Osteoporosis is preventable. All osteos preventable . Right on if you dig your bones, protect them. All cbs cares with unique insight into all of this, we turn to ambassador nick burns, a career american diplomat, former National Security Council Director for russian affairs, and former u. S. Representative for nato. He now teaches diplomacy at harvard. Mr. Ambassador, what are the stakes in what weve seen today . Well, its been a consequential day, scott. We havent had a nato member aircraft since 1952, and so the stakes are very high, that the russians learn the lessons of what happened but also that this can be deescalated so that theres no further action, and russia and turkey and the other countries can go back, hopefully trying to combat isis. Pelley well, the russian president called it a stab in the back. Could this escalate . It could escalate. I think theres i think the United States and president obama are going to work very hard to see that it doesnt, but theres an important principle at stake here, scott. Every nation has a right to protect its own borders. And president obama sided with the turks today in saying that they have that right. It was a gross violation of International Law for the russians even to fly close to that border, but to cross it, thats a red line that cant be crossed. And so i think the lesson here for the russians has to be theyre fairly isolated right now. They dont have many friends in the middle east. They say that they want to attack and defeat isis but theyre not really fighting isis. Pelley you know, the turks fired on this aircraft after it had been in their airspace for only about 30 seconds or so, were told. Why do you think the turks would make a point of shooting this airplane down . I think because theres a history here. The russians have violated turkish airspace several times since the russians began air operations in syria two months ago. And the turks have warned the russians publicly and privately that theres going to be a response at some point. The russians may have thought that the turks werent serious but they found out today that they were. Its a tragedy. Its not something, obviously, that the United States wants to see happen, but the turks do have a right to protect that border. The emphasis now has to be on making sure it doesnt happen again. Pelley ambassador nicholas burns, thank you very much. Thank you. Pelley well, the war on isis means that security at home will be tighter as millions of americans head out for the holiday. Heres jeff pegues. Reporter police at Los Angeles International airport today were armed with automatic weapons. This thanksgiving week, amid isis threats, there will also be a larger Police Presence than usual in new york. Police commissioner bill bratton. I think it quite clear what certainly is this idea of dont be afraid. Be aware. Reprter a new intelligence bulletin sent to Law Enforcement around the country warns that there could be copycats in the u. S. Looking to replicate the paris attacks. Ron hosko is a former assistant director of the f. B. I. How much of isis strategy is about fear . I think a large proportion is about fear. Could something happen . Yes. But is there a greater likelihood of being struck by lightning or struck by a car on the way to d. C. . Yes. Reporter today, president obama tried to reassure the public. What happened in paris is truly horrific. I understand that people worry that something similar could happen here. I want you to know that we will power to defend our nation. Reporter and that strategy involves studying tactics used in paris. Intelligence officials believe the attackers conducted preoperation surveillance. Police in the u. S. Are being advised to be on the lookout for suspicious people conducting surveillance on soft targets. Pelley jeff pegues, thanks. In another big story tonight, a White Chicago Police officer was charged today with murder more than a year after shooting a black teenager in the back. Released tonight and chicago is bracing for a reaction. Heres dean reynolds. Here is dean reynolds. Police said nothing as he turned himself in faces firstdegree murder charges and according to his lawyer scared to death. States attorney. This officer went over board. Van dyks trouble began in october of last year along this street when he and seven other officers pursued a robbery suspect. 17yearold Laquan Mcdonald who was acts e radically and waiving a threeinch knife. No other officer felt the need to open fire accept van dyk, who prosecutors say, 6 seconds after arriving on the scene shot mcdonald 16 times. It took 14 seconds, 13 of which the teenager was on the ground. Prosecutors say van dyk was preparing to reload when ordered to hold fire. Van dyk said mcdonald lunged at him and that he feared for his life, but the prosecutor said a police videotape tells a far different story and so did an eyewitness. The motorist stated that mcdonald never movered toward, lunged at or did anything threatening towards the officer before he was shot and fell to the ground. For 13 months chicago officials had resisted releasing jeopardize local and federal investigations of the shooting. A county judge last week over rode that argument and ordered the tapes be released the video is graphic, violent and chilling and theres concern once its available for all to see it could provoke a violent reaction and painful questions about why it took so long to arrest the shooter seen on the tape.

Nato held an emergency session trying to contain the political and military fall out after turkey shot down a russian plane. Vladimir putin called it a stab in the back and causing it significant consequences. It was bombing militants across the border in syria. They opened fire when the jet was on opened fire over turkish territory. Tolly williams begins our coverage. Reporter turkey says the russian warplane strayed over a mile into the airspace. Its firy decent crashing down in northwest syria. Turkey says this radar map shows where the aircraft briefly crossed over, but russia denies the plane ever left syrian airspace, and the visibly angry russian president Vladimir Putin called turkeys actions a stab in the back, describing the turkish as terrorists accomplices. Turkey had already warned moscow about violating its airspace and says russian planes did so twice in october. A Syrian Rebel Group posted this video, which seems to show the bloody body of one of the russian pilots. The fate of the other pilot is unknown. Russia and turkey are on opposite sides of the syrian civil war. Turkey, like its ally the u. S. , while russia backs he Syrian Regime and in september began launching airstrikes. Moscow claims to be targeting isis, but the u. S. Says its also hit socalled moderate rebels because russias real goal is to prop up syrias dictator, Bashar Alassad. There were hopes that russia could be coaxed into cooperating with the u. S. And its allies in the fight against isis, but, scott, after this incident, that now looks even more uncertain. When the moment russian war planes began operating after that air space in syria it was an International Incident waiting to happen. Russian planes violated turkish airspace on at least two previous occasions, flew within 500 feet of american aircraft striking isis targets in syria, and bombed opposition groups supported by the u. S. And its allies. To avoid incidents, a hot line was set up between the Russian Defense ministry and the u. S. Run command center for Coalition Airstrikes against isis. But to no avail. After Vladimir Putins angry reaction to the shootdown, the Russian Military said a cruiser armed with surfacetoair missiles would be stationed off the syrian coast ready to shoot down any planes that threatened its aircraft. President obama urged both sides to remain calm and described the incident as a consequence of russias policy of flying airstrikes in support of the Syrian Regime of bashar al assad. I do think that this points to an ongoing problem with the Russian Operations in the sense that they are operating very close to a Turkish Border, and they are going after moderate opposition. Reporter turkey is a member of nato, which has spent the past year and a half scrambling jets and deploying troops to counter what is seen as increasingly aggressive russian behavior. The sudden appearance of russian warplanes in syria represented another threat to nato, this time on its southern flank, when the u. S. Sent planes to turkey in an effort to increase the number of strikes against isis, it also sent airtoair fighters to defend turkish airspace against russian warplanes. Russia may be causing problems, but in this particular incident, scott, u. S. Officials blame turkey for overreacting to a minor violation of its airspace. News came as president obama in the wait of the paris terror attacks. Theyre trying to rally
