Not . There is a deportation proceeding that is commenced existence Illegal Migrants including children. We are looking at ways to create additional options for dealing with the children trying to get an answer to will most of them end up staying. We need to find more efficient, effective ways to turn this tide around. Lou johnson went on to claim that the Obama Administration has already, quote stemmed the tide. But new information released by immigration and Customs Enforcement contradicts that statement. The statement is similarly false. In 2008, the year before president obama took office, more than 8,000 Illegal Immigrants under the age of 18 were deported. Last year that number dropped to just over 1600. In a statement from White House Press secretary josh earnest today may reveal the true intent of the Obama Administration in this socalled humanitarian crisis. What were seeking is Additional Authority that can be used by the secretary of Homeland Security to deal with this situation in a humanitarian way, in a way thats in line with our law which means that those who seek to stay in this country go through the due process thats afforded them through the immigration courts. Lou and well be joined here in moments by congressman blake who toured the mcallen, texas, facility and the Rio Grande Valley that houses many of these minors. And. B mayor alan long of mari, california, will also be here. Hes the mayor of the Southern California city whose residents have decided to fight back against the federal governments placement of hundreds of illegal children in their Community Without the approval of local officials. Also tonight the leader of the terrorist group isil comes out of hiding to deliver a blistering sermon calling on all muslims to pledge allegiance to him. And Prime MinisterNouri Almaliki becomes the latest middle east leader to refuse the Obama Administrations calls to go. Well be talking with fourstar general jack keane about the American Mission now in iraq and the escalating violence between israel and hamas in the west bank and gaza. Violence thats now resulted in one dead american, another beaten and jailed. We begin be tonight with someone whos seen firsthand the huge numbers of young illegal immigrant children piled into one of the Border Patrol facilities in texas. He says these kids are being held hostage by Immigration Reform zealots who are pushing amnesty or nothing, and they need to be repatriated, he says, immediately. Joining us, congressman blake [inaudible] who certains on a number of committees including oversight and government reform and judiciary. Congressman, good to have you with us. The children that are being piled, as i just said, into this facility, your reaction, your thoughts on whats happening in mcallen at least. Its unbelievable, the flood of children. The theres a facility built for 400 adults. Its like a jail, and theyve got 2, 3,000 children crammed in the there. Its just absolutely horrible living conditions. Lou the number of illegal crossings has risen by 178 the rio grande Border Patrol sector in texas has taken the brunt of that, i think, as you know. Lets take a look at the number of increases in young Illegal Immigrants flooding into the United States now. Rio grande up 178 president , as i said, laredo, big bend up 59 , el paso, 33 higher n. Arizona, the yuma sector up 39 . In california, up 59 in san diego and el centro up 41 . This is astounding. No one in this administration, so they claim, was aware of what was going on. Congress, unaware. How could this be orchestrated, and when i say orchestrated, im not going to say necessarily that this administration orchestrated it, but the reality is someone is behind all of this, and is Congress Going to find out who . I think were going to look at it. The real issue is that the people in Central America, guatemala, honduras, think that ged states are going to get to stay. Its a his interpretation and a misreading a misinterpretation and a misreading of the president s policy. But heres the problem, once they get here, they ask asylum, claim a credible fear of violence when they go home, and theyre stuck in our immigration courts for years. Its been taking three years to deal with a couple of thousand. Now that we have 60,000, god knows how long its going to take to work them through the system if we dont get some more judges to handle this and if we dont change the law to treat Central Americans the way we do children from mexico and deport them promptly. Lou and there is no reason in the world that children should not be treated precisely the same whether they come from guatemala, honduras, el salvador can, whatever the Central American country and mexico. But congressman the law is different. Lou im sorry . The law is different. Lou i know its difficult law. What i said is theres no reason for there to be a difference in their treatment by u. S. Authorities, and secondly, the very idea that the secretary of the department of Homeland Security will not answer a straightforward question, a direct, straightforward question on what will happen with these children. You just said that you believe that theyre going to be turned around and sent home. The administration now be is basically saying that isnt going to happen, they may be here to stay, and these numbers that we have just shared with the audience, these may be small in comparison to what were about to experience. We need to change the law to allow them to be deported promptly. The administration, under current law, they get a hearing. And it could take years to get that hearing if they show up for the hearing. Lou they dont show up for the hearing, the vast majority of them dont. So all of this becomes a fiction. It becomes just one deception after another. Sometimes purposefully perpetrated on the American People, other times i think many in Congress Might even know the laws themselves. Obviously you do. And your colleagues on your committees. But when we look at, when we look at whats going on here, how can we tolerate, how can we tolerate an administration that has basically said after being criticized for wading these children in because they, in fact, are going to be allowed to stay in this country, it now appears. Well, the only way to stop the flood is to send them back. We had a flat of brazilians a flood of brazilians a few years back. Once we did expedited repatriation, that flood stopped. Theres a proven way to stop this. I think congress can pass a law repealing that law that treated the Central American kids differently than the mexican children, and we can get back on that. Were still going to be stuck with the ones that are here already, having to work them through the system. Obamas original proposal for more judges is a good one, weve just got to figure out where were going to caught to to cut to pay for it. Lou lou all right. Good to have you with us. Good to be here. Lou violence in the gaza strip, that follows the kidnapping and killing of two israeli youths, an israeliamerican and palestinian team. Palestinians bombarding israel with more than 70 rockets and mortars today prompting israeli airstrikes that allegedly killed at least eight palestinian militants. The escalation comes after an israeli official says three suspects confessed to the killing of a Palestinian Teen last week. Police say that murder was in revenn for the killing of two israelis and an americanisraeli teen last month which israel blames on hamas. Meanwhile, the state department can calls for an investigation into reports that a 1515yearold palestinianamerican High School Student was brutally beaten by Israeli Police during riots in East Jerusalem last week. And the New York Times putting out a shocking editorial on what they say is the real Internal Revenue scandal. The article reads, quote the real scandal is what republicans did to cripple the agency when virtually no one was looking. Since the broad tea partydriven spending cuts of 2010, the agencys budget has been cut by 14 after inflation is considered. Leading to sharply reduced staff, less enforcement of the tax laws and poorer taxpayer service. If i may point out to the New York Times, it was in the election of 2010 that the tea party came to somel y influencen congress. It was certainly not the year in which that legislation was passed. Needless to say, House Republicans such as oversight chairman darrell issa disagree with the New York Times. Congressman issa is indicating that upcoming testimony from irs commissioner John Koskinen could further incriminate former irs official lois lerner in the targeting of conservative groups and donors. Either lois lerners attorney is outright not telling the truth which hes played fast and loose with the truth several times or the commissioner was inaccurate in his testimony before congress. Now, the lawyers, mr. Taylor is not under oath. The commission or is. So hopefully, hell clarify it, support it, and it probably will make us understand that lois lerners attorney continues to profess her innocence when were long past the question of guilt. She broke rules, she broke the law. Lou issa referring to statements that lerner kept hard copies of her emails. Lerners attorney denies she did that. Either way koskinen should clear that up.

Lou tsas tightening security at foreign airports. Any passengers flying in the United States now must power up their cell phones and mobile devices because of concerns they could be used as bombs. The new measure comes after recent intelligence reports suggest alqaedalinked terrorists in yemen and syria are plotting to blow up commercial aircraft. The state department can today announced it has no reason to doubt the authenticity of a video showing the head of isil, albaghdadi the selfproclaimed ca leaf delivering a sermon in which he praised the victory of his 14,000 fighters spread all across iraq and syria. It is the first image of baghdadi that weve seen since he was in u. S. Custody four years ago. And as the terrorist threat worsens, the Iraqi Government is in a state of political paralysis. Iraqs Parliament Today postponed its next session until mid august. Prime minister nouri alma lackey announcing over the weekend he still intends to run for a third term. Joining us, former army vice chief of staff, general jack keane, fox news military analyst as well. General, good to have you with us. First, the iraqis cant even move ahead with their government, deferring for five weeks a decision that we thought would take place last week. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Certainly very disappointing, not surprising given iraqie. G3 politics and outing off until tomorrow putting off until tomorrow when anything gets tough. The fact of the matter is though, lou, therell be a lot of discussion outside of that formal convening of parliament and hopefully in those end suing weeks theyll be able to put something together in terms of a Coalition Government without maliki. Thats kind of the ideal. Whether they can do it or not certainly remains to be seen. Everything we have indication of so far puts that clearly in doubt. But that is the hope. Be. Lou and the United States there along with other nations including prominently russia to bolster the shia government against the isil. But what is the presence of iran and the obvious escalation of russian engagement here, what is that doing to the United States role in iraq now . Yeah. Well, its not only affecting the United States role in iraq, its also affecting us in the region. The region is known for some has known for some time that the United States has been disengaging from the middle east, and theyve been seeing that clearly in libya, in syria, etc. But the fact of the matter is the russians and the iranians, they know how to play be power politics. They played in a very consequential way in syria. Assad is not in power without russian and iranian support. They propped him up. When, in fact, the op is decision force had opposition had clear momentum moving towards his demise. They changed that. Now theyre playing power politics, lou, in iraq. Both of them. And the fact of the matter is, this gives maliki a hand to play, quite frustratingly, by saying to his constituents out there, political constituents and his political opponents, look, ive got International Support here. Ive got the russians, and and ive got the iranians who are helping us. And without them were not going to be able to succeed. I stay in power because of that. And thats whats disappointing here. Where is the United States in terms of consequential support . We are not providing that. Lou well, the consequences of the president s decision to send what are now estimated to be 800 advisers into iraq as russia is providing jet fighters, crews, pilots and further support and increasing it almost daily as are the iranians in terms of the number of troops coming in, we look timid, we look weak and drudging in our assistance. Why with there at all if that is the case. Yeah. I couldnt agree with you more. What i believe this administration is actually doing, lou, is theyre using the political turmoil, the difficulty of establishing a Coalition Government in iraq, as an excuse for no action. And not seeing clearly what will happen eventually. And that is that isis, now is, is the new face of alqaeda. You held albaghdadi up there, im telling you, hes actually going to be the face of the entire radical islamic movement. Hundreds and then thousands of fighters are going to come to assist him in syria and in iraq. This thing is a hen nays, and it is going menace, and it is going to grow. The United States with its allies will have to deal with this eventually because their threat will be indisputable and undeniable. Lou well, you mtioned allies, and we are given to understanding occasionally the administration, any american administration, talking about our allies, coalitions. For the life of me, i cannot think of a single country that has stood up to say were shoulder to shoulder with the United States in its policies in the middle east. Have i missed, have i missed something . No. No, you havent. But the fact of the matter is the threat to the our allies in the region is real. To jordan, its next. They say its next, i believe them. Saudi arabia and kuwait would be after that. And by the way, lou, people who say this is a sectarian war, this is just a civil war truly are not focused on what isis is, sunnibased terrorist organization, that intends to depose shia and sunni governments to establish a large caliphate in the middle east. Those allies we have this jordan, in kuwait and in saudi arabia feel that threat. We should be working with them. I would assume our Intelligence Services are, but i think we can do far more than that. Lou general jack keane, good to talk with you. Always good talking to you, lou. Lou time now for a look at our online poll results. We asked you last week if you believed the dhs should be allowed to put illegal detainees in communities without the knowledge or consent. 97 of you said, no. By the way, the constitution may say the same thing. Be s
