within the three-year window, the fear is can the oil production from southern iraq be sustained?oing forward, i think this issue about investment in new place,ion does not take the hope for increasing iraqi emerge as, it may not quickly. iraq, the northern kurdish people have plans to via their own pipeline into turkey. this is a scope for this production being delayed. that will also have an impact on iraqiraqi -- on planned production. >> a bigger macro picture, u.s., there is no structural problem with supply. is that fair to say? you have the bombs and moments of agitation, supply is plentiful and will go on to be plentiful. produced fromo be unstable areas, perhaps no one could -- oil production has collapsed. no one has anticipated the isis would gain a foothold in iraq. mineare the elements that lead to that oil being disturbed. if it is disturbed, saudi arabia would be able to make up some shortfall. world has,that the if there is an additional outage, it is very small. as a consequence, that feeds into prices. we have a current situation where the markets can cope with l

that 90% of the oil is produced in southern iraq. >> i think most of the oil production is in southern iraq. that is not necessarily under threat. we are not going to see a number of production lost. been a longer-term story about the future supply growth and whether it can deliver. >> what you are seeing is a lot of hype lines. >> act in march the main pipeline through turkey was bombed. we have already lost those supplies. in terms of incremental loss there is not that much left in the north to go. >> when we talk about political risk, mario draghi can see that we don't know how to assess this yet. how on earth do they accommodate risk?is deal political pay so much attention because there is uncertainty. how much momentum does the world economy have? withstand will it geopolitical risk? a less positive one geopolitical risk could slow things down. >> let's talk about serviceable capacity. where is it? let's talk about serviceable spare capacity. ?here does it come from >> that's a good point. talks about unexpected ability to meet increases. need -- we have probably got one million o

you can expect them to react by letting the water out, which would flood southern iraq.re's also the question of what sort of support does isis have clandestine cells inside the united states? homeland security people have told me that they're everywhere and it's a major concern in washington. so it's not going to be as simple as using pinpoint strikes to drive this group back. >> hearing what you said about the dam, we have talked about this before and it's sort of questionable who has, you know, control of the dam in any given moment. but i mean, the fact is, if they use this hydroelectric dam, right there in mosul, second-largest city of iraq, can we just talk about even that potential damage? i mean, what would that do as far as foes you mosul is concerned, but also baghdad? >> well, i talked to somebody today who studied this. he had been cia and they looked at this and saddam built that dam so if it did let its water out, it would largely bypass foes and you wimosul and hit th. especially in southern iraq take out the religious cities like car balancea and kill a l

the remains were first discovered in 1930 in what is now southern iraq, but sat in storage in the museum's basement ever since. they were found in an unmarked box only after the museum started digitizing its collection and couldn't account for the item. >> sreenivasan: returning now to the crisis in ukraine. for more perspective about what options the united states and its western allies have to deal with the russian military intervention there, we are joined now via skype from westport, massachusetts, by nicholas burns. he is a former undersecretary of state and now a professor at the harvard kennedy school of government. thanks for joining us. so what should the west's role be here? what's the appropriate balance between diplomacy and military action? >> well, hari, this is a major turning point in the crise because president putin has now put russian soldiers, russian mechanized equipment over the border into ukraine. they've encircled the ukrainian military and turned the tide of this law in an outright violation of international law. i think the west has three options ahead of it and

they were swamping southern iraq with ngo's, basically, dealing with welfare. it was well known, and the british were tolerating it because nobody could do anything about it, and it actually serves a purpose -- feeding, clothing, so forth. 8000 troops in southern iraq is not a lot, so they needed a certain amount of help. what was interesting was the iranians moved in with alacrity. they moved in a new how to manage. britisho say to the that what they created for iran was a utopia because you guys have come in there and said, "we want to change the system." the iranians look at the mess and say, "brilliant. this is what we have always worked with, and we will come in and operate the system just as we always have. we know how to manage chaos. you guys at the end of the day are going to get frustrated and leave, but we have moved in and are going to do the job." they are doing i would not say a perfect job, but a reasonably good job, and the british were acutely aware that if there is is sort of uprising in the south, they are going to be in a lot of difficulty,

perhaps what's more pressing is the extent to which oil supply in southern iraq could be affected by events. and i suppose in the initial take is that isis is not affecting production from the area, but we've seen in the past week a dispute between the current prime minister and the -- shall i say the prime minister a fellow. and the conflict within the community based in june, clearly concerned around that supply starts to grow. but at the moment, i don't have concerns about production from southern iraq. >> let's switch from the supply side to the demand side. the iea lowering its global oil demand growth once again and it's interesting, in one of its previous reports it talked about a pick up of demand coming from china in the second half of the year. at what point are we seeing upgrades to the global demand growth? >> there are seasonalities towards demand. in the second half, we should expect oil demand to increase quarter to quarter. we should require that to increase production which is willing and able to do so. we often look at things as a year on year. and what this report

reporting no disruptions in iraqi oil supplies because the fighting is in northern iraq and not in southern iraq. production is limited in the il fields are in the south. stock markets are rattled by the conflict in iraq and the situation in the ukraine. and russian sanctions and counter sanctions and fighting between israel and palestinians in gaza. and the dow industrial before today were down 700 points, a four percent drop since their high a few weeks ago, 17,000. and that had left the dow down one percent for the year to date. but the broader s&p 500 and the tech heavy nasdaq are still up for the year and we are seeing stocks rebound nicely today on comments out of russia and suggesting that perhaps tensions may be easing there. one analyst worries that all of the turmoil overseas may start to hurt the global economy. >> for the financial markets tis thorough that geo political crisis don't have much of an impact and there is a risk now with crisis in ukraine and middle east and iraq and isis. this will erode confidence in consumers and b in western europe soften the economies. and so net,

security agents in philadelphia created an undercover business to lure an iranian arms dealer from southern iraq into southern iran so the republic of georgia, to the capital. the iranian, the sole customer was the iranian government with sophisticated radar, computers and gyroscopes capable of firing missiles. american law enforcement had things like this for many years but they never caught someone in this way. something always went wrong. the book uses the background of shakespeare's thing to describe systematic efforts by the iranians, chinese, pakistani summon with koreans to acquire american made technology. the most lethal weapons are not necessarily the big ones but small ones, small enough to be smuggled inside a package of chewing gum. microchips and gyroscopes, night vision and technology. i have one right here. i am sure you can barely see it but this is an actual microchip from operation shakespeare. this is exactly what the iranian was trying to acquire. it is smaller than a fingernail but a few string a bunch of them together and pinpoint aircraft in the sky you can use it in rada

geo political risk analysis says this is a group of people who can't even defeat the sunnis in southern iraqnd yet, the level of threat that they present has been so overstated, you have jim doing a local interview in oklahoma city, senator saying they're going to attack an american city, a major american city, this is a scare tactic. yes, we have to confront it, deal with it but usually words like evil and revving people up is exactly what the terrorists want us to do and it's the reaction we had after 9/11 that didn't surface well. we said we're going to defeat evil, we're going to defeat terror then. how good of a job have we done? >> jim, they did manage to, you know, overrun iraqi military installations, steal american equipment that we left there for the iraqi army. >> you're right. they're quite -- i think they're quite a threat. the idea they might have some of these surface to air missiles, hand held things that shoots in airliners alone gives us a real urgency. listen. if you take alan's point, to say that we need a measured, thoughtful response to isis, you might even look at the

so our base of operation in southern iraq continues to receive children who are displaced from these s in northern iraq. and we're doing everything we can with the iraqi government and with partners at international children's heart foundation and others to provide assistance to these children as much as we can. so what we need is ongoing support. it's not enough to just have hashtag campaigns and letters to the white house and air drops for people on the mountain. this is a much wider, more chronic situation that affects all of the country in many ways. >> jeremy, we thank you so much for your willingness to do work there. and we hope and pray you'll continue to have the support that you need as these folks are really in life-or-death situations. thank you for sharing your story. >> thank you so much. >> for more on this, former governor mike huckabee. he has a new series of animated films for children out called "one nation under god." governor, welcome. good to see you. >> thank you, shannon. great to be here. >> how concerned are you at this? it's at a flashpoint in iraq right now

that controls -- if they let the water out, possibly flooding other areas of iraq, southern iraq, it'sn electricity generator. it's a big issue. >> the united states did so much to shatter the iraqi state dee baathification. now it's making a kind of fetish of the composition of the iraqi government. basically, who cares. the grit of the iraqi government, i don't know what that map quite shows, but how far does the grit of the iraqi government run beyond the suburbs of baghdad? the country is falling apart and we ought to pick a sliver of it and make it as large a sliver as we can, as charms says, by supporting the kurds. >> for this administration, the key goal was to get out of iraq and to stay out of iraq. and so they are probably having a really hard time getting back in. >> i like to say, we fumbled our way in and fumbled our way out and now the president is trying to be as disengaged as he can. and he can't be disengaged with this. the trouble is whether or not to order air strikes and drops. and whether there should be more support, arms for the kurds. i wonder if that's what ch

isis may do an end-around, around baghdad and southern iraq. and drive south into saudi arabia. that's where some 40% of the world's oil production comes out of if they drive into saudi arabia, that oil wealth there, that oil power there, that's a big deal. remember, saudi arabia is the center of global. islam obviously is the site of mecca. >> obviously it prompted at least, according to reports, the united emirates, team up and bomb suspected isis positions in syria. obviously if brought together, groups that wouldn't normally be doing things together, can they stop this? or do we really have to go into -- >> i think, number one, we have go after their money, absolutely. that's complex. we can do it. look at turkey and qatar. we supplied them with $16 billion of arms. qatar has been helping to finance ice is over the past few years. supposed u.s. ally. also, turk write. look, some of this oil black market that ice sis involved in comes through southern turkey. turk write is a nato ally. let's put pressure on them. let's form a coalition in the region. look, isis has big plans.

attempt to increase its activity and it is in places like northwest syria, southern air whack -- southern iraq and lebanon. i was talking to some people from indonesia. they are very concerned about isis and their ideology but its presence and recruitment in indonesia. isis will be tested on its ability to hold areas now under its control while attempting to also expand its territory. at the end of the day, the peoples of the region, obviously like syria, iraq lebanon and the gulf states have the primary challenge and responsibility to deal with what are primarily their problems. however, a substantial international commitment and involvement by the u.s. in concert with allies is also needed. as president obama considers new strikes, the white house has begun a diplomatic campaign to enlist allies and neighbors in the region to increase the oppositionserious rather late but in any case -- in some cases to provide support to military operations. tothe long run, if we wish break the cycle of global terrorism whether it is isis or other movements in the future, notes and aler piece on avenging ja

if you are talking about arming some of the shia factions within baghdad and within southern iraq, yes. there are significant risks to that. if you are talking about arming some of the sunni tribes out west, sure. there's certainly some major concerns there. but the kurds have been our greatest friends in the region for close to 30 years. this is part of iraq that we did not lose a single u.s. troop over the continue years we were at war. they love america there. they see us as the people that protected them from saddam hussein in the early 1990s. they credit us with their freedom and the semblance of democracy they have in that region. >> at the same time, they are making a bid for separatism when we're desperately trying to hold iraq together. >> they are and they are not. the president of iraq is a kurd. they are still playing a role in the formation of this new government. but i think they are looking to the exits. i think most of us would february you see tbe if you see the way this country is falling apart. >> the fraught history of our arming factions on the ground, there's a lo

i think from an energy point of view, going into southern iraq, is of concern? apparently there was a c-130 with military equipment, it wasn't disclosed who provided that, but there needed so they can defend themselves. >> not a limited air campaign, but a systematic one. i need to fly in some -- heavy artillery that's poised to take a shot at ishil. thirdly, turkey has a major financial stake. all oil flows through turkey. turkey originally supported the islamic state. it's time they redeem themselves by joining the campaign and helping to eliminate them. we need to work this from a security angle as well as diplomatically so that the commercial investment we have in iraqi kurdistan doesn't go down the drain. >> michelle, can we have confidence this will not lead to u.s. involvement on the ground? boots on the ground, as the president has said? >> i don't think there's any political will for that, and i think we live in a country that remembers the last time there was a humanitarian crisis, say, in somalia, we went in and that worked out very, very badly, and a

and you're seeding the shiite portions in southern iraq to iranian control. that's not a good outcome. that's the last thing we want. i'm actually agnostic about how many states there ought to be in the territory of iraq. the kurdish regime, for example, is a really stable, moderate, prosperous government, which i would be fine having that as a separate government. but however many regimes there are in the territory of iraq, we need to make sure none of them is a sponsor of terrorism, none of them is a regime that commits genocide in the way that isis has been committing against the yazidis and christians. that's the real issue. it's not how many governments there are but the nature of those regimes. right now the nature of the isis regime should be utterly unacceptable to civilized world. >> max boot, thank you very much for sharing your thoughts with us. up next, the isis threat overseas. how concerned should america be? , revolutionary by every standard. and that became our passion. to always build something better, airplanes that fly cleaner and farther on

so when it was apparent that isis was not just threatening southern iraq but was actually moving to advanceo kurdish regions, that really crossed the line from a u.s. strategic perspective. i think we see the air strikes being conducted to really keep the islamic state out of kurdistan and protect that region, which is really one of the only safe havens left in that very tumultuous region, including housing hundreds of refugees first from syria and now from iraq. i think the shift had to do with where isis had its sights on and kurdistan just really presented a red line for the united states. >> indeed. all right. thank you very much for being here. >> thank you. >>> all right. now, three things to know this monday. three missionaries who worked with patients infected with the ebola virus in liberia have been brought to the united states. they'll be kept in quarantine for at least three weeks. among them, david writebol, the husband of nancy writebol. >>> then, the attorney general of new york is slapping barney's with a $525,000 fine. the luxury retailer came under fire after allegations o

the terrorists have their eye on vast oilfields in southern iraq, kuwait and saudi arabia. that is a financial threat to everyone. defense secretary check hegel says isis is, quote, beyond anything we have seen before, worse than al qaeda but the plan is containment. the terrorists are clearly a security threat. texas governor rick perry says they can come through the porous southern border legally of 1,000 american passport holders among the isis fighters. today wall street is apparently obsessed with the federal reserve. we will concentrate on the threat to your money and your life. "varney and company" is about to begin. ♪ stuart: listen to this. this is what defense secretary check cable set about isis. >> beyond a terrorist group. they mary ideology, sophistication of strategic and tactical military prowess, they are tremendously well funded. this is beyond anything we have seen. we must prepare for everything. stuart: colonel oliver north is with us. if isis is so bad, such a threat, why don't we have a plan to get out there and kill them? >> everybody else has up pla

they have their eye on southern iraq which has 3 million barrels of oil a day. they have their eye on saudi arabia. 10 million barrels of oil a day. they must be stopped and it is a financial necessity that they are stopped. >> reporter: how have the oil markets been in recent days and weeks? just this continued u.s. military action, the potential, general dempsey saying we are going to probably have 0 go into syria. >> reporter: you could say there is a financial premium being paid by consumers. the price of a barrel of crude is $93. many people say it's a matter of supply and demand right now. nothing to do with the threat of isis elsewhere. it could be $10 cheaper than that. so you are seeing some input into the price of oil from this isis threat. it has implications for dough dc energy as well. why don't we build the keystone pipeline and bring candace oil into america. why'expand drilling on federal lands for oil. why not expand fracking for natural gas and oil especially in new york and california. expand domestic production to make up for a lack of oil fr

in the southern part of iraq you have two different ethnic groups, religious groups fighting each other for 1300 years. that's not going to change. what it is going to take is an extremely strong leader in baghdad. that isn't going to happen any time soon. even though al malaki decided to back away from the statements he made a couple of days ago. about threatening the stability from inside baghdad, sending tanks into oh the green zone and all the rest of that stuff. expect there will be continued constitutional challenge to permit him to continue to role. that will be a mess and will take time to resolve. >> blood thirsty strong man. that was hussein. >> that's what we had. >> thank you. appreciate the time. coming up, racial turmoil outside of st. louis. how does this most recent shooting of an unarmed black man square with the claim by some lawmakers that we are witnessing a war on whites. plus, president obama reportedly used a two sill billion compound word beginning with horse about his criticism not to arm rebels before hillary clinton began separating herself from his foreign po

we need to recognize the fact that iran has taken over the southern part of iraq. and then isolate isis in the middle. and then deal with isis which is a global threat and much like al qaeda. >> a partitioned iraq is one that's been discussed throughout the course of the iraq war. and it was similarly rejected. why was it okay for all those years and why is it okay from your perspective? >> well i'm a realist, shep. the reality is at the end of world war ii the western world came together. we drew lines we said that's country "a," that's country "b," that's country "c." we're now at a point with the internet and connection that's have gone on and 2,000 years of sectarian warfare throughout the region with sunni versus shia, the reality is there's a sectarian divide of sunni versus shia. we can try to put all the duct tape we can around syria and iraq and egypt and what goes on and on. while we recognize we're in the middle of a clash in islam of sunni versus shias. and this notion of trying to put together a nation state is just a fool apparent. >> so do we just ge

where a lot of the oil is or if they take baghdad or try to wear again that controls the southern oil regions of iraq or if they move on jordan which is considered a strategic asset the u.s. will view it as a threat to the west east will be islamic state is a reactionary awful organization but why is it in existence why did it get strong because the us fueled arms into the civil war in syria fueling arms to that same entity and of course the us fractured iraq allowing this group to grow three years ago they had six military operations just six and now they're a dynamic military force again as a consequence perhaps the unintended consequence but the consequence nonetheless of u.s. policy in iraq that has shredded that country as a national entity well the u.s. now says it's doing its best to try to make amends for that it's just cut in its fifth strike is it there because of the oil wells or because of the he wanted tarion crisis ribbit bugs. well we can see the islamic state has carried out executions mass executions in syria and in other parts of iraq that by itself did not generate a u.s. military

personnel in baghdad and also recognizing that in sen tram and southern iraq, that the shiite communitiesave also suffered at the hands of the group that calms itself the islam imstate or isil or isis that he had -- because there have already come accusations from she yshia saying yuram canning to the aid. how about us? we need help, too. a balancing act. very important to put emphasis on forming a unity government in iraq. recognizing that u.s. force on the ground alone cannot solve this problem, but that iraqis have to unite. it was not a resounding vote of confidence for the iraqi prime minister nuri al maliki, criticized from all different frontsds of pursuing a sectarian policy that ben fisted the shia majority here. as obama said left the suni arab mine ompty disaffected, thus leaving a ripe grounds for the isis militants to move nnd and take advantage of those angry people. i'm hearing that from kurdish officials here nap isis alone with foreign fighters who have come from syria and other arab countries aren't alone leading the military offensive. that a number of arab tribesmen ha

the dam itself provides hydroelectric power for the southern part of iraq.s strategically important. getting rid of isis from that is also relatively easy. all we would have to do is target both ends. but so far we haven't done that. >> is it most effective to continue using drone strikes, or are we going to have to step it up? >> a little bit of both. continuing to use drone strikes, good idea. where we find mortars, platoons of troops and assembly areas, we will target them with drones. at the end of the day, we won't be able to get rid of isis unless and until the iraqi army can control that terrain. that means they have to be there in numbers. they have to be properly trained. they have to stay there. so far there doesn't seem to be any of that. >> what to you the hear from your contacts in the military? do they want to go in and get these guys? >> oh, sure. they always want to saddle up and get into the action. but at the end of the day, sending troops in there will be good tactically. but strategically the only thing that makes any sense is to go there

you have gaza, ukraine, the southern border, now iraq. do you get a sense from inside the white house that they're scrambling and there's panic, or do you get the sense that they're execute something sort of strategy, whatever that is? >> reporter: i'm not sure they're executing a strategy. when we were pressuring josh earnest on, okay, if the president's -- vision he laid out last night was the american government can't turn a blind eye if there's a potential genocide or mass slaughtered of people involving 40,000 people, say, in iraq in this case, over 175,000 have been killed in syria, and we didn't launch air strikes. we haven't launched a military campaign. he said, well, each is different. in that case, i get that not everything is the same. but if you have a guiding principle like that, why does it apply to iraq and not syria, for example? and so i don't think there is a str -- strategy tying this together. he's going vacation. he's bringing two top security aides to stay in the loop, but you're right. he's got a lot of national se

they take over the southern half of iraq because we find that their allies in the war against bush areaside who is now funding to fight sunday. that is israel and israel alone. that is espionage. the young for control it cannot be arrested. president obama that's american foreign policy. involuntary manslaughter, the basic case of involuntary manslaughter is a three-pronged test. somebody died as a result of reckless action number two. number three the person who took affectless action that was reckless and could result in death at the time. these are the three opponents of involuntary manslaughter. leaving no security anywhere in the vicinity and area where we run for two serious through turkey in an area where "the new york times" reported here before it the entire time was had by all sharia. behind the terrorist attack until chris stevenson three other americans. who is responsible for that? hillary clinton is guilty of involuntary manslaughter. she shouldn't be worried about whether she goes to the white house. she should be worried about whether she goes to the big house. unfortun
