Breaking new this morning north korea has said its successfully set off gnu another explosion. Balancing act with the state of the union now just hours away. How will president obama challenge republicans and seek Common Ground all at the same time . And replacing the pope. With the holy fathers sudden resignation, how do they pick the new one . Soo good morning, im Zoraida Sambol sambolin. And im john berman with more breaking news just ahead. North korea sending shock waves through the ground and around the world with its third test of an atomic test. This morning the white house is responding and allies in asia are calling emergency meetings as well. North koreas staterun news agency has announced, quote, they have success lil conducted a third underground nuclear test at a northern test site within that country. This after new york seismologists picked up a 5. 1 earthquake in north crey a mile underground in the same area where they conducted two previous tests. The big question this morning how strong was the blast and how close is north korea to making a bomb that it can sell or launch. What does this mean for north Koreas Nuclear program . There are a lot of skeptics who say they do not have the capability to make a bomb. Well, zoraida, it will be days before the u. S. Has a very good handle on the size of the explosion, the size of the payload, but at first glance what u. S. Officials are very concerned about are north koreas claims that it testified a miniaturized nuclear weapon. Why is that so concerning . That means theyre closer to making a missile that they could launch toward the united states. These types of dplier tesnuclea moves them closer to mastering the idea. It was expected, officials tell me, that north korea warned the u. S. And china yesterday that a test was eminent. After the test president obama issued a statement. What he said was north Koreas Nuclear weapons and Ballistic Missile programs constitute a threat to u. S. National security and to International Peace and security. We will strengthen close coordination with allies and partners and work with our sixparty partners,united Nations Security Council and other u. N. Member states to pursue this. They will be meeting this morning in an emergency session. My source is telling me u. S. Is going to push for tough condemnation, possibly sanctions. It depends what china will do at the u. N. , but the u. N. Has the option of going to other sanctions such as what they did with iran, squeezing north korea from the International Financial system. We know that youre following all the developments. Well check back in with you later. Coming up well have a live report from anna coren. Shes in seoul, south korea. John . Of course, as this is all happening president obama delivers his fourth state of the union report. If you want an example of how divided we are as a nation right now, specifically on the issue of gun control, a survivor of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre will be in attendance with other victims of gun violence asia long with ted nugent along with a texas lawmaker. But as Brianna Keilar reports, the main focus tonight is expected to be the economy. Mr. Speaker, the president of the united states. Reporter how times have changed. When he addressed congress one year ago, president obama faced sagging poll numbers and a tough road to reelection. The result, a state of the Union Address that contained few new proposals and largely fell flat, not likely this year. His party gained seats in both the senate and the house, the American People broadly speaking are with him, and so he can deliver a speech without the kinds of political constraints that he faced just 12 months ago. Reporter white house officials tell cnn that tonights address will bookend the president s inaugural speech last month when he laid out aggressive themes on gun control and immigration and mentioned some unexpected subjects. Some may still deny the overwhelming judgment of science but none can avoid the devastating impact of raging fires and crippling drought, and more powerful storms. Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law. Reporter while president obama is expected to aur more specifics on some of the issues, white house Officials Say the overall focus tonight will be the economy and adding jobs for the middle class. That topic got surprisingly little attention in the inaugural address. He hasnt given us an idea whether there is a sigs cant agenda that he wants to pursue design to try to accelerate Economic Growth and economic recovery. Thats been the big missing piece all the way through last year and well see whether its filled in in the state of the union. Reporter to that end president obama will frame much of his agenda under the umbrella of Economic Growth as he talks about tax reform and Government Spending and his proposals on education, Climate Change, and immigration. But while the wind is at his back, observers say president obama cant appear too bullheaded at the start of his second term. Brianna keilar, cnn, the white house. So in the next hour of early start, well look ahead to tonights state of address with Matt Cartright of pennsylvania and Illinois Republican congressman Adam Kinzinger. You can watch it tonight live on cnn. Our coverage begins at 7 00 p. M. Eastern and if you cant catch it, catch all of the highlights tomorrow morning on early start. New development this morning in the murder of chicago honor student hadiya pendleton. Two suspected gang members, 189yearold michael ward and 20yearold Kenneth Williams will be in court this morning. There are their mug shot s righ there. Police say ward confessed and said she was not the intended target. Just days before pendleton had performed at the president s inauguration, Michelle Obama appeared at the funeral. Tonight her parents will be guests at tonights state of the europe onaddress. Ted rowlands has more. What do we know and how did police find them . Reporter well, zoraida, how police found them unfortunately wasnt from a tip from the community. They said they were very disappointed in the fact that despite the fact that this case was on the airwaves every single day for almost two weeks and there was a 40,000 reward, dhad not get that tip from a witness. What happened was they just canvassed the neighborhood and picked up little tidbits and were able to narrow down these two and as you said, they got a partial confession from the 18yearold. And we heard that they mistook one of hadiyas friends for a rival gang member. Have we learned whether or not any of her friends were connected to any gangs . Reporter absolutely not. In fact, the 18yearold michael ward said he believed the one male underneath this canopy in this park was a member of a rival gang that. Was a case of mistaken identity. None of those kids, who had just finished taking a final exam at high school had anything to do with this. They were all innocent victims. We also know her parents will be attending the state of the Union Address. They were invited by mrs. Obama. Have they had any public reaction at all to the arrests . Reporter Gary Mccarthy said in the press conference last night that he talked to the parents who were in washington last night. They were very grateful for the outpouring of support but as you can imagine heartbroken still at the loss of their daughter, but this was good news that at least they made an arrest. And, ted, i want to ask one final question. You touched on something thats unique to chicago, maybe not with gangs, and that is that there were no tips that came in to the police department. Is that because the gang members actually have a Silence Policy on talking about what happened if they did witness anything . Reporter absolutely. No snitching. It is a huge problem. It is a huge problem in other urban areas as well. Its got on the the point that in talking with the states attorney its got on the the point people wont even tell police what they saw at a scene of a crime. It used to be when major witness was intimidated. Now everybody in the community is intimidated. Its a huge problem trying to put people behind bars. Of the murders last year, 546. Left than half of those resulted in arrests. Thats really careful and thank kind of compounds the problem of gun violence in chicago. Ted rowlands, thank you very much for that update. It is now ten minutes past the hour. And now Pope Benedict xvis stunning announcement that hell be stepping down we have an idea when a new pope will take the reins. Jim bittermann explains. Reporter since no pope has resigned in six centuries, theres very little precedent for what will happen at the vatican, but there are a few hints. The papal spokesman announced that therell be a new pope by easter. Easter is the 31st of march, so the 118 members will have to get through that. The spokesman also said the college of cardinals will not convene while the pope is still . Office. So that means the popes will not go into conclave before he steps down. The election process itself could be quite short. With jet travel it no longer takes weeks for cardinals to gather. In fact Third Quarter could arrive early in march. What will be missing is the period of mourning and reflection that takes place when a pope dies. It is still an open question whether the cardinals will immediately fwaer and go sbieng the conclave or take a few days to get into the mood for electing a pope. Also unclear is whether without a mourning period there will be time in the schedule for the kwee yet and formal gathers of cardinals which have in the past have been a time when the men who decide the next pope can size up their fellow cardinals, perhaps deciding who among them could make the best leader of the church. The conclave begin when they file into the Sistine Chapel and the doors are locked behind them so they can conduct their vote in secret. In ancient times the conclave went fairly long. It took three years in the 13th century to elect pope gregory x. But some have gone less than 24 hours and in more recent times they have lasted just a few days. Cardinal ratzinger was elected with only 24 rounds of voting in less than 24 hours. Also shortening the process, the cardinals know far more about each other and their qualities than they have in the past. Of the 116 cardinals personally selected by benedict in the last seven of years it seems very likely that theyll enter the conclave with likemindedness of who would be the next pope. In the next hour, a look at the possible successors. Whos on the short list. Well talk with Raymond A Roy row. Hes a news director at ewtn, the eternal world of television network.
