Except for the baby. An ploacia emotional battle o reunite this mother with her children. Pulls at my heart. Tonight a piece of nostalgia mixed with a bit of americana. A thundering herd of bison. Back home and free to roam. Good evening everyone, thanks for joining us. Im adam may in for joie chen. , we begin with the fast moving developments in syria. As the white house authorizes surveillance flights and ponders other potential military action he, there are growing concerns tonight over americans drawn into this conflict. This is raising security and safety issues with some americans fighting for the rebels and other americans held captive. First of all i want to thank you all for coming out here. Emotional and relieved, journalist peter curtis speaking publicly for First Time Since hihis reason sunday from jabat l nusra. What kindness they have in their hearts and to all those people i say a huge thank you from my heart from the bottom of my heart. I had no idea when i was in prison, i had no idea that so much effort was being expended on my behalf. And now having found out i am just overwhelmed with emotion. Curtis has been spending his first few days as a free man reuniting with loved ones. But as one mother celebrated her sons time. Im sending this message to you abu bakr albaghdadi. A plea by another mother for her son still held captive. Intersteven sotloff has been held for over a year. I ask you to not. Punish my son for matters he has no control over. Follow the example of the prophet mohamed who protected the people of the book. Sotloff appeared in the execution video of james foley. A man with a british accent said the conduct of the u. S. Would dirdetermine whether sotloff wod live or die. There are dozens of american citizens fighting for the Islamic State. This idea that foreign fighters could get over there get radicalized, get trained and come back to the home land in the United States or in any other nation. That threat from operatives holding u. S. Passports. News of the First American fighting for the Islamic State in syria. 33yearold Douglas Mcarthur mccain was killed. Its unclear how exactly he came to join the Islamic State, or what led him down that path. But friends and relatives struggle to reconcile his end with the man they knew. My cousin is not a terrorist. And this is the first that ive heard that he was connected to the jihadi or whatever. I think maybe my cousin could have lost his identity because thats not who he is. To them, he was a fun loving father and an aspiring rapper with lots of friends. Family members say they knew he had traveled to turkey from california earlier this year but they were unaware he was fighting in syria a world away from his home in america. Going by the name duali. This man whom mccain identified as a close friend, troy castagar, a convert to islam who died while fighting for al shabab insurgent. Omar hamami rose in the ranks as a fearless commander and skilled prop bega todayist. Propagandist. A 20something american who grew. In florida. This an chur group up in florida. Then a huge blast. Authorities say abu haraya traveled back home to florida once before carrying out that suicide mission. The fbi says returning american fighters remains a concern. They have gone there, in huge numbers, to join the fight with groups like al nusrra or i. S. I. L. The going is very worrisome. It is the comingout that worries me even more. It is the reason that we, inteinterpol and others are worg about the socalled syria traveler threat. It has been estimated that more than 3,000 foreign fighters from the west have joined the Islamic State and possibly a hundred or more americans. The question is how does Douglas Mccain and people like him become radicalized . The author of the best selling group terrorists and love, the real lives of islamic radicals. Ken, youre given unprecedented access to prisons in saudi arabia. You interviewed a number of these radicals. Can you maybe shed a little bit of light on a Common Thread among these individuals . Well, one Common Thread is theyre all young men. And they tend to be between the ages of 18 and their early 30s. Is that because they are susceptible at this particular age . They are susceptible at this particular age and they are looking for answers like young men everywhere. They are looking for a path for their life to take. And this radical islamic cause provides them with an answer, with a meaning in their life and with companionship and fellowship. It appears on the surface ends up joining this group like i. S. These americans are lost, Douglas Mccain who was killed over there was a young man on a search on the margins of the law, he couldnt find work that he enjoyed, he couldnt find mission or meaning, until he towrnheturned to islam. He wanted to be a truer and truer muslim. Did they feel disenfranchised in america . They dont feel the norm and alienated. Alienization is dramatic. You go shoot up a school or assassinate or join the Islamic State in iraq and syria. Groups like i. S. Or al qaeda, what advantage do they have getting an american . They have this pure ideology. They have this way that communicates that this is the true islam. And if you join our cause, and you die in our cause, you will be a martyr going to heaven. And this is the doctrine that is inculcated in these young men. And now with the internet it is a way to reach out even further. Is this a big propaganda for these groups . It is a ideology. Do they get to say look, we have an american . Oh thats wonderful. Because every time they have an american it tweaks the nose of the great satan, the United States. They show that they are the ones with the ideology. They are at the vanguard, let everyone follow. The question is, how dangerous is this . We are layering from the taint that there are concerns this from the state department that their concern is that this may come to the United States. Theyre focused on iraq and syria, they are focused on prop began today victories, americans dying, americans being beheaded. But i think the real threat is in the middle east right now. All right, ken bowen, president of terror free america. Thank you for joining us. My pleasure. Thank you for having me. Coming up, chaos in ferguson, police with military equipment. A critical look at where that gear comes from and who pays for it. Also tonight children kidnapped and hidden overseas. Im very relieved to have the kids out of afghanistan. This has been a long, grueling process that has that we have tried to work on for months and months and months. And so their safety was a real concern. Inside one mothers struggle coming up. B. Fault lines labor day marathon the true cost of cheap labor nothing can be worse than this people burnt to ash. Horrendous conditions. Traffic labor on us bases. Management stealing wages. Exploited children put to work. How many of you get up at 4 or 5 oclock in the morning to go out to the fields . Dont miss our Award Winning series fault lines labor day marathon only on Al Jazeera America up. More than two weeks after a Police Officer shot and killed unarmed teen Michael Brown in ferguson, missouri, the governor today named a new director of the department of public safety. Oversees state police and the National Guard and that office came under heavy criticism for the heavy handed tactics employed during the protesting. Congressional leaders are now offering to take a second look at those methods in which Law Enforcement handled the aftermath. America tonights Lori Jane Gliha takes us back to one of the most hectic nights of protest. Why so many agencies are getting help from the federal government when it comes to beefing up on tactical gear. Reporter the shouting and chanting in ferguson has quieted down. The lines of armed officers like these have gone away. And the roads are now clean and clear. But the physical reminders of the clash that littered the streets are now front and center in a debate about Police Strategy and equipment. The. Okay, we have been fighting all sorts of things, smoke canister in the field which means this one right here is a right smoke multiprojectile 5 that came out of here. These are items left behind after some night of looting and gun shots and shattered store fronts as well as peaceful marches and this militarystyle vehicle. Heavily armed police crunched over roadblocks made of heavy bricks and used various tactics to disperse the crowds. This is a chemical irritating agent. Law enforcement officials defended some of their tactics. We have been criticized for using swat trucks during protest. We did not deploy those into the crowd until things deteriorated and tonight, we use a swat truck and another large vehicle to get into a violent dangerous area to extract a gunshot victim. But many argue the equipment is too much like the military and less like a Police Department tasked with protecting the people. Even the president weighed in. I think its probably useful for us to review how the funding has gone, because there is a big difference between our military and our local Law Enforcement. And we dont want those lines blurred. Reporter at departments across the nation access to used military equipment is common. A dod Surplus Property Program Allows for local departments to receive free gear. It has handed over more than 5. 1 billion worth of used humvees, helicopters guns and specialized robots since it was created in the 1990s. How and where and under what circumstances the equipment actually get used is up to local Law Enforcement agencies to determine. Reporter but its not just military castoffs. Nick granani oversees the deployment of Homeland Security gear. Terrorist activity like at Boston Marathon or a hurricane like hurricane sandy. Since 2003 the region received more than 100 million for Law Enforcement Fire Departments and Public Health facilities through the urban areas security initiative. Nearly 18 million went for Law Enforcement purposes only including the purchase of aircraft, radios. Ear plugs. Helmets, gloves computers and tactical robots as well as some of the more visible military type equipment that popped up on the streets. Like the big vehicle, everybody is referring the the linko bearcat, the things you see that they carry their weapons on and the night vision goggles. With new york city receiving the most, the department of justice also runs a program that gives grants to local police. This fiscal year, states received about 189 million, as part of the edward burn memorial justice Assistance Grant program, it provides aid from everything Research Equipment and canines but secludes some purchase of vehicles and drones. Regardless how all the equipment and gear converged on the ferguson area, congressional leaders are now vowing to take it under review starting next month. Lori jane gliha, al jazeera. And the militarization of local Police Departments goes at a hef heavy price. First off do you think its enough outrage on capitol hill . Libertarians we criticize all aspects of government when its overreaching and this was a very big problem for a long time and sometimes a new story has to happen, its unfortunate it has to happen in this circumstance but now bills are introduced and were starting to solve the problem. You say its overreaching, how so and who is benefiting from this financially . Thats a good question. Police officers themsz i think probably enjoy it, and thats not Police Officers themselves i think probably enjoy it. Those who arent benefiting are the American People in terms of being raided by cops and the crime going down. Im one that doesnt think that the increased police force is the reason for the decreased crime rate. Joe biden says crime has gone down everywhere. This is just the beginning. Was there a big selling point, when they were rolling out this equipment during the Clinton Administration was the fact that they said police were being outgunned by drug dealers on the streets. It was an issue. But remember there was never a bad vote from a politician. Are and voting for Police Officers. Exactly. Those things have been good. For 40 years going back to the drug war to the war on crime starting in the late 60s moving forward is a bipartisan affair. We have had people voting for more police and more criminal enforcement and no one would think it would change the mill triesation of militarization of police. What about this stuff out there, theres a lot of stuff sitting in Police Departments. Representative johnson has a bill to sort of stop it. They have 4. 5 billion worth of this. They have it we have to take it away from them. Take it away . It has no Law Enforcement purpose. All right trevor. Trevor burris, with the Cato Institute of congressional studies.

Now a snapshot of stories making headlines on americ america t Jpmorgan Chase and at least one other bank were hacked by russians. The fbi believes the attack was in retaliations for the sanctions handed down by the u. S. And the eu for to the russians for ukrainian crisis. It doesnt appear that the russian government was involved. A man thought to be a serial kill cerm left four dead and several wounded. Alexander hernandez was also charged with animal cruelty for allegedly shooting three dogs. Authorities say the attack was random. Are an american journalist, peter theo curtis, kidnapped nearly two years ago by an al qaeda fealt affiliate was hander to u. N. Officials. Gaza israeli war over 50 days of bombardments more than half a million displaced gazans are returning home. In israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is facing fears criticism over this costly conflict that really has no winners and leaves much unresolved. The truce may be holding up in gaza but an Al Qaeda Group captured the sole bother crossing in the golan heights. Palestinian healthy workers say 2100 people, most of them civilians were killed in the conflict. Israels are death toll is 61 sociologist engineers and 4 civilians. Al jazeeras Andrew Simmons has more about palestinians rebuilding their lives after 50 days of conflict. Reporter a city in ruins. The flags of hamas and other palestinian factions, leadership that believes its become more popular in the wake of the seven week war, and dismisses any suggestion that its made concessions. What do you say to the israeli claim that you accepted now what you rejected a month ago . Translator its not true. What happened before was, they wanted us to negotiate for months and years without any kind of constraints or guarantees. But this time before we even sit down at the negotiating table again the israelis have agreed to lift the blockade to end their attacks and to ease the fishing rights and restrictions on goods coming into gaza. Israeli is trying the same tactic, military victory. But as both sides are are claiming victory this is the harsh reality on the ground. Families returning to what remains of their homes and trying owork out what to do next. And the United Nations estimates without new lifting of restrictions rite across the board it would take Something Like 15 years to rebuild the gaza strip. Its thought around half a Million People have lost their homes. It still isnt clear how much different the easing of israels blockade will make to the supply of Building Materials and support. This man has lost his business and his home. It will be a year before he can clear the site and think about rebuilding. Abdul rahaman al sheik understands why the palestinians must claim a victory after so much sacrifice but he isnt optimistic about this one being any better than the last. Until they agree, until we find in the two sides especially in the israeli side, find some people believing that they are right, until this it will be continue war after war after war. So now there is calm. Fishermen using their nets further out to sea and more help on the way for those in desperate need. But whats been achieved in this truce appears remarkably similar to the agreement after the last war that ended only 21 months ago. And this deal could be more fragile than the last one. Andrew simmons, al jazeera, gaza city. Turning now to afghanistan. A major setback in the ongoing president ial elections, which have been plagued with allegations of fraud. It has been nearly two months since nearly 60 of eligible voters braved potential terror attacks to participate in that countrys firstever transfer of power in modern history. Abdalla abdalla claims that his opponent ashraf ghani stuffed ballot boxes. Observers from the audit say three are unhappy with the u. N. Process. The withdrawal is regrettable but will not descrups the completion of a robust audit. The independent Elections Commission is calling on candidates to return to the table. That audit was part of a u. S. Brokered deal to ease tensions and help afghanistans new democracy. Also from afghanistan, a story about a child abduction. Imagine your estranged spouse taking the kids for weekend and then dispearg disappearing. 16 months ago a british mother found that her afghan born husband had taken her three sons, including her youngest just two months okay old. Al jazeeras Jennifer Glasse has that story. Its been list than a day since attorney kim motley picked up three boys in northern afghanistan where her former husbands been hiding them. Motley brought them to the afghan capital. I think theyre very traumatized. They are speaking dhari. They are very much connected with each other. They are the eldest one is being very paternal with his two younger brothers so i dont think they quite understand whats going on. This is the first of their trip back to england, motley is their guardian now thanks to means through british and afghan courts. This was a grueling process. There were times when we didnt think we would be where we are but we are. Last month the mother contacted motley. The childrens afghan father had taken them for a scheduled visit and never returned. A British Court jailed the father for abduction but he refused to say where the children were. The mother feared they were lost to her forever. Its taken motley nearly a year to find them. First laying the legal work and then working with afghan authorities in an unusual collaboration. Afghanistansing Legal Process is still forge. I really think that this, what weve done is a true blood pressurblueprint, to get childrn safely and also legally. Motley herself is a mother of three. Thats part of the reason she says she got involved in this case. She cant imagine this happening to her children. Her biggest fear that the fathers average 15 might prevent them from leaving afghanistan. Motley was careful to keep her movements under wraps. At the kabul airport, officials are uncharacteristically efficient. They want photos taken. The paperwork is ready. Im happy because they are going home, to see the mother, im happy for this. Reporter their temporary passports are stamped. Lifting off of afghanistan to dedubai. This is a long grueling process that we have tried to work on for months and months and months so their safety was a real concern. Only the oldest boy speaks any english. He hasnt been in school for the year hes been in afghanistan. Going back will be a tough transition. Im worried about the time together. Mom is going to need help, shes going to need hem with the children with their psychological development. Shes going oneed help with the children financially and so you know i hope that everything goes forward as its supposed to. Reporter hours later motley arrives in Northern England with three tired children. Turned them over to the mother in a private room at manchester airport. They dont truly understand what has hapt, what has happened, why it happened so they walked into the room very shocked. Very happy to have them back. How do you feel . Delighted. There may be some tough patches in the road ahead for this reunited family but for now a rare happy ending for three boys who will now grow up in britain, not afghanistan. Thank you very much. Jennifer glasse, al jazeera. Former San Francisco mayor gaifn newsom. He was once a rising political star. Only paid sick leave in the United States. Universal health care before obamacare. University preschool, university after school. Bold and brash, the Lieutenant Governor is no longer in the drivers seat, hes in the back seat. Now joie chen hits down with the darling of the Democratic Party to find out how hes reinventing himself, next. Are. In the aftermath of northern californias strongest earthquake in 25 years a familiar face reappeared in the spotlight. Gavin newsom. The former mayor of San Francisco and the states current Lieutenant Governor. Newsom is best known for leading the charge on same sex marriage a decade ago. America tonights joie chen sat down with newsom before that quake hit to talk about his political aspirations. Just a few years ago, gavin newsom was the golden boy of california politics. Mayor of one of americas favorite cities. Almost unnaturally telegenic, a stunning wife at his side. But then, newsom suffered what was, for a got to be on the radar political junkie, a devastating blow. He got elected to one of the least visible jobs in state politics. Tell me who you are and what you do. Gavin newsom, Lieutenant Governor of california. Thats not really who i am. But i but title wise thats who you are . Title wise ill give you that. Im more than that. Its hard to like newsom. Hes disarmingly frank. Where has gavin newsom be been for the past few years . Ive been busy, but remarkably, i could come up with a cure positive cancer and id be lucky to get a cub reporter to cover it. Very different than being mayor of San Francisco. Hes comically candid about his role as deputy to governor jerry brown whos likely to win an unprecedented four term this fall. It is a big turn around from a decade ago, then the brand influence mayor of San Francisco newsom made headlines worldwide for signing off on same sex marriage licenses. Against the law in his state. And in every other, at the time. In 2004, the court said, gavin newsom, you youre wrong. Absolutely. Youre wrong. Absolutely a lot of people said i was wrong. Lots of people said you were wrong. And my father. And the Democratic Party not just the republican party. But newsom found a chance to push the gay movement forward. Too fast to far too soon. And it was offensive to me. Everything again what i believe my core values and principles were being set aside for other peoples political careers. But whats the point of a political career unless youre going to stand up for people . Since then 19 states and the District Of Columbia have approved same sex marriage but newsom declines to say, i told you so. Instead he says hes just glad his city was on the leading edge. The ten years that have changed so much did that happen because more liberals stepped up and made this work or because more conservatives became more aware of lgbtq people in their families . I think it was hundreds of thousands of conversations that were won, birthday parties at the dinner table at breakfast driving to work. Newsom made a getting ahead of the establishment approach the hallmark of his leadership. When i was mayor we had the highest minimum wage in the United States, only paid sick leave in the United States, universal health care before obamacare, universal preschool universal after school. But there were hire profile miss high profile missteps. A first maicial marriage failed. Newsoms political life has bounced back, as number 2 to an equally outspoken governor. How many people can get stoned and still have a great state or a great nation . I think we need to stay alert if not 24 hours a day more than some of the pot heads might be able to put together. Brown and newsom clashed over marijuana legislation. Newsom favors decrilzation beyond californias current nonmedical use. Against the man once named governor moonbeam. He made a flippant comment about stoners and i thought that was beneath the debate. Their relationship hasnt been pretty and newsom all but admits hes been side lined. So this is it . This is it. Still newsom relishes retail politics. Choosing a self imposed exiem ae at home. Office days most often find him in a dimly lit sparse tech incubator. This is your desk . This is it. Lieutenant o governor of californias desk about where you work . Yes. Are. This is tard to see how newsom will reignite his glow. He may aim for washington. If either of californias senators retire and some imagine he has president ial ambitions. Are you still Lieutenant Governor . They havent kicked me out yet. But newsom clearly has plans to reemerge from isolation. Hes written about the intersection of politics and technology. The best single book on moving out of bureaucracy even winning over unlikely fans on the far right. All of a sudden, newt ging risgingrich is your best friend. Big supporter of the book and the message. And hes been popping up on cable tv. But hes well aware that hell face new scrutiny as he launches newsom 2. 0. I want to read you a quote. Oh no, hopefully it is not from me. Gavin newsom is that quintessential california type, immensely gifted but flawed. Potential goodness and potential train wreck in the same metrosexual path. Ive got to unpack that. Half of it i really enjoy the other half im concerned about. What does it tell you about what you project on a National Stage . I dont know. I dont get too schooled about what i project. Life is way to short, and so if anyone looks for anything for me, if they want a safe pick there will be five or six other choices. Introspection cant be an easy task for a man that says impatience is his greatest flaw and his inner hurry once again to push his way back into californias political sunshine. Joie chen, al jazeera, San Francisco. Look ahead on america tonight, bone dry and tapped out. You can see the dust blowing, where you can see the dunes. The dire drought situation in nevada. Theres a plan to take the water from rural areas and move it to cities, desperate for water in the desert of desert cities. And americas great plains and meeting the great beasts, in the black hills and the bad lands, next. Next. Each year roughly around the had time more than 10,000 people from around the country flock to south dakota to get a glimpse of americas past. To get a peek at an animal that has come to symbolize life on the american plains. Were talking about the north american bison. An enormous creature that has fought its way from the brink of extinction. At one point it was a source of food. But now chris bury travels to the black hills of south dakota to find out how the bison have found their way home. Reporter in the black hills of south dakota these cowboys and girls are preparing for work like they did more than a century ago. Lord we ask that no harm come to man or beast. But the dawn light reveals a thoroughly mod ern modern care. Here as custer park, the crowds are braving a bone chilling wind, to see a spectacle only seen in the movies. This is probably as close to the old west as youre ever going to get. For 43 years, bob landis has arranged for a buffalo herd, even though its specious was hunted to nearly extinction. A wild herd of bison weighing as much as 2,000 pounds, their lineage stretches back 10,000 years before history was ever written. As long as i can keep riding a horse im going to be here. More than 14,000 visitors from all over the world come to watch. The kider family from florida arrived with their children. They are on a year long trip, part of home schooling. Just to experience the Natural History to see the things that weve read about. Reporter for three kider children the buffalo become more than a dusty speck of american history. I would like to see them roam, that would be Pretty Amazing but just being able to see them at all is pretty cool. And for mary ann edinger proud of her lakota heritage. It almost made me cry watching them run past, something pulls at my heart. Soon over a ridge top the first buffalo break the horizon, barely visible at first butter then the whips crack and the cowboys holler the way they always have. Get up there hey, get up there come on bulls, come on bulls. And the vast empty planes come to life. The ground itself shaking from the thundering hooves. A sound so ominous it terrifies a herd of wild elk and sends them scattering for safety. If the scene seems somehow familiar, no wonder. It was right here, in this valley, with the ancestors of these very buffalo, where a star studded cast filmed the classic, how the west wan won. And for these modern cowboys even with modern help, trying to herd the buffalo on their turf and not getting their way watch her jeff, watch her. Was a heart pounding thrill. Buffalo are fierce and fast, able to outrun a man in short bursts. When you are out there in the thundering herd what is it like . Very exciting, racing along, wind flying, buffalo, everything like that it was a lot of fun. And after participating in more than 40 roundups bob landis knows why the crowds have grown from just a few hundred to thousands of spectators. They see running horses running just as hard as they can run, crack whips, yelling, you get into it, they are rooting basically for the buffalo. And it is no wonder that crowds today root for the buffalo, considering its tortured past in the country. The buffalo here are direct descendants of five wild calves saved by a rancher in 1883. By then, the buffalo were this close to extinction. In one of the most shameful portions of u. S. History, a combination of government policy and greed nearly wiped this out. Inside founder susan reiki shows us a photograph of buffalo skulls piled several stories high. Susan what are we seeing here . It is a stunning picture that illustrates perfectly the massacre. A massacre of millions over a span of just a few decades in the 19th century. Slaughtered by trappers and tourists and hunters often with the support of the u. S. Government. As the railroad forged its way west, and settlers began to flood the plains. The bison were in essence in the way. And so they were shot. And exterminated to make way for western settlement. The railroads promoted buffalo shooting excursions where bison were slaughtered not for their meat or hides but merely for sport. It was made out to see just so its a glorious event and sporting and exciting to be out in the American West and shooting these large animals and there was nothing sporting about it. Then the army hired hunters to kill millions more, knowing the indians considered the enemy back then dependent to the buffalo for food and clothing. General sheridan, send you powder and shot if you will, let them kill and sell until the buffaloes are exterminated. The buffalo hunters did more than an entire army could have done by getting the indians to go onto the reservations, that was by killing their food source. More than 60 million buffalo once roamed the west, and only a few hund survived. Fell silent and empty. A death wind blew across the prairie, wrote the lakota suetax warrior. The skinning yards, just to know they were slaughtered just for their tongues or their hides. It makes me angry. It was a shame, something we should be ashamed of. Even though we are not this generation, we should be ashamed that human beings did this to the buffalo. But slowly but surely thanks ocareful managements the buffalo are coming back. At Custer State Park the herd has grown so it must be culled every year. The buffalo inspected and innoculated against infectious diseases. Then branded. So the animals can be tracked over time. Craig pugsley helps coordinate the annual roundup in the 40th year. We would do the roundup whether anybody showed up or not. We need to bring in the the herd and get an accurate number of the animals we have. We vaccinate the heifer calves for brucellosis. How long will you keep riding here . Until the day i die. My goal is to be riding and hit the ground dead as i right my horse. Chasing the buffalo . Chasing the buffalo. Now the herd number nearly 400,000. It has taken a generation but the specious is no longer in danger. A vivid reminder of what this country came so lows close to losing and a stunning example of how these efforts to save an enduring symbol of the west has prevailed, despite a scandalous past. Beautiful, beautiful. America tonights chris bury. Washington, d. C. Is marking its 125th anniversary celebrating the bison. In fact, the zoo will reveal its new bison habitat.
