there were chinese workers, there were many french, there were chileans. there were what were routinely called the sonoran's, which was spanish-speaking mexicans. there were english, you name it. but in a calamity, they put aside their differences, which were serious, to survive, and a think that is one of the great hallmarks, one of the most positive aspect of the culture. >> i have a question about the gold miners, but first, regarding the flood, i was totally ignorant of this because i have not done enough reading. the amazing devastation of the size of these floods and the rain. has there been anything like 1862? nce was this really once in a century or once in several centuries? mr. noy: this is considered the most unique storm in california history. the only storm that comes close was a couple of years before the gold rush at the time of the donner party, there was massive and the relief crew that went up to get the donner party actually was able to get there quicker because sacramento valley was flooded, and they were able to rowboats closer to the

were related. and now it does appear as though it was the same people that apparently went through -- went across london bridge, then at some point stopped the van, went into the borough market and went on there on their rampage there. >> and there was a third reported incident at vauxhall -- >> that turned out to be nothing. that was actually also a stabbing incident but apparently not related in any way, shape, or form to the attacks here. >> thanks very much, fred pleitgen, our senior international correspondent following this story. an eyewitness named jack applebee is a restaurant owner near london bridge. he described the rampage as it unfolded. >> i have a few friends. it was a little bit crazy. some people just kept running down the street. this one girl started saying they're stabbing everyone, they're stabbing people. i literally just turned back around. i said everyone to the back. trying to keep it as quick as we can. and literally everyone got up off their seat, rushed them all to the

the police were slow to respond. the police say they were there quickly.road accident because there was confusion when the van initially went off the road, but as we were hearing from our eyewitnesses the van was speeding up and so it became clear that it was and so it became clear that it was an incident that did not seem to be an incident that did not seem to be an accident. it was deliberate and there were reinforcements sent to there were reinforcements sent to the scene. the person who died in the scene. the person who died in the attack was someone who was being looked after by a crowd of people who had gathered. they were in the streets after breaking the ramadan fast and they saw a man who was struggling on the floor. it seemed he had a heart attack and they were helping him and he is the person who has died. at least ten others have been injured. well, i'm joined by two more guests. would you mind just introducing yourself. hussain. were you there last night? did you see what happened ? you there last night? did you see what happened? i heard the

children were allowed to take cash pic -- pick who their parts were. but the process was still controlled through the rituals of courtship in the 19th century. that evolved in the 20th century into dating. young people have more independence in how they pick their partners, but rules and regulations still apply. today we have evolved to hooking up. this is common on many college campuses. hillsl do understand what dating is, but maybe you could explain it to me. large herds of young men and women get together, drinking excessively, and then fornicate, that is what the process of dating and courtship have devolved into. likewise, the family form, the traditional, prehistoric family unit was the tribe. over the course of time was reduced to the extended family, several generations related by kin. in the victorian period, this was the nuclear family. over the course of the 20th century, this devolves into single parents or groups that are not just a nuclear family, but a subatomic family. there may be any combination of children in the same household. it

when i was down there, there were at least three people who were injured because we were g being emergency services getting through. there were three seriously injured but there were actually more but just a number i can say for sure there were three. >> and what more can you tell me about the crowd outside that you were interacting with when you got out there? where did they come from? you said there had been some kind of a prayer event going on nearby and people were just exiting that? >> yeah, so the mosque is one of the biggest houmosques, there i big community there and there wereple there for prayer. there were a lotf people i think had come out from prayer but also people like myself who live on the street who had come down to see what was happening, to see what's happened to our neighbors and the crowd was very mixed ages, women, children, a lot of young adults and adults. women crying. lots of people panicking. there was a lot of shouting in arab arabic, so i can't tell you what was being said from the people shouting in english, there was a lot of agitation, people wanted to get

some were undocumented. for that reason, it is hard to get at them using normal government sources because they were specifically trying to evade being detected in some cases, so i like to your sources that were written by syrian migrants, things like diaries, personal letters, personal papers. newspapers are a really great source. enlistment reports or passport documents. thesehemera or paperwork syrian migrants carried on their person during the war, i try to collect those things and put them in conversation with one another. >> has it been difficult to find those sources? >> it is not easy. i was supposed to be doing dissertation research in syria when the war began, and it was sort of an approach i took in order to confront the reality that i could not do my research in the middle east at this present moment. i have had to sort of build my own archive by finding the manuscripts and sometimes speaking with families to find out what kind of papers they have stashed in the attic, right? and it is very rewar

you were very close, as you were saying, very close, as you were saying, very close to the van and iteed would you say? something around 40 mph to 50 mph, could have been more than that. initially when i saw the van i thought it was a drunk driver.|j think you took some pictures, some video of the van. described what you filmed? once the van had crossed the pavement where it was driving at the time, the men began to get out of the vehicles and at that point i stopped beside one of the casualties on the bridge, the person was com pletely on the bridge, the person was completely unconscious and wasn't breathing at the time. i saw people had already attended to him. there we re had already attended to him. there were about four serious casualties on the bridge. then i went towards the van to see what was going on there. when i got to the van i saw there. when i got to the van i saw the doors were open and i saw server all open bottles of alcohol. —— several. whoever was driving at the timejumped several. whoever was driving at the time jumped down towards the borough market down the step

were still a threat.e controlled explosions as they searched buildings. once again, terror has torn through the election campaign, and the prime minister has been forced to confront some of the toughest issues. our country has made significant progress in disrupting plots and protecting the public. but it is time to say enough is enough. everybody needs to go about their lives as they normally would. our society should continue to function in accordance with our values. but when it comes to taking on extremism and terrorism, things need to change. democracy has been interrupted for the second time in a fortnight, as politicians attended an emergency cabinet committee meeting with security officials. london's mayor describe a city wounded but resolute. my message to londoners and visitors to our great city is to be calm and vigilant today. you will see an increased police presence today, including armed officers and uniformed officers. there is no reason to be alarmed by this. we are the safest global city

they were merciless. a second lieutenant said in my opinion, zero fighter has been far underestimated, probably one of the best fighters. as for ours, they should be left in miami at the training co-. captain albuquerque armstead said the f2-a is outclassed for the japanese fighters. although they were aware of it, they drove home their attacks with skill. the pilots still had to make a treacherous navigation back to their carrier and they were fighting darkness and japanese planes. 1st ensign austin discovered a single japanese fighter persistently tailing his svd. he looked over at him and gave merrill a chilling grin. he could see, it was hopeless for me, he throttled back to the kill zone where the four planes were intersected. merrill's plane was in no condition to fight back and wounding merrill's gunner. desperate to get away, merrill dived into a bank of clouds. the japanese pilot followed but overshot his position. he watched from his hiding spot. for miles the japanese pilot flew to spot his cou

but what we were potentially dealing with, what the officers were faced with mark were people who werede bombers. therefore officers had to make split—2nd in those very difficult circumstances and decided to shoot the people. what would the response of being to restaurant owners? we hear of cores that many restau ra nt owners? we hear of cores that many restaurant owners were keeping civilians inside to keep them safe. then we were told that many people we re then we were told that many people were told to run, to doorway with hands on their heads to identify themselves. the difficulty is that in the immediate aftermath of any incident like this there is confusion. it is difficult to pin down confusion. it is difficult to pin d own exa ctly confusion. it is difficult to pin down exactly what has happened and in this case exactly how many people we re in this case exactly how many people were involved stop so although people may have seen three people with knives that could have been more people and therefore the police we re more people and therefore the police were quite concerned for

were a little bit more battle ready than we were -- they noticed that their ships were all great.isplacement and freeboard increased. that means ships got bigger. americans had a tendency to design ships that were kind of low to the water because we were in coastal defense. if you're not going out too far in the big blue ocean, kind of kind of good gun platform, but they were terrible out on the high seas. we learned that we should build bigger ships that should sit on the water a little bit higher. the other thing i will just note in passing is many of you know the great white fleet gets home in 1909. dreadnought was launched in 1906. none of these ships were dreadnoughts. they are actually obsolete by .he time they got home some of them saw a little bit of action escalating convoys during the first world war, but in general, they never saw action. reorganization of the navy -- this is the slide where i would like to spend a little time talking about that problem that i brought up to you about 20 minutes ago. we've got a secretary of the navy. we got this navy that is growing and

these were a group of muslims who were targeted because they were muslims, again, that's what these eyewitnesss> that seems to be the signs we're getting from authorities. ian lee reporting live from the scene, we'll come back to you very soon. >> i read the statement that the council will put up a short while ago. he used the word to describe the context in which this took place. >> in the uk, it's getting it. but we have -- it's about two miles from where i live and i pray the last few days ago. the reports are that it is deliberate attack and it's true. >> yes, and that use to be what prime minister theresa may has indicated is saying that the police are looking at this potential terrorist attack. it has been some time. but they indicated and of course they have to be very careful in the aftermath of an incident like this, talk to us about your concerns going forward if, indeed, this is confirmed to be this, which seems to be all the indications now that the counter terrorism command is investigating this. . i think from it and many in the evening which runs into midnight and often after mid

there were at least three people who were injured because we were being pushed back. so they could get emergency services through. but i think tlmp more. that's just a number i can say for sure. >> what more can you tell me e about the crowd that was outside that you were interacting with when you got out there? where did they come from? there had been a prayer event that was going on nearby and people were just exiting that? >> e yes, it's one of the biggest in the u.s. it's a private community and people were there for prayer. i was on my way home and there were a lot of people who had come out from prayer, but also citizen who is live on the street who had come out to see what was happening. z and the women and children and a lot of young adults and adults, women crying, a lot of people panicking. there was a lot of shouting in arabic, so i can't tell you exactly what was being said. some of the people, there were sho shouting. people wanted to get closer and the police were calm, not rising to any agitation and just trying to get people back far enough to put up a

the police were calm and they recognise that people were panicked.asualties, how many people could you see? what kinds of injuries could you see? i couldn't really see much but i know there from the look of a come there seemed to be at least three people who were definitely seriously injured. people were being pushed as far back from them as possible so that the emergency services could get through. i have a feeling there were more. i imagine that if the people were friends or relatives in the area or at the mosque then there must have been people quite panicked and upset around them. exactly. there were women crying and men yelling. there was a lot of yelling in what i assume was arabic so i could not understand everything that people were shouting. i can't tell you exactly what was being said but there was definitely... there were all sorts of people, women, children, young adults outside. it was a complete mix. i'm not sure what age the victims were. we are looking at pictures of the police presence on the road. lots of police cars, from the lates

and for the students there was one particular test that they were taking in first grade they were shown their previous score and then on the other side they were shown their goal what we wanted them to get to to show that they were improving getting closer to on level. and said like this is where you are now this is where you need to be and. we were. stickers and candy and parties if you do well. on the reading tests if they stepped up to the next reading level they would be brought pizza and cake to have in the classroom with all the their watching these kids getting rewarded with their not. our culture is awash in lives dominated by streams of never ending electronic hallucinations that. fiction until they are indistinguishable we have become the most. society politics as a species of. political politicians and celebrities are to ruling parties are in reality one party for. those who attempt. to. breathless universe of fake news just signed to push through the cruelty and exploitation would be a little more are pushed so far to the margins of society including by a public broadcasting

and there were a lot of reasons why people were in suffrage. i have a powerpoint to give you images. it was a worldwide movement. this is a very famous british suffragist. there were women fighting for the boat all around the world, but the british movement was quite preeminent. you see her standing literally in front of the british lion. that is a good image because one of the reasons why men and women, too, had opposed to vote for women was, not only did they think it would make women less feminine, but they felt it would , too.ations into sissies you did not want damsels out there making those kinds of decisions. so for her to stand in front of the british lion said -- infamously began a program of civil disobedience, so women were arrested, they broke windows, they were terrorists in a way, not to the point of taking life, but they caused some damage anyone to prison for it. and he wanted to go to prison for it. so this is really the first mass demonstration movement of disobedience. withsociate this african-american civil rights, which is

i'm at london bridge in central london were six people were killed last night.on the scene. in the first incident, a van swerved onto the pavement and ploughed into pedestrians, eyewitnesses say the driver seemed to be deliberately targeting people. get down! he and two other men left the van in nearby borough market, where several people were attacked with knives. they were running in. they were going into all the pubs. i cannot remember all of them. i was saying run, run, run. police responded within eight minutes. armed officers shot dead three attackers. the suspects were wearing

were enemies. that meant they were supposed to be exempted from the draft, etc. ottomans were called neutral allies of the german enemy. this opened questions about if we could draft them. when you have 200,000 people, that is a pretty compelling people to try to expand desperate compelling reason to try to expand draft powers. there were ongoing conversations about if this group could be compelled to go to war for the united states. >> your researchers on syrian migrants. why did the syrians start being perceived as a separate group? >> i mentioned the 1890's, there is this sort of disaggregation of ottomans into turks, armenians, sephardic jews and syrian arabs. in the context of the war to be , called an ethnic turk in the context of the war was increasingly to be marked as sort of an other, and turk was simultaneously understood to be muslim. it was conflated with islam in a new way as a result of the politics of the war. this meant there were syrian arabs who were -- overwhelmingly, the syrian

the vast majority of the catholics were irish and many of the americans were protestants at that time. americans really disliked catholic immigrants because they felt that the catholics were trying to overturn america for cap society. another dimension is ethnic dime nsion, in that many anglo-americans thought that irish were inferior culturally, ethnically. finally, there was an economic argument against the irish. many of the irish immigrants arrived in the u.s. in a debilitated state. they were impoverished heavily. many of them began entering the charitable institutions. many americans thought they were abusing american welfare funded by american taxes. >> who determined if an irish immigrant would be turned away or deported? hidetaka: miley immigration officers. new york and massachusetts had their own immigration agencies who are taking care of the law enforcement. the state immigration officers impacted the condition of immigrants, and they excluded the acceptable classes. at the same time in massachusetts in particular, fed officers are limited to charitable institutions. when

called terror and people were very unwilling to move back and were very angry.t durham road, a bit further back down seven sisters road. i returned to my flat because the cordon is further along so i can enter and have access to my flat. i am watching everything unfolding from my window. about five fire engines have just pulled up. we're all feeling quite helpless and not really knowing what to do. i've just gone downstairs and helped handing out water with the food market i live on top of. other than that, we're just sitting here in waiting for information to come in. it is after midnight in london but, as you say, if this was a mosque then evening press would have happened. how busy was it? i came home about 11:30. i don't remember exactly but i know that there was the call to prayer on as i was walking down the street, and there was lots of people walking towards it. finsbury park mosque is one of the biggest mosques in europe and there is a very thriving muslim community here. so it's very active and very busy. i came home and got ready to go to bed and then

so, the pocket doors were closed, the curtains were closed, the shades were closed. we have even been told that amelia ii used to keep cardboard in between the window and the shade and the exterior to protect the shades. so she is pretty serious about keeping these rooms closed and not using them. and again they were really only , used for formal occasions. what space the family did use the most was the front reception room, which i can show you right now. and we're going to go past our friend, the suit of armor. this room was really like the casual space. you can get a feeling for the character, based on the fact that they chose to spend most of the time in this space. we have pictures of christian and amelia sitting at this table, looking at books and reading the paper, and christian in his later years used to take a nap on this couch treated full -- couch, which folded down sort of like a futon. in the later years in the 1950's , when amelia was in her final years, there was also a television in this room and she used to sit in here and watch tv. this room was whe

he did not state where the fatalities were, how many were on the bridge and how many were in borough want to bring in, quickly, jeff who is a retired fbi agent. he has investigated matters involving terrorism before. when you listen to that news conference, jeff, it seems like it doesn't quite jive. you have this huge corridor and an this they're saying all the suspects are dead. >> it's very early right now in the investigation. they have limited information. they just don't know yet. they did give a good preview. they said what happened, is responsible, free people, we don't know the details of the people yet they gave you, as the media and world, what they know. we can expect because the investigation is so early. trace: it's interesting because he also said they found two different what appeared to be too explosive possible jackets. they were reporting for the past couple hours that they've heard different explosions and they didn't know if those were explosive devices or if they were just distractions for police getting closer to suspects. what do you make of those explosive dev

but what we were most concerned about and what we were seeing were efforts at compromising voter registration databases. >> you said something that in my very limited time i don't want to let drop. you said you thought there is more we thought we could and should do to address this issue. can you elaborate if you are still secretary of homeland security. what would your recommend ation be? >> a number of things. one, i would as a congress think about -- i would think about grants to state election officials. to help them harden their cybersecurity. i would raise awareness among state election officials, as well as public in general. employees of state governments. raise awareness about the evils and the hazards of spear fishing. i think at a national level, there should be, in this current administration, somebody who really does take the mantle of cybersecurity on full time to highlight this issue, to lead the charge on this issue. my preference would be somebody within dhs. but we really need a national leader to take charge of this issue. but, first and foremost on the ground, we need to e

should they were people who were very very angry at him. they were the people to flock to taylor pierce with those tribes all stayed and that's where you get this. let's read the whole, the actual civil war comes from. this because of the tribe that they belong to. you know that was horrific. that's what started the whole inner liberia became famous at the time and get both the size of government soldiers and the rebels enough abducting the children of these women. and coming and turning into child soldiers and raping mothers in front of the children and then taking the children away. in that sort of thing. that was a truly horrific time for liberia. >> i was shocked also to read about how the kids were drugged. >> yes. >> switching gears, the woman that organized. >> definitely my favorite. one of my favorite parts of the book. because you know you always see the market women. and so, knowing how they you know there's one part in the book where their organizing separate. she is going about doing a traditional campaign and they are doing th

they were unclear where those shots were coming from. we do know that that was capitol hill returning fire at the gunman. brianna? >> rene marsh, thank you so much for that. i'm here with a republican from washington state. not only that, you were the former sheriff of king county, washington, one of the biggest jurisdictions in all of the counties. so you have the law enforcement background that you bring to thi this. what was your reaction, especially with your law enforcement background to this? >> well, you know, my first thing was shock and was hoping that everyone who was injured was going to be okay and the word that we've got so far is that these are injuries, still praying, of course, that everyone is going to recover from. and lastly, it's that thought of -- as a police officer, i would have wanted to be there to help protect people but i was so happy to hear that capitol hill police were there on the spot. no doubt in my mind that they put their lives on the line and prevented so many others from being injured or killed. >> se

and that's tisk. >> they were bringing bottles that were in a jam lately. how much longer do you feel like you'll be able to keep him safe. >> okay. well, the whole community is with you and your interesting last night. just send it to the muz lichl regime. >> thank you ve-- muslim, thank you very much indeed. >> the story that unfolded eight hours ago. let me latest on the investigation into the light there won't be update. we'll bring that to you next. be the you who doesn't cover your moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. be the you who shows up in that dress. who hugs a friend. who is done with treatments that don't give you clearer skin. be the you who controls your psoriasis with stelara® just 4 doses a year after 2 starter doses. stelara® may lower your ability to fight infections and may increase your risk of infections and cancer. some serious infections require hospitalization. before treatment, get tested for tuberculosis. before starting stelara® tell your doctor if you think you have an infection or have symptoms such as: fever, sweats, chills,

they were nervous and shouting and i could see that they were waving.d out they were waving at a police car stuck in traffic further down. and in a matter of seconds the police car came here, stopped by them and then theyjust dragged someone, pushed someone towards the police. "take him, take him!" and then the police put this man inside the car. so to be clear, the crowd, in essence, offered up this person to the police? is that right? yes. there were very nervously pushing him towards the police, telling the police officer who was confused, they did not know what had happened, so they were telling the police officers to take him, take him. so i understood that... i just found out later on there was a car running people over. i did not see what actually happened. when you say the crowd, am i right in thinking that these are people who would have been attending finsbury park mosque? i think so, because the mosque is around the next corner and they usually gather in this corner where they meet after the prayers. just to talk a bit, i guess. especially no

they were laying on the floor, we were trying to reanimate them, then we were on the guy, people wereaying to run, run, this guy took us on his car, then we saw the guide crossed the bridge and we asked this guide to drop us, he dropped us near my friend and then the police told us to run. people in the police told us to run. people in the area, they had seen what happened, pretty traumatised by what they had seen? in particular there was one other person i didn't speak to, they were far too upset, they we re to, they were far too upset, they were obviously involved on the bridge as well and i think probably about an hour after the incident, maybe just after iipm, police physically had to push him back from the scene. it appears he was on the scene and wanted to stay on the scene. he was unable to gather his thoughts, unable to do anything but scream at police and they had to scream at police and they had to scream back at him and tell him for his own safety, for his own good and for the sake of the investigation, he needed to stay back. so some really disturbing and upsetting scenes

there were many, many who were affected by this fire. there was an author by the name of frank marriott who wrote a book called "mountains and molehills," talking about fires, in part. your account to this fire in san francisco. he said, "it started in a upholstery store. the wind was blowing and increased to hurricane force. there were plant streets -- streets thatanked went up in smoke. nearly 2000 houses were destroyed. 18 blocks of the main business district was destroyed. the burnt district was about a mile square." marriott described the aftermath of this. i think this image reflects the attitude he talked about. he said, "no conception can be formed of the grandeur of the scene. at one time, the burning district was covered and one vast sheet of flame. when the excitement of such a night has passed by, one can scarcely recollect the scene. the crash of fallen timbers, the yellows of the burned and injured, the clank of the fire , the orders delivered through speaking trumpets, mad horses delivery -- mad horses delivered from stapl

>> we got -- some of us were in the dugout. some were on the ground. i was behind tend nd the dugout. my son was behind an suv and he was very brave. my other son was in the batting cage, and he was also very brave. >> glad you guys are okay. >> unbelievable. as we said earlier, that's his son, jack, 10 years old. went to baseball practice with his dad this morning in suburban virginia. ends up taking shelter under an suv after rounds start being fired in the middle of the field. laura russell is with us. she lives nearby this practice facility, the baseball diamonds, and heard the shots. laura, take the story from there and what you then saw. >> sure. hi, brian. thanks for having me on. i was in the ymca parking lot, actually, after a workout, around the 7:05 time. talking with a friend. heard this loud boom. you know, my friend and i said, what is that? sounds like a starter pistol but it's 7:00 a.m. no way in a neighborhood like that. there were two -- now i know they were gunshots -- two right after the other. when i looked over at the baseball fie

then, after some time, the restaurant opposite where we were were evacuated and people were able to leavee next and they asked us to get ready. the pregnant lady we got her to the front so she could get out first. we wanted her to be safety first. then there were people's shoes they had taken off, clothes, blood, victims, food, debris of all kinds around. three things struck me about the emergency services, they did their job brilliant lay and secondly our eyes and ears and as we were wandering through they had our backs. and i had not thought this before if i knew it. they run at the danger and turn their back to the danger to treat who ever is in front of them and try to put together the life in front of them while we're running for our lives. how brave and marvelous they are really struck with me. i might not ever meet the people whose decisions potentially saved the lives of me and other people and we are proud of them and their family who must sit home everyday worrying whether they come home. we are so thankful for them and what they do. >> reporter: i don't think there will be a dr

a couple of capitol policemen were shot as well, those that were returning fire. the one that -- one was shot in the leg or by the ankle, and he kept returning fire. can you hold for one second? one second. >> certainly. we're hearing also now from congressman gabby giffords. she was shot back in 2011. she says, my heart is with my former colleagues, their families and staff and u.s. capitol police. public service and heroes today and every day. we know that the police returned fire on that shooter. senator jeff flake was just telling us that the shooter down, and alexandria police have said it is a stable, closed situation at this point. they expect to come out with more details in the next hour, hour and a half. cecilia vega is on the scene for us at the white house. >> reporter: we're told that the vice president is on his way to the white house, and he had an event that was supposed to be taking place now, and that has been canceled. the white house is monitoring this situation closely. the vice president has sent out a tweet extepidinding his thoug and prayer

bullets were flying and unfortunately, some people were hit and were bleeding. a lot of us, like myself were bleeding because of where we got bloodied trying to run for cover, but just a harrowing scene. it seem like it took forever to actually subdue the shooter. fortunately, the capitol police were there, but apparently they only had pistols, so we were literally crying for help and help did finally arrive and just a terrible, terrible time. our whip was shot, steve scalise was shot. one of our staffers who helps volunteer was shot in the chest. it was just a horrible, horrible scene. i have never been personally fired at before and it was just horrible, sir. >> congressman fleischmann, the reason there were capitol hill police were, we're told is steve scalise is the majority whip and he's always accompanied by a protected detail, is that right? >> that is absolutely correct, sir. >> the speaker, the leader and the whip on the republican side have 24/7 security with the capitol police. no one else does, but for the fact that they were there it could have been

were they targeted? it's too early to tell, but james as you're looking at this and you hear what we just heard from congressman duncan, the man he believes is the gunman and this is the statement he gave to police is that he was asked that he asked him are these democrats or republicans practicing? he said republicans. what does that say to you? >> it's an investigative clue and it's a piece of it, and the tone thus you have to look at this from a bunch of different angles. for the fbi to have purview, three things have to happen. the first is terrorism. violence or intimidation, pursuit of political ames. that's a possibility. we assume that till we can rule it out. >> does your gut tell you anything right now, or do you need to be careful right now? >> i think you do. by the same token, make sure you don't get so hyper focused on one angle. could it be a political assassination attempt? absolutely. thirdly, could it be a random mentally disturbed person targeting civilians. the other component to this

by 1923, other people were trying to catch the killers were also being killed. one man, a lawyer started together evidence and one day he received a call from an osage was dina poisoning in oklahoma city. he took a train and told his wife before he left he had ten children, that i have evidence in this hiding spot. if anything happens to me make sure you get it and give it to the authorities. which oklahoma city met with the osage gathered evidence. after osage had dina poisoning he called local authorities and said i have enough evidence and i'm coming back to osage county. when the train arrived he wasn't there. he did not get off and they sent out the bloodhounds looking for him. there were local boy scout troops who took up the search. he was found his body line by the railroad tracks. someone had thrown him from the train. when his wife went to the hiding spot someone had gotten there and cleaned out all the evidence. as well as the money he had left for her in the ten children who are left destitute. many of the children were raised by osage families. anot

were they injured in the baror who were injured.bar or have they come in with those injuries? there was one man who said he had been slashed in the face. it was not an overly bad wound but it caught him under the chin. he was on the street. he must have been straight outside from where we were and then looked for safety and the bar. what time of night was this? roughly about 11 o'clock. 0k. about a5 minutes after the incident first happened on london bridge, just a short distance from where you were. how much were the police telling you about why they were keeping you inside the building? when the first lot came through they did not say a lot, they told us to get down and stay down for safety. the second lot told us that armed police had surrounded the building. they didn't give us any details of what had happened outside that we could see on social media what was going on. the police were quick they were good and it was a high—pressure situation. they were yelling but no—one inside the bar was overly stressed and the police were go

jane: how lucky were you that there were armed security detail there, capitol police who were able to return fire? rep. fleischmann: we were very fortunate. as a matter of fact, 2 of these heroes were injured in the gunfight. what happened was we played baseball with our majority whip steve scalise, who sadly wasn't and is inly was shot surgery right now. i pray for his quick and speedy recovery. his security detail is omnipresent. they are with us because he is in leadership. but for the fact that they are there and they are armed, this gunmen would have been able to shoot us all at will. jane: obviously, an investigation into the motives of this attack is ongoing, but do you think you are targeted? rep. fleischmann: me personally, no, because of this gun man wanted to target me, i would have been a dead man, because i was probably the closest person to him standing where i was. thank god he chose not to shoot me. i don't know how close bullets came to me. i spoke to one of my members, who i was facing and speaking with, just moments before the shooting, and he actually told me bulle

small pockets were alight in areas that were too dangerous to reach.re are bodies too, nobody knows how many. finding them is a challenge. this will be a very slow and painstaking process. this is a large building. there will be a large amount of building work required internally, structures will need to be built to ensure the floors are safe. before we do that, we are going to utilise some specialist dog teams that we have, in conjunction with the metropolitan police, that will go through the building and surrounding area looking for identification of people. the search could take weeks, and police say the number of dead is expected to rise — but how much still isn't clear. our absolute priority for all of us is about identifying and locating those people who are still missing, and it would be wrong of me to give a number that is not accurate. one person has been reported 46 times that they believe to be missing. but how did this happen? the cause of the fire still has not been formally identified. understanding why it spread so fast could take weeks,

there were people we spoke to who were housed for one night, didn't know where they were going therend on food and were not told anything by anyone. no one was in charge. what i have done today is ensured that we as a government putting funding in place for people in the area. this has been an absolutely terrifying experience. where are they going to be housed? it has been a terrifying experience for people. when i have heard stories, i heard stories from the emergency services yesterday and that is why i ordered a public enquiry as soon as i got back to downing street. we will make sure that takes place as soon as possible. this was preventable, wasn't it? in 2013, a coroner put safety recommendations which included putting sprinklers in every building editor was never done. 0ne sort of padding would have been fireproof as it cost £2 more. but that £2 not have been worth spending? we are yet to ascertain because the blaze. they could have spent £2 more on cladding. the fire service are looking at were because of the fire was, and it's important that we get to the of this. in 2013, y

we were running up was gone. there was no one in the van. we were running up some was gone.one in the van. we were running up some steps just near the pub, the barraboy, i believe it was called. that is all we heard. and then we ran. my friend said to me "josh, run. call your family." we ran to london station. there was not a lot of information being disseminated. people were walking around as if it was normal. particularly in the station it was as if half the people had no clue what was going on. even though i saw pa rt what was going on. even though i saw part of it, i sort of did not know what was going on. but i definitely saw the van crash into the sort of gated fence area. i saw this guy running up from, i think the stairs lead down to borough market. i saw someone lead down to borough market. i saw someone shout he has got a nice. -- knife. what was going through your mind when you heard those words, he has got a knife. to be honest, i did not really believe that it took me a long time to understand what was going on. i could not believe what had happened. iwas going

she said they were all armed. they took her into the back room of her house, which is a room she never goes into -- for reasons -- anyway, basically, she was arrested from that point. we did not have any information with regard to the chargeses or anything until after the hearing on monday. 's motherity winner was speaking to anderson cooper on cnn. nsa whistleblower edward snowden has spoken out about winner's arrest, saying -- "to hold a citizen incommunicado and indefinitely while awaiting trial for the alleged crime of serving as a journalistic source should outrage us all." meanwhile, the intercept has published a statement, saying -- "w"while the fbi's alallegations against winner have bebeen made public through the release of an affidavit and search warrant, which were unsealed at the government's request, it is important to keep in mind that these documents contain unproven assertions and speculation designed to serve the government's agenda and as such warrant skepticism. winner faces allegations that hav

people were stabbed and then there were phone calls made.nd saw attacks happening in front of his eyes. he was deeply shaken up. he saw a woman in her early 20s stabbed severely and go to the ground badly injured. he described one of the attackers as having what looked like canisters ta ke to having what looked like canisters take to the body. we have seen a photograph that suggest that if the correct description. and then there was police intervention. shots were fired but the police have not said anything about the shooting. i think thatis anything about the shooting. i think that is important. we need to understand why that is. to meet suggest that they are trying to work out exactly what shots were fired before putting out a brief and factual statement about what happened, what the outcome was, how many attackers they were. the other key piece of information we are still waiting for is a rough idea of the number of people killed in the incident and the number of injuries. as you discussed, the major trauma units in this part of london ar

in fact, they were often more concerned about what the chinese were doing in africa than they were about what the soviets were doing in africa. i thought, this is interesting, maybe i will write an article about this some day. i filed it in the back of my mind. and then i came across another even more important set of primary sources. in 2006-2007, i was invited to china for a number of conferences. when i went for these conferences, i do what all cold war historians do when they visit foreign countries. i looked in the archives. this is me in front of the foreign ministry archive . beginning in about the chinese 2004, foreign ministry started to declassify a growing number its cold warabout foreign policy. it declassified them in several batches. the first was from 1949-1954, then there were subsequent batches that covered 1955-59, and then 60-65. this is me in front of the archive. i know the shorts and shirt don't match that well. live out of your suitcase doing archival research month this is what you end , up with. it was taken about 7:30 in the morning. those of you who know me kno

a lot of people were very agitated. they made their way away, and they seem to be stranded on the other side of the ridge. to show you how many people are caught up in this incident on the other side and borough market. >> thank you. let's hear from that witness that you spoke to a little earlier on. >> we are at the pub and came out and that got canceled. we saw people running and so we jumped in the nearest car. we were trying to run the block and we saw the body on the floor. a lot of people around it. we came on the bridge and there was a two pedestrians on the bridge and police telling us to run to the other side. >> , new people did you see on the ground? >> two. and then we saw someone actually right there covered in blood with shorts covered in blood. >> were people panicking? >> yes. everyone was running. it was before the bridge on the ground on the other side by the river. >> let's update you to the latest. this terrorist incident as it is being described by police. twenty-five minutes past midnight metropoli

the police were moving rapidly. armed police were moving into the area. we were told to move back because there were armed officers in the area. because police have gone static indicates they have decided the limit that they want to cordon off. we have seen officers on this street here detain a couple of young men. perhaps they were drunk or abusive to the officers. they gave them a thorough pat-down to be sure they didn't have weapons on them. then let them go. the space here right now, on the street corner you can see two armed officers. they have facemasks and bulletproof vests, automatic weapons. they seem to be standing -- casually is the wrong word -- but they're standing patiently, if you will, on that corner. they don't believe there's an immediate threat in this area. but the police are staging vehicles just around the corner. this is a massive area as best i can tell from this vantage point that's been cordoned off. a mile to mile and a half from the borough market. we've seen in the last minute or so an ambulance leaving that area with lights f

they were not enjoying the war, but they were not concerned about the fact that this was the end. they couldn't say by april we will have to surrender and therefore we should just give up now. for them, they are living in the moment and that moment is they have a chance and they will fight as long as they can with whatever resources they can. thank you very much. [applause] >> we will talk about the civil war ships in hampton road. this is coverage on american history tv on c-span3. >> good afternoon, everyone. >> good afternoon everyone. and the director of the civil war institute. welcome pleasure to laura, a graduate of penn state university. she spent timeer as an historian at his berg national park. stem went on to unc greensboro and we spent some time together. i was her mentor for year before i moved on to west virginia university. at did complete her masters unc greensboro. she has had a varied career in the field of public history. her first job was at stratford hall. she is the deputy education director at the hampton roads naval museum. she's been there since 2010. obvi

were you there? i can't imagine these families what they have to go through, and i do have to thank the officers that do put their lives on the line every day. they're all super people and they help us in every way and so we want to thank them and a couple of the guys, you know, raced out in the middle of the field and brooks was out there, a member of congress from alabama putting his belt on and scalise or one of the guys as a tourniquet right away and he's got guts and it brings out the finer angels, as well. >> we spoke to congressman brooks of alabama. he did take off his belt. we do know that a staffer working for congressman roger williams from texas and we know one of the staffers was injured and we don't know if mo brooks put his belt on that staffer and we don't know the extent of the injuries and you're right, presumably some of them are serious. i don't know if you heard steve scalise's office put out a statement saying he's shot in the hip if the med star washington hospital center that'

he said his colleagues were ringing him and telling him that people were being stabbed in the pubs andin particular at one of them, for people had been stabbed. —— four. he went out to see what was going on, thinking it was a fight, normally he would go towards that as a security person. people were running and screaming in the other direction. he said he saw three men attacking people in the bar area. he saw an injured 20—year—old woman go to the ground. some eyewitnesses said they saw police at some of these attackers. we have one unconfirmed report two men were shot dead by police. they have the job of dealing with this in the initial stages and they deal with it. they have not said anything in detail yet, but have said be vigilant and stay safe. their last twitter message was people should be calm and vigilant and alert. there is a large police operation going on and a big cordon in place. one last thing, there will be concerns, this is an ongoing terrorist incident, that people are still attacking people. there was a report from vauxhall, but we'd don't believe people confirmed it

when they were renewed, there were told to be very careful about expressing their opinions. what's tonight at 8:00 eastern on c-span's, q and a. >> the state of pennsylvania was founded by quicker william penn in 1682 as a sanctuary for religious freedom. many's quick -- quakers have lived and worshiped in philadelphia percent. next, american history tv's american artifacts, a visit to arch street meeting house constructed in 1804. tell in the story of philadelphia's society of friends -- and to learn about the history and practices of quakers. >> welcome, i am the director. today i will talk about the building, arch street meeting house, a quaker place of worship, also a little bit about quakers. a lot of our visitors don't know much about the religion before they get here, which is an interesting issue. when you go to -- on the two were of the catholic church, one of those historic cathedrals, people usually have sort of background knowledge, we have found her visitors don't. if it would in our tours, we answer a lot of questions about whether or not quakers are puritans,
