Thanks for joining us. The u. S. Military launched targeted rocket attacks against isis. Families fleeing isis are trapped. The president says it is time to act. Today, america is coming to help. Weve begun operations to help iraqi civilians stranded on the mountain. Descend the mountain and be slaughtered or stay and slowly die of thirst and hunger. Forces below have called for the systematic destruction of the entire people. And i believe the United States of america cannot turn a blind eye. Air drops of food and water to stop the advance. Ive directed our military to take targeted strikes against convoys against if these terrorist forces threaten our personnel or authorities anywhere in iraq, including our embassy in baghdad. Already in baghdad, proof nothing is at off limits. Militants ransacked and burned the tomb of osama bin laden. The top American General in iraq says, quote, was must neutralize this enemy. Good to see you, kelly. You know, theres a lot of risk involved in the president s decision. There is, betty, and that might be why president obama said he would not let the u. S. Be dragged back into a war in iraq and that any air strikes would be limited. The decision announced late yesterday after the president met with his National Security team as isis fighters continued to gain ground in the north. They took control of the countrys largest dam yesterday. And there are unconfirmed reports they seize add check point a 30minute drive from a city of 1 1 2 million. The kurds deny that. Hundreds of thousands have been driven from their homes, including 50,000 members of a religious minority. There, the people trapped on the mountain without food or water for days. Last night, three u. S. Military cargo planes escorted by fighter jets dropped supplies to them at the request of the iraqi government. And the president said air strikes could be used to help the iraqis and kurds break the siege of that mountain top or to protect americans or u. S. Facilities. But the president said there will be no boots on the ground. Betty . Thats an Important Message there, too. Thank you. Breaking news in the middle east to tell you about. The ceasefire ends and fighting returns. Rockets rain down on israel and gaza this morning. Israel left frustrated by it all. Israel wanted to see the ceasefire succeed. Live in tel aviv. Okay, jim. What does this mean for the peace talks taking place in cairo . Good morning, betty, well, it means the war is back on and the peace talks are on hold. They may well be dead. The israeli delegation left cairo and returned to jerusalem without a deal. Hamas officials have reportedly offered to extend the ceasefire if israel lifted the blockade around gaza and released a number of militant prisoners. Israel rejected that offer and dozens of rockets have been fired since then. Israel after holding its fire for a while has officially begun to retaliate with, quote, force. Meaning that air strikes and tanks and artillery fire will be used. The sense coming out of the talks, betty, was that israel seemed willing to discuss humanitarian issues like the opening of the border crisis for ga gazans but wouldnt bend at all on the security issues. So the Israeli Defense forces says it once again will strike at targets about across gaza strip and rockets are once again sounding throughout the Southern Region of israel. Back to you. Thank you, jim. Things are rapidly changing, as well. A cell just downgraded to a Tropical Storm. A cell is 50 miles a i way i from hawaii with speeds of 70 miles per hour. Meanwhile, hurricane julio is now a category 3 hurricane. Lets bring in nbcs mike taibbbi. Whats happening there . Yeah, betty, that was good news. And just a few minutes ago, we heard for the first time the words from anchor man in our local affiliate, we are lucky, in that iselle is downgraded to Tropical Storm iselle. That doesnt mean that people havent been confirmed and certainly means there will still be some disruption and destruction. Hundreds of people have moved to shelter in the big islands. Downed power lines and downed power lines on maui that have shut down a Water Treatment plant that involves a lot of people have to conserve water because the plant can no longer generate water as long as the power until the power goes on. Weve talked to a meteorologist at the university of hawaii a while ago. He says heres the deal. With iselle passing by as a Tropical Storm and a more southern track before, the concern now is about hurricane julio, which as you said was a category 3, 115 miles an hour winds sustained 130mile gusts tracking to the north of maui. If that changes, there could be problems, but if it doesnt, these hurricanes, the huge systems nevertheless behave like tornadoes with a restricted area of destruction. If they miss by 10 miles, 20 miles, 30 miles, the effects will be of a storm surge on the one hand, wind and rain, but not the impact of a fullgrade category 3 hurricane. Here on maui, not a big run on the stores, not a big area of concern expressed to us. Theyre not panicking. Thank you. And meteorologist here with the latest for hawaii. Seems like things are improving. Thats good news this morning. There have already been reports of power outage, structural damage and heavy flooding rainfall across the big island of hawaii. And thats just the beginning as iselle continues to close in on the big island. We expect to see hundreds of reports, thousands of reports of heavy flooding rainfall which would cause mud slides and the threats for gusty winds to cause widespread power outages. Things looking quiet, beautiful end to the week in the northeast, plenty of sunshine in the big apple with high temperatures in the low 80s. Kansas city, drier day, warming up to warm day in l. A. Very typical for this time of year, but any of the thunderstorms locally could produce heavy rainfall, atlanta looking for high temperatures at around 90 degrees. While things are quiet in the mainland, not so quite in hawaii. Yeah, its been downgraded, thats the good news there. Thats the good news. Now for the latest in sports.

Now to a person that does have it all in talking about the hill. Good morning, happy friday. Happy friday, betty. How are you . Im doing well. Whats the reaction in washington to president obamas decision to launch air strikes in Northern Iraq to stop sunni militants . We heard that decision last night on television. Are you hearing any fallout from it today . There is some fallout today about president obamas decision to authorize air strikes in iraq. Yesterday, last night, im sorry, senators Lindsay Graham and john mccain, two republicans who had been quite quite, theyve criticized the administration for their quote unquote inaction in the region and inaction with military overseas. To have said this is long overdue. And i think that the war hawks and the republican party, this is something that they would like to see continue. And something theyve been urging for a long time. Ive got to tell you, betty, on the flip side of that, there is some criticism in washington that this is a policy reversal from president obama and the administration. But i think that over the next couple of days, especially on the sunday shows, were going to be seeing a lot more of the fallout continue. Help us understand how dire the situation is with the religious Minority Group that the president talked about. Because he really went close to calling it a potential genocide. You know, he did. And whats happening is youve got this group that is extremely isolated in Northern Iraq that is isolated on top of a mountain. And surrounded by extremists. And so they had according to the president last night we heard him say that they had said, theres no one here to help you. And last night, president obama saying that america is here to help you. And so i do think he is trying to position this as a way and make the case that america is going to be there to support a war that was started as we all know many years ago during the bush administration. But the president said hes making it clear that he has no intention of launching a ground war in iraq. All right, kevin, thank you, enjoy your friday. Thank you, you too, thank you, betty.
