Giving up an nfl career, a young player calls it quits worried about concussions. He says his health is more important than playing pro football. Good evening. Im antonio mora. This is aljazeera america. Votes are still being tallied in israels election but the momentum seems to be shifting towards Benjamin Netanyahu and his party. Early exit polls had netanyahu and Zionist Union leader hertzog locked in a dead heat, but netanyahu has moved ahead with a sizeable lead. This is a dramatic shift from just a couple of hours ago and more dramatic change from opinion polls that had hertzog we will ahead. It certainly is. Polls have been close for seven hours and we are hearing now you that Prime Minister netanyahu has a six vote lead over the zionist party. That probably by any analytic term i think would give him a very good chance to form the next government. It is a dramatic turnaround. Election polls said that netanyahus party was trailing and had a good chance of losing this election. There were at least four seats behind. Over the weekend netanyahu came out to israeli voters and said it is a great danger for the future of israel if the leftwing is going to be legend. Some would say that he really went over the top in terms of even saying that the leftwing were busing voters, arab voters to the poll and it was a danger in terms of the security of israeli. When the first votes came out at 10 00, he was tied with isaac hertzog. He put out a tweet which said it was a great victory and couple of hours later made this speech, to everyone appeared to be a victory speech. Heres what he had to say we achieved a Great Success for our people. Im proud im proud of the people of israel who at the crucial moment knew to separate between good and bad and to stand for the principle. Antonio, keep in mind, that speech was made hours ago when they were saying both parties were tied at 27 seats each. In the meantime in the last few hours, netanyahu has increased that lead and is now said to be leading by six votes so hell certainly say he has a very strong victory today and can form the next government. Having that six seat differential makes a big difference. One of his other last minute moves on monday was to say that he now opposed a two state solution with the palestinians. What does that mean for the Palestinian Peace process moving forward, if that may ever had something to do with him winning big today . I think certainly that would have made more appeal to the right wing. He will count on the right wing to put together a coalition. Remember, 27 seats or over 30 seats doesnt cut it. They need 61 seats in order to have a majority. Total seats of 120. All of those statements really played to the right wing and i think got the right wing to come out and support the party. I talked to some that wanted netanyahu tossed out of government. They will be really disappointed in his reelection. Thank you for giving us this breaking news out of israel. The Obama Administration is keeping a close eye on the election returns in israel. President obama has a famously strained relationship with Benjamin Netanyahu. If netanyahu is able to build that coalition the divide could grow even further. In the runup to this election and all day tuesday, the white house was loathe to weigh in on what was happening at israel, even after Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu on the eve of those elections reversed long standing israel policy, flies in the face of u. S. Policy and said he no longer favored a two state solution. He also in a last minute tweet said Arab Israelis were a threat, u. S. Money was backing these voters, arab israeli voters who were flocking to the polls. One of the interesting things about what happened over the course of the last several hours and days in israel is that Benjamin Netanyahu essentially had two constituencies, the conservative parties within israel and obviously a constituency here in the United States. With one he evidently did very well. With the other the jurys out but looks as though he did damage to what was already a frayed relationship in backing away from the two state solution in coming to address a joint meeting of congress against president obamas wishes. While relations between these two countries go deep, they go deeper than the leaders of the respective government, they are definitely on the rocks. The Peace Process if netanyahu were to stay in power remain Prime Minister it looks as there is no prospect for success over the next two years of president obamas term. Antonio. Mike vick in washington, thank you. One thing that netanyahus reelection bid was his opposition to the Iranian Nuclear negotiations. The deadline for a Framework Agreement is now two weeks away. Secretary of state john kerry is in switzerland leading the current round of talks. Today iranian officials reported significant progress toward a deal. The white house was less enthusiastic. What we are determined to do is to ensure that we find an agreement that shuts down every path that iran has to a Nuclear Weapon and codifies with a lot of clarity exactly how in trucei the set of inspections will be to verify irans compliance with the agreement and if iran is not able to come to terms with those expectations, with those commitments, then there wont be an agreement. The talks resume tomorrow in switzerland with the current focus on Technical Details including the size of any iranian stockpiles. Aaron shock was considered a rising star in congress, but tonight the Illinois Republican is preparing to give up his job. His downfall maybe linked to a Popular Television show. He is alleged too ever misused taxpayer money. That is right. This congressman shock was one of the youngest members of the house. He won reelection to his district in illinois just last year with more than 70 of the vote. After bragging about his office, which was modeled after a Pbs Television series, people started asking questions about his spending habits, including the hiring of a private jet. Today, congressmans shocks career came to an abrupt end. A shock resignation in name only, its been on the cards for weeks. The congressman who appeared bare chested on the cover of Mens Health Magazine in 2011 made different headlines when he declared his Capitol Hill Office to look like downton abbey. The problem was the 40,000 he spent in taxpayer money to do it. The most important thing is what you do with your constituents. He paid it back, but the decor was only part of it. There were questions about his travel expenses, like the 10,000 he spent for his staff to accompany him to a word leaders event in new york in september. If thats not official, i dont know what is. Our own president addressed the crowd, as well. Youre spending on travel looks to be improper. Look. What the congressman said was he had the biggest district by geographical area to serve. I acknowledged on friday when you rent a plane, you go around your district, people can say that seems out of touch. I get it ok . He fiddled with his mileage expenses. Now hes saying that the constant questions offer the last six weeks have proven a great distraction that has made it too difficult for me to serve the people of the 18th 18th district. Illinois governor weighed in late tuesday. Its a sad day for illinois. Its a very unfortunate situation. I hope and believe that the congressman is doing the right thing right now for the best interest of the people of the 18th district and state of illinois. Shock will officially resign march 31. Then there will be a special election to if i am the seat and one name already floated to take over is darrin lahood. He is already an Illinois State senator and a major name in the area and his father, ray lahood is the current secretary of transportation. Thank you, john.

I spoke recently with founder matthew van dyke who fought in the libyan revolution and was a prisoner of war. I asked him why he is now part of this fight. After fighting in libya i went on to work in various projects with the syrian revolution, but after my friends were killed by isis, i refocused my attention on to isis. This is all nonprofit, the people working with you to train people there are American Military vets. Theyre doing this as volunteers. Theyre not mercenaries. Its formed as a company but run on nonprofit principles, run to be revenue neutral and well be disclosing some of our category of expenses. We rely on support from the public, people go to our website at sons of Liberty International. Com and contribute. Its really crowd funding the war on terrorism, crowd funding the pursuit of liberty giving people an opportunity to being involved in making a tangible impact on the fight against isis. How much anger is there that isil took over parts of iraq that they fought hard for and that some of their friends lost their lives . Well, theres anger but i dont take anybody thats there for revenge oring a are. I really need somebodys heart to be in the right place. We have so many and one of the questions is why do you want to work for us. Its not difficult at all to find veterans who are willing to go back. It was at first back in december when we started doing work in iraq, but now that we went public with what were doing, nearly 100 applications in the cue right now. What about the danger you face when youre there . Weve even the savagery of isil repeatedly. Its certainly a concern when my personnel are in the country. They are all armed. They have combat experience. Theyre pretty good at handling their insecurity. We take precautions, but it is a risk and everybody going into it know the risks. What has the u. S. Government taking on what youre doing . Weve been in discussions with the state department in erbil and feedback has been positive. Are you concerned about the legalities . Some kurdish groups of designated at terrorist organizations and government is going after people who have gone over to fight for isil. Are you concerned they might come after you or other veterans who might be helping kurdish groups . Were working with a syrian christian groups in iraq, and not the kurds but well work with different groups. We have a very strict vetting process about which groups we work with. Theres a lot of factors and considerations that go into those considerations. I dont think we will r. Be considered working with terrorists or go astray of the law. Its highly unlikely the United States would designate a christian militia in iraq as a terrorist organization. Do you think youve been successful in helping these people out . Yes weve been very successful. The First Battalion graduated january 19th. We started working when they were really just a concept discussing with them coming over and training. We helped them with advising, consulting, in addition to training to help them basically raise an army. If we continue working with them in the future, well have advisors on the front lines with them during engagements with the enemy. If we work with other groups, well be helping other groups doing the exact same thing we did.
