parading through baghdad, sparking fears that the country could descend into an all-out civil war. molly is live in washington with the latest are reaction from there. molly, as we know, president obama is sending 300 military advisers to iraq. but one iraqi cleric is already warning against that move. tell us why, molly. ar them la, high-level shiite cleric according to sky news warned on friday if u.s. military advisers come into iraq, the cleric said, quote, we will be ready for you. one fox news military analyst says this is a dangerous mission for those advisers. if we said them over there, they re going to make them targets. who do we know 0 in the iraqi army that isn t going to flip on them? and you have the green on blue. so that s why i m then even if that doesn t happen, i don t think what they re going to do is going to make any difference because we had a failed strategy. that s what worries me.
states and iraq and we re going to ramp up that support through training, through the provision of equipment and in other ways, and in the context of advisers. u.s. officials say there are manned and unmanned u.s. aircraft flying over iraq 24 hours a day now, on intelligence missions. molly, thanks so much for that perspective from d.c. meanwhile, in afghanistan, hundreds of people taking to the streets of kabul protesting fraud in last week s presidential runoff. adding to the tension, the country s former foreign minister accuses electoral officials of trying to rig the vote against him. the preliminary results are are expected to be released on july 2nd, but abdullah abdullah says he will not recognize the results. also in ukraine there is relief to report today. we re told there are no large scale fighting today. that one day after the country s new president ordered a unilateral cease-fire with those

there, mine, what do you think they can realistically achieve? they have 300 officers, advising the iraqi military and then got al sadr on the side. his his folks are running around killing sunnis, too. it takes it requires incredible leadership that al maliki just doesn t seem to have. i just don t see how this particular prime minister is capable of bringing this to a conclusion that is going to preserve the integrity of the government the way it currently exists. i think that it says a lot about his leadership and his failed leadership and also the manner in which our president with drew. i think that that in many respects also just bled away a lot of goodwill, lot of effort that s been made all over that country with american forces working on building infrastructure. building relationships and training and not just army but also the military police. and the rule of law of iraq is eroding. and i think that in many respect
the administration tried to do something secretly says the wall street journal but interest didn t work. to get your reaction. well, ultimately, as you know, there are your use all over the country and the world now that i think represents pretty serious danger in this country. this administration talked about aligning ourselves with iran and that will only give them additional credibility and if iran gains a nuclear weapons capability, which i think this helps them in that pursuit, we will need a new calendar. lit change our world that much. our children will then walk in and shout talk dollar terrorism. it just boggles and be wilders me. we have to leave it there. thank you for joining us. sfx: car unlock beep.
