part of the court, which is their stronghold. it s had an effect. the u.s. has been pressing pakistan to take on the group more aggressively on the ground. it seems to be having an effect both here as well as some 3,000 counter terror operations across the country. now, as the pakistani military took the fight to the taliban, there have been fears among politicians about blow back. we may have seen that today but one u.s. official saying that this could be seen as an act of desperation as the pakistani taliban comes under pressure and remember this is a matter of competition, that the taliban capability by carrying out - attacks like this and when you have groups like isis which is drawing support and members and leaders, even the spokesman from a pakistani taliban in effect changes sides and going to isis. it s a competitive atmosphere. they see that isis is cap vat ti
window, it becomes an issue. thank you, jennifer coats. john, this is interesting. much of this is coming from kgo. we have some of our footage. no one has a mask on either. protesters who have turned violent. in full view of the camera. you can bet law enforcement will go over the footage to identify and legal action taken. the president s decision to attempt to rescue the hostage held in yemen is drawing support. the mission is from both sides of the aisle. although american journalist luke somers and another died in the raid, they are backing the policy not to negotiate with territories. if we are extorted to pay ransom to al qaeda to blow up women and men and children, that is a bad plan to start with. i agree with the president s
enough with this nonsense and we ll cut back until you fix your silly wayings. you are right. there are problems with the un. it is better than the precursor which was the league of nation . this is not the first silly thing that happened in the un. we have other ways to trade and blockade and tariffs other than with drawing support for the un and run away. it looks like we are running from cover. support the un. free trade is the greatest way to foster peace in the world and costs us nothing and grow our economy. we ll not need the un. and guys we have to leave it there. it is tremendous and i feel ready to take on the world.
