Thank you. Israel is welcoming the release of convicted israeli spy jonathan pollard. The american was released from prison today after spending 30 years behind bars. Poll land was sentenced to life after he was found guilty of spying for israel, and his imprisonment has been a realisticing point in u. S. israeli relations ever since. Rob reynolds has more from washington. Reporter the spy jonathan j. Pollard left a federal prison in North Carolina under cover of darkness. His parole was 30 years to the day after his arrest of selling a vast trove of highly classified intelligence to israel. Pollard later appeared in new york accompanied by his wife esther, who he married while in prison. He must check in with a parole officer weekly and may not leave the u. S. For five years. His came back a cause celeb in israel and in some sections of American Jewish community. Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu hailed the release. Someone who raised this case before successive u. S. President s many times, i longed for this day, and now after three long and difficult decades, jonathan is being released. Many think he was punished to harshly. He served many years in prison with no real thing written and its about time. Reporter over the course of 18 months, pollard, a civilian analyst delivered tens of thousands of top secret, classified documents to israeli agents in washington.

Secretary of defense casarr weinberger wrote a letter to the judge detailing the Severe Damage that the activities brought. Judge robinson sentenced pollard to life. Many israelis would no doubt like to give pollard a heros welcome. But the Israeli Government wasnt always so welcoming. In 1985 as his spying scheme was unravelling and with the fbi hot on his heels, pollard sought refuge at the Israeli Embassy here in washington. He was turned away and arrested leaving the spy out in the cold. Rob reynolds, al jazeera, washington. Up next, an American City under siege. The troubling spike in baltimores homicide rate and why its happening and what can be done about it. The super bug problem. Why antibiotics are struggling to stop the newest bacterial strains. S.

Jamar clark was fatally shot last sunday after Police Responded to a domestic dispute. Police say clark was reaching for an officers gun. Authorities say they have received several videos of the shooting. Protesters call for the release of the video. With six weeks left in 2015, the homicide rate has set a new high for the city in baltimore surpassing the previous record set. In all of last year 211 people were killed in baltimore. As of today homicides have increased by 50 over last year. Most of the deaths were shootings. Randall pinkston has more on the story. Reporter its said good fences make good neighbors. In baltimore a fence may have got kendall killed. Why were the drug dealers upset . It seems he interrupted business or just became personal. Christopher irvin is a Community Activist and organized the effort to complete the fence after kendall fenwicks death. He was building a fence to keep his three Young Children safe. He was 24 years old, a father of three that worked. He engaged in his community. Where is his support from the administration, from the municipality itself . Fenwicks murder was another step towards a depressing statistic for baltimore. In 2014 there were 211 murders. On thursday, the day before the funeral, it was 306. I believe the uptick in violence has to do with some of the gang culture and some respect issues on the streets of baltimore. Deputy commissioner deen palmeer is the director of operations. This is a very unique year in baltimore and hope its an anomaly. One is the freddie gray case. Gray, a young black man, was fatally injured in Police Custody. His death was followed by riots. You had two or three or four very wellpublicized incident of police brutality. It triggers the response and reaction that we got when we had the beginning of those riots. City councilman William Welch weighed in a popular theory, that after grays death the police backed off from strict enforcement. Ive heard Police Officers pull a perpetrator up and he will throw up his hands and say freddie gray, and im sure that has a psychological effect on the police officer. I think postcivil unrest there was anxiety not only, you know, with any options but within the communities themselves. That has not prevented the officers from going out and doing their job. The death of freddie gray in Police Custody and the upheaval that followed brought National Attention to baltimore, but this city isnt the only city in america where the murder rate after years of decline is on the rise. The New York Times collected dat from from several Police Departments, milwaukee, st. Louis, washington, d. C. , new orleans and chicago. All showed a substantial increase in murders between august 2014 and august 2015. In all of these Cities Police need help from residents to identify people responsible for Violent Crimes, but irvin says baltimore residents are reluctant to come forward. Baltimore has something of a history also of people who have come forward and then are supposed to be protected of them being touched. What do you mean by touched . Intimidation, threatening their lives. Yes, the full gamut. Baltimore police admit that trust building is a problem. They say theyre making progress in getting the communitys assistance to find kendall fenwicks killer and prevent more deaths. Lets talk about it. D. Watt k watkins joins us from little rock arkansas, and jeffrey ross is the criminalist and professor from university of baltimore in washington, d. C. Let me star with you, son of baltimore. Youre a son of baltimore and im a son of baltimore. Well check in with professor ross in a second here. Whats going on in our hometown . So, you know, i dont think that we can make a connection to the freddie gray case. I find it hard to believe that Police Officers arent performing in the manner in which they should be performing because of one murder. This is after years and years and years of lack of opportunity, you know. We cant put this on the gray case. Theres too many other things to consider. One, you have safe streets, an organization that has been doing good work and made a difference being taken away because of some say criminal activity, some say other things. I dont have all the facts on that, so i cant speak on it. The main thing is lack of opportunity. If you take the rise in murders across the nation with the unemployment rate, maybe we can find something there. Right. Now, professor ross, what do you think of d. Watkins point here, its not just one death, its a lack of opportunity for years and years and years . Whats going on in baltimore from your perspective . If youre talking about lack of opportunity, then im assuming youre making the connection to the availability of drugs and the sale of drugs and then of heroin and crack cocaine. Then we lead to the creation of gangs and then selling drugs. I think thats the longterm kind of process there. Most of the violence thats going on there is gangrelated, and its connected to individuals who are trying to demonstrate their authority inside a gang and or competition thats internal to a gang and also external forces, that is other gangs and other individuals coming into the professor ross, i dont think thats what d. Watkins is referring to. I dont need to speak for him. Hes right there. When we talk about the lack of opportunity, i think perhaps what hes referring to and certainly what im referring to is a lack of goodpaying jobs and a lack of an opportunity to get a really solid education in baltimore. Thank you. Is that what youre saying, d. . Thats exactly what im saying. No, this isnt like its not just baltimore. This is happening across the nation, and you cannot just its not just a baltimore thing. If you and i went to hollywood today and we shut the movie industry down, we moved in a militarized police force and sprinkle crack on time, you get the same thing. Its not just a baltimore thing. What do you think about that, the lack of opportunity, professor ross, meaning a lack of jobs in that community in Baltimore City and the lack of an opportunity to get what i think all of us would consider to be a really solid education . So im confused here. So are you saying thus lack of opportunity, and then we go and shoot some people . Whats the connection there . I think youre looking for if you live in a nation where wealth is dangled in front of your face all day long and dont have the access or ability to touch any of it, it can drive you crazy. This is not a new thing. Its the same issues. The only thing that changes is the faces telling the stories. Its the same thing. You deny that as a reality, professor ross. So it drives you crazy and pick up a gun and shoot someone else i dont understand it. Let me ask you you might okay. Go ahead, d. Go ahead, d. I mean i you might not understand that reality because you probably come from a place of privilege, so your whole experience doesnt mirror the people who are going through a lot of these homicides and things of that nature. Thats totally irrelevant because i have worked this baltimore. Its very relevant. Privilege is very relevant. Privilege is very relevant. You must acknowledge that. What do you think is driving the spike in violence . What do you think it is . Its competition inside gangs for respect, for opportunities, competition from outside, internal dynamics inside the drug market. Thats what is going on. If you want to go back to the issue of privilege, thats a more complicated, longterm kind of explanation. When you can make, you know, thousands a couple thousand dollars on the street in one day versus having a different job out there that just gives you a middle class, you know, livelihood, theres a certain attractiveness to the gang life beyond just simply money. Let me suggest Something Else. Thats a very disconnected opinion. What you said doesnt make any sense. Think about why theyre selling drugs. People dont want to sell drugs, and the life isnt that attractive. Its not. Maybe from the outside looking in you think you understand how these things work, but they dont work like that at all. People arent going to bed, you know, at night dreaming of being drug dealers whether they grow up. These are people who cant or dont have the opportunities to do anything else. Professor, can i try Something Else on you . Professor, let me try this on you. Im old enough to remember the period of which im about to refer to here. So many of the industries that supported the middle class in baltimore have downsized or are simply gone. I can remember a time when bethlehem steel, my dad worked there. That was a thriving business. There was a time when it was the largest employer in baltimore. The ports were bustling. Baltimore was a city of smokestacks. My question is im trying to understand whats happened. A lot of those jobs are simply gone, and either black folks have not adapted to the new economy or have been locked out. You cant deny that a lot of the industry in that city has vanished. Im not denying that. If were going to talk about a socioeconomic argument based on the health, the Economic Health of the city, that kind of takes the conversation in a different direction, which is several steps removed from the primary question, which is why this year there is a phenomenal increase in Violent Crime and homicides in baltimore. Tell me what the difference is in the economic this year versus last year and the lack of opportunities . Did something happen 18 months ago or, lets say, january 1st in baltimore in terms of opportunities . My answer is im goalkeeper to ask you the question and im going to answer it. I dont think that there has been any significant differences there. Now, you might argue that its been a culmination of things, but it didnt just start january 1. There are dynamics operating there on the ground that have to be addressed, and its not just simply police practices. Im on the same page with d. There. Just because of the freddie gray incident or this alleged ferguson effect, Police Officers really arent you find selective Police Officers who are reluctant to do what theyre paid to do. Those Discretionary Authority to stop, question, search, arrest, ticket, warn, that sort of thing. You see that. You hear these stories, but its really whats going its on the ground sorts of things. So basically, i guess, what we can say here is if Police Officers are allowed to kill an unarmed black man who he had no reason for stopping, if theyre allowed to do that, they can be more effective at their jobs . We must give them the power to murder people, and then they can be more effective . I hear police cant do their jobs because theyre too scared of what happened with freddie gray. If we allow them to murder, then they can go out there and the murder rate will go down and we can stop crime . Professor, last word. I dont know how you come to that conclusion, d. I think we can i dont understand the logic there. Its based on a whole idea of this narrative of people saying im not saying you said this, but i keep hearing people say Police Officers are saying they cant be effective because of the freddie gray effect. D. , in fairness i believe what the professor is saying is that he agrees with you that this idea that one death at the hands of these officers doesnt really explain whats happened in terms of this spike. No, it doesnt. It doesnt. So thats a place where we should probably button it up, because im flat out of time. Thanks for your time, d. , and professor ross. Thanks for your perspective. Gentlemen, thank you both. Straight ahead on the program, the attack in mali. We look at the major rebel groups destabilizing west africa. Plus, the volkswagen scandal grows and the automaker says more cars are involved in emissions cheating. Ting. A siege in west africa left 19 people dead. Over an hour ago the state department confirmed an american was among the victims. It happened in the former french colony of mali at the raddison blu, a u. S. Owned hotel popular are vitors overseas. Armed men opened fire in the lobby. Then they took about 170 people hostage. Over the course of the day, those people were set free. Malian Security Forces eventually entered the hotel and at last report they were going through the building to secure it. A group said to have ties to al qaeda claimed responsibility for the attack. The leader of that group, the algerian has been a wanted man in the United States since 2003. At least five rebel groups are active in mali. John is here with a breakdown of the major players. John. Thank you, good evening. So different from where we live here in the United States. Mali, like many african nations is a large landlocked countries with miles and miles of bush and scrub land where rebel groups easily hide and disappear. Its embroiled in the worst political crisis. Two years ago the french had to go into the north of the country to put down an al qaedaled insurgency. There are five prominent Islamist Groups operating in mali right now and here tler beginning with al sal dean, which means defenders of the faith. Al qaeda in the islamic and the signed in blood battalion and the last one at the bottom is the i see lan mick movement. This is al qaeda in the islamic republic. Theyre activity as kro the north and west of the continent. When it comes to gun running, it really doesnt help very much that mali is reasonably close to the market but reasonably close to libya where both al qaeda and isil are active at the moment. And nigeria here not too far away really by land, and only this week a report by the institute for economics and peace said the terrorist group there called boko haram is the worlds deadliest. Killing more people last year than the Islamic State did in syria and iraq. Thank you. The leader of that group, muktar bell muktar is on the stale departmented wanted list. He was behind the attack of a gas installation in algeria two years ago. In that incident about 800 were held captive. 39 hostages were killed including three americans. That led the state department to offer a 100,000 reward for his arrest. We have more now. Reporter known as the uncatchable, hes evades several attempts to arrest him by Security Forces in algeria, mali and france. He was targeted by a u. S. Air strike in libya in june and supposedly killed. But al qaeda says he survived the at that tack. They say muktar takes responsibility for the attack. Reporter hes been wanted by several countries for a long time, and hes undoubtedly behind this attack, although we cant confirm it yet. Al mourabitoun has links to al qaeda. They use weapons smuggling and Drug Trafficking to finance the activities. He fought with Osama Bin Laden in afghanistan. He was the leader of al qaeda in northwestern africa but split from the group in 2012 to form his own militia. The group has previously been involved in hostage taking sieges in the region as recently as august several hostages were taken and killed in central mali. Now his group has claimed responsibility for the attack on the raddison blu. Mary beth long is a former assistant secretary of defense for International Security affairs, and she joins me from washington. Mary beth, good to have you on the program. Look, this group led by muktar bel muktar claiming credit for this attack, what more do you know about him . First of all, is he alive or is he dead . I dont think anybody really knows. Certainly the Libyan Government reported him to have passed as a result of u. S. Air strikes this past june, but as you know, al qaeda has denied that from the beginning. Hes certainly evaded death before. The organization that he leads is one of a number of islamic groups, correct, that have been active in mali this year with at least two other attacks, correct . Thats correct. Actually, earlier this year the particular group that muktar led had an opportunity to join isis, and he declined toosdz, which is interesting i think. As recently as 2013, french forces, if were talking about greater mali reversed an allout al qaeda takeover of most of mali, correct . I believe timbucktu was essentially gone. And the forces were moving close to bamako, correct . They were. They were pushed back by an effort to really turn back the jihadist and take back the land. They were really decimated, but they werent neutralized. Mary beth, what should we make of the timing of the attacks so close to the paris attacks . I think its very interesting not only the timing but the location. This is, of course, a former french colony. This is a place where, as you point out, the french recently pushed back a few rebels, and it comes just weeks after, of course, isis got tremendous acclaim and interNational Attention for the attack in france. This may well be his ability or apparent attempt to raise his hand and say dont forget about me and al qaeda as well. This feels so much like the mumbai attacks from 2008. Have both al qaeda and maybe i. S taken a page from the mumbai attackers in identifying softer targets and less expensive operations . Certainly recently a chak in the tactics and the strategy of isis by moving abroad and really launching what are fairly simple in the con sec of a lot of bank for your buck so to steek and a lot of interNational Attention with the mumbai attack with the jihadists working there. Al qaeda has tried a lot more sophisticated attacks, some of which have been turned back. This recent soft target and sort of low profile attacks gets a lot of interNational Attention. Unfortunately theyre difficult to spot and stop. Mary beth long is the former assistant. Good to have you on the program. Thank you. Up next, a new more dangerous super bug. Whats different about this latest generation of bacteria judge why antibiotics dont why. An apology from scotland yard. What under cover officers did and its heinous to draw an unprecedented response. D response. Health Officials Say the last line of defense against bacteria has been broken. This week scientists discovered a mutating super bug in china just as the World Health Organization is trying to educate people about the dangers of antibiotic resistant bacteria. Courtney keely has our report. The world is heading towards a postantibiotic era. Reporter a warning from the World Health Organization this week. Health Officials Say bacteria is getting stronger. So strong it is now able to fight off the drugs that used to stop it. If Current Trends continue, sophisticated interventions like organ transplantation, joint replacements, cancer chemotherapy and care of preterm infants will become more difficult or even too dangerous to undertake. Reporter wednesday chinese scientists discovered new mutation in a bacteria that makes it invincible. Highly resistant with even a last resort of antibiotics with the strongest in the group. The mutation known as mcr1 has another alarming power. It can transfer its super strength to a range of bacteria including e. Coli and the germs that cause pneumonia. The moment that problem pops up in one country, it really could be a global event. So we can see an antibiotics resistance problem in china, and in a matter of hours within a plane flight, that problem can arise in america, in other couldnts as well. Health Officials Say these dangerous super bugs are a result of antibiotic abuse, especially in farm animals. In china farmers feed their pigs low doses of cholestin to fatten them up. The more we use them the more we lose them. Each time wi tack an antibiotic the bacteria in and our bodies are more likely to become resistant. About 700,000 people die every year from super bugs, but Officials Say if action isnt taken soon, the number of deaths could shoot up to 10 million by 2050. Health officials worldwide are lobbying to put more restrictions on antibiotics and encouraging the public only to use them when prescribed. Courtney keely, al jazeera. Joins me now is dr. Saline gal ner that specialized in infectious diseases. Hi. Hi. If this last line of defense cholestin is challenged, how serious is this . Tony, cholistin and one of the older antibiotics we have is its quite literally a detergent. You give people i. V. Detergent to kill bugs, and theres a lot of toxicity involved in that. Its a big deal we have to resort to this for many infections at this point. What regions of the world that would be most affected by the super bugs . Certainly in the u. S. We see a lot of super bugs. We see a lot of growth in this is the bricks country. Brazil, china. Russia, india . So its in those countries where we see increasing incomes, rising incomes but still developing country kinds of living situation and the confluence of more antibiotic use but still poor hygiene and sanitation needs. They have more resistance. How much of this is due to the fact that antibiotics are being used in meat production and in poultry . Well, quite frankly we use even more antibiotics in Food Production than in humans. Quite a bit more, actually. Great. Were not using them just to treat infections. We use them to mask again, poor hygiene, Animal Husbandry and also to promote growth. Thats really not an appropriate use of antibiotics. Wait a minute here. In the final analysis one of the other reasons we were talking about this is the overprecipitation of antibiotics. And that has to stop, doesnt it . Well, its on us as pashs as well as doctors. People think that i feel really sick. The common cold can make you feel really sick, but thats caused by a virus, and people dont understand that the treatment of bacteria, antibiotics, those drugs dont work for viruss. So you could have a common cold. You could be miserable. You could still have a cough or postnasal drip through weeks later. That doesnt mean antibiotics will help up. The zpack. The doctors are the professionals here. They have to be the adults here, so they have to say you dont need an oent bake for this, tony. That takes time. Unfortunately, to counsel patients and doctors dont like saying no to their patients. The other problem is doctors tonight like to miss something. Theyre worried they might miss something or might not know how to make an appropriate dgsz. Theyre kind of covering themselves by giving you unnecessary antibiotics. How easy its a lot harder than simply saying cant we just go and find other antibiotics, develop other antibiotics . Its not that simple, is it . The financial incentives for the pharmaceutical industries arent there. You use an antibiotic for a short period of time for treepting an infection. When you measure up the cost of research of Development Versus the market, the volume of sales, its just not a good equation for them. Got you. Good to see you. Good weekend. My pleasure.
