secretary of state john kerry has said, that turkey's advance will become clearer after general john alan's visit on friday. mr. kerry said that turkey is committed to fighting isil but needed to tread carefully. >> these things have to be done in a thoughtful and careful way so everybody understands what is doing what, and what the implications are and where you go as a result, and i am absolutely confident that tomorrow the discussions will take place directly with ambassador and general allen, and general lloyd austin is very much involved in directing for strikes now. but this is a structure that is evolving on a daily basis, and notwithstanding the crisis in kobani, the original targets of our efforts have been the command and control centers, the infrastructure, we're trying to deprive the isil of overall ability that weighs this not just in kobani, but throughout syria and iraq. >> now here is the latest on the fight for kobani. >> reporter: syrian kurdish fighters on wednesday telling al jazeera that they believe they have seized the initiative in protecting their town and pu

what do you make of john kerry's explanation for why we're doing so little to stop the assault? >> they have given up and trying to explain themselves but it really won't fly. this is going to be a very major below to american credibility above all. >> why. >> because we have committed the greatest military in the world to destroying isis, since that happened four weeks ago, disis continued its march in iraq but taking over a really important town on the turkish border. >> kobani is in syria. >> it is. it will be again a coup for isis, to show they can stand up to the super power and take it down. >> but it's not -- there's symbolic element -- >> i agree with everything he said, there's also a political element which is that if we are going to succeed without putting major forces on ground, we need the help of the kurdish allies. the peshmerga is the force on the ground and this is sending a message that we really don't have their back, that we are not going to be their firm alies. >> why is turkey, they've got tanks on the border, troops are there, very powerful military. why a

those are the words of john kerry. there are two other americans held. mr. kerry says they're in constant touch with those families as well. much relief for family and friends of john fowle. >>> tensions are rising where a group of pro democracy activists have marched to the residence of the executive leader. he made the comments giving poor people was not a good idea. there's confrontation in another part of the city. taxi drivers who have lost trade in last few weeks tried to tear down the makeshift barricade. some of them used a crane. >> reporter: activists are here because they want the public to have a say who runs for the position of executive in three years. in rather controversial remarks made to western newspapers earlier this week, the current chief executive was quoted sayisay ing public nominations wouldn't be possible in part because it would give poor residents too much voting power. his remarks have not gone down well with these demonstrators who represent a dozen different organizations including people organizations. >> the poor and underpr

secretary john kerry has asked the pa to delay its u.n. security council bid measure here until after the midterm elections. is the pa distancing itself from the whole u.s. process? >> it is caught between the militancy of its own people and this kind of pragmatic adaptation to the power situation. dependence onc funding that is controlled by israel and the u.s., and also secured he forces -- the pa security forces have been trained under u.s. authorities. are in a very compromised position. so the palestinian authority leadership, in order to retain some modicum of legitimacy, has to appear to be reflecting the will of the palestinian people. and they have been trying to along,is tightrope all and it becomes more and more difficult. thatecent polls show hamas, even on the west bank, would now when the election is no election was held. and that is not because the shift toward islamic orientation, but because a mass, for all its problems and failures, resists and is resilient and has maintained the spirit of resistance that is so important

mat, we'll start with you, what do you make of john kerry's explanation for why we are doing so little to stop the assault on kob kobani? >> i think they have sort of given up on and trying to explain themselves, but it really won't fly because this is a major blow to american credibility. >> why? >> because we have committed the greatest military in the world to destroying isis. since that happened four weeks ago, isis has continued its march in iraq but is now taking over really an important town on the turkish border. >> and kobani to be clear is in northern syria. >> it is, but it will be a propaganda coup for isis. they will show they can stand up to the superpower and take it down. >> but it's not just -- i mean, there's a symbolic element. >> you don't disagree. >> i agree with everything he said. but there's also a political element, which is if we are going to succeed without putting major forces on the ground, we need the help of our kurdish allies. the kurdish fighters are the strongest on the ground. and this is sending the message to those in the kurdish region that we do

john kerry said kobane was never part of the strategy against i.s.i.l. what is happening in the town is a tragedy, but the focus is on iraq. we spoke to the head of the south proclaimed cannes tan of kobane, and they say they support operations against i.s.i.l., whether in syria or iraq, but it's the international community's responsibility to protect civilians, and warned of a massacre. when we talk about a battle on the ground, it's street-by-street. no movement has been made about taking more ground whether on i.s.i.l.'s positions or white people. >> now, in chile, indigenous protesters fought with riot police. police in the capital used water canon after rocks and firebombs are thrown at them. the protesters called for an end to the criminalisation of indigenous people. and the release of political prisoners. the protest coincided with anniversary commemorations of the arrival of christopher colombus in 1942 >>> south korean protest juniors and debtors release the balloons carrying leaflets. pyongyang is saying they were shot down because they contai

john kerry said the focus should be on defeating i.s.i.l. in iraq. >> kobane does not define the strategy. not with respect to dash. it is one community and it is a tragedy. we don't diminish that. we have said from day one that it will take a period of time to bringle coalition thoroughly to the table, to rebuild some of the moral and capacity of the iraqi army, and begin to focus where we ought to moction, which is in iraq. it is iraqis who will have to take back iraq. it is iraqis in anbar who will have to fight for anbar. we are confident that just as that happened before, that can and will happen again, though it will take some time to build that capacity in order for is to be able to be affected. so no one should anticipate as president obama said from day one. no one has been guilty of any exaggerated expectation here. certainly not from the administration. military leaders. civilian leaders from day one said this will be difficult. it will take time. we have to rebuild, we have to constitute the coalition. responsibilities have to be

secretary of state john kerry as and when they speak. israel's 50 day assault on gaza had a devastating impact. more than 2,000 were killed, including 511 children. the financial cost, though, is in the billions, for a population that suffered for years under israel's land and sea and air blockade. the palestinians seeking 4 billion to rebuild homes, schools and hospitals damaged by the bombing. in a moment we'll speak with the correspondent on the rafah border crossing in the gaza strip. in fact, we'll speak now. >> nts, the palestinians hoping to raise $4 billion at the catholic church, given the conflict is not resolved. do you think that's, perhaps, a tad optimistic. >> it's certainly not a lot of money, but underscores the scale of destruction here in gaza during that 50 day conflict. what we understand is that this $4 billion that the palestinians were asking for is for a three year reconstruction plan. they are hoping to get $1.5 billion at the commence for immediate construction relief, but there's a lot of problems across the ga

secretary of state john kerry is among those that arrived in cairo for an a.i.d.s. conference. in a moment we cross to rafah's border crossing. let's hear from charles stortford. >> reporter: this man inspects his irrigation pipes. tank tracks left scars in the sand, nothing remains of the tomato crop. >> translation: i lost $500,000 in the war. i could only salvage around 19. the west bank says the economic growth in pal stain dropped to minus it 100% in the first quarter of 2014. the war made a struggling economic situation worse. >> like many farmers in the area, they describe how the tanks came up from a border behind me, destroying crops and produce, generally money from a crop that has suffered for years under israel's blockade. >> mohammed's tomatoes would have ended up at a factory like this. this is the first year in 20 he has had to import tomatoes from abroad. israeli tank shells left around $6 million in damage, which used to produce tomato concentrate. >> translation: this is the biggest factory of its kind, if you count the farmers, traders and transport companies

secretary of state john kerry is due to meet his friend and russian counter part in paris. mr. kerry met the french foreign minister in paris on monday ahead of the high-level talks. russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov is expected to talk about the crisis in iraq and syria with the pair of them. so an interesting dynamic. let's hear more from our correspondent who is there monitoring these talks. what are we expecting from these three senior international diplomats? >> reporter: well, john kerry arrived here last night and he did hold a meeting with his french counterpart. now as we understand it, the meeting with sergei lavrov should be underway, but ever since he arrived here, john kerry and his team have been very tight lipped, i would say. we did hear from the french side. he had been calling for the coalition to be more robust, and france has indicated that it did not disagree with the turkish idea of creating a buffer zone between southern turkey and northern syria to really receive all of these displaced people. we know the u.s. has been very cautious about that idea

>> well, i think what you heard from john kerry is a sense of priorities. iraq comes first. iraq, i think, difficult though it is, is easier than syria. everything that is happening on the syrian side is much more difficult. i think what kerry is saying as well as establishing sense of priorities and he said look, kobane is one place. it is very difficult to do very much about it for two reasons. it is unspoken but clear. one is the position of the turkish government, which is the closest to what is happening in kobane. it's reluctance to get involved largely because of its own concerns about the kurdish issue. and the second is the absence on the ground in syria of the sort of forces that will be necessary to really sharpen the fight against isis. the americans are leading an air campaign even as they acknowledge that air action is going to be limited in its effectiveness. i think it may sound harsh, it may sound cynical, but for kerry to say that kobane is not the focus of the current efforts is, in fact, correct. the primary focus is iraq, where it is realtively easier to

. >> as we hear that from john kerry we bring in ash har quaraishi who is in dallas, in texas, where the man from liberia died a few hours ago. give us his background and what kind of treatment he received. >> reporter: well, david, in the last few days family members of thomas duncan had a glimmer of hope that he was responding well to the treatment here at the hospital. they say his vital signs was down. his heart rate down. they're saying now the question is what will happen to that body? according to the cdc, there are very specific ways that this body has to be handle because it becomes more contagious in dea death. >> john kerry is saying there is not enough international support, that everybody wants to step up and do more. there are changes to border controls, etc. >> absolutely. today the cdc announced five airports in the united states will begin enhanced screenings that will begin this weekend. new tracking from people in infected countries. five airports handle 60% of travelers coming from west africa, and those processes will be put in place starting this weekend. big ch

in july 2003 the democratic party fell into line with john kerry's portrayal. accused george bush of lying to to snooker the country into war. it was conducted in texas to benefit bush's oil cronies and dick cheney's former halliburton. the war was immoral, illegal and the necessary, he said bush lied and people died. this began a sabotage of america's effort to destroy the islamic terrorists in iraq and the middle east that lasted for the next five years. what was the response -- republican response to this treason? silence. republicans were too scared or too polite to fight back. after the damage was done karl rove admitted that this was his greatest mistake, but the damage was done. the centerpiece of the democrats's attack was that he lied about intelligence concerning the status of dom's programs to develop weapons of mass destruction. he lied about the intelligence to get their support for the unnecessary work. bush could not have wide. democrats like john kerry sat on the intelligence committees and had access to every piece of intelligence that bush did

secretary of state john kerry says ending the outbreak will be costly and every nation has a part to play. >> we know that nothing one or two countries together can solve it. there is no country that is exempt from being able to do something to be able to contribute to this effort and make a difference. if we do not address this current outbreak now then ebola has the potential to become a scourge like av -- like hiv and polio. we will end up finding it -- fighting it for decades. the >> john kerry speaking about the ebola crisis. >> a militant group had threatened to behead one of the captives only hours before finally letting them go. a 72-year-old doctor and his 55-year-old partner were captured whilst sailing earlier this year. a ransom of 4.3 million euros was demanded. now kurdish fighters say they have repelled a number of counterattacks by islamic state militants. >> the jihadists have lost ground to the kurds, who are backed by an ongoing campaign of us-led airstrikes. kurdish activists say the ins now holds only 15% to 20% on the kurdish -- on the turkish order -- turkish b

a lot of stuff to work out here here to john kerry trying to strike a positive note. it is fair to say that turkey is still gawking at that more muscular role. >> before it became a battleground for the islamic state group and the coalition, it had a population of some 70,000. that has now dwindled down to the hundreds. the fighting has split up families with some finding shelter across the border in turkey. >> plumes of smoke rise over the city as us-led airstrikes have intensified. from this hill across the border in turkey, kurds anxiously watched the fighting unfold. he came to turkey for business, leaving behind his family. the war has separated him from his wife and children were now stranded. >> i can't get through. i fear they are already dead. >> unable to get through, he tries again from the hill. he can see the district seized by jihadists. anxious to hear from his family. then, he receives a phone call. it his his daughter could -- it is his daughter. >> things are all full here. we can't get out. the jihadists are here and there is a lot of shooting. >> d

on wednesday, secretary of state john kerry said preventing kobani's fall is not a strategic u.s. objective. >> as her if it as it is -- horrific as it is to watch in real time, what is happening in kobani is also important to remember, you have to step back and understand the strategic objective and where we have begun over the course of the last week's. notwithstanding the crisis in targets of original our efforts to been the command and control centers, infrastructure, trying to deprive isil of the overall ability to wage this, not just in kobani, but throughout syria and into iraq. >> if kobani were to fall to the islamic state, the group would be in control of more than half of syria's border with turkey. we will have more on kobani after the headlines. meanwhile in iraq, the ongoing u.s. airstrikes have reportedly killed up to 22 civilians and an bar province. according to iraqi media, and attack earlier this week it a market in an apartment building in the town of hit. four to them were reportedly among the dead with dozens of people wounded. the pentagon has dismissed the
