the rising terror threat in mali. what should america do? let's go "outfront." >>> good evening, everyone. "outfront" tonight, facebook not making many friends this evening because just a few hours ago, facebook came out with its first earnings report as a big public company. and it did do about what people thought. revenue was up 32% from a year ago. that may sound good but the problem is facebook's shares are taking a big hit. you remember, this is a company that was second biggest stock market launch ever. today facebook shares closed at 26 a share. you see that black diamond-looking ski slope. it's falling even after the market closed tonight. down about 30% from where it went public. this obviously has hurt a lot of people who struggled to try to get shares of this ipo. why are people so nervous? there's one word and it's money. during tonight's conference call with investors, mark zuckerberg, the ceo of facebook, made it clear that making money from advertising is a top priority. >> we know that social ads perfo

clinton's in israel fear mongering about iranian missiles is still in full effect and what you libya mali and syria all have in common all they care of and robert farley are going to help us hash that out it will have all of that and more frayed and i concluded a dose of happy hour but first take a look with the mainstream media decided to miss. all right so it's another day of obsessive campaign coverage and the debate that's taking center stage right now for the mainstream media is about the is about bain capital and mitt romney and the obama campaign's attacks on mitt romney and bain capital over the outsourcing of jobs the battle over bain just won't go away some of the companies bain invested in send jobs overseas the has said that at the time when the obama campaign is accusing him of being part of a company that i was source jobs that he was not there we know he's had a swiss bank account we know he's exported jobs to china the attacks on mitt romney's business career at bain capital's begin to take a toll so now romney turns the tables and will attack president obama for quote cro

involvement in mali, but three u.s.mmandos were killed in a mysterious car crash in mali's capital this spring and there are reports of a growing cia presence nearby. seth jones is out front tonight. good to see you. appreciate your taking the time. how substantial is al qaeda's foothold at this point? >> i would say al qaeda's foothold is substantial in the sense that it is using mali as a sanctuary. it's involved in training forces both in mali and others in the region, it provides explosive devices, training them in counterterrorism techniques. so it is arising concern and should be a rising concern for a range of european governments. >> we've been hearing so much about al qaeda being on the verge of strategic defeat and some of the successful killings in yemen. do you think this changes that argument? >> i think there's no question it changes the argument. what we've seen across aspects of north africa and then the horn is weakening government. exactly what's happened in it mali. al qaeda has tried to push into the

i was on the border regions of northern mali.ssed for myself how desperate the security situation is. how terrified people are of the radicals. islamic radicals have seized the northern half of mali after a rebellion and coup left the country rudderless. today, issuing this great warning. >> i'm very concerned about mali. obviously had a coup there. the government has collapsed. the current government is shaky. it's struggling with international recognition. north of the niger river in mali is basically completely ungoverned space and aqim, the al qaeda affiliate in that region, has basically moved in and established a very troubling presence. >> we can tell you from being on the ground there that's true. in fact, that is true also for south of the niger river as well. sheen went on to say the defense department is weighing its options. "outfront" tonight a man who knows the security situation in mali. as well as anyone in the world. rudy atala is the defense department's former africa counterterrorism director. spent several yea

exactly what's happened in mali.governance vacuum and establish some areas of sanctuary that it's trying to expand using local allies, in the case of mali, organizations as a local group to establish broader sanctuary. >> so president obama has called for increased use of special respect forces as part of his strategy. david sangor in his book. there was a report of the three commandos found dead in, a car with three supposedly moroccan prostitutes. does that add up to you? >> u.s. special operations forces have been involved in training malian forces over the last decade and more. training them in search and seizure counter terrorist operations, intelligence surveillance and recognizance. so the idea that u.s. special operations and other units in an area that has an al qaeda foothold would be involved in training is certainly probable. >> there are u.s. special operations forces and commandos in there now? >> well, i would say the first and most important aspect in mali for both u.s. special operations and intellig

new york arm is not a state of mali's northern desert region have destroyed holy sites in the city of timbuktu earlier this week militants with ties to al qaida claimed control of the region following a violent shootout that left at least twenty people dead in the middle east expert as a kid who believes it's up to the people of mali to find a solution saying u.s. or nato intervention would only further destabilize the region. all of this of course is related to a war that was waged against libya last year doing twenty eleven which brought about the displacement of many of the two iraq forces who had been settled in libya for many many years they were well armed and of course with them entering the situation inside of northern mali it's further destabilizing polarize the situation and sap and north of the country and of course affected the capital up of mochel as well the nato forces led by the united states destroy the social fabric and national infrastructure and the national economy of libya libya was the most prosperous of the most stable state on the african continent as a result

or nato intervention in mali we don't think that would solve the problem it would further destabilize the situation in the country and throughout the region. while the after effects of libya's revolution and nato intervention are still being felt in the country at least forty seven people are dead and more than one hundred injured after three days of tribal clashes in the country south according to local sources the fighting is between two runs of by tribesman where the latter are reportedly supported by the so-called libya shield brigade that's been deployed by the interim government to act as a peace keeping force clashes between rival groups are common as a country is still awash with weapons seized by. rebels during the uprising against moammar gadhafi. millions along the east coast of the u.s. are without power after violent storms pounded the region at least thirteen people were killed by falling trees that destroyed homes and cars it could take generating companies up to a week to restore electricity to those affected the storms came out there are record high temperatures scorc
