still some heavier showers east of king city.you may see some brief shower there is around mount hamilton and also east of morgan hill over the next two to three hours. so the weather pretty interesting here with passing showers, but really nothing to measure in the rain gauges. just enough to wet the ground daily city up to mill valley, but that alone is more than the zero we typically see in july. kirkwood over to the sierra, more than an inch of rain. almost two inches of rain near groveland. so that's the reason for the flash flood warnings around yosemite. one more round of moisture coming in from the north bay. as you saw on the radar trend, there is the best bet for accumulating rainfall in sonoma and napa county going into tomorrow. and possibly thundershowers in northern lake county heading into the afternoon. so rainfall accumulations from here. we've had just enough to wet the ground and a few spots in between now and about noon tomorrow. it looks like we'll pick up just a little bit more in the combination of drizzle

east of the middle east of 2006 and that's what i see. iraq and syria are in civil war. libya is in civil war. yemen is on the brink of civil war, probably is in civil war by most academic explanations. ar a arab spring is dead. egypt has returned to a dictatorship, at least temporarily. any number of problems are spreading across the region. deeply troubled not to mention the point tom made about having yet, another israeli/palestinian war in gaza. this is not a good situation. this is not a good region. and i don't think think that everything the obama administration argued was wrong. i think the united statess that certainly made its share of mistakes in the middle east. and not overlive on the george w. bush administration. all though they certainly have had more than their fair share of those mistakes. but certainly it's the case that the united states has made mistakes in the region that we've often contributed to the problems but nevertheless, the weight of evidence on the whole, is that the united states has helped problems in the

bush's approach to the middle east either. i never thought that in 2014 i would be looking at a middle east that could somehow be worse than the middle east of 2006, the nadir of george w. bush's approach. yet that's what i see. iraq and syria are in civil war. yemen is on the brink of civil war. probably is in civil war. lebanon has experienced all kinds of problem. the arab spring is dead. egypt has returned to a dictatorship, at least temporarily. any number of other problems are spreading all across the region. it is a deeply troubled region, not to mention the point that tom just made about having yet another israeli/palestinian war in gaza. this is not a good situation. this is not a good region. and while i don't think that everything that the obama administration argued was wrong, i do think that the united states has certainly made its share of mistakes in the middle east, and not only under the george w. bush administration, although they certainly had more than their fair share of those mistakes. but it certainly is

the experts on the middle east, the first experts on middle east were all missionaries. and the first ambassadors, the first people who worked in the cia, who established our expertise, they were all either the descendents of missionaries or people trained by missionaries. and i think the missionary world view had an enormous influence on what we thought we were doing in the middle east. i'm not the first one to point this out, but i don't know of anybody else who has poened in on the kind of specific inclinations that the missionaries had. now, if i can take you back a little bit to the 30s and 40s, john foster dulles, secretary of state in the eisenhower administration, he first became prominent on the international diplomatic stage by his work in the churches. he worked in the federal council of churches, in the late 30s, early 40s after the war broke out in europe, to convince americans to build a better league of nations. john foster dulles was the single most pernt in the establishment of the united nations. which had a strong religious dimension to it. could talk

i think this is very true in the middle east.i started asking myself, where did the picture that the americans had admitted century of the middle east come from? this inquiry led me to a really surprising lace. when you think about it it is not that surprising. it came from religion. the experts on the middle east were all missionaries. the first ambassadors, the first people who worked in the cia who established our expertise, they were all either the descendents of missionaries are people who are trained by missionaries. -- or people who are trained by missionaries. i think the missionary worldview had an enormous influence on what we thought we were doing in the middle east. i'm not the first one to point this out, but i don't know of anybody else who has honed in on the kind of specific inclinations that the missionaries had. when you go back a little bit to the 1930's and 1940's, john foster dulles in the eisenhower administration first became prominent on the international/diplomatic stage by his work in the churches. he wo

this is from the israeli tram system that runs through east jerusalem.t jerusalem, captured by israel in the 1967 war, of course, later annex in a move that is not recognized internationally. often tensions do run high here. this, though, is an unusual cycle of violence, if this proves to be a revenge attack that has taken place. first of all, to have the killing of those three israeli teenagers kidnapped and killed, israel says, and then to have the killing of a young palestinian, this is a sectarian conflict that is ongoing. but this type of violence is a bit more unusual. >> i hope it is safe for you to -- can you tell us anything more about what weapons people have, it is quite alarming to talk to you from here, listening to what is going on there. >> well, you can see some people are still just walking about the street going about their normal business. there are actually quite often clashes with locals and police in east jerusalem. but this is something a bit different. people are very worried too about what might happen when the funeral for this y

as expected we're seeing some of that rain especially south and east of the city. as we go in closer you can get a better view of this. it's left over at the moment. this cell looking in fortescue. millville getting a really good soaking right along route 49 headed towards route 55 you're getting really wet at this point. in hammonton along the a.c. expressway, showers up through medford lakes. no lightning with this at this point but watching that heavy rain as this front slowly crosses. let's head outside and show you what it looks like right now. we've got sky 6 looking live, lots of clouds above the peco building currently and no rain in philadelphia at the moment. most of this is south and east of the city. 74 right now in philadelphia. that dewpoint 69. it's still oppressively humid. the winds are light but they've switched towards the west and the pressure is still falling. i want to show you the dewpoints through the area. we're still in the 70's in dover, in millville and atlantic city. that just means so much moisture in the air it's still oppressively hu
