Pushed out by president obama. In a move that further consolidates National Security decisionmaking in the white house. And raises questions about the direction of the administrations Foreign Policy last two years. For more im join by wall street journal columnist Dan Henninger, Brett Stevens and Editorial Board member matt kaminski. Whats fascinating here, many on the right and left in talking about the hagel resignation, base he canally say the problem with obamas Foreign Policy isnt hagel, wasnt hagel, its in the white house. The thing is chuck hagel is a nonenty as a chief at the pentagon. He started out very badly at his confirmation hearings, could never articulate the policy and then after he was thrown over the white house spun he was really not up to the job, they picked him for the job in the first place. But he was not the problem with the Foreign Policy you say hes a nonentity. Thats the white house spin. But is that fair or was the real problem the fact that the white hous
[ gunfire ] men dressed in black seen here faces concealed, carrying automatic weapons forcing a mother to use her Security Code to open the door to the offices of a satirical magazine. Inside staffers were holding an editorial meeting, unaware they would be murdered within moments. Witnesses say the terrorist cowards screamed allua akbar. Among those targeted and killed, four of the most famous and fearless cartoonists in france. Editor stephane charbonnier. Stood by the lead cartoonist as well as 57yearold Bernard Bernard [ gunfire ] but the assassinations did not end with these men and the others inside. The bloodthirsty terrorists also murdering a Police Officer as he appeared to be lying on the ground hurt putting his hands up in surrender. You saw that there. Surrender however did not matter. He was shot pointblank and the terrorist calmly returned to a getaway car taking off. The french president actually raced to the scene vowing to track down the killers. Again, at this hour w
And keir simmons is live at amman, jordan. And how do we know it is a Jordanian Air strike and the u. S. Saying they still cannot verify that fact . Reporter well, i think it is extremely difficult to verify because nbc news understands from a senior u. S. Official that the family learned that she had died because they were sent a photograph of her and that indicates that she did those pictures arent inconsistent with traumatic injuries. But of course it is very difficult from a photograph to be more specific than that. The family once they got that corroboration, issued a statement describing themselves as you can imagine, as heartbroken, talking about the incredible work that kayla was doing, going to help Syrian Refugees in turkey and then in syria.

Welcome to hannity. Tonight president obama addresses the ongoing fight against the islamic state, which he says, of course, is the j. V. Team and theyre not islamic. Watch this. Isil still has the ability to threat and inspire attacks. So weve seen terrible bombings in iraq and in jordan and lebanon, saudi arabia, yemen, and afghanistan. Attacks on an istanbul airport, a restaurant in bangladesh, bastille day celebrations, and a church in france and a Music Festival in germany. I do want to step back and note the broader progress that has been made in this campaign so far. Two years ago isil was racing across iraq and to many observers isil looks invisible. Isil has not had a major Successful Operation in either syria or iraq in a full year. The president also talked about his administrations latest scandal, sending 400 million in cold, hard cash in the dark of night to iran while tehran was releasing american hostages. Look at this. Its been interesting to watch this story surface. S
