:00:00. > :00:11.Pictures emerge in Iraq appearing to show ISIS forces capturing

:00:12. > :00:14.and then killing Iraqi troops. The images cannot be independently

:00:15. > :00:17.verified, but with ISIS now in control of large areas of Iraq,

:00:18. > :00:21.Whatever form of intervention we choose,

:00:22. > :00:26.it's going to be difficult, but it's better than the alternative.

:00:27. > :00:28.David Cameron says its time to be more assertive

:00:29. > :00:34.about promoting British values and demand them of everyone in the UK.

:00:35. > :00:37.With three teenagers still missing in Israel, Prime Minister Netanyahu

:00:38. > :00:44.accuses the militant group Hamas of abducting them.

:00:45. > :00:48.And the ecstasy and the agony as England lose their World Cup

:00:49. > :01:14.The former Prime Minster Tony Blair says Britain and the United States

:01:15. > :01:16.should intervene to tackle the crisis in Iraq.

:01:17. > :01:19.He says military action - possibly in the form of air strikes

:01:20. > :01:23.- might be required to defeat ISIS extremists who have taken control

:01:24. > :01:28.of several key areas and are threatening the capital Baghdad.

:01:29. > :01:30.Unverified photographs have emerged online, appearing to show

:01:31. > :01:37.the execution of dozens of Iraqi troops captured by ISIS fighters.

:01:38. > :01:39.From Baghdad, Jonathan Beale sent this report, which includes

:01:40. > :01:52.These are the latest images purporting to come from the front

:01:53. > :02:01.line. Scores of men, reportedly captured Iraqi troop 's, rounded up

:02:02. > :02:05.onto trucks on their way to be executed by Sunni extremists. The

:02:06. > :02:08.pictures were posted on an ISIS Twitter account. A spokesman said

:02:09. > :02:14.nearly 300 men were slaughtered by two crit, but we cannot verify the

:02:15. > :02:18.claim. In Baghdad, hundreds are still signing up to join the Iraqi

:02:19. > :02:22.army to take on the Sunni extremists. Young and old, even a

:02:23. > :02:30.mother of two sons already in the Army. She says she wants to enlist

:02:31. > :02:34.as well. It's over a decade since Tony Blair backed George Bush's

:02:35. > :02:37.invasion of Iraq to topple Saddam Hussein. The former Prime Minister

:02:38. > :02:42.is still making no apologies for that decision. There is an

:02:43. > :02:45.acknowledgement that mistakes were made. What we underestimated about

:02:46. > :02:50.Iraq, Afghanistan and the whole of the region is that once you remove

:02:51. > :02:53.the dictatorship outcomes this tribal, ethnic and above all

:02:54. > :02:58.religious tension. And then you are engaged in a different type of

:02:59. > :03:02.struggle against that. Others are convinced it was the Iraq war that

:03:03. > :03:08.sowed the seeds is of the chaos, violence and fear now tearing this

:03:09. > :03:15.country apart. If, in Syria and Iraq, there is a Sunni extremist

:03:16. > :03:20.entity, with ISIS in charge, which carves out a place for itself, it

:03:21. > :03:24.will be the great irony of the modern era. President Bush said he

:03:25. > :03:29.wanted to go into Iraq to fight terrorism. There was no terrorists.

:03:30. > :03:34.There are now. Iraqi forces, with the help of militia, appear to have

:03:35. > :03:39.slowed down the advice of the ISIS extremists, who have been helped by

:03:40. > :03:45.disillusioned Sunnis. Tony Blair still believes the West will have to

:03:46. > :03:48.step in. Intervention is tough. Partial intervention is tough.

:03:49. > :03:51.Nonintervention is also tough. The best policy for us is to realise

:03:52. > :03:55.whatever form of intervention we choose, it is going to be difficult,

:03:56. > :03:58.but it's better than the alternative. We have to look at

:03:59. > :04:02.Syria, Iraq and the region in context. We have to understand what

:04:03. > :04:07.is going on and engage. That doesn't mean, by the way, engagement as in

:04:08. > :04:11.Iraq and Afghanistan, ground troops. But it does mean we actively try to

:04:12. > :04:14.shape this situation with our allies in the region and don't believe if

:04:15. > :04:20.we wash our hands of it, and walk away, problems will be solved. On

:04:21. > :04:23.the streets of Baghdad, Shia militia seemed less interested in shaping

:04:24. > :04:28.the politics of the Middle East. They are thinking more about

:04:29. > :04:31.revenge. Shia militia are now openly patrolling the streets of Baghdad.

:04:32. > :04:35.The lines between the Iraqi army had this checkpoint and the militia are

:04:36. > :04:43.becoming extremely blurred. The danger for Iraq is that this will

:04:44. > :04:46.only deepen the sectarian divide. Any Western military intervention

:04:47. > :04:50.will be hard to sell back home, given the bitter experience of the

:04:51. > :04:56.past. Nor is there any guarantee that it will help bridge the divide

:04:57. > :05:04.in Iraq the Queen Sunni and Shia. -- between Sunni and Shia. John Simson

:05:05. > :05:08.is in Baghdad. Tony Blair, so is closely associated with Iraq in

:05:09. > :05:14.recent years. What do you make of what he had to say? Cull of course,

:05:15. > :05:18.people June into what Tony Blair is saying because they are hoping he

:05:19. > :05:28.will say sorry for 2003. He never does. This is clearly another

:05:29. > :05:32.element of his defence, as well as casting it forward and looking at

:05:33. > :05:37.the situation. I should say, just as we came on air, a minute or so ago,

:05:38. > :05:42.there was quite a large... Sounded like a car bomb, not far away. That

:05:43. > :05:46.is the second there has been today in Baghdad. As for Tony Blair's

:05:47. > :05:51.views about things, well, nobody is ever going to agree about the causes

:05:52. > :06:00.of what is happening now. Except that when he says that the reason

:06:01. > :06:03.for the rise in Sunni fundamentalism here is the way that the present

:06:04. > :06:10.government in Iraq has been behaving, that is to say pro-Shia

:06:11. > :06:15.and anti-Sunni, he is right about that. But the thing is, it is mostly

:06:16. > :06:23.about rhetoric, rather than about politics. It also seems likely that

:06:24. > :06:27.he is right that the Americans will do something, will intervene in some

:06:28. > :06:31.way. Not with soldiers on the ground, of course, but with bombing

:06:32. > :06:35.of some kind. But that has its dangers as well.

:06:36. > :06:37.Johnson sent, our world affairs editor.

:06:38. > :06:42.David Cameron has been defending his plan to have "British values"

:06:43. > :06:43.taught in every school in England, saying that a more muscular

:06:44. > :06:45.promotion of them is needed. His plan is a response to

:06:46. > :06:48.allegations about an Islamist Today, the newly appointed head

:06:49. > :06:52.of the Muslim Council of Britain broadly welcomed the

:06:53. > :06:54.Prime Minister's move, but said asserting Britishness should not be

:06:55. > :06:57.used as an excuse for Islamophobia. Our Political Correspondent Gary

:06:58. > :07:10.O'Donoghue reports. Trooping the Colour this weekend.

:07:11. > :07:16.For many, the ultimate in pomp and circumstance. A tradition dating

:07:17. > :07:20.back to the 17th century, that you might say symbolises what it means

:07:21. > :07:23.to be British. But despite such displays, the Prime Minister

:07:24. > :07:28.believes it is time to be more muscular in promoting British

:07:29. > :07:34.values. In a newspaper article, he says those values include a belief

:07:35. > :07:36.in freedom, tolerance of others, accepting personal and social

:07:37. > :07:42.responsibility, respecting and upholding the rule of law. He added,

:07:43. > :07:49.to me, they are as British as the union flag, as football, as fish and

:07:50. > :07:53.chips. In East London today, the Muslim Council of written, which

:07:54. > :07:57.represents more than 500 groups around the country, passed a motion

:07:58. > :08:03.saying it had deep concerns about the tone and tenor of the debate on

:08:04. > :08:07.British values. Their new head was more conciliatory. I think what is

:08:08. > :08:12.important is that these values are not seen through a prism of

:08:13. > :08:18.Islamophobia or anything. These are values that we all need to work

:08:19. > :08:21.together and exercise. Outside the conference centre, there was limited

:08:22. > :08:30.agreement over David Cameron's views. I suppose British people are

:08:31. > :08:35.very self-deprecating. We do tend to be quite down on ourselves. What do

:08:36. > :08:38.you think? With the World Cup on at the moment, I'm seeing a lot of

:08:39. > :08:42.negative sides to being British at the moment. The debate is

:08:43. > :08:46.particularly charged after allegations of a hardline plot by

:08:47. > :08:50.Muslims to take over some schools in Birmingham. Five have been put into

:08:51. > :08:54.special measures. Ministers say all schools in England will be required

:08:55. > :08:57.to teach British values from the autumn. It is a small group of

:08:58. > :09:01.Muslims that have done this. Therefore, nobody should vilify the

:09:02. > :09:05.whole Muslim community. What we have to do, what I am trying to do, it's

:09:06. > :09:10.target those small groups of individuals and make sure they

:09:11. > :09:14.respect each other. The quintessential images of Britain are

:09:15. > :09:16.easy to agree on. Finding common ground on tricky things like values

:09:17. > :09:19.will be much harder. Israel has accused the Palestinian

:09:20. > :09:21.militant group Hamas of kidnapping three teenagers who've been missing

:09:22. > :09:24.for the last three days. About 80 Palestinians, including

:09:25. > :09:26.dozens of members of Hamas, have been arrested during searches

:09:27. > :09:30.in and around the West Bank. Hamas has praised the kidnapping,

:09:31. > :09:34.but denied it is responsible. Our Middle East Correspondent

:09:35. > :09:48.Quentin Sommerville reports. Israeli soldiers, pouring into the

:09:49. > :09:54.occupied West Bank in the hunt for three missing teenagers. Israel says

:09:55. > :09:56.the boys have been kidnapped. 80 Palestinians were detained. The

:09:57. > :10:04.missing are 19-year-old Eyal Yifrach, Naftali Frenkel and Gilad

:10:05. > :10:08.Shaar, both 16. Like many people here, the teenagers were hitchhiking

:10:09. > :10:11.home. It is thought they might have got into a car somewhere around

:10:12. > :10:20.here. This was the last spot where they were seen. That was three days

:10:21. > :10:25.ago. As the search continued, Eyal Yifrach's mother appealed for their

:10:26. > :10:32.quick return. We trust that boys coming home, on their way from

:10:33. > :10:39.school, just an their way home, they will be with us here and we will hug

:10:40. > :10:43.them soon. But this is quickly escalating into a political crisis.

:10:44. > :10:49.Israel's Prime Minister says that militants were to blame. These

:10:50. > :10:54.children were kidnapped and the kidnapping was carried out by Hamas

:10:55. > :11:02.members. Hamas denials do not change this fact. Hamas previously

:11:03. > :11:06.kidnapped aqua-dam up. He was held for five years and then released.

:11:07. > :11:11.But the group denies kidnapping the teenagers. A Starbucks and said, the

:11:12. > :11:14.statements are silly statements. We believe the extensive arrests of

:11:15. > :11:21.Hamas leaders, administrators and legislators are aimed at breaking

:11:22. > :11:25.the will of Hamas in the West Bank. Tensions are increasing.

:11:26. > :11:27.Israeli-Palestinian relations may hinge on the safe return of three

:11:28. > :11:32.missing teenagers. The authorities in Pakistan say

:11:33. > :11:34.a comprehensive military operation is underway to target militants

:11:35. > :11:37.blamed for the attack on Karachi Civilians have been fleeing

:11:38. > :11:42.Waziristan, close to the Afghan border, where

:11:43. > :11:45.air strikes have been taking place. Pakistan says 80 militants have been

:11:46. > :11:47.killed so far, including an Uzbek man accused

:11:48. > :11:50.of masterminding the airport attack, Ukraine is holding a day

:11:51. > :11:54.of mourning for 49 servicemen killed when their plane was shot down by

:11:55. > :11:59.pro-Russian separatists yesterday. A gathering in Independence Square

:12:00. > :12:02.in Kiev observed a minute's silence. The shooting down

:12:03. > :12:05.of the plane has raised tensions with Russia, with the Russian

:12:06. > :12:08.embassy in Kiev attacked. Moscow has criticised the Ukrainian

:12:09. > :12:11.authorities for failing to stop The England manager says he's

:12:12. > :12:19.confident the team can still qualify for the knock out stages

:12:20. > :12:22.of the World Cup despite their 2-1 Roy Hodgson said England put

:12:23. > :12:26.on an attacking and confident display and were gutted to return to

:12:27. > :12:30.their base in Rio with nothing. Let's cross there now

:12:31. > :12:44.for the latest with Olly Foster. Well, England's players have been

:12:45. > :12:48.given the day off after arriving back here. Some gentle recovery work

:12:49. > :12:52.for them after their exertions in the Amazon and a four hour-long

:12:53. > :12:54.overnight flight. Yes, there were positives, but crucially no points

:12:55. > :12:57.for them. England had a four-hour flight back

:12:58. > :13:02.to their base in Rio to try and comprehend just how a

:13:03. > :13:05.performance full of vim and vigour In the sultry heat of the jungle,

:13:06. > :13:09.the Three Lions needed to roar. Like the temperature, England's

:13:10. > :13:13.pace from the off was blistering. Roy Hodgson's bold inclusion

:13:14. > :13:15.of Liverpool's fearless teenager, Raheem Sterling, almost paid

:13:16. > :13:20.off inside just four minutes. But it only takes one moment,

:13:21. > :13:23.and this Italian corner was straight The peerless Pirlo cleverly

:13:24. > :13:37.leading the ball to Marchisio. Just two minutes later came

:13:38. > :13:41.the equaliser. Wayne Rooney have been largely

:13:42. > :13:44.ineffectual, stuck out wide. But his fizzing cross to

:13:45. > :13:46.Daniel Sturridge got a nation In Rio, those that couldn't get to

:13:47. > :13:50.the Amazon Even the Brazilian crowd cheering

:13:51. > :13:55.for Italy must have appreciated But for head physio Gary Lewin,

:13:56. > :14:01.there was pain in the pleasure. He dislocated his ankle

:14:02. > :14:02.during the celebrations The mercurial Mario Balotelli is

:14:03. > :14:11.well-known to England's defenders but when Gary Cahill failed to track

:14:12. > :14:17.him, he gave Joe Hart no chance. Rooney was just inches wide

:14:18. > :14:19.from scoring But Hodgson's anguish summed up

:14:20. > :14:31.the thoughts of a watching nation. But you've got to give Italy credit,

:14:32. > :14:34.it goes to show how good they are, the standard

:14:35. > :14:36.of players they possess. If we match that performance

:14:37. > :14:38.in the next two games, we'll get six points and come out of

:14:39. > :14:49.the group. The day following a World Cup defeat

:14:50. > :14:53.is usually punctuated with the sound of despair. But many pundits agree

:14:54. > :14:58.with a cause for optimism. I actually enjoyed it, I thought the

:14:59. > :15:01.substitutions were positive. We wanted to get a result, he probably

:15:02. > :15:05.believes he deserved a result, which I think he probably dead. England

:15:06. > :15:11.rolled the dice, but the bold gamble ultimately didn't pay off. After

:15:12. > :15:17.Uruguay also lost, their game against England could now be win or

:15:18. > :15:22.bust for Roy Hodgson's men. As you saw, thousands of fans on the

:15:23. > :15:23.beach watching the match on the big screen. Millions back home were

:15:24. > :15:26.glued to the game as well. Watching England on

:15:27. > :15:30.the telly means going from this... Every World Cup,

:15:31. > :15:33.a descent into disappointment. But in this corner of West London,

:15:34. > :15:37.they are still in love with England. They went out there

:15:38. > :15:41.and they gave their all. You know?

:15:42. > :15:44.It just weren't to be. But I'm still confident, I still

:15:45. > :15:50.think we'll get through the group. United in excitement by the

:15:51. > :15:53.performance, there are disagreements

:15:54. > :15:55.about the way forward. Put Rooney back where he should be

:15:56. > :16:04.playing and you watch him score. Of course, there is another form

:16:05. > :16:12.of Sunday World Cup reaction. How does that feel,

:16:13. > :16:17.being an Italian fan with so much England support around

:16:18. > :16:19.you? Well, it was the first

:16:20. > :16:22.time for me, to watch a match of the World Cup in

:16:23. > :16:26.a foreign country. But it was nice, because

:16:27. > :16:31.everybody is really friendly. In Leeds, at Francesco Mazella's

:16:32. > :16:33.restaurant, Sunday lunch But there is diplomacy amongst

:16:34. > :16:39.the linguine. On the night,

:16:40. > :16:42.I think the best team won. But I think England played a nice

:16:43. > :16:43.game. But I was really happy

:16:44. > :16:46.when the second goal came. I think Balotelli put

:16:47. > :16:50.a nice icing on the cake. Well, the twists in the pasta may

:16:51. > :16:53.be many in the days to come. In Acton, Mr Hodgson, they will

:16:54. > :16:57.be keeping the flags flying. There are three more matches today,

:16:58. > :17:06.France face Honduras in the next hour Argentina play

:17:07. > :17:14.Bosnia Herzegovina here in Rio later this evening,

:17:15. > :17:17.It's currently Switzerland 0. Ivory Coast came from a goal

:17:18. > :17:27.down to beat Japan 2-1. England's

:17:28. > :17:30.cricketer's have been losing wickets at Lords in the First Test

:17:31. > :17:32.against Sri Lanka. They were defending a first innings

:17:33. > :17:35.lead of 122 runs and their former star batsmen was there to see how

:17:36. > :17:49.they would fare on the fourth day - not very well, captain

:17:50. > :17:52.Alastair Cook was caught behind off Eranga for 28 and despite his double

:17:53. > :17:56.ton in the first innings Joe Root soon followed for 15 trapped lbw by

:17:57. > :18:03.Rangana Herath Tennis now and with The first ever monument to remember

:18:04. > :18:13.those who served and died in the Navy has been unveiled by Prince

:18:14. > :18:16.Michael of Kent - and the first sea The site is the National Memorial

:18:17. > :18:20.Arboretum in Staffordshire, from where our Defence Correspondent

:18:21. > :18:23.Caroline Wyatt reports. Gillian Molyneux

:18:24. > :18:25.and her four children, aged from six to 16, came here today

:18:26. > :18:28.to remember her late husband, their I think about him every minute,

:18:29. > :18:33.every day. The lieutenant commander was shot

:18:34. > :18:36.dead on his submarine, HMS Astute, We make a concerted effort to come

:18:37. > :18:47.at least once a year, if not more. With it being Father's Day today,

:18:48. > :18:52.it's extremely poignant for us. But it's nice for

:18:53. > :18:54.the children to be able to remember not just the sombre moments,

:18:55. > :18:57.not just about the fact that he is gone, but to recognise his service

:18:58. > :19:08.and everything that was wonderful. At midday,

:19:09. > :19:10.the new memorial was dedicated in thanks giving to the men and women

:19:11. > :19:21.of the Royal Navy who laid down then I think, in that sense,

:19:22. > :19:27.it's an absolutely fitting tribute to the Navy's contribution to

:19:28. > :19:33.our history and our heritage. The lone sculpted figure

:19:34. > :19:36.of a sailor looks to the west, The glass panels behind represent

:19:37. > :19:43.the colours of the five oceans. It is so different, but it's

:19:44. > :19:51.the epitome of all the difference I think it will mean quite a lot

:19:52. > :19:58.for all naval personnel
