No ceasefire in the Middle East. Israel says its military operation in Gaza will continue until Palestinian militants release an Israeli soldier kidnapped two weeks ago. The Hamas-led Palestinian government says it wants to resolve the standoff diplomatically.

More provocative comments from Iran's president today. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called Israel, quote, "the basic and fundamental problem of the Muslim world." And he urged Muslims to mobilize all their capabilities to deal with the issue.

And now, a deadly battle between U.S. soldiers and Iraqi insurgents. Three American soldiers were killed today while fighting in Iraq's Anbar province. In Baghdad, at least four civilians were killed in insurgent attacks. Three died when mortar rounds landed in a residential neighborhood. Meantime, the Iraqi government is pushing ahead with its national reconciliation plan by releasing 368 prisoners today. Nearly 3,000 released last month. Officials say none staged attacks on soldiers or civilians.

Two U.S. senators are getting briefed on that reconciliation effort from Iraq's prime minister. Senators Joseph Biden and Jack Reed say the prime minister promised to reach out to Sunni Arabs and crack down on Shiite militias.

Unmasked. An American who is also a member of al Qaeda, Adam Gadahn hid his face on his first terrorist tape. Now, for the first time, he reveals himself, and once again threatens the U.S. So how does someone raised in rural California end up in the inner circle of the world's most notorious terrorist networks? CNN's Anderson Cooper finds out in this "AC 360" report.

ANDERSON COOPER, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Adam Gadahn has come a long way from his home in California.

ADAM GADAHN, AMERICAN AL QAEDA: And why should we target their military only?

COOPER: That's him playing a starring role in the latest al Qaeda video.

GADAHN: ... because they're the ones who started this dirty war. COOPER: U.S. officials say this tape shows Gadahn playing a central role in al Qaeda's inner circle, valued by its leaders for putting an American face on al Qaeda, a valuable propaganda tool, attacking his own country in its own language.

GADAHN: No sane Muslim should shed tears…
