russia and united states which ultimately converted us military action in the country and if the judges overturned chicago's ban on the sale and transfer of firearms ruling that the city's ordinance is aimed at reducing gun violence are unconstitutional the ruling is the latest in a series of legal blows to the city staffers to restrict gun ownership since the supreme court ruled chicago's handgun ban unconstitutional back in

twenty ten arrives the city's latest live trees had argued that the don sale ban makes it harder for criminals to get their hands on my hands and thirty five page opinion published on monday district court judge edmund chang agreed that the city had a fundamental duty to protect its citizens and knowledge that all the stark reality facing the city each year is thousands of shooting victims and hundreds of murders committed with a gun. but he added that on the other side of this case is another feature of government certain fundamental rights are protected by the constitution put outside governments reached including the right to keep and bear arms for self defense under the second man and ultimately judged and found that the city failed to get man's hand that banning the sale of guns by licensed dealers was necessary to reduce gun violence. when you talk a little bit more about this ruling and what it means going for a time joined by ben swan investigative journalist and founder of ben's aunt dot com. savannah and they understand a chicago was the last city to allow

presidents to have handguns in their homes and also once had one of the strongest hand and crackdowns in the country so first of all explain to me you know how big of a win is this for gun advocates but it's a big win on several levels first of all you consider the fact that the judge when back to the second amendment and ultimately said that this is something that you just read a minute ago that comes down to government does not have the right to restrict or prevent people from owning guns lawfully nice as essential that's what the law did hear the light you think i would say there's little bit of a slippery slope here because one of the things the judge saying did was he specifically mentioned the issue of chicago's almost failed policies even though they have this ban in place the fact that there are so many gun gets the gun murders in the city of chicago and almost use that as a justification for why he was i'm saying that this ban was unconstitutional. in doing so is ultimately saying that the matrix of by which this in the success of the slobber

the measures have bearing on whether or not its constitutional or not i don't agree with that. i think the judge got it wrong in that case that though whether this issue was unconstitutional as nothing to do with whether or not it's effective in preventing gun violence on a lead of the gilmore more into that in terms of the day job i think that that's the one slippery slope the gun rights advocates even though they consider this a victory they need to watch out for some greater good concept creeping its way into constitutional rights of that. so what were seen happen in the city of chicago at unprecedented rates of gun violence and so forth. do you think that ms the city that couldn't be benefited from the now struck down regulation. what is he really hasn't benefited from really any of the things of chicago's been doing look illinois was one of the last eight in the country to allow concealed carry. chicago has numerous on gun restrictions will know that the top the cities in the entire country when it comes to gun laws. and yet they just they have not seen the net result of that you would expect that if you have more gun laws and

fewer legal guns you would have less gun crime in the exact converse is true in chicago when you take chicago when you take your stand which are two cities with very similar demographics very similar numbers i in terms of our rates of of non whites rates of poverty on the size of the city population and yet the number of gun deaths in those two cities isn't even close uses about half the number of chicago and also the third and fourth largest cities in the country and say you have to be able to look at that and say so far with chicago was been intending to do in terms of controlling guns has not resulted in controlling violence. how many response to the rolling have broderick drill drill. i was a spokesman for the city's lot of time and had this to say that every year chicago police recover more in need of guns and officers in any city in the country a factor of lax federal ones as well as lax laws and alan white we need stronger gun safety laws are not increase access to firearms within the city

at its other jurisdictions surrounding the city had me that i can blog on lies dvd in a chicago would be better off. again if he goes back to the fact that that the argument can be made that if everyone around chicago would have to tighter gun restrictions they would be fewer gun crimes but again you go back to the comparison between houston and chicago in houston you have much more lax gun laws than in the other in taxes of course is a state where you can conceal carry in some places you can open carry in some places. i'm in the state of texas and particularly in houston. there's a lot more access to these guns and eight and again they don't have the same kind of gun violence so the key to the issue with chicago look is really comes down to a gang issue it comes down to a drug culture issue it comes down to i'm a turf war issues that come some family issues there a lot of different issues that surround what's happening in chicago and then we should downplay what's happening there should really look at it but legislating

your way to fixing this problem does not seem to be the answer seems to be the answer that. that in their chicago that the administration's there for several. i'm decades now really have pushed for we need to legislate our way out of violence and crime but it doesn't work that way you can't legislate your way out of cruddy you mention an era in and the judge did leave open a window for the city to appeal the case and mayor ron magill has already hinted that he now the city will probably do sell. in other options he would consider that with the more you know you consider more fair i guess sad to regulate the sale of firearms. what i think again the issue and i agree with you i think this will be appealed and the fact that the judge left it open to appeal again. that's concerning to me because of the fact that the judge really pointed to it on the numbers here and said hey if you give chicago had essentially seen on fewer gun deaths as a result of these laws. we keep him in place us with some like to me as i've read but the judge essentially wrote there and

that's the case the deal even open to appeal essentially saying prove to me that this is working. any chance that it is unconstitutional is unconstitutional. right that's really the point here um you know what are the steps the chicago can take in order to restrict this those are really good question said again he gets the more into. the i think of the discussion of what is driving the violence there. i don't think that we can have a reasonable conversation that guns are driving the violence in chicago. it's not the big guns are driving it it's the factors again going back to that the turf wars going back to the gang violence they're going back to so many of the socio economic issues that are taking place in chicago lead to the violence and ultimately perpetrated with god was not guns writing the violence while i turned to the nra has many people say it's disproportionate influence has played a role in all this. i resent me that one campaign director for the illinois council against handgun violence and that this is all a result of that as systematic breakdown i he

said that's that's the nra and are even game plan needs to find seats in filing suits to chip away a lot and get to their ultimate goal of the complete armed citizenry that we make of that argument what i think the nra certainly be in the lobby is often the lobby very effectively. we see that happen whether or not the play the role again in what the and the judge ultimately ruled. i can see a wall where the other whether it did or didn't because i really don't know how i would suspect that lobbying the judge by the nra would necessarily help of the nra look they have a vested interest in seeing americans own firearms and the nra has almost become kind of the poster child for the big bad gun lobby in and there this terrible force that is attempting to you know create chaos in america. at times it's like the nra becomes the red herring here were so focused on what the nra is doing. the bigger question should be what is being done that's effective in terms of

reducing in reducing violence and i've just done gaps and that's the other problem i think we haven't seen some of the media coverage. this is too often we look at just got and that's what's the overall rate of violent someone or cities in communities where we're seeing those rates drop what are they doing. it's not ever just a dumb thing you know some folks will tell you what you look in the comparison of states where they have been instituted conceal carry you get concealed carry and and violent crime rates drop and that's true in some cases instead of ohio. it's certainly true that since conceal carry came into law the rates of violent crime not just doubts but rate than i aggravated assault those numbers have dropped but it's never the result of dung vs done more guns less guns as being the sole factor but that's where we cannot we really got off track you're especially with media. it's easy to have the good guy in the bag i am. i guess we just fill in the dove plaintive who's with who you are a or government but at the end of the day these issues really are much more complicated than just how many guns on

the street. how many are not a very complicated and evil the very interesting to see what happens after his appeal abbott then swan investigative journalist and founder of the swan that calm thinking so much. the cure and was angeles county sheriff lee baca announced today that he will step down from his post at the end of the month and will not run for a fifth term as the county's top cop because he doesn't want of a canteen of negative contentious politicking. the decision comes on my terms. the sikh religion for a fifth term as sheriff. i will retire at the end of this month. so in conclusion was elected sheriff the past fifteen years. belfast. your core values. this great department the decision comes just a month after federal prosecutors filed the charges against a team and the share of current and former deputy
