We have to work now so this is not the worlds next aids. Viewing the world in a whole new way. The founder of gopro, whose invention has made home videos quite an adventure. Welcome to our viewers on Public Television in america and also around the globe. Today, turkey rolled out going it alone and launching a ground offensive against Islamic State militants. I. S. Has been fighting Kurdish Forces across the border in the syrian town of kobane. It appeared kobane was about to fall to the jihadists, but now Kurdish Forces say with the support of u. S. Airstrikes they have been able to push i. S. Fighters back. The fight for kobane is far from over. Five american of airstrikes on the town today. Even from this distance, its clear the socalled Islamic State have some control here. But inside kobane, street by street, a senior official told the bbc i. S. Are losing ground. Yesterday they controlled one third of the city of kobane, but airstrikes and official operations opushed them back, and now they are not controlling one third of kobane. They are controlling some houses in eastern and southeastern sides of kobane. As fighting continues, turkey looks on. These turkish tanks have been in position for a week. Kurds are infuriated that while kobane suffers, they look on. Tic to says it is unrealis imagine them launching a ground offensive against Islamic State on their own. There are still 1500 to 2000 fighters,kobane, all but we are still giving them humanitarian aid. Its not possible to give the military help, but we have to protect our border. If anybody hits us, we will fire back. This is what turkey would rather see. Fighters, notmy turks, battling i. S. In south kobane. Y, thisse men and turke is a fight to defeat syrian president assad as well as Islamic State. For these kurdish protesters near the border, they say turkey will not protect their interests. We are calling on america to help kobane. The turkish government wants kobane to fall. They are clearly supporting Islamic State, allowing Islamic State to kill our people and blow up our homes. The mutual distrust between kurds and turks kobane is makings rescue all the more difficult. For more on the military and diplomatic efforts taking place on the ground, i spoke with james jeffrey, former u. S. Ambassador to both turkey and iraq. There is growing pressure on turkey to join the fight against ankara is extremely reluctant. What will it take to bring them in . A stronger commitment by the u. S. And other countries to carry the fight also to assad. Turkey fears the assad regime and its iranian backers as much as it fears isis, and for good reason. They will have to be given take. You have been u. S. Ambassador to turkey. What is going on behind closed doors . The turks are going to make a very strong case for a nofly zone, supported by the United States as well as turkey, and internationally sanctioned. And more effort against assad. The turks want the kurds in kobane taking the fight not only to isis, but also to assad. What you think it will be . I hope it will be that we will also take on assad and do t he nofly zone. Secretary kerry indicated, we have to change of policy, frankly. The foreign minister says it is not realistic for turkey to conduct a ground operation on its own. Has the u. S. Box itself and by saying no Ground Forces . I have long advocated Ground Forces, not only observers but if necessary our own combat forces. How can we ask of the people to send young men and women to die, and we are not willing to send a soldier on the ground . Suggesting kobane was not strategically important, what message does that send . It is in cover hands of all. We have american pilots risking the lives, so why would we Say Something so criminally stupid . What are the people fighting for kobane going to think . It is in cover hence the ball for me, because this is strategically vital to the middle east. Everybody is watching. How about iraq . Are they working . They are working better than initially, because we are doing more. Nonetheless, isis has continued to advance along the euphrates waiver river to western baghdad and they are in position to put pressure on baghdad. How about iraqi forces. Will they be ready to seize the opportunity created . Iraqi soldiers are standing and fighting, but they run out of supplies, run out of logistics. They are not well led. They are not running away, but they are often overrun. We have to provide Logistical Support and other leadership that we can do without a lot of troops on the ground. Perhaps these people can take the fight to the enemy if we support them. Thank you for joining us. Turbulence returned to wall street for a third day.

They called as the world bank committed 400 million on top of the imfs 130 million in emergency financing. The British Government has said some airline and train passengers arriving in the u. K. Will be screened for ebola. Lyons,her day in sera and there are more bodies sierra leone, and there are more bodies to be cleared from the streets. Ebola is spreading fast. Nearly 4000 people have died, and the number is rising. In washington during a meeting between the world bank and imf, a top u. S. Official says he has not seen anything like this for decades. I will say that in the 30 years i have been working in Public Health, the only thing like this has been aides. We need to work now so this is not the worlds next aids. Following americas decision, the u. K. Has announced it will screen people arriving at two International Airports and a train station. People arriving from countries affected by the outbreak. Our focus is on keeping the traveling public and our colleagues safe. We will work with the government to make sure we can intimate measures to screen passengers if there is any risk of contamination at the airport. The Foreign Office is also investigating reports of a british citizen suspected of having ebola who has died in macedonia. In madrid, the nursing assistant became infected after treating a patient. In australia, a man in quarantine tested negative for ebola. But Health Care Workers are at a high risk of getting infected. According to the world health organization, more than 240 Health Care Workers in guinea, liberia, nigeria, and see her lyons have developed the disease. More than 120 Health Care Workers have died from the virus, one in 16. Every death of a Health Care Workers significantly diminishes the ability of countries to respond to ebola effectively. The race is on to find a cure. They have started production of 10,000 doses of a vaccine, an unprecedented decision considering that trials are at such an early stage. For more on the response to the ebola outbreak, i spoke every time ago with dr. Gavin skinner from the department of Public Health science at penn state hershey. They will be screening passengers. Is that enough . It gives us another level of protection. About 150 people from guinea, leone arrivesierra every day. We will take your temperature and ask questions. Where have you traveled from, how are you feeling, who do of contact with, where are you going . And a third critical function, advice of what to do if they develop a fever. Is that adequate . Should more information be given . What they need to do, if they have left the airport and develop a fever, what do they do next . We want them to stay home. What is coming in winter . Flu season, and we do not want patience with fever and body aches and fatigues sitting next to people like a woman who is pregnant or a child, and possibly risking spreading ebola. You were in nigeria, where the outbreak was successfully contained. You were part of the effort. How did they do it . The Nigerian Government had a plan, a community plan. They brought everyone in from the community and did not stigmatize the ebola patients, because of years and years of experience with hivaids. They made it an incentive for people to report. They celebrated every success they had, and every person that was in the neighborhood, from Church Elders to multinationals to corporate businessmen to academia come a they all played a part. The head of the cdc has said that he has not seen anything like ebola since aids. Is that comparison at . At the moment the situation in west africa is completely out of control. We recently had our first patient here in the u. S. Look at the way we treated that patient. We stigmatized them, treated them like criminals. That is very much what we did in the early days of hivaids. The u. S. Is going to liberia to build treatment centers. How is that going to work . It is very much needed. One of the Biggest Challenges we are facing as we build these new ebola hospitals or facilities, where are we going to find the staff . Not just doctors and nurses. All the staff that make the meals, cleanup, where are they going to come from . How are they going to be protected, the Health Care Workers . As we heard, they are most at risk. Very much so. There are two levels of protection. We were attacked by the local community in nigeria. They didnt understand. Also, do we have enough bleach, on a protective equipment . Do we have all the systems in place to deal with Waste Management . And a blood test to take each day . Thank you for joining us. Nearly 70 people have been killed in two suicide attacks in yemen.
