Less. Bottom line up front. Okay . There in the back. Theres microphone so we can all hear you. Thank you. My quick question really here is comments on lebanon and how its impacting this current fight. Nobody seems to talk about it much. Nigel i know just did an article about drone usage by hezbollah, which i thought was interesting. Oh, lebanon. Okay. Yeah. Well, there is a small contingent of militants inside of lebanon who have made some noise for many years, but there are not a lot of them. The number of them particularly down south have been coopted by the government. Ere were fears early on that a lot of this contingent was going to be activated by the war in syria. In fact, the whole society was going to go down the tubes. That is still a worry and the longer that the war goes on the more that worry increases. But i have been really surprised at lebanons resiliency, actually, whether you attribute that to actors we dont like, like hezbollah keeping a lid on things, or whether yo

And five arab nations attacked in nighttime raids using land and seabased u. S. Aircraft, as well as tomahawk cruise missiles launched from navy ships in the red sea and the northern persian gulf. Washingtonorts that informed bashar alassads thernment hours before americanled Coalition Counter the extremisthealth strongholds. Again, with four president obama to make remarks on those airstrikes against isis this morning.

We know what we have to do to avoid irreparable harm. We have to cut Carbon Pollution in our own country to prevent the worst effects of Climate Change. We have to adapt to the impacts that unfortunately we can no longer avoid. We have to Work Together as a Global Community to tackle this threat before it is too late. We cannot condemn our children and their children to a future that is beyond their capacity to repair. Not when we have the means, the technological innovation and scientific imagination to begin the work of repairing it right now. As one of americas governor said, we are the first generation to feel the impacts of Climate Change and the last generation that can do something about it. Today im here personally as leader of the Worlds Largest economy and its secondlargest emitter to say that we have begun to do something about it. The United States have made ambitious investments in clean energy, and reductions in our Carbon Emissions. We now harnessed three times as much f
To understand the nature of the threat were facing from this group and also syria, which is involved with the group, you need to see that his is one of the few times we have watched a different affiliate in the greater Al Qaeda Network in order to carry out a specific threat against the United States. We have other sources we can look at and say, they have been quite grating or coordinating with each other on local issues. There are all sorts of reports of alshabaab members in africa or even in yemen helping out with fights there, and you have also reports of aqim pretty much all over north africa, cord knitting with different grips. This is the first time we have seen a specific plot against the United States where two different groups are coordinating with each other. But this is not the only place we are seeing this. We have also had a threat from both aqim and together to the United States for their attacks on isis. This is again an unprecedented that we have these huge groupings o
Were getting a new look at what happened just shortly an unarmed black man was shot and killed by a Police Officer in South Carolina just last weekend. Now that officer has since been arrested and charged with murder but today it was confirm confirmed that he has been accused of using Excessive Force in the past. Just released dashcam video from the patrol car. What does it show us . We see in this video you see walter scott. You see him pull slowly in the parking lot in this this mercedes. Then you can hear that he says youve been pulled over because he has a broken taillight and then he asks for license and registration. And then a couple of minutes after that thats when walter scott opens his car door, and he runs. You can see some of the audio and you hear commotion. You hear running. But at that appointment the open encounter stops and you dont see anything more. There does appear to be a second person in the vehicle with wall walter scott. We havent identified yet the second pers
