its editorial not from this monday, but recent days, has a phrase which it says has become ubiquitous in terms of looking at ferguson. that phrase is from martin and itking, no less, says, "i think we have got to see that a riot is the language of the unheard." martin luther king saying that in 1966 when race riots swept across the united states. yes, we need investments in the community. we need to listen to the unheard, and we will listen. >> now to africa, where the ebola crisis is becoming of greater and greater concern. >> it is. let's go straight away to this piece, which is not remarkable for the paper in itself but for the headline. it is just staggering. here, there is no ebola in liberia. looters in the capital of monrovia chanted this as they stole infected items from a clinic. young men armed with clubs broke into the clinic. they actually stole items infected with blood, excrement, vomit, clearly infected. unbelievable. a staggering degree of ignorance. say president ellen johnson sirleaf wants to raise money because her economy is not going well. a very frightening story

business but the oil rich kurdistan has long sought to break away from iraq it has now moved to sell crude independently from bogged down arguing that the central government doesn't give the region its fair share of oil revenue and move the onslaught of the islamic state in the political turmoil in baghdad many kurds see an opportunity to finally carve out a homeland by exclusively supporting the kurdish region washington may fuel their cause but the kurdish region is functional the way we would like to see it and it is tolerant of other sects and other religion in a way that you would like to see elsewhere so we do think that it's important to make sure that that space is protected the obama administration likes the way kurdistan functions but doesn't like the way iraq as a whole functions the obama administration denies that it gave up on the central government in baghdad moving to directly part. u.s. interests with humanitarian situation so dire and the threat posed by the islamic state so imminent america's increased involvement may not have much opposition now even if the eventu

the blockade which has effectively decimated the economy here has made so many people unemployed and it's made in the best of times. while people want to see an end to the violence they're also calling for an end to the siege. >> thanks for that. senior hamas leader has taken part and the group will back any palestinian bit to join the international criminal court. hamas has signed a pave support requested by the palestinian president. israel and hamas could be investigated by the court for war crimes we're live now in the studio. earlearlier on you said you were heading to cairo: >> i'm just going to cairo because -- >> do you support. mahmood abbas--excuse me jumping in here--he wants to resume these talks? >> machoomahmood abbas, he wants to resume the talksish and we asked him--we went to cairo yesterday, that we want to, but without answe an negotiation we now wait for the answer. if they didn't answer the question what kind of talk we can prepare what is the question you need answered, and i'm intrigued to know what you'll be talking about that will be different this time. the

the president has since acknowledged that that has happened. so this is a second time on record that brennan has been basically caught in a lie. what might the potential consequences be for this? >> it's an excellent point. here is when i was watching his testimony before he was being nominated and he promised to be truthful, promised to smooth relations which are always tense between the senate and the cia and yet, here we go, as you mentioned, the second time he has either lied, misled or unknowingly in this case -- we don't know yet -- unknowingly, perhaps his staffers did it and he didn't know misled but had a culture of this kind of thing going on at the cia and james clapper made the statement about americans and the nsa. so, you know, there is a history here, and in terms of the consequences, you know, we now have at least three senators, two democrats, one republican, rand paul who you remember famously about john brennan, his nomination. >> this could cross party lines? >> strange bed fellows in this case. you seep them calling for his

the president of iraq has given his job to another shiite politician, and al-maliki has accused the presidentf a coup, saying it is a serious violation of the constitution. >> a major defeat for nouri al-maliki as a rising shiite takes the premiership. after months of political wrangling, the country's president called on the deputies speaker of congress to form a new parliament. that man was elected by the iraqi national alliance, a coalition that al-maliki is also a part of. >> as the first coalition meeting, we elected al-maliki and he was the only candidate. >> the choice is likely to be resisted by the outgoing prime minister. early on sunday, al-maliki declared he would file a legal complaint against the president. >> i am warned before the gravity of breaching the constitution, which the people of iraq have voted for. i have also warned against ignoring the results of the election. >> the announcement comes just hours after the prime minister stepped up his struggle to keep his job. security troops were deployed across the street from the capitol. they have denied it. >> everything is

louis city has that. i think the difficulty of adequately staffing, training, monitoring the actions of 53 different police departments, shows this kind of fragmentation. >> do you think there are more police out there perhaps moving to different stations who perhaps should not be on the force at the moment because of bad behavior? you, thelet me tell officer who was pointing the gun that you reported on was actually not a artisan police officer. he came from a community called sane and. -- he was not a ferguson police officer, he came from st. anne,. it was handled well by ron johnson in the missouri highway patrol. >> there has also been criticism of president obama. some comes out strongly, people may say it's because he's black. if he does not, some people say he is not living up to expectations. i do you think he has handled the situation? >> comparing his action with attorney general holder is quite different. they are quite different personalities. i think president obama is trying to be the presid

if that dent show you where the situation has gone, i'm not sure what has. in the meantime peaceful protesters here this afternoon. a lot less busy than it was yesterday afternoon. a grand jury expected to go through starting tomorrow, it will be 12 people. we're told it could take up a to few weeks to pick those folks who will go through all the evidence from what the police have gathered, from what eyewitnesses have gathered and social media and design whether or not that police officer should be charged with a crime. michael? >> michael: robert, as you said, relatively quiet right now in ferguson compared to the last several days. do you get the sense--i believe we have technical difficulties with robert ray in ferguson. we'll go back to him. amid the controversy in ferguson there was another officer-involved shooting four miles away in st. louis. the police chief said that an officer shot and killed a 23-year-old man who brandished a knife at him. it is not connected to the ferguson case. no one was injured. the crowds have since dispersed. >>> schools w
