Worst is yet to come. The problem is after this moves away were looking at some of the coldest air we have seen in years, record breaking arctic air is going to start working into the midwest on thursday and settles into here by friday. Denmark defiant, the Danish People come together against terrorism despite fears of another attack. What weve seen in the last 24 hours is both the fear and the hope of people in denmark, just in the last few hours, there was a security scare that cleared the area here in front of the cafe where you can still see those bullet marks. A new front, where will isis strike next as it takes roolt in libya. Pope francis mourns the 21 victims and saying their only words, jesus help me. Taking steps to protect the homeless right in his front yard. Good day, im Andrea Mitchell in washington. More information is now being uncovered about the suspected shooter in this weekends terror attacks in denmark. Omar abdel Hamid El Hussein has been named as the gunman in Court Proceedings and there is chilling audio in the moments when the gunman open fire at the copenhagen cafe. Yes, it is freedom of speech but and the turning point is but why do we still say but when we [ gunfire ] thousands gathered in copenhagen last night to mourn the two men killed in the attacks at the cafe and the synagogue. And this morning they observed a moment of silence for the victims. Kelley cobiella joins me with the very latest. Kelly, we know this community is coming together. Reporter it is andrea but its been an extremely difficult time as you can imagine. Danes have been living under the threat the possibility of this kind of attack for quite a long time because of their history with free speech and with cartoonists who have drawn caricatures of the prophet mohammed, this is the first time when it has come to be come to pass in a relatively peaceful Nonviolent Society as well. You can imagine theres quite a bit of nervousness. Earlier today this whole area was evacuated and cordoned off because of a suspicious package that turned out to be a simple envelope. You can see how nervous and on edge people here are still. What about the Jewish Community . Reporter well the Jewish Community is still i would say more than nervous, the president of the Jewish Community told nbc news today that he is pushing hard for more security at synagogues and schools. Hes concerned about jewish People Living in this country, obviously because of the attack on saturday night. He pointed out that there were 80 people in the building next to that synagogue saturday night and were it not for the shooting here first, there would not have been additional security there on saturday night. And the Prime Minister as well has said you know we were lucky, andrea. And the suspect, i know they are trying to uncover whether or not there were coconspiracy tors, two people were arrested for helping him. What do they know about any connections he may or may not have had to organized radical islam . Well the Intelligence Services are saying that first of all, hes not known to have traveled to syria. He was on their radar but wasnt considered so much of a threat that they had him under surveillance. He reportedly was released from prison about two weeks ago. He was apparently serving a 15year sentence for assault while in prison became such became so rads callized apparently the Prison Guards took notice and the prison staff reported him to the Intelligence Services. But again, the Intelligence Services say we had no indication whatsoever that he was planning any sort of attack. And the Prime Minister has said that theres no connection to any wider terrorist cell in denmark. But a lot of these things are still being investigated and the police and Intelligence Services really arent talking about them. Kelly cobiella thank you so much from copenhagen. Now to the fight against isis in north aafrica, egypt launched more air strikes, continuing retribution for the beheading of christian coptic egyptians. Ayman mohyeldin joins me with the latest. The egyptian foreign min came to new york to meet with ban kimoon heading here for the president and secretary of states counterterrorism summit this week. What can egypt really do to go against isis in the middle of what is becoming a civil war in libya . Youre right in the sense that its somewhat limited in what it can do. As weve mentioned in the past libya is in a state of civil war. There are two governments and two factions competing with each other with battles on pt ground between these two rival governments, if you will. In the absence of a Central Government the Egyptian Government as well as other allies really dont have anybody to deal with that can exert control over the territory. And that is what has given the rise to isis in libya. Egypt now wants to get the International Community to deal with libya the same way it has dealt with syria in the sense that they want to get an authorization to use force and try to get european support behind it. Countries like italy have suggested that they would be behind an International Effort to try to resolve the situation in libya. Italy is just a few hundred miles from the border of libya. They have had a lot of problem with migrants coming from africa. There have been some italian officials who suggested that the United Nations should consider a peacekeeping force and peace enforcing force on the ground that they and the International Community could be a part of. If egypt decides to continue militarily to act enside libya, a lot of questions on whether or not they can be effective in the long run or exacerbate the problem on the ground inside that country. Thank you so much. Well have more on all of this coming up as well. But first, here at home the weather. Winter weather woes continue this week impacting 50 Million People from the deep south to new england. Cutting off power for more than a million customers. Snow and ice brought treacherous travel conditions to states like kentucky and tennessee and virginia not used to this kind of weather where a car came within inches from hitting the camera from an nbc news affiliate. And in new jersey, a snow plow fell in a sinkhole along a snow covered road this morning. Four inch fell here in washington, enough to bring the nations capitol to a stand still. Heres the report filed from the mall. Reporter andrea its a snow day here in washington, d. C. About four inches of snow on the ground compared to the 4 feet of snow we have up in boston. This is an improvement, but it is still enough to shut things down here. Federal offices are closed and schools are closed today and the purpose is to keep people off the street and to get the crews to clear away the roads and get things up and running quickly. This was part of a big storm system that hit the south hard. We had a foot of snow fall in kentucky and virginia. We had several reports of ice damage on power lines and making for slippery roads from North Carolina back through nashville. Nashville has seen its worst ice storm in 20 years. So it is going to remain a concern especially because now were not going to see temperatures warm up any time soon. Were looking at some of the cold eflt air we have seen in years, record breaking cold will work into the midwest by thursday morning. Then it will spread all the way down into the south by the time we get into friday morning, even raleigh trying to clean up from the ice storm, will see a morning low friday of 1 degree. In washington, d. C. , we havent gotten below zero since 1994. And were going to make a run at it on friday. Andrea . Dylan dreyer from snowy washington which for some reason there was no snow plows out. Lets hope that situation improves. Joining me by phone, jim butterworth, director of georgia Emergency Management agency. Mr. Butterworth, thanks for joining us what is the Progress Report . I know its a tough battle in this kind of conditions. Yes maam, it is a tough battle. Our folks are out and a number of different areas. We have about 60 teams that are engaged mostly it debris clearing and we have a lot of downed power lines and downed trees on the power lines and thats the result those about 200,000 customers that are without power right now. Definitely working to make that better here though. What about the ice, is snow and ice still falling as we speak. No man, the event ended kind of overnight around midnight last night. And we worked very actively to get a brine, a salt treatment down the road so that because this morning we did actually kind of dip below freezing around the Atlanta Metro area but as a result of that brine pretreatment, we didnt see any slick spots in the metro area but ice continues to be an issue in north georgia. Always a big challenge down there. Thank you so much and good luck to you and your crews. Safe work on all of that repair that has to be done. And much more coming up on the deep freeze ahead, including the latest from snow bound boston where the snow keeps on coming. Plus snow baby, weather or not, no matter snow sleet or rain. Like his head is out. Oh, my gosh im going to deliver the baby in the truck. The new arrival coming up next. This is Andrea Mitchell reports only on msnbc.

The brutal execution of egyptian Coptic Christians has outrage the world, exploiting the turmoil that existed there since nato overthrew gadhafi in 2011. Will this be addressed as president obama and secretary of state kerry convene they are counterterror summit this week . Im joined by director of the middle east for the Obama Administration, thank you very much steven for being with us. The point of this conference is to bring the world together to talk about solutions and what can be done domestically places like minnesota where local groups are working with Somali Refugees and trying to counter alienation and other inherent risks. But this is a crisis point and some of us are asking what about what happened in libya what happened in jordan what is happening now with isis . How does one address that . Well theres no comprehensive way to address it really. These groups particularly in libya, are very well entrenched. The situation there favors isis because its relatively so isis is in a position to really do what it likes and exercise it a substantial degree of freedom of action. As you noted, extremists have been pouring back into libya from the very opening moments of the nato campaign against the gadhafi regime in 2011. So theyve got quite an infrainstruct tour there. The way in which these groups in libya and sanaa and elsewhere, pro actively reach out to isis to affiliate itself with that group and it shows just how potent isis message is. Should we and nato have stayed longer in libya . Isis is now inhabiting the vacuum in this turmoil. Well one of the problems with military intervention for humanitarian purposes they dont have real staying power. Its not as though the United States its allies hadnt put together a very comprehensive post conflict reconstruction and stabilization plans for libya. Its just that no one was there to carry those plans out. So you know, there was Fertile Ground for mayhem. Egypt is calling for help from the u. N. And italy is talking about whether or not the west should intervene. Air power alone will not root this out. No air power wont and egypt in particular is running a big risk, i think by carrying out those air strikes. Sooner or later one of its pilots will be shot down and will be killed brutally by isis and will intensify the conflict further. The egyptians really arent capable of sustaining expedition nar operations in libya. They dont really have the ability to do that. Their army is designed to operate in the nile delta around the capital and not all that much farther from it. So the egyptians might be getting in over their head after all, theres 1,000 kilometer border between egypt and libya and its essentially undefended and open to isis if it chooses to raid egypt or infiltrate it in other ways. And how threatening is all of this to italy, which is only couple hundred miles away . Well you know honestly i dont think that this is going to bring the italian state to its knees, i think that they are a bit worried and they are certainly vulnerable to attacks in the way that other European Countries have shown themselves to be vulnerable. But i scarcely think it is an existential threat to italy. Finally, this conference that the president is convening, part of this is a new state department effort to counter the propaganda successes, frankly, from isis that you just pointed to. They are very appealing to these disenfranchised and angry and militant groups. Can the state Department Office with counter relations prop pull gate isis propaganda . Its going to take more than that. When it was first set up it was seriously underfunded because there was a skepticism about the effectiveness of these counter radicalization programs that the office was supposed to support. I think congress and the white house are really going to have to get behind this in terms of funding and not just for the purposes of devising clever messages but get underlying conditions particularly vulnerable communities where recruitment is rife in prisons and schools and elsewhere, just in a very specific areas where these problems are emerging and fund serious comprehensive programs for those vulnerable communities. Thats really what needs to be done and perhaps you know the programming and the funding will emerge from the impetus provided by the summit. Steven simon, thanks for with being us today. Well have a love report from boston where it is snowing, again, yes. Toenail fungus . Dont hide it. Tackle it with new fdaapproved Jublia Jublia is a prescription medicine proven to treat toenail fungus. Use jublia as instructed by your doctor. Once applied jublia gets to the site of infection by going under, around and through the nail. Most common side effects include ingrown toenail, applicationsite redness itching, swelling, burning or stinging, blisters, and pain. Tackle it ask your doctor now if new jublia is right for you. Theyre still after me. Get to the terminal across town. Are all the green lights you . No. Its called grid iq. The 4 51 is leaving at 4 51. They cut the power. Itll fix itself. Powers back on. Quick thinking traffic lights and self correcting power grids make the world predictable. Thrillingly predictable. Theres a gap out there. Thats keeping you from the healthcare you deserve. At humana, we believe the gap will close when healthcare gets simpler. When frustration and paperwork decrease. When grandparents get to live at home instead of in a home. So lets do it. Lets simplify healthcare. Lets close the gap between people and care. I thank miikka for helping moderate today and proving on your show every morning that women really are the better half. Joe is not denying it. He wouldnt dare. President obama at the White House Forum for women and economy two years ago. The president was only half joking because the president knows female empowerment and gender equality are big issues championed by mika brzezinski. Now she is partnering with Nbc Universal to take that message on the road in a special fivecity tour. Joining me now is mika brzezinski. Ive been working on this for years and excited that were launching. Tell me about the tour and what your goals are. Youve been working on this you wrote the book but taking it the next step. What i found when i wrote the book i thought i was just sharing a few maybe concerns that i had that maybe some other women had as well. What i found was some of the issues that we confront in our own minds before we even get to the negotiating table, they are universal concerns universal challenges. I think women tend to apologize their way into conversations and selfdepry indicate its amazing how fierce we are with our jobs advocating for a deal we want to cut or story we want to tell or protecting our companys bottom line or our husbands or children. When it comes to advocating for money for ourselves, somehow we lose our voices. We become terrified and we feel like its untoward almost or inappropriate and that is sort of the veil i want to lift off. I made all of those mistakes every time when i was trying to rectify my salary situation. And i docume
