protests over the bombing of a u.n. school that had been sheltering gaza families. >> that's a responsibility thing to kill the children, the old women and what? >> that u.n. attack not only killed at least 16 people, it also underlined just how much of the brunt of this war has been bourn by gaza's civilian population. while 37 israelis, mostly soldiers, have died to date, more than 800 palestinians are dead. and the u.n. reports today that 150,000 people are living in shelters. that's a 50% increase from earlier this week and includes more than 8% of gaza's population. israel and its defenders argue that hamas uses civilian areas as camouflage and its missiles and tunnel warfare intentionally target israeli civilians. a senior correspondent with global post joins me now from the phone in jerusalem. can you give us a sense of what's happening on the ground there now? >> yeah, hi.

thanks, joy. well, actually, surprisingly the demonstrations which characterize the last, i would say, bit more than 24 hours, violent demonstrations in which i think eight palestinians lost their lives in clashes with the israeli military authorities seemed to have died down. jerusalem was quiet today. there was a big police presence, but it was quiet. and the west bank saw some protests earlier today, but a they died down as the evening came. what you mentioned is really breaking news. the fact israel's security cabinet rejected john kerry's proposal broke, i think, in the last five minutes. apparently -- and i want to be cautious here. apparently the cabinet felt that this proposal reflected the demands of hamas, the extremist

faction that rules gaza, more than it reflects the israeli position or demands. but i'm really speculating a little bit because this has just come through. the oh thing important to note is that as far as i know, hamas never had a reaction themselves, and there was talk earlier today about the israeli cabinet basically waiting to decide until they had a sense about if hamas was going to say northern. >> and one of the elements of that proposal was that israel would essentially -- it would be a cease-fire without a complete cease-fire. you'd still have the israeli military in gaza still looking for these tunnels. what is your sense of the israeli -- kind of the temperature of the israeli public right now? is there still full-throated support for the operation in gaza, or have some of the deaths and the bombing of u.n. facilities given pause at least in terms of the population if not the leadership? >> well, your question is, you

know, the $24 million question, right. i have to share with you some other breaking news that also came through, i think, in the last ten minutes. and it is that israel has determined one of its soldiers who was killed today died as a result of a rocket that was shot from a u.n. facility. that's just come through. i'm not even sure how much of the public is aware of it. i think the answer to your question is complicated. i think the israeli public has been pretty divided for quite a long time. i think that was seen in the last elections. i think that's been seen recently. but of course the barrage of missiles that has intensified during this conflict but that existed before has kind of brought people towards a feeling that something had to be done against the missiles that were constantly being launched at israel from gaza. then it might sound like i'm contradicting myself, but contradictory realities are the

truth here today. on the other side, the terrible loss of life in gaza is absolutely having a significant effect. so i think both those lines are there. >> and talk a little bit about that protest. because we did see what i'm told are the largest protests that you've seen in east jerusalem and in the west bank. and this is a holy period for muslims. talk a little bit about what happened over the last 24 hours, if you could. >> yeah, i'll try. yesterday was a night that's very important, one of the most important nights during the month of ramadan. it's a holy ceremony. this coming monday is the last day of ramadan. it's one of the most important days, if not the most important day in the annual muslim calendar. that said, i can't really tell you that i feel ramadan has had an effect. i do have the feeling that the

rioting and demonstrations yesterday, which was about 10,000 people, most of them at the cross point which is the check point between ramallah and jerusalem. i have the feeling those reactions were very strong and really reflected the carnage. the 17 people who were killed in the u.n.-run school in a gaza neighborhood. i think that's been extremely shocking. >> right. >> and my best estimation is that the rioting and demonstrations were a reaction to that. a lot of people -- and i think many people even irresponsibly were calling what happened yesterday a surge. i don't think reality actually reflects that. but it's true that the rioting was very severe. it's true that people have lost their lives. and i think that the news you just delivered about the rejection of the cease-fire may

have an effect that is very difficult to gauge over the weekend. >> indeed. all right. noga, please be safe and thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you very much. >> all right. joining me now is the executive director of the jerusalem fund and palestine center. if you could react to some of the news that we're hearing. first off, that it appears the israeli government has rejected the cease-fire offer put on the table by secretary kerry. your response? >> i think it's kind of surprising to hear this news given the nature of the terms that had been reported and how much they had favored the israelis. obviously, you know, secretary kerry is no impartial broker here. he's obviously very much pro-israel. he's stated very clearly israel has the united states' support in what it's doing in gaza. and the reported terms, as you noted, would have the israelis

staying inside the gaza strip before there's even any conversation about lifting the siege that is imposing this collective punishment on 1.8 million palestinians inside the gaza strip. so if this news is, in fact, correct and if i understand it has been confirmed now that there's been a rejection from the israeli side about john kerry's cease-fire plan, it's a tremendous slap in the face, i think, to the secretary of state, who spent now several days in the region trying to broker a cease-fire that ultimately was along terms that were very favorable to israel and unfavorable to the palestinians. >> what about the other thing we just heard from noga? the reports that israel, which appears to really have seen a flash point with the bombing, a lot of anger from u.n. members who really have been tweeting about it, et cetera, and calling it a potential war crime. now you have israel alleging -- and we have not confirmed this,

i should stress that, that one of their soldiers who was killed was killed by a rocket fired from near a u.n. facility. how do you react to that? >> you know, yesterday in response to the artillery shell, or as we understand it to be, an israeli shell that landed in the school and killed well over a dozen palestinians and injured many more. the israelis said they returned fire to fire being launched from that area, but that they could not confirm or deny that it was, in fact, their shell. i think it's remarkable that they have a better understanding of where fire is coming from a foreign source than their own fire that is being shot into targets into the gaza strip. i think it's always important to consider the source. obviously, you know, the israelis are going to say that this was not intentional, but we see the reality on the ground. the reality on the ground is there's well over 800 palestinians that have been killed. the majority of them civilians. about 200 children have been

killed in multiple massacres of entire families in their homes. children killed playing soccer on the beach. at some point the excuses really run out. i think we've reached that point quite some time ago. >> do you think the shelling of that school, the u.n. school, the pictures of it so horrific. you see children and families who had been sheltering there. it is not the first u.n. hospital attacked. u.n. people saying they did inform the idf of its civilian status. do you think that shelling of that school changed the nature and the tenor of this conflict? >> you know, i think a lot of the change that we've seen happened this past weekend with the ground invasion and of course the horrific bombardment of a civilian neighborhood in eastern gaza, which brought the death toll up very significantly from what was around 200 or 300 at that point to 500 in a couple

of days. i think the world has very rightfully been outraged at what they're seeing in the gaza strip and what the israelis have been able to do there with this tremendous fire power against, you know, at most militants with very rudimentary capabilities. and so there is no -- you know, there's no sense of proportion here to what's going on. there's no sense of strategy to what's going on. we're really witnessing massacres that are not going to serve anybody's interests and certainly palestinians are paying the highest price. >> if you could take a step back and look at the bigger picture, you mention what had you said was a slap in the face to u.s. secretary of state kerry, who's trying to broker the cease-fire. the other party that's attempting to get in between the palestinians and israelis are the egyptians. how much credibility at this point does egypt have with hamas, with the larger palestinian public given the fact that they themselves are opponents of hamas because of its relationship to the muslim

brotherhood, which as we all know was declared illegal in egypt. >> well, this is a very important question. i think there's a few things to keep in mind. first, the egyptians are one of several regional players along with qatar and turkey that are engaged in this discussion now on cease-fire terms with hamas. but, you know, there's no escaping the geography and the gaza strip obviously abuts egypt and egypt is participating in this israeli-maintained siege on the gaza strip as well. but, you know, it's also true that even though the government of mohamed morsi that was the muslim brotherhood government in egypt in 2012 was involved in cease-fire negotiations then. there have been other deals brokered by egypt, including the prisoner exchange agreement in 2012 and a cease-fire agreement in june of 2008, which were not led by morsi's egypt but rather

a military regime in egypt and mubarak's regime in egypt respectfully, which were no friends of the muslim brotherhood or hamas either. so it really is about the terms of the agreement and whether or not they're going to provide any relief for the people on the ground there. i think, you know, it's less about the regional politics as it is about what can really create change for the people on the ground there. >> and last question, can you foresee given hamas' politics at play here as well, there are other groups in gaza. they aren't the only one. they're not even the only one potentially firing rockets. could you foresee hamas, the leaders of that organization, making a deal in which they essentially unilaterally desist and say, we'll just stop doing what is happening in order to save the lives of the civilians in gaza? could you foresee them making that deal and being the first to offer to do that? >> well, you're right that there's a lot of players on the ground involved right now in the belligerency. i think what that goes to show is that, you know, this is

really not just about one particular political faction or one particular militant group. it's really about an entire society that is reacting to this oppressive system. and in the past, hamas has shown the ability to restrain these other groups when there have been cease-fire terms that actually address these issues. so i think that is possible if the legitimate grievances on the ground are dealt with. >> all right. thank you so much for being here. >> thank you. >> all right. right now, president obama is meeting with central american leaders at the white house. after the break, we'll discuss some of the president's reported new plans to deal with the humanitarian crisis at the border. then in the wake of the eric garner death, there is a new push to have nypd officers wear video cameras. i'll talk with a city official who's leading the charge for the cop cams.

eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. and three, unlike warfarin there's no routine blood testing. [ male announcer ] don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. those three important reasons are why i'm shooting for something better. eliquis. [ male announcer ] ask your doctor today

we're still waiting to hear from secretary of state john kerry, who will talk about the apparently rejected cease-fire deal put on the table between israel and the palestinians, news we just broke earlier. we'll bring you kerry's comments as soon as they come in. first, you're looking at live pictures of the white house where right now president obama is meeting with leaders from hon du -- honduras, el salvador to address the humanitarian crisis. white house officials confirmed to nbc news the president is considering a pilot program that aims to assign refugee status first to children from honduras, then potentially to kids from all three countries. but the central american leaders blame the u.s. for the recent influx of men, women, and children saying they're fleeing drug violence essentially funded by americans who are the drug carte

cartels' biggest clients. . >> your country here in the united states is the largest consumer of drugs. and what happens with that is you manage to resolve the problem by separating the violence from the consumption of drugs. and for many public officials here, the problem is a matter of health. what is it for us in central america? it's a problem of life and death. >> life and death indeed. people in those countries have good reason to flee. honduras, elle se salvador and guatemala have the worst murder rates in the world. so the question is, what will today's border summit accomplish, and how much can the president deliver without congress' help? nbc white house correspondent kristen welker is live at the white house. so kristen, what do we know about this proposal? >> well, we know that president obama is considering that

proposal that will essentially grant refugee status to what is being characterized as a small number of kids. the white house won't say what a small number actually means, but here's the takeaway from that according to white house officials. the goal is to have those kids go through that process before they illegally cross the border and before they add to the influx of unaccompanied minors here. and as you point out, joy, the idea is if it works in honduras, it would be expanded to other countries. critics are coming forward and saying this could just compound the problem. one white house official says definitively that no decision has been made yet, but it is one of the proposals that president obama is considering. in terms of what the president can actually accomplish today in this meeting, it's not clear. i think it's going to be more about messaging. the president is going to urge the three central american leaders to attack the core root of the problem, the violence, the poverty, which you talked about. white house officials say they have been in consistent contact with leaders from central

america and officials there. they have seen some progress. for example, in honduras, 12 big migrant smugglers were arrested, were taken off the market. they say that's an indication that things are at least moving in the right direction. but the other issue here, joy, is one of messaging. there's a lot of miscommunication that's going on, and the white house is trying to get a campaign out to basically deal with that, to let people know that if you send your children across the border, the vast majority of them will not be allowed to stay here. they say that the campaign which was launched several weeks ago is starting to take effect. they want these central american leaders to essentially work with them to broad than campaign to do a better job of getting the message out. of course, republicans say that it's the president's policies that have been lax that have encouraged people to cross the border. white house officials dispute that, but they do acknowledge the fact that there has been a surge of unaccompanied minors that has sent the wrong message

to the folks who are living in central america who want to escape those horrible condition, the violence and the poverty. of course, the president also asking congress for $3.7 billion. and it's not looking very likely that's going to happen before they break for recess. joy? >> yeah, indeed. not looking good. thanks very much, kristen welker. >> absolutely. >> all right. now three things you need to know this friday. three americans, including a reporter for "the washington post," appear to have been detained in iran. miriam ibrahim met pope francis this morning. she and her family were able to leave sudan and fly to italy yesterday. they're expected to continue on to the u.s. in a few days. and l.a. clippers point guard chris paul says is in an interview with espn.com it's, quote, unacceptable if donald sterling still owns the team

martin fletcher and ayman mohyeldin join us. martin, i'll start with you. give us your read on this potential that the israeli cabinet has, in fact, rejected that attempted peace deal. >> reporter: well, that's what's been reported by the wire agency, quoting what they call a senior government source. presumably it's true, but we haven't been able to confirm it ourselves. they do include the information that israel, they say, is seeking modifications in the proposal. so it doesn't appear to be an outright rejection, no cease-fire, the war continues. they want changes in the proposal. and unfortunately, that's the way things go here. secretary of state john kerry presented his proposal. he actually presented it a couple days ago. israel's been discussing changes with him in the meantime. this doesn't mean that it's not yet acceptable to israel in its present form. it's not dead. israel wants changes. of course, everyone's waiting to hear what the hamas response will be. >> and martin, any idea sort of what tenor of changes there are?

we already did have this morning sort of the news come out about what was in that original proposal, including allowing the idf to continue to operate in gaza. do you have any reporting on what changes israel might be seeking? >> what israel wants is a -- is the ability to keep looking for those tunnels, even while there's a cease-fire. that would mean keeping the army in place. well, that would happen anyway because it's such an operation to get everybody out. to continue working to seek those tunnels. the proposal as it was first reported here through leaks was that kerry was proposing a one-week cease-fire beginning sunday. as soon as the cease-fire begins, talks would begin between israel and indirectly with hamas to work out all the different issues that the sides have. but israel was insisting they continue to look for those tunnels because they say it's going to take one o were to weeks to find and locate all those tunnels. obviously, i'm assuming that from hamas' point of view,

israel continuing to look for tunnels is another way of -- is another form of israel's operation in gaza. they'll say it should stop. so that is a major gap between the two. hamas, for their side, are insisting that they be guaranteed that the siege will be lifted on gaza. that's a siege imposed not only by israel by also by egypt. these are two -- these are the two key demands that both sides have. the specific modifications that israel wants to kerry's proposal, that i cannot say at this time, joy. >> ayman mohyeldin, the same question to you. how is the news being received as it's filtering out to where you are among gaza that this cease-fire has apparently failed, at least for now? >> well, to echo what martin was saying, there's no doubt -- particularly from some of the palestinian factions we've been able to speak to. they felt the cease-fire falls short in the u.s. peace plan falls short. there was no guarantees that

there was going to be a discussion about lifting the siege. they oppose wholeheartededly the notion of stopping all hostilities by israel and the palestinians while israeli troops remain on the ground inside gaza to continue any of the operations that they wanted to pursue including the destruction of tunnels and elsewhere. they say that would be a violation of any cease-fire. the only cease-fire -- week-long cease-fire they'd be willing to accept would require the israeli troops to withdraw depletely from the gaza strip. it would be at that point they'd be willing to enter a week-long discussion about a long-term mechanism. as it stands right now, the proposal as we understood it would require a cessation of hostilities but allowing israel to maintain a military presence inside the gaza strip. that was adamantly rejected by palestinian factions and also by a lot of the palestinians we've been speaking to in civil society and others who say at this point just allowing the

israelis to continue to have a presence in gaza would be a violation. the palestinians we've been speaking to that represent a cross section of political affiliations say they cannot accept this siege to continue one day longer. if there's no comprehensive solution, there's no basis for a long-term truce. >> all right. thank you both. and a reminder that secretary of state john kerry is expect told speak on the gaza conflict sometime today. we'll bring you live coverage on msnbc. we'll be right back.

sharpton. >> we feel based on the advice of the attorneys that there's more than enough federal jurisdiction here that the civil rights of eric garner were violated that led to his death. >> and we're going to hold on this story for just a moment. it appears as if secretary of state john kerry has taken the podium. we're expecting him to talk about the attempts that he had been making to broker a peace deal between israel and the palestinian faction hamas, which controls the gaza strip. kerry has been in long-term negotiations attempting to talk both with the egyptians, with the palestinian leadership, with the united nations leadership, attempting to broker a seven-day deal. that deal would have allowed the idf to continue in gaza in a limited way. we're going to keep monitoring this. we'll go to it if we see secretary kerry come to the podium. right now, back to the story we

were just covering. that is, of course, the death of eric garner. that death is still pending a final autopsy. the coroner will not release that autopsy until an internal nypd investigation is complete. a case has also been opened by the staten island district attorney. so far one officer has been stripped of his gun and badge. another has been placed on desk duty but had it not been for this video you're seeing shot by garner's 22-year-old friend, it's very likely we wouldn't even know about this case. public advocate told supporters at a rally this week, quote, all street encounters should be videoed. as the same observer article points out, the police precinct where the incident took place was the 120th and was actually targeted for a pilot program suggested by a federal judge in the stop and frisk ruling that calls for cameras to be worn by police. joining me now is new york city's public advocate.

thanks for joining me. thank you for rolling with us with all of this breaking news that's happening. so why do you believe that police in new york as some police officers do around the country, why should they have to wear lapel cameras? >> i believe going forward that in order to prevent this type of incident from happening again, it's really critically important that police officers whenever there's a street encounter that they be videotapes. other jurisdictions around this country have body cameras. a lot of highway patrols outside of new york state have highway cameras. it's a way to, one, protect police officers against alleged police misconduct or allegations of abuse as well as those individual suspects to ensure that their rights are protected as well. >> i should mention that we did reach out to the nypd and the police union for comments. we have not heard back. let's go to the situation at hand. we can't get into deliberating the case of eric garner, but this sense of force being applied excessively by police. of course, it's not strictly a new york phenomenon.

but between 2009 and 2013, according to the civilian complaint review board, the nypd faced 11,334, quote, force allegations. and less than 2% of them were substantia substantiated, which people either just made it up or nothing gets done about it. 46% of officers exonerated in those cases. does new york have a problem seeing these sorts of allegations through to the end? >> so obviously the tape really goes to a broad injustice that needs to be corrected in new york city. as you indicated from 2003 to 2009, over 1,000 civilian complaint review board cases have been filed. only 9 were substantiated. going forward with a body camera that would obviously provide individuals with the evidence to go forward to substantiate their case. in addition to that, it's important as we're working with the city council, the city council will be holding hearings

with respect to ccrb complaints as well as the inspector general. we have asked the inspector general to conduct an investigation as well. >> all right. i want you to hold on just for a second. we're going to go back to where it appears secretary kerry has now taken the podium. let's listen in. >> let me start. i want to thank egypt for their very warm welcome here. most importantly, for their continued efforts to try to find ways to achieve a cease-fire agreement in gaza and beyond that to be able to resolve

critical issues underlying this conflict. i thank them for their help today. also i want to thank secretary general ban ki-moon who has traveled and worked tirelessly in these past days throughout the international community to try to bring people together -- >> okay. we are having some audio problems listening in to secretary of state john kerry. we're going to try to clean that up and we'll brief you on what he's saying. this is, of course, in regard to the attempt to broker a peace deal between israel and the palestinian authorities. let's go back to letisha james who is really rolling. the punches today. let's talk just a little bit about the advocatings you have potentially on your side. wednesday on this program we had nicole paultre belle.

this is what she had to say about the very issue you're here to discuss, camera phones. >> camera phones these days are your power, and what happened to sean and the tragedy with my family and mrs. diallo, we didn't have that. so many people were forced to argue back and forth of what was right or what could have happened. >> you know, absent that video that was taken by a bystander, is there -- people don't feel necessarily that there's much hope in actually bringing a prosecution, at least a conviction, against an officer in cases can like these. do you think cameras are the difference maker? >> so cameras clearly are the difference. obviously we need evidence to substantiate crrb complaints as well as individual criminal charges against individuals who violate the rights of individuals. in addition to that, it's really important that we safeguard the rights of both the police officer as well as the suspect. more important than that, the fact is that there are thousands and thousands of claims filed

against the city of new york totaling last year $152 million. taxpayers should stand up and support this initiative. this initiative, if we do a pilot program to outfit about 5,000 police officers, would only cost around $5 million. $5 million compared to $152 million that we are paying out in t.o.r.t. claims in regards to individual who have filed complaints against officers for alleged misconduct. i think it would go a long way, one, in reducing the amount of money that we spend for those claims as well as safeguard the rights of all individuals on both sides of the aisle. >> and this is something the mayor can do. >> and in 2013 the current police commissioner indicated his support for body cams. and nypd is already pursuing some technology can google. so technology and surveillance is part of our society, part of our life. i think it's something we really should embrace going forward. >> all right. thank you so much. >> thank you.

all right. let's listen to secretary of state john kerry talking about the attempt to make a deal between the palestinians and israeli. >> -- and representatives of interested states and state of israel. in order to begin to try to negotiate the way forward. now, why are we not announcing that has been found yet tonight? for a simple reason. we still have some terminology

in the context of the framework to work through. but we are confident we have a fundamental framework that can and will ultimately work. and what we need to do is continue to work for that. and that's exactly what we're going to do. we believe that seven days will give all the parties the opportunity to step back from the violence and focus on the underlying causes, perhaps takes some steps that could build some confidence and begin to change the choices for all. we don't yet have that final framework. but i will tell you this. none of us here are stopping. we are going to continue the conversations, and right now before i came in here tonight, i had conversations with people on both sides of this conflict. just spoke to prime minister netanyahu who made it clear he wants to try to find this way forward. i think the secretary general, who has graciously called for a

12-hour cease-fire, will speak in a moment about that possibility and where we will go. and prime minister netanyahu has indicated his willingness to do that as a good-faith down payment and to move forward. i'm grateful to secretary general for his leadership in that regard. but in the end, the only way this issue is going to be resolved, this conflict, is for the parties to be able to come together and work through it as people have in conflicts throughout history. and it's our hope, and we intend to do everything possible. tomorrow i will be in paris where i will meet with some of our counterparts, my counterparts, and where i will also meet with other players who are important to this discussion in an effort to be able to try to see if we can narrow the gap. and prime minister netanyahu is committed to try to help do that over the course of the next day.

so we begin with at least the hope of a down payment on a cease-fire with the possibility of extension, a real possibility. and hopefully if we can make some progress, the people in this region who deserve peace can find at least one step towards that elusive goal. thank you. >> thank you. secretary general? >> thank you, foreign ministers, secretary of state of the united states, john kerry. ladies and gentlemen, good evening. let me begin by commenting all the leaders here today. i'd like to particularly thank president sisi of egypt and the foreign minister as the host of

this initiative to have --. >> all right. let us go to the senior correspondent with global post who's joining me now on the phone from jerusalem. so we just heard secretary of state john kerry and then ban ki-moon speaking about this deal, which now appears to be down to a 12-hour potential cease-fire, which john kerry, the secretary of state, called a, quote, good-faith down payment on a larger deal or a larger cease-fire. he said the only way to really resolve this conflict is for the parties to come together as has been done in times past. he noted he will travel to paris tomorrow to continue these meetsings. your reaction? >> well, i think that there is no person more committed to peace in the middle east than john kerry. it was interesting to hear him because all of us in the world of journalism kind of thought

that if there was an agreement by tonight then the whole deal was off. listening to john kerry, you realize he may regret he scheduled a press conference for tonight, but he's planning on continuing work. he does not seem to have given up at all. in fact, he made it very clear that he still hopes to achieve certainly the first week-long truce of the original cease-fire plan he proposed. he also seemed to attempt to down play the difference. it's a difference of terminology. that brings up for me one issue, which is i wonder if prime minister netanyahu, whose government has just rejectsed this plan formally in a vote, is not facing very, very significant pressure from his right-wing flank. and i wonder if there isn't some behind-the-scenes machinations going on so that netanyahu will

be able eventually to accept this plan but also to be able to tell his right wingers, you see, initially i rejected it, i held my position steadfastly. i'm speculating here, but i think it was possible to hear that maybe between the lines. >> and you make a very good point because it's one thing for prime minister netanyahu to agree or not agree to a deal, but within his cabinet, you have members of what's called the home party, other religious and far-right parties who are not really necessarily interested in stopping the military part of the operation. >> 100% true. and, in fact, four ministers who are among the most right wing, and that includes the foreign minister. that's a very senior position. all of them announced even before today's cabinet meeting they were going to vote against the proposal. that's quite unusual for a security cabinet meeting to make that kind of announcement. >> all right. noga, thank you very much.

you just saw secretary kerry responding to the israelis saying thanks, but no thanks to the latest cease-fire offer. hours later, an air canada plane was forced to rocket the tel aviv airport. nfl training camp has kicked off with what some say is a not-rough-enough play by the league, suspending baltimore ravens running back ray rice for just two games after a domestic violence incident involving his wife. and the president could be impeached. that's the admission from a top white house adviser this afternoon as republicans move forward with their threat. trust me, today's top story will not help tone down that rhetoric.

good afternoon at 3:00 in new york. i'm toure. right now president obama is wrapping up a meeting with central american leaders. the presidents of guatemala, honduras, and el salvador, three countries at the center of the b border crisis. more than 57,000 unaccompanied minors have crossed the border so far this year, a 117% increase over last year. the president is offering to help make things safer if these kids do have to go home and hoping thousands more don't decide to make the same treacherous trip to america. here's what the republicans are offering according to two-term south carolina republican mulvaney. conferen they discussed a larger national guard presence on the board and a decrease in the amount of time it takes for processing and the idea that the last in will be the first processed. here's another t
