Leland, Authorities Say a deadly crash involving a bus carrying a Softball College team is being investigated as a homicide with both drivers set to undergo toxicology tests. The collision left four women dead and injured more than 15 others. It happened last night about 70 miles south of oklahoma city, reportedly as the team was driving back from a scrimmage. The four women were all students at North Central texas college. Police in pennsylvania believe they are getting warmer in this search for a suspected cop killer and they say that that suspect may have slipped up. He apparently made a quick phone call to his family. Investigators say they traced the signal from those phone calls to their current search area in the pocono mountains in northeastern pennsylvania. They also believe that eric frein spent years planning the attack. He apparently even researched how to avoid a police manhunt. One of americas longtime Allies Joining in the fight against isis as the british send warplanes into iraq. They took off from cypress and will take off once targets are identified. Molly has the latest from washington. Molly . The jets are ready to attack islamic state, isis whenever appropriate targets are identified. The measure was approved yesterday and taking on isis. And today those tornado jets took off from cypress for their First Combat Mission over iraq. The white house said it welcomed the british to this operation. The United States and the United Kingdom have a special relationship and were pleased to see the strong support from members of parliament for members of the British Military working alongside u. S. Servicemen and women in pursuit of this goal that benefits countries all around the globe. While britain, denmark, belgium and other nations agree to fight against isis, they are not taking part of the battle in syria. That continues to be the mission of the u. S. And allies. There were air strikes against isl islamic states kobani and turkey. A according to a lawmaker back home, air strikes wont be able to finish the job. Weve done a couple hundred air strikes but in the last war in eye being iraq, it was 40,00. Absolutely, sooner or later, somebody has to go on the ground and mop it up. President obama says he will not send traditional u. S. Combat troops into iraq or syria, although he has sent hundreds of Service Members to train and advise. Iraqi kurdish and syrian fighters. Arthel . Molly, thank you very much. And now the air strikes molly was talking about are just a small piece of the fight against islamic terrorism. President obama has asked congress and got millions of dollars to arm and train the syrian rebels. So how exactly is that going to work and what role will our partners have . Lets ask rick former ambassador to the united nations. Start with this, the fact that you have belgium and the british that have signed up for the air strikes. Does that help build this coalition or is it just sort of more of a question about the Obama Administration policies . Well, look, i think it helps inside iraq to a limited extent. What we really need inside iraq is specific intelligence, intelligence thats immediate. If you remember, leland, we had this problem when we tried to rescue the hostages. American military forces went in and they found the specific place where we thought the hostages were, only to discover that they had already left. And what that specifically tells us is that our intelligence is bad. Were not having accurate and immediate intelligence. Imagine that now with isis. They are smart enough. They are on twitter. They know exactly where to go. They are moving their military equipment very quickly. So when we think that its in one spot and we vomit, it actually was already moved and it was moved maybe a couple of days previously. So what we really need when people are talking about boots on the ground, what we need are specific americans looking for the targets who then can call up and say, here is where those Hard Military equipment, you know, the tanks and the leaders and other forces, here is where they are exactly. Go get them now and we dont have that. So thats part of your first question. I would also answer that were having the same problem inside syria. We need mortar gets and help to get to those targets and theres much to do and we see an Obama Administration playing politics with this by not sending in enough people to where to figure out where the specific targets are. The Obama Administration says essentially the United States and its Coalition Partners are going to be the air force and rely on the iraqi army inside of iraq. They have given up a number of times. The kurdish, peshmerga, is the other part that they are going to rely on and then in syria they rely on the Free Syrian Army. Interesting back and forth between jen griffen and the secretary of defense about the Free Syrian Army and our potential partners. I want you to listen to that. What is the moderate rebels that you are planning to train . Well, first of all, were in the process of setting up the vetting system for those that we will begin training moderate opposition syrian fighters. Who is the head of it . We dont have a head of it. Thats secretary hagel saying we dont have a head to talk to. How do you count on an organization that you dont even know who the head of it . You cant. Thats been a problem all along. Look, we have an Obama Administration that has put politics before national security. None of these decisions are making sense. We dont have boots on the ground specifically because president obama told the liberal base he was going to end a are wa. The simple fact is that we need boots on the ground to get rid of the threat. If you remember, in the address that president obama made to the u. N. , he said, he specifically told us this week that isis and the other terrorists only understand force. Thats what he said. Well, if thats true, if they only understand force, we better give them force. Hard to do. Hard to give them anything when you dont know who to call who are your partners in it. R rick, thanks for joining us. Rick and leland, thank you. A disappearance of a College Student suspect is back in virginia today. He was captured in texas.

A very big congratulations. A group of u. S. Governors are getting out of town for a bit. They hopped a military plane for the other side of the world. If we showed you a picture while they were there, you would know. Also, putting a patriotic spin on history. They are protesting their school board and their idea for history class. E.

Governors are making a surprise trip to afghanistan. Andrew cuomo and the three others are traveling on a defense trip. They are going to mingle with troops stationed there. Well, students near denver walking out of classes as critics accuse the district of trying to, quote, whitewash American History. Some School Board Members want to downplay civil unrest. They say the students are being used by pawns over pay. Im not talking about censoring anything. We shouldnt encourage our kids to obey the law. Our kids are being encouraged to walk out of the schools. Our Political Panel is here to talk about this. Tammy and steve, Senior Adviser at the global strategy group. Tammy, first of all, does that teacher in the sound bite have a point . The students are being used as pawns and being forced to protest . I mean well, theyve got a school board here now that was a divisionary election where you have conservatives who got elected. Some believe that the acrimony involving that election hasnt gone away but they were elected for a reason. The truth of the matter is, what they are advocating in their new rules is the inclusion of more information and thats, i think, whats important. The other rule was not to condone or encourage in the programming, their curriculum, the encouragement of social strife or i can braing tbreakin. It you had should be conveying information and facts and thats what the arguments have been. Help me out, steve, thats not making sense to me. Tammy is saying the students or Teachers Want to make sure that the students are not encouraged to break the law while you have some people saying, listen, the problem here is that the material should they are saying that the history material should promote positive aspects and social strife or regard for history. It happens. Thats exactly right. The school board is saying they dont want any teaching that teaches about civil disorder or social strife or disregard of the law. Well, thats the Boston Tea Party, the american revolution, the lunch counter sitins. Its going to be pretty hard to teach u. S. History without teaching about civil disorder. Look, this is the father of political conservativism said, if those who dont know history are destined to repeat it. All these kids are trying to do is actually learn their history, the good, the bad, and the ugly and the school board has decided to censor it. Thats not true. They are not advocating for the removal of something. They want a balance. We have to think about what the curriculum is at that point. They are saying theres a onesided aspect of what is being taught and want other elements to come in as well. Help me understand your argument. Im not following you. Well, let me finish and ill get to that point. Im an activist. Im a social community organizer. I know about civil disobedience and theres a big dins between breaking the law and civil disobedience. Theres a big difference between disobedience and protesting the law. Big difference. I think what has happened is youve got a curriculum that people dont realize how much positive American History has been removed and this is an argument by the school board to make sure that the positive aspects are placed in so that theres context and a balance. Thats fine. Neas whthats what they are. They want to remove what they find objectionable. No, they dont. It directs this community to come back with anything that is objectionable. Thats one step from book burning. Excuse me. The next conversation is going to happen. What conversation . The teachers are saying that this is going them even more leway in what it is they can explore in the classroom. Good. The teachers in that schoolroom say that this is giving them more information, more opportunities and more leeway with what to say to their children. Thats the goal. Please, the protesters are protesting, too. The teachers and the students are protesting this move from the school board. This saying, if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck maybe they should just excuse me. Maybe they should extend the curriculum because what happened, happened. I understand and you cant erase that. Like it or not. To tammys point they are not going to erase things. I understand to your point, tammy, you want to make sure they include positive aspects of history as well. You cant cut out what happened. You need the good, bad, and ugly. They are on School Boards all over the country, as are liberals. The problem is what the school board is doing and what the school board is doing in this case is trying to censor American History. Hang on. Let steve finish. Because they dont like what it conveys politically. No. If you look tammy, im going to give you the last word. Let steve finish. Theres a natural extension which means they can not teach things like civil disobedience and breaking the law. The Boston Tea Party broke the law. Tammy is going to get the last word on this. Give me 20 seconds. As a supporter on the modern tea party, the balance of the information is the right thing. The left is afraid of materials being turned to the classroom without the positive aspect of this country and thats why there are protests now because they realize all of the information is in the classroom and they dont like that necessarily. So its obviously a good thing. Please. No, they dont. Oh, man, tammy bruce, steve, tammy, i need to get you back when im on this side. Thank you. Thank you, guys. Longest 20 seconds of my life. I was trying to be fair, you know, give tammy and time to make her point. There you go. Why a number of seemingly healthy children are suddenly coming down with paralysis and whether a rare virus could be to blame. Plus, authorities are treating the beheading in oklahoma as Workplace Violence but that distinction could fall by the wayside. I got this. [thinking] is it that time . The son picks up the check . [thinking] im still working. Hes r
