Busy hour ahead. Another bad day, another bad week for the nfl. Twls a manhunt under way for a cop killer in pennsylvania. We have all of that to get to. And of course, the vote in scott land is our big story. Exactly. Lets start with that. We are just an hour away from what could be one of the most important votes in modern european history. Scotland will decide whether to remain a part of the United Kingdom or become an independent country. This is the poll of polls. Its by the independent Research Center scot send. 48 say yes, 52 say no. That means the undecided voters hold the key. Close to 4. 3 million scots are registered to vote. Anyone 16 and older is eligible now. Thats new. And as many as 600,000 scotts say they still have not made up their mind. I am still undecided. But at the moment, its just the uncertainty of what holds you know, what scotland got in store for everyone. Its what its worrying, but its such a huge decision to make. And we all need to take our vote very, very seriously. So i really dont know what im going to do. Gordon brown himself a scott emerged as leader of the no campaign. And others call the referendum an opportunity of a lifetime. This is not their flag, their country, their culture, their streets. This is everyones flag, everyones country, everyones culture, and everyones streets. We who vote no love scotland and love our country. If the vote goes against us, i pledge to accept that result with dignity and with respect for the people. But if the vote is yes, i have no doubt whatsoever that there will cease to be a no campaign and a yes campaign. There shall be a Team Scotland to take this nation forward. Polls will oech at 2k7 a. M. Thats less than an hour from now. There are restrictions for the media once that begins. No opinion polls, discussions or analysis of the referendum is allowed during voting hours. Suck it up for the next 54 minutes. And polls will close at 10 00 p. M. Local time. Then the 32 counsels will send the paper ballots to eddenedenbh will they will be counted and read allowed. Then the final results will be announced. Much has focused on the Economic Impact of that decision. But a yes vote would haver is. Serious implications for the military future for the United Kingdom and its royal on the world stage. Scotland has been a base for the Nuclear Defense for decades. A frontline against the ussr during the cold war. At the heart of this defense is a 55 billion a year budget, and the try tan submarine fleet. These are four submarines carrying trident warheads. Theyre based in the west of scotland. But now prospects of an independent scotland are raising kwon serns about the uks defense capabilities. Thats because the leader of the Scottish National party says he wants the Nuclear Submarine fleet packed up and gone from scottish waters if they gain independence. In the event of a no vote, the uk government would be in dilemma to the nuclear force. A new generation of submarines would probably require some new infrastructure work in scotland to be able to support them prop properly. And i think if it was a private business, then it would be seeking to minimize its risk and look at opportunities to relocate that base in england. Its a concern of seeing military figures, too. In an open letter, 14 armored chiefs say breaking up britain would, quote, weaken us all. A yes vote, say British Defense chiefs would also cost billions of dollars and threaten more than 12,000 jobs. That are 5,000 military and 4,000 civilian workers in scotland. Moving them would take years and cost billions of dollars in training. Our assessment based on experience in scotland already is that it might take around 12 or 13 years to build a new base in the southwest of england. New bases, and it would cost something in the order of 3 billion or 4 billion pounds at todays prices. Whether its the cost or the jobs, one thing is clear. The uk will face an uncertain and testing times if it does have to move trident. And scotland 4r6 to reapply to nato and train and recruit military personnel. And that, many argue, could take decades and leave both vulnerable to attacks. Eva suarez, cnn, london. Most people in the United Kingdom agree, no matter what the outcome of todays referendum on scottish independence, the u can will never be the same again. Absolutely. British political leards have promised scotland more power in deciding such things like taxes as well as spending issues. I think its patriotic to vote no because its in the best interest of scotland. And i think the one thing that some slightly resented is the idea that the smp capture the whole of scotland. Its a national thing and youre unpatriotic if you dont support them. I reject that completely. How has the no campaign been in your view . Should it have been any different . Should it have done things differently . We tended to attack the yes campaign on money matter, which is fine. But we know that divorce is an expensive business. And i argued from the beginning, if its the right thing to do, then what does the cost matter . The fact is i think its the wrong thing to do. That message did not come across clearly until right at the end. In the last few days, weve had this vow but your successor in the liberal party, by the labor leader, by the Prime Minister david cameron, a vow to give scotland much more power if they vote no. So two questions, obviously the smp says this smacks as panic and its nothing more than a bribe. What do you make of that . Its much more than that. Its true if there wasnt a long drawnout campaign, maybe we would havent had that vow. But the fact is the vow is correct and i think its very important, not just to see more powers in the Scottish Parliament, but we look at the knock on the fence for the rest of the United Kingdom. This involves wales, northern ire land, england. My own view is that theres a tremendous opportunity to modernize the house of commons, to change the house of lords, unelected house of lords into much more of a federal senate elected by the Component Parts of the uk. The ramifications of this are enormous. And im not absolutely certain that three Party Leaders have quite grasped the significance of it. I was going to ask you, already theres a backlash. People are saying how could you have made this vow . Youre basically giving away so much autonomy. Youre even saying that more money per head will be spent on scottish people than on english people. I understand the reason for the backlash, andhis is why i say that i dont think you can just transfer more power to the Scottish Parliament without looking at the implications for the rest of the uk. And im very keen to do that. I really do think theres a chance to modernize the whole british constitution, which isnt written on any piece of paper, but maybe its time it was. We know from all sorts of reporting that there are divisions within families. There are husbands and wives that are voting yes or no. In your own family apparently. How is this possible . By three children, two are no and one is yes. And theyre not just passing voters, theyre very strong on the subject. So the only way to keep calm is for the family not to discus it. Good advice there. And cnn is the place to be for the very latest on the historic referendum. The polls close at 10 00 p. M. Local time tonight. And thats when our special coverage begins. Plenty more on that when we come back. But before that, we will have the latest often the release of the isis propaganda machine. This is a video which is coming out. Well look at the sinister message behind the hollywoodlike production values. Plus, a show of force in australia against terror suspects. The chilling plot police say they are trying to stop.

House has voted to support obamas plan to support Syrian Rebels against isis. It reflects concerns that the weapons and training could one day be used against the u. S. The senate is expected to vote on the measure later today. The president s plan will work says john kerry. The combat will be done by the moderate opposition which serves as the current best counterweight in syria to extremists like isil. The opposition will get stronger and that will be critickricritcr efforts to bring about a political solution to address the crisis in syria once and for all. And once again, president obama is repeating his pledge that there will be no american boots on the ground in iraq. I want to be clear that American Forces that have been deployed to iraq do not and will not have a combat mission. 4 they will support iraqi forces on the ground as they fight for their own country against these terrorists. As your commanderinchief, i will not commit you and the rest of our armed forces to fighting another ground war in iraq. The iranian president says isis is defying islam by slaughtering innocent people. And hes denounced the beheadings of three western captives as offensive to all. But mr. Rouhani has also denounced u. S. Efforts to build a coalition to defeat isis is, quote, ridiculous. He spoke with nbc news. Listen. Translator how calm they are doing only air strikes . Are americans afraid of getting casualties on the ground in iraq . Are they afraid of their soldiers being killed in the fight they claim is against terrorism. If they want to use plane and if they want to use unmanned plane so that nobody is injured from the american, is it really possible fight terrorism without any hardship, without any sacrifi sacrifice . Well, isis has released a slickly produced video warning of the carnage it wants to inflict on the United States. The video is called flames of war and tom foreman tells us it appears to be the terrorists response to the speech by barack obama last week. Reporter the video is slick, fast and precisely the kind of packaging we come to expect from isis. About a minute long, it suggested the terrorist group would ravage u. S. Ground troops. But this one show ascii explosion and this one showing fighters on a corner are repeated as if they have limited clips. And time and again, walls of fire are visually imposed on images of americans. Thats a message to analysts who studies propaganda at George Washington university. They are trying to project a power that they arguably do not have. Without underplaying the real threat, that is likely true. The isis army pushes shocking videos of beheadings and videos like this one showing a syrian jet they claim to have shot down. But that does not mean they could handle a headon battle with coalition forces. So what is the goal . Where you know, two try to recruit and radicalize others to their cause, notably werners. Its also intended to signal fear to the audiences theyre trying to communicate to, in this case, the United States. And its also being used to fundraise and to ultimately try to insight some of our own home grown jihadist threats. And there is one other big goal in releasing a video such as this, getting people to share it on the internet. Spreading the message to audiences far beyond the reach of isis. In military terms, that process is a force multiplier, transforming what well could be a cheap movie made by one person with a laptop into something more menacing. Tom forman, cnn, washington. We are waiting to hear more from Australian Authorities on a huge antiter ror operation carried out thursday. 800 officers carried out raids in sidney and in brisbane. At least one man has been charged with conspiring to commit a terrorist act. 15 other people have been detained. Authorities gave this detail of the alleged plot. Police believe that group that we have executed this operation on today had the intention and had started to carry out planning to commit violent acts here in australia. Those violent acts, particularly related to random acts against members of the public. The Prime Minister tony abbott said there was intelligence that an australian member of isis had encouraged militants to kidnap and behead a member of the public, a random member of the public, then drape the victim in an isis flag. Australia is one of 40 countries participating in u. S. Led operation against isis. They were the first ones to sign up. A u. S. Community is on edge as police hunt for a suspected cop killer.

And also in california, those wildfires continue to rage. Lets turn to our meteorologist again whos been covering all of this. Whats happening and whats the outlook. The outlook is not good. Were not going to be talking about whether theres going to be improving conditions here in dramatic fashion. The king fire has been making headlines. But the weed fire in Northern California as well has wiped out structur structures. Lets show you whats happening to el dorado. 13,000 acre, now were up to 28,000. And the reason for that, weve had gusty winds in the overnight hours. In fact, firefighters have only gotten to 5 which is where we were yesterday. Sob vously no progress there. And 2400 structures are now at risk as a result of very dry conditions. The fires are jumping the canyons. The weather conditions have not helped. This upper low is going to bring a little moisture here. But you see the storm kind of firing there. We could have some lightning storms that will last a couple of days. That will be about it. All the action as far as the real moisture is down to the south and west. Bart of that activity in southern california, lets show you what happened as a result of that. We had some issues. Thats the unluckiest palm tree in the world getting struck by lightning. This is why we get into trouble in california with these storms that come in. They dont bring rain. They end up hurting more than theyre helping. That very storm also did a number on some planes there in the airport. Were looking at some planes, not giant commercial airplane, but nevertheless, some significant damage to some aircraft there as a result of very gusty thunderstorms that came in with 80 kilometres per hour winds. So those storms part of the moisture associated with hurricane odile, which is no longer a hurricane here. But its spawning terrific amounts of rain at this hour as we speak in arizona, new mexico, and particularly here in el paso. Really concerned about this particular area under a flash flood warning. Some reports coming in, as much as three to four inches just in the last hour. And there are people stuck on interstate 10 with some water rescues under way. So thats going to be a particularly dangerous area through the overnight hour here across the southwestern u. S. And additional hateful is going to come in. Quick update pa polo. Its going to be moving further away. I dont think the impacts are going to be as great. Still some hateful where they dont need it. Well continue with tropical in the philippines next. Another pro Football Player in the u. S. Is making headlines for Domestic Violence. Runback Jonathan Dwyer was arrested at the arizona karl practice facility on wednesday. Police say theyre investigating two allegations of abuse last july involving a 27yearold woman and an 18monthold child. The cardinals deactivated dwyer in the wake of the arrest. Meantime, greg hardy is taking leave with pay to focus on his legal matters. The leave was approved by nfl commissioner roger goodell. The judge convicted hardy of Domestic Violence against a then girlfriend last july. But hes been granted a jury trial, which is scheduled for november.
