Yeah, and Something Else thats cool. What . Osteoporosis is preventable. All osteos preventable . Right on if you dig your bones, protect them. All cbs cares today secretary of state john kerry left for europe and new peace talks on syria, saying that the challenge is nothing less than to chart a course out of hell. His words come as the u. S. Prepares to widen the war against isis in syria and iraq. Heres david martin. Reporter aircraft continue to destroy isis targets every day. But the Obama Administration is frustrated by the glacial rate of progress and about to ramp up the war in ways that could increase the risk of american combat casualties. One plan would use Apache Helicopter gunships, which are much more vulnerable to ground fire than jet aircraft, to fly missions in support of iraqi troops trying to retake the city of ramadi. Other proposals would increase the number of american advisers in iraq and place them closer to the front lines. As defense secretary carter made clear in congressional testimony, there is a new sense of urgency about defeating isis. I cant tell you how long it will take, but i think that it needs to be soon, which is why were so intent upon strengthening our effort. Reporter last week Master SergeantJoshua Wheeler became the First American killed in action when he was mortally wounded in a raid on an isis prison. And carter said there would be more special operations raids to come. That signals a fundamental change in what had been until now a war of attrition. Airstrikes kill enemy fighters and destroy their equipment without dislodging them from key cities like ramadi and mosul in iraq and al raqqa in syria, where the headquarters for isis is located. U. S. Military officers complain is moving to retake ramadi. In syria u. S. Backed fighters are doing much better, but there just arent enough of them to drive isis out of its headquarters in al raqqa. Scott . David martin, thanks. Well, the key to Northern Iraq is the city of mosul, which has been occupied by isis for more than a year. Iraqi forces have pledged to take the city of 1 Million People back, but nothing has happened. Elizabeth palmer is in Northern Iraq for us tonight. Liz . Reporter the operation to take mosul back should have gone ahead about six months ago, and yet the iraqi army is stalled more than 100 miles away. Commanders here say that the iraqi army simply cant do it alone. But even with american firepower and intelligence there is another huge problem. The iraqi army is largely shiite. Mosul is a sunni city. And that means its filled with people who actually, crazy as it least they think rule by isis is preferable to having their city taken by a shiite army backed by a corrupt government in baghdad. Bottom line, this is not going to happen anytime soon. The two major factions of islam opposed to each other there around mosul. Liz palmer, thank you very much. Every day three children are killed and 470 injured in car crashes, and its often because they were hit by the front seat. Kris van cleave has our investigation. Reporter 16monthold Taylor Warner was riding in the back seat of her familys minivan five years ago when it was rearended at 55 miles an hour. I looked and i realized that there was blood coming out of her face. I knew that Something Else was wrong. Reporter taylor was in her car seat behind her father. His seat broke and struck taylor in the face, killing her. And it was all because of some stupid car that we thought was the safest thing we could, you know, get for our family to protect them. Reporter crash tests show what can happen when a seat collapses. The driver is launched backwards and slams into the childs face. Drivers can also be injured or killed. How often does this happen . Every day. Reporter alan cantor has led an independent Crash Test Lab for nearly 30 years. We hired his lab to test seat strength using the current federal standard. Why are we looking at a banquet chair . What were trying to do is show how absolutely ridiculous the federal standard is. 50 reporter this is the only test required to pass the federal standard. A standard so weak that even a banquet chair passes. This is strong enough. According to the government, this is strong enough. Reporter all the seats we tested met or exceeded the federal requirements. But in some failures like this can still happen. Do car makers know this is an issue . Yes. Some of them have made their seats stronger. Reporter how do i as a consumer know if ive got a strong seat or a weak seat . Theres no way of knowing as a consumer. Reporter thats because seat testing is not included in current star safety ratings. Vehicles can have five stars and still have weak seats. This is a beltintegrated seat. Reporter longtime accident investigator Ken Saczalski has been trying to get the national highway Traffic Safety administration, or nhtsa, to require stronger seats since 1992, when he spoke to ed bradley on cbs 60 minutes. Its an inadequate standard. Its flawed as far as im concerned. Has that changed . No, it hasnt. Its basically the same today as it was then. Its a worthless standard. Reporter nhtsas own researchers also warned of the issue in 1992 citing examples of major or fatal injuries when seat backs collapse. Nhtsa declined to speak to 60 minutes back then saying only the agency was investigating ways to strengthen the standard. Kris van cleave from cbs news. Reporter current nhtsa administrator Mark Rosekind turned down our interview request and had nothing to say when we caught up with him. If they had changed the government Safety Standards to where, you know, the seat back wouldnt fail then we would still have a 6yearold running around. Reporter nhtsa sent a statement saying in 2004 the into seat back strength. Scott, they said the decision rested on the difficulty of providing data as opposed to anecdotal evidence for safety benefits of a change. Kris van cleave with the important investigation tonight.

And the folks around the st. Louis metro area need to be paying attention. Were talking about the possibility, if theres a surface fire, for radioactivity leaving the site.

The treasure is destined for the National Museum of africanamerican history and culture, under construction in washington. For sundays 60 minutes we followed Museum Director lonnie bunch to africa on his adventure to make history. Mozambique island in east africa was a headquarters for the slave trade for 400 years. Museum director lonnie bunch showed us where africans were auctioned and marched to the sea. They were running so many people through here they needed a ramp this big. Yes. What you probably had was almost an assembly line. Youd bring people, youd sell people, then you would move them onto the boats and off to the new world. What does a black man see that i cant see . He sees a combination of unbelievable pain, a sense of anger, a sense of loss, but also an amazing sense of optimism that the people who shuffled down this ramp, those that were able to survive, built the americas. Reporter the ship bunch was looking for was discovered in the archives of cape town, south africa. Anthropologist steve lubekeman found an old investigation into a portuguese ship that hit bad luck at the cape of good hope. 200 slaves drowned in the wreck. We have the captains account, and he signed his name here 220 years ago. Incredible. He said he decided to save the slaves and the people. The people are the crew. The slaves are just cargo. Reporter in 2010 the wreck was discovered. One of the divers is jaco boshoff. So you actually were excavating the sand . Thats correct. On the sea bottom. Thats correct. This stuff was under the sand. Under the sand. Reporter after 300 dives they found dozens of artifacts, but this may be the most revealing. Covered in marine growth, xrays show its a shackle, similar to this, used to bind slaves. So theres a long bar running through here. And the shackles often were on a long bar, the leg shackles especially. So a long iron bar with a round metal ring. Yeah. That sort of thing, yes. And in this particular case leg shackles. The shackles and other artifacts will anchor the slavery exhibit when the smithsonian opens its museum next fall. You can see more of this fascinating discovery this sunday on 60 minutes. And thats the overnight news for this thursday. For some of you the news continues. For others check back with us a little bit later for the morning news and of course cbs this morning. From the Broadcast Center in new york city, im scott pelley. Announcer this is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im michelle miller. Republican president ial hopefuls gathered last night in boulder, colorado for their third debate of the campaign season. Colorado is a purple state, just about equally divided among republicans and democrats and also unaffiliated voters. The ten top candidates were on stage and for the First Time Since entering the race donald trump was not the frontrunner. He now trails dr. Ben carson in our cbs News New York times poll. 26 to 22 . Heres some of what the candidates had to say. Lets be honest. Is this a comic book version of a president ial campaign . And its not a very nicely asked question the way you say that. Larry kudlow is an example, who i have a lot of respect for, loves my tax plan. Were reducing taxes to 15 . Were bringing corporate taxes down, bringing money back in, corporate inversions. We have 2. 5 trillion outside of the United States, which we want to bring back in. As far as the wall is concerned, were going to build a wall. Were going to create a border. Were going to let people in. But theyre going to come in legally. Theyre going to come in legally. And its something that can be done. And i get questioned about that. They built the great wall of china. Thats 13,000 miles. Here we actually need 1,000 because we have natural barriers. So we need 1,000. We can do a wall. Well have a big fat beautiful door right in the middle of the wall. Well have people coming in but theyre coming in legally. And mexicos going to pay for the wall. Because mexico i love the mexican people. I respect the mexican leaders. But the leaders are much sharper, smarter, and more cunning than our leaders. And just to finish, people say oh, how are you going to get mexico to pay . A politician other than the people on this stage, i dont want to insult a politician cannot get them to pay. I can. We lose, we have a trade imbalance hold on a second, john. Of 50 billion o o. Were at 60 seconds the wall is peanuts by comparison. Were at 60 seconds but ive got to ask you. Youve talked about your tax plan. You say that it would not increase the deficit because youd cut taxes 10 trillion and the economy would take off like hold on. The economy would take off like a rocket ship. Right. Dynamic. I talked to economic advisers who have served president s of both parties. They said that you have as much chance of cutting taxes that much without increasing the deficit as you would of flying away from that podium by flapping your arms. Then you have to get rid of larry kudlow, who sits on your panel, whos a great guy, who came out the other day and said i love trumps tax plan. John, listen, on balance the Tax Foundation says if you look at all of our plans, and his creates, even with the dynamic effect, 8 trillion well get back to this. Just a minute. Were going to continue. Ive got to say i want to talk were coming back to you in a minute. Beckys moving on. Dr. Carson, lets talk about taxes. You have a flat tax plan of 10 flat taxes and ive looked at it, and this is something that is very appealing to a lot of voters but ive had a really tough time trying to make the math work on this
