joining us peter bergen and mark kimmitt, the chief military spokesman during the iraq invasion. also a former pentagon and state department official. so the president authorizes surveillance, reconnaissance, spy flights. isn't it only a matter of time before they collect enough information to actually start launching air strikes against some isis targets not only in iraq but in syria? >> well, before you do the attack, you have to have the intelligence. >> you wouldn't do reconnaissance unless you were planning on attacking. >> you do the reconnaissance and the surveillance in case you wanted to attack. >> it's not a done deal he's going to order air strikes. >> he isn't going to order the strikes until he's done reconnaissance. >> it makes sense if to me if he's doing reconnaissance, because that's a major step, he's going to at least launch some air strikes against targets in syria. that's where the command and control center of isis is in syria, not iraq. >> there's legal problems with launching air strikes willy-nilly. there's no u.n. resolution ornate toe operation that cov

and general mark kimmitt, i appreciate it. >>> coming up next, we have video i want to get to you talking about the air strikes, we have video of a u.s. air strike in iraq. we are also getting that turned around. we will have that for you after the break. also ahead, we talk about these men, women and children and these iraqis fleeing for their lives some 200,000 of them being told by isis when isis storms their village, city or town, convert to islam or die, and so for days and weeks, humanitarian workers at unicef have been trying to sound the alarm, get the international community to pay attention to this crisis on the ground. and unicef representative for iraq has been in the region. he will join me on what he has seen and experienced himself next. when folks think about what they get from alaska, they think salmon and energy. but the energy bp produces up here creates something else as well: jobs all over america. engineering and innovation jobs. advanced safety systems & technology. shipping and manufacturing. across the united states, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. w
