Is it too little too late . Also tonight strange bedfellows iran and the u. S. Find themselves on the same side in the fight against i. S. I. L. Is it a new day for old enemies . And tackling Domestic Violence in the n. F. L. 70 of Domestic Violence happens when the person is trying to leave. Ray rices former teammate with a personal story of how he turned personal pain into empower. Sara hoy with super bowl champ chris johnson. Good evening, everyone. Thank you for joining us. Im adam may in for joeie chen. We begin with president obama and his cabinet. There are now just two original cabinet members remaining with the surprise resignation of the nations top cop eric holder. Fighting back tears the attorneygeneral Christopher Gibson announced that he is stepping down. He said he has mixed emotions but is proud of the legacy that he is leaving. Over the last six years our administration, your administration has made historic gains in realising principles of the founding documents, and fought to protect the most sacred of american rights. The right to vote. We have begun to realise the promise of equality for our l. G. B. T. Brothers and sisters and their families. We have begun to significantly reform our criminal Justice System, and reconnect those who bravely serve in Law Enforcement with the communities they protect. Holder says hell vacate his office as soon as the president gets a replacement confirmed. With congress divided it may take time for that to happen. Holder was the first africanamerican to serve as an attorneygeneral. He was heralded as a champion by president obama. He overturned restrictions on voters rights and launched investigations into abuses by local police forces. One of those was aimed at the Ferguson Police department. Last month the small midwest city saw massive protests after an unarmed black teenager was shot and killed by a white Police Officer. Today, in a rare move, the Ferguson Police chief released a video apologising to the family of 18yearold Michael Brown. Lori jane gliha has that story. I want to say this to the brown family. No one who has not experienced the loss of a child can understand what youre feeling. Im truly sorry for the loss of your son. Im also sorry that it took so street. In a 2 minute 22nd second video, the police chief apologises for the teen shot to death by an officer, and then being left in the street. The time that it took involved important work from investigators trying to collect evidence and gain a true picture of what happened that day. It was too long, im truly sorry for that. Reporter nearly 7 weeks passed since the shooting, striking massive protests, highlighting racial tension in a mostly black community policed by a mostly White Ferguson force. For days after the shooting several Area Police Departments faced off wearing riot gear against thousands of demonstrators. The chief says he wants to be part of the solution to help people hell. The right of assembly is what the police are here to protect. If anyone is upset and angry exercising that right i feel responsible and am sorry. Im aware of the pain and feeling of mistrust net in some of the Africanamerican Community towards the police department. The city belongs to all of us, we are all part of this community. Do. His statement in front of the camera is different with his initial interaction between the press and public, immediately after the shooting. He has been an excellent department. Residents criticized him for releasing too Little Information too late, including the name of the officer that killed mike brown, which took a week. The officer involved in the shooting of Michael Brown is darren wilson, hes been a Police Officer for six years, and had no disciplinary action taken against him. Reporter he came under fire for releasing those details at the same time releasing video of brown engaged in a robbe robbery. Attorneys for the browns were not happy. All i did was release the video tape. Ive been sitting on it. Too many people put in for a request, i had to release it. My heart goes out to the family, i cant imagine what they are going through. We have given you everything we have and can give you. Reporter the chief was sidelined, authority handed to ron johnson. And Jacksons Department came under scrutiny by the Justice Department launching a racial bias investigation. Attorney general eric holder himself came to ferguson to meet with the residents and assess the situation. The d. O. J. Is deeply involved in the effort to repair the damage, organising Community Meetings this week. America tonight caught up with him at a town hall this week. He said he looked forward to the chance for dialogue. How is your department doing, relations . Good. We are healing behind the scenes, and feeling strong every day. Very positive about the future. What do you think is the biggest change that needs to happen moving forward . I dont want to go there. Theres so much in the works. Now in this short video a change in tone from the head of a dest under siege to a man in plain clothes, expressing what seems to be gep un remorse. Genuine remorse. Its an honour to serve the city of ferguson, and the people that live there. I look forward to working with you to solve our problems and apologise to the brown family. Lets bring in lori jane gliha, the chief not had his uniform, in plain clothes. What is behind that . Every time we see him he wears the uniform, has his badge, taking the police chief authoritative role. This is the first time hes been in a polo shirt outfit. And he said its a personal statement, its just him. And makes him seem more like a civilian and less like a chief of police. Like optics, as if hes trying to look for friendly. Perhaps. Hes calling it a personal statement. Im curious about issuing an apology. We see they can be used against people in lawsuits. Why now, why issue the apology. He said that this has been weighing on him. He wanted to do something, so he made the video. He wanted to do it in video, not in public. He was flustered. He wanted to make sure his message was clear. I wondered if he reached out to the family. He said he has spoken in the past to members of the family, but not recently. Interesting development in ferguson. America tonights lori jane gliha. Thank you. Licence, please . Pass a that is a disturbing video out of South Carolina, showing a state trooper shooting an unarmed man during a routine shop. In a clip captured on a dashboard cam. The man is pulled over for a seatbelt violation and asked to show his licence. When he reaches for it the officer shoots at him at least three times. 31yearold shaun grover, the Police Officer was fired and arrested, charged with assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature. Thats a felony, and could earn him a prison sentence up to 20 years. The former troopers offense attorney said jones reached for his licence aggressively and grover thought he was reaching for a gun. How did that situation go so wrong so fast. Lets turn to veteran investigative Crime Reporter. The officer is charged. Do you see a justification at all for the shooting . Its not a way of justifying it, but several things wept wrong quickly here. One, the citizen turned and reached back into his car without saying, sir, my licence is in the car. Whose responsibility is that, the citizens responsibility to get permission to reach into her car or should the officer have given the individual clear instructions on what to do. In a normal traffic stop the citizen would be in the car, because he was at a Convenience Store he was getting out of the car to go into the store, putting the officer on a different state of alert. They dont want you outside the vehicle. That said he overreacts with the use of deadly force. What else could he have done . He could have said, sir, keep your hands up, or said get back into the vehicle, put your hands on the steering wheel, and he would have approached normally. We are looking at a situation, a policeinvolved shooting captured on camera, we are seeing more and more of this with cameras installed in police cars. Is this a good thing . Absolutely. In this case we have the officers words and witness, which we know grand juries decide on Police Officers. In this case we have a tape showing enough to the South Carolina authorities to charge the officer. State troopers tend to work alone. They have more of a lone ranger mentality. That said, they are rarely involved in shootings. Its a stressful job for officers that are aloned. They are on a heightened sense of alertness the entire time, arent they . Absolutely. This is broad daylight. Its not out on the i95. This was a lot different. Overreacted. Well see how this plays out in court. Veteran investigative Crime Reporter tom us. Thank you. I. S. I. L. Attacks in the west. Was it a false alarm . And a pivotal part of the plan against i. S. I. S. Shows weakness. My name is Shaquan Mcdowell im a 17 year old teenager. I go to a Public High School outside of the city limits of atlanta. Its 99 African American we do get a quality education. You know we have teachers that really care about us as far as the African American stereotypes, all the music they listen too is rap, they only use ebonics, they dont know how to speak proper english, theyve never read a book in their life, all they do is get high, smoke weed, no. Ive never been exposed to anything like that. Coming from a mom who as a single mother, had her first child at 16, who is the ceo of her own company, me being someone who is about to graduate, who is the recipient of a full scholarship, the stereotype is absolutely flawed. Did it ever cross your mind that. Being a single mother that, your children may end up like the statistics say theyre gonna fail being a single mom. Raising five kids, ive always said you guys, you be 100 the best that you can be i would like to run for the senate in 2032. Then it leads to the great big goal in life, to run for the office of the president of the United States of america catch more stories from edge of eighteen on Al Jazeera America now to the latest in the fight against Islamic State of iraq and levant, president obamas efforts against i. S. I. L. In iraq gathered steam. Air strikes continued for a third day and the list of allied nation is growing. A reluctant u. S. Ally, turkey, says it will join the Multi National several but is yet to give details as to what its prepared to do. Fellow n. A. T. O. Member france launched new air strikes against i. S. I. L.

Led air strikes in syria. The federal bureau of investigation says this weeks strikes against an al qaeda cell in syria may not have interrupted terror plots against the u. S. And european targets. Sheila macvicar has more. Reporter taking aim at the heart of i. S. I. L. s finances. 12 mobile Oil Refineries in Eastern Syria from attacked overnight, part of the complexes under control of i. S. I. L. , and key to its finances. Air strikes caught on the ground in this amateur video. The kinds of attacks that we are conducting are strategic, we are removing the means through which the itself. Reporter syrias oil fields produce up to 500 barrels a day, oil smuggled to the black market largely in turkey. Energy consultants say its worth up to 2 million a day. That would be somewhere between 700 and a billion a year, a huge amount for a terrorist group. The goal is to deprive i. S. I. S. Of revenue, putting the refineriesout of commission. Attacks against i. S. I. L. In syria and iraq continued, the u. S. Announced more help. 40 million to fight i. S. I. L. , and set up a new government. The moderate opposition is syrias best hope. It will be a long and difficult road, and i. S. I. L. Is by no means defeated or on the run. We know theres a lot of work to do, and this Group Remains viable inside syria and iraq, and this is not by a long stretch over. America tonights Sheila Macvicar joining us now. We have to talk about the alleged threats towards the u. S. And european allies announced by iraqi officials today. Do they hold any water . Iraqs Prime Minister came out and unbeknownst to everybody announced that iraq had information about threats to subway systems in new york and paris. This took everyone by surprise, including the white house who said we have no knowledge about this. The iraqis tried to walk it back saying this is information we have. The french increased security, new york put more cops in their system, and everyone said we think its okay, we threat. It triggers a heightened sense of alert even if there was nothing to it, because it was comments. Exactly. Lets bring into the discussion former Deputy Assistant secretary for the middle east, mark kimmitt. Id like your reaction to the growing coalition right now. Is this what we need . It is for two reasons for legitimacy to carry out operations against i. S. I. L. , so its not seen as a fight of america against i. S. I. L. , but the world against i. S. I. L. , and they bring capacity in the intelligence realm that are helpful to our operations. What do you think well see from turkey . I think turkey will recognise that they need to be part of this. The release of the turkish diplomats is probably why turkey has been a little reluctant to be at the forefront of the operation. They have a reason to be part of this coalition, they have more. The british thing this will be a long campaign, and they are talking about this in terms of years. We know from the target sets, yes, they are bombing headquarters, command and control, and groups of hum virus or artillery hum virus, or humvees or artillery pieces, how will it end, what is the end. Lets recognise this is part of what is called the long war, and continues to be the long war against radical ideology. Theres a threat going from al qaeda in 2001, to al qaeda in iraq, and al qaeda in the levant and i. S. I. L. I dont think anybody should be surprised even though theres a belief among the administration that the war ended, its a generational conflict, and we need to understand that. Going forward, the specific campaign in iraq and syria, the Iraqi Military gets their feet underneath themselves to regain the lost territory. It will be a little different in syria. There we are really trying to decide the delve we know versus the def devil we know versus the devil we dont know. Will the dictator Bashar Alassad remain in power, or the dictator falling and rebels taking over, as we see in libya. I think it will be in between. Is it troubling that we see the iraqi Ground Troops not able to stand up to the i. S. I. L. Forces right now. For a decade the americans invested unknown amounts of money trying to build the military and train them. Why are they illprepared. If you stopped training the American Army for three years, at the tune of 650 million that you put into the u. S. Dod, and stopped that and training, the way the iraqis have not trained in a methodical way since december 2011 upon the u. S. Well. Mark kim it and sheila us. The british are debating a larger role in the fight against i. S. I. L. , but its not a sure thing yet. Jonah hull has been monitoring the latest in london. What involvement, if any, can we expect from the u. K. . Well, the point at which british air assets may go into action against i. S. I. L. Targets on the ground in iraq looks like its getting ever closer. On wednesday, the Prime Minister set out a stall in the u. N. In new york, describing i. S. I. L. As an evil against which the world would unite. On thursday he met with his cabinet to get the wording to put to personal, a vote the Prime Minister is desperate not to reporter british war planes could be in action as early as the weekend in parliament agrees to the bombing iraq, being involved. David cameron convened his cabinet, a message with Cross Country support, that i. S. I. L. Is growing and iraq asked for outside help. As the Prime Minister made plain at the u. N. In new york, this time things are different. Now, of course, it is absolutely right that we should learn the lesson of the past, especially what happened in iraq a decade ago. But to learn the right lessons. Yes, to careful preparation. No toing to join a conflict without a clear plan. We must not be so frozen with fear that we dont to anything at all. Reporter on friday the debate of that preparation and clear plan will be debated and vote. The question the putting british planes into action over the middle east raises the uncomfortable speck tore of the invasion of iraq. Also David Camerons defeat in parliament over plans to bomb government targets in syria. Then the Opposition Labour Party said bombing syria would have been illegal. This time syria is not on the agenda, but a legal expert says little doubt about the legality of attacking i. S. I. L. They calls on everyone that supports them to kill unbelievers, and they are killing christians, sunni, moderate sunnis, shias and kurds. That is jen sinoside and every genocide, and every state has a question of stopping that. Theres no question Na International law does not prohibit armed force against the [ chanting ] that is not the few of antiwar protesters. I. S. I. L. Will be opposed internally as well, by the government, and the involvement is a fig leaf to support the american involvement. Its militarily not necessary, and they know that. Whether or not the concerns are shared, David Cameron said that britain will play its party, and parliament is likely to agree. David cameron pointedly has not ruled out extending potential u. K. Military action to include i. S. I. L. Targets on the ground in syria. That, as the main Party Leaders agree, will require an additional vote in the house of commence. With the iraq vote looking assured, debate will focus on the lessons of the past, what is the plan, how long it will take, and what is the exit strategy. Next on america tonight, best fren enemies. Iran and the u. S. Have a common interest fighting i. S. I. L. Also ahead, one in four women are the victims of Domestic Violence. Now an n. F. L. Player says he more. The n. F. L. Has been washed.

What a difference a year has made. President obama and Hassan Rouhani have gone from enemies to what you might call accidental allies. Tonight we look at how their relationship is changing as two un likely people become partners in the fight against i. S. I. L. Reporter Hassan Rouhani on a Charm Offensive for the scan year, meeting with u. K. s David Cameron, and Frances Francis hollande. A new image for a country thought of as a major threat and diplomatic headache. Iran is not the biggest problem in a region engulfed in conflict. When it comes to i. S. I. L. , president Hassan Rouhani sound like a u. S. Ally. Translation terrorism has become globalized from new york to mosul, from damascus to baghdad, from the eastern most to the western most parts of the world, from alqaeda to da i. S. H. Extremists of the world found each other and have put out the call. Extremists of the world unite. Reporter the u. S. Iranian relationship is complex. No facetoface meeting between president obama and Hassan Rouhani this year. Still, progress is measured in small steps. It wasnt long coog that Hassan Rouhanis ago that Hassan Rouhanis predecessorued the visit to berate the world and direct rhetorical missiles at israel or make comments like the one about banning gays. So it was a big change when a moderate president took to the International Stage last year. There was no antiwestern rhetoric. The tone was positive. And president Hassan Rouhani and president obama came close to meeting in person. The two did speak on the phone, which given the history was a bragg through breakthrough. Ever since the 1979 iranian revolution, and storming of the u. S. Embassy in tehran, relations between the two nations had been on ice. Now a new iranian leader and a shared desire to defeat illinois have many wondering whether this could be another breakthrough moment. Iran is syrias closest ally, and both countries were informed ahead of eastled air strikes. In a u. S. Tv interview, Hassan Rouhani made a point of not directly condemning them, speaking to charlie rose. The way to combat terrorism, sir, is not for us to give birth to another terrorist group in order to stand up against an existing terrorist group. These are the series of mistakes that composed the rings of the chain that have taken us from where we were to where we are today. We must accept the reality. Reporter the u. S. Says iran will not be part of a coalition against i. S. I. L. , and there are substantial problems between washington and tehran, especially over Irans Nuclear programme. The historic face to face meeting of the two president s seems more before. Let get a little more insight about the u. S. s relationship with iran, former state department official, a coauthor of going to tehran, why america must accept the iranian republic of iran, thank you for joining us. You had an interesting dinner a few days ago with Hassan Rouhani. What was it like . Im curious, we talk about him as a moderate leader of iran, in western terms would we consider him moderate . We use the terms moderate to describe someone as proamerican, that is not the case. President Hassan Rouhani is no more promrn than Mahmoud Ahmadinejad or others. The rhetoric is different. It is, he has a ph. D. From a university in u. K. , and a ph. D. From iraq and iran. Someone sophisticated in the iranian ways and sophisticated in the we were world. Do you think frenemies is a good term for the relationship right now . A year ago there was hope, when he had an historic phone call with president obama, secretary of state john kerry met, there was hope. On the iranian side theres concern and disappointment that each with the best of intentions and the best use of the english intentions theres not a deal to be had with the United States. We are not seeing open condemnation for usled attacks by i. S. I. L. Against iraq. Why not. Why are they holding back . They make a clear distinction. The Iraqi Government is acting for the help of the United States. The Syrian Government has not. They have not given concept nor authorisation. Problems. Where and what will need to happen to see the relationship thaw. Will there be a day where we see iran as a u. S. Ally. I think there needs to be a deal. This is why i wrote my book. As the United States opened to china, and president nixon, and kissinger went to beijing, United States could do that. We can build the trust, cross the ruby con. We have the powers. The iranians would accept and embrace that. Do you think well see a face to face meeting in the future . Not this year. Not this year. There is hope before president obama leaves office. All right. Thank you for joining us for your perspective. Thank you for having me. President Hassan Rouhani wanted to denounce i. S. I. L. As unislamic. We are joined by the digital reporter, following how muslims around the world have been responding to i. S. I. L. We saw a Pivotal Moment in the soninlaw media war. Absolutely. 120 muslim scholars issued an open letter. Its 28 pages, refusing i. S. I. L. s claim that it represents islam. It goes into different things, including that desfiguring the dead is forbidden in islam and goes into the islamic law as to why, and comes from people from around the world, including the grand mussy of egypt mufti of egypt. Its not just scholars, but individuals too. Theres a campaign called not in my name, and i want to show you examples. Not in my name, because your leader is a liar. Because your actions do not represent the actions of the rightly guided companions. Because your caliphate. Inhumane. Mind. Compassion. So its been pretty successful so far since released this month. Its received about of 60,000 tweets. 50,000 from the last week alone. The point by buoyant rebuttal by point by point rebuttal by the scholars is interesting. This . They have not issued a response, but individuals and supporters have. Its interesting to receive the emergence of a hashtag all in your name, a rebuttal to not in my name, and to some of those scholars. A lot of muslims have had this attitude, this has been popular to why should i apologise for a group im not part of. Muslims have a hash tack where they apologise for everything they have invented to discrimination based. Sorry the nuns can cover their hair, but i cant. Dear person on the subway, im sorry my incredible aura and preps caused you to move a few seats away. Im so sorry for holding up custom lines at the airport. Im sorry you tapped my phone and all you learnt was i was planning a pot luck at the mosque on friday. That has been used, its powerful, and one of the things seen often is surveillance of muslims, its a big deal to a lot of american muslims, and they realise that a lot is at take when the religion is associated with i. S. I. L. , and they are taking a strong stance against it. This can build support and shatter support at the same time. Very interesting to see social medias impact.
