changing that it will that all of its -- from beijing that it will that all of its coming from hong kong. ♪ also coming up for you this hour, french indie band "we are match." let's see how they handle the pressure one year after they were named the best up-and-coming band in france. and nicholas sarkozy says he not only wants to get back into politics, he doesn't have a choice. the former french president is running for the leadership of the conservative opposition, but has so far been coy on a new shot at the presidency. first for you this hour, since friday, france has been participating in airstrikes against the islamic state urbanization. that seems to have provoked a new message from the group. in an audio recording on the jihadist form, a senior ias -- is official called on muslims to kill citizens from any country participating in the coalition including "the spiteful and filthy french." the minister of the cabinet made a statement about that threat. let's listen. >> france is not scared, because it's not the first time it has been threatened by terrorist groups. for months now our intelligence services have been mobilized to counter the activities of terrorist groups in nigeria and iraq. since -- in syria and iraq. since january 1, our intelligence services have interrogated 100 10 suspects. 74 people have been indicted by the magistrate. but for more, -- >> for more, i'm joined by armin jordan. what did the french minister also have to say? >> it was -- the basic sentence there was france is not afraid. he went on to try to reassure the french about this threat saying that france is taking 100% per cautions. but the interior minister was also realistic in his statement, saying there was no such thing as zero risk. obviously, an allusion to the possibility of jihadist slipping through the net, and perhaps also lone wolves deciding to act on their own. to give you a bit of background on that, france estimates that nearly 1000 people in this country have been involved in the jihadist in serious. -- in the jihad in syria. that includes those who have been caught fighting and those who have come back. in august, that was estimated at 180 people. it does not mean that all of them are planning attacks, but one does also have to wonder at what point does somebody who is not on the radar is actually going to swing into action, as the interior minister said in that statement. >> give us the full details on what was exactly in this audio message released on sunday. but the message messages -- >> the message mentioned french -- france several times. the spokesperson for the islamic state urbanization is urging muslims to strike against the french and other infidels by any means. not really surprising, even the french airstrikes that began on friday, but also not surprising because france has been an enemy of the islamic state group even before friday because of its support to kurdish fighters in northern iraq, who have been in many ways the spearhead of the anti-atomic -- anti-islamic state group forces there. but thank you. meanwhile, the islamic state urbanization have pushed some 130,000 kurds from syria into turkey in the past few days alone. they are running from jihadist to have taken dozens of villages near the border. turkish soup -- security forces brought out water cannons not against the refugees, but to break up a protest against the kurds. >> syrian refugees watch fearfully as fighters of the islamic state organization raise their flag over their village. they bring food for their relatives who stayed behind to guard the cattle. turkish soldiers agree to pass it on across the border. >> the organization of the islamic state is in our village. no one can go there to see what is going on. our animals are caught between the border fence and there. many have died of hunger and thirst. >> turkish soldiers are keeping a close eye on the violence next door. jihadist fighters are attacking kurdish villages just a few kilometers away. >> no one can guarantee. >> no one can guarantee? >> yes. >> those who made it safely into turkey tell us that the lives they left behind are ruined. >> became inside our village and killed those who fight -- tried to fight back. they were destroying everything. i don't know what happened to my house after i left. >> these people who have been observing the fighting are wondering why turkish troops posted at the border are not taking shots at the jihadist on the other side. >> here in france, it was a triple whammy over the weekend for former president sarkozy. after months of speculation, he finally confirmed his return to politics via facebook and an interview on television. he was coy about whether he would run for reelection for president three years from now. he said he had set his sights on revamping his own conservative opposition party. here is more. >> don't call it a comeback. nicholas sarkozy's camp is calling his return to politics a new beginning, something he was compelled to do. >> it's not just that i want to. i don't have a choice. i must. i must give back to my country what it has given me. >> on a nationally televised interview and in typical sarkozy swagger, he said he may have been too harsh with certain people during his presidency and if he could go back, he would do things differently. rather than look to the past, the former french president wanted to talk about the future. sarkozy is expected to win leadership of the unp in november. he wants to overhaul the right-leaning party. he could be facing off against two of this cap members and former party cohorts. mr. sarkozy sidestepped whether he would run in three years time. he did criticize current president francois hollande's economic track record. both men have start -- have presided over crises but sarkozy said 2008 was different because it was a global crisis. francois hollande has mismanaged the economy to my he said. -- economy, he said. >> it's time for him to realize i'm not the president anymore. he is. >> it has been over two years since he left office and he remains a controversial figure. his supporters were waiting on sunday, ready for his return. >> i'm joined now on the line from london from french politics professor. thank you for joining us. what are your thoughts? he said it's not really a comeback. does it change french politics echo >> this is a classic maneuver. take some time away, in the desert, so to speak, and then return as a savior. that was done by de gaulle when he was gone after 12 years. sarkozy's problem was that he's trying to come back without never really having -- without ever really having been away. it was only two years ago that he was president. and during the two years he was out of power he certainly has not been out of the headlines. for all the wrong reasons, legal investigations that are still ongoing. the french but has not exactly had a chance to start longing for sarkozy and imploring him to return. but he had to act now to prevent someone else being installed at the head of the unp --ump who could become the de facto president in 2017. >> do you think he can go all the way? on the one hand, you have this idea as bill clinton would say, "it's the economy, stupid." but on the other hand, he has a bad reputation with french voters. >> yes, it's the favorite -- he's the favorite right now with the ump, but there is a lot to be done to change the public at large. this could galvanize the unp and as a result, it will, or at least should, galvanize the socialist party. all through the summer we have been hearing about infighting in both parties. if sarkozy puts a stop to that within the ump, the socialist cannot afford the spectacle of a disunited party. it would change the dynamics. but make no mistake, the competition of the ump is also the competition for the presidency. any leader of that party, as things stand, should win. sarkozyand he must do everything to make sure that the ump candidate is him -- sarkozy knows that and he must do everything to make sure that the um he candidate is him. but thank you. air france -- >> thank you. air france is expanding its low-cost airline. that expansion is at the heart of their first strike in 15 years. they are entering their second week of the strike. the pilots say lower salaries for the pilots could bring down their own. >> on the tarmac of charles de gaulle airport, a long line of air france planes that have been grounded for over a week. inside, catching a flight is quite an ordeal. >> i am done with air france. i never want to hear about this again. >> the strength sticking point has to do with the company's low-cost airline that is meant to compete with ryan air and easyjet. management wants to create a low-cost airline and the pilots fear their jobs will be moved abroad. >> from abroad, it would plunder our jobs by attacking from outside our borders. we cannot afford that. >> the minister says it is putting their future in doubt. >> there's only one solution to compromise and find agreement. as we begin the second week of the strike, it is important to remind people that air france is a company that is financially fragile. >> canceled friday -- flights delayed planes and diverted travelers. the cost is between 10 million euros to 15 million euros per day. but it's not bad news for everyone. easyjet is temporarily adding flights to help out stranded passengers. >> in hong kong, thousands of students are boycotting their classes today to he coughed a week of protests against beijing. china angered many last month when it announced plans to vet nominees who want to stand as hong kong's next leader. a pro-democracy group has slammed their restrictions as a so-called fake democracy. >> tens of thousands of students have already joined rallies at universities and colleges this afternoon. it's not clear how many mass demonstrations there will be over the week, but this one right now is impressive. the organizers said they have planned many throughout the week and i'm sure there will be more marches and rallies here and there. the rule of law and civil order are deeply ingrained in people, so students in particular are under incredible pressure from a very young age to work hard, get a good education. the idea of boycotting is a very strong action for many. some support the movement of principle. other support this as a learning exercise in politics. and others have condemned it, because they are afraid it might spread. but the students have undergone a protest with no censorship. fighting for democracy in beijing is a big issue. >> let's take a look at the top stories. a new message from the islamic state group calls on muslims to kill citizens from countries taking part in the international coalition against it. france is particularly targeted by a senior is official. week number two of airstrikes with hope in sight. the issue that first push the pilots to walk off the job, the low-cost carrier. and sarkozy says he not only wants to get back into politics, he doesn't have a choice. the former french president said he is running for the leadership of the conservative opposition but remained coy on a new shot at the presidency. time now to take a look at what these papers have been saying around the world. we have all of her us on the set to do that. here in france obviously -- we have oliver ferry on the set to do that. here in france, we have been talking about nicholas sarkozy. but that is right. he made it -- >> that is right. he made his first primetime appearance last night. it's quite a big deal. he is saying he has matured taken stock of his presidential years, and has changed. the french media are not really convinced of that. the free papers say he is a man "as new," but not much has changed. the image is of a scratch card being revealed. and the headline, when you scratch the sarkozy on the sunday night news, you find the old one underneath. it says that it wasn't long before you found the old nicholas sarkozy, pugnacious aggressive, at times quibbling over one thing and sidestepping others. >> it will be a difficult journey to do this correctly. but that is right. one paper that has been quite a pathetic for the president list three problems. one is to improve the public image, which has taken a bit of a battering. the other is to keep out of trouble, a reference to his various illegal wars. and also to see his rise within the ump. others have already announced their determination to run against him in 2017. i would presume it would be primaries within the ump. they are not quite as taken with him as people were in the past. >> it is interesting to have this happen, a president who is reportedly going to get out of politics and and announces he's getting back in. >> it certainly doesn't happen in too many countries outside of france. the front-page editorial says, the headline is about the return. -- about the eternal return. it seems to see the origins of it in general de gaulle's return to politics in the 1960's after a decade or so out of it. he mainly came back to save france from the possibility of a military coup. but it continues to say that it gives rise to a number of worrying phenomenon, one is the public perception among french people that politicians are on the make and will do whatever they can to will onto power. -- to hold onto power. and the other is that with the emergence of a new generation of politicians, kept back by what it refers to as the data source of french politics. >> moving to scotland, the no vote has seemed to settle the matter, but there are still other solved -- other problems to be solved. >> yes, another problem that came out on friday, in the future, scottish mps in westminster will be barred. there are strong opposition to that. if they are removed, it could seriously deplete labor's power. david cameron is facing opposition from his liberal democrat coalition partners to consult with labor on this. not surprisingly, it is the scottish mp, danny alexander who has come out with that. he says these are separate matters and labor should be consulted on any change. in editorial, it says that it accuses miliband of using cash for advances. it says, it would be bonkers to rewrite the constitution overnight. he said he recalls scottish labour mps working with the students and if there is to give new powers to scotland, it would only be fair to do that for england as well and no constitutional shakeup would be needed for that. >> 50 hostages return homes after -- returned home after being kept by the islamic state. the turkish government is not blaming. >> they did talk with them and several are speculating that in return for the release, turkey has agreed to not join any military campaign against isis in syria or iraq. >> thank you. time now for sports. >> leo missed a chance for a return to the top. a much needed three points against england. -- against ganuingamp. >> we should have closed at 2-0 and we didn't. we didn't succeed, so we need to work hard and come back. >> not playing at the top level at the moment. we need to make some changes. when he to work on some details because i think the details make the difference. the next three matches and will be very important. >> in the english premier league lester -- lanchester fought back. franklin part came back to hosted former club. >> i was so sure they would play well against chelsea, because he's a very good professional. he always wants to play from the beginning. he wanted to be involved. he's a very good player and a great professional, so i'm really happy for him. 1.1, because we leave here -- >> 1.1, because we leave here without them from the stadium. i do not look to the opponent to see the closing especially. i look to the table. we are leaders of few points. we come here at a super difficult stadium and difficult opponent. and we leave better than we arrive, so good. >> a surprise second following their third win on the trot. liverpool and manchester united find themselves languishing in the bottom half. burning in newcastle are still awaiting their first wins. -- bernie -- brinley and newcastle are still awaiting their first wins. ross byrd retired early with electronic problems. hamilton went on to take his seventh win of the year. that'll took second and ricardo took third. a runaway winner of the european rally championship in cyprus overturned a final day deficit. he was left to regret his tire choice, finishing 48.9 seconds behind in second. going on to win the well -- the wales open a at celtic manor. his top-five finishes in a row on the european tour. >> it was a tough day. i had a bad start today. the run a lot of guys playing well behind me, picking up shots everywhere. i just try to stay patient after that best -- last part. we started to play a bit better. i'm still going on the back nine as leader, i think, along with some other guys. then i can win this tournament and try to stay focused and give myself some chances. >> he has won his fourth on the european tour. meanwhile, jamie donaldson finished in fourth at 12 under. poland clinched their second men's what the ball -- volleyball title. poland's first title in 40 years. france missed out on the bronze medal. they were beaten 3-0 by germany in the playoffs. a good day at the canoeing world championships at deep creek lake. harold is
