yesterday, the followers of shiite cleric muqtada al-sadr tore down a protective blast wall, stormed the green zone, and occupied parliament to demand political reforms. it was the first time the green zone had ever been breached. iraqi prime minister haider al- abadi has vowed to enact reforms. in continued sectarian violence, isis claimed responsibility for suicide car bombings today on a bus station and a government building in a mostly shiite city 140 miles south of baghdad. police say at least 32 people were killed and at least 75 others wounded. the airport in brussels, belgium, bombed by isis terrorists 40 days ago, has repaired and reopened its main departure hall. until today, passengers had been using a temporary check-in tent. belgian prime minister charles michel said, "we choose to resist. brussels is back in business." he unveiled a plaque commemorating the 16 people killed by suicide bombers there on march 22. the airport hopes to reach 100 percent capacity next month. following five to ten inches of rain over the past two days, the national weather service has issued

the crowd, backed by popular shiite cleric muqtada al-sadr demanded prime minister haider al abadi overhaul his cabinet which they say is part of a corrupt political system put in place by the u.s. after the invasion in 2003. this weekend's security breach came less than 48 hours after vice president joe biden visited the iraqi capitol in a show of support for al abadi who the u.s. regards as a stable partner in the war on isis. but there is concern isis is feeding off this political instability. this afternoon the group carried out twin car bombings that rocked the southern iraqi city of samawah. more than 30 people were killed. it is the latest in a recent wave of attacks. jonathan vigliotti, cbs news, london. >> glor: the cleanup continues following a train derailment and chemical spill in washington, d.c. this morning. a freight train went off the tracks flipping 14 cars on their side. the train was carrying sodium hydroxide used in household cleaning products but no evacuations were ordered and the spill has been contained. at last night's white house correspondent dinner president oba

down a section of the perimeter wall, thousands of protesters loyal to controversial shiite cleric muqtada al-sadr broke into parliament, chanted anti- government slogans and ransacked the building. al-sadr and his followers oppose thgovernment of prime minister haider al-abadi, himself a shiite, for not delivering political reforms. iraq's government declared a state of emergency and closed all gates leading to baghdad. security forces fired tear gas to disperse protesters. earlier in the day, in a shiite suburb of baghdad, sunni militants from isis carried out a suicide truck bombing in an outdoor food market, killing at least 20 people and wounding more than 40 others. secretary of state john kerry will travel to geneva, switzerland, tomorrow for talks to salvage a cease-fire in syria. he'll meet with foreign ministers of jordan and saudi arabia and the united nations envoy to syria. while there is a lull in fighting around the capital of damascus, syrian government air strikes on the divided city of aleppo continued for a ninth straight day. president bashar al-assad's warplanes and he

these are followers of shia cleric muqtada al sadr, and it's the second day they've reached security diplomatic area, tearing down heavy walls. they say they want the prime minister to resign and for the country to hold new elections. this newest demonstration was one of a series of anti-government protests in recent months which came to a head on saturday as an angry crowd stormed baghdad's parliament and chaotic scenes. the prime minister has promised to arrest them. the iraqi government has more than this political turmoil on its mind today. earlier bomb attacks killed at least 30 people in the southern city. isis has claimed responsibility saying the intended target was iraqi police. but many civilians including children were caught up in these blasts. and the geography of this violence may create a new challenge for the iraqi government. it's unusual for isis to attack in these mainly shia areas in the south. and while the situation in baghdad's green zone has calmed since yesterday, the crisis is far from over. all this come at a time when the u.s. is counting on the country to

video of recent protests that have gone on for months in baghdad led by shiite cleric muqtada al sadr. protesters were able to break into the parliament building. now a map of the green zone, a u.s. defense official tells fox news more than two dozen marines have now arrived in the green zone at the request from the u.s. ambassador for a rapid response protection force at that facility. >>> more on that story. the combat death this week of u.s. navy s.e.a.l. charles keating in iraq comes at a crossroads for the american military's presence there and in neighboring syria. tough realities are being confronted in the allied effort to defeat the isis threat. so joining us now for his perspective, retired four star general jack keene, former vice chief of staff of the u.s. army. he is also a fox news military analyst. general, thank you so much for joining us today. i'm really actually interested in hearing your take on what's happened this week. first and foremost i want to get your reaction when you heard of the navy s.e.a.l.'s death, charles keating, this week. it's a very fluid front l

muqtadaer, the shiite cleric, has been leading street protests against him. the kurds, of course, have been talking about if not full-fledged autonomy, independence. so you have a country that's breaking apart at the seams and is not in the interest, i think, of the united states to promote a partition of iraq and to -- into two or three states because, if we did that, it would be a major roll of the dice, what would be the impact on the syrians. would that country then split? what would be the impact on lebanon? these countries were put together a century ago by the british and french with collapse of the ottoman empire. some of these borders are official, but if you begin to partition these countries, i think it's uncertain if that will fuel further warfare and further division. >> rose: the interesting irani is joe biden was once associated with the idea. >> that's right, but biden is a good soldier, so he's there tidying the administration's line. what i think is interesting about this trip is president obama is much interested less in general in domestic

it just shows how fragile -- >> rose: that's because of muqtada al-sadr? >> it is, but a government who can't control the intimate space of its capital is a very fragile government, and if that government crumbled suddenly, all of this military power, all the plans, all the operations that i had a chance to look at, i think, become a lot more difficult. >> rose: when i saw the president in germany when he had gone to saudi arabia and then to germany, one of the things he said to me was he was making a strong effort to bring support for the prime minister of iraq among the european allies to give him as much help as they possibly could to give him strength to go through this because he was facing challenges not only from outside and i.s.i.s. and that but also challenges from inside. >> what's happened interestingly in iraq was the shiite coalition has begin to really fracture. >> rose: right. you could say iran has had as much as trouble being a hegemon in ike as we did. the iranians have been able to keep their shiite allies all on the same page and going

the demonstrators were acting on the orders of muqtada al sadr, the powerful shiite cleric responsible for launching a bloody insurgency against u.s. forces. tension had been mounting for months. public protests against what's seen as rampant corruption in the government run by prime minister haider al abadi. and it came just 48 hours after the unannounced visit of vice president joe biden not only to support the beleaguered prime minister but to bolster the military fight against isis. now breaching the green zone is unprecedented. anybody who has been there can tell you what a fortress it is and it's home to the u.s. embas embassy. there is now a sense it is no longer impregnable. if they did it once, they may be able to do it again. norah? >> and that is frightening indeed. thank you so much, charlie d'agata. >>> puerto rico is heading for a massive debt fault. it will not pay most of $422 million due today. puerto rico's total debt load is more than $70 billion. congress has been unable to pass a debt restructuring bill. puerto rico is not a state. a $2 billion payment is due in ju

muqtada al sadr is alive with the person the u.s. is backing.ingly, fighting against former prime minister maliki. the interesting question in all of this is where is iran? iran has now inherited the role we once had in trying to decide these big questions in iran. iran is making almost as much a mess of it as the united states did. >> mike? >> david, in the last segment, we were talking about the appeal or the potential appeal of donald trump's message and you raised the question that will be answered this fall, how sick is this country of war, of endless wars. let's talk for a minute about the reality of the world around us. you have iraq fractured, for years, fracturing more now. you have syria fractured and incredibly violent. and it's effect on europe. you have afghanistan, which we pay very little attention to, politically, where people -- our people, are still dying and is sucking up billions of our dollars. so the reality of the world around us, for both of these candidates, or all the candidates for president, what are they going to be

mostly a grat roots movement, a secularist movement to an extent was taken over by she ate cleric muqtada saw saw thousands of his protesters taking to the streets in recent weeks. he's issued ultimatum after ult mate imto parliament, to politicians to give people the changes they're looking for, but nothing has happened. then again, of course, it seems that the final straw, rosemary, was on saturday when nothing happened. when there was no quorum in parliament. the prime minister couldn't present his cabinet that people have been asking for for a vote because parliamentarians did not show up. that is when we saw al sadr's speech and people breaching the green zone. what happens next? nothing has essentially changed other than al sadr showing he really is serious about this, that his supporters are capable of turning baghdad into this chaos that we saw in the heart of government in the green zone. so the situation may have calmed down for the time being, but it is not over. and it all depends on what iraq's politicians are going to do now. a very, very unpredictable and volatile situation

protesters in iraq demonstrating against the government there somewhat at the behest of the shiite cleric muqtadahe concern was more demonstrations would break out. so far the day appears to have been relatively peaceful in the green zone where the u.s. embassy is located. that's why the marines were sent there. but there is -- these pictures of course from last week. but always concern, you know, in the wake of the disastrous attack on the u.s. compound in enghazi, libya, some years ago. the state department taking no chances, requesting this additional security. the marines are there. right now the word is everything is relatively calm. in fact, the u.s. doesn't believe these protesters are really aiming for any demonstration against the u.s., against the u.s. embassy, but the green zone is supposed to be the most secure area. the u.s. embassy is there. the marines are there to make sure they keep it secure. pamela? >> barbara starr. thank you for bringing us the latest. >>> still ahead, she hasn't told bernie sanders to end his campaign, but hillary clinton is giving her democratic opponent a

tom, i'm very seriously concerned about the situation in iraq today, and i think what you saw with muqtada al sadr's takeover of the green zone was very, very disturbing. it's more of what we saw before. >> do you see it as an extension of the iranian play -- >> i don't think there's any doubt in the world that iran is the most important player, foreign nation, player in iraq today form not the united states, nobody else -- iran. they have an influence on the shia government, and have had since that government came to power. of course iraq is a shia majority state. so, yeah, i see a lot of iranian influence. >> so what, from your perspective, should the united states be saying? doing? building a coalition of other countries that have a stake in long-term iraqi stability in order to make sure that this shia perspective, this rad cat shia perspective does not poison any ability to bring the sunnis and kurds long term back to the table toufr a united country. >> i don't know of anything we can do other than to continue to work with the iraqi government. president obama is incrementally increa
