>> there is no iraq. there is no iraq. excuse me there are no iraqis. many factions. >> and you don't think that bombing iraqi oil fields owned by isis is going to anger huge amounts of people? >> i wouldn't send any troops because you wouldn't need them by the time i got finished. i'd bomb the hell out of the oil fields and get exxon and other oil companies to rebuild them so fast your head would spin. you ever see how fast they put up rigs? these guys are unbelievable. they would be in there, finished so fast. >> wouldn't you need u.s. troops to protect the oil fields? >> yes. you put a ring around them. you've taken all of the wealth away. this is what should be done. >> bomb the hell out of those oil fields. i see that smile on your face. you're a military man and don't delve into the realm of politics but i know you have thoughts on this. is that even in the world of plausible? >> well let me just state first, brooke that over the last 40 years when i was a soldier, i was very apolitical. we would judge the people running for office based on their

>> there is no iraq. >> the iraqis might different with you. >> there are no iraqis. they're broken up into so many different factions? >> you don't think bombing iraqi o oil fields is going to anger huge numbers of people? >> i would bomb the hell out of those oil fields. you won't need the troops by the time i got finished. i'd bomb the hell out of the oil fields. i'll get exxon and the great oil companies to go in. they will rebuild them so fast. >> do you have to have u.s. troops? >> excuse me. you ever see how fast they put up rigs? these guys are unbelievable. i'd go to exxonmobil and the other top five oil companies. >> wouldn't you need the u.s. troops to protect them? >> put a ring around them. put a ring. you have just taken all of the wealth away, this is what should be done. no politician will do that. >> that didn't work out so well when john mccain said "bomb, bomb, bomb," did it? trump's comments are coming as iraqi oil production hit an all-time high. the country has pumped out four millio

iraqis there is no iraq.t's just not true. >> it certainly is not true. and i heard his comments about the kurds. that they're the only ones fighting. i think there are several groups within iraq that are fighting desperately for their country. and fighting desperately for nationalism. so again it is just a lack of understanding of what is going on in that country. and what concerns me is mr. trump steams to be applying this to various places around the world making very simplistic analogies with almost comic book approaches to some of the more significant problems our u.s. president will eventually have to face when we elect the next one. >> when you bomb the hell out of oil fields. understandable rational desire to want to take the source of fund for a terror group. but when you bomb the hell to use his quote out of oil fields you are destroying future infrastructure used by iraq and also i mean doesn't that unite everybody in iraq against the united nations? >> absolutely. and i think that's what chairman

>> there is no iraq. >> iraqis might differ -- >> there are no iraqis.hey are broken up -- >> you don't think bombing iraqi oil fields is going to anger huge numbers of people? >> i would bomb the hell out of those oil fields. i wouldn't send many troops because you won't need them. i would get exxon and the oil companies to go in and rebuild them so fast -- >> you have to have u.s. troops -- >> excuse me. you see how fast they put up rigs? i go to the top five companies. >> don't you need u.s. troops to protect them? >> you put a ring around them. you have taken all the wealth away. this is what should be done. but no politician is going to do that. >> donald trump there. and anderson asked trump about a report from the "washington post" that illegal immigrants are working at the construction site at his hotel in washington. this is after trump said some mexican immigrants in the u.s. are criminals and rapists. >> the "washington post" say that some of the workers that are building your hotel in washington, d.c. are illegal. they talked to 15 workers an

and there is no iraq. let's face it. iraq is just a name.eeting with iran about a takeover. and isis is building hotels in iraq. you believe it? they're building a hotel. because they have so much money. because they've taken over so much oil. we're so stupid. we are led by stupid people. and i'm very proud of the fact that i was opposed -- and i'm a very military-oriented person. but i'm very proud of the fact that article came up because all these republican guys -- and hillary voted for it who would be one hell of a bad president. by the way, she was the worst secretary of state in the history of the country. the worst. [ applause ] and now she's going to be president. and bush is so bad. who would you rather have trump negotiating with china or bush negotiating with china? i'll give you the answer to that one. so anyway so we have to have a very strong military we have to protect our people and we have to have it so we don't even use it, but we have to have it. because if we have it it won't have to be used. >> donald trump, as he contin

>> there is no iraq. their leadership is corruption. there are no iraqis. they are broken up into so many factions. >> you don't think bombing iraqi oil is going to danger huge numbers of people? >> i would bomb the hell out of the oil fields. don't send many troops you won't need them. i bomb them. then get exxon. they would rebuild them so fast your head would spin. ever see how fast they put up rigs? exxon mobile the top five companies would be in there and finished so fast. >> would you need u.s. troops? >> yeah you put a ring around them. you have taken all the health away. >> it's interesting. past the bluster and superlatives he says he doesn't want to be asked those questions or tested on things. that's, i think, what voters want to know wharks is your plan. how would you handle these things. i want to know if you win my vote that way. >> look this is a tricky situation because he is fueling interest in the campaign. >> sure. >> we want you to be interested in the campaign. >> we want you engaged, of course. >> but the idea he is resinating with peo

no arms to the houthis no arms to the shia in iraq. no arms to hezbollah, no arms to north korea. all of these are existing conditions that we can enforce. so we didn't think we were losing anything, in fact we won a victory to get the five and the eight to continue with them in the context of the nuclear resolution, where they believed they didn't belong in the first place. my time is up, correct me on one thing, you said at the beginning it was on the table from the beginning. >> no, what was -- their demand was on the table from the beginning. >> their demand, and we said no from the beginning and frankly we knew this was going to come down to be probably the last issue. >> and then you said it was slid in at the end. >> at the u.n. by susan rice, when she first wrote resolution 1929, the armed embargo came into that resolution, at the very last minute. >> my only point, i am sorry i am cutting you off the inspection of those some satisfaction we didn't give away to put israel or the other middle eastern countries in jeopardy is a serious question that needs to be responded to,

no decision -- no decision has done more than the president's withdrawal of american troops from iraqlet no one be mistaken. leaders of both parties made grave mistakes in iraq. but in january of 2009, when barack obama became commander in chief, iraq had been largely pacified. america had won the war, but our president failed to secure the peace. how callous it seems now as cities once secured with american blood are now being taken by america's enemies all because of a campaign slogan. i saw during vietnam, a war where politicians didn't keep faith with the sacrifices and courage of america's fighting men and women, where men were ordered into combat without the full support of their commanders. to see it happen again, 40 years later, because of political gamesmanship and and dishonesty is a national disgrace. >> [applause] rick perry: but my friends, we are a resilient country. >> [cheering] rick perry: you think about who we are. we've been through a civil war. we've been through two world wars. we even made it through jimmy carter. we will make it through the obama years. we will

without iran you get no stability in afghanistan, no stability in iraq no end to the war in syria, no security ultimately. this is much more important than just the nuclear agreement. >> that's not how the israelis see it as you know. in fact they agree it may be a new day in the international community, but it's a bad one. chris just interview add top israeli official who said the problem with this deal is that billions of dollars will flow into iran as will other weapons. >> i don't doubt that the israelis netanyahu and otherwise, believe that because this puts iran in a position of becoming a fairly reliable and stable partner for the united states. after all, it is the most stable country in southwest asia even today. and therefore giving israel some competition. i'd probably feel that way if i were netanyahu with his aspirations too. but that's not the best thing for the region the best thing for israel and certainly not for the united states. >> the baseline concern is you have a country that you've just done business with who says death to you, u.s. and death to israel and they

iraq. there is no government in iraq. the so-called government in iraq went to iran. to meet with iran.ran is going to take over iraq. as simple as that. okay? simple as that. >> i don't know the government of iraq or whatever you want to call them would support our bombing the oil fields in iraq. >> who cares? >> jimmy: that should be his campaign slogan, by the way. who cares? [ cheers and applause ] we will soon have a new republican candidate for president, new jersey governor chris christie expected to announce tomorrow. christie's slogan is telling it like it is. though his campaign hasn't officially been announced today they released their very first campaign ad. >> olive garden's never ending pasta bowl is back. the never ending pasta bowl for a limited time. only at olive garden. [ applause ] that's the ad? that's surprising. this is going to be an incredible 16 months. the big question -- not who wins. fat jokes or hair jokes. which will we run out of first? we have great guests tonight. we have music from miguel emilia clarke. from the big summer blockbuster "terminator: geni

current relationship between iraq and al qaeda. there was no iraqi involvement in 9/11. there was not even an iraqi foreknowledge of 9/11. they were surprised as we were. that's what we said. scooter libby did not like what we said. he believed there was a connection. he thought we were wrong and after we put this paper out and said what i just said the call that my boss and told her to withdraw the paper and fix fix it because it was wrong. we just put our hands up and said no i'm not doing that. i told you earlier we are nonpartisan and we call it like they see it. we are the umpire and we are the refereeing please call it like we see it. we didn't budge. scooter libby called john mclaughlin was the deputy director of the cia to complain about the paper and george tenet and john mclaughlin said no, stop. and president bush did something really important. my boss to scooter libby called and said that java's paper and she refused she briefed president bush on christmas eve in 2002. went to camp david to give him his daily intelligence briefing

unlike iraq, where the united states had the ability to bomb iraq, in a sense with impunity, because iraq had nobility to strike back. the risk of a military strike is not so much what would happen after a single strike, but you could end up with a war in iran against the middle east. that would like different. iran has a navy, we could see naval battles, and it would be a more difficult scenario. any time you unleek the power of war, iraq has shown that. >> jamie mcintyre, thank you as always, we appreciate it. >> next - what happiness if president obama and president hassan rouhani agree to a deal but the u.s. congress at home refuses to approve it. "on target" returns in a moment. >>> the talks with a nuclear deal with iran fast approaching, president hassan rouhani is under a lot of pressure from his population, and the supreme leader to ensure a favourable agreement. if a deal is brokered how quickly will sanctions be lifted. joining me to tackle these questions is an iranian-american scholar spending 40 years in the united states, a founder of the iranian american council, a nonprofit tryi

but again there are sectarian concerns in iraq and in carter, no doubt will reaffirm the u.s. military commitment to the region and, indeed his commitment to countries like israel, saudi arabia qatar and jordan. here that deal is a good thing and could possibly bring some calm to the unrest we've seen over the years. >> a memorial service has been held in texas for sandra bland. she was found dead in a jail cell after being pulled over for not using her car indicator. >> get out of the car now. >> i'm going to yank you out of here. >> at a time when the spotlight is on law enforcement in the united states this happens. >> get out of the car. i will write you up. >> uaw. >> uaw. >> what should have been a routine traffic warning turns sour. the local police chief admits the police officer did not follow the correct procedures. >> we have the obligation to ex-picture professionalism and be courteous. >> you're about to break my wrist, stop! >> some people may find the video released by the texas police uncomfortable to watch. [ yelling ] >> and some of the most dramatic parts fa

no nuclear bomb. we have a heavy walter facility in iraq. ran has accepted to have no reprocessing at heavy water for a long time. as long as you have no reprocessing, it is impossible to make nuclear bomb from heavywater facility. moreover, as a goodwill, iran has accepted to reduce the production of little medium from dish plutonium from 10 kilogram to blow one kilogram because if you are doing processing, you would need 10 kilogram plutonium to produce a nuclear bomb. then went iran is reducing less than one kilogram per year, this would double guarantee that iran would never be after nuclear weapon from heavywater facility. again another confidence building measure, iran has agreed to spend -- to export -- spent fuel from heavywater. even if you have 10 kilogram plutonium, even if you are reprocessing, and you export spent fuel, it is impossible to make their bomb. therefore, all possible measures have been agreed to secure no nuclear weapon from heavywater. then we go to enrichment facility. iran has agreed to enrich below 5%. to make nu

be six targets in syria and ten in iraq. no word yet on just how many people were killed. meanwhile, i.s.i.l. is claiming responsibility for four explosions in gaza city today attacking officials from hamas and islamic jihad. stefanie dekker is there. >> a bomb is placed under a fuel tank. >> the huge explosion first we thought it was israel attacking us then we realized it's from inside gaza. that's scary when your enemy is one of your brothers are if your country. we should protect each other. >> reporter: they were quick to say all is under control and a number of arrests have been made but no specific group has been named. it's not the first time that hamas has been attacked from within. often salafi groups, or islamic state of iraq and the levant. hamas say i.s.i.l. is trying to destabilize gaza. >> any instability of gaza will be seen as a weakness of hamas and often these salafi groups launch attacks against israel, and any attacks against israel also cause hamas instability because israelis hold hamas as responsible for missiles coming out of gaza. >> it's a year s

>> it stemmed the tide for isis but it is no the removing them from iraq. so it is not. >> so you believe that isis is losing? >> no, sir, i do not. >> you believe they are winning? >> no sir i don't believe they are winning eerth. i believe they are at a stalemate right now. >> they are at a stalemate. when you have a stalemate, then when the enemy controls the largest, second largest city and about a third of it and the only people fighting against them are shia militias backed by those and sosomeni responsible for the attack of the soldiers orchestrating the attacks. i don't think we are doing what we are doing. i am very disappointed in a number of your answers. let me just go back again. you no he what happened in that recruiting station, don't you? the guy walked to the door and shot and killed four marines. that was in the media. i'm sure no matter what job you are holding, you knew that didn't you? >> yes senator. >> shouldn't we have had those marines be able to defend themselves? >> senator, the marines needed to have the force protection. at the r

then we will have no eyes on iraq's nuclear program and head to the worst of both worlds. 's last word. thank you for joining us tonight. appreciate it. >>> chris hayes is up next. >>> i'll fight any man in the house for a dollar. so who is going to take on donald trump? let's play "hardball." >>> good evening. i'm chris matthews in washington. well, it's clown car tuesday with the king of the clown car now leading the parade. donald trump is now soaring in the republican polls, well above jeb bush and all the others. the only question who's going to take him on? which republican is going to risk a face-off with the guy and challenge with it the old rule of never get into a peeing match with a skunk or in this case donald trump. he pulled his old number of picking a fight with lindsey graham that shows just what happens when you take a jab at the p.t. barnum of american politics.

then bought expanding the of the ones across the middle east there it is no force iraq or syria willing unable to take territory away from isil in a poll that none of the current training efforts of iraqi security forces or sunii key and produce such debt ground force and it isn't clear by the light latest escalation of the advisers to a anbar will make a difference as previous efforts fail to achieve. with the air campaign continues to be of limited significantly by restrictive rules of engagement that only gets worse as it moved into urban areas to avoid coalition bombing. they're only good is the targets they received but then they still return to base without dropping weapons it is indicative of a fundamental problem of the air campaign. what is worse the and can succeed if it continues and if the continued growth with the radicalization as published media reports indicate it is a the began struggling but going after the forces with the enabling capabilities to succeed in any in engagement they may face inside syria. their doubtful we can achieve our goal but even if it does with th

no protection. we did not learn the lessons in iraq and that is a crying shame. we look forward to having this hearing and hearing the answers and responses of that but now i would like to recognize the ranking member, mr. cummings, for five minutes. >> thank you, mr. chairman, as i listened to your statement i sat here and said to myself, we're better than that. we're better than this. listening to your answers to the questions that you presented i think there's a lot to be discussed here this morning. so i'm glad that you're holding this very important hearing on u.s. embassy in afghanistan. i'd like to make three main points that i think we all can agree on. first and foremost, the safety of united states personnel serving overseas is a top national security priority and it's critical to our country's interests around the entire world. second, we recognize that the urgency of rapidly securing u.s. facilities abroad may cost more for faster results. however, cutting corners may have the opposite effect and careful, very careful stewardship of taxpayer funds is

no. >> what's happening in iraq and these terrible things in syria, lebanon, those people have to knowill be held responsible ten, 20 whenever, forever. >> reporter: the trial produced justice. and it produced strange encounters like when groening embraced eva kor another survivor, when she went over to confront him. >> forgiveness is the best revenge. >> reporter: at 94, oskar groening may never actually go to prison but whatever time he has left will be lived with the knowledge that even the accountants of the holocaust are guilty of its crimes. mark phillips, cbs news, london. >> pelley: and that's the "cbs evening news" for tonight. for all of us at cbs news all around the world. good night. captioning sponsored by cbs captioned by media access group at wgbh access.wgbh.org >>> first at 7:00 a major break in a decades old murder case. >> charging lloyd lee michael welch, jr. with first degree felony murder for his involvement in the deaths of sheila and katherine lyon. >> the wheels of justice sometimes turn slowly, but tonight prosecutors say we are a good bit closer to justice fo

iraq. some said if american forces had stayed there would be no isis. ever in the cards. iraq's prime minister maliki had a new set of patrons. his fellow shiites in tehran. and they made him an offer he couldn't refuse. >> that was part of iran's deal with maliki. we will give you a third term but the conditions are no american soldiers. that was what tehran demanded and no way we were going through the parliament. >> one thing is clear. it was only iraq's army that could have stopped isis. instead, iraqi soldiers threw down the weapons and ran. next on blind sight, what drives these? what makes them tick? you will go inside the mind of a radical. meet a man who was prepared to die for a fantasy. the idea of an islamic caliphate. >>> the 1980s and 90s in pakistan were crucial years for jihad. bin laden was there, it's where al qaeda and islamic terrorism as we know it today was born. foreign fighters were constantly flowing in. now incredibly foreign fighters are flowing in even faster to iraq and syria. an estimated 20,000 of them in total. what drives

iraq. but the pkk had nothing to do with our discussions regarding i sold. -- isil. charlie: nosh troops in iraq or syria? brett: yes, and we discussed this with them. with turkish soldiers be a part of operations on the ground in syria? turkey told us that is not something they work on -- contemplating. they wanted to use maneuver units to fight isil. the last time i was on your show, since then we were a week into the bombing campaign. we have done 6000 or so airstrikes. of course, we have had a number of ground operations in syria and iraq. we have learned when you have a maneuver force on the ground, we can coordinate with them, then we can be pretty devastating against isilk. if you look at the euphrates river everything to the east on the border, hundreds of kilometers that i sold===sil used to control -- everything to the west, there is a 90 kilometer strip a still control. that is the straight we are focused on. if we can help the syrians get control of the area working with turkey isil will no longer have an outlet. there proclaimed caliphate will be more of a self cont

the president was to take our troops out of iraq, to no longer have influence we had in the military and would have had in their governmental sector to make sure that sunnis were involved in the leadership not only of the military but the country. so if we are going to be successful in iraq the way the president said we were successful -- back in 2012 he said that iraq was a shining success. and if we are going to get that kind of success again we are going to have to get sunnis to participate in the leadership of iraq. >> how do we do it? >> he is the guy who went in there. he had a meeting in the oval office and he said mr. president your strategy is failing. it's failing in iraq and afghanistan. you need to fire your generals and you have to search not only do you not withdraw but have to surge the troops. he got a call from dick cheney saying you convinced the president and waupts you to run it. he said i got a guy. i know this guy, general petraeus. he takes over. and it works. we had the surge. it works. so is that where we are now? someone is going to have to go in there and s

charlie: they have said no turkish troops in iraq or syria, correct?tt: this is something we discussed for a number of months would turkish soldiers be part of an operation underground? turkey told us that is not something they were contemplating. we looked to use syrians on the ground in syria to fight isil, building upon what we have learned. last time i was on your show was 11 months ago. we were about a week into the bombing campaign. we have done about 6000 or so airstrikes. about 5600 now. we have a number of ground operations in syria and iraq and have learned that when you have a force on the ground to coordinate with, we can be devastating. if you look at the euphrates river, everything to the east of the euphrates, hundreds of kilometers that isil controlled is controlled by the syrian kurds. to the west, a 90 kilometer strip that isil controls, is what we are focused on. if we can help the syrians get control of that area in working with turkey, isil will no longer have a outlet. their caliphate will be a self-contained problem. then we can

this will be a long haul and there is no great alternative to the current government in iraq it is moreinclusive of the sunnis. there is no alternative to the government of assad in syria. that is why we are not doing more things in syria against isil because the degrading the opposition to much can be seen as helping the assad regime. we need to do more to undermine the assad regime and build up political stability and inclusiveness in iraq and then you can get more people into the program. katty: right, but that has proven very difficult. even finding those moderate syrian is a hard task. i was struck listening to the president, although he went to the pentagon with a great flurry of attention, but there was little new in what he said in terms of policy because there isn't much. matthew: nothing new in policy. i noticed when he talked about improvements in the train and equip program, he highlighted in particular iraq -- katty: he didn't say how many though. matthew: he didn't say how many and he didn't touch on syria which is going poorly. greater recognition of the fact that this is

contract was that that time in 2006 and seven they had searched the troops into iraq as you might recall leaving as noted no resources to put into afghanistan. no american soldiers and so the solution was let's get a bunch of ammo and try to create an army on the fly. david was a licensed the sewer and a part time student at college. david was in ninth grade dropout and a third one was a pot dealers of these were three dudes. he had ambitions. he wanted to be a rock star committee was working on an album and wanted to travel the world and so he dove into the world and then scabbard them for this contract to try to find the cheapest price for 100,000 grenades. the cheapest one of emphasizing saying the cheapest because that is what the pentagon wanted the cheapest, not the best. there was no quality obligation except it have to be serviceable to the arms dealing world means it goes out the barrel of the gun and that's it. so they were looking for the cheapest. the one rule was they couldn't buy from the russians or the chinese. those were the two countries in the world that could actually survive this and th

there was no way it had gone through the parliament. >> one thing is clear, it was only iraq's army thatould have stopped isis. instead, iraqi soldiers threw down their weapons and ran. >> next on "blindsided," what drives these people? what makes them tick? we will go inside the mind of a radical. immediate a man who was prepared to die for a fantasy. the idea of an islamic caliphate. . ears for jihad. bin ladin was there, sawzawahiri was there. foreign fighters were constantly flowing from but now incredibly foreign fighters are flowing in even faster to iraq and syria. an estimated 20,000 of them in total. what drives these people there? what makes them leave home to go far away and fight for an idea? a fantasy. you're about to find out. in the days that followed 9-11 just about everyone in the world 150e78d to be stand seemed to be standing with the united states. but not this man. >> i am sorry to say this but i lacked any empathy with the victims. >> maga nowa didn't start as a radical. he grew up here in essex, england, the son of hard working pakistani parents. but he didn't quit

lost in american society who want to go and fly over to syria and iraq because it's been glorified as this amazing warrior type training. no. it's hell in iraq and syria. and we're not doing a very good job on social media of really putting that information out there and showing these people that look you're seeing this from isis? but this is the reality of what it actually is to be in those situations and what you're going to be fighting for. >> i want to roll this from rudy giuliani but it's about basically what eric is saying is that what's needed is a victory. giuliani kind of spells out how it could be done or how fast. >> i believe if the united states wanted to in six months it could take out isis completely. it's not like iran. long term i consider iran the great threat to america. isis is a threat that a good president with the military we have could take out in six months. >> six months. >> do you agree? >> oh, yeah. that's the point. that's the point that eric was mocking earlier. because i think john kerry the secretary of state said we can take these guys out anytime. >> but he won't. >> what he's mocking is t

everyone saying we had no ideal died in iraq would turn into this.were caught off-guard. you were one of those people who saw the middle east shifting in this direction. my question for you, is what comes after isis and can it get worse? >> i would definitely say it can get worse. one of the big problems i said this with you before i believe president obama is directly responsible in large part for the rice of eyes sis because he left no troops behind. he was more concerned with fulfilling a campaign obligation a promise to pull all of our forces out of iraq and he never negotiated a status of forces agreement which would have allowed us to leave troops in there. so that's big problem. i talked to guys of mind, contacts of mine, responsible for getting terrorist out of iraq, going after them, killing them, capturing them. they were down to 16-year-old messenger boys before we pulled out. and we, if we had left troops there we would never seen this rice of isis. kennedy: here's the thing and i don't necessarily buy into the blowback theory but you hav

we see in iraq, syria and turkey no longer respect the borders dividing those countries. i think that turkey increasingly will be dragged more and more into that conflict. >> dozens have been killed in fighting between iraqi shia popular mobilization forces and isil. it happened in northeastern fallujah. iraqi military sources say 73 have died, i'll isil say 113 troops were killed. >> islamic state of iraq and the levant released figures through social media sites that they used saying they've killed at least 113 popular mobilization force soldiers, the shia militias. that's been denied by the baghdad operations commander who said that they have lost iraqi security forces, including members this year. they say the figures are around 76. there is a propaganda war going on between the iraqis and isil. isil say they are mounting a fight back against the operation by the iraqi security forces to get rid of them and using car bombs to devastating effects. the iraqi security forces have said this will be a decisive operation to go after isil in anbar province and once the citie

iraq and syria as a single theater. we have a limited set of permissions with an artificial border. as far as the enemy is concerned, there is no borderline on the iraq-syria border. we are offering -- operating on one side of it with lethal strikes and another offering reconnaissance only. on any logical assessment that is militarily inefficient syria is operating unarmed. it has to task other assets belonging to other coalition partners to make the effective strikes, if that is what is required. the simple efficiency logic of not being able to conduct operations across both theaters, i think, more importantly, it is difficult to see how dash will be effectively, militarily defeated without being defeated in its home base. this fight eventually has to go over the iraqi border into syria. at the moment, u.k. permissions are limited to iraq. hon. member: with respect, home secretary, it is a slightly artificial answer. without ground forces, we do not really expect to defeat dash through ground forces alone -- airstrikes alone. mr. hammond: there are ground forces being built by the peshmerga. the various shia militias are playi

there was no activity to support iraq's war effort inside iran, you know that we did have some very small - a trickle of support for saddam hussein, which was a life line, it was the same mistake we made in supplying arms to the ayatollah khamenei. my point is let's do this - if and when there's a deal, let's invite congress to open the book all the way and talk about everything that happened in the last 50 years and lay it bear. if we go ta. we can make good judgments about the negotiations. >>> i want to take a break. coming up, the nuclear haves, and have not, the objective of spreading. has it succeeded. is it fair? >> the treaty was a bargain between the countries that had nuclear weapons, and those that don't. >> five big powers negotiating with iran, for about 50 years they have violated >>> later on... >> the young man in charleston as punishment. >> you call him sick and dementeded as if he has a mental condition. i don't think he's mainstream, i don't think he's an anomaly >>> later, 1200 women from a native community in canada go missing. our correspondent talks to their anguis
