Lets go places. Captioning funded by cbs welcome to cbs this morning. We begin this morning with new american air strikes inside syria overnight. A Monitoring Group says the bombing took place along the iraqi border. They are the latest attacks in what the Obama Administration says will be a Long Campaign against isis and the terror group called khorasan. This morning were getting a better idea how successful theyve been. David martin is at the pentagon with the latest details on american action. Good morning. Reporter good morning. U. S. Aircraft continue to fly sy done ssance missions over by monday nights raid, and overnight they spotted an isis stage airing ya near the iraqi border and launched two strikes against it. But there are still plenty of targets left, and the director of operations for the pentagon made clear that the first nights strikes would not be the last. You are seeing the beginnings of a sustained campaign, and strikes like this in the future can be expected. The u. S. And its arab partner launched 128 weapons during a 24hour period. This strike was against an isis training area. Almost all the weapons were precisionguide and most of them were launched by the u. S. The opening sound came from navy ships which launched more than 40 Cruise Missiles against an al qaeda terrorldinke group known as khorasan who launched a safe haven. The way the threat was described, it was probably the most important strike of the night. Weve been watching this group closely for some time. We believe the Khorasan Group was nearing the execution phase of an take either in europe or the homeland. Most of the weapons, however, were fired at isis targets like this compound filled with vehicles. Beforeandafter pictures showed how a satellite bomb took out just the one part of a building that isis was using as kmand center. In another beforeandafter sequence, a Cruise Missile swept a row of satellite dishes off the roof of an isis finance center without appearing to damage the rest of the building. On the Opening Night isis was a sitting duck but Lieutenant General mayville doesnt expect that to last. They are a learned organization, and they will adapt to what weve done and seek to address their shortfalls and gaps against our air campaign in the coming weeks. The first nights strikes almost certainly disrupted the operations of both khorasan and isis, but theres one thing the pentagon has learned over the past 13 years, and that is that air strikes alone will not defeat a terrorist organization. Charlie . David, thanks. In this country federal authorities areng local police to watch out for revenge attacks. Bob orr is tracking the khorasan threat. Good morning. Good morning. U. S. Officials as david martin said believe the air strikes have done considerable damage to the al qaeda cell that was plotting to attack western targets including the u. S. Homeland. The Khorasan Group has been detecting syria. Sources tell us it includes al qaeda explosives experts who have experimented in the past making nonmetallic bombs that can be hidden in things like shoes, cell phones, laptops, even tubes of toothpaste. Zawahiri has also been trying to recruit radicals who have gone to syria. Those people have passports and can more easily sneak bombs aboard u. S. Bound flights. At a minimum the u. S. Has disrupted khorasans plotting and may, in fact, have killed one of the groups key leaders. On twitter its claim thad al fadhli died in one of those bombings. He is on the u. S. List of the most wanted terrorists, but at the very same time the fbi and Homeland Security are out with an intelligence bulletin alerting police air strikes could trigger some kind of retaliation against terrorist sympathizers. The bulletin says we believe these strikes will contribute to homegrow extremists. That source tells us at the moment theres no known specific credible threat to the u. S. Norah . Bob, great reporting. Thank you. And president obama speaks to the u. N. General assembly this morning. He will ask member nations to join the American Coalition against isis. On tuesday the president thanked five arab countries involved in mondays attacks against syria. Margaret brennan is at the u. N. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Today president obama will defend u. N. Strikes in syria and also chair a special session of the security council. Thats a rare move for any u. S. President , and hes doing it to ask the world to cut off the flow of funds and fighters to isis. I just want to say thank you to all of you. President obama began his trip to new york with a victory lap, thanking the five arab countries that helped the u. N. Strike in syria the night before and reminding them that the fight is just beginning. I think we now have an opportunity to send a very clear message that the world is united, that all of us are committed to making sure that we degrade and ultimately destroy not only isil but also the kinds of extremist ideologies that would lead to so much bloodshed. Reporter with new promises of military support from turkey, another key middle eastern country now to join the fight, the administration is pushing the u. N. To might illegal under International Law for any country to allow funds or fighters to flow to extremist groups like isis. The threat of foreign terrorist fighters is very real, and we have to start with the uncomfortable reality that security measures alone will not solve this problem. Reporter the strikes are just a first step to degrade isis. Defeating them on the ground is a job the u. S. Is leaving to the moderate Syrian Rebels and has promise add 500 million pentagon training program. The rebels political leader president hadi al bahra tells us the help is late and inefficient. Where do you need support . We need more advanced weapons like heavy tanks, heavy artillery to combat the heavy weapons they have capture from the irani army itself. Reporter here at the u. N. Theyll ask for help. His fighters are facing an uphill battle. Theyre being asked to fight isis and their number one enemy bash bashar. I interviewed president r rowha rowhani. He says he does not plan to talk to the president. Why not talk to the president while hes in new york and youre in new york. Reporter i did answer this question. Between two nations whom have suffered many problems between one another and to have had great difficulties toward one another, if one day the appropriate foundation hasnt been laid for such a meeting, if the appropriate aim has not been calculated, then it will not be fruitful. So today the conditions do not dictate such a meeting. We do not want to put on a show. Our people do not enjoy a show or theater, and certainly that is also something of the United States want to do that. Nor does the president want to do that. Translator therefore lets let the time mature. Upon during which such talks and such meetings can be fruitful toward resolving problems and issues. Do you believe the present attacks against isis in syria will be successful . You mean the United States . And the other arab countries with the support of the presyrian army. Translator it is not clear for us what theyre seeking, a theater for public consumption or theyre after a tangible, a real objective in the region. s not real Crystal Clear for us but what i can tell you ee kiev cally is no one believes that. They understand that. Thats why theyre focusing on the training of the free syrian army. Syrians to combat the terrorists in their own country. Translator so in other words they want to put more fuel on he existing fire. No. They want to destroy the terrorists. Reporter this is not the way, sir. The way to combat terrorism, sir, is not for us to give birth to another terrorist group in order to stand up against an existing terrorist group. These are the series of mistakes that have composed the rings of the chain that have taken us from where we were to where we are today. We must accept the reality. We cannot organize armed groups of fighters in order to reach our objectives. Rouhani will meet in new york with british Prime Minister cameron. Im confused by one thing which is that iran is close with syria. Yes. There are some people that thank the u. S. Action against isis then helps prop up assad. Indeed. Isis and other groups have been trying to overthrow the syrian government. And if they destroy isis, then there will be less impact. The interesting thing about rowhani is he constantly insists they should not be invading another country. That country happens to be his client. Mmhmm. All right, charlie. Great interview. Thank you.
