:01:38. > :01:40.The Government says it's examining every possible option to protect
:01:41. > :01:45.a British man who's been threatened with death by Islamic State
:01:46. > :01:47.fighters. Last night, the militants released
:01:48. > :01:50.a video appearing to show the beheading of a second American
:01:51. > :01:53.journalist, Steven Sotloff. In it, they claimed a British
:01:54. > :01:56.hostage would be next. Speaking in the Commons,
:01:57. > :01:59.the Prime Minister insisted that Britain would "never give in"
:02:00. > :02:02.to the Islamist militants. But tonight,
:02:03. > :02:04.David Cameron is under pressure from some MPs to toughen his response to
:02:05. > :02:05.the threat from Islamic State. Here's our deputy political
:02:06. > :02:16.editor James Landale. Steven Sotloff, freelance
:02:17. > :02:20.journalist, American citizen and now the second hostage to be murdered by
:02:21. > :02:24.Islamic State, joining his countryman James Foley as the latest
:02:25. > :02:28.westerner apparently beheaded by the extremists. The fear now is that the

:02:35. > :02:37.the face of a British hostage, a 44-year-old man with family in

:02:57. > :03:01.Cameron is now facing. A country like ours will not be powered by
:03:02. > :03:08.these barbaric killers. His aim was clear. This so-called Islamic
:03:09. > :03:14.caliphate is unacceptable and needs to be squeezed out of existence.
:03:15. > :03:18.Labour agreed. I agree with the Prime Minister, events like this
:03:19. > :03:22.must strengthen, not weaken our resolve and he can be assured of our
:03:23. > :03:26.full support. What potentially could be the Prime Minister do to protect
:03:27. > :03:32.the British hostage? He could attempt a rescue mission but the US
:03:33. > :03:37.tried this and failed. He could step up diplomatic pressure on regional
:03:38. > :03:44.powers to do more to combat Islamic State, but that might not come in
:03:45. > :03:50.time. Or air strikes against Islamic State. This option is not all out.
:03:51. > :03:53.Ministers say they won't allow terrorism to dictate strategy. But
:03:54. > :04:00.demands for a tougher response are growing, not just on the
:04:01. > :04:05.Conservative benches. IS will not be beaten without air strikes in Syria
:04:06. > :04:13.as well. That means engaging with the acid regime in Iran and the
:04:14. > :04:15.Saudis, however unpalatable. We should use air strikes to diminish
:04:16. > :04:24.their military capability so that the countries who are our allies can
:04:25. > :04:28.be with them more effectively on their own. Ministers accept that at
:04:29. > :04:31.some stage they may have to consider air strikes, but only as part of a
:04:32. > :04:34.long-term plan to deal with Islamic State, not in a short-term response
:04:35. > :04:39.to the threat of another hostage killing. As ever, any decision by
:04:40. > :04:43.Britain to join in air strikes like these would have to be signed off by
:04:44. > :04:48.the Americans, who for now appear to some as pretty cautious. It is very
:04:49. > :04:58.important from my perspective that when we send our pilots in, to do a
:04:59. > :05:03.job... We know this is a mission that is going to work, that we are
:05:04. > :05:08.clear and our objectives, our targets, we have made the case to
:05:09. > :05:12.Congress and the American people... Tonight, David Cameron arrived in
:05:13. > :05:16.Wales ahead of the NATO summit where he will discuss the crisis with
:05:17. > :05:17.fellow leaders. Their opposition to Islamic State is clear. What he and

:05:28. > :05:32.Britons travelling abroad to fight with groups in Syria and Iraq,
:05:33. > :05:37.the parents of a 20-year-old woman from Glasgow have spoken of their

:05:40. > :05:46.Aqsa's parents, Khalida and Muzaffar Mahmood, say they were horrified
:05:47. > :05:54.Her family hoped she would become a doctor and save lives. Instead she
:05:55. > :05:59.is in Syria, radicalised and married to an Islamic State fighter. Her
:06:00. > :06:09.parents say they feel betrayed. A solicitor spoke on their behalf.
:06:10. > :06:13.Aqsa was always a sweet and inquisitive child. All parents want
:06:14. > :06:18.to be proud of their child but sadly we feel nothing but sorrow and shame
:06:19. > :06:21.for Aqsa. Comments on social media which seemed to be from the
:06:22. > :06:25.20-year-old appeared to promote terrorism. One says, follow the
:06:26. > :06:30.examples of your brothers from Woolwich, Texas and Boston. Another
:06:31. > :06:34.says, if you cannot make it to the battlefield, then bring the
:06:35. > :06:37.battlefields do yourself. Aqsa appears to have at a normal at
:06:38. > :06:43.bringing in Glasgow. She went to private school and university. -- a
:06:44. > :06:46.normal upbringing. Her parents say she became a bedroom radical and
:06:47. > :06:53.they warned that if it can happen to them, it can happen to anyone. They
:06:54. > :07:01.cannot and -- understand what happened. There is no smoking gun,
:07:02. > :07:03.no family member that can be blamed for her radicalisation. We have
:07:04. > :07:08.spent months asking ourselves whether we could have done better
:07:09. > :07:11.and we still do not know the answer. Their message to their daughter,
:07:12. > :07:17.they still love her and want her to come home.
:07:18. > :07:20.Mahmood, say they were horrified Well, the BBC has learnt that a team
:07:21. > :07:23.of international investigators, paid for by the British Government,
:07:24. > :07:26.are trying to compile evidence against Islamic State fighters who
:07:27. > :07:28.are carrying out these atrocities - evidence which could eventually be
:07:29. > :07:31.used to prosecute them for crimes against humanity.
:07:32. > :07:34.But how likely is it that they will be brought to justice?
:07:35. > :07:37.Frank Gardner reports. As the list grows longer
:07:38. > :07:41.of apparent atrocities by Islamic State fighters, will anyone
:07:42. > :07:43.ever be held to account? We have learned that, throughout
:07:44. > :07:47.this year, a team of international investigators with extensive
:07:48. > :07:52.experience in war crimes, funded by the British Government, has been
:07:53. > :07:55.compiling evidence for prosecution. The BBC has been given the first
:07:56. > :07:59.exclusive access to their work. For their own safety, they have
:08:00. > :08:03.asked to remain anonymous. But who exactly are
:08:04. > :08:06.they going after? We are after the highest level
:08:07. > :08:08.members of the IS, because these individuals are just as responsible
:08:09. > :08:12.for the countless murders as those men who kill with their own hands.
:08:13. > :08:15.Indeed those leaders are more responsible.
:08:16. > :08:18.On the ground in Syria, and in the neighbouring countries,
:08:19. > :08:20.the investigators say they have numerous sources feeding them back
:08:21. > :08:27.information and original documents, building up an intricate picture
:08:28. > :08:29.of the workings of Islamic State. Some sources are even
:08:30. > :08:34.inside its ranks, operating at huge personal risk.
:08:35. > :08:37.Very rarely do we get documentation such as this,
:08:38. > :08:39.the actual minutes of an Islamic State provincial level meeting.
:08:40. > :08:43.This kind of thing is golddust to us, because
:08:44. > :08:48.it shows there is a clear chain of command that controls everything
:08:49. > :08:51.that happens in that region. This is the command structure
:08:52. > :08:55.of Islamic State as compiled by the investigators.
:08:56. > :08:58.At the top, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the self-appointed caliph.
:08:59. > :09:02.Directly below him, four councils, most importantly Military
:09:03. > :09:06.and Security. This one-plus-four structure is
:09:07. > :09:11.then duplicated throughout the provinces where IS has a presence.
:09:12. > :09:17.Now the team is starting to put senior names to posts,
:09:18. > :09:20.joining up a web of the wanted. They conclude that the Islamic State
:09:21. > :09:23.is far more organised than previously thought.
:09:24. > :09:25.What we are witnessing is the process of nation-building, which
:09:26. > :09:28.includes the provision of services, looking after the population.
:09:29. > :09:33.There is a military element, of course, but the Islamic State is
:09:34. > :09:36.just what it says it is. So where do British jihadis fit
:09:37. > :09:39.into this picture? Once across the border into Syria,
:09:40. > :09:43.they get assigned specific roles in IS.
:09:44. > :09:46.So far none appear to have reached the upper ranks.
:09:47. > :09:50.By and large, the Westerners are given menial low-level tasks
:09:51. > :09:52.by the commanders because they tend to arrive with no discernible
:09:53. > :09:55.battlefield skills so it assumed they are better off providing
:09:56. > :09:58.support services to the group, as they are unlikely to have
:09:59. > :10:02.the skills, religious and military, that IS is looking for.
:10:03. > :10:06.Inside these boxes down in the basement of the investigation
:10:07. > :10:10.team's headquarters is the hard evidence which they say points to
:10:11. > :10:14.the leaders of Islamic State deemed culpable for some of the atrocities
:10:15. > :10:18.carried out in Syria. They believe it will be ready to
:10:19. > :10:21.take to prosecution by the end of this year.
:10:22. > :10:23.But arresting well protected Islamic State leaders in the ongoing
:10:24. > :10:27.conflict will be almost impossible, and there's another problem.
:10:28. > :10:34.Even when the prosecution files are complete, there is no court
:10:35. > :10:37.yet ready to try them. David Cameron has just arrived
:10:38. > :10:40.in Newport ahead of tomorrow's NATO summit.
:10:41. > :10:46.Our political editor Nick Robinson is there.
:10:47. > :10:52.What are the chances of Britain being drawn back into another war?
:10:53. > :10:56.What we are not going to see is an immediate military response to the
:10:57. > :11:00.plight of this British hostage, in part because ministers have known
:11:01. > :11:03.about it for a long time. In truth, the media have known about it for a
:11:04. > :11:08.long time and agreed to keep it secret in the hope of helping to
:11:09. > :11:13.preserve his life. What we are also not going to see is any repeat of
:11:14. > :11:17.the Iraq war of just over a decade ago, when Bush and Blair launched
:11:18. > :11:21.the invasion of Iraq. But what we are beginning to see is a sort of
:11:22. > :11:25.repeat of the coalition building that was tried by George Bush senior
:11:26. > :11:31.in 1990, a big array of countries that got together in order to deal
:11:32. > :11:35.with Sadam Hussein's invasion of. Kuwait Today David Cameron insisted
:11:36. > :11:41.that any intervention would not be western. They want it to be
:11:42. > :11:47.requested by the government, supported by Arab countries,
:11:48. > :11:53.particularly those in the Gulf. Ministers tell me they think there
:11:54. > :11:57.is both a legal and moral case for military action in Iraq. They have
:11:58. > :12:01.not made a decision yet but what will sway them perhaps is the
:12:02. > :12:05.atmosphere in the House of Commons today. Little criticism of that, a
:12:06. > :12:09.few warnings, most people were urging them on. Intriguingly, Labour
:12:10. > :12:14.leader Ed Miliband, although he is of course keeping his options open,
:12:15. > :12:17.was very warm in his support of the Prime Minister and his assistants --
:12:18. > :12:22.insistence that everything that needs to be done should be done to
:12:23. > :12:25.confront Islamic State forces. Thank you.
:12:26. > :12:28.is there. The parents of Ashya King have been
:12:29. > :12:31.reunited with their five-year-old son at the hospital in Spain where
:12:32. > :12:33.he is being cared for. Ashya,
:12:34. > :12:35.who's seriously ill with a brain tumour, was taken against medical
:12:36. > :12:37.advice from Southampton Hospital by Brett and Naghemeh King last week.
:12:38. > :12:39.They were freed from custody last night after
:12:40. > :12:42.the British authorities abandoned their attempts to extradite them.
:12:43. > :12:43.Jon Kay has been speaking to them today.
:12:44. > :12:51.He's in Malaga now. Right now, on the fourth floor, the
:12:52. > :12:58.cancer ward of the Children's Hospital, the Kings are reunited
:12:59. > :13:02.with their little boy. They got here a few hours ago. They seemed
:13:03. > :13:06.exhausted talking to me today, overwhelmed, baffled by what has
:13:07. > :13:13.happened in the last few days, but most of all so relieved to be back
:13:14. > :13:17.here with him. This was no ordinary hospital visit. The story of the
:13:18. > :13:25.King family has been followed all over the world. But now, released
:13:26. > :13:30.from prison, Brett and Naghemeh King could finally see their son, waiting
:13:31. > :13:34.for them upstairs, five-year-old Ashya, seriously ill with brain
:13:35. > :13:39.cancer. In an exclusive BBC interview after their release from
:13:40. > :13:43.prison last night, Ashya's parents told me they were desperate to get
:13:44. > :13:48.to the hospital. I just want to wet his mouth because he cannot drink
:13:49. > :13:52.through his mouth, brushes teeth, turn him from side to side every 15
:13:53. > :13:56.minutes because he can't move. I just want to do all of those things
:13:57. > :14:01.for him that I was doing in Southampton. As a mother, can you
:14:02. > :14:05.explain what it has been like for the last few days, being separated
:14:06. > :14:10.from your sick little boy? All the time I was crying, crying and
:14:11. > :14:14.praying so I could be reunited with him again. Their decision to take
:14:15. > :14:17.their little boy from Southampton General Hospital against medical
:14:18. > :14:22.advice and seek alternative treatment abroad led to Ashya's
:14:23. > :14:22.parents being the subject of a European arrest
:14:23. > :14:25.parents being the subject of a European warrant. But last night
:14:26. > :14:30.they were freed from prison, the case against them dropped in the UK
:14:31. > :14:35.after a review of the evidence. The couple had spent three days and
:14:36. > :14:40.nights in custody. How angry are you about all this? I wouldn't say
:14:41. > :14:45.angry, I am just missing my son so much. My heart is aching for my son.
:14:46. > :14:50.Anger cannot come in at the moment because I have these feelings that I
:14:51. > :14:54.have got to see my son's face. Southampton general claimed today
:14:55. > :14:58.that doctors had been trying to support the family while they
:14:59. > :15:02.arranged for treatment for Ashya and they were very concerned when his
:15:03. > :15:07.parents suddenly took him from the hospital, and that is why they
:15:08. > :15:12.alerted the police. I can understand that they were upset, yes, but I
:15:13. > :15:16.don't think it is ever in a child's best interest to be taken from a
:15:17. > :15:25.place of safety when the risks of being taken were known, without
:15:26. > :15:32.anyone within the medical profession knowing that they were leaving. I
:15:33. > :15:41.told them over and over again... They say they told the doctors they
:15:42. > :15:44.were planning to go to Prague, but they admit they did not tell the
:15:45. > :15:49.doctors they are going to Spain that day. There are many questions about
:15:50. > :15:53.what has happened to this little boy in the last week, but right now his
:15:54. > :16:13.parents only concern is spending time with him once again. He might
:16:14. > :16:18.have to have some chemotherapy, either here or in the UK, before he
:16:19. > :16:26.can be moved. But his mother says she will not be leaving his side.
:16:27. > :16:29.Jon, thank you. The time is just after a quarter past six.

:21:30. > :21:34.leader for a long time. I like him as a person and his politics. He is
:21:35. > :21:38.a very honourable person and a smart politician.
:21:39. > :21:43.President Obama told the people of the Baltics and more American forces
:21:44. > :21:49.were on the ground carrying out training and more NATO aircraft in

:23:35. > :23:42.President Park -- Petro Poroshenko has been quite positive, but others
:23:43. > :23:45.have denounced it. But tonight, the feeling here is that Vladimir Putin
:23:46. > :23:50.is very much in the driving seat in any negotiation, because despite the
:23:51. > :23:55.strong language we heard from President Obama in Gavin's piece,
:23:56. > :24:01.despite a scathing attack on Russian aggression, America does not want to

:24:19. > :24:21.was flown back to the UK last month for treatment in a special isolation
:24:22. > :24:24.unit at the Royal Free Hospital. He thanked staff for
:24:25. > :24:25.the world-class care he received. Here's our health correspondent

:24:37. > :24:44.airlifted out of Sierra Leone. -- William Pooley. He was rushed to a
:24:45. > :24:51.special unit in London. Today, after a remarkable recovery, he described
:24:52. > :24:57.the moment he knew he had Ebola. I was worried I was going to die. I
:24:58. > :25:06.was worried about my family. And I was scared. Many hospitals in west
:25:07. > :25:17.Africa are basic and overstretched. Half of nurses or doctors infected
:25:18. > :25:24.with a bowler there are dying. -- infected with Ebola. In the face of
:25:25. > :25:29.possible death, they are working all day, every day, helping sick people.
:25:30. > :25:33.It is amazing. His treatment in London couldn't be more different.
:25:34. > :25:39.Nursed in a sealed tent, given the experimental drug ZMapp, tests now
:25:40. > :25:46.show he is completely clear of the virus. We know that people who have
:25:47. > :25:51.recovered from the virus are not infectious to other people. We even
:25:52. > :25:57.measure the virus in the blood until it has gone away completely. William
:25:58. > :26:01.Pooley has a complete physical recovery thanks to the world-class
:26:02. > :26:05.care he has had here. But to get over the trauma of what he saw in
:26:06. > :26:11.West Africa, and of being infected himself with the Ebola virus, could
:26:12. > :26:15.take him much longer. His parents, Jackie and Robin, have been at the
:26:16. > :26:24.hospital every day, hoping just taken home. They incinerated my
:26:25. > :26:31.passport, so my mum will be pleased to know that I can't go anywhere.

:26:39. > :26:45.is more committed to nursing than ever, but first he needs to west.
:26:46. > :26:55.Today was not such a bad day, temperatures in the 20s. In terms of
:26:56. > :27:06.the weather, dry and clear this evening. We have a dig area of high
:27:07. > :27:12.pressure, all the way from Moscow towards Cork here. The weather is
:27:13. > :27:18.not going to be doing an awful lot through the course of the night.
:27:19. > :27:27.Some cloud floating across eastern areas. In towns and cities, a little
:27:28. > :27:31.colder than those temperatures. Tomorrow, the afternoon will be
:27:32. > :27:37.brighter than the morning. It will take time for the cloud to break,
:27:38. > :27:41.but there will be sunshine around. There might be a little more thicker
:27:42. > :27:44.cloud and possibly a few spots of rain in the very far north-west of
:27:45. > :27:50.the country. Through the course of Friday, we have a weak weather front
:27:51. > :27:57.across the north of the UK. There could be more persistent rain across
:27:58. > :28:05.Aberdeenshire. To the south of that, fine unsettled weather. For England
:28:06. > :28:10.and Wales, not much change. The weather front in the North will
:28:11. > :28:17.slowly sink southwards, bringing a little more cloud across Yorkshire.
:28:18. > :28:20.On Sunday, the further north you are, the fresher it will be, with
:28:21. > :28:26.temperatures hovering around 15 or 16 Celsius. But again in the south,
:28:27. > :28:27.not much change on the weather front. So at the moment, the weather
:28:28. > :28:38.is pretty steady. A reminder of our main story.
