houston's daughter, hear bobbi kristina in her own words, this hour on cnn. hello, everyone. i'm don lemon. thank you for joining us. we're going to start with this, the sun is rising over afghanistan, the day american soldiers could face the fury. a killing took place in kandahar province, considered the spiritual birthplace of the taliban. the suspect is a u.s. army soldier. he left his forward operating base early sunday morning and traveled to the villages where the murders took place. afghanistan's president says 9 of the victims were children, 3 women and 4 men. nato's international security assistance force says the gunman is an army staff sergeant who actsed alone. he's said to be from joint base lewis mccord in washington state and assigned to a special forces unit. president barack obama spoke with the afghan president today. he offered his condolences and said that this incident doesn't represent the true character of the u.s. military. american troops could be looking at a long day in afghanistan. with more on the situation we're joined by captain john kirby who is on temporary assignment with captain john allen. he joins us by telephone. we have seen how dangerous things are in afghanistan. what is being done to keep our troops safe and to calm things there? >> thanks to having me first. to your question, i would say we're always vigilant in afghanist afghanistan. is it a war zone. general allen has made it clear over these last several weeks as there's been several incidents that regional commanders throughout the country need to take whatever actions are appropriate to protect the troops and the mission. and they're doing that. i will tell you, though, that with respkt to this incident today, this very tragic incident, we haven't taken any specific measures to improve force protection at large across the country. this is very clearly the act of one individual for motives we don't quite understand right now. very, very tragic, but it isn't having a major effect across the country with respect to the mission our troops are doing every day. >> he's an army staff sergeant who worked alone and said to be from washington state. can you give us the name of the suspect? >> no, i'm afraid i can't right now. he is in u.s. custody, and he is being made available to investigators, army criminal investigators, who have been on the scene since the incident occurred. weerp just not prepared right now to release the name. >> how could this happen? how could a soldier walk off a forward operating base in kandahar province in the middle of the night and not be seen and not be noticed that he's gone? >> actually, he was noticed. that's one of the reasons we know it was the act of one individual, because when he did leave the outpost, the guard the gate noticed this was an afghan guard, reported it as he should have up the chain of command. they did the right thing on the outpost. when they got word a soldier had left in the middle of the night alone, they took a proper accounting of everybody at the outpost, a muster what we call it in the military, to make sure they knew who they had and who they didn't have. that's how we know who left and the fact that it was just one person. so they did the right thing. >> captain, is there anything in this soldier's record to suggest that he was unstable in any way, any medical issues that you can discu discuss? >> well, nothing that i can discuss, no, i'm afraid not. that's one of the things the investigatesors are looking at, certainly, as to moetd vegas mo. this was a soldier who had been in the army some time, had deployed before. this the wasn't his first deployment. but with respect to specific motives, we just can't say right now. >> captain john kirby, we appreciate you joining us on cnn. thank you, sir. make sure you stay tuned to cnn. we'll be following this story for you throughout the evening and also tomorrow morning, all this week. we want to go to syria now where vie lebt attacks have claimed the lives of at least 45 women and children today. opposition activists said the coilings happened hours before the special envoy to syria medical with the president. opposition groups says government forces were randomly shelling areas. there was no peaceful deal. president al assad is being asked for a cease-fire and to be delivered aid. >> it's going to be difficult, but we have to have hope. i am optimistic. i'm optimistic for several reasons. fist of all, almost every city wants peace. they want the violence to stop. they want to move on with the alliance. >> both annan and others agree peace cannot be achieved as long as blood shed continues. here in the u.s., more than 200,000 jobs have been added to pay rolls for three straight months. good more the economy but not necessarily good news for republicans who have blamed president obama for not putting people back to work. earlier i spoke with will cain and will grander son and senior writer at espn. i asked them for the marathon race for the republican nomination and how signs of an improving economy are affecting the republican political strategy. >> by almost every indication, car sales, that big plunge we took in 5008/2009, looks to have started to turn up. now, there are many questions about whether that upward turn will continue, what kind of jobs we're adding. you know, there's still a lot of debt out in the economy. there are threats externally like iran. so will this curb continue? that's really hard to predict and no one should get in the game of celebrating or predicting that. but if it does, i'll tell you clearly that will be bad news for gop presidential election hopefuls. >> wil.z., you know timing is everything and the republicans will say, well, obama is just a lucky zie because all of this is happening, as you heard lindsey graham saying this is anemic. if you talk to anyone in the obama administration, they'll say, it's our policy. is it a reflection of policy or is he just the luckiest guy in the world? >> well, if that's the case, he started off as the unlickiest guy 0 in the world. he walked into an abysmal situation. what i find disconvict territory willing -- disconcerting is gop leaders are bashing good news for america. what's more unpatriotic than the onslaught of 200,000 jobs. you're seeing the core of this party and that they're more obsessed by winning the white house than being focused on trying to turn the country around. you celebrate news like 200,000 jobs being created and how to keep it going but not -- >> not in an election year, l.z. >> you're right. right? they're playing the game. both sides are trying to make it look good for their party. what really needs to happen is they need to have good for the country. who does that is who is going to get behind. >> that's tough in an election year. when everything is so concerned about the economy, you won't let that go and say, the economy is improving. the republicans will not it get let that go. >> you know, i've been telling you the future is still uncertain. we'll see. 1980 we had a muddled election where george h.w. bush won iowa and the race muddled along for months. in fact, people talked about bringing former president gerald ford back into the race. as much people talk about bringing jeb bush or mitch daniels into it. the point isn't, mitt romney or whoever could end up being like reagan. the point is, at that point in 1980, reagan wasn't reagan. we don't yet know who these guys are, what passion they'll elicit in november. when you draw parallels, you need to take very, very, very long views. >> it was june before it was decided in 2008. so this is only march. >> absolutely. you know, i will disagree with will a little bit here in that i think part of the reason we're not excited or you don't see mem excited for the four guys is we do know who they are and we don't like them. >> remember to check out cnn tuesday night when our coverage of the alabama and mississippi primaries begins at 7:00 p.m. eastern with erin burnett followed by the results at 8:00 p.m. "ac 360" follows at 10:00 p.m. a lot of coverage this week. up next, an exclusive. the men behind the kony 2012 campaign tells me what they are doing to combat the criticism. ns on track, at&t provided a mobile solution that lets everyone from field workers to accounting, initiate, bill, and track work in real time. you can't live under a dome in minnesota, that's why there's guys like me. [ male announcer ] it's a network of possibilities -- helping you do what you do... even better. ♪ helping you do what you do... even better. we want to protect the house. right. but... home security systems can be really expensive. to save money, we actually just adopted a rescue panther. i think i'm goin-... shhh! we find that we don't need to sleep that much. there's an easier way to save. geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more. imagine if you could always see life [music] in the best light. every time of day. outdoors, or in. transitions® lenses automatically filter just the right amount of light. so you see everything the way it is meant to be seen. maybe even a little better. experience life well lit, ask for transitions adaptive lenses. test. test. test. it's been hard to turn on the tv or log on to facebook or twitter and not hear about joseph kony. he's been blamed for a decades-long campaign of abductions, killings and turning young people stolen from their families into child soldiers and sex slaves. one of the stated goals of kony 2012 is stated to make the world aware of him and his crimes. in the past week the makers of the movie have won the support of celebrities and millions who watched the video online. but it's not without detractors. we'll address some of those criticisms in a most. but first this isn't the first time the filmmakers have tried to get the word out about joseph kony. i asked jason russell and ben keysy what they did different to make kony 2012 catch fire? >> i kept telling my close friends and my wife, my wife has written all the stories, i've said, this the last one. i can't tell another one. you know? i made 11 or 12 movies about ugandan children and central african children crying. and i'm so angry. i'm so angry that 30 days ago when we set out to make this movie, it was burst out in anger. i can't do it anymore. i guess the world doesn't care unless they look like you. you know, because it's their problem, it's their problem, not our problem. so that's how the movie came up. we just wanted to try to, not knowing that it would catch fire, and it did. so of course we're overwhelmed and so excited. >> there are, jason, plenty of injustices, maybe not as great here closer to home. many would wonder why aren't you addressing those. and my question is, you say you're angry. why has this story stuck with you over the years? i mean, what's in this story that hit a nerve with you in particular? i mean, a young man from san diego. >> yeah. it's just really personal because i made the promise to jacob. so it's a personal promise that is on camera, you know. so i am -- i have to give testimony to the fact that i made a promise to jacob that we're going to stop them. and i thought that it would take maybe six months or less once people found out about this atrocity. i didn't think it would take almost a decade of me trying. and let me just say this -- there are thousands and thousands and thousands of people who have tried and are trying still to do it. i just happen to be the messenger. so i've gone -- you know, cnn has been covering, anderson cooper, all of these people, they've been telling the same message. it's just this one has become very human because, you know, there's jacob in it and there's my son in it and there's me in it. so it's just a human story. >> so, ben, this film seems to make kony famous and it has done that. so then what is the next step in this process? >> exactly. exactly. yeah, the film is the beautiful entry point, you know. and it's made and jason makes it so intentionally for a brand new audience, somebody who's maybe never heard of the lra before. the next step and the thing invisible children is working on is how do we connect the awareness to action and mobilization of resources from the international community to support the regional effort, the amazing people on the ground who are working every day both to get innocent women and children out of the lra safely, safe defection, and also deal with the top commanders like joseph kony once and for all. >> and we saw the pictures there that were up on the screen of people who were disfigured. yesterday i spoke with a woman who is a survivor of joseph kony. and there are some of the images right there. so of course kony 2012 has its share of critz icks, including a young woman on our show just yesterday, a survivor of joseph kony and his arm dwri. jason and ben, i want you to stick around and address the criticisms. that will be next. we'll be right back after the break. montgomery and abigail higgins had... ...a tree that bore the most rare and magical fruit. which provided for their every financial need. and then, in one blinding blink of an eye, their tree had given its last. but with their raymond james financial advisor, they had prepared for even the unthinkable. and they danced. see what a raymond james advisor can do for you. so here is the new information, the exclusive that i just said. so either ben or jason you can take it. to address that criticism, you're doing something you hope to have by midnight tonight but you're saying tomorrow. what are you doing? >> yeah. we're just going to release a ten-minute video that kind of clicks through some of the questions where we say, here's all of the answers. here's all of the figures. there's nothing to hide. invisible children has been transparent since 2004 when we started. that's our intention and we want to show this campaign is part of a strategy and model that's comprehensive and that we stand by it. >> all right, jason russell and ben keesey of invisibility children, part of the team that made the film "kony 2012." it's been hard to miss. it is a film of course about ugandan warlord joseph kony. there's been criticism of their film. as you heard, they're planning a video to address that with an exclusive they gave us earlier on cnn. but until then, until that comes out, i talked with them about what credit ibs of kony 2012 had been saying. first i asked them to react to evelyn opoco a survival of kony's brutality. yesterday she shared her thoughts about the film. >> i feel really hurt because i don't know -- it's not easy to be a survivor, but i'm glad i able to escape. maybe the purpose is why i'm sitting here. and it's very painful for me to hear that joseph kony is right now in the united states a celebrity. and i ask myself what is a celebrity, kids are supposed to want to be celebrity because they've been through a lot. >> evelyn is a good friend of ours and she e-mailed us after the show last night and explained that a lot of her comments were related to the fact that joseph kony is not by himself. there's a lot of innocent women and children and abducted fight errs near him. any approach to stop the lra needs to be sensitive to that and do everything possible to protect the nnlt children and women. that's what jason and i have been saying since the beginning also. that is absolutely the mission and point of this campaign. >> okay. go ahead, jason. >> well, the intention is built into the name, to make the invisible visible. so of course we want the children to be visible. that's the point. but because of the zeitgeist of the culture, we need an enemy. we need to know the worst. we didn't make it up. the international criminal court says the first is joseph kony because he's the most perverse in the world. he's just the most perverse. no one makes anyone else -- takes children, makes them kill their parents and eat their parents. >> okay. >> that's what's going on. he's been doing that. >> okay. i want you now to look into some people who live in uganda, their reaction to "kony 2012". >> it turn people problems into their business and it's important we found out people who are -- by choosing people's problems. >> how can they use the situation of war to benefit themselves, to make money out of people's plight? >> okay. so they think that you are becoming famous, making a name off of other people's plight, the merchandising and what have you. what do you say to them? where is the money going? >> well, i think more than making ourself famous we're trying to make joseph kony famous. that's what the film's all about and what it shows. and what's important to remember also is now that joseph kony is no longer in uganda we spend a lot of time in the central african republic and i was there a few months ago and those communities are asking with a lot of passion and energy, please keep talking about joseph kony. >> all right, they said they're not getting rich off products and the project. that's according thome. also, they mentioned evelyn apoko and she e-mailed them before they went on our show earlier. evelyn apoko called me just before this show, i didn't have time to speak with her. she disagrees and said it wasn't such a hunky-dory exchange there. the debate continues, i'll call her back and report back to you what she said about that e-mail traffic. a new report reveals the founding hiv rates among one group of americans higher than first thought and worse than some third world countries. the doctor who conducted the study, next. intuitive, and available to all. distill all that data. make information instinctual, visual. introducing trade architect, td ameritrade's empowering web-based trading platform. take control of your portfolio today. trade commission-free for 60 days, and we'll throw in up to $600 when you open an account. the passat is one of nine volkswagen models named a 2012 iihs top safety pick. not...that... we'd ever brag about it... turn right. come on, nine. turn left. hit the brakes. huh?

[ male announcer ] one pill a day. 24 hours. zero heartburn. a very disturbing new study was conducted in ten cities across the u.s. it's found the hiv rates for black women are actually much higher than previously estimated. five times higher in fact than numbers reported for the cdc. i spoke with study investigator dr. carlos del rio. african-american women are at the top of the list, especially when it comes to new infection rates. i think they're highest, right? >> correct. >> already. so how did you choose the specific cities? and why not big cities like l.a. or chicago or something like that? >> well, it's based on data that cdc has of areas that we know there's a higher portion of hiv infections occurring in women and it's primarily in the cities in the eastern united states where we see a higher rate of women. the epidemic in other cities, for example in san diego is primarily among gay men. these are the cities that were chosen for a variety of reasons but most importantly because they're the most affected areas of the country for women. i think an important topic to remember also is ironically yesterday was also women and girls hiv awareness day. and i think it really highlights the importance that we need to try and talk about prevention. there's a new campaign, take charge, take the test. we need to encourage the african-american women is the first step you have to know your status. fewer infeblgted you have to get into care. we found 32 women during the study enrollment period who were hiv infected, lived in the community with a lot of risk and didn't know it. if they're negative, they have to use prevention. >> doctor, i have a couple of things really quickly. wept don't have a lot of time. you mentioned it was because of lifestyle, because of drug users and what have you. zo does it have anything to do with dating men who are not revealing their statuses and not revealing that they're gay or does that all factor into that? >> it probably does and probably does because there still is a higher rate of infection in thoiz community abdomnd almost of these women said they had unprotected sex with men who they dent didn't know their hiv status. that of course plays into this. >> you said you found the numbers of hiv in these cities were comparable with parts of sub-saharan africa, which has been ravaged by hiv/aids and places with less information than the united states. >> and we're right here in the district of columbia, in d.c. d.c. again is a city of -- if d.c. was a country in africa, it would be one of the most affected countries in the world. i think one message out of the study also is the epidemic in the u.s. is not gone. is it's here, but it's primarily affecting the forgotten population, the poor and the ones we're not really paying much attention to. we really need renewed efforts as the hiv/aids conference is happening in july. >> doctor, that will be big. i have to go, but i have to ask you, does stigma in the african-american community have anything to do with it? does that contribute? >> stigma has always had something to do with the hiv epidemic. i think it's one of the most difficult things to deal with. now to the big stories in the week ahead from the white house to wall street. our correspondents tell you what you need to know. we begin tonight with the president's plans for the week rnchts i'm brianna keilar at the white house where president obama and the first lady welcomed british prime minister and his wife this week. tuesday they head to highway noir an ncaa tournament game and wednesday is the state dinner back here at the white house. then friday president obama heads to chicago and atlanta to fund raise. i'm poppy harlow in new york. following friday's strong jobs report, wall street will focus on a number of key economic numbers coming up this week. we'll get the retail sales data as well as two inflaiks ratings. we'll get everyonings from retailers. in washington, central bankers meet for a one-day meeting on monetary policy. rates are not expected to chance, but wall street will be all ears for what the fed has to say about economic conditions across the country. we'll track that and all the business news of the week for you on cnn money. also, a u.s. soldier is accused of going on a deadly house to house shooting ram wage in afghanistan. we'll check your headlines, next. . checking headlines right now. president brach obama has spoken with afghanistan's president about the alleged massacre of 16 civilians by a u.s. soldier. president obama offered his condolences to the victims' loved ones while insisting the incident doesn't represent the true character of the american military. nato's international security assistance force says the soldier accused of the killing acted alone. nine of the victims were children, three women. the people of japan stopped to observe a moment of silence today for the victims of last year's earthquake and tsunami. among those paying their respects, the japanese emperor. exactly one year ago, a powerful 9 magnitude earthquake unleashed a wall of water that swept away lives and homes and began a nuclear crisis. the last of the inmates involved in governor haley barbo barbour's borden are still free. they had to wait while their ch pardons were challenged. four were convicted murderers and late last week the court upheld the governor's pardons. the world's first nuclear aircraft carrier, well, it set out for a final deployment today, the "uss enterprise" left its home port of norfolk, village village, just after noon eastern.

"sundaynightmysteries," welcome to the world of mysteries, sunday night mysteries, jacqui jeras with great ones tonight. so next month will be the anniversary ever the sinking of the titanic. just in time, a new theory brinks a disaster on the moon. explain that. >> not what i think. but once i get through this whole process you're going to say, oh, that makes a little bit of sense. >> gravitational pull? >> see, you're on to something there. all right, take a look at this. it has to do with an ultra rare alignment twenl the earth, moon and sun and it only happens so often. when they're aligned so perfectly, yes, we do get that extra gravitational pull. we've heard of the supermoon before, right? there was a supermoon january of 1912, a few months before the titanic sank. but a series of events occurred after that time which may have set things into motion to ultimately cause the demise of the titanic. so basically the supermoon took place and that large gravitational pull caused increase in tides so the waves go up and down and are stronger than normal and that agitates the sea. when the strong waves break up against things like, say, an ice shelf, that would cause that to potentially break off more. so they knew there were unusually large number of icebergs floating during that spring and they didn't know why. and that could also result in unleashing old icebergs that kind of got stuck. so ultimately that could have brought the iceberg toward the titanic. >> interesting. >> so blame the moon. >> certainly a beautiful ship to look at. >> yes. so much interest in it still, you know? >> the next mystery involves another ship that was sunk, back during the civil war. >> right. but the mystery here is, who was on board. so take a look at these images. believe it or not, the u.s. navy and noaa wants to know if perhaps these two men could be your relative or your ancestor. so these remains were found in the turret of the "uss monitor" back in 2000 and just those two remains were the only found. you can see some under water pictures of it. so they brought the remains up. they created clay modeling and used computer imaging to create those images that you saw there. and they're doing this to kind of pay tribute to these guys, see if maybe anybody knows who they were. the "uss monitor," you might be saying, that rings a bell. it's most known for the civil war, like you said. it was a big battle between confederate troops in virginia in 1862, the first iron-armored ship battle. so it was kind of the end of the wooden ships, signal of that. >> interesting. i have a suntd night mystery for you. daylight savings time, i'm so exhausted. thinking i wient t wasnasn't go up. >> were you late for anything this morning? >> the gym. i didn't go. thank you, jacqui. sunday night mysteries. nato's international security assistance force says a u.s. soldier accused of killing 16 afghan civilians acted alone, including 9 children, 3 women and 4 men. the gun man allegedly left his base and carried out the mass kerr in two villages. in syria, violent attacks killed at least 45 women and children today. they were all stabbed to death they say and then burned. that happened hours after u.s. special envoy to syria annan met with the president. annan is proposing a cease-fire and release of the violence. he's asking that relief agencies be allowed to deliver aid. rick santorum and neuwelt gingrich battle it out in the deep south. both spent the day crisscrossing mississippi ahead of tuesday's primary there and in alabama. santorum rejected talk that mitt romney's lead in the delegate count was virtually insurmountable. despite his calls to step aside, gingrich says he is staying in. the last of the inmates involved in governor haley barbour's controversial pardons are all free now. they had to wait while the mississippi attorney general challenged the pardons. he claims barbour violated the constitution when deciding to pardon more than 200 prisoners before leaving office, four of them convicted murderers. late last week, the pardons were upheld by the court. higher gas prices are starting to feel like one of life's certainties. the average price of a gallon jumped another 12 cents just over the past two weeks. from 3.69 for a gallon of unleaded to a nationwide average of 3.81. analyst troeby lundberg says the retail price of crude oil is the biggest factor pushing prices higher. the world's first nuclear aircraft carrier set out for its final deployment, the "uss enterprise "left just after noon. it's heading to the middle east. the "enterprise" was the carrier used in the movie "top gun," just a bit of pop culture there. another nice ship. i'm don lemon at cnn headquarters in atlanta. thank you for joining us this weekend. see you back here next week. have a great night and great week.
