you've just recently returned from ira the yazidis have, have appealed to the icc. they wanted the icc to do something about the genocide that they say that is happening to them because of isil. what can the icc do? >> that for me interesting, no? because, if you are a victim of, this type of crimes, you are in iraq. but isis who have no, no one can control them, is attacking you. where you go? iraq cannot do it. so who else will protect you? so people keep moving, asking icc to intervene. and the problem was, iraq is not a state party. so the territory's not under the jurisdiction of international criminal court. because what they had to prove to open a case at the icc is that member of isis are nationals from third parties. and then, we collect, they collect the information showing that they're 2,000 tunisians, 1,500 jordanians, and more than 2,000 europeans leading isil. so now they, the yazidis, n.g.o.s and the (unintel) government two weeks ago, they went to the hague and they present a communication to the prosecutor asking her to start to work in the genocide

in fact, it lacks the recognition, the full range of support that yazidi survivors of sexual violence desperately need. that's the reason i offered two amendments to improve this important resolution to urge the president to exercise his existing authority. no new authority is necessary for him to provide and support age-appropriate, comprehensive postviolence care, including provision of treatment to prevent h.i.v. infection, trauma and surgical care, mental health services, social and legal support, and a full range of medically necessary reproductive health services, including emergency contraception, safe abortion care, and maternal health services. when the o or the horrors that l inflicts on the yazidi came to light in "the new york times" report entitled "isis enshrines a theology of rape, including systemic rape of women and children in isil-held territory," i demanded that our great nation take action. we cannot allow for the continued use of rape as a tool of warfare to destabilize and disrupt communities, to exert control over women and girls, and in the case of the yazidis

the treatment of groups such as the yazidis in all its horror should surely make us unwilling to contemplate any further extension of daesh-controlled territory. inaction too leads that way to death and destruction. quite separately there are those, not opposed in principle to action who doubt the efficacy of what is proposed. a coalition action which rests almost wholly on bombing they say will have little effect. well, tell that to the kosovans. don't forget if there had been no bombing in kosovo perhaps a million albanian muslim refugees would be seeking refuge in europe. tell the people in kobani, pleaded international support without they felt losing control to daesh. them testimony in sierra leone, military action should always be avoided because there would be casualties. their state and peace was almost destroyed. it was british military action that brought them back from the brink. of course it took place in conjunction with political and diplomatic activity and i share the view it is vital that such activity is substantially have strengthened and i'm heartened what the prime minist

it's kidnapped hostages and collected millions in ransoms, enslaved yazidi women and sold them as sex slaves, smuggled goods in and out of its territory, including archeological artifacts that it fence fences, and even imposes fines for traffic violations, for smoking, and for bad dressing. the islamic state, i would argue, has an economic model very similar to the mafia. it's essentially a protection racquet. that shouldn't be surprising, given that its founder was converted to islamist extremism in a jordanian prison where he was a gang enforcer, and that his islamic movement has recruited other criminal networks and recruited in prisons, not only in iraq, where kambuqa, one of his successors as leader of isis was in kambuqa, the u.s. prison. and now we know from the paris attacks that isis has recruited among criminal networks in france and belgium. and indeed, prisons historically have been an important vector for the spreading of islamist extremism in many countries, including our own. that's something that needs to be watched. thirdly, the islamic state has greater religious app

kurdish and yazidis forces helped take back the town of sinjar. we've seen some other smaller forces unify against daesh. we had the syrian arabs and kurds join together. this is a group we have helped to equip. they have helped capture some key terrain, pushing daesh out of a town and 900 kilometers of surrounding territory. there is some progress. finally as you no doubt saw just yesterday secretary carter announced we would be accelerating a number of our efforts, particularly he talked some about the special operations world to include sending what was called some expediti expeditionary forces to combat daesh. over time, these forces will be conducting raids hopefully freeing hostages and gathering that all precious intelligence, which in turn will lead to better deliberate targeting like i described to you earlier. though all of this is still being worked out and the details are not final, i can tell you such a team would certainly have air force members front and center and air force capabilities front and center, so i'm talking here typical

we remember when isis seized large areas of christians and yazidis, up to half a million left those areashe kurdish areas. administration refused to bring them the way they want to bring now syrian refugees. there is political background to this. david: don't understand it. wall heat fair rest, colonel. appreciate it. melissa? melissa: big news out of yahoo! charlie gasparino has details on the breaking story coming up next. if a denture were to be put under a microscope, we can see all the bacteria that still exists. polident's unique micro clean formula works in just 3 minutes, killing 99.99% of odor causing bacteria. for a cleaner, fresher, brighter denture every day. on their auto insurance. wouldn't a deal involve two parties discussing something? a little give? a little take? because last time you checked, your rate was just, whatever they say it is. why not give you some say in the matter? or -even better- let your driving do the talking. liberty mutual righttrack finally puts you in control of your rates. all you have to do is connect, drive and save. in fact, safe driving could s

earlier in the year we heard a lot about sinjar mountain and the yazidis who were a small religious group persecuted. we get that sense that isil is trying to silence any other voices that believe in different faiths and this is an opportunity for the president to give a broad christmas message and at the same time, make a very clear case about foreign policy and also a reminder, really, to american christians who are able to celebrate freely how unique and special that right and obligation and opportunity is if you live in the united states. so not entirely unusual but what stands out is how a holiday message and a foreign policy message have intersected here. >> i know that the president left washington last week after a long string of national security related meetings. it always is on top of his agenda. but what else is the president keeping an eye on this week while on vacation? >> reporter: well, as we often say, the vacation is only part of the president's day. he still gets his presidential daily briefing, he's got a team with him here who provided him any instant analysis and con

whether it's the yazidis or the christians in iraq or syria or jews that are being discriminated against in europe or the united states, the next president of the united states needs to recognize religious freedom is one of the first freedoms in this country. whether it's here inside the borders or outside, but for us, who? who but the united states will stand for the discriminated, the oppressed? and sadly that discrimination now is taking place across the united states college campuses as well. the political correctness our country needs to be shattered. university should be a place of free expression. these growing cases of anti-semitic behavior by a few, supported by professors and administrators in some cases by their not taking action has to stop. the president of the united states has the authority in many ways to convene. has the bully pulpit to make sure that people know at least one person the leader of the free world, who only want to act on their religious beliefs. it is the first freedom i believe should be protected.3]f÷ by the energy that exists, by the creativitcreativity

this was a genuine civil war and gets me into this issue of yazidis create isis by t-shirt contributed to it. assad decided to in essence declared a war within syria against those who were demonstrating against his regime, not at the outset. by the way almost all of them were secular to begin with, not because they were calling for regime change, they were calling for reform and the response to that was draconian. and then as a way of saving himself, he had to create a sectarian conflict. he had to say to the alawites and fy12, you're all finished. so he created a war. now it is true come if tomorrow he goes, the prospect that isis is the one who replaces it is very high. if we learned one lesson from iraq, and maybe also libya, don't create vacuums that are going to be filled by the worst possible forces. but that doesn't mean our only option is, has to be that. and here again, you know, i was echoing fred in some respects. i don't see an alternative to the interprocess but i don't think it has much prospect of success. that's the test i established, the right ones, he is doing is rea

yazidi, rounded them up and slaughtered men en masse and enslaved women. that is pretty, pretty straight out of any sort of genocide playbook. in contrast al qaeda with the province had a program that is definitely genocidal. genocide intent to destroy a group in whole or in part. they had the drews sign renunciation of their faith, saying they would embrace sunni islam and put them into reeducation classes. this isn't round them up, slaughter them, enslave them, instead it is a softer genocide. but it is still a genocidal policy. in some cases there are documented cases where i think that they tried to employ brutality and were dissatisfied when it got captured on camera. one example is in yemen when they went into a hospital and slaughtered a bunch of people only to find it showed up on internet. they apologized for it. they said it was a rogue commander. i think more likely they were okay with it up until the moment it ended up on the internet and they said we'll go ahead and punish people. these are two different poaches to violence. i would go back to

we look at the intervention that we had in iraq where they had the yazidis stuck up the mountain, had we not intervened, there could have been thousands of people that isil would have killed. there are always going to be some people that are susceptible to recruitment by charismatic recruiters and it doesn't really matter that arguments they use, if they are going to go down this path, if the recruiters have them within their grip, if you like, that's something we need to challenge. i just heard in your report just now, one of the things that's missing in the u.s. is a deradicalization program. we've had one in the u.k. for a while now. it's called a channel program, there are other programs in europe, as well. what we should spend more time on is two things, one especially in the u.s., one is actually deradicallizing and rehabilitating people that have shown sympathy and report for kass mattic recruiters and theyedology. the second part is building up resilience so when the young people who may have these grievances, whatever they are, very few people, we look at the leader of the bo

yazid yazidis, iraqi christians, iraqi sunnis have been attacked by isil.so isil is trying to keep people there. but what is happening is we are seeing people leave once they -- if you're an iraqi teacher, civil servant, or doctor and you leave mosul and go to baghdad or kurdish regional-controlled territory, your salary will be restored. it is not clear how much they got to keep. isil is not a charitable institution. >> so it just leads to further instability in other areas. you talked about targeting cash houses, exchange houses, going after some of the financial institutions that support isil. and so this position is vacant, and this is a person who leads the effort of our country to counter terrorist financing, so how important is it for us to fill this position at this point? >> thank you very much, senator, for that question. i worked closely with the administration's nominee for that position, adam zubin when i was working at the state department. he is certainly an incredibly effective individual at combatting the financing of terrorism. and i think

the war against isil on we started august 8th, 2014 to protect yazidis and sinjar around eastern bill. then we had go on offense and we didn't have the rationale and withering cross-examination that it doesn't deserve. i rault the president not sending authorization for congress, essentially sings months after the beginning of war. now it has been 10 months since the president sent an authorization. we haven't had discussion we should have at front end if you want people to risk their lives. i think weinberger doctrine is good way to look at it. a couple of questions to clarify. you all offered good ideas. general if you're offering a is there a force, a command? a cyber academy? most of us done the service academy nominations? is there a cyber academy? tell us what that looks like? >> again i think it is small, probably numbered in thousands of members, so quite small. less than 10,000 probably. what you have today is each of the service academies building inside of itself a small cyber academy. this is kind of infish sip of it i think we need to overcome. i think, yes, there would b

to protect the yazidis and american consulate. now we have to go on offense.but we didn't have the discussion. we didn't have the administration's presentation of the rationale and then the withering cross examination it deserves. i thought not sending to congress for essentially six months after the beginning of the war and now it's been ten months since the president sent an authorization, we still really haven't had the discussion that you ought to have at the front and if you're going to ask people to risk their lives. i think the weinberger doctrine is a good way to look at it. a couple questions just to clarify. admiral straridis, how does that look? there's a force, a command. is there a cyber academy? most of us have just done our service academy nominations. talk to us about what that would look like. >> i can. i think it's small. it's probably numbered in thousands of members. i think what you have today is each of the service academies is building inside itself a small cyber academy. this is kind of the inefficiency of it that i think we need to ove

they target and kill gays and lesbians and have murdered thousands of muslims, christians, yazidis and other religious minorities, yet the prime says here goes to take our planes out of the fight. just how bad does it have to be in iraq and syria for us to leave our planes there? [applause] >> the right honorable prime minister. >> mr. speaker, there isn't a canadian in this country who done think that isis are a group of terrible terrorists who should be stopped. the question has always been, how best to engage. how can canada use its strength, the extraordinary strength of the men and women in the canadian forces are to support in the fight against isis. now, ongoing right now, continue to be airstrikes. we have continued -- we have committed to end those airstrikes and to transform our engagement in a different way, equally militarily, to ensure that canada continues to be a strong member of the coalition fighting against isis. [applause] >> the honorable leader of the opposition. >> thank you. mr. speaker, last night president obama also said his closest allies have stepped up thei

hillary clinton last night on the campaign trail after pressed on her position of targeting christians, yazidis islamic state. one of the leaders was a syrian man said to have direct ties to the master mind of the paris terror attacks. a spokesman for the u.s.-led coalition in iraq said yesterday that forces will continue to hunt isis leaders working to inspire attacks against the u.s. >> so we are striking at the head of this snake. we haven't severed the head of the snake yet, and it's still got fangs. we have to be clear about that. there's much more fighting to do. >> meanwhile, a top u.s. general is saying more troops may be needed in afghanistan. in an interview, john campbell said maintaining the current force of 9,800 u.s. troops to train afghan forces and conduct counterterrorism raids is vital. he said the reduction should be put off as long as possible. the taliban now controls about 30% of the districts across afghanistan. that's the most territory the group has held since 2001. the "new york times" points out that while military officials have been focusing on isis, al qaeda also s

and also canadians not as big buyers cade yazidi are bigger sellers a stronger appetite in u.s.ing what is the most expensive car ever sold? what was. >> it privately, or -- >> privately. >> privately, rumors are 52 million. >> which hot wheels is that? >> uh a gto ferrari. maria: cool. >> gen going up probably the fastest of anything, and -- i think that market has definitely leveled off right now, although one sold in new york this week for 28 million. so it is hard to say, rare cars are commanding great dollars now days. >> is that fabulous there is a brand holds value more than others from your standpoint? >> you know, certain cars will go up different times, ferraris, european sports cars had a long run. what we're seeing in the market now days is when that happens it lists the next best cars up also, depends on generations we have been focusing more towards -- originally all prewar cars then 50s, muscle cars we have broadened it out we want new buyers xxgeneralers towards millenials makes the market broader. >> thanks so much great to have you on the program, thank you see

i don't know what he would say to the yazidi forces rescued from with british helicopters from the terror that isil brought. i'm satisfied our military effort in iraq over the last year has been to the enormous credit of our armed forces and the stabilization of iraq in the face of a rapidly advancing threat from isil, wholly justified, the strong majority that this house then gave for that intervention. the reality we should acknowledge, of course -- [inaudible] >> referred to me i will answer him as best i can. the reason i think a number of us opposed motion about airstrikes in iraq last year was very simply because we did not feel then, and i still have great reservations now that we had a comprehensive plan. we have not beaten isil in iraq despite nearly a million armed security forces on the government payroll. that brings us on to syria because we have nothing near that in syria and we still don't have that plan. >> the position in iraq was desperate. baghdad was threatened by the advance of isil. it was absolutely necessary that the international community went to the aid of the g

yazidi woman who was a slave. this is what we are good at. we are good at intelligence.we have a long reach nobody else has. it puts everyone on notice in syria. you don't know it night who is going to be coming in the window. that wethe sensation want all of isil's leadership and followers to have. that's an important capability. i think the one point you have highlighted, mr. secretary, is the intelligence piece. that is the most important thing. our assessment is that this force of will make her operations much more effective. i think that is what the secretary refers to when he talks about the virtuous cycle. mr. langevin: so, you expect this abuse of social forces will increaseia exponentially, or will the primary increase be in iraq itself? gen. dunford: it will be intel driven. the enemy does not respect boundaries. neither do we. we will go where the enemy is and we will conduct operations where they will most effectively degreed the capabilities of the enemy. mr. langevin: to what extent are the financial close behind each of the bad actors present in syria incl
