8:00 am
outrage on attack thursday on a u.n.-run school in gaza. used as a shelter. at least 16 were killed. 200 injured. a local hospital was overwhelmed. many of the wounded very young. the israeli military offered differing explanations of what happened over the active twitter account. hamas fired from a populated area near the shelter and prevented civilians from evacuating after we sent warnings. the u.n. chief responsible for the school said there's no warning. >> were militants operating inside the school? >> no. we're strict about the neutrality of the installation. >> they tweeted that maybe the school was hit by one of the rockets hamas continues to fire into israel. also today several rockets launched from gaza toward israel fell short. >> do you know who struck this facility? >> we can't say with certainty.
8:01 am
initial indication it came from israeli forces. >> and israeli military spokeman said perhaps it was an israeli misfire. >> we operated in the area and used mortars and there's a possibility there was an error. >> at the hospital, none of the victims belief israel's claim to be protecting civilians. the u.n. is demanding an investigation. that was richard reporting there. joining me now is martin fletcher and ayman mohyeldin on the phone from gaza. ayman, i'm beginning with you. palestinian leaders have dubbed it a day of rage. we saw images of the turbulent protests over the last 24 hours or so. can you describe the scene now? >> well, the scene in gaza has been very much consistent what we've seen over the last several days in terms of the fighting here. the protest has been concentrated -- as a result of
8:02 am
the images broadcast out of gaza there's a agree graphical disconnect and they see it as what they describe as an aggression that is pretty much gone unpunished by the international community. it's seen here in gaza is of anger. they're disappointed and upset of with what happened yesterday. there's fighting take place. the israeli military continues to shell along the eastern corridor of the territory that runs the entire length of the strip. and we've seen it throughout the course of the day as well. a lot of people leaving their homes. leaving the hospitals that are suppose supposed safe shelters. they're leaving the shelters to find other places to stay. it's too dangerous to stay in the northern part of the territory. >> more than 800 reported palestinians killed and the
8:03 am
conflict flaring up. even the shelters don't appear to be safe. is there a level of desperation there and might that yield a truce of some kind? do you think it's only spurring more furry? >> tii think it's the latter. there's a sense of desperation among the officials. the u.n. officials who have to cope with the humanitarian crisis. there's a sense of crisis among health officials who are coping with the rising casualties. beyond that it's among order palestinians in population are desperation for the violence to end. i have not met a single palestinian in gaza who hasn't had had -- there's a tremendous amount of concern about what is going to happen to them. that sense of desperation is not yet putting enough pressure on the reality on the ground to end the violence. it does not seem, at this point, that either side the israelis or
8:04 am
the palestinian militant factions are ready to comprise on the positions for truce. >> ayman mohyeldin on the phone. thank you very much. martin, we'll go to you. israeli forces on high alert particularly around jerusalem. we've heard reports of more rockets being fired. talk about the scene in israel today. what is it like? >> well, there have been rockets fired here. there's not a lot great deal of stress in israel by the rockets. ayman was talking about the support hamas has in gaza for the continue. it's the same in israel. in israel 80% of the israelis are behind the prime minister in what he's doing in the fighting. and israeli appear to be evenly split with a slight majority in saying that israel should carry-on with the fighting until
8:05 am
they are able to eliminate the threat from hamas. >> and martin, that makes perfect sense, of course, israel is tired of having rockets launched into their do main from hamas. but are israeli citizens aware of world opinion? does there seem to be any concern at all that the tide may be turning that way? it's shifting internationally. israel may be losing some support particularly after the scene that came out the u.n. school. >> you know. i don't think there is a lot of consideration among those israelis who support the ground invasion to the growing world opinion. they're solidly behind the leadership. what has happened in the past, however, is most of these attacattac attacks by israel on gaza, which have been called by rocket attacks from gaza into israel. all have stopped because outside intervention either strong
8:06 am
public opinion against the massive loss of civilian life in gaza with terrible pictures that come out each time. they feel there's a time limit on the operation. they don't feel there's a lot of attention to what is set out. israelis know that growing public pressure will bring an end to the operation. so the question really in israel is what can they achieve before that pressure grows? what israel keep saying they want to end the tunnel threat into israel. and end the rockets into israel. but today all attentions being paid on the ceasefire proposal that john kerry put on the table. israeli cabinet is meeting this afternoon. they have to decide whether they settle or not. and wait to see if hamas does. it seems to be the last game in town. kerry is returning this evening some time after the press conference. we'll see whether the two sides
8:07 am
accept the ceasefire. >> the ceasefire being proposed for humanitarian reasons by secretary kerry. from there let's go to the white house now at 2:00 p.m. eastern president obama and vice president joe biden will meet with three central american presidents to discuss the ongoing crisis at the border. they're asking the american government to act to resolve the humanitarian crisis. yesterday they melt with lawmakers on capitol hill. today's meeting the white house confirmed it's considering a pilot program that would give refugee stay us hundreds of children and young adults from honduras. they would have to apply in their home country. the white house said the program would be limited and start in honduras but could be expanded to other countries as well. joining me now is raoul rayas.
8:08 am
it's something that would not effect affect the current crisis ongoing. >> right. it would not affect the kids already here. what i think the administration is doing here is i think they are floating a trial balloon on the idea of establishing a place in these countries starting with honduras where children could apply for refugee status there. currently you're fleeing gang violence. that's not enough to qualify for refugee status. there's almost sure to be push back from conservatives. the estimated cost for two years are about $47 million. there's the fact you're admitted to the united states as a refugee. you are eligible, unlike most eligibles you are eligible for public assistance. those two areas could raise a lot of red flags. for example, among house republicans. >> yeah. i'm curious, if not fleeing gang violence whab is the criteria for refugee status? particularly from the central american countries or is the
8:09 am
criteria does it shift from one region to another? >> it can shift from one region to another. sometimes the u.s. will create something called temporary status for a particular country ba . you have to show some time of harm or persecution. which gang violence is but based on being a member of a group. based on, for example, an ethnicity or something like that. most of the kids wouldn't qualify for. there certainly the sound case to be made they will qualify for things like asylum, special immigrant or juvenile status available to kids victims of trafficking. >> according to the presidents of honduras, el salvador, and guatemala. the united states bears some responsibility for the crisis. let's take a look what was said by president hernandez. your country's enormous responsibility for this. the problem of trafficking generates violence, reduces
8:10 am
opportunities, generations s migration because there's the largest consumption of drugs here. how do you think that will affect the tenor of things at the white house this afternoon? >> i'm not sure what the tenor is going to be. but i would venture to guess it's going to be awkward. because i think this might come as a surprise to most americans in regard to this border crisis. most of the central american governments they think we're to blame for the crisis. because as they see it, the u.s. crack down on drug traffickers in colombia and mexico. the traffickers moved to their country. they blame us in that sense. and they also blame the united states because of our criminalization of drugs that fuels the drug trade as well as american guns and fire power go down there arm the traffickers. they see it in a sense that we should get our act together. the u.s. government, obviously, sees it they should get their act together and complicating
8:11 am
matters more the central american governments are touchy about the fact they feel they're often ignored by the united states and just consider the last time there was any meeting of thebelieve in008 afr hurrica mitch. there is a sense among central american that's only time they matter to the united states when there's a cry source a natural disaster. the rest of the time they will be overlooked. >> they won't be overlooked today at the white house at 2:00 p.m. hoar is an update on the flight. it has been found and confirmed no survivors. it was carrying 118 people when it lost contact with air traffic controllers. officials believe the crash was weather-related. it wassed third major plane disaster around the world in the last week. outrage growing over the nfl's runningback ray rice.

8:16 am
the nfl is facing strong criticism after a two game suspension against ray rice for a violent altercation involving his now wife. the incident happened during the off season in february and made headlines after tmz sports posted surveillance video of rice dragging his fiancè, out an elevate. he was allowed to enter a program for first time offenders that clear him if he meets certain conditions. the altercation was back in the spotlight yesterday as outrage spread over the punishment of rice for violating the league's personal conduct polts. the team's general manager and coach say they support the decision. >> what we said from the beginning that the circumstance would determine the consequences. there are consequences when you make a mistake like that. i stand behind ray.
8:17 am
he made a mistake. he has to pay a consequence. it's good for kids to understand that's how it works. that's how it should be. >> nbc sports network contributor joins me. welcome to you, jay. lots of anger over the seemingly paltry suspension just two games. i want to quote you, you have an explanation for this. on twitter you write ray race suspended for two games. good thing he didn't smoke we. you be on the nfl suspend the call for using a fertility drug. >> it purely is a case where the nfl just didn't seem to think through what the consequences of this kind of punishment would be. i don't want to speculate on their mentality. but on face value, it seems they
8:18 am
feel that smoking a joint, granted, josh smocaught several ti times, sen times. let's take a listen to the public statement about that from ray rice. >> i apologize to my fans, to the kids, to everyone who was effected, you know, by the situation that me and my wife were in. one thing i can say is, you know, sometimes in life you will fail, you know, but i won't call myself a failure. failure is not getting knocked down. it's not getting up. >> that was back in may. i think it's ironic he's using the phrase knocked down. let's listen to what he said after being notified of the two-game suspension. here is that. okay. i'm going to paraphrase what he
8:19 am
said. he says -- goodness. he talks about how app gettic he is and how disappointing he won't be with the teammates for the first two games. it's his fault. how do you suspect his teammates to react not only he's not going to play with them as he should for two games but the type of crime he's accused of committing. knocking down someone, physical abuse like that. >> yeah. that's a tough thing to stomach for anybody to think about a teammate, think about a friend, a colleague doing that to someone who is obviously much less physically able to defend themselves. that's the difficult part. but the issue, if you listen to the apology, you notice who he didn't apologize directly to. he didn't apologize to his wife. not that we need him to put on a performance. most apologies seem disenginous. the schism fact her side of the story was pushed under the rug.
8:20 am
she was later in the press conference made to apologize herself. when you make the victim apologize for getting beaten or getting hurt, you're into a dark and disturbing area. >> absolutely. we should note that commissioner roger goodell did fine him a half million dollars. in certainlies of the suspension policy. it should be revisited. because players who test positive for substance abuse and performance-enhancing drugs they get a four game suspension. you talk about those with multiple offenses, if there's a second or beyond suspension increases to eight games. do you think this is something that should call for a revisiting? >> without a doubt. without a doubt. this is an instance where the nfl had an opportunity to make a statement. there is no precedent for it. the commissioner had his discretion and fumbled, if you pardon the horrible pun in this situation, the opportunity to make a statement. the nfl makes statements about women's rights and issues, breast cancer awareness month in
8:21 am
october. they had an opportunity to do so now and they simply failed to do so. >> okay. and jay, thank you very much. nbc sports network. i appreciate it. ray rice's suspension is the focus of "newsnation" gut check. do you i had his two game suspension is too lenient? michigan man on trial says he thought intruders were breaking into his house and shot and killed an unarmed woman on his porch. >> it's not one person. it's two or more people. >> could have called 9-1-1. >> was the killing by theodore waiver a case of self-defense or murder? the and president obama facing criticism for the handling of crises erupting around the world while on a three-day fundraising trip to california. that's today ice first read. vo: this is the summer.

the first week of the trial for the man accused of murdering mcbride wrapped up. he fatly shot the 19-year-old unarmed black woman. police say last november she was disoriented, bloodied and banging on the front door after she crashed her car driving with a blood alcohol level nearly three times the legal limit. he shot her in the face through a locked door. in opening statements, the banking was shaking the house and he pulled the trigger out of fear. yesterday prosecutors showed dash cam video and audio where he can be heard saying he didn't know his shotgun was loaded. they laid out arguments for the jury. >> his actions that night were unnecessary.
8:26 am
unjustified. and unreasonable. because of what he did that night, a 19-year-old girl is dead, on a porch in deer born heights. >> 4:30 at night. his heart is coming out of his chest. the hair on his arm is up and he looks out the peephole and sees a shadowy figure. off the porch and around the side of the house and knows it's a human. at this moment, because the side he think it's not one person but two or more people. >> joining me now criminal and civil trial attorney eric guster. welcome. thank you. let's talk about the beginning here. it was a claim of self-defense and it turns to being an accident. what kind of problems does pose? >> it causes a huge problem. when the person is claiming self-defense, it's either self-defense or an accident. you can't have it both ways.
8:27 am
because theodore told the police, according to the testimony, he told the police i didn't know the gun was loaded. i didn't know that i -- that a round was in there. it's an accident. but it was zempbs. you can't make it be both ways. >> yeah. the circumstances, though, and this is what the defense attorney laid out clearly. 4:30 in the morning. someone is awakened and it's a 55-year-old man and he has the gun. typically who do you think at the outset is going to have a stronger case in something like this? disoriented as the defense attorney was saying or intentio >> i would think that theodore has the best argument. he was asleep in the recliner and woke up bay banging on the door. he thought it was more than one person. he told the police, according to the testimony, i didn't know it was loaded. it was an accident. but if he said i shot this person because i thought there
8:28 am
were two people outside my house. i thought someone was breaking in. that is a clear self-defense probably great self-defense case, actually. >> how about the fact he shot through the door? that means he did not open the door. i mean, there's proof either way to that? does it make a difference? >> i don't think that makes much a difference. at 4:0 in the morning you're not going to allow someone to get to you. if he thought someone was banging the door trying to come in the house. you may shoot through the door. that's a believable argument. however, when you say i didn't know it was loaded, i'm sorry it was an accident. that really negates your argument. >> who do you think has the stronger case at this point. >> i think it's a 50-50 case at this point. the defense will have a chance to put up their testimony. he may have a chance to explain why he said that. i'm sure they already knew that was his statement. they're going to try to clean it up. >> what do you think the prosecution has to do to pull it off? >> just keep discussing the fact
8:29 am
he changed his story. this man said it was an accident now he's claiming self-defense. you can't have it both ways. >> in other words trying to say accident versus intentional. >> right. they're going say it was an intentional killing. however, he lied his way to get. the first lie was an accident. the second lie was self-defense. that's what i believe the prosecution is going to hone on. thank you for weighing in. the shocking alleges of a quote sexualized culture that cost the ohio state marching band director his job. don't be scared.

8:35 am
i think the whoevy wanted to pa as early as next week. i think we're going pass something before we leave for the august recess. do you have a sense what the bill would look like? >> probably as much as the obama white house wants. the sticking point in why so many people remain pessimistic have to do with the 2008 law that congregational republicans want reversed. it's something that the white house said it's wanted in the past. congressional democrats don't want it at all. i think changing that law regarding central american children and the processing of them back to their home countries is in humane. that's the sticking point. it's hard to see how they're able to come together in the house of representatives. we're not talking about the senate and, of course, as you mentioned, that time is starting
8:36 am
to run out. >> it is. no let up for the summer. it's one of the serious issues confronting the white house. and the growing concern over the rising death toll in gaza. talk about the sunday talk shows and how you expect these two stories to play out. >> alex, you ended up mentioning there's going to be a heavy too kus an the violence in the middle east. what is going on in the eastern ukraine after the downing of malaysian airlines flight. again, i think one of the things we are talking about the dysfunction in congress. congress's inability to pass things seem easy to pass like the border humanitarian relief as well as reforming the va hospitals for veterans after that became a very big problem for everyone. everyone said they it needed to be addressed. that's hit a snag on capitol hill. the question is what does congress do with the time running out before it's august break and before everyone starts to kusing on midterm. >> thank you very much. we appreciate it. coming up next.

caseworker, did she, as required she said she trusted liz. go up stairs to see him? >> and she says, well, she liz was a good person, and she didn't see marcus. didn't do it. >> detective realized no one outside the carol's household has seen marcus since 12 days before the allegedly went missing in the park and becoming more and more convinced that liz and girlfriend amy are lying to protect him. to think they would do something terrible to a little boy they say they love? >> it is. but i've got three cases pending right now where father or live in boyfriend gets mad, strikes the kid once or twice. never meaning to kill the kid but a little baby can't take a punch like an adult. detectives decide it's time to press liz. they have her come in for paperwork and ask her to take a

pretty cool, huh? >> this is more than cool. >> oh, my gosh. >> okay. that was just a small preview of tamron's experience running wild with bear grylls. for two days she got to leave the big city and rough it in the utah wilderness. after flying over canyons on the side of a helicopter to rappelling a cliff, looks like an amazing experience. joining me is bear grylls and tamron who just got dismissed from jury duty. bear came and he's wearing a suit for the 1st time in ages just for you. >> i am like 19 blocks away. i am 19 blocks away.
8:51 am
i am not speeding and i'm not driving but i'm getting there to see bear in a suit after what he put me through for 48 hours in the wild. >> well, i feel -- tamron was great. when we picked her up, she was all beautiful and made up and looking immaculate. within two seconds we dragged her off in this aston martin and her hair was like ting. once i come into your domain, i will scrub up and wear my best suit and i deliver. but where is she? >> she's in the car. i saw tamron because we work next to each other. when she came in after working with you she looked like she's been through the wringer. how did you survive? >> we went to utah. tough, unforgiving terrain there. tamron, i think, it's fair to say she was a little daunted at the start. but she's just this ball of energy and great positivity and fun and that smile never left her face. there were a few times there was a look of terror as well but
8:52 am
that smile endured and she's going to be an inspiration to many. she won my heart and respect. >> tamron, what do you remember about this trip the most and what was terrifying the most? >> i remember bear's kindness. you know, we've been a fan. everyone on this show, huge fan. margaret, one of our segment producers said you must do this the minute i got the call. he's such a great guy. great husband, a great father. and his team admires him so much. much like "news nation" admires me -- ha, ha, i kid -- but bear is an inspiration and he's got a great story. when he says trust me, you do. and that was a part of our journey together. there are not a lot of people who could convince me to strap in a harness and try to rappel. i've never experienced anything like that. i told bear, i went to camp once. it was sunday school church camp and i pretended to be sick so my dad could come and rescue me. my dad rescued me and bear has rescued me and that's it. >> we can see the terror or at
8:53 am
least the challenge in your face in these videos. but you are smiling. when you take on someone like this who is inexperienced, doesn't that up the ante for you and concerns about what you are doing? >> yeah, it does is the truth. normally when i'm on my own it all happens subconsciously and fast and i don't have to double check notes. all of a sudden you have tamron or zac efron or someone on the end of the ropes. you get to know these hollywood stars we know and love in a very real way. as tamron said, you can't hide. you're uncovered. you are as you are. people love to see these people as they are and their stories are always amazing. it's wrapped around great adventure. we tend to not plan it too much. i take a rope. we get dropped off somewhere and get picked up 15 miles away. and along the way it's a great boy zone or girls adventure. >> she was the only woman in
8:54 am
this grape. >> she shown. she showed them. >> how many people do you think are out there like me that would love to do what you do but think, oh, come on, and yet tamron goes and does it. >> i think part of -- >> do people live vicariously? >> i think part of these stars' motivation is they don't need the fame or the money or whatever. they really want to challenge, push themselves and challenge themselves and achieve something that they are genuinely proud of. and at the end of the trip, yeah they are all beat and exhausted. i'm the same. but there's a real sense of pride and this is real and no stunt men. no second takes. i think also they like the fact it is so fluid. there is no rehearsing anything. we just go and do it. and it's fun to see those people as i said, as they are. >> tamron at the end of this, did you want to hug him and say thank you or slap him and say, how could you do this to me? >> i wanted to hug him at the end. i cannot lie. in the middle --
8:55 am
at the end it was exhilarating and gave me an opportunity. we live in new york and we're surrounded by the concrete jungle, a different kind of wild. at one point, we were at the top of this -- i guess it's a mountain right there because i don't know the mountain and it's stunningly beautiful. the colors, the texture, and you have, for me anyway it was almost a spiritual moment. not a religious moment but a spiritual moment. you look out at the beauty of this country and you're able to soak it in. no cell phones. no one calling. and it was divine for me. >> i think that's a common thing from all the guys. i remember channing tatum saying you get so wrapped up in this work. the time and chance to get out and reconnect and he's a country boy at heart who is brought up like that. he kind of lost it a little bit in the business of fame and all of that. for them to reconnect to who
8:56 am
they really are and to get that perspective on their life and family and a reminder of what the real values that they import to them. tom arnold said that. i want to be able to show my kid i can do some of this stuff. >> you did an amazing job. my hat is off to you, tamron. you go, girl. and we're going to have him stick around. >> it's because of bear. and bear, because i'm now 15 blocks away, i need you to take a picture behind the set. >> we'll make him stick around for five minutes or so so you can get here. thanks for calling in. i'm sorry you missed this segment. >> thank you, bear. i adore you. you are amazing. >> i hope you enjoy the show when you see it. >> it's "running wild" this monday at 8:00, 7:00 central on your local nbc station. that does it for this edition of "news nation." i'm alex witt.
