LEADERS HAVE A REASON TO
CELEBRATE.

IN PLAYING INTO THIS ELECTION.
ALL OF THIS AND MORE TONIGHT ON
"NEWSWATCH." GOOD EVENING
EVERYONE I AM GEORGE THOMAS.
WHILE THE TERRORIST ATTACK ON
THE AMERICAN CONSULATE WAS THE
DEADLIEST BLOW IN DECADES.
OBAMA ADMINISTRATION HAS BECOME
A HOT TOPIC ON THE CAMPAIGN
TRAIL.
U.S. SENATOR CALL IT IS REACTION
OF THE WHITE HOUSE BAZAAR.
JENNIFER WISHON EXPLAINS.
TERRORIST ATTACKS THAT LEFT
FOUR AMERICANS DEAD HAS LED TO
FINGER POINTING.
THEIR RESPONSE HAS BEEN
BAZAAR FROM DAY ONE.
TENNESSEE SENATOR BOB CORKER IS
BACK AFTER MEETING WITH
INTELLIGENCE OFFICIALS ON THE
GROUND,HE TELLS CBN NEWS, THERE
IS NO DOUBT THE OBAMA
ADMINISTRATION CONTINUED TO
BLAME IT ON A RIOT POSTED ONLINE
ABOUT THE MUSLIM PROPHET,
MOHAMMED.
THERE WERE NO PROTESTS, NEVER
WERE PROTESTS.
THEN ABOUT 45 MINUTES TO 50
MINUTES LATER, THE MORTERS
STARTED COMING IN AND ALL BROKE
LOOSE, OBVIOUSLY, WE LOST FOUR
AMERICAN LIVES.
OBAMA ADMINISTRATION SAYS
THEY HAVE BEEN STRAIGHTFORWARD
AND DENIES KNOWING ABOUT REQUEST
FOR MORE SECURITY AT THE
CONSULATE.
WE DIDN'T KNOW THEY WANTED
MORE SECURITY.
PRESIDENT'S SECRETARY OF
STATE BACKED UP ON THE EVE ON
THE SECOND PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE.
PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT
WOULDN'T BE KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT
SECURITY OFFICIALS MADE BY
INTELLIGENCE OFFICIALS.
THEY WILL PUSH THE SENATE TO
SECURE HOW THE U.S. -- A PLACE
HE CALL AS FRONTIER, JENNIFER
WISHON, CBN NEWS, WASHINGTON.
NOW WE HAVE INFORMATION
WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THE ATTACK,
CIA IN LIBYA TOLD WASHINGTON IT
HAD EVIDENCE THAT THE ATTACK WAS
CARRIED OUT BY TERRORIST AND NOT
A MOB BY AN ANIT-ISLAMIC MOVIE.
CONGRESS IS WORKING WITH THE
CIA TO FIND OUT WHO KNEW WHAT
AND WHEN.
FROM BEIRUT, GARY LANE REPORTS,
THE VIOLENCE IS ESCALATING INTO
A REGIONAL WAR.
TURKEY INTERCEPTS AN ARMENIAN
PLANE SAYING IT WAS CARRYING
RUSSIAN WEAPONS BOUND FOR SYRIA.
FIGHTING BETWEEN REBELS AND
SYRIAN GOVERNMENT SPILLS OVER
THE BORDER INTO TURKEY.
TURKEY IS A MEMBER NATO AND
ESCALATING EFFORTS OPPOSE THE
REGIME.
TURKEY HAS WARNED THEY COULD
STORM DAMASCUSS IN HOURS.
IT IS A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY
FOR TURKEY TO PLAY A ROLE.
IT OPENS A DOOR FOR TURKEY TO
PLAY A HERO WITH THE MAJORITY.
THAT WILL BE FIGHTING FOR THE
FUTURE OF SYRIA.
AND PERHAPS ADVANCING EFFORTS
THROUGHOUT THE MIDDLE EAST.
TURKEY ISN'T THE ONLY
NEIGHBORING COUNTRY, SYRIA HAS
ATTACKED REBEL POSITIONS ACROSS
THE BORDER IN JORDAN AND
LEBANON.
IT MAY SPILL OVER THE BORDER
INTO LEBANON, AND ONCE AGAIN
THIS COUNTRY WOULD BE EMBROILED
IN THE CIVIL WAR.
HEZBOLLAH MOVEMENT CONTROLS
THE LEBANESE GOVERNMENT.
MILITIA IS WELL ARMED.
MOST LEBANESE SUNNI MUSLIMS
OPPOSE HEZBOLLAH.
MIDDLE EAST ANALYST WALLID FAR
RIS.
THE QUESTION IS WHO IS GOING
TO BE PROTECTING THEM, LEBANESE
ARMY. FARRIS SAYS THE
LEBANESE ARMEY IS UNLIKELY TO
PROTECT BECAUSE IT IS UNDER THE
INFLUENCE.
MANY LEBANESE SUNNIS WOULD LIKE
TO LEVEL THE SCORE AND GROUPS
INVOLVED IN THE ADMINISTRATION
AND STRONG TACTICS.
IT IS A LESSON NOT FORGOTTEN BY
ANYONE.
TWO REGIONAL POWERS PACKING
SIDES TURKEY AND IRAN HAVE
EXPRESSED INITIAL SUPPORT FOR A
CEASE FIRE.
IT IS UNCLEAR WHETHER BOTH THE
REGIME AND THE REBELS FIGHTING
AGAINST HIM WOULD AGREE AND
HONOR A TRUCE.
GARY LANE CBN CAB NEWS, BEIRUT.
YOU HAVE A HEART FOR COVERING
CHRISTIANS CAUGHT IN THE CROSS
FIRE IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS IF THE
REGION CONTINUES TO DESTABILIZE?
NOT GOOD.
AS THIS WAR IN SYRIA IS
PROLONGED, THEY WILL BE SEEN BY
THE SUNNI MAJORITY AS ALIGNING
THEMSELVES WITH ASSAD AND
REGIME, THE AEILLO WHITE
MINORITY IN SYRIA.
THEY ARE TORN BETWEEN DO WE
SUPPORT THE AEILLO WHITE AND
BASHAR ASSAD REGIME SO MANY MADE
UP OF AL-QAEDA TYPES.
CHRISTIANS ARE CAUGHT IN
BETWEEN.
THEY SIDE WITH ASSAD AND FREE
SYRIAN ARMY COMES AFTER THIS
THEM.
WHAT DO THEY DO?
YOU JUST GOT BACK FROM
BEIRUT.
FIRST TIME IN FOUR YEARS
LEBANON'S CHIEF INTELLIGENCE
OFFICER DEAD.
HE WAS CLOSE TO RAFIK, THE
PRIME MINISTER THAT WAS
ASSASSINATED.
CAME UP WITH MEMBERS OF
HEZBOLLAH BEING INVOLVED.
A VOCAL CRITIC OF THE SYRIAN
REGIME.
HE HAS BEEN ROUNDING UP THE
PEOPLE IN LEBANON.
FOR THAT HE PAID WITH HIS LIFE.
IT HAPPENED IN A NEIGHBORHOOD IN
BEIRUT ASROFIA AT STARBUCKS
RIGHT THERE.
WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR
ISRAEL?
WE ARE SEEING HOW HEZBOLLAH
AND IRAN ARE TRYING TO DRAW THEM
INTO CONFLICT.
JUST LAST WEEK THERE WAS A DRONE
SHOT DOWN BY SYRIA.
IT WAS AN IRANIAN DRONE.
THEY ARE TRYING TO DRAW ISRAEL
IN ON THIS.
WHAT DO YOU EXPECT TO HEAR
FROM THE PRESIDENT AND GOVERNOR
ROMNEY THEY NEED TO GIVE A
VISION FOR THE FUTURE.
WHAT IS YOUR STRATEGY?
HOW DOES IT DIFFER, MR. ROMNEY
FROM THE PRESIDENT.
MR. PRESIDENT, WHAT ARE YOU
GOING TO DO DIFFERENTLY?
TERRIFIC.
GLAD YOU ARE BACK SAFELY.
GARY LANE, THANK YOU FOR YOUR
INSIGHTS.
PAKISTANI TEENAGER SHOT IN THE
HEAD BY THE TALIBAN IS STANDING
FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE
ATTACK.
MALALA YOUSAFZAI IS NOT OUT OF
THE WOODS YET BUT MAKING SOLID
PROGRESS.
SHE WAS STANDING WITH HELP
FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS MORNING.
COMMUNICATING FREELY.
SHE IS WRITING.
THAT IS GOOD NEWS.
THE 15 YEAR OLD IS ABLE TO
COMMUNICATE THROUGH WRITING.
DOCTORS SAY THE BIGGEST CONCERN
IS INFECTION.
GIRL WAS SHOT FOR ADVOCATING FOR
FEMALE EDUCATION AND SPEAKING
OUT AGAINST THE TALIBAN.
COURTROOM VICTORY FOR ONE TEXAS
HIGH SCHOOL.
CHEER LEADERS WANT TO DISPLAY
BIBLE VERSES ON BANNERS.
THE POLICY AGAINST THE BANNERS
VIOLATES FREE SPEECH RIGHTS.
HIGH SCHOOL CHEER LEADERS IN
TEXAS SCORE A VICTORY IN THEIR
FIGHT FOR FREEDOM OF SPEECH.
A STATE ISSUE JUDGE ISSUED AN
INJUNCTION ALLOWING THEM TO KEEP
DISPLAYING THE BIBLE VERSES.
REBECCA RICHARDSON IS ONE OF THE
SCHOOL'S 18 CHEER LEADERS.
SHE SAYS IT IS WORTH GOING TO
COURT.
I FEEL GOOD.
A HUGE WEIGHT HAS BEEN LIFTED
OFF MY SHOULDERS.
SCHOOL OFFICIALS THE GIRL
COULDN'T DISPLAY AFTER AN
ATHEIST GROUP COMPLAINED.
IT IS INDIVIDUAL FREE SPEECH
RIGHTS OF INDIVIDUAL CHEER
LEADERS RATHER THAN A SPONSORED
SCHOOL EVENT.
IF YOU ARE A STUDENT, YOU ARE
AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.
WE HAVE AN EXAMPLE OF
STUDENT-LED FREE SPEECH.
IT IS COMPLETELY PROTECTED BY
THE CONSTITUTION.
WE THINK IT IS STRONG
SUPPORT.
THE GOVERNOR WEIGHED IN AND
THOUGHT THIS WAS SOMETHING THAT
SHOULD BE ALLOWED IN THE SCHOOL
DISTRICTS IN TEXAS.
ALL THINGS WHICH ARE
IMPOSSIBLE WITH MEN ARE POSSIBLE
WITH GOD.
MARK MARTIN, CBN NEWS.
REVEREND BILLY GRAHAM IS

COMING UP, MAKING HISTORY IN THE
MUSLIM WORLD.
HOW ONE CHRISTIAN IS CLIMBING
THE POLITICAL LADDER.
THE RADICAL ISLAMIST GROUP
BOKO HARAM MAYBE THE SOURCE OF
VIOLENCE AGAINST CHINESE WORKERS
IN NIGERIA.
GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS SAY A MAN
KILLED A CHINESE CONSTRUCTION
WORKER IN THE NORTHEAST PART OF
THE COUNTRY.
ONLY TWO WEEKS AFTER ANOTHER
CHINESE MAN WAS MURDERED NEARBY.
THE GROUP HAS YET TO CLAIM
RESPONSIBILITY.
ONE MAN MAKING HISTORY IN THE
WORLD'S LARGEST COUNTRY.
A POWERFUL POSITION IN
INDONESIA.
LUCILLE TALUSAN HAS THE STORY.
REPORTER: CBN NEWS FIRST TOLD
YOU ABOUT BASUKI PURNAMA BID FOR
VICE GOVERNOR OF JAKARTA BACK IN
SEPTEMBER DESPITE OPPOSITION FOR
MUSLIM GROUP.
HE WON THAT ELECTION BECOMING
THE FIRST CHRISTIAN TO WIN SUCH
A HIGH POST IN THE CAPITOL CITY.
THIS WEEK HE WAS SWORN IN, EVEN
THOUGH SOME MUSLIMS TRIED TO
PREVENT IT.
BASUKI PURNAMA CEREMONY WAS
DELAYED BY HARD LINE RS WHO
DEMONSTRATED.
HE WILL HOLD POSITIONS IN EIGHT
ISLAMIC BODIES IN THE CAPITOL.
THEY BELIEVE HE IS NOT CAPABLE
OF LEADING THEM BECAUSE HE IS
CHRISTIAN.
RELIGION IS OUR OWN PRIVATE
MATTER.
I RESPECT THE IDENTITY OF EVERY
RELIGION ETHNICITY AND GROUP.
BASUKI PURNAMA, WHO IS ALSO
ETHNIC CHINESE IS KNOWN FOR
CLEAN AND HONEST LEADERSHIP.
REFORMATION I'LL BE DOING IS
ENFORCING TRANSPARENT SI AND
SERVANT HOOD IN WHAT WE ARE
DOING AS PUBLIC OFFICIALS.
PURNAMA IS BORN AGAIN.
I BELIEVE THIS IS GOD'S DESTINY
FOR HIM.
I AM CONFIDENT NOW MY CHILDREN
WILL HAVE A GOOD FUTURE UNDER
HIS LEADERSHIP.
HE CAN EVEN BE THE NEXT
PRESIDENT OF INDONESIA THIS IS
A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR A
CHRISTIAN LIKE HIM TO BRING
REFORM TO THE NATION.
LUCILLE TALUSAN, CBN NEWS,
JAKARTA.
UP NEXT, SHOW DOWN IN THE
LONE STAR STATE.
SEE HOW DEMOCRATS AND
REPUBLICANS ARE PULLING OUT THE
BIG GUNS IF THE LATINO VOTE.
WELCOME BACK TO THE
BROADCAST, TEXAS HAS A LOT OF
VOTERS TO WIN OVER.
NOW MANY POLITICIANS ARE
FOCUSSING ON ONE GROUP,
HISPANICS, PART OF A DEMOGRAPHIC
THAT COULD HAVE AN IMPACT ON
POLITICIANS.
HEATHER SELLS HAS TONIGHT'S
FOCUS REPORT.
FACE OF TEXAS THIS YEAR AT
THE NATIONAL CONVENTIONS LATINO.
FOR THE REPUBLICANS, SENATE
CANDIDATE TED CRUISE AND
DEMOCRATS MAYOR JULIO CASTRO OF
SAN ANTONIO.
[ FOREIGN SPEAKING ].
THE NATION'S FIRST CONGRESSIONAL
DEBATE IN SPANISH.
LOCATION, SAN ANTONIO'S 23RD
DISTRICT.
A BATTLEGROUND FOR BOTH PARTIES.
NEW THIS IS ONE OF THE DISTRICT
THAT IS WILL MAKE OR BREAK EACH
PARTY. TEXAS WILL SOON BE A
DEMOGRAPHIC.
HISPANICS MAKE UP 38 PERCENT
RIGHT BEHIND WHITES AT 45
PERCENT.
BY 2040, LATINOS WILL POISED
TO BE THE MAJORITY FOR BOTH
POLITICAL PARTIES A NO FAIL
STRATEGY TO WIN OVER THIS
EMERGING FORCE.
IT IS A MATTER OF
PARTICIPATING MORE THAN EVER.
EMMANUEL MA DENA IS THE
CHAIRMAN OF THE POLITICAL PARTY
IN BEAR COUNTY.
HE VIEWS LATINOS AS A RELIABLE
BASE.
PROBLEM NO. 1, MANY HISPANICS
CAN'T CAST A BALLOT.
POLITICAL ANALYST LIKE MARK
LOPEZ SAYS THEIR POLITICAL POWER
WON'T BE REALIZED FOR DECADES.
ONLY 42 PERCENT OF HISPANICS
ARE 18 YEARS OR OLDER AND ALSO A
U.S. CITIZEN.
MANY REGISTERED HISPANIC
VOTERS SIMPLY DON'T TURN OUT TO
VOTE.
IN TEXAS, THE RACE IS ON TO WIN
OVER THIS GROUP BECAUSE OF
GROWING NUMBERS AND WHAT THE
STATE CONTROLS.
FOR NEW U.S. HOUSE SEATS FOR A
TOTAL OF 36 AND FOUR NEW
ELECTORAL VOTES FOR A TOTAL OF
38.
THAT GIVES THE LOAN START STATE
A LARGE SAY IN NATIONAL POLITIC
AND TEXAS LATINOS SERIOUS
LEVERAGE.
IN SAN ANTONIO, THE FUTURE IS
ALREADY HERE.
LATINOS MAKE UP 63 PERCENT OF
THE POPULATION AND POLITICAL
POWER IS EVIDENT ON WHAT SEEMS
LIKE EVERY CAMPAIGN SIGN AROUND
TOWN.
SAN ANTONIO HAS A PROUD
DEMOCRATIC PARTY HERITAGE
STARTING WITH FIRST HISPANIC --
REPUBLICANS HAVE BEGUN A
STRATEGY THE STATE GOP MAY WANT
TO EMBRACE. THE CITY OF ST.
ANTHONY ARE CONSERVATIVE.
DAVID ROSA IS THE DAVID AND
GOLIATH.
MANY HISPANICS ARE NATURAL
CONSERVATIVES AND BELIEVES THE
GOP CAN MAKE ADVANCED.
DO I BELIEVE THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY WILL GROW?
YES.
HERE WE ARE.
WE ARE CALLING OURSELVES THE
SUPER 8.
THEY ARE EIGHT HISPANIC
REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES IN BEAR
COUNTY.
THEY ARE HISTORIC.
COUNTY HAS NEVER HAD MORE THAN
TWO HISPANIC REPUBLICANS ON THE
BALLOT.
BEST WAY IN BEAR COUNTY IS TO
DO WHAT WE ARE DOING AND SEARCH
OUT, IDENTIFY CANDIDATES LIKE
MYSELF WILLING TO RESTORE THE
FOCUS ON THE REPUBLICAN VALUES
WHILE AT THE SAME TIME BEING
OPEN ABOUT OUR HERITAGE.
THESE CANDIDATES ARGUE THAT
MANY ARE ALIGNED WITH THE GOP.
WHEN GOD IS BOOED AND TALK
ABOUT ABORTION ON DEMAND, THOSE
ARE HISPANIC VALUES, THEY ARE
NOT.
WILL HISPANICS BEGIN TO SHED
THEIR POLITICAL TRADITIONS?
WILL THE STATE GOP COMMIT TO
COURTING THIS UP AND COMING
GROUP?
DEMOCRATS HAVE THEIR DOUBTS.
HALF THEIR LEADERSHIP SAYS
THEY ARE REACHING OUT TO
HISPANIC COMMUNITY, THE OTHER
HALF THE TEA PARTY MOVEMENT HALF
IS TRYING TO CLOSE DOORS.
TEXAS GOP LEADERSHIP IS
BEGINNING TO TALK THE TALK.
IF DAVID ROSA'S CAMPAIGN IS ANY
INDICATION, MANY GRASS ROOTS
TEXAS REPUBLICANS ARE WILLING TO
REACH A CONSTITUENCY BOTH SIDES
REALIZE IS THE MAKE IT BREAK IT
VOTING BLOCK OF THE FUTURE.
REPORTING IN SAN ANTONIO,
HEATHER SELLS, CBN NEWS.
THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL IS OFTEN A
VICIOUS PLACE, THURSDAY NIGHT
PRESIDENT OBAMA AND GOVERNOR
ROMNEY PUT POLITICS ASIDE FOR
THE SAKE OF COMEDY AND CHARITY.
ONLY JOKES WERE ALLOWED.
AS SOME OF YOU MAY HAVE
NOTICED A LOT MORE ENERGY IN THE
SECOND DEBATE, I WAS WELL RESTED
AFTER THE NICE LONG NAP DURING
THE FIRST DEBATE.
PRESIDENT OBAMA AND I HAVE
SOMEONE IN OUR CORNER WE CAN
LEAN ON, I HAVE MY BEAUTIFUL
WIFE,ANN, HE HAS BILL CLINTON.
