as residents lashed out at city officials over the handling of the violent protests. And officials are still hoping to make a few rescues for people trapped in a rubble after an earthquake hitting an italian island at the height of tourist season.

Great American
eclipse but animals as well. Zookeepers in knoxville noticed giraffes seemed to be the most impacted by the sudden darkness along with crickets who apparently thought it was already evening. Those are some of our top stories on this tuesday. It is august 22nd. From abc news, this is world news now. Roosters must have been very confused you can imagine cockadoodle by the way, the camels did not have protective glasses on. Not a good thing. All right. Lets start with
President Trump
, staying the course in afghanistan, going against what he called his original instincts. The president outlined the path for
American Forces
without offering many specifics on troop numb numbers. And rejected the idea of nation building. Ali, good morning. What do we know so far . President trumps address may have been short on specifics, but one thing is clear, the u. S. Commitment in afghanistan is not winding down anytime soon. President trump beginning his prime time address on afghanistan with a rare admission. His gut might have been wrong. My original instinct was to pull out. And historically, i like following my instincts. But all my life ive heard that decisions are much different when you sit behind the desk in the oval office. Reporter the president , who railed against the 16year war during the campaign made clear that the
United States
isnt ending it anytime soon. The consequences of a rapid exit are both predictable and unacceptable. Reporter a 180degree change from the tough talk before he became a candidate. Lets get with it. Get out of afghanistan reporter much of the speech at virginias ft. Myer focussed on the things the
United States
will not do in the region. We will not talk about numbers of troops or our plans for further military activities. We are not nation building again. We are killing terrorists. Micro management from washington, d. C. Does not win battles. Reporter trump described the strategy as a departure from that of his predecessor, but he used a lot of the same language that president obama employed shortly after he took office. A core pillar of our new strategy is a shift from a timebased approach to one based on conditions. We will execute this transition responsibly. Taking into account conditions on the ground. Our commitment is not unlimited. And our support is not a blank check. The days of providing a blank check are over. Reporter one concrete part of
President Trump
s strategy, putting more pressure on neighboring pakistan to stop harboring terrorists. A key part of why the white house calls this a strategy for all of south asia. Pakistan has much to gain from partnering with our effort in afghanistan. It has much to lose by continuing to harbor criminals and terrorists. Reporter now obviously, the speech was all about afghanistan, but the president did refer indirectly back to those violent protests last weekend in charlottesville, saying that soldiers returning from battle should come home to a nation that has quote, renewed the sacred bonds of love and unity. Kendis, diane . We know
House Speaker
paul ryan held a town hall this evening. What did he have to say about all of this. He talked about from trumps numerous take a listen. He messed up on tuesday. He was right on monday, and he was right just about an hour ago. He was wrong on when he was reading from the teleprompter. I think he messed up on tuesday. [ applause ] so let me say it this way. Diane and kendis, that violence occurred last weekend. And if you include his remarks last night, the president has now made four separate remarks on charlottesville. Its still unusual to hear him speak about charlottesville, when hes revealing a plan on war. Interesting take from paul ryan and others.

Thats a 35th floor window. There were no injuries. And usa gymnastics is reacting after being fiercely criticized by one of its wellknown athletes. Aly raisman is one of the most decorated gymnasts of all time and is speak out against the worst scandal ever. Heres abcs brian smith. It just keeps going up and bam. Reporter aly raisman is sharing harsh words for the u. S. Gymnastics and u. S. Olympic commit over their response to sexual abuse allegation against
Longtime Team<\/a> doctor larry nassar who she is calling a monster. In an interview, raisman says, i feel like there are a lot of articles about it, but nobody has said this is horrible. This is what were doing to change. Raisman also accuses usa gymnastics of trying to sweep it under the rug. Nassar, who pled guilty last month to child pornography still faces dozens of charges of sexual abuse and is being sued by over 125 women and girls who claim he abused them during medical examinations. Raisman is now the most highprofile figure to take aim at the sports governing bodies. Because of her resume, the olympics gold medal, i think it speaks volumes and i think these are words that are going to be heard and theyre going to reverberate throughout the u. S. Gymnastics world. Reporter earlier this year, the
Senate Judiciary<\/a>
Committee Heard<\/a> testimony from former gymnasts who say that usa gymnastics failed to protect them from falling prey to the former team doctor. Dr. Nassar abused me at the usa

She made these comments after being inducted into the gymnastics hall of fame.

And they know this is all its going to be, right . Just a moon over the sun. The things coming out now. Oh, my goodness. That didnt last long. Yoohoo i want to see more. It didnt last long. Shepherd, i feel better this morning on world news now. This morning on world news now. President trump signaling a new direction in americas longest war. Before a largely military audience, the president announced that the u. S. Will simply not pull out of afghanistan on a timetable and that america is not nation building again but killing terrorists. Well have
Team Coverage<\/a> ahead, including reaction and criticism of the president s remarks. Heritage or hate. Many communities grappling with that question and how to handle confederate monuments in the wake of charlottesville. One man under arrest after allegedly trying to blow up a statue as more come do you know in the middle of the night. And a scooter adds insult to what could have been some serious injury. When a family appears to flip over the handlebars. And then as theyre just picking up the pieces, the scooter just takes off on its own. And our one moment in time. In history, the great eclipse, hosted by the greatest country this the world. America. With millions across the country displaying patriotic pride wearing those goofy glasses and geeking out. Social media feeds may finally be recovered. Were just getting started. And then no more, we promise, until 2024. We promise. It is tuesday, august 22nd. From abc news, this is world news now. I dont even know if we can keep that promise. No, we cant quite keep the promise. I dont know. Well find out soon enough. What did you do for the eclipse . Well, it was a big day. I knew it would be 2024 before we won the bidding war for the next eclipse. Like the olympics . Exactly. So i decided to go out there in central park and i really kind of like channeled the moment. Everybody in new york city and all across the country embraced the moment. Yeah. It was a moment that you couldnt miss. I imagine the same for you. We didnt connect yesterday. What did you do for the eclipse . I had a different plan, actually. Yeah. You slept through it . I kind of did. In your mcdonalds onesies . It was very comfortable. Look, i had my glasses. I was ready to go. And then it just, you know, i saw the eclipse in my dreams. There you go. Does that count . It does. It looks the same, with your eyelids closed, its all the same. Truth be told, i woke up at 2 35, realized i couldnt see the sun from any of my apartment windows. Turned on our coverage just in time for the total eclipse and went back to bed. It was probably about 80 coverage in washington, d. C. Area which is where the first family got to see the partial eclipse for those folks there. But the president was getting a little bit of heat for that. Ooh, breaking the rules. Not once but several times, he looked up at the sun, and the sun was like, you know what . I blink. You win, mr. President , yes, indeed. Thats how he spent the earlier part of his day, and he did a little bit of traveling down the road to ft. Myer and came up with his new war plan. As part of that, the president is saying hes not pulling out from afghanistan anytime soon, but that hes not talking troop numbers yet. The president delivered this prime time speech from ft. Myer in virginia and announced a shift from timetables to a strategy based on conditions on the ground. And he warned that americas support is not a blank check. Abcs lana zak has more. Reporter
President Trump<\/a> now says hes on board with a plan to send additional troops to afghanistan. I concluded that the
Security Threat<\/a> we face in afghanistan and the broader region are immense. Reporter
Afghan Forces<\/a> say they need more help to fight a resurgent taliban. The new troops will help those join 8,000 u. S. Troops already on the ground there, part of 13,000 coalition forces. The men and women who serve our nation in combat deserve a plan for victory. Reporter the president did not say how many more americans would be sent, but the pentagons proposal originally unveiled in may would add 3,000 to 4,000 troops and increase the amount of the foreign aid being sent to the nation. Before he was president , mr. Trump opposed increasing americas commitment in afghanistan. Lets get with it, get out of avenue gap stan. Reporter getting out of afghanistan a position he often repeated as a private citizen, but one that was harder to maintain as commander in chief. My original instinct was to pull out. And historically, i like following instincts. But all my life ive heard that decisions are much different when you sit behind the desk in the oval office. Reporter and the president also called on india and pakistan to step up, but one thing that the president said he would not do, give a timetable for when all u. S. Troops in afghanistan will be home. Lana zak, abc news, washington. Our thanks to lana there. And the president offered few details on how his approach would significantly differ from his predecessors. But his speech is getting positive reactions from some republicans. The president is also facing plunging poll numbers specifically related to his handling of charlottesville, and his opening words still show that thats on his mind. Lets bring in abcs ali rogan for more insight on this. Ali, i want to start with this new war plan. Is it new actually, and whats the general reaction . It sounds some positive. Theres a saying the more things change the more they stay the same. That is a lot of the reaction from democrats and republicans today. There wasnt a whole lot the president said in tonights speech that president obama also didnt say when he decided to put his mark on the afghanistan strategy, when he came into office in 2009. Some of the reaction from republicans today, as you mentioned, theres just not that many specifics in this plan. So its hard for democrats and republicans to comment, specifically, about what they thought. But that was the very thing that a lot of
Senate Democrats<\/a> were bringing up tonight. They were criticizing the lack of specificity in this speech. Senate
Armed Services<\/a> chairman jack reed saying, quote, unfortunately, the president s speech tonight was short on the details. Our troops and
American People<\/a> deserve more. A lot of
Unanswered Questions<\/a> for democrats, and on the republican side, they were praising the fact that donald trump specifically said were not putting an arbitrary deadline on this withdrawal where he its conditions based which is also something that president obama said a lot back in 2009. But he reiterated that this is going to be a commitment that is not done when we say its done. Senate
Armed Services<\/a> chairman, john mccain saying, quote, the president is now moving us well beyond the prior administrations failed strategy of nearly postponing defeat. Go ahead. I was going to say, john mccain has not been shy about criticizing
President Trump<\/a>. So kind of interesting coming to his support. He actually had his own afghanistan plan locked and loaded and ready to go in case the president did not come up with his own. Indeed. Because there were no details, a lot of people were saying this morning this was basically him trying to distract from the mess he made with charlottesville. And we have new poll numbers involving that. Thats right, we do, kendis. That cloud not lifting from the white house yet. The violence in charlottesville that happened last weekend. The new poll numbers from abc
Washington Post<\/a> poll show that 28 of the people approved of the president s response to the charlottesville violence. 56 disapproved. Those are bad numbers however, whichever way you slice it. If you dive down below the top line numbers. 42 of people say the president s been equating neonazis and
White Supremacists<\/a> with those who oppose them, and only 35 say hes not doing that. So weve got a plurality of folks saying hes putting too much similarity between the too groups. The negative effects from that press conference continue to follow. Ali, thanks so much, we so appreciate the insight. Moving on now to texas, where a man is in federal custody for allegedly trying to blow up a confederate statue in houston. Prosecutors say andrew shneck was caught with bomb making materials saturday near a civil war monument. The 24yearold told a park ranger he, quote, did not like that guy in the statue. He was also arrested in 2014 on explosivesrelated charges. There was a confrontation on the main campus of university of texas as four confederate statues were removed. Now in the shoutfest in austin as the monuments came down in the
Early Morning<\/a> hours, you can see them there and the statues were relocated to other parts of the campus. And the navy has ordered a pause as it begins to investigate the collision of the uss john s. Mckwacain. The collision happened in the busy waters of singapore. The ship is docked at a naval base while search efforts continue for ten missing sailors. The navy will also look at the deadly uss fitzgerald crash off japan in june. I think one of the things they will look at here, it was nighttime, one third of all maritime shipping goes through here. So there were probably extenuating circumstances, but no doubt as we saw in the fitzgerald, there was probably human error involved as well. And the mccains was the fourth mishap this year. The impact of the oil tanker caused flooding in crew sleeping areas as well as rooms used for communications. Army
Sergeant Bowe<\/a> bergdahl has chosen to have his trial heard by a judge and not a military jury. Bergdahl faces charges of dissertation and misbehavior for walking off his post in afghanistan. If found guilty, bergdahl could send the rest of his life in prison. Hell be tried in october at ft. Bragg, north carolina. More than a few companies are testing out selfdriving cars, but we found a scooter with a mind of its own. So, this happened in southwest china. Three family members on that scooter. And it flips over, head over heels as a car pulls in front of them. So everyone seems to be okay. You can watch them get up. They walk away. Dad goes to pick up the scooter, and just like that, the scooter is gone. It goes off on its own straight into oncoming traffic. Dad is left in the dust. No scooter, but luckily, a family with everybody intact. Could have gone a lot worse. But that scooter, there might be something going on there. Possessed. All right, coming up theres a scooter for sale on craigslist. It might be a lemon, you can have it. While youre eating avocados all the wrong way. And how were apparently chasing eclipses all wrong as well. It happens a lot more often than we might think, but theyre not easy to find. We meet some folks who freak frequent these things in the dark. But first, a chaotic scene in the cabin. An unruly passenger kicked off after trying to open the planes door mid flight.

American Airlines<\/a> flight after a man allegedly tried to open a cabin door. Other passengers subdued him until flight attendants were able to step in. Abcs david kerley explains more. Reporter these are the moments just after passengers were screaming as a man allegedly tried to open one of the jets doors in flight. I hear some yelling. This gentleman is standing in the middle of the aisle. Im saying im going to punch him if he opens the door. I didnt know what was going on, if we were being hijacked. Reporter the
American Airlines<\/a> jet was prepared to land in minneapolis, and once on the ground, police boarding and escorting the man in sunglasses off the aircraft. Opening the door. Opening the door in flight that scared me a lot and the passengers next to me. Reporter while there was plenty of fear among passengers on saturday, those emergency doors cant be opened in flight. Most jetliner doors mechanically seal against the fuselage. And during flight, the cabin pressurization pushes against the door, pressure making it humanly impossible to open that door. The passenger who was taken off the jetliner was not arrested. And while the fbi says it is looking at the case, no charges have been filed. David kerley, abc news,
Reagan National<\/a> airport. Coming up in the next half hour, the latest lawsuit against

Its been the first time in 38 years since we had one of those total eclipses right here in north america. A big deal. Its actually more common than youd think. Well, that is if youre willing to constantly travel around the world to see them. Abcs david wright has more on eclipse chasers. Reporter america stood still, spell bound by a cosmic pot of dough. And it was easy for you to see why for some people once in a lifetime is not enough. This is real. People are feeling the hair standing up on the back of their neck. You are standing in the shadow of the moon. Like this phrase standing in the shadow people write poem about that line. Pink floyd music. Yeah, right. Reporter one of many classic songs. Eclipse. And everything ive ever sung its like a little kid that has to watch his mother go away and disappear, like thats scary. You know that it should be there. And luckily, it comes back, but because its so unnatural, i think the experience is one that you cant replicate in any other way. Reporter people get hooked on eclipses. In is my 11th total

Reporter we caught up her in torrington, wyoming where they were approaching with a mixture of excitement and dread. Its a huge deal. I dont think theres anything to compare it to. Reporter out on main street, the local h r black has transformed into a popup eclipse store, selling tshirts, tote bags and glasses. And i would imagine that youre thrilled that the eclipse isnt april 15th. Exactly. If it was april 15th, we would not be selling tshirts.

Talking about avocado, and apparently, you people who have been like digging the green and yellowish part of it for so many years. Uhhuh. Youve been doing it completely, completely wrong. What do you mean . Researchers from the university of texas analyzed the component of the avocado seed and found the chemicals that are in there can be used in antiviral medications, to inhibit the growth of tumor cells to reduce hardening and narrowing of arteries. Basically, the seed itself is the good part. Thats the part were supposed to eat . I thought if i ate the seed an avocado tree might grow in my stomach. Well, that might be possible, too. So this is yeah, thats the good part. Have a little himalayan sea salt. Here, maybe you need a little salt. Taste that thing. Im not sure im doing this the right way. You try to figure that one out. Oh, oh. Well come back to kendis and follow his progress on eating an avocado seed. But i want to take you to a different side. Sometimes drivers get caught up for different reasons, sometimes theres ducks crossing, a deer in the road. But dublin, ireland, check this out. Again, this is in dublin, ireland. Take a look at this video. That, my friends, is a camel in the road. What . And guess what, the camel does not care that you have plan and youre in a rush and youre trying to get by. Eventually, a man had to get out of his car, come over and basically walk the camel to clear the road, but it kind of reminds me of when the
Christmas Spectacular<\/a> is happening in new york city and they carry the camels into radio city music hall. And you see, every now and then there are tourists that dont know about the
Christmas Spectacular<\/a> and they just look so thoroughlily confused as to why theres a camel walking through. That tastes awful by the way. That wasnt . Uhhuh. So it wasnt the most delicious part of the avocado. I am not sure i prefer that its good for you. Speaking of teeth because i lost a couple in there. Someone lost their teeth over in england.
