Jon mike emanuel, thank you. Jenna iraqi forces fending off an isis attack at the alasad airbase where hundreds of marines are helping with training there in iraq. Eight isis were killed. Meantime, Congress Wrapping up week of counterterrorism testimony. The House Armed Services committee holding a hearing this morning on the current state of islamic extremism. Captain chuck nash joins us later this hour on his take with the fight against isis roughly six months after it began. First, john huddy live from the middle east bureau with the headlines of the day. John . Reporter jenna, the attack on this airbase as you mentioned was stopped almost immediately. It is not clear whether the militants got on the base or were stopped along the security fence perimeter. That said, proximity to albaghdadi as you mentioned is of concern and some believe it is a threat. Take a look at the map. This gives you an idea how close it. The alasad airbase is couple miles, only five miles outside of albaghdadi where isis taken control. This is the same base where 400 u. S. Force, 300 marines have been training more than 800 iraqi ground troops. So there is a large military presence and contingent there. The base has come under mortar fire but that hasnt really posed that much of a threat or much damage. It is also a massive base, iraqs second largest roughly the size of boulder, colorado, 25 square miles. It is surrounded by a heavily guarded security fence. It is located in the Anbar Province though where isis still controls a lot of territory. So there is definitely concern this could be the first of other ground attacks to come. Now, in another development, kind after bizarre development having to do with isis, the terror group says that it is holding an israeli spy hostage. They say in an interview with iraqi or isislinked magazine this 19 man from East Jerusalem says that he was enlisted by the mossad here in israel to go to syria and spy on isis. Now this guys family says they had no idea about that. Were shocked to hear the news. Had no idea about his plans and say he was not a religious person in the first place. That said though there have also been media reports here in israel that possibly he went to syria to join up with isis. So it is a very bizarre story, jenna. That continues to develop. Of course if we get anymore information, well get it to you, guys. Back to you. Jenna they have this propaganda magazine telling all sorts of different stories. It is hard to know what is the truth. John, thank you so much. Jon boko haram is following through with on threats targeting countries that are helping to fight that terror group. In chad a Lakeside Village home to 3,000 people fleeing violence in nigeria. It is unclear how many civilians were killed. A chad army colonel said boko haram scattered after the attack but troops are pursuing them now. Jenna well keep an eye on that. Ceasefire deal in ukraine could crumble before it takes effect. Some footage of the heavy fighting overnight in Eastern Ukraine after talks to restore peace to the battered region. Ceasefire is said to begin on sunday but many People Living in ukraines east say they will believe it when they see it. Greg palkot live from kiev ukraine with more. Greg . Reporter rebel fighters in Eastern Ukraine appear to be trying to change the facts on the ground and doing it in a very deadly fashion. Just about exactly 30 hours to go before the ceasefire is supposed to take hold there. Russianbacked separatist its are pounding strategic transport hub. The latest word were getting 11 ukrainian soldiers dead, 40 wounded. The town is on the dividing line between the two fighting sides. The rebels want it for theirs. In the rebel held cities of donetsk and luhansk have been hit by ukrainian shelling. 13 civilians were killed by shelling in the region. The key deal is to move heavy arms like artillery tanks back as much as 30 to 45 miles. That has got to be done starting monday. That is a lot of moving, that is a lost guns. We have indications some of that is happening already. Here in kiev, one year after the revolution that toppled the prorussia corrupt government here which in fact led to a lot of the problems as well, the warweary people see the agreement in a cautiouslystic tone but also with a lot of skepticism. We asked them will it work . Here is what they said. I hope so. Im not sure. I think previous agreements didnt work at all. Reporter previous didnt, and so this one . I hope it will work. I think no. Reporter you think no . No. Reporter like many analysts out there, many of the people we have been speaking to think that Vladmir Putin made out best in this deal. One person on the street confiding to me, he cant be trusted. Back to you, jenna. Good point, fair point to raise, one well continue to explore throughout the show. Greg, thank you. Jon in a crowded field of potential republican president ial candidates one person is getting a lot of attention these days. According to the wall street journal the financial industry is warming up to wisconsin Governor Scott walker. And he is set to attend a series of fund raisers with big dollar donors when he visits new york city next week. Lets talk about his prospects with a National Reporter for the Washington Post. And daniel hall per, online editor for the weekly standard. Things for being here on this friday. Thank you. Jon that wall street journal article was pretty glowing colby, about his fundraising potential. Wall street likes him and wall street is apparently not alone right now. Yeah, you know the Washington Post called i am the it candidate right now. You had to look no further than the Washington Post and the boston globe on the same day this week put out huge stories on scott walkers college years. He is the candidate everyone is talking about. He is a conservative republican but he comes across as a moderate. It is something that a lot of these candidates dont have. So he can bridge that gap. He can bring about policies of a ted cruz but have the demeanor of a jeb bush and republicans are excited about that. Jon in their minds he is a huge contrast daniel to president obama. Absolutely. I think the big central conservative republican argument against obama boils down to one of competency. A lot of republicans conservatives, they dont think president obama is competent. Scott walker meanwhile exudes competence. He turned around the state of wisconsin, a liberal state. He has won elections. That exists conservatives. They think he is, is the answer the remedy to the solutions that president obama you know, the problems that he has created and so it exists republicans because they think that this guy can govern well, which is what the next republican president will need to do. Jon but, colby we saw last time around there was virtually a new leader in the republican field every week. Is there a danger or a problem from potentially peaking too early here . Absolutely. He is the first socalled, frontrunner, other than jeb bush that were all talking about right now. We saw that in 2012. There was a new socalled frontrunner, maybe every week and then the risk would be, they would Say Something or do something and then they would plummet. You saw scott walker in london this week being extraordinarily cautious and careful not to answer questions, like questions about evolution and other things that could make headlines. But he is going to make headlines anyway. The difference with scott walker and some candidates he saw in 2012, he is a governor, he is a serious person. He has govern ad state a swing state and has done it well. He doesnt have a congressional voting record that is all muddled people can target him with. He is a strong contender. Jon he won three elections in a state not always very friendly to republicans. We asked our fox well, our fox news polling unit asked people to give letter grades to these candidates, to suggest how they think they would do as president. Interesting, first of all nobody gets an a but scott walker actually leads the pack in this fox news poll. He gets a b. Ben car son comes in bminus, rubio, bminus. Huckabee, cruz jeb bush, im sorry, rand paul, john kasich and rick perry all get c plus. Very bottom of the pack, Chris Christie gets a c. Daniel what does that say to you . Republicans are very critical about their candidates and they expect a lot of them and want to learn more. Taking them seriously. A b is a solid grade. There is lot of room for improvement. What does scott walker think about Foreign Policy . We know he is competent running a state but Foreign Policy doesnt have much experience in. People want to know what he thinks about these issues. Same with all these other candidates. They have their strengths. They dont have as big profiles as somebody like hillary clinton. So Republican Voters want to get to know these guys. They want to know what aspirations are for the country. They want to know how they talk to them. There are all these things that will come out in the next 11 months when the voting starts that i think will be extremely helpful. Jon fair or not colby, so much this early struggle is not so much about ideas and how you would govern, it is about how much money you can raise right . That is always what it is. You saw mitt romney and jeb bush started battling out for donors and fundraisers when it looked like mitt romney would run. When it became clear a lot of his old donors and supporters were leaning toward jeb bush he pulled back. In beginning stages here who can garner most support. Who can really fill their covers so they can go out and run successful campaigns in iowa and New Hampshire and onward. Jon colby eqitz from the Washington Post. Daniel halpern from the weekly standard. Thank you i. Jenna a lawyer found stabbed to death at a posh hotel blocks away from the white house. What police are say about a person of interest. Bitter cold temperatures. Take a look at this map right . It is an excuse to stay home with your valentine i suppose. It is tough, jon. That does not read fun. Jon a whole lot of freezing. Right. Meteorologist maria molina is standing by with the full forecast for all of us. Plus students and police come facetoface and it gets physical. What prompted all of this. [shouting] theres a gap out there. Thats keeping you from the healthcare you deserve. At humana, we believe the gap will close when healthcare gets simpler. When frustration and paperwork decrease. When grandparents get to live at home instead of in a home. So lets do it. Lets simplify healthcare. Lets close the gap between people and care. Jon the latest on some crime stories were keeping an eye on now. Deadly shooting along a Mardi Gras Parade route in new orleans. One man is dead, another critically injured and a suspect in custody is being questioned. Washington, d. C. Police are looking for the Publics Health and offering a 25,000 reward for anyone who can identify a person of interest from Surveillance Video taken at a luxury hotel. This after a lawyer was found stabbed to death in his room there this week. Caught on camera in california, police are searching for this man wearing lingerie breaking into a pickup truck. The thief jenna really . Jon calling the bra bandit, ran off into the desert with clothing cleaning supplies and loose change from the truck. Jenna what a bizarre commodity nation. Bring you uptodate on that story when we hear more. Fox extreme weather alert for you. Millions of people around this country feeling the freeze. Bonechilling temperatures across the country biting even some of warmest states. This brutal coldsnap, it is brutal is about to get even more severe. Meteorologist maria molina with details from the fox news weather center. What can you tell us about this . Today might feel warm for some people when you look at numbers coming up for monday morning across the northeast. It is about to get a lot colder out there. The actual temperatures are forecast to be below zero for some areas in new england. Talk about looking at current windchill temperatures. They are pretty brutal out there. Feels like 18 below in burlington. Even as you head farther south look at asheville the 12 degrees is current windchill temperature. Were tracking a storm system that will be impacting parts of new england. Were mentioning how many areas are picking up more than 50, 60 inches of snowfall, widespread area of new england. With very a winter storm, a powerful one, bringing blizzard conditions to the area. We have blizzard warnings in down east maine, New Hampshire, eastern parts of massachusetts right along the cape. Extreme coastal areas. Widespread across maine that will look at whiteout conditions, potential wind gusts of 50 miles an hour. Extreme coastal areas along the cape. Looking for wind gusts 70 miles per hour. Snowfall accumulations will be quite significant. We could look at more than a foot in spots. Here is timing of storm system by 3 00 p. M. We think the storm will ramp up and produce a lot of heavy snow across the area. That will continue through the overnight hours into sunday morning. For some areas stick around the day on sunday before the system gets out of here for the start of the work week. Snowfall totals quite heavy at times across parts of maine. Where youre looking potentially a foot of snow. Boston could pick up a foot of snow from the storm system. Jenna, i want to show you forecast morning low temperatures across the next couple importancings because it will get much colder out there. Below zero across portions new england. Monday morning these are not forecast windchills, these are actual temperatures below zero in buffalo, pittsburgh. One degree forecast for new york city. Those temperatures will also be below zero. Factor in the wind and the windchills will be dangerously cold out there. Jenna wow, it hits home. Seeing those numbers. Maria, thank you. Jon marias mom called from miami. Wants her to put on a sweater. Jenna it is a little chilly right. It is a good tip good tip. Jon new wave of Coalition Airstrikes taking out isis militants near the syrian iraqi bored as Terrorists Attack a base in iraq where hundreds of u. S. Marines are training troops. Well talk with captain chuck nash about the situation there on the ground. Get out of there, come on. Jon watch as officers pull off a swiftwater rescue after a car rolls over into a creek. The camera doesnt get much closer than this. Mounted on the rescuers body. Go ahead. Got you buddy. Pulling him out of the windowit right now. That sound good . Not being on this phone call sounds good. Its not muted. Was that you jason . It was geoffrey it was jason. It couldve been brenda. Whats that thing . I moved our old Security System out here to see if it could monitor the front yard. Why dont you switch to xfinity home . I get live video monitoring and 24 7 professional monitoring that i can arm and disarm from anywhere. Hear ye the awkward teenage one has arrived dont be old fashioned. Xfinity customers add xfinity home for 29. 95 a month for 12 months. Plus for a limited time, get a Free Security camera call 1800 xfinity or visit comcast. Com xfinityhome. Jon dramatic rescue caught on a Police Officers body camera after a car flips upside down into a rushing creek. Well get you out of there come on. Jon police in dallas just releasing this video after getting the call for help. Officers found the car on its roof, water pouring in. They were able to pry out the driver and pull him to safety. Amazingly, the driver was not seriously hurt. Jenna wow lucky there. Great rescue there. U. S. Led airstrikes striking isis terrorists in northeast syria today near the iraqi border. Meantime in iraqs Anbar Province Government Forces fend off isis attack at alasad airbase, big airbase, where hundreds of marines are training iraqi troops. This base is short time from the town of albaghdadi which the militants now largely control. Chuck nash is retired navy captain and a fox news military analyst. Nice to have you captain nash. How vulnerable are our marines today . Should we be concerned about their safety based on the latest information . Well, anytime you have troops in a combat zone like iraq we should be concerned but i would not be overly concerned. Massive installation and although there are 320 marines and probably some special forces there training, theyre training an entire iraqi division. So the place, theyre more than enough folks to defend the facility and the facility was set up to be defended. So, for the isis forces to present a very clear major danger, they would have to mass and as soon as they mass, well take them out with air cover. So i think this is something to be concerned about, yes but not overly concerned. Jenna interesting to see the news though, about what our own people could be dealing with in the region and contrast it with what is going on politically in washington d. C. With the president asking for authorization for use of military force and Congress Going back and forth about whether or not that is going to be approved. How do the politics of what is happening in washington d. C. , on that debate affect anybody we do have on the ground already in iraq . It doesnt affect them at all, jenna. The troops that are deployed, in iraq or anywhere else in the world, theyre going to do their job. Theyre Mission Oriented and focused doing their job. So the politics that roil washington d. C. , really has very little effect on our deployed forces. For example, if the marines felt under threat, could they fire the first shot . Or do they have to be wait to be attacked, just because were not, quote, unquote, at war with isis in that definition . Yeah. I dont think theyre going to plan offensive operations. For example, i would not expect our forces to be used in an offensives operation against the of albaghdadi to try to get the isis forces out of there but by the same token there is nothing in doctrine that makes you take the first shot. So, no, youre not going to absorb the first shot, if you think somethings coming preemptive selfdefense is preemptive selfdefense. Jenna we want to make sure our troops can protect themselves. Absolutely. Jenna numbers we have, moving constantly, place isis 31,000 strong thats according to the cia take us back and how you feel about our battle against isis over the last six months and what we need to do over the next six months to make sure that we continue to weaken them . Well i think they have been very successful in recruiting and the people that theyre recruiting are borderline mentally deficient. These people are psychopaths because if you would sign up an organization that is doing what these people publicly acknowledge and use as their recruiting media, then there is something wrong with you seriously wrong with you. And for them to be able to pull that many people, i think Something Like 700 frenchmen who are over there right now. If you look at some of the countries that have per capita highest number of recruits, it is the scandinavian countries. So these people are extremely disaffected and they have to be more than a little off to want to join an organization. Jenna but theyre dangerous so how do you defeat them . You have to kill them. Youre not going to negotiate these people back into sanity. Once you take somebody with that kind of a mental bent and then you put them out there and give them weapons and you actually let them go kill people you will not rehabilitate those folks. You will have to kill them. Jenna captain nash always nice to have you on the program. Gives us something to think about. Thank you very much. You bet. Jon as more of our daily life moves online we become more vulnerable to cyber attacks. Now president obama is outlining ideas about keeping our personal and information Information Safe from predators. As a new Intelligence Report suggests that cybercrime is bigger threat to National Security than terrorism. Plus the federal government now investigating the brutal murder of three muslim students. Was their religion a factor . Fbi director james comey is not shying away from controversy, breaking blunt remarks about racial bias and policing. Our media panel takes that on next. How much money do you have in your pocket right now . I have 40 21. Could something that small make an impact on something as big as your retirement . I dont think so. Well if you start putting that towards your retirement every week and let it grow over time, for twenty to thirty years that retirement challenge might not seem so big after all. Im louis, and i quit smoking with chantix. Quitting smoking is a challenge and its a lot easier to go into a fight when youve got somebody thats got your back. Having chantix as a partner made it more successful. Along with support, Chantix Varenicline is proven to help people quit smoking. Chantix helped reduce my urge to smoke. Some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. Some people had seizures while taking chantix. If you have any of these stop chantix and call your doctor right away. Tell your doctor about any history of Mental Health problems, which could get worse while taking chantix or history of seizures. Dont take chantix if youve had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. If you develop these stop chantix and see your doctor right away as some can be lifethreatening. Tell your doctor if you have a history of heart or blood vessel problems or develop new or worse symptoms. Get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. Decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. Use caution when driving or operating machinery. Common side effects include nausea trouble sleeping and unusual dreams. Chantix absolutely helped me quit smoking. Ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. Jenna weve seen time and again how our security can be threatened by attacks from cyberspace like hacking of Sony Pictures or hacking perhaps of our personal information personal financial information. Were now waiting for the president to address that growing risk. At a summit focused on cybersecurity and consumer protection. Kevin corke is watching this from the white house. Kevin . Jenna, good morning to you and youre right because from the white houses perspective it is all about the approach to combating not just Cyber Threats but mitigating the chance for more cyber attacks. I think you touched on something urgely important. What does it mean for you and me, and those watching at home about our personal security and safety online and more broadly the nations security . The president is expected to unpack the idea that cyber tools are necessary and should be utilized in every opportunity to obviously fight cyberterrorism. Take a listen to what he said last month in a speech at the cybersecurity center. Cyber threats pose enormous challenge for our country. It is one of the most serious economic and National Security challenges we face as a nation. Neither government nor the private sector can defend the nation alone. It is going to have to be a shared mission. Government and industry working hand in hand as partners. Reporter in a partnership but as you can probably imagine jenna, there is plenty of pushback on the hill especially given what happened with the nsa spying program. A lot of skepticism. Look what cory fritz a spokesman for House Speaker john boehner saying today, quote, unilateral topdown solutions will not solve americas cyber problem. The president should work with republicans to implement common sense measures that passed house recent years, with strong bipartisan majorities but stalled in the democratic controlled senate. What is the situation. Work with us together with a plan that will benefit the safety and security of american people. Well watch the story all day from the white house. For now, back to you. Jenna sounds great kevin. Thank you. Jon the director of the fbi james comey is confronting a politically charged issue at least during a speech at george town university. Comey says it is time to acknowledge Racial Bias Among Police and disconnect between Police Departments an communities of color. Listen. We are at a crossroads. As a society we can choose to live our lives every day raising our families, going to work, and hoping that someone somewhere will do something to ease the tension. To smooth over the conflict. We can roll up our car windows, turn up the radio and drive around these problems. Or we can choose instead to have an open and honest discussion about what our relationship is today. Jon joining us now, lynn sweet Washington Bureau chief for the chicago suntimes. And rich lowery, editor for national review. Also a fox news contributor. Thanks for being here, both of you. Hi, jon. Jon lynn, how are comeys remarks playing in the National Media . Well they certainly made news just as eric holders remarks made news and president obamas remarks made news when it comes to the tough situation of dealing and respecting police and still dealing with situations that may seem race related. So, i dont think that the, what was said was not as remarkable in this case as who said it, the fbi director. Jon comeys remarks kind of, i dont know book end i guess what his boss, rich, said in 2009. Eric holder, the attorney general, outgoing attorney general, said that we are a nation of cowards when it comes to discussing race. Well, right and media loved this speech, jon. They love this narrative the left, and administration love this narrative that we have a fundamentally racist criminal justice system, even though the best Research Shows thats not the case and, at times the speech was pretty juvenile, to be honest. He is quoting avenue q, the musical for the proposition that everyone is a little bit racist. I dont usually go to Broadway Musicals for my social Science Research so. I was not impressed. Jon we have elected the first black president , lynn. I mean does seem like things have come a long way in this country. Why is that not being, that kind of credit not being noted here . Well, there has been change but as president obama always first to say, change is hard and i think this will be one of the great unfinished, one of the great unfinished matters that the obama two terms will have to acknowledge. Actually whats interesting is that attorney general eric holder who is waiting to leave as soon as his successor Loretta Lynch will be, when that will be, he wants to create an institute for racial healing and reconciliation. Those are his thoughts now, that he told me in an interview recently. So if anyone thought that more than 100 years of racial strife in america probably double that, could be cured in a few years no matter who the president is, i think that would be naive assumption. Jon were still looking in pretty good place on that score look what is going on in the middle east. Standby. We want to get your thoughts on another developing story. The fbi is launching federal investigation into murders of a three muslim students. A husband and his wife and neighbor gunned down in chapel hill North Carolina. More than 5000 people attentiod religious authorities. They are looking whether religious hate played a role. Jonathan serrie joins us from atlanta. Reporter jon, fbi issued a statement assisting the chapel hill North Carolina police, assisting the age i. It open ad parallel inquiry to determine whether or not or federal laws were violated in this case. Funeral and prayer vigils around the country, drawn thousands of concerned citizens calling on authorities to investigate religion was a factor in the shootings. All three victims were muslim. I wont speak much about the investigation today at all because this is a time to be together. I would just recommit that were examining every possible investigative angle to include the potential for a hate crime. Reporter friends say the three victims volunteered at local homeless shelters, providing dental care and raised money to assist refugees overseas. Their alleged attacker, 46yearold craig steven hicks, faces three counts of firstdegree murder. Police say their preliminary investigation suggest that the shooting stems from an ongoing dispute over a parking space at the condominium complex where the accused and the victims lived. The defendants wife spoke to reporters. I cant say with my absolute belief that this incident had nothing to do with religion or victims faith but in fact was related to the longstanding parking dispute that my husband had with the neighbors. Reporter and the defendant in this case has requested representation by a public defender jon . Jon Jonathan Serrie reporting from atlanta. Lets bring back lynn sweet and rich lowery. You heard the statement from craig hicks wife rich. The media dont seem to want to accept that. Yes. Jon clearly this is hate crime one level or another. It appears he hated people who took his parking space. It is horrific crime it is horrible heartbreaking but the facts suggest so far, we have to wait and learn more that they dont fit the narrative some, especially media commentators want to put on this is explosion of outbreak of islamophobia and a hate attack targeting people for their muslim faith. Jon there has been worldwide condemnation of the American Media reaction, lynn and muslims especially all over the world are berating the American Media for not playing up what they see as a religious religious aspect to these murders. Well, this is something that i started my career as a street reporter in chicago and i would cover crime and once a neighbor dispute is involved in anything, you have to be very careful from drawing perhaps a larger conclusion and i think rich said it well. You know it is a horrific crime and it is a hate crime and it may be that as his wife suggested, that not only is there a parking dispute but she didnt rule out completely what might have motivated him. Once you have neighbors involved, it goes back to just some basic reporting but i think that is a pretty hard message perhaps for people looking at United States and looking at this horrific crime but lets remember when the horrible Oklahoma City bombings happened, a lot of people jumped to conclusions who it was and ended up being timothy mack way. Jon good remember, good reminder there. Lynn sweet, rich lowery, thank you. Thanks, jon. Jenna International Effort is underway to combat global warming.

Jenna students on hundreds of College Campuses around the world want their schools to divest themselves of oil fuel stocks. Global divesting day. Some economists say the movement lacks some common financial sense. William la jeunesse live from the west coast newsroom with more on what this is all about. Hi william. Reporter well, jenna get this, students at university of california already voted to divest from Nine Countries including the United States for drone strikes and jailing too many minorities. It is easy to dismiss their idealism if you own stock, drive a car, have a child or pay taxes todays story could affect you. Today is world divestment day on some 85 campuses here in the u. S. , students are demanding that the university divest themselves of any company that minds coal, or drills for oil and gas. All in the name of climate change. On global divestment day well show fossil fuel companies we are truly a force to be reckoned with and taking back our future. Students will hang banners protests confront trustees. Stanford is already out of coal stocks and 19 small colleges did get out of oil and gas stocks. Supporters like author naomi klein claim they can shape the debate and demonize oil like they did tobacco in the 9 s, when dozens of universities did divest portfolios of cigarette stocks. Fbns tracy byrnes says, students will ultimately hurt themselves. You have a right to those profits. If those profits are so illegitimate that harvard shouldnt be invested in them theyre also so illegitimate that taxpayers have a right to a much larger portion of them. If they shortchange a portfolio, that means the kids are getting shortchanged. That means their parents will have to pay more money. That doesnt help anyone at the end of the day. Reporter so Oil Companies claim theyre not worried if that is the case jenna, why are they calling reporters, hiring lobbyists and buying studies to tell us this is no big deal .
