It is 2 00 a. M. In montreal where Canadian Police are looking for at least four missing young people who they believe have have headed to the middle east to join isis. Authorities say they may have been exposed to extremist views. Police say they left last month headed for turkey and possibly on to syria. Their families alerted police after they became worried the children were becoming radicalized. For months we have only known him as jihadi john. Now we know his name. Mohamed emwazi. I think all the families will feel closure. Another Family Member though reportedly said that he hoped he is brought to justice in course. Alexander field reports on how they figured it out. Reporter the chief isis killer now revealed as mo Mohammed Emwazi seen in videos claiming to murder a group of syria syrian pilots. Ofessional family. He once lived in this london neighborhood. This is a nice area. Responsible, polite quiet. Everything you would want a student to be. He graduated from the university of west minister with a degree in computer programming. For years he claimed Intelligence Officers harassed him. It is said to have started in 2009 and emwazi traveled to tanzania when he was stopped at the airport and sent back to the uk. Emwazi reportedly claimed officers accused him of trying to go somalia. But emwazi said he planned to join his fiance in kuwait. Onths ago, both u. S. And british Intelligence Officers claimed to know the idea offy yof jihadi john. It is possibly that he will still be a face of isis but my guess is hes going to go underground. He was last pubically seen in another japanese hostage. You now have 72 hours to pressure your government. Cnn, new york. And joining me now is sergeant gohel, a terrorism expert. Hes currently the International Security director. Hes live from london. Thank you for being with us. Pleasure to be with you. First, why do you think the u. S. Went public with his identity . Well unfortunately, what this individual now being unmasked as Mohammed Emwazi has been demystified. The aura of fear that he was instilling in the minds of people have been exposed. He thought that somehow he could keep getting away with thints and his identity was somehow protected. Now theres a name identity and background. In the meantime what does the fact that he has been identified what does that do to the hunt to find him . According to many of our officials here in the u. S. They just dont have the intelligence here in syria. There is very little that can be done in all likelihood he is probably in the capital of isis that is heavily guarded and very well protected and has been no effective rescue effort to take those individuals that have been captured by isis either the americans and bring taps or the ordinary iraqis and syrians that he has brutally murdered. Now that his name has come out, a lot of information will also pour out about him and also other keks to other britains that have traveled abroad. That is very important to build a wider picture of his network. And it of course will be interesting to see how this plays out on social media and the fbi says its quite concerned about social medias ability to recruit young people. Our top story was about four College Students from canada who had gone missing. The belief is they are headed to join isis. There are essentially three paradigm shifts. The concern is that with the number of social Media Companies with encryption we are continuing to go dark as a Law Enforcement community and an intelligence community. So the question is how do we in the west counter this pr machine that isis seems to be winning . Its a very difficult challenge. The Media Campaign is relentless. It serves as their oxygen of publicity and they use modern technology to carry out medieval brutality. Or the social media platforms. And the more radical extreme ones are using it in order to get their message out. Thank you for joining us. Yes. And coming up later this hour. Im your brother in islam here in syria. I originally come from canada. We will explore just how easy it is to join a group. Militants have sparked new outrage in the meantime in iraq by smashing statues. Isis said they were made by infidels though analysts say that many were replicas. And as thousands of christians take shelter in northeastern syria, a local militia now says as many as 360 syrians were taken hostage in isis raids earlier this week. Se maid is behind bars this morning. Ge. I think the government has to reform its policies. Policies at our disadvantages to mi fwrant workers. This exposes us to exploitation and abuse without other people knowing it. I work almost 24 hours a day. Cnn goes along on the hunt for boko haram. The soldiers were yelling as we were driving by. We take you to the front lines in nigeria. Also ahead hear sweeping new changes to keep the internet in the u. S. Free and open. What does it all mean . We will explain. Plus they were once banned in the u. S. Now cubas cigars are making quite the come back. The real question that needs to be asked is what is it that we can do that is impactful . What the cloud enables is computing to empower cancer researchers. It used to take two weeks to sequence and analyze a genome; with the microsoft cloud we can analyze 100 per day. Whatever i can do to help compute a cure for cancer, thats what id like to do. Would you be willing to give up sharing your moments . Sacrifice streaming all night long . Is it okay to drop a connection, when you need it most . If youre not on the largest, most reliable network, what are you giving up . Verizon. At least 35 people are dead after two bomb attacks in northeast and central nigeria. A suicide bomber detonated explosives at a bus station near the town thursday killing 18 people wounding six others and then hours later someone tossed bombs into crowds in jos. No one has claimed responsibility but boko haram militants are the prime suspects. Tions have resulted in Poor Visibility forcing the helicopters to fly quite low. We will be passing over cameroom. Were with one of the regions most feared military forces and also apparently one of the most effective. Some say heavy handed. After coming under attack by boko haram, this unit gave chase following the militants right across the border into northern nigeria. We were invited along with the top brass. The convoy to the front is massive, heavily armed, packed with jubilant troops. We passed through the abandoned town. It was firmly under boko harams control. We see a handful of women as the convoy speeds past. We cant see what they are shooting at. Then the distinct hissing of bullets close by. Our vehicle moves forward past the militant who had been shooting at our convoy. We dont see a weapon. Soldiers say they grabbed it. We see about half a dozen bodies left to rot. Before he went to syria. And many call it a victory for a free and open internet. We will guide you through Net Neutrality. An update on a trial we have been covering for some time in the u. S. A jury in arizona will return to court on monday to decide if jodi will get the death penalty. Thousands of people watched the trial on live tv two years ago. Arias maintained that she killed him in selfdefense. A huge victory for proponents for the free fast and open internet. The u. S. Federal communications voted in favor of Net Neutrality. Approving new rules to stop Internet Service providers from speeding up or slowing down individual websites and other services. Here are the basics. What is Net Neutrality . It has nothing to do with a volleyball or tennis court. The net refers to the internet. Something that has become as necessary as water and power for most of us. It is about keeping the net the way it is today. In order, speeding up access to some sights and slowing down access to others. So are these rules a bad thing . It depends who you ask. The companies that deliver your internet has spent millions in lobbying money to get rid of Net Neutrality. On the other side our internet giants like facebook and google and president obama. They all argue the internet is a public good and should be regulated like one. They t say that companies can play favorites. A content provider like netflix is in direct competition with comcast which owns Nbc Universal and controls access to the internet for more than 20 million customers. You can imagine a scenario where nbc might want to speed up speeds of its show and slow down netflix. Netflix can afford to pay for a fast lane. But the next netflix, some awesome start up cant. Brian with that handy guide. Hours from now, u. S. And cuban officials meet to reestablish full diplomatic ties after 50 years. If cigar industry is already receiving a boost from the effort to improve relations. Cubas green gold. One leaf at a time. The islands legendary cigars bring in hundreds of millions of dollars, a bright spot in an otherwise teetering economy. But many more may soon be lighting up a legal cuban cigar. It now allows u. S. Citizens to bring back up to 100 dollars in cuban to bako. The first thing swre to do with the americans is create an appetite for our product because they have lost that. Because what we make is excellent. As soon as they try it they will see the difference. The question now is whether cuba can begin to supply a new market for their famed smokes. Much of the work has been done by hand. Cuban producers say that they make some of the best cigars in the world but that means they cant cut any corners. At cubas yearly say gar festival the air is filled with smoke. There is obviously built up demand skpex sitement. They havent been able to smoke them legally for more than 50 years. All cigar smockers in america are going to want to give a legal cuban cigar a try. Quality is something we could never give up including the u. S. Market will happen with a product of maximum quality. Cubas cigar producers say their tobacco doesnt like to be rushed which means that americans may have to wait a little longer before they can fully quench their taste for the islands once forbidden cigars. Last years winner was able to accumulate nearly six and a half inches of ash before it fell. This years winner will be announced in just a few hours. Well let you know. Still ahead here on cnn newsroom a kiss may be just a kiss. When we make decisions, ill let you know. In the case of john boehner, it was more of kiss off i guess we should say.

And our old internet just wasnt cutting it. So i switched us from uverse to xfinity. They have the fastest, most reliable internet. Which is perfect for me, because i think everything should just work. Works . Works. Works works . Works. Works. Youre watching cnn live coverage. Here are our top stories. A hong kong woman is serving a sentence for brutally abusing her house maid. She was starved and even assaulted with a vacuum cleaner tube shoved into her mouth. A judge has dismissed charges against argentinas president. The case does not meet the standards to warrant a criminal investigation. The number of christians feared kidnapped by isis and syria keeps going up. A local militia now says up to 360 were taken hostage in a series of raids this week. Many are women, children, and elderly. As many of the men were fighting against isis elsewhere. The u. S. Officials tell cnn the man behind the British Voice in the brutal isis beheading videos has been idded. He is said to be 26 or 27 born in kuwait and raised in britain. And reportedly graduated from the university of west minister. It is believed he traveled to syria in 2012 where he joined isis. Emwazi was known to british intelligence. How does such a violent terrorist slip through the fingers of intelligence . That is the question that is being asked. Many people asking that very question. This is two of several newspapers here in the uk that are asking that question. You mentioned that the authorities here knew him and were tracking him back from 2009. If you remember this was being reported widely from the washington post. He traveled emwazi he traveled to tanzania in 2009. On arrival there he was topped. He was questioned about his links. Many saying perhaps he was there traveling hoping to travel to somalia and have links with the terror group. But this is just one side of the story that we are hearing. He was questioned about his thoughts on 7 7 and 9 11. Various other points this is according to kaij and clearly they knew who he was. They had an eye on him but authorities work in very different ways from the u. S. The idea is that you wait you watch and you monitor. You keep an eye on them before they actually go operational. For every Single Person that you need to monitor 24 7. And they clearly stretch. This is something that authorities have told us on the record. They have been recruiting recently but this is still a huge concern. Natalie . Yes. Is it interesting that there are some reports that uk authorities drove him to violent extremism . This is one line one story that were hearing. They spoke yesterday and they basically have had been in contact with him since 2009. We know so much information. Oing to finally learn that when we treat people as if they are outsiders, they will inevitably feel like outsiders and they will look for belonging elsewhere . Our entire National Security strategy for the last 13 years had only increased alienation has only increased people feeling like they dont belong. Why . Because the narrative of injustice has taken route. D he not . And we now know who he was. Thank you so much. Isis may be medieval in its tactics and ideology but the islamic terrorists are not above exploiting modern technology. Randy kay has more about that. You might think this is a commercial from the tourism board of canada. Its actually a video from isis posted on social media, aimed at convincing want to be jihadis to join isis in syria. A canadian convert was the ultimate pitch man for isis until he was killed fighting for them. But even that wont stop would be extremists from searching out isis online connecting in memberonly chatrooms. Is it that easy to just contact isis online . When these wannabes say they are emailing isis are they really emailing isis . They are emailing a coordinator or liaison. There are thousands of online forums where jihad is the draw. Available in all sorts of languages including english. Why arent they being shut down . Some of them are hard to find. How do you what are you going to do . Shut down all of twitter or face book . S is a group that beheads people crucifies others, sub ju gait what exactly is the attraction . According to weis everything i just mentioned. The grotesquery that they exhibit is designed to attract the jihadis. Owing online. Randy kay, cnn, new york. The u. S. Department of Homeland Security is set to run out of money today. Thats the agency in charge of airport screenings and Border Security and that has some people worried about protecting the u. S. Against attack extremist groups. The final accounting is done 2014 would have been the most lethal year for global terrorism. About the dangers of cutting off funding for the agency that keeps americans safe. American people are frightened and rightfully so. Isis appears to have money. Terrorist ace peer to have money. Why shouldnt our homeland have the ability to protect itself . Meanwhile the Homeland Security secretary is on capital hill again walking the halls, begging lawmakers to fully fund his department. This is not just an inside the beltway political jousting. A failure to fund the department of Homeland Security fully has real impacts on public safety. This is a vieolation of our constitution and it needs to be addressed and we are doing it. Is it worth shutting down the Homeland Security over . We have passed a bill to fund the department. But it stops the president from allowing undocumented immigrants legally. To save face with conservatives, some Senate Republicans argue a texas court is already stopping the president S Immigration plan. Accept the victory that the courts have given us which is that the president does not have the authority to do what he has done and vote to continue to fund the department of Homeland Security. The house speak ser in a bind. If ands and buts were candy and nuts. He did this. When we make decisions, i will let you know. That was an interesting thing that he did there wasnt it . The senate could start debate there in a republican bill to block executive orders on immigration we will have a live report from india when we return. Ard.
