Reporter good morning. The recent explosion of violence in afghanistan has led president obama to reverse his decision to bring nearly all u. S. Troops home by the time he leaves office. This was a tough call for the president who had declared the american war in afghanistan to be over. Now, hell slow the drawdown from the current level of 10,000 troops to about 5,500 by the end of 2016. His original plan was keep a thousand troops stationed in kabul. U. S.

Hundreds of israeli troops are deployed across the country and attacks targeting troops and civilians continue. Eight israeli and 31 palestinians have been killed in the recent violence. Johnathan vigliotti is in jerusalem with the growing tension. Good morning. Reporter good morning. The increased presence of the military here on the streets is truly adding to the paranoia. We saw a group of young israeli men, civilians openly carrying assault rifles inself defense. A short while ago, i spoke with a palestinian father of five who says he is worried about the safety of his children, concerned if they go out of their house, they could be targeted, mistaken for terrorists. The scene of a young dead palestinian man surrounded by Israeli Forces is the latest one in this latest surge of violence and he was shot dead yesterday after he allegedly tried to knife an Israeli Security guard. Another tacker at a bus station was shot and killed by police after stabbing a 70yearold israeli woman. Knife attacks are a hallmark of the recent unrest. This security video released by Israeli Police shows a assault on commuters during the central city city. Civilians are having demonstrations in violence as who have died. This man was killed during clashes with Israeli Security forces. And no sooner had his funeral in bethlehem finished, fighting erupted on the streets once again. Anger and fear is palpable. Very, very dangerous. We are scared. Reporter in his first address since the violence began, palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas caused for resistance but vowed to continue the national struggle. Calling for peaceful resistance, the first time we should mention that he has spoken out on this violence since it erupted three weeks ago. But we should mention not everybody is listening. In fact, earlier this morning, three palestinian men were arrested. Israeli Police Suspected them of about to launch another attack. Norah . Johnathan vigliotti in jerusalem, thank you. Another republican congressman says the House Committee investigating the deadly 2012 benghazi attack wants to hurt Hillary Clintons president ial chances. Representative Richard Hanna of new york told a radio interviewer he believes the probe is politically motivated. I think that there was a big part of this investigation that was designed to go after people. An individual, Hillary Clinton. You know, i think there is also a lot of it that is important that that we needed to get to the bottom of this, but this has longer than watergate. House Majority Leader Kevin Mccarthy suggested last month the investigation was meant, in part, to sink clintons poll numbers. Clintons Campaign Spokesman says the inquiry, quote, has zero credibility left but the former secretary of state will testify to the committee next week. This morning, the Clinton Campaign is telling Vice President joe biden to make up his mind about running for president. Clinton and senator Bernie Sanders are reaping the rewards from tuesday nights debate. Many democrats are asking if there is still even an opening for joe biden. Nancy cordes is in des moines, iowa, where the first in the nation caucuses are three and a half months away now. Nancy, good morning. Reporter good morning. The Clinton Campaign is subtly, but upping the pressure on Vice President biden to announce his intentions. They feel this field has been in limbo long enough. Did we have a good debate last night . We will win nevada for the democrats to keep a democrat in the White House Reporter an energized Hillary Clinton stayed in nevada wednesday after a debate performance that gave her campaign a badly needed shot of confidence. The Campaign Chair issues this challenge to biden. I think the time has come for a decision. Im feel really lucky in las vegas. Reporter clinton, herself, took a more handsoff approach. I think he needs to decide what is best for him and his family. Reporter biden has to consider sanders sudden surge in funding and he raised more than 2. 5 million in 24 hours and more than republican rand paul raised in three months. We asked skarnedsanders if he would like to see another candidate in the race. Joe biden is a good friend of mine. Some people say who he comes in the was it does me good and others say it doesnt. I dont know the answer to that. Reporter anyone looking for clues from biden himself didnt find them in this brief assessment of the debate. I thought they all did well. Reporter hit on supporters in the Draft Biden Movement insist clintons debate performance only made it more clear why biden needs to run. There really isnt a pier for her on the stage and i think having the Vice President on the stage, it gives democrats a good alternative. It would give us our primary a boost. Reporter if biden does get in the race, hell attend the Second Democratic debate here in des moines on november 14th. Check out another signed that sander is feeling good after his performance on tuesday night. Here he is busting out the dance moves with ellen at a taping in california yesterday. The show is slated to air this afternoon. Thanks, nancy. Something i thought i would never see, Bernie Sanders and ellen. Right, dancing. He is also now political target for billionaire donald trump, the republican frontrunner hit the vermont senator hard in wednesdays rally in richmond, virginia. Clinton to the left. I watched hillary last night. We are going to give this and that and a poor woman to give everything away because this maniac standing on her right is giving everything away so she is following. That is what is happening this socialist communist, okay . Nobody wants to say it. Cbs news contributor frank luntz is with us. Good morning. Its always unnecessary. Donald trump finds the line and then crosses it and then jumps a mile beyond it. And its part of the reason why Kevin Mccarthy went through what he did, why you see so much anger, so much frustration and its happening on both sides of the political spectrum and the focus groups that im doing, it is tough to make it through the three hours, because people are just so mad. You know what . Trump is talking to them. He really is relating to them. He is leading in iowa, new hampshire, south carolina, and the first four states. My advice to viewers, stop looking at the National Polls and follow those first four states because, charlie, nobody has ever won those first states and not won the nomination and trump is ahead in all four. One more question about trump. Is this a new strategy for him to attack democrats . Is he going to focus more on democrats now than he is on republicans . Ts hard to tellit is hard to tell. We have never seen a republican attack republicans the way he has and in that clip he left Hillary Clinton alone but it doesnt bother other republicans. When we have shown those clips to focus groups of him ripping into on the gop candidates, they laugh and want to see more. Its entertainment for them. He seems to use social media, frank, very effectively. How much of a difference does that make that you can get the good and bad and oh, so ugly out so quickly for him. I havent talked about this before but we have been looking at content of social media and for the first time conservative social media is more negative, more vicious and more personal in the attacks than left wing social media and trump is provoking it and stoking it. All you have to do is look at what happened after the democratic debate when clinton and sanders people were actually complimenting each other. Then look at the republican social media and it is vicious. Every day, every hour they are coming after each other. We have never seen that before. How has trump complicated jeb bush and marco rubio and other republicans candidates attempt to Gain Momentum . We have heard they dont get the air time because of all the things trump is saying. He is so telegenic you want to focus on him but deeper than that because trump support is deeper than that. The more that we inform people about where trump stands, they dont break from him. Bernie sanders has the weakest support of any candidate that they can go i dont mean Bernie Sanders. Ben carson. Trump, over 80 of trump voters say they are going to stay with him no matter what they learn and that makes it hard for rubio and bush to get traction. Frank luntz, thank you so much. Pleasure. A fast moving wildfire near austin, texas, has destroyed nine homes and is threatening more than 100 others. Firefighters are battling the 4200 acre hidden pine fire from the ground and the air, but this morning, its only 15 contained. This morning, former nba showing small signs of improvement in the hospital. But there is new information today that odom may have used cocaine in the days before he was found unconscious at a nevada brotherl. Kevin frazier is outside Sunrise Hospital center in las vegas where lamar odom is recovering. Kevin, good morning. Reporter good morning, gayle. You know, according to a source inside the hospital that is close to the family that i spoke with yesterday, there were small improvements for lamar odom. He squeezed Kim Kardashians hand and he briefly opened up his eyes, but understand this. He is a long way from being out for his life. The first 911 call came around 3 15 nevada time tuesday from a female employee of the love ranch where lamar odom had been a guest since saturday. Another male caller told operators about drugs he says odom had been tag. He apparently had some cocaine on him that has he finished he did this on saturday. As far as you know, there is no cocaine since saturday . That is correct. Reporter the caller also said odom was taking large amounts of reload, a sexually enhancement drug that the fda warns could be dangerous if medications. The owner of the love ranch. They said roll him on his left side and he started throwing up a lot. Tonight was allowed into the room of the brothel that odom was discovered. The police looked into his things and said they didnt find anything. Reporter the sheriff denied a search warrant was executed. Trevor ariza and other teammates have visited odoms bed didside. Reporter they have been going in to check on lamar but the one thing they are told is talk to him, he can hear you. That is the hope he will hear a voice recognizable and come out of that coma. His two older children were expected here last night and we will have much more information thanks, kevin. In baseball this morning, Toronto Blue Jays have a shot at their first pennant in 22 years. They laemtedeliminated the Texas Rangers last night with a little controversy. Blue jays fans protested a inning. They flu litter on the field. Moments later, the trontsJose Bautista came back with a threerun home run. Its a moment a young fan will never forget.
