 CIA director John Brennan says ISIS is likely to try to carry out more attacks outside Syria and Iraq. I certainly will not consider it one of the events. It is clear to me that ISIS has an external agenda that they're determined1 to carry out this sort of attacks. I would anticipate that this is not the only operation that ISIS has in the pipeline2. But John says it's not inevitable3 that the extremists will succeed.

President Obama says the US will intensify4 but not change its strategy against the IS in the wake of the Paris attacks. At the close of the G20 summit in Turkey today, the president said deploying5 ground groups to battle the extremists will be a mistake. French president Francois Holland says he'll meet with US and Russian leaders to discuss uniting efforts to destroy IS. In the meanwhile, NPR's LF reports Holland says he will intensify his country's military operations in Syria. CV says he was unsure about French air strikes in Syria but then came the Paris attacks for which IS is claiming the  responsibility. Now the 22-year-old frenchman says he fully6 supports the campaign. 'So if you want to blow our up, we're going to blow you first, right, to defend ourself.' French president Francois Holland says Friday's attacks were act of war, planned in Syria and launched from Belgium with help from French locals. For NPR news, I'm LF in Paris.
More deadly violence today between Israeli soldiers and Palestinians. From Jerusalem, NPR's EH reports it erupted when troops were sent to destroy the home of a Palestinian accused of killing7 an Israeli. Palestinian officials say two Palestinian men were killed in the clashes with the Israeli troops. The Israeli military says soldiers were fired on and shot back. The troops did fulfill8 their mission of destroying the family home of a Palestinian arrested on charges of killing an Israeli man near Spring in the West Bank last summer. Israeli officials say this practice deters9 future attacks. More than 80 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces in the past two months of violence. Israel says more than half were carrying out or attempting an attack. 12 Israeli Jews have been killed in the attacks by Palestinians and one Israeli Arab during the same period. EH, NPR news, Jerusalem.
In Minneapolis, protesters are demanding city police provide the identity of an officer who shot a black man as they were responding to reports of an insult yesterday. Jamar Clark is reportedly on life-support. Police and witnesses differ on whether the man was handcuffed when he was shot. A state investigation10 in underway but protesters want the FBI to step in. On Wall Street this hour, the Dow was up 196 points. This is NPR.
Marriott International is poised11 to become the world's largest hotel company, announcing today it's acquiring Starwood hotels for more than 12 billion dollars. The move brings Sheraton, Westin and St. Regis under Marriott's leadership. The federal government has reached a settlement with education management corporation, once the second largest for-profit college provider in the country. As NPR's OK reports the company will pay nearly 100 million dollars to settle accusations12 of hyper aggressive recruitment tactics. US attorney general Loretta Lynch and education secretary Arne Duncan are both calling the agreement an historic settlement. EDMC operates under names including Argosy University and the the Art Institutes, currently with about 100,000 students nationwide. The case was originally brought by whistleblowers under the False Claims Act saying the colleges were illegally compensating13 recruiters per student enrolled14. The result was that working parents, veterans and others were pushed into debt for unsuitable programs. Secretary Duncan calls the agreement a quote 'clear warning to other career colleges to steer15 away from fraudulent and predatory practices'. OK, NPR news, New York.
