Were following two major stories this hour. Thousands gathering for an emotional final farewell to Michael Brown, the unarmed black teen shot dead by a Police Officer. Well go live to ferguson, missouri, for full coverage coming up. But first, isis insurgents score another stunning victory. This time in syria. The brutal Jihadist Group is now celebrating its seizure of a Syrian Air Base which only days ago was operating against the rebels. And now, isis has basically taken control of the Norther...

So the plane continued flying. Those f15s following it all the way to cuban airspace. They broke off as the plane entered cuban airspace. The plane flew right over cuba. U. S. Authorities in contact with cuban authorities to let them know that they believed this was a medical emergency and there was no ill intent. The plane traversed cuba, came out the south side of cuba and headed right for jamaica, again, maintaining that Straight Line at 25,000 feet. Then it lost altitude rather rapidly, desc...

Missile crisis. You would think the soviets in 1960 would be wanting to display all of their biggest missiles, right, all of their finest weaponry as a show of force against the dreaded United States. It was an incredibly intense time for u. S. soviet relations. But there was this moment back in 1960 when the president of the United States at the time, dwight eisenhower, and the leader of the soviet union at the time, nikita krush chauf, they did in 1960, did for a while seem like they were tryi...

Distributed what looked like a movie trailer. All of this as the senate at this hour debates a house bill that would fund u. S. Training and arming of socalled moderate Syrian Rebels. And as the secretaries of defense and state head back to the hill to make the administrations case for war to two separate house committees the day after the full house already voted on the bill. And while it might not seem like it, there are still some skeptics. I find it pretty disturbing that we are having this ...

Some who have offered to do so, but we are not looking for that at this moment, anyway. A former vice chief warns air strikes wont be enough while a former cia chief predicts that reality will result in special forces on the ground by years end. The only way we can think about destroys isis in this particular strategy is that the forces on the ground will have to do the destroying. I actually think were going to end up with small American Special Operations Forces, active in this broad theater, ...

And to that end, tho...

So we go in with our planes bombing, not exactly shock and awe, not a single arab country is saying theyre with us. And the United States not even daring to ask them to do the dirty work on the ground. And yes, the bombs will work, people will die. There will be pictures in the world press of Mothers Holding babies and the wounded in hospital beds and there will be an outcry against us. And the young of the islamic world will begin to choose sides with their people who are they really dont like,...

Remember last week the president said the Islamic State is not islamic . This comes at the same time isis released a third video showing the beheading of a westerner now the victim this time is a british aid worker, david haines. Now, british Prime Minister david cameron, he addressed the execution with these very strong words yesterday. Take a look. The fact that an aid worker was taken, held and brutally murdered at the hands of isil sums up what this organization stands for. They are killing ...

Not to. I believe, mr. Speaker, it is also our duty to take part. This International Operation is about protecting our people, too, and protecting the streets of britain should not be a task that we are prepared to entirely subcontract to other air forces of other countries, so it is right for us to act. In Great Britain just like the United States much of the concern revolves around this war escalating to the point of requiring ground groopz troopz. Lets listen to some of that debate which took...
