0 presentation and tell him everything's okay, that the nsa can police themselves. one of the fundamental things that our founders put in place was they wanted to separate police power from the judiciary power so they didn't want police to write warrants, and the nasa are a type -- the nsa are a type of police. >> reporter: other lawmakers may not be so critical of the programs themselves but they disapprove of the president for not aggressively going after leaker edward snowden and his failure to clear up misconceptions about privacy protection. >> not a problem. the fact is it worked. if you have 99.99% of clients and you have self reporting errors, these came from an internal report which becomes part of an overy'all ig report -- overall ig report. i'm on the intelligence committee. i'm satisfied. >> reporter: the white house emphasized the violations didn't reflect willful law breaking. they showed reports that the nsa is aggressively monitoring itself. eric, back to you. >> more on this story in the hour. thank you. well, it develops by the hour. we have a fox news alert coming out of egypt. the country's leaders are now engaging in crisis talks. the military is preparing for even more demonstrations. new ones called for by the muslim brother hood. leland vittert with an update in our mid east bureau. leland? >> reporter: jamie, this would mark day three of the muslim brotherhood week long rage protest which is kind of turned into an arm insurrection for lack of a better term. the army said they will deal with violence very strongly, attention and soldiers deployed around the government buildings in kiry including a cairo at tht where we heard the brotherhood would gather. at times they gathered they brought with them gunmen who tried to storm in. that's obviously why you see such a big police presence. there's history to this. this is video yesterday from a mosque in cairo as the brotherhood had taken up arms, and they were shooting out of the mosque at the police and the crowd below. the brotherhood had gone in to seek refuge when they tried to storm a police station. that didn't work out so well. the police stormed in, tear gas, riot shields, all those kinds of things, ended up rescuing members of the muslim brotherhood. when they came out of the mosque, the police were cheered by the crowds. many people in cairo are very upset at the brotherhood for what's going on. the government is looking at what kind of steps they can take going forward. they say there will be anl proct they're thinking of the outlawing the muslim brotherhood, calling it a terrorist organization, trying to freeze its assets and rounded up a lot of the leadership, including this person. the name sounds familiar because his brother is the head of al-qaeda, but he in his own right is a well known jihadist in egypt. it was thought he was trying to plan something with the i think the administration on this issue is trying to do the best they can in a very difficult situation. we've been very critical of them in the past in distancing themselves from morsi. every indication is they're involved with these generals and trying to shape this situation. the fact of the matter is they're not listening very much because they are totally focused on stamping out the muslim brotherhood's leadership and its influence. >> does that send the wrong message to others i in the midde east when it comes to this type of action? >> well, we have a weakened hand that we're playing in the middle east because we have been disengaging from the middle east, and that ha is obvious tol the leaders in the middle east. they have said so privately, and they've said so publicly. the generals are very much aware of this themselves. let's be frank about it. so i don't think we're -- we have the influence that we used to have, and certainly our actions with morsi has contributed to that in terms of how the generals are reacting to matter is a generation of pakistani military leaders were denied access to our military school systems, and the younger generation of pakistani officers who this represents are very proislammist and are not from the more moderate traditional cut of pakistani officers that we've had in the past, so i think the impact on el-sisi is there. he's known as a thoughtful, sometimes cunning individual. the fact that he wrote democracy in the middle east when he's going to the war college in 2006, when war was raging in iraq, and we were at our most frutszing point, actually playing a losing hand in 2006 also shows how brazen he is to put forth his views. >> all right. we'll see if indeed there can be democracy in the middle east, specifically in egypt at some point when this is finished. general jack keane, thanks so much for joining us with your insight this morning. >> good talking to you, eric. >> absolutely. >> jamie? >> thank you, general, so much. there's a team of un chemical weapons experts that arrived in syria. their mission is to investigate the possible use of chemical weapons in that country's civil war. the regime and the rebels have accused each other of using chemical weapons, but the un team will try to determine if they were actually used and not who used them. now, some of the big celebrates from hollywood live in sun valley, and now firefighters are pouring in there. they're trying to go into central 50eud hoe t idaho to baa wildfire threatening thousands of homes in the lovely state. dry timber and winds fueling the blaze that has no signs of lessening at the moment. hi, domonic. >> hey, eric. marginal gains in containing the beaver creek fire overnight. heavy smoke grounded firefighting aircraft early saturday cleared by the afternoon allowing helicopters and the dc-10 tankers to make drops in the late afternoon. well, containment inched forward to just 9%, but still at about 100,000 acres, it's bigger than the city of denver. nowhere near being under control, though, and the authorities say the fire was active on all fronts throughout the night with extreme surface runs on what they call spotting where basically the fire randomly breaks out due to hot embers carried on the winds. this morning flames are creeping closer to homes and subdivisions in the mountains west and also near sun valley where those expensive properties and celebrity homes are. so far authorities still have mandatory evacuations of 1600 residences and more homeowners are actually expected to be asked to leave today. only one home and one structure has been claimed by the fire, that is good news, but winds as high as 30 miles per hour are inverting the direction of the fire. that is making it hard to predict where it will go next. evacuees say they're very much in fate's hands now. >> now it's just kind of wait and see what happens. can't control it. >> our pets are safe. we are safe, valuables and irreplaceables are safe. everything else is replaceable. >> eric, you were mentioning that the sun valley area is home or second home to some celebrates, names like tom hanks and bruce willis. insurance companies are keeping up their own efforts. they started yesterday to protect some of the big ticket properties there, sending in their own fire mitigation teams. that's because there's not enough firefighters in the area yet, but there are plenty firefighters expected to be pouring in today. they sent some yesterday, but a few more hundred are expected today. eric, back to you. >> the snow making equipment they use in the winter, they're use it go to pour water on the flames in sun valley. thank you very much. monday morning when the stock markets reopen, what can we expect after one of the worst weeks of the year? the dow falling by more than 2%. what's behind the tumble? should investors be concerned about what's ahead? joining uggjoining us now, fox r business correspondent brenda butner, anchor of bulls and bears. brenda, you're accommodating by background us on this topic. i thought a lot of people would be worried. i am. are you? >> reporter: yeah. well, absolutely. the dow is down some 4% from when it hit its record close on august 2nd. it's been very -- the market has been very volatile this month, so it looks like investors are taking some money off the table, and perhaps for good reason. last week we had a lot of bad news. the main bad news was that retailers from low end stores like wal-mart to high end stores like macy a macy's and in order, they're saying things do not look good. consumers are not spending. it's likely they'll continue to not spend for the next year or so. that's their outlook, so that's very frightening because consumers are the engine of the economy. we've been counting on them to spend, and that's a problem. the other issue is that interest rates are going up, so the other thing that's been looking good in the economy is the housing market. it is getting a little shaky. if interest rates continue to go up because the fed continues to hint that it's going to pull back on its easy michell money , then buyers may move out of the market. again, the housing market is one of those things that's looking good in the economy. that could, you know, pull the rug out from under us. >> any time line for turning around if possible? >> reporter: one thing to keep in mind is the market has become very far, very fast. the dow is up 15% this year. the s&p which you probably have your 401k in, many of us do, is up 16%. a little pullback is okay. it makes sense. sometimes, you know, the bulls can't run forever. they might have to take a breather. >> we prefer when they run. brenda, thank you very much. >> reporter: thank you. jamie, there is continuing turmoil in egypt. it's growing more dire by the day with no signs of ending. could this, though, spill over to neighboring countries, and what does it mean for israel? coming up, former israeli ambassador to the united nations, dan gillam, will join us and tell us about what's happening in neighbor neighbori. , we replaced people with a machine. what? customers didn't like it. so why do banks do it? hello? hello?! if your bank doesn't let you talk to a real person 24/7, you need an ally. hello? ally bank. your money needs an ally.
