michael foley said the u.s. policy against paying ransom for hostages is too rigid.spoke about that with our anderson cooper. >> what kind of guy was he? >> anderson, i don't want jim to have died in vain. and from the amount of support i've seen and interest, i certainly don't believe that will be the case. but i want people to remember jim and his legacy, how he -- you know, his fight for the less than privileged people. for the poor. for his love of journalism. his desire to bring light, bring the story out from places in the world that wouldn't otherwise be heard. and jim's really -- really my hero. and i think he's a hero for many people. and i really just hope that legacy carries on. >> is that really what compelled him? i mean, he came late to the world of journalism. >> he did. >> he was 40 years old when he died. but to go to the places repeatedly that he went to. there are other forms of journalism one can do but he chose the path and most dangerous path imaginable. for you, in his description of him, it was always about trying to get a voice to those who d

ron, i'm going to ask you the question that michael foley, james foley brother wants to ask the administrationransom to these people to free americans? >> if you start paying ransom, it causes more americans to be at risk of being abducted. i just don't think it's a good precedent to pay ransom to these terrorists. >> you are saying the united states should not negotiate with terrorists? >> no. on the other hand, bowe bergdahl, the army individual that was taken by terrorists and we did negotiate his return, we did not leave a soldier, whether he deserted his unit or abducted on the battle field, we don't leave our soldiers behind. >> do you agree because there are ten americans currently being held ovenling -- hostage over seas by various terrorist countries? >> i first have to say our hearts go out to jim foley's family, as a mother, i can't even imagine what that would be like and i would probably be at the white house's door begging them to pay the ransom if it was my son or daughter, but we can't let these terrorists dictate what u.s. policy is. i completely agree with ron. i think it wou

. >> i'd like to get you to respond to michael foley, jim foley's brother, pretty emotional comments. he said, and i quote, the united states could have done more on behalf of the western and american hostages over there. >> well, first of all, our hearts go out to mr. foley and the entire foley family. i cannot imagine how it must feel to lose a loved one and to lose a loved one in such a horrible way. i certainly understand that any family would want to make sure that we're moving heaven and earth to find and bring home american hostages. i can assure you that we have done everything that we can possibly do to try to bring home our hostages. it's an incredibly difficult circumstance in a place like syria, again, where you have such a violent conflict raging. but we've used all of our military intelligence, diplomatic resources we can bring to bear to try to pull a thread to find out where our hostages are, to try to rescue them when we saw an opportunity, to try to work with any country that might have any means of locating them. tragically, we weren't able to rescue mr. foley. but

abducted, including one on the destruction of the ancient city of aleppo, according to his brother, michael foley. the oldest of five children, foley was 40 years old. his family says before becoming a journalist, tolly worked with the disadvantaged, as a teacher and mentor. >> let's talk more about this with cnn's athena jones in washington and white house correspondent michelle kosinski who is in martha's vineyard with the president. atheen in a, it was touching and amazing what foley's mother said, she was never more proud of her son. >> it was and foley is being remembered as someone who was funny, who was warm. one of his friends described him as a big lebowsky type of guy. he was aware of the risk covering war zones but his work was important to him. after he was captured for the first time and released in libya he told ""the boston globe"" i believe that front line journalism is important. without these photos and videos and firsthand experience, we can't really tell the world how bad it might be. carol? >> he was kidnapped back in 2012. was anyone looking for him? >> well certainly his fa

my question to you is did we and secondarily, michael foley, the brother of james foley, has said that he wants the united states to change the policy to possibly negotiate with terrorists and actually exchange ransom. your thoughts? >> i don't support -- first of all, let me just say that obviously if i had a loved one that had been kidnapped, i would want the government to do anything possible in order to have that person returned safely. it is a very difficult policy to try to develop and to follow and the problem of course is that once you pay a ransom, it's going to encourage other kidnappings and that's just not a place where i think it's good for the united states government. i worry about the disclosure of the fact that we tried a military operation in order to rescue him. what it's going to do is alert the terrorist groups around the world holding u.s. hostages that we're prepared to take certain kinds of military action and that's probably going to cause them to harden their defenses. i worry that we talk even at a general level that we're willing to undertake these kind of o

what michael foley who is jim folly's brother, who was sitting alongside his sister, katie foley, said about this very notion, have a look. >> you can accomplish both things. the united states could have done more on behalf of the western and american hostages over there and still, you know, dealt with the broader worldwide issues and other nations have done that and that's been a source of frustration for me. and i really, really, really hope that in some way jim's death pushes us to take another look at our approach, our policy to terrorists and hostage negotiations and rethink that. >> again, jim foley's siblings speaking earlier today about what's happened in the aftermath of the execution of their brother. if i could ask you, peter bergen the very tough words and reminder to our viewers on the right-hand side of your screen we're awaiting the pentagon briefing any moment. there is a lot to speak of today. the notion that there is this, now, ramped up rhetoric it seems from the defense secretary himself. suggesting, a, we may need to take this battle to syria and, b, expect anythin
