Transcripts For CNNW Wolf 20150311

Consensus that daesh has to be stopped. Our nation is strongest, always has been when we act together. Theres a great tradition in this country of Foreign Policy having a special place that politics ends at the waters edge and that it will act on behalf of our nation without regard to party ideology. We simply cannot allow this collection of murderers and thugs to achieve in their group their ambition. Lets bring in our pentagon correspondent, barbara starr. Barbara, what are the main concerns that lawmakers have right now about the president s authorization for the use of military force, that request, the aumf as its called . Reporter what the senators are talking about is one of their biggest concerns is could a new authorization open the door to the administration being able to send a large number of Ground Combat forces into iraq. What were talking about are those traditional military units, large battalions brigades, formations truly in combat. A lot of concerns if they vote for this, this is where it could all lead. Secretary of state john kerry says absolutely not and he offers some very interesting reasoning about why the u. S. Will not send Ground Troops into the region. Have a listen to what he had to say. The implications of that would be actually to aid in the recruitment, to create a bigger problem than we face today. And in answer to the question asked earlier, why do these guys like taking us on because if its just us, thats how they grow. And thats what they want. And were not getting suckered into that. Thats why we built this coalition and why we worked so hard to get these five arab countries engaged in the kinetic activities with us precisely to deny them that narrative. Reporter what theyre talking about is that this will be different, different, they say, than the previous u. S. Led wars in iraq and afghanistan. This will be a Coalition Effort and will continue to be a Coalition Effort because if it did become solely a u. S. Ground effort that would give isis that edge to recruit even more fighters because the view would be that its the u. S. Again, invading, if you will, that part of the world. But isis it has to be said doing pretty good on recruiting still. Wolf . As you know barbara, the president has often said in the past he already has the authority to act against isis doesnt even need any new legislation, any new authorization. The u. S. Coalition has been carrying out air strikes for months. So why is the president now seeking a threeyear new authorization bill . Reporter yeah, its a great question. Technically, the white house says they dont really need it. But things have moved on from the old authorizations that were mainly focused on al qaeda. Now 14 years or so later, focused on isis. And the sense of it is that this would send a message, if you will a signal to the Coalition Partners and even to u. S. Troops that the administration very serious about it wants to dot all the is, cross of the ts, to have everything legally set out. But, again, this authorization vague in some areas. A lot of concern by members of congress that it is not as precise as they would like it to be. But the Administration Still wanting to give itself some leeway. Barbara starr thanks very much. The secretary of state john kerrys call for unity against isis comes at a time when theres a serious partisan divide over irans the Nuclear Talks with iran. In a letter to irans leaders, 47 u. S. Senate republicans warned that any deal reached now might not exist past the current presidency. During todays hearing, the secretary of state was asked how he reacted to this letter. My reaction to the letter was utter disbelief. During my 29 years here in the senate i never heard of nor even heard of it being proposed anything comparable to this. If i had, i guarantee you no matter what the issue and no matter who was president , i would have certainly rejected it. I think no one is questioning anybodys right to dissent. Any senator can go to the floor any day and raise any of the questions that were raised in that. But the right to the leaders in the middle of a negotiation, particularly the leaders that they have criticized other people for even engaging with or writing to to write them and suggest that theyre going to give a constitutional lesson which by the way was absolutely incorrect, is quite stunning. Lets talk about this with one republican senator, one of seven who did not sign that letter, Susan Collins of maine is joining us. Shes a key member of the Senate Intelligence committee. Give me your reaction to what we just heard from your former senate colleague, john kerry. I think that the letter did represent the wrong approach. Our job in the senate is to give advice to the president , to the negotiators, to secretary kerry. I dont think its the right approach nor our job to write to the iranians and tell them how our constitutional system works. So i think the letter was a mistake, even though i, too, believe that congress that the Senate Rather should be involved in reviewing the ultimate agreement if there is one between our government and the iranian government. If the letter would have been addressed, lets say, to the president of the United States or addressed to the american people, would you have signed that letter . If the letter had been to the president or secretary kerry and had outlined what we think should be the goals of the agreement and the fact that the agreement should come before the senate for consideration, i would have signed such a letter. But thats not what this letter was. Thats absolutely correct. What do you want the role of the senate to be because the white house is making it clear whatever deal there is and theres no deal yet. There might not etch be a deal. But its say there is a deal. The white house says this wont be a treaty which would neverly have to go to the u. S. Senate. They say the only role the senate would have and the house of representatives presumably would be to ease sanctions imposed by congress against iran as part of this deal because only congress can ease or reverse some of those sanctions. Its certainly true that the sanctions are part of the laws. So the president has some authority to ease the sanctions. But if hes going to lift them substantially, he has to come to congress. But its also important that he bring the agreement to the senate and have us look at it review it and give our advice and consent or our disagreement to it. The president is making a real mistake when he does not communicate with the senate. Thats part of whats wrong here in washington. And he should want the senate to review an agreement that has such important ramifications for the security of our country, the middle east israel. And its an extremely important agreement, provided one is reached by the end of this month. I dont understand the administrations resistance to bringing the agreement to the senate. And thats why theres bipartisan support for a bill introduced by senators corker and menendez to require the administration to bring us the agreement and to let us express our view on it. Would there be a formal roll call vote on this agreement . Is that because reviewing you can obviously review it. Everybody will read it. It will be made public. You can review it. The question is will it require some sort of vote in the United States senate in order to go into effect . It should, in my judgment. I view this as being very similar to a treaty where we pass a resolution of ratification that either tells the president that he can go ahead and ratify the agreement or he shouldnt ratify the agreement that takes a twothirds vote of the senate. And i would think the president would want to have the senate work its will on this agreement. And if its a good agreement, then we would be happy to endorse it. If it actually leads to the iranians dismantling their Nuclear Capability i think all of us would happily be for it. But its an Important Role for the senate to play. And in contrast to the letter which i thought was an inappropriate role it is appropriate for every senator to cast a vote on whether or not the president should proceed with this agreement with the iranians. Well see if they heed your advice, senator. I know you have a lot of members who would like the president to accept that advice. As of now, theyre making it clear they do not regard any agreement, if it emerges, as a treaty which would indeed need to go to a vote at some point for a resolution of ratification in the u. S. Senate. Senator, thanks very much for joining us Susan Collins of maine. Always good to have you here on cnn. Thank you, wolf. Coming u, isis making gains in iraq and now launching a new attack in syria. Well show you where and whats being done to hold them back. And Hillary Clintons News Conference failing to end the controversy over the use of those private emails. Now those who work with her may have to answer some questions as well. Ugh. Heartburn. Did someone say burn . Try alka seltzer reliefchews. They work just as fast and are proven to taste better than tums smoothies assorted fruit. Mmm. Amazing. Yeah, i get that a lot. Alka seltzer heartburn reliefchews. Enjoy the relief. Hey mom, you want to live by the lake, right . Yeah. Theres here. Did you just share a listing with me . Look at this one. Its got a great view of the lake. Its really nice mom. Your dad wouldve loved this place. Youre not just looking for a house. Youre looking for a place for your life to happen. Zillow iraqi forces are pressing ahead with their offensive to retake the city of tikrit from isis. The joint military forces say theyre now in control of the citys military hospital. Troops have been steadily advancing on tikrit the birthplace of saddam hussein. It fell to isis last june. Iraqi forces say isis fighters are retreating toward the center of the city. But today isis launched a new military offensive on another iraqi city ramadi. The city is being attacked, quote, from all directions. Lets go to our Senior International correspondent ben wedeman who joins us now from baghdad. Ben, how significant is it that these iraqi forces together with their Shiite Militia allies Iranian Revolutionary guard advisers theyve retaken at least that hospital in tikrit . Reporter yeah not just the hospital wolf but also a neighborhood to the north and theyve taken another hospital on the southern edge of the city previously known as saddam hospital. So they do seem to be gaining ground. And we understand that really the only isis fighters who are left are foreign fighters who are ready to die in the battle. Many of the iraqi fighters perhaps not quite as committed to the cause of isis have left the city. They were the ones that we were reporting earlier who had received instructions to shave off their beards cut their hair put on civilian clothing and sneak out with fleeing civilians. But as they make process in tikrit the situation in ramadi is somewhat worrying. The attack is now over but the city is on extremely high alert after this attack which came from a variety of directions as many as 17 car bombs and truck bombs at security checkpoints, at government facilities. We understand that four iraqi policemen were killed. As many as 100 have been wounded in this attack as well as more than 30 civilians. Now, in addition to that theres been a car bomb in the hariya neighborhood of northeast baghdad where 11 people were killed and many more wounded. So isis may be on the run in some areas but it hasnt certainly retreated from others. Wolf . Were also hearing that theres some new battles going on. Isis making a major offensive along the syrian turkish border. What do we know about that . Reporter thats in northeastern syria in a town which is right on the turkish syrian border. According to the reports were hearing, its been a fairly concerted attack there as well by isis and looks like they may be trying to repeat what they tried but failed in the town of kobani a kurdish town not far from there on the syrian turkish border. The question is in kobani it was really due to the Coalition Air strikes that eventually isis was defeated in that area. So it may be another repeat of that. It may, however, be that isis is desperate for some sort of battlefield victory. Its been a while since theyve had any, really since before kobani. And this may be a way to lash out as theyre losing territory in parts of syria, in the north in iraq, in the kurdish areas as well as in tikrit. Wolf . Ben wedeman in baghdad for us watching whats going on, ben, thank you very much. Coming up a u. S. Military Training Mission goes horribly wrong off the coast of northwest florida. Seven u. S.

Military Officials Say human remains have washed ashore near Eglin Air Force base. Victor blackwell is joining us live from hammond, louisiana, thats where the helicopter was based. Victor i know you have some new information on the investigation. What are you learning . Reporter new information from both the officials at camp lejeune in North Carolina and from the officials there at Eglin Air Force base. The only glimmer of good news in this entire story, that the weather is starting to clear there in the search area. The fog had been such a major problem hampering the coast guard efforts. The effort to find the victims of this nowdetermined still missing, some officials believe theyre all presumed dead there. We also know that from official there is in camp lejeune that the relatives of the marines who were on board that blackhawk that went down they are in the process now of being notified and a command level official is en route from camp lejeune to Eglin Air Force base. Of course this all happened on a foggy night, last night, during a Training Mission involving two blackhawks from this station here at Louisiana Army national guard. One of them went down the other landed safely. Were told the marines on board that blackhawk that landed safely they have not yet been questioned or screened but they will be screened to find out if they can give any indication any idea about what happened here. It was very foggy and were told by a spokesperson from eglin that there were weather issues. Its not abnormal for these Training Missions to happen in inclement weather. But they have not yet determined if that is the sole contributor to this accident wolf. This investigation, victor clearly just beginning. Once again, were standing by for a News Conference. Well have Live Conference once it begins. Victor dont go too far away. Well check back with you as well. Very sad story for these marines and soldiers.

Isis is also waging a war on social media. Brutal new video has emerged of an israeli arab man being shot and killed by a child. The video so horrific cnns decided not to show any part of it that includes still pictures from the video. In it isis claimed the victim was an israeli spy. Elise labott is joining us live from jerusalem. Tell us what the Israeli Defense minister is saying about this isis claim. Reporter the defense minister claimed that even though 19yearold Mohamed Musallam had israeli citizenship, he was a palestinian that held israeli citizenship and his family lived in east jerusalem, he was not, i repeat not a member of musad. Definitely appeared to be under duress in this period. I know you had a chance to speak with his family members, musallams tell us what you found out. Reporter they were devastated. They called mohamed a warm, caring funny person. He was a volunteer firefighter and they say he fell prey to isis recruiters online. Take a listen to what his father told me last night. Translator mohamed told me and his brother that isis took him. They sent him money through the western union. They said you will have money, girls, cars, paradise. But after he trained, he discovered there is nothing. Reporter and, wolf he said that he tried to help his son get home. He wired him money, tried to enlist the red cross. He had seen him on a skype call. He didnt even recognize him. He had grown a beard and was armed. After about a month, he heard that his son was picked up by isis trying to cross the border to get home. And now this devastating video, wolf his brother told me that he saw it. He was devastated. But he will not show it to his parents who refuse to believe that their son is gone. Only 19 years old, right . Reporter im sorry. I cant hear you. Only 19 years old, Mohamed Musallam a young man indeed, a tragic story. Elise, well get back to you shortly. I know theres a big election coming up in israel in six days. Youll have the latest poll results that are out there. Stand by for that. Isis is known for using children as propaganda tools. They even refer to these little boys as cubs of the caliphate. Just ahead, well talk about the motive and the message behind these very disturbing images. I really admire my mother. Despite what people said she bought me a sewing machine and she let me play with dolls and that was something that was kind of growing up culturally, it was quite unacceptable and she really dared to let me be different.

Weve had a lot of local businesses that have donated food to us. It is extremely appreciated. Weve shared that with the members of the armed forces that are here.

We dont have any traffic problems right now. Navarre park is closed. The park on the south side is also closed. But other than that the citizens have been tremendous. And were really proud to serve the citizens of santa rosa county. The boaters out there have closed the waterways. Weve had some people try to go out on kayaks that may not be aware.

Were surrounded by three, four different Major Military installations. Its a way of life here in santa rosa county. The blue angels flying over to the special ops, the jets im proud to be a citizen of this country because i live here and get to experience it firsthand how big the military is. Its an awesome thing. Were proud of what they do. And were proud to serve our soldiers. Any other questions . Can you say and spell your first and last name . Rich alloy. Theres the latest reaction were getting. Sad story, 11 u. S. Service members, marines and soldiers apparently killed in a pretty shocking accident last night overnight. There you see a picture of one of those blackhawk helicopters. There were two routine training exercises but there was heavy fog. We dont know the cause of this crash. 11 members of the u. S. Military presumed dead. Much more coming up on this and other news were following. We told you about the latest shocking video from isis that shows a child shooting and killing a man accused of being an israeli spy. Of course this is not the first time isis has used children as part of its propaganda campaign. The terror group has released video showing militants training kids in physical combat. It shows the kids wearing black and holding up isis flags. The militants refer to these little boys as quote, cubs of the caliphate. Thats a reference to the way isis fighters call one another lions. Lets bring in our cnn Global Affairs analyst, bobby ghosh, and paul cruickshank, cnn terrorism analyst and author. Bobby, what is isis trying to accomplish by using these little boys, these kids in these videos . Well theyre doing two or three different things. They use kids because kids are much more easy to manipulate or to motivate and to do things like this. The message theyre sending to the wider world is twofold. One is look our cause is so pure that even children can respond to it and children are drawn by it. And the flip side to that is our resolve is so great, we are such warriors that even our children are willing to wield a gun in this cause. It is a message that only makes sense to the source of perverse mentality that they have. But thats what theyre trying to accomplish and also trying to tell everyone to add to the General Degree of terror that theyre trying to spread. Weve also seen paul as you well know these isis videos showing children in school. What are they trying to do . Indoctrinate these kids at such an early age in order to become in effect isis fighters . Thats absolutely right, wolf. Theyre trying to brainwash these young kids to become future isis fighters future soldiers of the caliphate. To some degree trying to blunt some of these young kids and involving them in these terrible crimes. And the propaganda message is also the caliphate is here to stay its a multigenerational project and here are the next generation that are going to fight for isis in syria, in iraq and beyond. You heard on that horrible story, that young israeli arab man, 19 years old from east jerusalem, he was recruited his father says by isis bobby, they told him, youll have a great life lots of money, women, villas. You heard the father say that. So the 19yearold, he sneaks out. He gets to isis territory and then they accuse him of being an israeli spy and kill him in a brutal video which is too brutal to even show on television. We at cnn have decided not to show still pictures of that video, murder of this young man or certainly none of the video. But whats intriguing is what the father said. They made all these promises to him on social media, special this promise of young women. Come with us, youll have a great time. This is common, isnt it . This is whats going on to recruit these young men. Absolutely. That is the message theyve been sending consistently for a couple of years now. Come join this fight. Its being portrayed as a great adventure. The underlying sentiment is you can come and do all these things. You can kill people in the name of your cause. You can have a house. You can have well find you a wife you can have money. And the most important thing is, you can get away with it. Theres no consequences. Big part of isis message, look were successful nobody is standing up against us which is why the recent military activities against them are so important. You need to change that narrative. For a lot of people the biggest part of the attraction is you can go and do all these things and nobody is going to throw you in jail, there are no consequences. Theyre very successful in this propaganda on social media, promising all these young men. Paul youve monitored these social media sites. They promise them everything. Youll have a lot of fun, just come over and join the fight. Thats absolutely right, wolf. But the most important thing that isis says in these social media postings and their propaganda is that its their religious duty to go and join isis. These are the people who are brainwashed in a radical interpretation distorted interpretation of islam who believe its their religious duty to go and fight with isis. They believe they will be rewarded for doing that in the afterlife by god, that by joining this struggle its part of an endofday struggle for the religion. Most of these young men and young women who are going to join isis are religiously brainwashed. Paul bobby, guys thanks very much. A horrible horrible story unfortunately continues. On a very different story were monitoring here at cnn, up next Hillary Clinton may have been hoping her News Conference yesterday would put an end to all the questions about her use of her private email system while serving as secretary of state.

Theres a new twist in the Hillary Clinton email controversy unfolding here in the United States. The Associated Press today filed a lawsuit against the state department. The a. P. Wants to force the release of email correspondence and government documents from secretary clintons time as the secretary of state. Todays legal action comes after repeated requests under the freedom of information act, including one made five years ago, those requests went so far unanswered. At a News Conference at the United Nations yesterday, mrs. Clinton said she used private email as a matter of convenience but that she fulfilled the request to turn over her work emails. The state department sent a letter to former secretaries of state, not just to me asking for some assistance in providing any workrelated emails that might be on the personal email. And what i did was to direct my counsel to conduct a thorough investigation and to err on the side of providing anything that could be connected to work. Lets discuss whats going on. Joining us to discuss this other question surrounding this entire email controversy, our cnn political commentateoreor Michael Smerconish and our chief political analyst, gloria borger. Gloria theres a lawsuit now thats going on from the a. P. I take it and you agree with me the controversy continues, it hasnt been put to rest. I think the clinton people knew themselves that their responses yesterday were not going to quell any of the controversy. The a. P. Lawsuit today specifically requests materials related to her private calendar to correspondence involving longtime aides. And you know this is going to stir up a whole hornets nest here among democrats and among republicans particularly on the Committee Investigating benghazi who are going to be interested to see what the a. P. Gets. So this is going to completely continue, specifically because Hillary Clinton made it clear yesterday that she and her counsel, as she put it in your clip, are the deciders. Theyre the ones who chose which emails to reveal and which emails not to reveal to hand over to state department and that remains a problem. But the state Department Says that was her prerogative like other officials, it was her right to make that kind of decision. Thats what she said. You and i and gloria, michael, remember the 90s. Is there a possibility the republicans could overreach in their quest for all this stuff . Absolutely. And i agree with what gloria just said in terms of her assessment. This is a legitimate issue. There are still many questions that i think require answers. But the republicans could easily overplay their hand. I take note of the fact that trey gowdy has already said he doesnt think its just one. He thinks its at least two visits that this will now necessitate before that House Select Committee on benghazi. So much of the country, politically speaking is already dug in with regard to secretary clinton. Theyre for or against her. Those who are neither are, i think, going to pay close attention to the way in which this is now handled and if they perceive that the republicans are ganging up on the secretary, it will turn them off as voters in 2016. I agree. Not that theyre asking for it but my advice to the gop would be keep your powder dry and let the media now ent, of course where you had the obvious issues with president clinton, then president clinton, and then you had the republican overreach, which seemed to turn the public in another direction. And i think there are people ive spoken to on the republican side of the aisle giving republicans the same advice michael, youre giving them. Kind of hold off and let this story play out a little bit. But there are, michael, legitimate questions still out there. She said yesterday there were about 61 62,000 emails, half of them basically were governmentrelated. She said she handed them all over to the state department. The other half she said were personal and they decided to delete, to destroy, in effect all of those emails. Thats raising a lot of questions, isnt it . It is and she worked feverishly not to use the d word although youre using it properly in your explanation. The New York Times in its first sentence used the d word. Im sure she thought is sounded rosemary woodsish. I took a look through my email trash bin before this conversation and admittedly im not the secretary of state, but so many of me emails are neither entirely professional or personal. I may interact with a colleague and make a personal statement. Interact way friend and make a professional statement about my work at cnn. Im not assuming shes any different than the rest of us in that regard. So werent there some emails out of the 60,000 that contained both the professional and the personal and if so, what became of them . Thats just one question. Michael, just to add to that point is the question of whether it was embarrassing really the point here. None of us want our embarrassing emails aired, but some of those embarrassing emails may actually have something to do with policy or with people. Right. That that for archival purposes that historians might find very interesting that are now lost. Yeah. Well see where the story moves but we thank both of you for joining us and dont forget for our north american viewers, dont miss smerconish the name of the show airing saturday mornings 9 00 a. M. Eastern only here on cnn. Still ahead, the israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is facing the election fight of his career and only six days. Will he be reelected . Live to jerusalem for the latest poll numbers. Plus more on the man who potentially could replace him. The israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could be out of a job soon, up reelection in six days and danger he could lose that election. Go to our Global Affairs correspondent elise live from jerusalem. New poll numbers showing hes slightly behind his party slightly behind. Isnt he . Reporter wolf israel you know its not even slightly. Im going to look at this israeli channel 2 poll released yesterday, and it has the labor Party Chairman and the labor party ahead of likud, which is Prime Ministers party by about four seats. You know the Israeli Parliamentary system revolves around forming a coalition. Not what gets the better seats but whoever has the power to coalesce everybody around them would be able to form a government. Now, if netanyahu was neck in neck, if lookikud was neck and neck with labor could have a chance to form the government as livn was offered in the last election. She won a few less seats than netanyahu. A few more seats, but in the end netanyahu formed the government. It really depends on who all the other parties are willing to form a coalition with, but it definitely looks like Prime Minister netanyahu is slipping in the polls and we deponent know where the voters are going, wolf. Just away likud. And a sense of momentum its turning way from the Prime Minister. Looks like hes losing support every day. He might have gotten a bump from his controversial address before the u. S. Congress last week but that bump has clearly gone away. Hasnt it . Reporter well, you know he got bumped and everyone looks at everything in seats. How many seats in the kanesset and the Israeli Parliament would get and maybe he got seat or two for a day or so but then the pollings dipped again. Now the fact he is behind four seats after this stunning speech that he went and really doubled down and put so much Political Capital on is really amazing, wolf. Tell us a little about the opposition leader, Isaac Hertzog . Reporter well Isaac Hertzog is the labor Party Chairman in opposition for a very long time. This is a lot of people call him the most boring politician in the world but hes un, amatic, mildamatic uncharismatic. An attorney by trade, son of a former president of israel has a real long legacy here. Some people compare his family to the kennedys here in israel. Hes a former retired army in the army and also basically has been working in the National Security cabinet. He has a long and illustrious career in politics but very little known. You know wolf i talked to a lot of israelis and they say they dont want to vote for netanyahu. Theyre kind of tired of the whole security platform, but they dont know Isaac Hertzog. He told me in an interview recently he understands he has a lot of explaining to do to voters about who he is but hes confident when israelis go to the polls theyll vote for him. See if he becomes the next republican of Prime Minister of israel. And cnn newsroom with anna cabrera starts right now. Hello. Im anna cabrera. Thanks for joining me. We begin with a search for a u.
