why are most in the media crying islam-phobia, a brouhaha in sports journalism when an azteca tv reporter goes all atwitter. on the panel. judy miller. conservative columnist, andrea ta this. taros, jim hen ken, jim pinkerton. i'm jon scott, news watch is on right now. >> a lot of people have already said that we can't win the general election. it is the same-- yes, we can. [laughter] >> yes, we can, yes, we can. >> it is those same so-called experts who said we have no chance of winning the primary. it will be hard work, but we can win and if those same people who fought against me work just as hard for me, we will win. >> jon: that's christine o'donnell the tea party-backed candidate who won the delaware primary to be that state's republican candidate for u.s. senate in november. her win brought headlines like these, the tea party's wins fuel a civil war won the g.o.p., that from usa today of course. there were a lot of headlines like that in other papers and the same kind of take in the, you know, usual liberal media on television, on cable and so forth. why? >> i think the mainstream

i guess if your kid has a phobia you want the toy to have a phobia. does that make sense? >> it is a parental decision. i remember when we are growing up -- and you are older than me. when we were growing up we had dolls like gi joe and things like that that were more action orant whid rather than more self-ago actual liesing. -- self-actualizing. we also had raggedy-andy. he was the precursor to freddy kruger. >> you will not throw one of these off the top flight of stairs and get a response from the bottom. it is just not going to do anything. it is not designed for fun. >> interesting you say up ward looking. my gi joes were often found days later in michael 11 after i lost them -- in my colon after i lost them. >> did you see these things catching on in the united states? >> no, the one that is weird is the sheep with a zipper in the middle. so what do you do? do you unzip the center of the sheep? >> i guess maybe because it is two personalities that are split. bill, how many of these do you own? >> none, greg, and i don't want to turn this whole, we've come a long way

so the whole gamut is-even simple phobias. people have phobias, and they interfere with their functioning. so co-occurring disorders can cover from people who have active psychoses and difficulties with reality contact to people who have stress disorders, and everything in between. and from an integrated approach, we also like to remind people that some, many individuals who are homeless also have medical conditions that are untreated, and that becomes part of the co-occurring context. so- as well. as well. so hypertension, diabetes, if you're injection drug user, you may have abscesses that need to be treated. you mention hiv. we want to make sure that a person who is hiv-positive is hooked up with ryan white, they can get on medication. the sooner you're on medication, the better off you are. but that does mean that, indeed, those services are available and that the caseworker or case manager is able to recognize that. so it's physical health, it's mental health, and it's substance use disorder, full spectrum. when we come b

but another class based on panic attacks, sudden feelings of intense fear and this includes phobias and post-traumatic stress disorders and these respond to other kinds of therapeutic interventions. >> rose: and then there is aggression. >> there is, indeed, aggression. >> rose: and violence. >> and violence. and william james again pointed out to us that aggression has been with us since dawn of humankind people have been getting involved in warfare since the history of mankind. so the issue of aggression is built into the capability of human action. we need to understand the biological underpinnings of it and we need to understand how to manage it, how to control it. and one of the key question which is we will consider is to what degree is aggression determined by genes and to what dey it determined by behavior, by environmental experience, by interaction with other people? and what can we do to regulate and limit aggression except when it's absolutely necessary. >> rose: as we said? the beginning we have assembled, again, a remarkable group of people who have made it their life's wo

the scheduled event brought back the topic of islamic phobia and that puts muslims on edge before hillary clinton and david petraeus strongly and publicly denounced the book burning. >> two days ago before all these statements surfaced, we were all very scared, very nervous. it was very uncertain. >> those guys are digging in their heels. the reverend jones has no intention of backing down. local organizations say they have no intention backing down either and vowing to increase their show of solidarity. the reverend jones says besides death threats, he also got a lot of encouragement. >> now 5:02. arson investigators called to the scene of an early morning fire at an apartment complex at 60th street and mlk in oakland. the fire was knocked down quickly. the fire is very suspicion because the same apartment building burned yesterday afternoon. nobody was injured in either fire. five people walked away with only minor injuries after the brakes on a dump truck apparently failed just before plowing into 13 other vehicles in oakland. the driver told investigators he couldn't stop his truck wh

was because president obama unnecessarily raised the temperature himself on this question of islam phobia by jumping in on the issue of a ground zero mosque unnecessarily. he raised the temperature and that's why pastor jones is important because he fits that larger narrative of an america tilted towards it. chris: this week as you followed the events leading up to this, as it got to the end of the week, there was no mention of the mosque or his associates down there and then people like sarah palin came out and john boehner, the republican leader, they threw out that connection. >> that's a very important point. let's don't forget here that the press, and the media in general bear some responsibility here by running so hard with this story so early and putting such comments as you just said not only on the air but high on the airplane, we have a lot to answer for in this as well and i think we've all learned thsomeing out of this. the message, if we consider, if we allow the air to get out that we think all muslims are enemies then we're going to have them all as enemies. we have to be v

and there is growing islam-phobia in this country. how else would you describe the fact that mosques around the country are now being attacked? we're americans, too. we're treated and talked about today as if american and muslims are not americans. we are americans. we are doctors, we are investment bankers, taxi drivers, we are storekeepers, we are lawyers. we are part of the fabric of america. and the way that america today treats its muslims is being watched by over 1 billion muslims worldwide. and the battleground today is not between islam and the west. the battleground has been moderates of all faith traditions in all the countries of the world, against the radicals of all faith traditions in all parts of the world. >> there's a pastor, pastor jones in florida. what would have happened if the pastor had gone ahead and burned the korans? >> it would have created a disaster in the muslim world. it would have strengthened the radicals. it would have enhanced the possibility of terrorist acts against america and american interests.

. >> i grew up with all these phobias.icnic, if you remember four years ago, we're all sliding on the wet lawn. i had to go home. we didn't even show. i went out when it rained, i left. >> forecast, no rain. >> i'll be at the party. my father was right, who sits out in the rain. >> you go to the concession stand. >> not all of us want to be carried out after a six pack. anyway -- >> you don't get emergency room room -- beers. >> people think i pick on jackie. i am making jackie. when she's working in l.a., or new york, she's going to say, it was this old guy in san francisco who made me a personality rather than just no toss, no verbal toss back to the anchor. i have made you jackie. we're missing the a's, and the excitement. cahill got his 17th win. a's now are seven backup texas with 12 to go. they win over the white sox, 7-2. no question, mike singletary. this guy, he keeps saying i want to players to be the story. hall of fame player, full of personality, when he's a linebacker and today at the press conference. he tal

because what they see on their campuses and, you know, in their hometowns is a rising level of islamic phobia. >> reporter: the various projects are intended to be proactive against radicalism, but they've also provoked controversy. several outsiders have accused the campaigns and their leaders of not being tough enough against extremism while some muslims fear it can give the feeling the problem is bigger than it is. >> some people said before you get going on tht, make sure it doesn't portray us all as being so-called radicalized, that's a danger as well. >> reporter: some have accused bray of perpetuating this. >> they say there's no problem, everything is just fine. well, everything is not just fine. >> reporter: american muslim leaders say their young people, like young people of all faiths, are trying to figure out their identities. and the leaders say, religion should a cultural relevant part of the x. islam a religion that has a book that is supposed to be universal and supposed to apply at different times. therefore, it's our responsibility to interpret the principles from the koran

about questioning the rise of islam phobia in the united states. >> those international reports do include statements by secretary of state clinton and general david petraeus calling the gainsville event disgraceful and dangerous to american troops. at leeflt in the united states, muslims say they're reassured by the response from the majority of americans. >> two days ago, before all of these statements surfaced, we were all very scared. and very nervous. it was very uncertain. >> today, there was a promise this show of solidarity would only grow, and that religious extremism shoulding denounced rad regardless of the source. >> i think that he's dividing rather than binding people together. >> one of the counter demonstrations planned here for the bay area is called a celebration of diversity of. people awful faiths encouraged to gather here at santa clara county administration building on friday, start agent 5:00. abc 7 news. >> and thank you very much. secretary of state clinton is strongly urging the pastor to reconsider the plans. >> it's regrettable a pastor in florida with a church

warner: meanwhile here in the west we're seeing the rise of what some would call a new kind of islam-phobia. in europe bans on wearing minarets or wearing the veil. here right in new york this furor over an islamic center being built near ground zero. what do you think is going on there? do you think the gulf between the two civilizations is actually widening? >> no, i don't think so. but i think what is going on is that this extremism is producing its own reaction. right? and what political leaders have got to do is to try and make sense of that . in my view the only basis on which you make sense of it is to say this is not a battle between islam and the west. it is a battle, however, between those with a modern view of the world in which people of different faiths peacefully co-exist together and those in whatever religion who don't. you know, it's an interesting thing, this. but the reaction to this extremism, which is producing its own form of, as you say, islam-phobia in certain parts of the world and europe. this is an issue that is like wild fire through european politics. what it is

. >> it brought back the topic of islamic-phobia and that has muslims feeling nervous.he reverend jones says besides death threats and pressure to call off the book burning he's also gotten a lot of encouragement. >> 6:02. five people recovering from minor injuries after the brakes on a dump truck apparently failed just before it plowed into 13 other vehicles in oakland. the driver told investigators he couldn't stop the truck while exiting from eastbound interstate 580 on the grand avenue off-ramp at mcarthur boulevard. the truck first crushed a honda and shoved it into other vehicles yesterday afternoon. the driver expressed regret after what happened. >> and hope i can get ahold of people who got hurt. at least say i can say sorry, something, anything. i didn't do it on purpose, you know. but that ruined their day big-time you know. >> i think that everybody is really lucky. i think we're fortunate there was nobody in the backseat of the honda or in some of the other vehicles. i think we were very lucky. >> the truck driver didn't want to give his last name. he's bee

some homo phobia, some sense on the part of the people who live here that people come to halloween to gawk and make fun that should not be acceptable anywhere in the city. >> people come to the castro for halloween because its the castro. they come for the people watching and the party holding a concert elsewhere in the city will not lure people away. >> its tough because i remember the days when we tried to have halloween at the civic center and said to anybody who was thinking about coming, don't come to the castro go to civic center. i checked out civic center and the castro and there were more people in the castro than at civic center. people didn't want to go to civic center. it was not a venue where people were ready to party. >> what i think we need to do is scale it down by closing off the entry points. charge a fee based on whether you are wearing a costume and make it free for the neighborhood. you can turn it into a parade like in los angeles and new york city. obviously increasing police throughout the crowd and not just on the out skirts would make a huge difference. >> t

. >> pirro: about and nick gillespie, do you see a rising islama phobia or a vocal minority. >> it is not even a minority. when you look at somebody like terry jones. he is a nut case who has a constituency of essentially zero people. what has he got, maybe 50 people in his flock. there are, i think, people's reaction over the 9/11 mosque as it is called or ground zero mosque is more complicated. but even that has more to do with the proximity to ground zero. and i would offer this up. when you look at the number of hate crimes that are attributed to anti-islamic sentiment, it's way down from where it was in 2001. and there's no sign that there is going to be an uptick of that i think that americans have actually processed 9/11 pretty well in the same way that they have processed a lot of other natural and man-made disasters. what we see here, i think, coming up in a lot of this stuff is more anxiety about the lack of leadership in america. i mean when you look at somebody like barack obama and i'm not picking on him. i think the republicans were terrible, you know, when their time in

but the reality is, i haven't seen islam phobia significantly and he's using it as a crutch to avoid the reality of the false lens of the spiritual narcissism that he's thr-g through -- he's looking through. bill: is that also the rely that americans need to move the moving because the site would incyte muslims overseas and incyte more violence there and here at home? >> bill, that's just another crutch, in that it also shows that the purview in that this person, this imam, is not a leader, is not somebody of moral courage, in that we don't negotiate with terrorist, we don't determine what is or is not hallowed ground or areas we come together as americans, not as a point of what we want to put forth as muslims and then say oh, we're going to be afraid of the terrorists. i mean, we stand for principles and true rists aren't afraid what happens as a result. we'll deal with it, the military will deal with it, but we don't bow to threats of violence and that's the message he should be issuing ago a muslim leader. bill: appreciate your perspective. doctor, thank you for being with us thi
