Of a serious imminent threat. what is the latest? what does this mean for the people there? >> well, authorities, don, have extended that serious threat level up in many until next monday. so were looking potentially at about a week and a half. they are hoping, however, to reopen schools and the subway system on wednesday. but theyre saying that that isnt any signifier of any real sense that the threat level here is lessening. in fact, theyre asking people to be on high alert, to be vigilant, to...

Huge embarrassment. >> he was hardly under the radar. he was garnering publicity in the magazine profile. people knew about him. >> people knew about him. why admittedly he was on the ground in iraq. and why were people in europe able to go ahead and why were those around him not more closely watched? those are the questions for french security services. more questions about the men directly involved on friday night. eight. many questions about them. many were known to security services and noth...

Descent. you have a muscular policy in mali, the sahara desert, with french forces actively fighting jihadist groups there. you add the poor integration of large cross-sections of the french-muslim communities, cultural tensions, its an explosive mix. >> it is so significant in that country. i want to ask you, quickly. we heard after the charlie hebdo attacks france invested heavily in counterterrorism. of course ten months doesnt just change everything right now but is this problem what were wi...

Peninsula. there was an initial claim of responsibility from isis, although they appeared to be claiming they shot it down with a missile and didnt look like that happened. why do you think the jump to isis and what does it mean for the region if it were in fact, if it does in fact end up being connected back? >> i think it has profound implications. after "charlie hebdo," the work that went into trying to enhance security procedures, coordination between the national military in france, the pol...

Continues, the more were hearing from high ranking officials from multiple countries saying that they believe that it is a bomb that took down that night. egyptian officials have been probably the most cautious of anyone about what caused this flight to crash. they are still leading the investigation. we are also hearing that another airline, dutch carrier, klm, is now bringing its own security team to the cairo airport to conduct checks before passengers get on the plane. three personnel will b...

Concern is that you can have the best vetting procedures, screening procedures, but if you have an inside job -- which seems to be the case here -- if theres corruption or bribery or radicalization from within to put a piece of lug am on an airplane, you know, its very difficult to stop that. i think sharm el-sheikh didnt have the best security procedures in place compared to ours in the united states, but if you have this insider threat, again, hard to stop that. i talked on fox news sunday abo...

Device. as you know, al qaeda has been working on these undetectable bombs for a long time. this is almost certainly isis. but it doesnt make the problem any less severe. so i think first of all, the question is, was this a product of incompetence or compromise, or new technology. and the secondary problem, hand carried or stored luggage. >> from what we know, the security procedures for a plane leaving egypt, going into russia are quite different and less strict. would that have been enough? fr...

But it does make the problem any less severe. i think, first of all, the question is was this product of incompetence or promise or new technology. then the secondary problem hand carried or stored luggage. >> from what we know the security procedures for plane leaving going into russia are quite different and less strict than planes entering the united states. would that have been enough because from what ive read about those undetectable bombs that al qaeda has been trying to develop, it is th...

The russian plane in sinai. one senior obama official telling cnn certainty is, quote, 99.9%, another official saying it is quote likely. we are learning that sole some intelligence used to make that determination came from israel. u.s. official briefed on the intelligence and a diplomatic source say communications captured by israeli intelligence passed along to the united states and britain. egyptian officials say news reports claiming lax security and nonfunctioning equipment at sharm el shei...

Likes of an explosion. >> which is why you have so many u.s. officials kind of scratching their heads. why didnt they have anything on the recordings that pointed to something going wrong? because of that, in the abundance of caution, until they figure out what kind or if this was a device that got on the plane, theyve got to start overhauling all procedures. a u.s. official i spoke to today though said one of their issues with trying to determine what is going on with sharm el sheikh is since t...
