outskirts of this city of mosul presumably with the intent of allowing ground troops to be able to then move in and push the militants out of mosul, which is where they ve really been based since june. in other news this week starting on saturday iraqi troops, kurdish forces and also shia militia managed to retake the city that had been undunder siey three months without power, water and very limited supplies. that was very important that they liberated that city on sunday. and then moved forward on monday to the city of which has been a stronghold for the militants, again also since june. so we ve been seeing some important victories for the iraqi forces. what s very interesting is to see that they are fighting the iraqi army, the kurdish peshmerga forces and the shia militia are all cooperating and fighting together against the militants. in other parts of the country we re also seeing the kurdish guerilla group cooperating with peshmerga forces. so the situation is bringing together in different groups. and another development is that sunni tribal leaders have crossed some of the areas under occupation by the militants are starting to turn against the islamic state when initially it s not welcomed them, had not rejected them either. and that s their support will be very important because as the u.s. strikes start to take effect, the islamic state are starting to revert to more guerilla tactics. so we re seeing an number of kar bombs, suicide bombings, road bombings, ieds, that sort of thing. so having support of the locals, the tribal leaders, will help in the push against the militants. you see what has happened to two americans brutally beheaded as they band to threat against a british journalist. you re on the ground. how dangerous do you find your situation there? reporter: honestly, in the kurdish controlled areas it doesn t feel very dangerous. i think what we are going to see increasingly will be more car bombs. we had a bomb here in irbil about ten days ago. and i think we ll probably start seeing more attacks of that sort even within the kurdish areas. in terms of personal safety of westerners, it s a concern and journalists, many oil companies, many foreign companies, have already pulled out their nonessential staff and so on. so people are nervous. but for the time being things here still seem fairly safe. all right. be safe hermoine gee. meanwhile as the president taends the nato summit in wales, the ongoing threat of isis is dominating the headlines. the president along with prime minister david cameron are now calling for a multination coalition against this terror network. fox s own ed henry has the very latest from wales. ed. reporter: sean, this is turning out to be one of the most consequential nato summit in several years because the agenda s already packed with winding down the mission in afghanistan as well as trying to push back on russian president vladimir putin over that crisis in ukraine. and then today the president was actually late for a meeting dealing with ukraine because he was already huddling behind closed doors with jordan s king abdullah trying to build a coalition to deal with isis militarily potentially beyond just iraq and maybe into syria as well. a symbol of just how much isis is overshadowing the rest of the agenda at this already-busy nato summit. the bottom line is the white house went out of its way today to try to insist that david cameron, the british prime minister, is not getting ahead of the president with his more forceful statements about isis raising the british terror threat level. white house say brush that off and say, look, that s because there s so many foreign fighters in iraq, in syria with british passports. the terror threat higher there in britain. but the white house despite that certainly seemed eager to showcase chumminess between the president and prime minister meeting in a school and also a joint op-ed in which they said both nations will not be cowed by these extremists. i pressed the national deputy security advisor about what he would tell the families of the two journalists who have been beheaded about this controversy involving the president first saying he wants to destroy isis and then sort of back peddling and saying, look, this is a problem we can manage over time. listen. how do you tell the families of james foley and steven sotloff, this is a problem that can be managed? well, what the president said was we need to degrade and destroy this organization. in the immediate term you re not going to eradicate a terrorist organization that has taken over parts of two countries without putting in place a coalition. nonetheless there s growing pressure on the president from democrats, not just republicans, to act more quickly. elizabeth warren, the democratic senator from massachusetts ducked a question today about whether she agrees with dianne feinstein and other democrats that the president s been too cautious. and then you have democrat in new hampshire facing a tough re-election against republican scott brown. she basically tweeted out, i don t think that this terror threat could be managed. instead she said we need to follow them to the gates of hell. that s a reference to what vice president biden said at an event yesterday in new hampshire where he was more forceful than the president suggesting there may be a split here developing among democrats about whether the president is acting quickly enough, sean. all right. ed henry with the president. thank you. meanwhile, the anniversary of the september 11 terror attacks is just one week from today. and the intelligence community says they are seeing an increase in terror chatter similar to what occurred before the attacks 13 years ago. fox s own james rosen, he s standing by tonight in washington. he has the details. james. sean,ood evening. senior state department officials caution against connecting these heightened terror levels to the upcoming anniversary of 9/11, but they do not dispute that we are in a period right now of heightened concern about possible terrorist attacks on western homelands. king abdullah of saudi arabia told a reception of foreign ambassadors last week that he is certain that if the jihadists presently wreaking havoc in syria and iraq are neglected, they will reach europe within a month and america a month after that. those comments were particularly arresting because it is so rare for the saudi monarch to speak publicly on the topic. also last week british prime minister david cameron announced his country s joint terrorism analysis center had decided to raise the uk s threat level from substantial to severe, the first time in three years that that level of alarm has been registered by british authorities. u.s. intelligence sources told fox news that was prompted by concerns over foreign fighters returning from the battlefields in syria and in iraq. and then just today the leader of al qaeda and mastermind of the 9/11 attack perhaps fearing a loss of status to isis as the face of global terrorism announced a.q. has opened a new branch office, if you will, on the indian subcontinent. i m not going to characterize the level of chatter in any way. i don t think that s a productive use of doing so publicly. but we re always vigilant. we re always looking for threats. but i don t think these specific comments have been tied to that anniversary. the state department said it has no indications in fact that al qaeda has developed any new capabilities in india. sean. james rosen, thanks. and here with reaction fox strategic analyst colonel ralph peters. how are you? i m fine. always good talking to you, sean. you and i have talked a lot about the disconnect between the administration and the vacations and the lack of urgency that i think is needed at this moment in time. john kerry said the real face of islam is a peaceful religion and then simultaneously said scripture commands the u.s. to protect muslim countries against global warming. my question is are they not getting how dangerous this threat is? there are some that liken this to 1938. would you liken this to 1938, the rise of radical islam? well, certainly somewhere in the 1930s. but look, john kerry doesn t know anything about any religion. he s a member of this pox si elite that doesn t take religion seriously. he s trying to convince me he s read the quran, which i have by the way. i doubt he s read the bible all the way through. one of the fundamental problems we have is these people, these insiders who went to the right prep school and the ivy league universities and social insiders all their lives are governing elite of both parties to a degree. they don t understand the power of faith. i mean, even if islamic state if a terrorist were broke, which they were originally, they would have this passion. and what has been driving them, what has let them roll over the iraqi army that didn t have any passion, didn t have any beliefs, is this power, this force, this transformative fury of faith inflamed, they believe they are on a mission from their god to subject our leaders don t understand blood lust in young men. they don t understand the power of faith. they don t understand how brutal most of the world is. and that s why we have a vacuum of leadership. so let s say the estimate we have 1.6 billion muslims in the world. let s say that that number is right. we always hear about radical islamists, be it islamic jihad, hezbollah, hamas, boko haram, the muslim brotherhood, isis, isil, al qaeda, sunni, shia, they have one common denominator, wipe israel off the map, kill jews and they want this caliphate. and attack the united states. and attack the united states. then you ve got moderate muslims far too many of which their voices are silent either out of fear or maybe some agree silently with those radicals. and then you have a few brave people that will speak out about the hijacking of their religion. why are so many moderate muslims that we hear about so unwilling to take on the hijacking of their religion? well, i think they come in a lot of different flavors. i think some are afraid. certainly if you live in iraq or syria you re afraid. if you re in the united states, i think a lot of successful muslims in the united states don t want any part of any of this. they re embarrassed and want to get on with their lives. look at the profiles of the terrorists we re exporting to the middle east. these aren t this isn t the pediatrician from your local critic clin who i can was educated in pakistan. these tend to be jailbird converts. white guys who decide they re going to do it for allah. so, you know, it s critical not to tar all muslims with this radical brush, but at the same time our president and all the presidents, men and women, need to recognize that in middle eastern islam there is a deep a profound sickness that stems from the collapse of this civilization from basically civilizational incompetence. they re not competitive in any sphere. what has the middle east imported for the rest of the world in the last century? oil and terror. they manufacture nothing. even the quality of the iranian carpets has collapsed. and they re shamed. they re embarrassed. they re angry. and they blame us for their sins. let s look at the role the united states and especially this president there was an article today by ben sharp ro five times obama spoke loudly and carried a tiny stick. and he mentions ukraine, syria, iran, libya and china. five examples. now we have the president saying we have no strategy to deal with isis. then out comes joe biden saying we re going to chase them to the gates of hell. are they really willing to do that? the president, if he s going to get an international coalition and says it s manageable, does that sound like somebody that s willing to chase these people beheading americans involved in a desire for a caliphate to the gates of hell? do you think this president is up for that task? no, of course not. i don t think any democrat really believes it. i don t think debbie wasserman schultz believes he s up to the task. but it s more than modern politics. let s talk about this coalition. remember how the democrats belittled george bush for going it alone in operation iraqi freedom. he had 48 nations behind him, 40 of which contributed military contingents. his father did a brilliant job of building a remarkable coalition for desert storm. now obama well, let s see, bush had a coalition of the willing. let s see if obama has a coalition of the chilling. because i will tell you he is not going to get our allies to step up the way george bush did. he s not going to get neutral states and others in the middle east to step up. why? because they cannot trust obama. he s screwed over the eastern europeans on missile defense to get arms a crappy arms deal with putin. he s bailed on our allies in iraq. he s won nato all over the map in afghanistan. drawn red line after red line never lived up to any of it. won t call an invasion in ukraine an invasion. he won t call a war a war. he won t call islamist terrorists islamist terrorists. this president is a terrified little man in a great big job he can t do. let me ask you, we had phil robertson on the program, he used the term convert them or kill them. got a lot of anger in the liberal media. they either change their ways of beheading innocent people, threatening to wipe israel off the map, attacking america, convert or die philosophy, or we have to adopt a philosophy to kill them. isn t that the only way to deal with them? i don t see any situation under which we can negotiate with people that have that religious fanatical ideology. no, you can t. you can t negotiate with somebody who is on a mission to kill you. 2,000 years of well-documented history radical fanatical insurgencies in every major decision not one has been put down by negotiations or concessions or just being nice. you kill them. and oh by the way, the islamic state terrorist beheading american journalist slaughtering unarmed iraqis by the hundreds, killing iraqi christians, attacking yazidis and killing them and raping and looting, it is unbelievable. and these are the people that the american left doesn t want to waterboard. after vietnam and after we just lost iraq, which 4,000 americans died, shed their blood for, lost limbs for, you know, i ve always had the greatest respect for people like yourself that have served our country. and if i m looking at us giving up all of our gains in iraq, i don t know if i can in good conscience recommend that any american sign up for the military under this leadership. if they risk their blood and treasure and give up their lives only to give it back a year later? i really could not in good conscience recommend people serve under those circumstances. well, i can. first of all, we, the people, didn t lose iraq. our politicians did. obama gave it away. obama gave it away. sean, you got to remember administrations come and go. but by god the u.s. army, the marine corps, the navy and now the air force but if your son dies in iraq and the very city he died fighting for that we won is now given back, are you not a parent saying why? what reason did my son fight here? if we gave it up because politics literally is seeping into military decisions. yeah, the left doesn t like. the military is the foundation that keeps this country safe. totally agree. presidents come and go. but our values, military ethics, the ideals of service, there s never been a coup, never a suggestion of one. we are loyal to the constitution and to the commander in chief as long as he obeys the constitution. and i do you know what i m saying here, right? i do. but i m saying, you know, the military is the one institution we must preserve at all costs because they will see us through the terrible times. we have allowed these people in washington to politicize it. and guys that gave their lives for these cities deserve better than what they have gotten here. of course they do. the u.s. army will outlast this president. all right. colonel, thank you so much. coming up, left wing liberals ratcheting up rhetoric about isis. can you trust them? i don t trust them. they ve cried wolf before. we have the tape to prove it. we ll check in with charles krauthammer next with his analysis. and new reports about how islamic extremists are being radicalized here on u.s. soil radicalized here on u.s. soil and under obama s watch as hi kitty.

[ male announcer ] and introducing qlearquil nighttime, the new allergy medicine for night. qlearquil. powerful sinus and allergy medicine from the makers of vicks nyquil and dayquil. welcome back to hannity. now several democrats are talking tough when it comes to the fight against the isis terror network. take a look. we need to be working now full speed ahead with other countries to destroy isis. that should be our number one priority. as a nation we re united. and when people harm americans, we don t retreat. we don t forget. we take care of those who are grieving. and when that s finished, they should know we will follow them to the gates of hell until they are brought to justice. because hell is where they will reside. well, it s a far cry from the president saying we have no strategy as of yet. now, after the vice president delivered those strong words, well, democratic senator from new hampshire tweeted do not believe isil is manageable, agree these terrorists must be chased to the gates of hell. but can the left s fighting words really be trusted? because years ago prior to the iraq war democrats came out strong regarding the fighting against saddam hussein. you may remember. take a look. it is a vote that says clearly to saddam hussein, this is your last chance. disarm or be disarmed. saddam is dangerous. the world would be a better place without him. for years now he has prevented the united nations inspectors from uncovering those weapons and verifying iraq s disarmament. and, and, he s in violation of the terms he agreed to allowing him to stay in power. here with reaction author of the new york times number one best seller things that matter, fox news contributor dr. charles krauthammer. charles, good to see you, my friend. good to see you. here s my question. they all laid out the case for iraq. and when the going got tough, they politicized the war. as a result president obama was elected. he pulled out, didn t provide intelligence to iraqi troops, didn t provide training, and all those cities that americans fought, bled and died for are now in the hands of this radical group. how can we trust them now at this point? well, look, i think they were responding when they turned against the war to the fact that it was not as quick and clean as they had imagined it might be. and i think it will remain the same. it will remain always. americans don t like protracted wars. the real problem was not that they abandoned the war when the going was tough. the real issue and the thing that history will judge them on is that almost all of those democrats who supported the iraq war then turned against it, remained turned against it when george w. proposed the most courageous decision of his presidency which was the surge. they voted against the surge. they argued against the surge. they even denied the surge was working when it clearly did. and the surge won the war for us. now, obama s the one who unfortunately was unable to manage the victory. he was not able to broker a coalition government. that was his one task in 2010. and then he was not able to manage a status of forces agreement. he threw away the victory. and now we are reaping the results of that terrible decision. threw away a victory where 4,000 americans gave their lives and many others shed their blood. let me play an admonition that george bush gave us warning us, predicting that if we withdrew too soon from iraq exactly what would happen. listen to this. begin withdrawing before our commanders tell us we re ready would be dangerous for iraq, for the region and for the united states. it would mean surrendering the future of iraq to al qaeda. it d mean that we d be risking mass killings on a horrific scale. it would mean we allowed a terrorist to establish a safe haven in iraq to replace the one they lost in afghanistan. it would mean increasing the probability that american troops would have to return at some later date to confront an enemy that is even more dangerous. the only part that is yet to come true is that americans would have to return at a later date to confront an even more dangerous enemy. is he going to be right there as well? well, that depends where obama can come up with a comparably smart strategy to the one we had with the surge. at that point it required american troops on the ground. at this point as of now it does not appear to. we have willing partners on the ground, the kurdish fighters, the iraqi army, at least parts of it, some of the shiite militias and what s left of the free syrian army. and there are other neighbors around the region who might join the fight if they have confidence in the seriousness and the staying power of the american commander in chief, the way for example the neighboring states had confidence in the competence and the staying power of george bush senior when he organized a coalition for the gulf war. in those circumstances we may not have to send ground troops back. we have a very powerful robust air force, very precise. we know what the air force did with a minimal number of troops on the ground supporting the northern alliance in taking over afghanistan. wild, rugged, untamed in a hundred days. so we know what we can do with air force, with special forces, spotters on the ground and the use of local ground forces. can obama replicate that in iraq? i don t know. we ll find out. i don t know how anybody can have confidence when in one week we go from having no strategy at all to chasing them to the gates of hell. i m not confident. i don t see how anyone else could be either. charles, good to see you. thank you. pleasure to be here. and coming up on this busy news night on hannity, a new report that one of isis top social media propagandas may be an american citizen. so our question is this, why is the administration not launching an investigation into home grown islamic extremists? we re going to debate that. and later stick around, brian, peter johnson jr. and mr. clean s grandmother was stronger than people twice her size. and that strength inspired his liquid muscle cleaner. it lifts tough dirt so you do less scrubbing. and it s nozzle stops by itself so less is wasted. sure made grandma proud. mr. clean liquid muscle. remind me to tell her happy anniversary.

[ beep ] oh wow! thanks for the traffic alert. i better get going. now that is a smart phone. oh, wait it s cause you make me smile and she gave me advice. she said, dad, go pro with crest pro-health. [ male announcer ] go pro with crest pro-health. immediately, i felt a difference. it did an extremely good job of cleaning. [ male announcer ] crest pro-health protects all these areas dentists check most. this deep clean was way more than i ever expected. [ male announcer ] 4 out of 5 dentists confirmed these pro-health products helped maintain a professional clean. my daughter inspired me to make a change. crest pro-health really brought my mouth to the next level. welcome back to hannity. now the justice department announced earlier today that they re launching an investigation into the ferguson police department after the shooting death of michael brown. but shouldn t they also be focusing on the serious issue of home grown terrorism right here on american soil? now, just yesterday we told you about abdeer mohamed, an american killed fighting for isis in syria who reportedly held a security clearance at the minneapolis/st. paul international airport. now there are even more disturbing reports of americans working for isis. now, take a look at this abc news report on one high ranking isis member. take a look. this morning u.s. officials tell abc news that one of the key isis social media architects is a one-time american college student from boston, ahmad abousamra now on the fbi s most wanted terrorist list. and also last night nbc news profiled donald morgan and his attempt to join isis. take a look. i purchased the ticket with the intent of entering to syria after joining up with medical and food aid convoys or directly with islamic state. don morgan, now 44, was educated at a military academy, he was a member of the national guard, a deputy sheriff, a bodybuilder, raised catholic in salisbury, north carolina. but does he think he s participating in terrorist activities? based on the definition, yes. here with reaction from the american islam forum for democracy jasser and mike gous with us. let me say to both of you, i think there are three categories. we always hear about the radical islamist, and i do believe that the rise of radical islam is a clear and present danger to the world. then we ve got moderate muslims, too many of which i want to ask you both in my view are silent. very few fit into the category of both you, michael, and you, zudi, that are willing to confront and condemn those that hijack this religion. am i right? yeah. i think absolutely you re right. and the issue is that the reason there appears to be not enough voices is we continue to have this narrative of a violent extremism. and we re not addressing the ideology. i mean, bill gurts reported this week that the fbi s domestic terrorism analysis doesn t even identify islamist threat within its entire report domestically. so this is a problem because of people influencing the president include muslim brotherhood operatives that don t want to deal with a problem, that are part of the global islamist movement that as long as the west stays dumb and naive to islamism as a threat and as long as muslims don t have a seat at the table in reform and muslims like myself are irrelevant. because when you don t diagnose it as islamism that s pulling all of these youth into isis, then you re not going to deal with the problem what percentage of the world s 1.6 billion muslims do you believe are radicalized? well, i think militantwise it s 5% to 10%. but ied logically that are nonviolent but feeding this ideology against the west, i think it s 20%, 30%. we need to better study that. what about and the moderate voices that are silent, michael, there are many of them. is it because they fear the repercussions if they dare to speak out against those hijacking the religion? sean, modern muslims are speaking boldly. not in big numbers, michael. i hate to tell you, you are the exception. zhudi, what do you think? sean, there is an article in the huffington post calls for muslims to denounce okay. how many can you name that are doing it? i have an imam on the program last night wouldn t even admit hamas whose charter says obliterate israel is a terrorist organization. the moderate muslims speaking out, there are plenty of muslims speaking out. i think if the media gives them an opportunity there is enough voices. i get come on. anesthetizing. the reason they don t think there s a voice is because you re not acknowledging we have a problem in our leadership that s in denial and says well, let s just denounce terrorism. but let s not denounce the islamic state that s perpetrated by almost every islamic majority country carries most of the ideology that isis is basically doing frontally in front of the world. zhudi, we do acknowledge that. we have to denounce a lot of things that have come from this area and most islamic countries. last question, are moderate muslims afraid to be labeled apos at a times. and are they afraid of the radicals that if they speak out they too will become targets of jihad or holy war or viewed as apostates. that s exactly what happens, sean. we are told we are somehow not muslims because we don t believe in the unification of the and that ultimately this is what happens in states like saudi arabia and iran. american groups are silent. they re not taking on these ideas. they simply denounce it. they don t talk about solutions of passages that we need to re-interpret in the quran, passages that need to be dismissed and are not consistent with ma dernty. unfortunately it s just these anesthetics and that we get from most organizations. zuhdi, there is an article in the huffington post last week nobody reads the huffington post, mike. that s hardly the vast majority of moderate muslims speaking out against radicalism. they do, sean. in fact, i have a 6.7 million followers that read my stuff. muslims all around michael, i give you credit. and i bet you ve gotten death threats over even coming on this show. actually, i got death threats from christians coming on your show than muslims. mike, the real action would not be speaking against the whacko groups like isis that are obviously radical, but speaking against the ideas that fuel them out of saudi arabia, the fuels of the font of radicalism comes from these core ideologies that nobody wants to confront. thank you, guys. i m out of time. sorry about that. thank you both. good to see you. coming up, left wing nbc news don schultz goes after phil robertson from duck dynasty. when we continue. (woman) the constipation and belly pain feel tight like a vise. how can i ease this pain? (man) when i can t go, it s like rocks piling up. i wish i could find some relief. (announcer) ask your doctor about linzess a once-daily capsule for adults with ibs with constipation or chronic idiopathic constipation. linzess is thought to help calm pain-sensing nerves and accelerate bowel movements. it helps you proactively manage your symptoms. do not give linzess to children under 6, and it should not be given to children 6 to 17. it may harm them. don t take linzess if you have a bowel blockage. get immediate help if you develop unusual or severe stomach pain especially with bloody or black stools. the most common side effect is diarrhea, sometimes severe. if it s severe, stop taking linzess and call your doctor right away. other side effects include, gas, stomach-area pain and swelling. bottom line, ask your doctor about linzess today. c there s never been a better time to come to bass pro shops than right now. announcer: bass pro shops is the place for incredible savings. like your choice of bass pro hats for only $5. and this she outdoor vintage camo hoodie for under $30. so i m going pro.

changing change your ideology or they will die. that s the right attitude for the country to have. and if you watch your whole show, if you watch the whole segment, he s totally taking you out of context. so if he wants everyone to say, phil robertson wants all muslims to convert or die. that s not what happened. the extremist element that are torturing people and beheading that killed two american journalists, you can either convert or die. we know they prefer to die. they want to die in battle. that s why they re provoking us into this conflict one time again. don t you agree with what he said? that these radicals need to have a clear, unambiguous message. if you do this, if you continue, you will die. you would agree with that? yes. and i would agree isis is a major problem not just in this country but abroad. and our president has done nothing or just a little bit say that again? i know. the president has done very little to teach the american people, to talk to the american people and to be very vocal and say isis is bad, they re wrong and we are going to go after them. they ve beheaded two americans and killing innocent people. they said we didn t have a strategy caused joe biden to go out and say we ll chase them to the gates of hell. pretty confusing message. well, there is no real message because the president came out sounding like an auditor, an accountant. this incremental small-minded little step, we re going to push them back, we re going to isolate them. what about destroying them? oh, yeah, at the same time make it a manageable problem. can t be a manageable problem and destroy at the same time. it s one or the other. by the way you coordinated on ties. it looks good. he s a trumpian. okay. you got trump too? yeah, absolutely. mine is gold. i will say there s a problem between the secretary of defense, the president and i think the intelligence bureaus. we ll have more who s more excited about back to school savings at staples? the moms? or the dads? with guaranteed low prices on mechanical pencils, it s definitely the dads. staples. make more happen for less. and she gave me advice. she said, dad, go pro with crest pro-health.

their homes. i want to bring in nn pentagon correspondent, brash are a starr. she s on the phone now. president obama has said that what are these strike teams designed to do. well, what we re talking about here is the department of health and human services as we said to the pentagon, we may need help. the pentagon responded and now has is in the process of assembling. some are calling it a quick strike team. some are calling it a rapid response team. this is the team for the first time of military medical professionals. it will go to houston, texas, get trained up within the next couple of days, and be ready to deploy the team, 30 people, is going to be made up of 20 and five so-called trainers. people in the military who are very highly trained. a personal protective equipment, how do you compliant with the procedures so it helps workers that are protected in more cases erupt from health care workers getting the virus. they are to be ready to deploy. for the first time now we have people traveling to west africa, and for the fitter first time now we re seeing things being put in place for military personnel to help here in the united states if and when they get ordered to go. debra. barbara, these five doctors, 20 nurses, and these affected compliance trainers, have they been trained to work together? this is just all really emerged in the last hour or so. my sources say they will go to this military base in texas. very rapidly they re identifying the people now. they will get trained up. they will very quickly learn to work together as a team. that is what the u.s. military does. this country really hasn t dealt with this sort of issue recently at least, and so everybody is a little bit learning on the job. the military has one critical advantage, which is people will tell you is if this erupts into a full-blown crisis, they can assemble large numbers of personnel equipment, aircraft, medical capability, and move it anywhere in the country very quickly that it might be needed. it s the one part of the united states government that can just really respond very, very quickly, and so they hope they re not going to get called into action, but they will be ready to go if they do. yeah. absolutely. it s sort of a very big if. if more cases are diagnosed, the equivalent effectively of military boots on the ground, but, barbara, is there any suggestion as to where these doctors and nurses would operate out of? would they be given hospital privileges, for example? would they work in tan dem with doctors who are treating individuals? is this about quarantine? have they given you any further i know it s just new, and are you breaking this news on our air. is there any specifics or logistics of how this works, what it looks like? well, all i can tell you is legally in the united states the united states military, the active duty force, always if they are called to do something in the united states, legally they are always in support of civilian authorities, whether it s a city that may be having a flood or a state that s fighting a wildfire, or a medical crisis that the federal government and state governments are trying to fight, so they will be in support of civilian medical authority. they will go if they are ordered, they ll go where they re asked to go. there s no military marshall law in play here. we don t know how all those issues will be worked out. what we do know is over the last several days the president has been meeting with his advisors. all the portions of the federal governme government. obviously adding a new and additional layer of peace of mind to a public, very skittish as it is. barbara starr, thanks for breaking that news for us. we appreciate that. and a cruise ship carrying a passenger who may have had contact with ebola. that cruise ship now back in texas after police in mexico said, no, i would not allow it to dock in their countries. cnn s alina joins us now from dallas. the passenger is a dallas hospital lab worker. she was a supervisor. she may have had contact with the test samples from the man, thomas eric duncan, first person to be diagnosed and die from ebola here in the u.s. she did spend most of her vacation in isolation. what are you learning now about what happened, when that cruise ship arrived, and where she s at? well, we know shs, as you mentioned, now back in texas after the cruise ship, the carnival magic, arrived a few hours ago. according to galveston county health officials, the woman and her travel partner did not have any restrictions when they were getting off that ship for two reasons. number one, because she did not have any symptoms of an active ebola infection and because of some blood tests that were conducted by the state. dwoent know what the results of those blood tests are, but based on the fact that they didn t put any restrictions on her, we can assume they re negative for any ebola infection. it s worth mentioning this woman is among the 48 people whose 21-day monitoring period is expected to end by midnight tonight. texas health resources issued an apology, an open letter, to the community the discovery said the two nurses complied with the cdc guidelines. what is going on here both with the apology and what the cruise ship is saying? well, the apology was published in the paper this morning. i want to get right to part of that statement. it says based on what we already know, i can tell you that many of the theories and allegations being presented in the media do not align with facts stated in the medical record and the accounts of care gives who were present on the scene. we have remained xhiltd committed to complying with cdc guideline from the start. they comply with the cdc guidelines and implemented them diligently and we now know new guidelines are expected to be issued very, very soon. alina for us there in texas. thank you so much. we ll check in with you a little while again. now to some potentially devastating news for the family and friends of missing university of virginia student, hannah graham. 35 days after the 18-year-old graham was last seen in downtown charlottesville, police from nearby chesterfield county have found human remains on an abandoned property that was about eight miles away from where she disappeared. gene casarez joins me. forensic tests must still be done, but we understand that her mom and dad have been told about the discovery and that police have called off the search for hannah. why do they believe it is this young woman? they are want publically saying they believe it s hannah graham, but as i say, let s look at the facts, and those facts that you just said, i think, speak volumes. let me tell you what s happening today. this is a very active crime scene in this area. we understand 25 officials are down in this area where remains were found combing the area for any official evidence. one of our photojournalists, ashley, saw a rake being used, which is not uncommon in a scene like this. especially when you have skeletal remains, because the evidence, the potential evidence, can be very fine, very small, so a rake can pick it up or even a sift. now, we ve been told by law enforcement that this active crime scene will keep going for at least the next couple of days, but the question is what is the identification of those remains? we do know that the chief medical examiner, which is found in richmond, virginia, that his office will be receiving the remains. they will do the autopsy. i think a lot of questions remain, though. we can find no confirmation of when that autopsy will be done and will they be bringing in a forensic anthropologist because many times that is done when you have a skeletal. have police now labelled this an actual murder investigation? clearly, whenever you find human remains, you ve got a little bit more closely, so is that sort of a self-answering question, actually, gene? it is technically a death investigation. that s my point right there. when you find a skeletal remain, if you think logically, it could be done by someone else, which is a homicide. it could be a suicide. now, if this is hannah graham, dwoent think it s anything like that. the medical examiner will be trying to find out the cause of death, which then can help determine there was no hair attached, and he also department see any blunt force trauma to the skeleton. of course, that really needs to be determined by the experts at the medical examiner s office. . thank you so much. we know you re going to have a lot more for us a little later on. we appreciate that. our next guest says the obama administration, we ll ask congressman marshall blackburn. when folks think about what they get from alaska, they think salmon and energy. but the energy bp produces up here creates something else as well: jobs all over america. engineering and innovation jobs. advanced safety systems & technology. shipping and manufacturing. across the united states, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. when we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. that s not a coincidence. it s one more part of our commitment to america. so i can reach ally bank 24/7, but there are24/7branches?

[ alex ] transamerica helped provide a lifetime of retirement income. so i can focus on what matters most. [ female announcer ] everyone has a moment when tomorrow becomes real. transamerica. we just told thaw the pentagon is creating a rapid response team. a quick strike team to respond to ebola here in america. my next guest says that this is simply proof that the obama administration has mishandled the crisis from the beginning. joining us now is republican congresswoman marcia blackburn of tennessee. congresswoman, thank you so much. we want to know what your take is about the news that we just broke here on these new quick strike teams. what do you believe? well, i give them credit for taking the step. i do think that it proves that, first of all, they did not have a plan and, secondly, since they didn t have a plan, they didn t know what the implementation would be and the bureaucracy is so bloated that they can t figure out how to get that plan in place. i give them credit for realizing that, and i m certain that you re going to see d.o.d. and the medical team, the d.o.d. medical team take charge of this and have a great team to deploy in helping our nation s hospitals on getting up to speed on how to handle this. they play a support tiff role in all of this. that s correct. what you are saying, though, is to suggest that the appointment of a new ebola tsar, in fact, a manager, as is being described, could effectively coordinate u.s. efforts more sufficiently to calm the panic. i m disappointed that we have a spin master, and not someone who is a health care professional or an emergency response professional handling this. i think his only emergency response was the bush-gore recount in 2000, and i think that as i ve talked to constituents and as i have talked to health care professionals, they re deeply disappointed. they would have loved to have seen someone like the swren who did such a good job after katrina, or former senator bill frisk who is a physician in his work to end the affected region in africa as well as having been a u.s. senator, knowing government resources to coordinate this. someone who has skillsets, debra, in each of these components that have to be brought together in order to handle this. we know in order to deal with this, you have to isolate it, and the best place to isolate it is there in west africa. so let s talk about that, congresswoman. you are on the record questioning the wisdom, however, of sending troops to these ebola impacted countries, so if you want to isolate it in liberia, why not throw your full support behind these troops helping out this devastated region? i have 1,500 troops that are going to be deploying from fort campbell, so we re going to stand with them completely and totally and fully support them in their efforts. we re very concerned about how they re going to move forward through this. i have found it interesting that d.o.d. is going to quarantine them for 21 days there before they return here. i have recommended that we quarantine anyone wanting to leave. the three countries in the affected area there before they re allowed to fly to the u.s. have something similar to a forward operating base, and citizens from guinea and sierra leone and liberia who want to exit those countries and have a visa would put themselves into quarantine at a facility before they exit the country. i think that would be the right thing to do. so just to summarize that, then, nafrlt, you do stand behind travel bans, yes? absolutely, i support travel bans, and i support a quarantine. congresswoman marshall blackburn, we appreciate your time. thank you so much. well, stick around. congresswoman karen bass will join us to explain why she thinks u.s. troops actually should be giving direct care of ebola patients in liberia. congresswoman bass is next. ifyi. goal is to grow. gotta get greater growth. i just talked to ups. they got expert advise, special discounts, new technologies. like smart pick ups. they ll only show up when you print a label and it s automatic. we save time and money. time? money? time and money. awesome. awesome! awesome! awesome! awesome! (all) awesome! i love logistics. they all lost their lives because of preventable medical errors, now the third leading cause of death. only heart disease and cancer take more lives. proposition 46 will save lives with drug and alcohol testing to make sure impaired doctors don t treat someone you love. safeguards against prescription drug abuse. and holds the medical industry accountable for mistakes. i m barbara boxer. let s save lives. vote yes on 46. just before the break you heard congressman marcia blackburn say right here that she s concerned about the safety of u.s. troops that the administration is sending to the center of the ebola outbreak. my next guest sent a letter to the white house saying that, in fact, our troops with medical training do need to provide direct care, one-on-one, to ebola patients. democratic congresswoman karen bass joins me now from washington. thank you so much, congresswoman. first of all, why do you believe in this direct engagement that perhaps opens up our u.s. troops to risk? well, you know what, i think the announcement of the strike teams is exactly what we were referring to. the idea of having teams on the ground. i will tell you that we actually already do and who we have on the ground now, i think, is good. their public health service officers that are doing direct care because if we are concerned about ebola coming here, the way to stop it is for there to be a massive effort and intervention in the countries of origin. on friday i spoke to the president of liberia, president surleaf johnson. she told me the situation is getting better, and she was satisfied with where the u.s. response was now, so i think that we need to continue doing what we re doing, and i was very pleased to hear about the strike teams in the united states. it s fascinating because so many people have demonized thomas eric duncan, the first man who came with ebola to the united states. had he not come, the level of response clearly would not be where it s at, but let s talk about training. are american military personnel sufficiently trained and sufficiently qualified to really handle this outbreak that is raging through west africa. i have full confidence that the teams that are there on the grouped now have the training. i don t believe they would have been sent in without that, so, again, we do have people there now helping. when i spoke to president johnson a month ago, what she told me that was desperately needed was health care workers because we have to remember that the full focus in liberia has been on ebola and so the general health system, if you were going deliver a baby or you have malaria or anything else, was pretty much collapsed, and they really needed health care workers. now what is happening is the african union are sending people, and so there are, i m sure, more are needed, but there are teams that are going now. u.s. having sent some 4,000 treepz every troops plus $400 million in aid, which is rather remarkable. these strike teams the president has put together to go to different cities in america, should there be more than one case, and we haven t seen more than a handful of cases to be clear, but you believe this is more an effort to calm the growing panic, or do you think this is a reasonable response as the administration grapples to sort of redefine how it is reacting to this. well, i think it s an excellent response because there is the potential for additional cases, and i think if we are very aggressive, you know, and we should feel confident in our health care system, but as you heard, many times from many different nurses, they re concerned about being adequately trained, and the idea that we have a strike force to enter into a city in a hospital right away, i think it s an excellent idea, it s an excellent response. i have the compliance trainers, which is also very good to make sure that not a speck, not a spot of blood, nothing that could potentially contaminate somebody else is there during the during process. congresswoman karen bass, thank you for your time this afternoon. thanks for having me on. and president obama hosting another ebola meeting at the white house. the one key player was missing. ron klain, the new so-called ebola czar. at t-mobile, you can hook up the whole family for a $100 a month. get 4 lines with unlimited talk, text, and up to 10 gigabytes of 4g lte data. and now the next big thing is here. get the hottest device for everybody in the family for $0 down. .so you can switch today. welcome back. i m debra. thomas eric duncan, a memorial service was held this week for duncan in salisbury, north carolina, where his mother lives. he was the first ebola case to be diagnosed in the united states. the 42-year-old liberian man came to dallas to visit his fiance. she and three relatives have been in quarantine. that quarantine ends tonight at midnight. . president obama had a high level meeting at the white house last night. who was at the meeting? who was not? what did they accomplish? deb, ron klain, who is the newly named so-called ebola czar, was not at the meeting. he was at the white house yesterday afternoon late in the afternoon for some other meetings, but at this particular meeting the vice president was in attendance as well as health and human services secretary sylvia burwell. the omb director, jay johnson, the secretary of homeland security, sean donovan, the director of the office of administration and budget. dr. tom frieden, the director of the cdc, and a number of advisors to president obama and at this meeting they detailed for him the contact tracing method that is have been used as far as dallas is concerned as well as the other national measures that they are taking in order to insure that a situation like dallas does not happen again, deb. so today on cnn s state of the union with candy crowley, senator ted cruise demanded that the president ban flights from countries hit hard by ebola. let s take a listen. it s the first argument about the screens doesn t make sense because they don t work during the 21-day incubation period, and the second argument that they make is they say a travel ban would prevent health care relief workers from arriving in west africa. no one is talking about banning flights into west africa. of course, physicians and nurses and health care workers should be allowed to go in there and we can send them on charter flights or military c-130 aircraft with appropriate safety precautions. that s very different from saying commercial airliners should fly day after day after day with hundreds of passengers connecting with thousands of passengers coming all throughout the country. the arguments they re giving don t make sense. well, the white house feels very differently. they don t believe a travel ban will help. what is the administration s thinking? well, first, deb, let me point out that ted cruise is not the only person who is calling for a travel ban. there are a number of republican governors, senators, and others as well as democrats also calling for this travel ban, and that is something that ron klain is going to have to deal with, and in easing all of these fears and saying why they don t want a travel ban, and the reason that the white house is giving is essentially that people who are in the countries that are affected in west africa may be able to make it to the united states more easily with a travel ban because they could simply sneak into other countries and evade screenings that way. at least if they come in legitimately through the u.s. people know where they are and who they are. all right. erin, appreciate that. thank you. crews are calling off their search for missing uva student hannah graham after a new and troubling discovery. a forensic scientist, a former assistant secretary of the fbi analyzed this case next. he didn t like grass at all. people asked me about grass, when i first went over there, i hated wimbledon. i hated the surface. i loved women done, what it meant, but the surface, i was uncomfortable. didn t like the bad bounces. by 1992, 1993 came around, i really felt comfortable. i was the owner of the place for about seven, eight years. what do you teach these kids?

well, they re going to wait up until they have an official identification which will happen at the medical examiner s office. probably will require dental records to be specific, but at this point the police do not name the person. nor do they call it a murder investigation or a suicide. it s a death investigation until the medical examiner declares that the victim was murdered. and, larry, we heard earlier jean casarez who was there on site saying she saw investigators combing through the surroundings with what appeared to be a rake. what kind of forensic evidence could they find there at that scene if, in fact, it is hannah graham? well, first of all, you have a person who was missing for 35 days. my best guess is she is totally skeletonized, which tells me they will probably have difficulty determining the actual cause of death unless there is gunshot or something that has affected the skeleton. they will also be looking at trace evidence in the soil, and that will include a possible weapon. there is much to be found not only in the body itself, but everything that surrounds it. that search will be thorough. the anthropologists already know it s probably her because they have a relatively new skeleton. they know the height. they know the gender. they know the ethnicity. just based on looking at skeletal remains. they already know this is most likely hannah. and, tom, how do you retrace this particular disappearance now that investigators know perhaps where she is, if it s her. how do you go about now pinpointing how she got from point a to point b? who may have seen her? who are they going to look to question? what more surveillance tape are they going to try to affect? how would you piece this together? well, first of all, you ll do everything you just mentioned, and still try to find witnesses that may have seen her being driven by jesse matthew or some other person or seen them on the side of the road or saw the vehicle that he was in that night. those kind of efforts could continue. her cell phone could be a gold mine. last question to you. other evidence. is there the possibility she could have hair or skin or something under her fingernails that suggests that there was some sort of a struggle? absolutely. having tissue under the fingernails would do it, even after 35 days. there may be trace evidence of finding the suspect s hair on or around the body and that would essential do it. her parents said they just wanted to know where she was and what happened to her. sadly, they may have just gotten their answer. larry, tom, thank you. thank you. up next, texas health presbyterian hospital sent thomas duncan home when he showed up with ebola-like symptoms. turns out that s not the first time the dallas hospital has gotten in trouble for patient riyadh missions. details straight ahead.

[ male announcer ] join the scientists and engineers of exxonmobil in inspiring america s future engineers. energy lives here. have you probably given it little thought. travel bans from west africa to the united states. calls from some lawmakers are fwegt louder even though president obama opposes the travel ban. the director of the national institute of allergen and infectious diseases, dr. anthony is also against a ban. cnn s candy crowley asked him today about concern for republicans that doctors are not recommend it simply because the president doesn t support it. that s just not the case. i ve never had an experience where a president is telling me to tell him something that he wants to hear. the president and the health officials, sylvia burwell and others, ask you what no pressure? none at all. they re just asking what is your opinion about this? that s the reason why we give the opinion. we express the we respect the opposing opinion, but what was just articulated by senator cruise, the fact is it would be very, very difficult if you lost control of easily tracking people. you got to look at the numbers. to look at how many people are really trying to fwet into the country. you know, 36,000 people in two months went to airports to get out of the those three countries. 77 were blocked because of a health issue. when they investigated them, none of them had ebola. a lot of them had malaria. there s not a lot of people trying to get into the country. nina pham, she s under the care at n.i.h. how is she doing? she s doing fine. her condition is fair. she is stable. she s resting comfortably. ebola really knocks you out. i had a very long conversation with her. she s a lovely young lady. i think when the world gets to see her, we hope she will be out and will walk out of the hospital with her, you ll see what i m talking about. she s doing fine. you are using, if we understand reading the press releases, about ten doctors and nurses to treat nina. dr. rick davie is in the room with her. we have four or five nurses. they change shifts. if things have a problem where we have to do a lot more intensive things, we ll switch it to eight-hour shifts and bring more people in. why then did it take 70 folks at the dallas hospital to treat an ebola patient? mr. duncan, who, unfortunately i think there were a lot of people, technicians coming in, going out of the room and getting samples and things like that. we have at the n.i.h. a very specifically equipped, trained, experienced people who are specifically dedicated only to that type of a situation. that s why it s different. he also said today that there does need to be more medical units in the united states, equipped and properly trained to handle all ebola patients. frontier airlines says it s contacting up to 800 passengers that may be linked flights she took. vincent is the second nurse diagnosed with the disease after treating patients thomas eric duncan. frontier says that the risk to passengers is extremely low, and they re telling passengers to contact the cdc if they have any concerns. our concern really is the safety of first our passengers and all of our employees. i think to the extent that, you know, we are always protecting and looking out for the safety of our passengers and employees, we are certainly concerned, and we ve been very proactive. frontier airlines has taken that plane out of the air temporarily. the story is now tarnished by the mistakes made in the handling of its ebola patients. texas health presbyterian even lost federal funds in the past for patient riyadh missions. riyadh mission is a problem for all hospitals. in fact, since 2012 the centers for medicare and medicaid services have cracked down on this problem with penalties. presbyterian of dallas has been fined for the past three years in a row, but these fees don t impact the hospital s bottom line. the real problem is the financial hit it s taking currently. since mishandling an ebola patient, the hospital has closed down its emergency room. a significant source of revenue. there are also reducks in other areas and is reportedly two-thirds empty. it s the largest in north texas, operating 25 hospitals. all together they generate $4 billion in revenue. 17% alone comes from presbyterian of dallas. texas health is well funded in the short-term, so if presbyterian of dallas suffers financially or even worst case, an area shuts down, it won t be the end for a parent company. right now, though, there are no active discussions of a shutdown. deb. all right. christine, thank you so much. startling figures there. still ahead, a night of family fun turns into terror when rioting breaks out at a pumpkin festival. a pumpkin festival. who police say is to blame. coming up straight ahead.

french officials, if awlaki did mastermind investigators trying to investigate the claims made in the video. the interesting part is they don t claim coulibaly, who gave allegiance to isis he attacked the kosher grocery store. intimations of al qaeda in the arabian peninsula. perhaps trying to claim more of the spotlight of aqap. one question if the brothers if one of the brothers did use the other brother s passport was that possible just because they looked alike? they do look comparatively similar. obviously you have to ask yourself quite what level of scrutiny is given of border crossings, when someone does something like that the issue being that the younger brother may have used the older s passport. said had made multiple trips to yemen, starting in 2009. the underwear bomber who tried to blow himself up in christmas 2009 on a plane to detroit. said had been to yemen many times, perhaps potentially that made it easier maybe had a multi-entry visa for cherif to use his passport to go in. so many dots to connect in the aftermath. nick payton walsh, thank you. the new issue of charlie hebdo on sale quickly selling out around paris, one week to the day after masked terrorists tried to silence the exercise of free expression. new video captures the attackers moments after the massacre at charlie hebdo. the now-dead brothers are seen celebrating on the street a mere reflection of their depravity. look at the calm the he s of the weapon and their know-how just before opening fire on police this is a window into the threat that foreign training provides let s get more from john berman live in paris, good morning, john. good morning, chris, were you standing right where i am right now. and the video depicts this area not even 100 yards behind me. so it is eerie to see those pictures that dramatic new view. the new issue of charlie hebdo on the stands we went to newsstands all around the city we couldn t get our hands on one. there are lines of 100 people at the newsstands everyone being turned away all the issues all the copies were presold, there s that much interest. and today, more than any day i ve seen yet, there s an enormous security presence on the streets. even before the news that al qaeda in the arabian peninsula taking credit for the attacks, perhaps having to do with the release of the new issue of charlie hebdo with the prophet mohammed on the cover again today. chilling new video captures terrorists cherif and said kouachi, moments after they carried out the horrific attack on the offices of charlie hebdo. the video reveals one of the terrorists shouting we have avenged the prophet mohammed. just outside the magazine s offices. the gunmen reload their automatic weapons before slipping into their getaway car and start driving down a narrow road. lights flashing a police cruiser blocks their path. the hooded gunmen get out of their car and open fire. they re cold-blooded killers, they re calm cool collected. they go about their business. that just shows you what we are up against. hours later, the brothers rob a gas station 50 miles northeast of paris. these surveillance images show what appears to be an rpg, rocket-propelled launcher strapped to the side of the brothers as they steal gas and food. how they held their weapons, suggested that they had some kind of formal training. it was known that the older brother, cherif moved in jihadist circles. in 2008 he went on trial for his involvement in a network smuggling islamist fighters to iraq. in this newly uncovered video from the moments just after his conviction cherif tells a reporter quote, we are just young kids from the suburbs, that is all, we get passionate we talk like this but there is nothing more. investigators are now taking a look at the money trail, trying to find out how the brothers financed their trips to yemen and how the terrorists got their high-powered weapons. what we ve been able to accumulate over the last six days sarksis a tremendous amount of data. three million copies of charlie hebdo s new issue hit the newsstands this morning. already sold out at markets across paris. prior to the release, one of the surviving cartoonists known as luze held a press conference at times, his emotions overwhelmed him. reflecting on the motive behind the bloodshed, luze said the terrorists were once kids, they drew like us then one day they perhaps lost their sense of humor, perhaps their child soul. john berman stick around with us we want to bring in cnn law enforcement analyst and former fbi assistant director tom fuentes, to give us more analysis. tom, let s talk about the video, the new home video that s emerged of these two gunmen in the moments, basically this is their getaway video. tell us as an investigator what you see in this video as the kouachi brothers are yelling, following the massacre? alisyn the appearance of that when i first saw it was they ve just shot two dozen people killing more than half of them and then they re out in the street basically celebrating in the end zone. holding up their finger one, which usually means one god, allah, in terrorist circles. but calmly reloading the one gun, checking it fixing if it has a malfunction, handing it back to the brother who gets in the passenger side. and they gather their equipment get in the car, start to drive. then they re confronted with the other police car. calmly get back out of their car, open fire cause that car to back up. the police officer to retreat, who is severely outgunned and obviously has bullets coming through his windshield. and that squad car backs up until it backs into a car on the cross street at the end of the street. but just the cold-blooded business-like manner that they conduct themselves is chilling. so tom, exactly. what does this tell you, about who they are and how they were trained. are they just hopped up on adrenaline here? or is there more? i think they re just dedicated in their mind to their cause and i think that you know when they get, when these individuals get this training and this is the fear of the foreign fighters coming home. whether it s our country or any of the european canada australia, other countries, the fear is that they get programmed to do something, like this. and like human drones they get dispatched. and you don t know when they re going to strike. they don t know if it s going to be next year or three years or five years. and most services can t watch them forever. i mean it s coming up that this is part of a huge network that you know should have had more coverage. but that s kind of the nature of this. i think that you know when you talk about connecting the dots. this goes back it precedes isis it precedes even the main body of al qaeda in the arabian peninsula. this goes back to bin laden in 2001 plot which was simultaneously as the plot was being prepared to attack us on 9/11 there was a simultaneous plot in al qaeda units within seven european countries, including france to bomb the u.s. embassy in paris, the same week as our 9/11 attack and to bomb a nato facility in brussels and a few other sites in europe. it was thwarted by the authorities with work together the various intelligence services law enforcement, the fbi was involved. in thwarting that attack. but what happened is when the dozen arrests or so were made it was made our 9/11 attack had just happened a couple days earlier. so you know obviously no one knew in this country because of the coverage of our own 9/11 attack but that was a huge thing. many of the subjects were put on trial in belgium. in paris. including jamal gamal, one of the main coordinators of that. as i recall i don t think any of the dozen or so people convicted in the multiple countries even got more than ten years. so basically all of these terrorists are back out. it s what a context you ve just given us. john, from your time on the ground there, what have you learned about their background and what led up to this attack in terms of the money and the planning for these brothers? well authorities here all wait up to the prime minister say based on what they have seen, they believe they must have had accomplices, they re talking about both the kouachi brothers and amedy coulibaly, who staged the attack on the supermarket. the operational planning the financing. a lot of focus now on where they got the money for the guns and their weaponry. there s some disparity about how much money it would have taken. i ve been told by security sources that kalishnakov rifles have been readily available sips the wars in yugoslavia since the war in europe it could take 500 to 1,000, to 2,000 euros to get them. they apparently had quite an arsenal and quite a high level of ammunition as well. in the sources that i talked to also point out look at the web that is being weaved right now as they trace the contacts with the various people involved in these attacks. you have the girlfriend of amedy coulibaly now believed to be in syria. she was at the border in turkey with a man who they think may have contacts with jihadist groups in afghanistan and pakistan. plus you have this man we just learned about yesterday, arrested in bulgaria believed to have had contacts with the kouachi brothers prior to the attacks. he was arrested there on january 1st. so you can see this web getting bigger and bigger and bigger in here. that s why the security presence has been boosted so visibly today. because they just can t rule out the possibility there could be more people in this city in this country planning an attack. there are so many threads to this web. as you say, john berman tom fuentes, thanks for the background, we ll check back in with you throughout the show. you have all of these different leads in terms of individuals to track down. you also have different groups to deal with al qaeda in yemen saying paris was us. and now you have its larger affiliate, al qaeda in the arabian peninsula. aqap releasing a how-to guide for making bombs, using items typically found in an ordinary kitchen. that has security at airports in the united states stepped up in a big way. it s not known how effective additional screening will be but it s going to cause major travel delays for millions of americans. renney marsh joins us live from reagan national airport with more. you know at u.s. airports across the country, passengers can expect random checks that could include swabbing of the hands, they should also expect random luggage checks. all of this could happen even after you have passed through security and have made it to the gate. again we re live here at reagan. this all comes after concerns that terror groups have the ability to essentially create hard-to-detect explosives. the heightened measures come after aqap clad in theal qaeda in the arabian peninsula. they publish in their latest issue of inspire magazine a how-to guide to make household bombs. the concern is that the nonmetallic ieds or certain explosives can get through airport screeners, specifically metal detectors. so the security concern, body scanners can detect these sort of splosives, metal detectors can not there are smaller airports that only have metal detectors. back to you. rene thank you very much. let s head over to michaela with more. we begin with a bizarre story, the fuselage actually we ve changed stories, the fuselage of airasia flight 8501 has been found. that s confirmed by indonesian officials who say they have an underwater photo. also report they have successfully downloaded the contents of both the cockpit voice recorder and the flight data recorder from airasia flight 8501. officials expect preliminary report on cause of the crash to be released in the next few weeks. an alleged plot to kill house speaker john boehner by either poisoning him or shooting him. the former bartender, a former bartender, this man, 44-year-old michael hoyt is now undergoing a mental examination, the charges he planned to murder the speaker after being fired from his job at a country club in october. north korea denying any involvement in the mass i have been cyberattack at sony. the north korean ambassador is demanding the u.s. provide evidence. the white house hit north korea with new sanctions this month after the fbi said the country hacked into the movie studio s computer system. and the ambassador went on to say north korea will participate into a joint investigation into the hacking scandal if the u.s. agrees. if you re counting on a tax refund the irs says you might have to wait longer to get it. the reason? budget cuts in a memo to staff, irs commissioner said people who file paper tax returns may need to wait an extra week or more. same goes for filers with issues or any questions that might require a review. don t worry if all of this tax talk stresses you out. that s bit of a silver lining. the cuts mean fewer audits a bizarre kind of silver lining. a silver lining nonetheless. you found the gud stuff in there. they audit a very small number of people. a lot people get refunds. the big reason is this takes time to go through paper and they use software to go through the e-filings, so it s going to be much faster. i know you have to change everybody has habits but it s something worth thinking about. michaela thanks so much. severe weather in the forecast freezing rain targeting the mid-atlantic and the south with snow in the southern rockies making this morning s commute a mess for millions of people. let s get the latest from meteorologist chad myers, how is it looking? well i-95 and i-64 don t look that good. certainly slick spots all the way through. it did have an ice event there overnight from raleigh up through the triad, into the north that s where the ice was, here s where it s going now. even light snow in d.c. you ll see some flakes on the ground there. it may be even around the beltway, could have a slick bridge or overpass most of the icing event happened down here across the carolinas, all the way from about charlotte north there have to raleigh. a thin glaze of ice still possible on the roads from north of hampton roads, still snow from about fredericksburg over to salisbury, maryland. it is still 7 in detroit. 5 in chicago and 18 in new york. and we re talking about the big warm-up. well here s drumroll please the big warmer air. how much warmer?

what s the reaction of the world? let s get to paris and bring in cnn senior international correspondent arwa damon and brian stelter, brian, i ll start with you. fresh on shelves, we understand it sold out. you had a chance to look lieuthrough it. what s in it and what s the reaction? i haven t gotten a print copy. it seems to be sold out everywhere. the newsstands i ve looked at are empty. they say come back tomorrow get a copy then. in the electronic edition i was able to look at yesterday, this is an unapologetic magazine. this is exactly what they ve been publishing for years. they have barely any boundaries if any boundaries at all. that means poking fun at islam and catholics and the pope and mohammed all in the same page. nobody is spared. really arwa i m curious what you have been hearing about international reaction you ring there in predominantly muslim neighborhood what s the reaction there? well here people are actually quite upset. because all they re seeing is the fact that the prophet is once again being used visual image of him has been created. and they re not really seeing beyond that. they still feel fairly insulted by it and aren t really looking into the fact that it was perhaps this message of forgiveness and a message of unity that was underlying the use of the prophet once again. a lot of people we ve been speaking to here this is a very dynamic vibrant neighborhood made up mostly of an immigrant community, mostly of north africa but they re tired, also of having to justify themselves. they feel as having to constantly defend themselves as muslims, because minorities are out there carrying out acts of terror. allegedly in the neighbor of islam. so there s still a fair amount of sentiment that they re being unfairly targeted. and also that you know it was perhaps unnecessary for the image of the prophet to be used once again. here in the united states we ve heard some reaction from a u.s. muslim group. a peace advocate. we want to show you their reaction they disagree with the publication, but in a much more measured way, i think we have the full still if we can bring it up. just as charlie hebdo has the right to publish, we have the right to peacefully challenge negative portrayals of our religious figures, the answer to speech one disagrees with should not be violence but should instead be more speech promoting tolerance and mutual understanding. we re hearing that a london-based islamist cleric have called this cover an act of war. and it is being viewed by that as some. it is again the depiction of an image of the prophet mohammed. and for a lost muslims, that is blasphemy blasphemy. the vast majority of muslims reaction is one of anger, yes, that does not mean it is one of violence or that they desire violence. in fact a lot of people here that we ve been talking to fail 0 to understand why it is there was a need to once again use the image of the prophet, because it was so provocative. because it is so provocative at this stage. you know even though not far from where we are right now, at the newspaper stand, it did sell out. within a few hours. 125 copies here in this neighborhood where you may not necessarily expect it. but there is that big question out there of why. given everything that has transpired over the last few days does the image need to be used once again. brian, interesting to note that prior to this this magazine was not widely strubted around the globe, now i understand it s being published in 25 countries, in some 16 languages, do you think that s sustainable and this could be a new norm for charlie hebdo ? that s right. magazine stores in my neighborhood where are you in new york were getting phone calls all day yesterday from people who want to buy the magazine in the united states. i think we ll see it for days and weeks to come. what s different about this than all other cases where there have been depictions of the prophet mohammed. we ve seen many other media outlets pick up the image on the cover and republish it. we ve seen it on television and newspaper stands. i wonder if the folks that arwa is with that it s going 0 to further upset and disappoint the people in that community. it s not just this one magazine many others are republishing it as well. what does the magazine do in the weeks and months to come? this is a triumphant day for this provocative magazine. will they be able to publish in the coming weeks? while they are continuing to get support from other papers and magazines and say they will be back out in the weeks to come. we know that ebay has popped up. my producer said he saw a copy on ebay for $560. our thanks to brian stelter, arwa damon, thank you to both. we have news on another big story we ve been covering here the crash of airasia flight 8501. investigators say they have the black box data. so the latest on the search for what brought down that plane is ahead. sir, we re going to need you on the runway.

more tragedies and terror this as the magazine releases three million copies of its latest issue a week to the day after masked terrorists stormed its offices killing 12 people. new video has emerged of the kouachi brothers yelling, seemingly celebrating in the streets following the magazine massacre. seconds before engaging in a gunfight with police. breaking news sks the fuselage of airasia flight 8501 has been found. indonesian officials say they have an underwater photo confirming this. they also report they have successfully now downloaded the contents of both the cockpit voice recorder and the flight data record frer the jetliner. officials hope to have a preliminary report on the cause of the crash in the next few weeks. we are learning more about the deadly incident in the washington, d.c. metro, hundreds of rush hour passengers trapped inside a train car as it filled with smoke. investigators are now focusing on the evacuation. the time it took to get people out. one person died. 80 more were treated at hospitals, the ntsb says the smoke appears to be the result of an electrical malfunction on the tracks. it could be months before they determine why the evacuation took so long. dramatic new video of a confrontation, a fatal one between a montana police officer and an unarmed suspect. it captures the shooting and the officer s emotional reaction to what happened. we want to warn you the video is disturbing. this newly released dash cam video shows officer grant morrison sobbing. after taking the life of an unarmed man during a traffic stop last april. the billings montana police officer said he noticed the red ford taurus swerving suspiciously. officer morrison said he was on heightened alert after realizing one of the passengers was 38-year-old robert ramirez, a suspect in a shooting case that month. listen as the officer repeats orders to ramirez, who is reportedly high on methamphetamines at the time. officer morrison said ramirez failed to listen to his commands to keep his hands up and instead reached for his waistband. get your [ bleep ] hands up i m going to shoot you, i will shoot you! hands up! that s when the officer fires three shots. get down! his back-up arrives and reality sets in. i thought he was going to pull a gun on me. maybe he was, maybe he was. last week a seven-person coroner s jury took one hour to decide the shooting was justified. i wish i knew he didn t have a gun. but i couldn t take the risk. any officer knowing and feeling what officer morrison knew would probably dot same thing. officer morrison was placed on paid administrative leave immediately after the shooting and has since been assigned to a task force investigating prescription drug crimes. the chief of police in that area in a heartfelt post on facebook said make no mistake there are no winners in this case. the ramirez family lost a son and this officer s life will be forever changed. sometimes they re depicted as callous after police shootings. or at least not caring and to see the toll that it took on him. well sometimes it s really too often, because the problem is that many of the officers don t want to talk about it they re afraid of the perception that it gives of them as being invincible. and they re afraid to reveal being men, you know how frightening so much of this job is. every day they go out, and they don t no who they re going to face and they feel that they are as much a target as anybody that they re policing. the random traffic stop is never a random traffic stop. it s always possibly the most dangerous. isis keeps growing, despite being the target of airstrikes in two countries, we ll look at why it s happening and expert analysis of the latest shocking propaganda video released by the terrorists. sunday dinners at my house. it s a full day for me, and i love it. but when i started having back pain my sister had to come help. i don t like asking for help. i took

there s a new isis video that show as child apparently executing two russian hostages with a gun. cnn cannot authenticate the video and there s no reason to show it. but the group does have a long history of recruiting kids. using their images repeatedly for propaganda value this isn t just happening abroad, the mother of a chicago teen is facing the teen is facing terrorism charges for trying to join isis here in the united states right in chicago. the mother has a powerful message for the terror group. we condemn this violence. in the strongest possible terms. we condemn the brutal tactics of isis and groups like it. and we condemn the brain high pressure washing and recruiting the children through the use of seshl media and the internet and we have a message for isis leave our children alone. it s a really tough example lieutenant colonel of the two types of islam. you know the mod ratserates of islam and those using the face of it to pervert it. the need to take on isis is clear. the success in taking it on with military action so far is not and that s why we have cnn global affairs analyst, retired lieutenant colonel james reece. we can do this unfortunately pretty quickly. we re going to show you two versions of the map. this is the area of action right now. okay the orange shows presence the red is where it s really bad. you just saw the difference before and after the airstrikes okay? it s almost like we ve made no impact. and they haven t made much impact also except in the you rates river valley going west to syria. this is the front line trace of the combat operations right now. what does that mean, front-line trace? it shows isis where they are it shows where the iraqis and we are and the coalition and literally can show it s a chess game. it shows the trace, everyone can start seeing where the influence is on the map. to the uninitiated, it looks like you re having no impact and they re growing. how can it be possible with the sustained military action the airstrikes from the coalition, how no impact? we are gaining great ground. remember in the desert there s two things you re looking for does my map suck or ask there some subtlety here? there s some subtlety. in the desert follow the water. in iraq there s two places for the water, the tigress river valley going up north and the euphrates river valley going to syria and the west. up north we have gained some great movement up there with the iraqis have worked their way up from tajji up to badgeiji, to tal afar. the iraqis have brought those areas back. in the euphrates river valley out in al anbar, the sunni triangle you still have the influence of ices and they ve stayed static out there, have just kind of ballooned out a little bit. but they haven t pushed towards baghdad. i was in baghdad and basra and fallujah three weeks ago and people are going to work moving things you wouldn t know anything is going on in baghdad. once out of baghdad, things get more tense. you were there when it was all going down and heavy with the u.s. what is the difference if any? with the feeling you used to have of we don t like you, from the u.s. we don t like you, we know you think you re here helping us out, has that changed? you just don t see many americans these days there s not the influence you used to see where all the american vehicles and the flags and all that. i drove from basra to baghdad with my guys stopped for lunch, get gas and these things. no one paid attention. but hopefully a good sign. here s a bad sign. let s look at the expansion of isis influence across the entire region now. we ll take a global perspective. show that one, all right? that s the world view flattened out for you, look at all the black flags, not just in afghanistan, which is a concern, but you see them branching out. how do you reconcile that? i m not sure we should worry about what what pot we re pushing all these bad guys into okay? i think a lot of places you re getting some radicalization like take afghanistan and people are just looking for, what s the flag the black flag, the white flag of the taliban. which one can i grab that has the most influence. you think it s hype? it s hype. i m a redskins fan, you re a jets fan. kind of the same thing. what fan do you want to follow? but you can see isis they have a following. and they have some influence out there. which is important. so you re not just an analyst, you re a warrior. do you believe that the military action is working right now? do you believe that it s being done the right way? in iraq i believe right now it is working. speaking with the iraqi people what i saw three weeks ago, we are letting the iraqis do it. it s slow. it is a slow process. is it the right way? well i think for the u.s. for the coalition, yes, it is we have to allow the sunnis and the shia here s what i think is great, chris, the iranians whether you like it or not, the iranians the shia forces are in iraq helping and they re doing a great job. they re definitely there. they re definitely there. i saw them. i literally saw them. because, that s a big point of discussion the u.s. doesn t like to say that. they don t want to work with them. but you drive the street and there s the militia doing a good job. i m happy to hear you say that the fact that you got back safe is a sign of progress. lieutenant colonel james reece, thank you for the intelligence. president obama under fire by critics, questioning his strategy in syria and iraq. out of 42 vehicles. based on 6 different criteria. why did a panel of 11 automotive experts. . name the volkswagen golf motor trend s 2015 car of the year? we ll give you four good reasons the all-new volkswagen golf starting at $17,995. there s an award winning golf for everyone. hey what are you doing? i was thinking about taking this speed test from comcast business. oh yeah? if they can t give us faster internet or save us money, they ll give us 150 bucks. sounds like a win win. guys! faster internet? i have never been on the internet and i am doing pretty well. does he even work here? don t listen to the naysayer. take the comcast business speed test. get faster speeds or more savings, or we ll give you $150. comcast business. built for business. president obama met with leaders of the new republican-controlled congress on tuesday, they discussed authorizing military action against isis. and all this comes as the president s strategy against isis is being challenged on many fronts. take a listen to senator john mccain. we have no strategy with which to degrade and defeat isis. the president may say it but there s no one in the entire administration who can articulate anything approaching it. all right so that s from senator mccain, avy definite perspective there. and it s clear that fighting isis will take the white house and congress working in lock-step. the question is is it even possible let alone practical. let s discuss, cnn political analyst, editor in chief of the daily beast, mr. john avlon, sirius xm host republican analyst, margaret hoover. you may do nothing else with your life. must do nothing else. so let s set the table here shall we. the congress is saying mr. president, give us the authorization for the use of force for further militariance against isis okay? he has not. let s start there with the state of play. why hasn t that happened? it s so obviously so clearly needed. it s clearly needed constitutionally. but there s two issues after the election there was a decision to punt to kick it to the new congress. the recent history of authorizations for military force with presidents isn t so good this side of the gulf of tonkin. there s an attempt to do good faith by the administration and congress is to try to get a method in place that doesn t exacerbate mission creep. but the administration seems to be saying look congress you take the lead on this congress is waiting for the president to take the lead potential logjam. if fact i want to say is what john mccain went on to say, he believes we re going to need a lot more u.s. soldiers on the ground in order to fight isis in iraq and syria. is congress talking about that? well they re going look this is the time for americans to have a really thoughtful and robust conversation about what is going to be required in syria and iraq and what does american public have a stomach to commit. we couldn t have an honest conversation before election it was silly season. this is what happens in our democracy, there s an incredibly scattered approach to the authorization of military force from this administration which i think contributes to this the state of play the sort of are we going to do it? who s going to start, the chicken or the egg, back in june july susan rice sent a letter to congress asking to repeal the authorization for military force and a month later when they found themselves needing to bomb in northern iraq they relied on the authorization of military force, so the administration has a mixed relationship with this particular authorization of military force. let s accept all of that is true, let s accept all of that as true constitutionally this is not in the weeds this is not sudden sutlety. you know you are at war with isis you know you know that you are airstrikeing them. congress has a duty to debate and either declare or not declare. by almost any reckoning, we re past that line. why isn t it on congress? it is. i think you talk to senators that are leading. they re not doing it. they re about to start. that was john mccain was saying yesterday, we don t have a strategy we need to talk about what our strategy is and as the new chair of the foreign relations committee. he has his own smaller bully pulpit to drive that conversation, to drive what he feels the strategy should be. think you re beginning to see what the debate is going to look like. the fundamental conflict behind the strategy here is containment or defending baghdad a strategy to destroy? no it s not, that s one of the philosophical differences, ultimately where mccain will go is boots on the ground. that s a line in the sand the president has set, a big difference. one of the reasons, it s difficult for the united states to measure our progress. because we don t have boots on the ground that can do so. that s a major division between mccain camp and obama. yesterday was the first meeting of the new congress at the white house, with the president. did they talk about this? what s on their agenda? what s top on their agenda now? it appears they re talking about this. it appears they re trying to figure out where they can work together. there s divisions about the funding of the department of homeland security. because the republican party now and the leadership in the house, john boehner is having to appease some of his right wing base which a, looks terrible for republicans and b, it s not how you run a government. scattered leadership you re just indicting the obama administration that s going to fall on boehner s plate. same criticism. same criticism, it does carry a little bit different weight when you re the leader of the free world, setting military policy for your country. the senate can t keep saying it s difficult to herd cats and i have to deal with my crazy caucus you have to do what s right and what s responsible. in the wake of paris, to politicize dhs fund something dumb. it s dumb practically. cybersecurity being a place for discussion of auf. but the keystone is a major flash-point. just so people know, 85% of personnel for dhs are essential personnel, people on the border they would still show up for work. this isn t as draconian as maybe being played out in the press. it s just dumb. it s dumb irresponsible. it s theatrics on the part of the tea party caucus which isn t particularly useful for boehner, frankly, or for the republicans. we re exactly where we were a couple of months ago. in that there s not a lot of give and tarkske there s not a lot of common ground there s still things being held up. no one is willing to give pass what they cham is their comfort level. the crazy caucus has been contained to this one area and it frankly won t wreak real damage. i think what s going to be interesting and we should keep our eye on is the senate. the senate is going to be the moderating body. they re not going do pass any of this crazy stuff out of the house, anyway. john boehner has to say, okay you kids had your day. i don t like crazy caucus this is a logical reaction to a lack of leadership. it happens, i think what is odd is that and it does come out of that caucus is the us doing nothing in congress us judgment being obstructionists is helping the american people is doing our job. i don t get that logically and it certainly hasn t worked practically. i don t think it s a crazy caucus. we refer to it in terms of the tactics, these are elected member who is have really truly sincerely-held beliefs about the president using executive action to pass the president himself didn t believe that he had the executive authority to pass that action. he said pass a bill. precisely. to your point, i appreciate you saying the guys are crazy. no they re not crazy. it s the tactic that i refer to as crazy. but there is this kamikaze caucus that wants to make ideological stands and are willing to go off the cliff to do it. that by many definitions is crazy. it s driven by ideology it s less interest in governing than grandstanding. there is a window. congress and the white house recognize we ve got six months to get something done before silly season reasserts itself. whether it s cyber, tax reform trade deals. but immigration and keystone are hanging around and politicizing things. i think education, i think no child left behind finding a compromise on that it s been open since 2007. that should be low-hanging fruit. leadership from both parties aren t saying they re going to work on it. wait until 16 begins it will get more crazy. i like kamikaze going. it throws off the tongue. he s a former speech writer. there s a lot of news this morning, we re following all of it. so let s get to it. al qaeda in yemen. now claiming responsibility for the paris terror attacks. it would suggest aqap is trying to push back into the jihadi spotlight. new video, of the chilling moments immediately after the attacks. they re calm they re cool they re collectedth and they go about their business. unprecedented to see this type of urban warfare. walking out, engaging the police in a way that was very effective. this is a terror cell. announcer: this is new day, with chris cuomo, alisyn camerota and michaela pereira. good morning, everyone welcome back to new day. this hour we begin with breaking news for you. al qaeda s yemen branch claiming responsibility for the massacre at the charlie hebdo magazine. the terror group calling the kouachi brothers heroes of islam. a top commander says al qaeda selected the target planned the operation and financed it. the video message warns of more tragedies and terror to come. this as new video also emerges of these terrorists brothers in the moments after the massacre. let s begin our corage with pentagon correspondent barbara starr, good morning. good morning, chris. the al qaeda official on the tape is a key figure in al qaeda in yemen. as you say, he claims that it was al qaeda that quote chose the target laid the plan financed the operation. he makes an interesting turn here he suggests that it was ayman al zawahiri the son of bin laden, that ordered the strategic attack the high-level attack on the cartoonists, but it was anwar al awlaki who has been dead since 2011 who basically on the ground in yemen ordered the attack. this is very interesting, because it s now believed that the younger brother, cherif kouachi, met with awlaki when he traveled to yemen in 2011. it s believed it was al qaeda in yemen that largely financed provided the money for the brothers for the attack. but why is this so important. this is a claim by al qaeda. the intelligence community needs to find out if it is actually true. because it goes to the point that al qaeda in yemen still, despite years of u.s. drone attacks, has the ability to organize plan and carry out a very significant terrorist attack that they would have the command and control to carry this out. and right now, it is only al qaeda in yemen that has the ability to build and place, put in place potentially bombs that can get through u.s. airport screening, european airport screening. that potentially to potentially put a bomb on an aircraft is what makes al qaeda in yemen one of the top threats that the u.s. feels it s dealing with. so figuring out what exactly their role was in paris, now a top priority. chilling possibilities there, barbara starr, thank you. charlie hebdo releasing three million copies of its magazine around the world a week after masked terrorists stormed its office and slaughtered 12 people. this all comes as disturbing new video emerges of the kouachi brothers holding a twisted celebration in the street moments after that massacre. for the latest let s get to john berman live in paris, good morning, john. good morning, alisyn. the chilling video you re just referencing was shot right here behind me on the street. it is dramatic. and as you say, extraordinarily chilling. it s being released right now as the security presence in paris is greater than it has been to date. 10,000 troops 8,000 police on the street. one of the things they are concerned about today is the release of the new issue of charlie hebdo. it hit the stands this morning. and everywhere we went, it was already sold out. chilling new video captures terrorists cherif and said kouachi moments after they carried out the horrific attack on the offices of charlie hebdo. the video reveals one of the terrorists shouting we have avenged the prophet mohammed. just outside the magazine s offices. the gunmen reload their automatic weapons before slipping into their getaway car and start driving down a narrow road lights flashing, a police cruiser blocks their path. the hooded gunmen get out of their car, and open fire. they re cold-blooded killers, they re calm they re cool they re collected. they go about their business. that just shows you what we are up against. hours later, the brothers rob a gas station 50 miles northeast of paris. these surveillance images show what appears to be an rpg, rocket-propelled grenade launcher strapped to the side of one of the brothers as they steal gas and food. the videos get scrutinized a great deal. how they held their weapons, that suggested they had some kind of formal training. it was known that the older brother moved in jihadist circles. in 2008 he went on trial for his involvement in a network smuggling islamist fighters to iraq. in this newly uncovered video from the moments just after his conviction cherif tells a reporter quote, we are just young kids from the suburbs. that is all. we get passionate we talk like this but there is nothing more. investigators are now taking a look at the money trail trying to find out how the brothers financed their trips to yemen. and how the terrorists got their high-powered weapons. what we ve been able to accumulate over the last six days is a tremendous amount of data. as the investigation continues, three million copies of charlie hebdo s new issue hit the newsstands this morning. already sold out at markets across paris. prior to the release, one of the surviving cartoonists, known as luz. held a press conference. at times, his emotions overwhelmed him. reflecting on the motive behind the bloodshed, luz says the terrorists were once kids, they drew like us and then one day perhaps they lost their sense of humor, perhaps their child soul. an interesting development this more. we learned from french officials, they say that dozens of people here have been detained for condoning or defending terrorism. it s against the law in france to speak out against terrorism and if convicted, it could bring a sentence of anywhere from 18 months to seven years, so dozens detained including a very famous french comic, chris. thank you very much. what s happening over where you are, is having a lot of influence on what s happening right here. so let s bring in representative jim hines, a member of the house intelligence committee, democrat from kentucky. because of the new bomb video, because of what s going on in paris, do we have any specific information of any threats here in the united states? any information about connections to these terrorists brothers? u.s. people who had traveled abroad? what are we learning about our connection to anything happening there? well chris, at this point there s no as other officials have said there s no specific threat to the united states. but that of course does not mean that we don t remain enormously vigilant. one of the things we see in these situations is that from time to time there are copycat acts. but to answer your question no at this point there s no specific and credible threat against targets in the united states. the early word from u.s. intelligence was these brothers these actors this is a one-off, this is a french thing. they wound up being on a u.s. no-fly list. that s why i m asking it again. are we sure that you don t have members of the united states who may be back here now, who are somehow involved of this foreign training and loosely organized cell that we re seeing uncovered in paris? yeah of course we re not sure. you know in fact this is one of the things that makes terrorism so challenging, of course we re not sure. we can never be sure that there aren t people in our cities who are in some way, shape or form related. that perhaps aren t related, but were inspired by anwar al awlaki who seems to have at least in my opinion, played some role in inspiring these guys. so no unfortunately in this in this game one can never be sure. but on the other hand from time to time you do get indications that there are possible attacks under way. we re not in that mode. but of course you cannot be sure that there aren t somebody who you know perhaps trained with these guys or maybe just simply never met these guys never been to yemen, but gets inspired by what in their twisted way they would consider the success of this act in paris. congressman i m going to circle back to terror. we have a responsibility to address something that s going to have an impact here. let s pup putt up speaker boehner s statement, please about immigration. there s going to be a bill that s coming going to include amendments to stop the president s unilateral actions on immigration. and the speaker reminded the president that he himself had stated publicly many times in the past that he did not have the power to rewrite immigration law through executive action. as you know the president s response to that has been yeah so pass a bill. but that doesn t really work legally and it hasn t worked politically. what is your position in terms of whether or not executive action is the way to go there? and if not, what s the alternative? well my position is it s a real shame that we find ourselves in a world where executive action was necessary. to try to move our immigration system to something much more sane and something we all would consider sort of more reflective of our values senate 500, 600 days ago passed a bill with very strong bipartisan support that had money for the border that had a mechanism for over a lengthy period of time and with a lot of penalties for people who are here illegally to make themselves right with the law and it never came up in the house, despite very strong bipartisan support in the senate. we don t need to be here. but congressman, you are here in part because the president did something that is now allowing speaker bainer to focus on what he did instead of focusing on immigration. because he lass apparently high ground on having used executive action to do something that the president himself admitted he shouldn t be doing by executive action. so the distraction has now become the entire situation. let s be clear about what the president said he couldn t do. the president said he couldn t rewrite immigration law. technically and legally that is correct. what the president has done after waiting well over a year the president has said this is an urgent problem and within the law, i m going to act with prosecutorial discretion a till-tested concept everywhere including within the oval office, i m going to act to try to make the situation better. it s pretty clear from anybody who has looked behind the law that the president used to exercise his discretion he has that right. i scratch my head on it it s so far beyond what i think most americans think is the right thing to do. for example, chris, you know the president s authority, the dreamers the kids who came here at age one or two or three, know no other country. the blackburn amendment, coming before the house today would basically eliminate that. these 600,000 kids many of them kids in college or the military who have come forward and said fine i ll take your deal i will stay employed pay my taxes, i ll stay right with the law. now all of a sudden the blackburn amendment on the floor of the house would say whoops sorry, we were just kidding. one and a half years from now you re going to be at risk even though you re working today or in the university today. of having an armed individual show up at your door and send you to a country you may never have been to. that s why the merits of the debate can t be gotten to quickly enough. and that s why the executive action now is being criticized as having been a distraction. let s leave that issue there. we need to see the debate play out so the american people can make decisions about where they are on it let s go back to the war on terror. a couple of points of where we are in terms of awareness, the state department the white house, they seem to be wrestling, and that s putting it gently with how to define who is committing acts of terror. they don t seem to want to say islamic extremists or islamists. why? why are you getting caught up in vernacular in a situation that seems very clear? the people committing the acts of terror are muslims. how they pervert the faith, that s all something else. but why hide from that? it seems like pc run amok. another distraction. why do you want to be a little careful about that? the reason you want to be a little careful about that is number one, the single-biggest group of victims of islamic terror around the world are in fact other muslims. and therefore, chris, of course one of the very best allies we can have and by the way that we absolutely need to have is the support of muslims, the vast majority of muslims and of course muslim countries and muslim leaders who regard these terrorists as absolutely appalling and who will be our allies. so if we re not a little careful about the language we use, if we just condemn an entire religion. if we condemn entire countries, it s going to be very hard for us to then work with those people in an alliance against what is a tiny fraction of extremists in that religion. 1.62 billion muslims, a very small fraction wind up perverting the religion and do something else. but that doesn t make the terrorists not muslims. it makes them bad muslims. it makes them ignorant muslims, misinformed muslims. but when you hide from the term islam you are feeding people s paranoia about islam as well. you defeat your own intentions. well look you know i saw a quote oert day, somebody said you know when there s this many bad apples there is a problem in the orchard. and to some extent i think that that s right. clearly there is some warped segment within islam that is inspiring people to do this. but you know and there s it makes no sense at all. to sort of deny that fact. and frankly, look if i were a muslim cleric if i were a muslim leader i would be sitting back and thinking to myself my god, what has happened in this corner of my religion that s allowed people to hijack it in this way. we should demand of moderates and thoughtful islamic leaders that they stand up and very clearly condemn this stuff and that they have that soul-searching. but look when a guy like me or the president of the united states demands that of another religion you know that it looks at moderates had maybe do condemn this stuff and say what s wrong with you people? that s not a constructive dialogue that s going to urge both the alliance we need in fighting these terrorists but also urge the sort of soul-searching that i do think needs to happen amongst the leadership within that religion. congressman jim himes, thank you very much for coming on new day. look forward to continuing the conversation. 13 minutes past the hour. a look at your headlines. beginning with breaking news an official in

seen checking their weapons, before engaging in a gunfight with police. and breaking news this morning we re getting yet another video from al qaeda, this one claiming responsibility for the massacre in paris last week. here to analyze all of this is cnn terrorism analyst paul cruickshank and former house intelligence committee member mike rogers. the claim of responsibility from aqap what do you see? it s a key development. a claim of responsibility from a senior military strategist in aqap. one of the two key official spokesmen, ali bin asri saying the group was responsibility for the attack they chose the target, they funded this. that anwar al awlaki the american terrorist cleric met with one of the brothers handled him and persuaded him to return to france to launch this attack. so a key new claim of responsibility from the group, they re saying that the leader of al qaeda overall ayman al zawahiri provided the overall strategic collection to launch this attack. what took them so long to claim responsibility? it takes them a few days to get the message out there in hiding from the drones and the tribal areas of yemen. they ve not yet offered proof that they were responsibility for this attack. there s no video from the brother. with the abu mutallib operation the underwear bomber. where do you begin? the intelligence community will have to go back and review whether this particular individual was at a training camp and obviously many believe that he was. where was it? did they know about it? was there something else some other action they could have taken to stop this event. they ll go through the after-action review. that will be very important. that may lead to a policy change in how they handle activities in a place like yemen. what the intelligence community do is try to evaluate going forward, do we have the right resources applied to the problem here. this is very interesting. because we have seen a threat stream that for at least six or seven months that said that aqap was trying to plan an attack somewhere in the west. primarily europe. but not necessarily excluding the united states. some believed and the intelligence community would be a bigger event. this is a fundamental shift for them. if in fact that zawahiri did say we want some level of attacks, even if it isn t as spectacular as a 9/11 attack to move forward. that means that the game has changed a little bit, for both law enforcement and intelligence services in how they defeat and disrupt these attacks. let s talk about the female accomplice the one who went through istanbul before the attack happened. are you expecting to see some communication or video from her shall. it s quite possible hayat boumeddiene is now expected of being in syria, isis or another group, maybe nusra will roll out the red carpet for her when she arrives. she may have extra videotapes responsibility from her boyfriend, or partner, amedy coulibaly. interestingly, aqap was saying coulibaly was not part of aqap. he joined in with the aqap operatives, the brothers in this attack it was their good fortune, aqap that he did that. meaning he was an opportunist. he was an opportunist. but he was a friend of these brothers for half a decade. it seems perhaps that the brothers recruited him into the operation themselves. rather than aqap. mike, let s talk about this home video showing the moments of these brothers kouachi brothers immediately after the attack at charlie hebdo as they were getting away. i want you to help us analyze what you see here as you look at this. some say triumphant video of them. he s yelling there, mike he s yelling there, mike that we have avenged the prophet mohammed and he has his finger in the air. he s not concerned that people are taping him. he knows there are people on the roofs who have seen this. what do you see when you look at this. a couple of things. one of the analytical processes they ll have to go through is did they actually believe they were going to be killed during the course of the operation. and it s not inconsistent with other attacks where you would have this expression of their faith and why they committed these horrific acts of violence here. it that is not inconsistent with other attacks that we see, you have to ask the question they re clearly rearming themselves. they understand that they re going to depart the area. so was this a martyr operation? or was it an operation in which they hoped to repeat again somewhere else? and that s what i think there s a lot of questions in this investigation will have to get there. again you have to ask in the subsequent footage of this film when it engages in the police the police were absolutely outgunned in this particular fight. so i think the police officer was prudent by moving his vehicle badge,ck he s getting attacked by two assault weapons, he had a pivotal defend himself. the french police the french government french policy is going to have to ask themselves. now we have a new level of armed terrorists in the country. obviously even the third fellow there had weapons, more weapons, more machine guns bombs in his apartment. the one that took over the coffee shop. and so they ve got a new level of violence that they re just not quite used to seeing in france you ve got two problems there. one you can see that they were clearly trained. they were very very committed. they engaged the police officer together. autumn of that denotes training. and they were very very well armed. this is a whole new policy discussion that the french police are going to have to have. you can t send these folks out there with a pistol against guys with assault weapons and bombs. this is going to be a very interesting few months for policy-makers in france. even here at home. u.s. officials, the pentagon barbara starr was reportsing that the pentagon characterizes that attack as quote very sophisticated. you study videos like this paul. do you start to try to figure out what the source was? what are the clues you see in this video? they re trained, they re disciplined. they have enormous firepower, they don t just have kalishnakovs these guys had an m-82 rocket launcher. the question is what were they going to do with that rocket launch centre quite fortunate they didn t use the rocket launcher on the streets of paris. this is an unprecedented well-armed group. we ve never seen an act of urban terrorism on anything like this level with these kind of heavy weapons on a street of a major western capital. a lot of questions, where do they get these weapons from? could other co-conspirators still be out there and have access to these kind of really powerful weapons? paul cruickshank, mike rogers thank you so much. with the presidential intrigue side elizabeth warren has shut the door on a presidential run. but guess what a bunch of really motivated people are kicking it back open for her. john king has

especially when you realize that there are people most likely inside that aircraft. we have to pause and remember 162 passengers and crew on board that flight. 100, more than 100 of their bodies have not been recovered. when you look at the passenger manifest michaela five six, seven from the same families all headed to singapore, some to celebrate the new year. the search chief says the section of the fuselage is most of it about 100 feet. they say the plan is to put divers down in the morning. see if they can recover a lot of those bodies. if not, he says they may have to lift it out. families have been waiting for answers, it appears now their wait may be over. michaela? more than 100 remain missing, david thank you for the update. a leak in a cooling system has forced the evacuation of the u.s. portion of the the international space station. russian media reports harmful substances were emitted, the crew is not in danger we re told. and they re now housed with the russian crew members while they assess what needs to be done. isis has expanded its reign of terror into southern afghanistan. afghan officials say isis fighters have clashed with the local taliban

lowering the thermostat. this is not something you should be telling my father. it s a study published in the journal cell metabolism reformers found being in a room as cold as 53 degrees, produces cells that rev up your body s calorie burn. shivering for ten minutes could be just as effective as weight loss and exercise. why are we telling the world this? this is great news for me our furnace broke last night. i woke up this morning and it was 57 degrees in my house, which accounts for the new svelte allison you re seeing. 57 i ve got to get that fixed. what do you keep the house at normally? i like at least 68. but i prefer 70. thrifty husbands around the world are cheering i can lower the heating bill. this is great. and wives are rolling their eyes. science. time for inside politics, our political scientist, now here on new day, mr. john king. how does that segue, bet centre. i m a 70 degree guy, but i m going down to 50 now. lose a pound or two. put on a sweater. that is the great segue as we go inside politics this morning. put on a sweater with me this morning in his sweater jonathan martin of the new york times, julia pace of the associated press. we were joking yesterday, yesterday was the day to decide it s time to advance your presidential campaign and you ll get the point in a second. let s start with reason number one. john podesta, the former bill clinton chief of staff, now president obama s climate change adviser. senior adviser, he s leaving next month, to be there, the question is if hillary clinton runs for president. but you don t leave a senior job at the white house unless you have a little private information that she s going to run for president, right? i mean this has been the plan for a while. john podesta came to the white house, said he would stay a year an then until after the state of the union. i think what s most interesting is the plan is in action now. you still talk to people and hear them say, well i m going to work for hillary, if there s a campaign. if she decides to run for president. at the same time people could not start coalescing around a person like hillary clinton unless they know that this campaign is going to move forward. it s a matter of when she makes this officially official. officially official. but john podesta leaving, jonathan martin tells me he has a better understanding of the calendar when she will make it official than we do. and there s this drawn-out bit of sort of theater in terms of all of us having to pretend that this is all hypothetical and you ve got actual pieces in motion. the news i think and the podesta move. it s been long expected. is that they signal to the democratic party is that this hillary campaign is going to be different. we re going to have more structure, we re going to have somebody on top of the chart who is a pro, who has been in politics for really 40 years. working on campaigns. and i think that s what this is john podesta is known around washington known among democrats nationally. this is not going to be the sort of faction-driven campaign of 08. a lot of credibility with the liberal pace he founded the center for american progress, think tank. to that point, elizabeth warren we say there s the draft elizabeth warren movement. there s rallies planned in new hampshire in the next couple of days. sometimes when she s asked the question the answer seems a little squishy, or we think aha, she was asked the question by fortune magazine. so are you going to run for president? no. i take that as a no. i take that as a no for now. for now? you just did it. i do if we ve learned anything from mitt romney over the last couple of days no might not mean no when it comes for running the president. one of the groups doing the draft warren movement said we re not surprised she said no. she s currently not running for president because if she were running for president, we wouldn t have to have a draft warren movement. so there will be people around her, pressure still. she seems pretty definitive. but i don t think that s going to stop this liberal wing of the party from at least continuing to make an argument for her and then make an arguement for their policies. she keeps getting asked this question. this is news because in the past she s used the future tense i m not going to run for president. this is more kurt and to the point. but she could also tomorrow come out to move on and say, guys take down the draft movement i m for hillary clinton. it s time to fall. she s not doing that the reason she s not doing that is because she wants to use the white building behind us the capital to leverage her standing to move her party towards a more populist orientation and use her stance to move hillary towards a more populist orientation. go to our politics page today on cnn.com, how do you rate your candidates and crowd pac, an organization cnn partnered with for the ranking, uses financial contributions as well as your positions on the issues and as well as what you ve said to sort of build an ideological spectrum it shows elizabeth warren and hillary clinton much closer together by this standard than you might think otherwise. you can look at the republican candidates as well. one of them yesterday did something very important back home. delivered his state of the state address and b sent a clear signal that he s thinking of moving beyond. chris christie in his state of the union address talked about a new jersey renewal. said there needs to be an american renewal and said you know what washington needs some new leadership. we are a nation beset by anxiety. and it s understandable. economic growth is low by post war recovery standards. america s leadership in the world is called into question because of a pattern of indecision. and inconsistency. during this time of uncertainty it seems our leaders in washington would rather stoke the vision for their own political gain. he s a uniter not a divider. it s not exactly road projects in jersey city either. it s a very national orientation there. it s not a secret he s running for president and my colleagues have a story today in the paper that he is going to create a pac to help him towards that end. it s not an announcement. i don t think that will come until later. but all the action around him, he wants to make clear to donors that yes, in fact he does still want to run. i think it was the timing that was most significant when you have romney and jeb bush who are making actual moves, he wants to be part of the conversation. he doesn t want to be the guy that s left behind. there are going to be fighting for a pool of donors that has a lot of overlap. it s important for him to send a clear sill sig nal that i am serious, i am moving forward. what looks like a crowded republican field. politico has an interview with rand paul in which he essentially says the rest of them they re all bums. he said you need a candidate. he said you need a candidate who reaches out to new constituencies is able to bring new people into the party. if we do the same-old same-old candidates we re going to get the same old result. it s a bit self-serving. occasionally politicians are self-serving. he criticizes romney. said he would have been a good leader of the country, he s had his chance. jeb, he goes after on common core education standards. he s running, he s hired a campaign manager. jork pataki the former governor of new york when he made a trip up to new hampshire, he told channel 11 that he s close to making his decision to get in he framed it a when to get in not if i get in. who else? i think you re going to see a now more governors look at the race and i think you re going to see the possibility of folks who aren t in politics looking at this. it s january of 2015. tis the season. to borrow the cliche that i heard from senators yesterday talking about mitt romney the more the merrier. i think you re going to see that sort of approach. to the more the merrier, how much of that was a genuine, the more the merrier. which a lot of them do think, you get eight or ten candidates in there, a mix of governors and senators might benefit the party. healthy debates, but how much the more the merrier when it comes to the specific romney question is a dodge. like really don t a lot of anxiety. they like the guy, but going to do it a third time? that was the recurring refrain. when i talked to senators the last couple of days was first of all, look in the eye of why are you asking me this question? i don t want to answer this question. and then secondly it was some kind of a euphemism or a dodge about he s a great guy, it s going to be a big field. look there s no great love for mitt romney. there s respect for him. as a kind and decent man. but there s no huge appetite among a lot of republicans that aren t tied for him to him to run for a third time. the same challenges he had in the last campaign, he still has. we ll watch in the weeks ahead whether all of those phone calls he s making now convince him. maybe not the third time. alisyn as we get back to you, we ll see who else joins the republican field. during this segment. did mr. cuomo get up and turn the thermostat down there? he continues to question whether or not men and women feel temperature the same way. i smell a future segment for us john we ll get back to you on all that. have a good day. what should we call the paris attackers? that s a big debate this morning. do we call them muslim terrorists extremists? next we talk to an expert who says it s not any of those terms i just said. at ally bank no branches equals great rates. it s a fact. kind of like mute buttons equal danger. .that sound good? not being on this phone call sounds good. it s not muted. was that you jason? it was geoffrey! it was jason. it could ve been brenda. when you run a business, you can t settle for slow. that s why i always choose the fastest intern. the fastest printer. the fastest lunch. turkey club. the fastest pencil sharpener. the fastest elevator. the fastest speed dial. the fastest office plant. so why wouldn t i choose the fastest wifi? i would. switch to comcast business and get the fastest wifi with the most coverage. comcast business. built for business. what should we call the terrorist attack in paris? was it islamic extremism? violent jihad? or maybe radical islam? well listen to all the different ways officials categorize terrorists. we will only win the fight against violent extremism in the middle east. in standing up against the these extremists. efforts by terrorists and violent extremist groups anywhere in the world. the threat posed by extremist organizations. we want to bring in the author of in the land of invisible women who has written an article just out this morning, in london s journal the spectator for the need to name this beast. quanta great to see you. why are they struggling so much with what to call this? the reason is there s a tremendous fear that they avoid impugning all muslims. and we understand that as muslims, but we also are concerned for instance, me personally to use the word the phrase radical islam suggests that all of my faith might be somehow radical. which i disagree with. but to identify a distinct ideology that borrows from islam. islamists i think is the best term and that s what they call themselves. islamists. with an s, not a c. you like the word islamists, because there s a long history to it. explain why. islamists created a manifesto in the 1920s, egypt developed in prisons with certain idealogues the most famous of whom is hassan al banner. the use of the word islamists is a deliberate decision on their part. they ve set out to deceive us and portray what is an authentic religion. borrowing language and metaphors from our religion but for an express it totalitarian ideology. the white house has not adopted the word islamists, it s close to the word islamic. but listen to josh earnest, the white house press secretary, just yesterday answering a question on why he won t call this radical islam. we have not chosen to use that label it doesn t seem to accurately describe what happened. we also don t want to be in a situation where we are legitimizing what we consider to be a completely illegitimate justification for this violence. this act of terrorism. doesn t he have a point. that he doesn t even want to dignify it by bringing islam into the conversation. because many of the things that these terrorists say they re fighting for, cannot even be found in the koran. i do understand that. but i think there is a couple of deficiencies by avoiding the term islamists we are committing ourselves to identifying only terrorists or physically violent acts i call them jihadism. the united states has an array of phrases for it but also therefore that leaves out nonviolent islamist ideologies that are also being propagated and that s what s come to play with the charlie hebdo crisis. this contraction on freedom of speech under the aegis, the false aegis of blasphemy is an islamist nonviolent assault. in a different kind of war. so i think we are very limited in the united states when we avoid using this phrase. and we are using the word islamist has been identified by muslim scientists reading arabic literature from their manifesto. so the correct word is islamists even though it gives everybody, muslims and nonmuslims discomfort. if we don t name the beast, my word that i you for this ideology that dares to portray itself as my religion it s distinct we re already hampering our approach in it. to your point about what s in the koran and what they claim blasphemy, the idea that these terrorists in paris, use the fact that the prophet was blasphemed is not in the koran. the koran actually does not identify blasphemy to be a punishment that a mortal exacts on another mortal. if it is a crime at all, it is to be judged between a man and his maker. i want to read you something that kareem abdul-jabbar wrote about all of this a famous basketball player and a muslim. he said when the klu klux klan burn a cross in black family s yard prominent christians are not required to explain how these are not really christian acts most people realize that the kkk does not represent that s what i and oremus limbs long for, the day when these terrorists praising the prophet muhammad s or alla s name as they debase their actual teachings are realized as thugs disguising themselves as muslims. is it possible to separate what they re doing from islam? i understand. that s an intelligent assessment that they made. there is no getting away from the fact that islamism would never exist without islam. i do see them as very separate. been identified by president cisse, the president of egypt. doctor it is always wonderful to talk to you. people can find your article online on the spectator. thanks so much for coming in. thanks alisyn. what do you believe this violent phenomenon should be called. you

reporter: good morning, alisyn. an interesting new development this morning. french officials tell us they have detained dozens of individuals for condoning or supporting terrorism. it is against the law here in france to speak out in support of terror acts. these authorities have now detained dozens of people including a very famous french person. you can be sentenced to prison time for this 18 to 70 years. cracking down on what they call hate speech here. this comes, as you said as they release this dramatic video of the attack on the charlie hebdo offices right behind me. you see the terrorists driving on this street. it is chilling to see their calm eerie calculation. reporter: chilling new video captures terrorists cherif and farid kouachi moments after they carried out the attack on charlie hebdo. the video reveals one of the terrorists shouting we have avenged the prophet muhammad just outside the magazine s offices. the gunmen reload their automatic weapons before slipping into their get away car and start driving down a narrow road lights flashing. a police cruiser blocks their path. the hooded gunmen get out of their car and open fire. they re cold blooded killers. they re calm they re cool they re collected and they go about their business. that just shows you what we are up against. reporter: hours later the brothers rob a gas station 50 miles northeast of paris. these surveillance images show what appears to be an rpg, rocket propelled grenade launcher strapped to the side of one of the brothers as they steal gas and food. the videos get scrutinized a great deal. how they held their weapons that suggested that they had had some kind of formal training. reporter: it was known that the older brother, cherif notched jihadist circles. in 2008 he went on trial for his involvement in a network smuggling islamist fighters to iraq. in this newly uncovered video from the moments just after his conviction cherif tells a reporter quote, we are just young kids from the suburbs. that is all. we get passionate. we talk like this, but there is nothing more. investigators are now taking a look at the money trail trying to find out how the brothers financed their trips to yemen and how the terrorists got their high powered weapons. what we ve been able to accumulate over the last six days is a tremendous amount of data. reporter: as the investigation continues, 3 million copies of charlie hebdo s new issue hit the news stands this morning. already sold out at markets across paris. prior to the release one of the surviving cartoonists, louz held a press conference. at times his emotions overwhelmed him. translator: reflecting on the motive behind the bloodshed, louz said the terrorists were once kids. they drew like us then they one day perhaps lost their sense of humor, perhaps their child soul. i was at that news conference yelled. it was very moving. that cartoonist you just saw, luz, is only alive today because one week ago he showed up to work late at these offices after the horrible massacre there. today the magazine that he drew the cover for, it did hit the streets, but we went to newstand after newstand and, chris, every copy already sold out. certainly going to get a strong reaction if for no other reason that john now it is a piece of history. on the u.s. side secretary of state john kerry is going to travel to france tomorrow to meet with french president francois hollande. joining us is marie harf. marie, good to have you on the show. thanks for joining us. happy to be here chris. obviously i want to talk about all things paris related, however, one question on the macro topic, the war against terror specifically the military actions against isis. are you you are probably aware, but it is not being well communicated to the united states people i think, that iran s fighters are actively present in iraq helping the battles there and are being embraced by the iraqi government and people. is that something that the u.s. is acknowledging, at least internally internally? and why aren t we hearing more about it? well chris, i think a couple things. first, it s clear the u.s. is the one country that has unique capabilities that they can bring to help the iraqis in this fight. i think the iraqis understand that. clearly iraq and iran have a historical relationship and they will continue to have one. we bring unique capabilities to bear. i know the iraqis appreciate that we re bringing them weapons and training. what we re hearing is they re on the ground. they re making advances. there are more of them coming in. does the u.s. then have to avoid any joint missions where the iranians it seems like it s going to get very sticky very quickly. we re certainly not koord nighting with the iranians in any way in this fight with isil. what we re focused on is supporting the iraqis the kurdish forces as they are taking on the fight to isol. they have had some success. this is going to be a long fight as we ve said. we reported it marie. we had someone in iraq saying there are advances going on. back to france. let s close the circle on the decision not to go to paris. secretary kerry obviously would have been a great choice for that. the criticism really goes to the timing of the decision the accountability for the decision. do you know who made the decision not to send the secretary to the march? well secretary kerry was in india the day of the march. he absolutely would have been in paris if there was any way that his schedule would have allowed it. you know i think, as do other people how often he s traveled there, how close our relationship is and the white house has said they shouldn t have sent someone senior. secretary would have been there if he could. he s going there tomorrow as you mentioned. he s going to express condolences and have a number of meetings. chris, also as he said this relationship is much more than any one day or one march. no matter how important, certainly someone more senior should have gone. we ll leave it at that for now. let s go to something more important that s going on right now. how would you describe the men who committed these hoshlgrrible attacks in paris? i think we all would describe them as terrorists period. we ve been very clear about that. we ve said this was an act of terrorism. i know that there s a lot of talk about words and words are important, but what we re focused on is actions. working with the french to figure out how they were radicalized, who directed them looking at this new aqap video today looking out if it s authentic and real. words matter but we re focused on how you prevent this from happening in the future. right, but if the concern is to insulate moderate muslims from being lumped in with bad muslims, muslims who revert the faith, bastardize it for their own reasons, do you think it hurts the faith when these men and women identify themselves as muslims? we re not ignoring that. we have worked closely with the muslim community in the united states and france and encouraged moderate muslim voices to stand up and say, this is not our religion. they are not acting in the name of islam. no one is ignoring the fact that they claim to be acting in the name of their faith. what we re saying is that s a perversion of their faith. that is not what islam represents. more than what we call them what we re focused on is how you fight them how you hold them accountable and how you prevent this from happening again. but you think that not using the term muslim or islamic or islamist as experts are telling us is the most ak our raitt way to define them is helpful in the, you know other level of this war, which is perceptual which is about the ideas and the understanding that we have about different faiths? well look chris, absolutely. i think there are some differences of opinion among experts about what to call certain people and certain things and certain terrorists who act in the name of islam as they claim. we re not ignoring that fact at all. actually quite the opposite. we are working with the muslim community around the world to stand up and say this does not represent our faith. we are acutely aware of the fact that these terrorists try to use islam as a justification for what they re doing and it s not about us saying that s not acceptable it s about the rest of the muslim world saying that s not acceptable. let s go to the same problem in a different part of the world. nigeria. boko haram. horrific. about the worst we ve seen in terms of their tactics. they spare no one. why is the u.s. not more involved in the active fight against boko haram? well you re absolutely right. the reports we re getting are absolutely horrific about the level of violence in boko haram right now. we are actively working with the nigerian military to help them build their capacity to fight this threat. they need to step up and do more. they know that. the nigerians need to move ahead with elections. we know boko haram is trying to use elections as an excuse for violence to drive a wedge among the nigerian people and they can t let that happen. they need to stand up to these terrorists and say, we re not going to let you win. we re going to move forward with these elections. so we re working with them very closely, both military cooperation, security cooperation but also diplomatically to build their capacity to fight this. does it concern the united states that the leader good luck jonathan did not mention what recently happened with boko haram though he did condemn the attacks in france or at least offered his condolences to the french people? how does he ignore that? well secretary kerry has engaged directly with president jonathan in a number of phone calls over the past weeks and months to really work more closely with the nigerians on how they can fight this not just on the military side but as you said from a public side. perception matters as we ve talked about today and we ve talked about a lot before so obviously that s something we re talking to the nigerians about. how they can make very clear to their country, to their people how seriously they take this threat. it s an ongoing conversation chris. marie harf. thank you very much for being on new day and addressing the issues. happy to be here. security is heightened at u.s. air ports after al qaeda in the arabian peninsula published a how-to guide for making a bomb from items found in people s kitchens. rene marsh joins us from reagan national airport on how the increased security will impact all of us. what s the latest rene? rr allyson, i canice rr. reporter: alisyn if you are flying you should expect higher security. as far as passengers go you can see something where a tsa officer may swab your hands searching for explosive residue. this is all a part of ramped up measures happening at airports across the country. the concern is these nonmetallic ieds or explosionves that can make their way through certain airport scanners. the problem is only body scanners you know the airport screeners that essentially give you the outline of the flyer s body they can detect these nonmetallic explosives however, metal detectors cannot. we do know that the body scanners don t exist at all airports. some smaller airports only have metal detectors. if these explosives are nonmetallic, then you have a problem. back to you, alisyn. absolutely. that s what s so scary, rene. thanks so much for that update. there s more headlines. let s get over to michaela. breaking news. the fuselage the main body of airasia flight 8501 has been found. it is a significant development because that is where many of the passengers bodies are likely to be found at the bottom of the java sea. indonesian officials also report they have now successfully downloaded the content of both the cockpit voice recorder and the flight data recorder. new details about an alleged plot to kill house speaker john boehner by poisoning him or shooting him. the former bartender, 44-year-old michael hoyt is now undergoing a mental evaluation. he was indicted on charges that he planned to kill the speaker after being fired from his job. two parents of students killed at the sandy hook elementary school are suing the school district. the connecticut school district claims it has made major changes to keep children safe since that december 2012 shooting. talk about cutting out the middleman. check out this dog. black lab mix named eclipse loves going to dog parks so much she often goes without her owner, meaning she rides the bus without her owner. commuters on the seattle bus route apparently are so used to seeing eclipse riding solo sits in the seat like a human, knows exactly which stop to get off for the park and off she goes. i must know more. i kind of love this. does she have a metro card that she carries in her color. i think she slips under the carrousel. how did this begin?

well, alisyn it s very proper to be on heightened alert. we can t win the war in islamic terror on defense. we have to be on of fence. remember charlie hebdo magazine had been under threats. they had been attacked in the past. french authorities had protective members in place and there were still a massacre of 12 journalists and 4 parisian jews. we have to kill them over there before they come here. senator john mccain was on new day and he talked about what he thinks it will take to really put a dent in isis over there, and he talked about many more american soldiers on the ground. listen to this. we have to commit to really defeating isis and having a strategy to do so. that means more americans on the ground not from a large combat troops but a lot more americans on the ground to provide the capabilities that frankly iraq ri the iraqis don t have and there is a total absence of in syria. senator, do you agree that it will take many more americans on the ground? alisyn we re currently not winning our fight against the islamic state. we ve stopped some of their advances in iraq but again, you don t win wars on the defense, you win them on the offense. what does that mean? we need to increase the number of bombing missions that our navy and air force are conducting every day. those missions should be greatly advanced if we had forward air controllers on the groundworking with our local allies so they can sight in the bombs when they come in. we need to increase the presence of special operations forces as well because those are great force multipliers. as we saw in the early days of afghanistan. it didn t take tens of thousands of troops to topple the taliban. it took a few hundred troops on the ground to help the northern alliance get organized and become an effective fighting force. what we have to do is get on the offense. we are fighting to defend territory in iraq but take territory back and ultimately defeat the islamic state in syria where they started. what exactly are you talking about? sending in you say, what 500 more soldiers to iraq and how would you get them into syria? well, alisyn that s a matter for the professional judgment of our generals and admirals. that s something we certainly want to hear. it s going to take more force on the ground in iraq and syria to protect our citizens around the world and here at home. we just saw an attack in paris, similar attack like that could happen here in the united states. and islamic terrorists are on the offense around the world. that s why you saw an attack like you did in paris, why boko haram just had its biggest massacre yet. former taliban in pakistan and afghanistan are associating. they want to kill us here in the united states. that s why we have to kill them here first. you reported a closed senate intelligence briefing yesterday. can you share with us if you were told about any credible threats here at home? alisyn i can t share what we were briefed on in a classified meeting of the senate intelligence committee. i can tell you that the threat around the world is as great as it s ever been because al qaeda is on the march. they now control more territory than they did before the 9/11 attacks. this president has consistently minimized the threats of al qaeda. a year ago he called the islamic state the j.v. team. two years ago he said al qaeda was on the run and his re-election campaign said they were largely defeated. they re not largely defeated. they re on the offense. just yesterday the chairman of the senate intelligence committee richard burke told jay tapper that he believes it is possible that the kouachi brothers did have contacts in the united states. do you think that that s right? well senator burr and i obviously are monitoring the situation very closely and we re looking for all kinds of links, not just between the brothers that conducted the charlie hebdo massacre and americans but also with the terrorists in al qaeda and yemp men who just this morning claimed responsibility for these attacks. just as they were responsible for the christmas bomber five years ago. those kinds of attacks on american soil are likely if we don t get back on offense all around the world against islamist terrorists. are you saying it s time to send u.s. troops into yemen? we just sent u.s. troops into yemen into december to conduct a hostage rescue that unfortunately didn t work. we have to be willing to send troops or drones or any other national power to kill terrorists or capture them wherever they are if they pose a threat to american citizens and our interests around the world. senator tom cotton thank you so much for joining us with your perspective on new day. alisyn there is a new isis propaganda video showing a child killing two men. why is isis using kids to kill. and charlie hebdo s issue now released. the cover is perceived as offensive. what s inside the magazine?

[laughter] bulldog: that tickles! mattress discounters year end clearance sale ends monday. mattress discounters so isis has released a disturbing new video. it s propaganda. it appears to show a young child executing two hostages. cnn cannot verify its authenticity. hopefully it was staged. and obviously we re not going to show it to you. the point is this is what this group is about. it is not some brave band of warriors. they routinely recruit kids and use their images. this isn t something that only happens over there either. in chicago the mother of a teenager accused of trying to join isis sent the terror group a powerful message. take a listen. we condemn this violence in the strongest possible terms. we condemn the brutal tactics of isis and groups and we condemn the brainwashing and recruiting of children through the use of social media and internet and we have a message for isis and the social media recruiters. leave our children alone. leave our children alone. that is the reality and that mother s going to appear on a c360 tonight at 8:00 eastern. you re going to want to see that. how does this work? we have phillip mud. thank you for joining us mr. mu did dd. using kids it seems to be an act of weakness. why do they think it works for them? chris, it makes perfect sense to me. you have to understand isis is not a terror group. that s a western perspective. isis is a revolutionary group that wants to change society. they want to own geography in places like iraq and syria. as we heard moving into syria, change the role of women, education. they want to change culture and recruiting children is the way to change culture in the next generation. before you believe that this is odd, it s unusual, that it can t work look at how this has happened around the world in the last few decades. sri lank ka we ve seen efforts by abducting women in northern nigeria by boko haram. we ve seen this by the taliban changing the role of women in society. 24 is a group that s trying to stage a revolution. it s not a group solely focused on this narrow ban of terrorism. is there a chance of back fire? you ve been to these lands so many times. i have as well. these people love their kids just the way we do here. is there a chance they say, no, i don t want you to take my kid. i don t want you to make my kid a suicide bomber? there is a chance of back fire but it s a question of how much time you have to wait before you see that effect. for example, we ve seen a lot of success in somalia which i would have said in 2006 2007 is a very significant threat. we had kids from min knee app mow minneapolis going over to somalia somalia. african union, on the ground in somalia somalia, that wave of violence has been reversed by al shabaab. the problem we have chris, is in the west we want to say what s going to happen tomorrow what s going to happen next week. in my experience if you want to reverse this tide you re talking about 2025 2035. you re talking about a generation of military operations that are brutal to reverse what is not just a terror group to reverse a cultural revolution that isis is trying to spark. so how do you see it long term for a group like isis? this is an unpleasant conversation. let me give you two characteristics that i would expect to see not just because i m looking at isis but because i m looking at experiences in places like indonesia, the philippines, again, nigeria somalia. a couple of the characteristics. overtime believe it or not there has to be some conversation with some segment about reconciliation. i m not talking about this today. that is exactly right. let me tell you what i mean chris. i ll get a lot of hate mail. i don t like isis. i m perfectly happy to see drone strikes go after them but over the course of time if they represent a geographic space and if they represent some september be imt among the people you re going to have to find a faction of isis like we ve looked at within the taliban, for example, that says i don t like this extreme violence. maybe i can participate in some political process. now to be clear, that ain t happening today or tomorrow. that might be in ten years, believe it or not. the second and finally chris, let me tell you one thing that s going to happen in the interim. if you want to root out people who are recruiting and training child soldiers for the next generation what i have seen in places like cambodia sri lanka, nigeria, you will see over the next several years tremendous human rights violations as iraqi forces people object to it they say, no no it can t happen again. it will happen again. they can t just fight isis in the battlefield. they re going to have to go in towns and villages and root them out. i would predict that s going to lead to tremendous civilian casualties and human rights violations in the coming years. well look. that s a horrible prospect. we hope that you re not right, but this is your business. you ve seen it before. let me ask you something quickly about paris. yes. the concern is the u.s. intel community went from saying oh, no this is a parisian phenomenon with these guys saying oh, they re on one of our no fly lists. what s the chance they end up being connected over here politicians going sideways on us unknown, we don t know? what s the chance that this cell these brothers these guys over there wind up having had contacts in the u.s.? first, chris, if you want to talk about how politicians deal with terrorism in washington we need another show because i will go off on that. i m tired about the way they talk about things like sleeper cells in the united states. nonsense. if you want to talk about the issue of counter terrorism and data that might link the paris cell to the united states my guess is if you get one or two hops out, that is one or two steps out from the terrorists looking at phone and e. dmal at that e-mail data in the united states. one of them probably trained in yemen and was somehow a roommate of the underwear bomber who tried to take out an airliner five or six years ago. we re going to see some linkages in the united states. the question is how direct the linkages are. my guess is that they will be indirect and whether they suggest some imminent threat. in the age of data you re going to find some link even if it s not direct. one or two steps out from these guys in paris. phillip mudd what you have to say isn t always to hear but important to hear. thank you for joining us on new day as always. thank you. thank you. alisyn. the latest charlie hebdo newspaper selling out across france. we ll take a look at the first issue since the paris attack. runway.

what are the sellers saying about the magazine and selling out of it? reporter: well, we haven t sensed any trepidation on the part of the sellers. i ve been curious. as you know this cover is of the prophet of muhammad. any depiction of the prophet of muhammad is highly controversial and offensive. one person has brought it and put it atop the mass. this new magazine and the cover is selling on e bay for hundreds of dollars. people are putting it online for sale. new copies will start to become available tomorrow. we might see more along the lines for tomorrow. we talked to one person who said they ve been to eight different news stands in paris trying to get a copy and couldn t do it. even some people who don t believe in the values or the opinions or in some cases the vile sorts of cartoons printed in the magazine do want to support it. we ve heard that loud and clear today. let s talk about what s inside. i know you ve had a chance to look at a digital version. is it sort of their standard lamb basting everybody, religion of all kinds but also a tribute to the writers who were lost and the cartoonists? reporter: it sure is. it s a doubling down of their points of view. this is a proudly secular magazine rejecting all religions and mocking all relidge gongs having a lot of fun, in their minds, with laughing at the pope in the same way they laugh at muhammad or they mock islamic extremism. all of that is there. one of the few english cartoons is a rif on the phrase keep calm and carry on. it says keep calm and charlie on. there is a lot of appreciation that comes through in the pages for this country and this world s outpouring of grief and emotion of last week s attacks. the letter on the second page says charlie has made a lot of new friends this week. expect to see that slogan you mentioned on t-shirts and on places around the internet. talk to us here. folks in the u.s. are not going to be able to see the magazine in terms of get a copy of it. it won t be available here. are you sensing that the momentum is going to last overseas and around the world for the magazine? reporter: you know my wife was just saying that to me, mika ilmick mckayla. it appeared that it wasn t going to be seen. then they figured out an online release strategy so it was seen around the world for anybody who wanted to. i have a feeling we will get to that point with this issue of the magazine. a lot of folks in the united states are curious to see it for yourself. you re right, right now it s not on news stands or available. i think a distribution strategy might be in the works around the world. now whether this momentum continues into the weeks and months i think that s an open question. we know that the magazine has taken a week off, the staff has taken a week off. there will be funerals during that time. i expect more grieving during that time. they will be back at work on be a new issue later this month. it s not all business as usual. they have to deal with the trauma loss of colleagues mending, healing. i want to changing topics ever so slightly. follow me if you would. we ve heard of al-jazeera english which has an american counterpart in the united states. the editor sending out a communique to the staff. some are calling it an effort to minimize the paris terror attacks. what are you hearing? reporter: that s right. and now alg gentleman-jazeera is doing damage control. there was a series of e-mails internally that were never supposed to be seen by the public. they got leaked and have continued to leak out. they show a continuous debate at al-jazeera and whether it s appropriate to say we are all charlie, whether that s an accurate slogan or whether it shows a divide. there s been a controversy inside the news network. it s a real problem. al-jazeera is trying hard to be seen not as a middle eastern broadcaster. it wants to be seen in the united states and it s been very low rated in the united states for the past couple of years. they re trying to get traction. whenever a controversy occurs it s never good. they re trying to distance themselves. to that point, do you think it will have ill effects on the efforts. the numbers for them have been a challenge. they are trying to grow this brand within the united states? reporter: they are. i ve heard from a number of american employees at al-jazeera who say it s a very difficult situation they re in working there because they do feel like there s pressure from the network s owners in qatar to take a certain point of view. they want to be seen as being unbiased and totally balanced. these e-mails seem to undermine them. i recommend you check them out online. you see a vigorous debate internally how to describe the attack and how to treat it. all right. one of the issues michaela is whether it s appropriate to describe sorry. a little bit of a satellite delay. i ll catch you next time. we ll say good-bye until next time. thanks so much for your reporting there. reporter: thank you. all right. so how about this once a criminal always and in all ways a criminal right? wrong. we re going to show you an amazing thing that one young man did to change the cops impressions of him and change the life of one of them. it is the good stuff.

the self proclaimed proud perpetrators of this attack on the westboro baptist church was the hacker group that calls itself anonymous n. the end the westboro folks decided not to show up for the people killed at sandy hook. anonymous continues to run a fake facebook account dedicated to the group called the official westboro baptist facebook page y all. marilyn manson anonymous and captain crunch. the cover photo reads god loves cats. this n small part is what anonymous does. anonymous is a loose collective of anonymous vigilante hackers from across the globe and what they do is retaliate against pretty much anybody they don t like for any reason and do it on their own, often crude but usually pretty effective terms. in 2011 during the arab spring protests, anonymous took responsibility for hacking several government websites for the tunisian government. they hacked them in support of the arab spring protesters. in the past anonymous has shut down big, well-protected corporate websites like paypal and visa and mastercard and those hacks are not easy to do. after members of a local clan group, a local kkk group, threatened protesters in ferguson missouri a few months ago, anonymous launched attacks against a klan affiliated website in to twitter accounts affiliated with the klan announcing do not be afraid we are here for you and we will protect and serve you. we have the law now. agree with their cause du jour or not, anonymous does it their own way. anonymous now appears to have aligned itself in support of the victims of the charlie hebdo massacre in france. on friday s show we reported that anonymous posted on-line this grainy spooky video threatening that in retaliation for the terrorist attacks in france anonymous would basically destroy the on-line presence the web presence and social media presence of the terrorist groups responsible for the french attacks. this video had the guy wearing the fox mask which was a symbol of anonymous. it shows the guy acting out this monologue even though you can t see his face because he has the mask. he makes threats against al qaeda and a computerized voice to make the threat. the video they released on friday the voice they used in the video was speaking french. french language video. that was released on friday. now, anonymous released a new, much slicker version, as you can see, of the same threat. this time the guy wearing the mask is speaking english. the video is much less grainy. it is just as spooky has higher production values and in fact the part where the guy talks is proceeded by a long montage of moving images about the response in france to the terrorist attacks there. that said by the time you get to the end of the message it is basically the same. like the earlier video it ends with a threat against the terrorist groups. ny any organizations linked to those terrorist attack a s should expect massive reactions from anonymous. we are dragging you down. we will find you and not leave you any rest. after releasing that video, anonymous posted on-line a list of 70 twitter accounts which they basically invited their members and their followers to target. f alleged links to terrorism. they released a shorter list of websites with basically the same implied message to their followers. anonymous always described as a loosely organized collector of hackers around the world. it seems part of the way they are mounting this attack on terrorist groups in revenge for the french attacks is they have posted this list not just the twitter accounts but those websites posting that list and essentially pointing their own members and followers at that list of websites so that their own followers and members go after those websites and shut them down. just before we went to air, a bunch of websites on that list not all of them but a bunch did seem to be down. either they time out when you try to go to them or looks like their servers have been overwhemed, which is one of the most simple ways hackers take down websites on-line. one particular website appears to have been singled out for special treatment by anonymous. that website didn t just get a denial of service attack today. they got all of their would be viewers redirected to duck duck go. it has been described as being an on-line hub specifically for french islamic extremists. that may be why they received this special hacking attention from anonymous. that hack appears to have stayed up all day. a little vigilante justice operating around this story now. or that implies. this hack right, this anonymous attack on terrorist groups and their operations on-line, this is territory where isis and al qaeda and these other groups they are targeting are pretty well versed. this isn t a one-sided fight. it was a strange story that happened in albuquerque, new mexico, over the christmas break. it happened on christmas eve, first reported on christmas day. it seemed like a funny story at the time it happened but suddenly today the story became more relevant and less funny. something that happened on christmas eve to the website of the albuquerque news journal newspaper. website got hacked by somebody who was apparently an isis sympathizer and claimed to represent the isis terrorist group. why did they attack the albuquerque news journal? no idea, no explanation. that was part of what was funny about it. why that paper among all of the papers in the world? that was on christmas eve. they hijacked an article on the albuquerque journal news website and replaced it with this one. christmas will never be merry any longer. which is ridiculous. then they posted stuff like this you ll see no mercy infidels. we are already here in your pcs in each house and each office. with allah s permission we begin with can albuquerque. no offense to albuquerque, but why would anyone begin with albuquerque. it seems like a weird story when that happened on christmas eve. last week round two happened again. it was the same imagery as you can see. the same language. i love you isis all of that stuff. same stuff used in the attack on christmas eve, but the attack last tuesday i should say they also changed the banners it is the same imagery from the two attacks. same imagery on tuesday. again on tuesday, round two, the albuquerque news journal that got attacked. still nobody understands why. when we got round two, we also saw a random tv station in salisbury, maryland get attacked. wboc tv which is the cbs affiliate in salisbury, maryland. when they got the group posted this sort of weird message on christmas eve, right. in the second attack a last week, they posted a similar message a, not referencing christmas this time but a new year s message. infidels, new year will make you suffer. that was posted on the wboc tv station twitter account last week. that same message was posted on the website of the albuquerque news journal last week. i should mention even though the attackers managed to get their isis guy and the picture of the guy in the scarf, managed to get that up there again and take over the twitter accounts the way they had the first time around. when they tried to post this article on the albuquerque news journal website, they couldn t defeat the pay wall. they are able to do all of this stuff but if you want to read the article they posted called infidels, new year will make you suffer, you had to click through the consumer questionnaire on the newspaper pay wall in order to read that article. even international jihadist hacking has its technical limits and the technical limit is they can t get around the pay wall. it s weird. in some ways it is funny, funny strange as in an albuquerque newspaper and a salisbury, maryland tv station. why did they get picked? what s that about? it s also laugh outloud funny in terms of them not be being able to defeat the pay wall and the stupid messages they post. christmas will never be merry it is weird and worrying but also innate. the albuquerque newspaper and that tv station in maryland still have no idea why they were targeted, but now we know they appear to have been the warmup for the big event. because the big event happened today. at 12:30 eastern time this afternoon the twitter account for centcom was taken over by the same dumb i love isis picture of the guy with the scarf and the same banner used against the tv station and the newspaper in new mexico. for 40 minutes. whoever who hijacked the centcom twitter feed used it to post taunting messages like this to u.s. soldiers. and pictures of links that said what was classified information. as it turns out, what looked to be pentagon military plans for china and north korea turned out to be not that. for example, the map posted of potential north korean nuclear facilities turns out to be lifted from the website of the federation for american scientists. that s where they got that from not some classified pentagon database somewhere. other information is retired general officers from the united states army, including a lot of well-known retired generals. it s worrying to see a group like this posting personal information about retired generals from the u.s. army. but that s also not classified information that they somehow prized out of the pentagon s protected servers. that is publicly available if you know where to look for it. over the course of 40 minutes before the pentagon was able to get the twitter account shut down, the account posted we think, about ten tweets and they posted lots of files which they said were classified military material, but they weren t. they also uploaded two with isis propaganda videos to the centcom you tube page. by 1:10 this afternoon, the pentagon appeared to be back in control of the social media accounts. colonel steve warren a pentagon spokesman said nothing damaging to national security was posted by the group when they got their accounts hijacked. colonel warren said there is no evidence that any d.o.d. system network or computer has been compromised in any way. he said this is little more than a cyberprank. it is an annoyance but that is all it is. in no way compromises our operations. this isn t our website. this is just our account. he is right about that. this is twitter that was hacked and you tube that was hacked. this wasn t the pentagon s central servers. still it is discomforting to see the u.s. military to lose control of the you tube page and twitter account. the pentagon spent the afternoon trying to convince people the social media account they suffered wasn t a big diehl deal, nothing dangerous even if it was spooky. at the same time today, new york city officials were trying to convince the public that something else that happened in social media is a big deal and could potentially have really bad real world with consequences. you may have noted that a couple of notices went out department wide involving officer safety and also intelligence relating to a communication that went out late saturday on an isis twitter account. this was a message from the isis spokesman sheik adani who reiterated language that was posted in a threat in late september that said civilians, but also police officers intelligence officers and soldiers were all targets, legitimate targets, according to isil. and they were asking their followers wherever they were with to carry out those threats with whatever means they had available. the video that the deputy police commissioner there is discussing is a video released in september by isis. it showed the leader of the group calling on isis simple theser sympathizers to attack police and security officials in their own country. what happened in new york today is police drew a link between the uploading of the video, the isis stroo calling for attacks at home they drew a link between that video released in september and a number of attacks carried out against police and security forces in the weeks following that video s release. they specifically cited the hatchet attack on four new york city police officers in october, also the twin fatal attacks against soldiers in canada a little while after that and a few other incidents. they are not saying the incidents are necessarily directly connected to isis having called for attacks on police and soldiers in the west but say they are worried there is a connection. this weekend, somebody reposted the isis video from september but added footage from the killings in france. police now say given that given the resurfacing of the video and the additional stuff from france they say they are on alert that this renewed call from isis for low-level attacks in the west could be seen as a call to action. and countries around the world for that group s sympathizers. there is one other isis propaganda video that raised concerns of a different kind today. it was this one which was uploaded over the weekend via twitter. it appears to show one of the say sail atlantas from last week s attacks if france a man who killed a policewoman before attacking a kosher market shows him pledging support for isis and explaining why he did i want. nbc news has not verified when where or under what circumstances this video is taken. but in the video he assailant spouts propaganda that he seems to have printed out from a home printer, we blurred that out. he describes his attack as retaliation for isis. worryingly throw the video contains footage of this man s death, at the beginning and end, screen grabs and video from the moment after which police shot and killed that man as he left through the front door of the kosher market at the end of the hostage scene. the reason it is worrying the conclusion showing his death means he didn t upload the video himself. the video was completed by somebody else other than him after his death in order for it to be posted this weekend after he was killed. who did that? who added the death footage to that video and posted it? how did they have access to that video he made before he was killed? were they working with him all along? there remains an important question of whether or not this is an ongoing plot. french police said they are looking for six additional suspects who are linked to the perpetrators of the attacks including one who they say has been seen since the attacks driving the car that was registered to amedy coulibaly s widow who is at large and treated as a suspect in these attacks. she apparently left france and traveled to syria via spain and turkey but her car, apparently is still in france and is now being driven by somebody who french police are trying to track down. on it goes. nbc s richard engel is joining us live next from paris. the nissan rogue, with safety shield technologies. the only thing left to fear is your imagination. [ music and whistl huh, fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. yeah, everybody knows that. well, did you know that playing cards with kenny rogers gets old pretty fast? you got to know when to hold em. know when to fold em. know when to walk away. know when to run. you never count your money, when you re sitting at the ta. what? you get it? i get the gist yeah. geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. take a look at this surveillance video, it shows the fourth suspected accomplice behind the attacks in paris yet, hayat boumeddiene. she is inside the airport in istanbul, turkey. the man she is traveling with has been identified by french officials. you can see them at the airport s passport control desk with they get their discovery passports stamped and go on their way. this was taken january 2nd, before the attacks in paris. on that day in january 2nd hayat boumeddiene flew from madrid, spain to is stan ball and is believed to have stayed in a hotel in that neighborhood. after two days she is thought to have left and flown to the southeastern turkish city of it is now famous worldwide as a good way to get in to syria. it is at turkey s border with syria. intelligence officials monitoring hayat boumeddiene s whereabouts say they followed her phone signals from istanbul to the border city until last thursday, until a day after the attack on the charlie hebdo offices in paris. turkish officials say they believe she then crossed in to syria that day. that someday day is believed to cross in to syria. and the day that her husband killed a policewoman on the outskirts of paris and next day attacked a kosher market in paris killing four before he was killed in a shootout with french authorities. cool bab lab by and the kouachi brothers are dead now, killed by police but she is at large. bbc reports today that officials placed her last known phone call as coming this saturday from an isis-controlled town inside of syria not far from the turkish boarder border . police people are at large and sought by authorities including one man reportedly seen driving her car after she left it behind in france to make her way to spain and then to turkey and in to the isis stronghold of war-torn syria. joining us from paris is richard engel. thank you for being with us in the middle of the night. what do we know about the investigation? police say they look for as many as six suspects now. reporter: actually those that information is coming from leaks. there are two reports that say french police are looking for as many as six different suspects and that one of those suspects was seen driving her mini cooper around paris somewhere. when we contacted the official spokesperson for the french prosecutor s office here in paris, they won t comment at all. france is treating this like an ongoing investigation. they clearly are looking for people over the last 24 hours france has deployed 10,000 troops and police officers nationwide. about half of them in front of jewish schools, the 700 jewish schools that are in this country. france is worried that this is an ongoing plot, that there are more suspects. that s why it has done the biggest deployment of forces since world war ii. wow. in terms of the police and troops being deployed, as you say the bulk to guard jewish schools, so jewish facilities. do we have any reason to believe that they have specificity in their fears as an ongoing attack that they believe jewish schools are next on the list or are they surmising it is a likely target if there is a target? i don t know but i think it is a fair assumption especially when you look at the past history in testimony that cherif gave himself. one of the younger brother who was involved in the charlie hebdo attack. when he himself spoke to judges and prosecutors when he was arrested in 2005 he said that his initial goal was to attack jewish targets in france. then you saw amedy coulibaly attack the kosher market which he had scouted out the week bmpl an employee at the kosh canner market said they noticed him there, and noticed that he wasn t one of the usual customers at the kosher market here in paris. didn t think much of it and then thought a lot more of it when he showed up with his assault rifle and started taking hostages. so it s unclear if they have specific information to indicate jewish targets but given the past behavior of this cell that seems like a fair assumption. the charlie hebdo attacks happened on wednesday, follow-on attacks happened on thursday and beyond. that is when hayat boumeddiene was named as a suspect in the attack. she was named on thursday. should we be surprised that she was able to cross an international border two days after that when she reportedly crossed over from turkey in to syria? i know you have reported from urfa. we had you on the show reporting live from urfa as a portal in to syria. should it not be surprising she was able to cross that border? there have been so many intelligence failures. it is obviously easy to look back in retrospect but there are many intelligence mistakes in this. first the three dead militants, i m not sure we should call them suspects anymore. they have confessed to being involved in telephone call cans or video messages. all of these individuals were well known to authorities. yet, they were either ignored or they were under appreciated. that s one issue. then two, this is what happened with hayat boumeddiene, according to turkish officials. we don t know exactly when she left france or arrived in spain but on the 2nd which is significantly before the attacks began she arrived on the asian side there s two international airports in istanbul. she arrived at the asian side airport on a pegasus airlines flight, a small turkish airline. she stayed a couple of days there and made her way to urfa. all of this time nothing had happened there was no reason for the turkish authorities to particularly be following her, except that she had previous run-ins with french authorities. she had been questioned there are reports she was questioned for involvement with extremists here in france. the turks started to follow her. not at the request of france but thought tla there was something suspicious. they were keeping tabs on her phone, not physically because on the 8th she crosses in to syria in to a town which is very well known isis stronghold. it is absolute no man s land and they lost her because they lost her cell phone signal. they didn t have a body on her, just a casual trace on her cell phone. then after the french authorities put out their apb releasing her picture, putting it out to the public at that stage the turks got in contact with the french and said you know, we have been following this woman who s disappeared. this might be the woman you are looking for. why didn t the turks communicate this information that they lost track of who is w someone who crossed in to syria earlier to the french? should they have contacted the spanish because she was coming from madrid? there are many people who go in to turkey and there s a real problem with turkey right now with so many foreign fighters or so many extremists or so many people who go in to turkey and then just disappear. it s unclear the turks really knew where she was until she failed actually on the 9th to catch her return flight to madrid. it was on the 9th when that went out and on the 9th she missed her flight and they lost her tracking data the day before. so something fell through the cracks here. when you look back and i think when this will be investigated by the turks, by the french by a variety of authorities, they are going to see that even after a decade after 9/11 or over a decade after 9/11 which was supposed to be a time when all of the dots were going to be connected they were not connected. richard engel live for us in paris. thank you very much. really appreciate it. good to see you, my friend. much more ahead, including unexpected military news and some unexpectedly constructive normal news from washington, of all places. please stay with us. is tylenol arthritis lasts 8 hours, but aleve can last 12 hours. and aleve is proven to work better on pain than tylenol arthritis. so why am i still thinking about this?

[cheering] everything okay? we re here because you re about to have a heart attack. pete s heart attack didn t come with a warning. today his doctor has him on a bayer aspirin regimen to help reduce the risk of another one. if you ve had a heart attack be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. the streets are filled with people. at one point, somebody who has an apartment in the center of paris, an apartment overlooking the route of the march, they decided to entertain the many, many, many people stuck under his or her window. this person later posted the video of what happened to reddit. i heard the news about how huge the rally was in paris this weekend. i had read the reports of what it was like on the ground. until i saw this, this guy turning around his own stereo speakers to play john lennon s imagine not just in his apartment but out the window to the crowd below so they could hear it until i saw his video of the crowd hearing him do that i did not really understand how big it was or anything what it was like. all the people you may say i m a dreamer but i m not the only one [ cheers and applause ] it gives you an idea of the mood in paris yesterday. at what french officials describe as the largest demonstration in modern french history. after 12 people were killed at the offices of the satirical offices of charlie hebdo they said despite their staff decimated in that massacre they would post charlie hebdo on schedule this week. usual print is 60,000 economies and they announced this week will have not 60,000 print run but 1 million copies. after millions of people turned out in france this weekend to protest the charlie hebdo killings and the other terrorist attacks last week they have now announced the print run will be 3 million copies. and it will be printed in 16 languages, instead of just french. our own reporter interviewed to see what it is like working to make the next edition of the magazines in these conditions. the survivors are very shocked. the day was difficult for them to work to focus. there are very few now but because they know our crazy stupid guys who can kill they started again to work. caroline fourest talked about the cover of the new edition of charlie hebdo, which was released ahead of the scheduled publication date on wednesday. it is a cartoon of the prophet muhammad shedding a tear, beneath the words all is forgiven and he is also holding a sign je suis charlie. instead of me showing it to you is we operate under nbc news rules and nbc news will not allow us to show it to you. caroline fourest addressed that concern head on today. we had some other cartoons, more charlie hebdo, this one i knew because you are in america you are probably going to blur it which is crazy. let s talk about that. it is a debate going on in newsrooms around the world. it is true many stations including nbc news decided they will not show some of the covers are most offensive, particularly in the pictures of prophet muhammad. what is your response. it is the saddest news i have heard in the koechblg of charlie hebdo. thank you for staying in to the middle of the night to be with us. i really appreciate it. thank you, rachel. so we heard a bit obviously sorry, go aa head. the feel is what you are talking about. the people in the streets echoing what the remaining staffers and former staffers talked about. it is what we heard through the rally here. in terms of that specific discussion that you had with carol caroline fourest, is it a source of anger that news outlets see it as contrary to standards that particularly american news organizations, essentially are labelling it offensive and won t show it? the biggest surprise rachel is that people aren t ware of that here. even people within the community, even those who were part of this tightly knit family of editors of charlie hebdo. she was take en aback when i described the debate. we had a longer conversation about it, as well. she said it is one of the saddest things that i heard something indeed echoed by the widow of the chief editor. she was utterly shocked that countries were undertaking these standards and blurring out images as we have seen in england or declining to show the most offensive ones as our network standards mandate. she joined that chorus of saying that s one of the saddest parts. i think it is summed up best by caroline s thoughts on this. she said the fundamentists have won if the sensor in this way. in terms of your interview with the widow today, i guess i want to ask what her overall i guess what her overall position is right now. obviously, she s lost her beloved. she s lost she s lost her partner in life. it seems like she is talking she ended up talking to you about some other strange things that have emerged and around their relationship, ib including his family denying she was his girlfriend and some other things that have emerged since the killing. can you describe some of that to us? certainly. i think the most surprising twist in what she said was to remind the world that he was one of the most avid opponents of anyone who cracked down on religious freedom. he was an advocate. it was satirical of everybody and she reminded people he was in a relationship with someone from a muslim family and they stood for freedom in all forms. there wasn t in her view an anti-muslim sentiment there. that is something that critics would take issue. in terms of the spat with her family, it seems to be a personal side bar issue. she showed us pictures of the two of their relationships together, however you want to characterize it. they had been cohabitating much of the time. her child called him dad and she showed me home videos of her child doing that. she talked about their whirlwind romeo and juliet romance. and how their families didn t approve of that. no one could silence her, not politicians she worked with not the terrorists and certainly not family members. she was defiant as she was on many issues. and his legacy in the face of this terror and this attempt to suppress these images. ronan farrow joining us live from paris. thank you so much. his show is weekdays at 1:00 p.m. eastern here on msnbc. a lot to come including as i mentioned surprising news from the u.s. military. stay with us.

do we finally get to debate that war and how it should be waged? we have been waging that war against isis for months without making a formal decision about it in our own country. is now a good time to assess whether the effort has been successful thus far, particularly after what happened in paris. is this a good time to decide whether we should change course? joining us is senator murphy from connecticut. he has been calling for a vote to authorize strikes against isis since last summer. thank you very much for being with us. sure. do we know enough about what is happening in iraq and syria to be able to say that the pace of operations is speeding up that there s anything more intense about the way that isis is fought there? well, we certainly know there is significant military progress on the ground in iraq and syria. as you are reporting, increased activity over the last 24 hours. if you look back at the last 30 days you have seen progress on the ground and significant progress in pushing isil out of kobani and mount sinjar come under control of our allies. you have seen reports of tribes in western iraq expelling or beginning to take steps to expel isis. that s all good news. what is less certain is whether there is the political reform happening on the ground that is actually going to be the end of isis. that s part of the reason why congress has to have a debate about this. because we can hear reports of military progress, but unless it is accompanied by political reform, economic reform, societial reform on a place in the ground like iraq than a stalemate or momentum on our side doesn t help in the long run. that s why it is imperative to talk about this in the next several days and weeks. we are in a pivotal moment as military success is building but uncertain if there is a component of political success next to it. do you see a meaningful connection between the military fight against isis on the ground in iraq and syria and the international threat possessed by isis both through propaganda, prance through directly organizing foreign attacks and inspiring the fighters who we saw strike last week in france? i clearly think you are seeing a flow of foreign fighters back and forth in to syria and that s presenting real problems and threats to our allies in europe and the united states. it is important to recognize that individuals who carried out these attacks in paris were originally radicalized, not by isis but in coordination against the united states invasion and occupation of iraq. that s what initially brought them in to this fight. it s worth repeating that those who would call for another insertion of u.s. ground troops to fight isis would be essentially repeating the mistake that radicalized thousands of muslims across the country during our ten-year occupation of that country. i certainly think that isis poses a threat to the united states and our allies but we are living with a decade-long mistake in iraq that had ral callized thousands already, whether or not isis was present in the region. do you think there will be a vote in this congress sometime in this congress about authorizing what we are doing in iraq and syria and thereby subsequently debating it? i don t know. we took a vote at the end of last congress in the foreign relations committee and passed an authorization that did not allow ground troops in the fight, attempted to put geographic restrictions on it. you don t see any hustle in the new republican senatemajority to bring it forward. it doesn t look like the majority leader will spend the first few weeks working toward it. to many of us this is an extra constitutional conflict. we are outside of war powers act authorization. i do not believe and many others do not believe there is legal justification for proceeding without a congressional vote. every day we are not debating this is a day we are about kating our responsibility. thank you. we ll be right back. ooh.

welcome to the lead. i m john berman in for jake today. breaking news in our world lead. a major development in the brussels terror attacks. the man suspected of building the bombs that tore through paris in november and brussels yesterday, he may in fact be dead. cnn has learned that najim laachraoui is believed to have been one of the two suicide bombers who blew themselves up at the brussels airport killing at least ten people, injuring dozens more. this comes as the search is intensifying for this unidentified third terror suspect who failed to detonate his suitcase bomb inside the airport terminal. cnn has people on the ground in the belgium capital. let s start with the development over the last few minutes, word from belgian officials that laachraoui, the bomb maker, may be dead. reporter: belgian and french officials are telling cnn that they believe najim laachraoui, the man implicated in building the bombs that were detonated in the paris attacks is dead. bell began counterterror officials are in the process of cross referencing his dna, but at the moment their working belief is that he is dead. identifying najim laachraoui at the scene, placing him at the airport bombing scene is key, because it closes that loop on bringing together the overlapping between the network that carried out the paris attack and carried out this attack. just to recap a little bit for our viewers how important, how dangerous this man was believed to be. his dna was found on the suicide belt of the paris attackers detonating in france. back in january belgian counterterror officials told us they intercepted phone calls between him and abaaoud, the paris attack leader, where he was giving instructions. they believe him to be a key conspirator. he studied electromechanical engineering and that has been a great value of isis. but it s really coming together. investigators are overlapping them to try and figure out who else is out there. stand by. that s the latest. najim laachraoui believed to be the bomb maker in brussels and paris, but what about that third man in that picture we were just looking at, the man in the light-colored jacket, the man believed to have left the bomb at the airport. clarissa ward is with us now. clarissa, what are you learning about the search for that person? reporter: well, john, earlier we heard from belgium s prosecutor that there are still a number of people at large. these people may be armed, they may be dangerous. among them, the primary focus of the manhunt is, as you said, the man on the right in that surveillance video. he is particularly distinctive because he is wearing a light jacket, he is wearing a cap an glasses. you also might notice he is the only one of the three of them who is not wearing one glove. authorities believe that glove may have been used to conceal a detonator. we know that in his suitcase, which did not explode, there was a particularly large bomb, larger than the explosives that were in the other two suitcases of the two suicide bombers. it s not clear yet did he get cold feet, did the bomb not go off? authorities arrived on the scene afterwards and were able to do a controlled detonation so the explosives did not actually harm anyone. but at this stage we still don t know where that man is. there are a lot of questions now, john. we are learning more and more. najim laachraoui was wanted by interpol, he was on a red alert. the two brothers who are also attackers in these vicious attacks also had extensive rap sheets. so a lot of questions here as to why all of these men who were well known to authorities were able to slip under the radar and go undetected and carry out these attacks when this country was already on a state of very high alert, john. indeed. a lot of questions, as you say, clarissa ward. thank you so much. stand by in brussels. we re also learning the identities, as clarissa said, of two of the bombers. they are brothers. one blew himself up at the airport, the other behind the attack on the subway. let s bring in pamela brown. pamela, what is the latest on the investigation? john, as clarissa alluded to, there were warning signs about both brothers. turn turkish authorities are saying one of them was deported back to belgium last year for his ties to terrorism and the other brother has an interpol red notice that was issued this year for terrorism charges, yet both of them were able to wreak havoc in brussels yesterday morning. new details are emerging about the brussels suicide bombers. brothers and belgian nationals, ibrahim and cla reed bakraoui. the suicide bomber on the left has not yet been publicly identified and the unidentified man on the right dropped off a large bag of explosives before fleeing. translator: his bag had the strongest explosives. a few moments after the bomb squad arrived at the scene, the bag exploded. fortunately, no one was hurt by that bomb. reporter: an hour after ibrahim el bakraoui said off his bomb at the airport, his brother, khalid, detonated his bomb at a metro station in brussels. the taxi driver who drove the three to the airport led police to the brussels residence where he picked them up. inside, investigators found bomb-making materials, including as tone and hydrogen peroxide, detonators, a suitcase full of nails and screws and 33 pounds of the explosive called tatp, enough to make multiple bombs. in a trash can on the street nearby investigators found a laptop. on it, messages from ibrahim before the attack stating he was, quote, in a rush and if he takes too long, he will end up with him in jail. belgian investigators believe he was referring to salah abdeslam, one of the ring leaders of the november paris attacks who was captured last week. investigators believe abdeslam was likely to take part in the brussels attack, and after his arrest, the cell accelerated their plans. as the manhunt continues for additional suspects, officials warn the threat is not over. a war has been waged against us and we must be totally determined in fighting this scourge. we ve learned from sources there was chatter prior to these attacks indicating something was about to happen but there wasn t anything specific enough for authorities to prevent the attacks from happening. the concern now is that others in the men s network will try to launch more attacks in europe in the days to come. john. pamela brown, thanks so much. let s discuss this further. joining us now, our panel of terrorism experts. cnn national security analyst, julia, and former member of congress jane harmon from the house intelligence committee, also in charge of the wilson center. thank you all for being with us. julia, just over the last few minutes, so many more things have come to light. a lot of these threats starting to come together. the idea that the bomb maker, najim laachraoui blew himself up at the airport. the idea another one of the bombers left a will saying he was afraid of being caught and left behind 40 pounds of explosives unused in the apartment. what does this alltel y tell yo? it means last friday was significant, the arrest of abdeslam alive. he s not captured dead. and the suggestions throughout the weekend by brussels officials that he was not only cooperating but they were using the term collaboratingment as we saw in the suicide note that they felt that they were about to get caught. now, these are suicide bombers. they do not care if they die, they care if they are detained. so the arrest on friday sped everything up. and in particular, terrorist groups are organized in different ways but generally they have an operational wing and a technical and more sort of policy substantive wing. you never kill the bomb maker. it s a specialized skill. it must have been very clear to them that they did not have many moves left and he was willing to sacrifice himself. david, do you see it like that? you never kill the bomb maker. juliet was drawing a distinction between suicide bombers, the soldiers on the ground and the people behind the scenes developing the process to carry out the attacks. if this guy was behind the tatp bombs in paris and behind the bombs here, that is a sacrifice to that organization to lose him in these attacks. i agree with that. obviously he was a skilled bomb maker. his bombs worked in two major different terrorist attacks which not a whole lot of bomb makers out there can say that. the fact that he did die as a suicide bomber as far as we know seems to suggest that they felt the noose closing in on them just as soon as abdeslam was picked up by the sgloerts representative harmon, there is something else coming to light. the idea that the two brothers and now laachraoui will all know two officials. laachraoui and one of the bakraoui brothers had notices from interpol. one was deported from turkey to belgi belgium. so three guys were able to pull out a terror attack. what does that tell you? first, you never kill the bomb maker unless you have more bomb makers. possibly this guy who was, as i understand it, mentored by a brit in syria was one of a classroom of a students who can carry this on. there may be more waves of attack. but on your second point, that s very significant. retired general john allen, who was head of the coalition, the effort to form a coalition against the assad regime and others in isis and syria said that the criminal element has played a much bigger role in these attacks than we understand. these are not just trained terrorists, these are criminals. and the fact that these people weren t picked up, even though they apparently had rap sheets, as you just reported, shows me that we re not casting the net broadly enough. if we did, not we, but the belgians aren t. and if they had, we would have picked these guys up or certainly investigated these guys and found some really bad stuff. you never kill the bomb maker unless there are more bomb makers. i want to explore that in a little bit, so guys, stick around. plus coming up for us next, now that we know the suspected bomb maker for brussels and paris, the bomb maker may be dead. the question is what did u.s. intelligence know about this suspect and the other suspects beforehand? a member of the house intelligence committee who has been briefed, he joins us next. osteo bi-flex, g he s noticing a real difference in his joint comfort. as well as heightened levels of abject humiliation in his son. in just 7 days, your joint comfort can be your kid s discomfort. osteo bi-flex. made to move. (ricky gervais) verizon is the number one network in america. i know what you re thinking, they all claim stuff like that. yeah, but some of them stretch the truth. one said they were the fastest. we checked, it was fastest in kansas city and a few other places. verizon is consistently fast across the country. you wouldn t want to hear from the bloke who packs your parachute, it s good over kansas. do you know what i mean? so that s, you know. anywhere else, splat. only verizon is the #1 network for consistently fast speeds. and now if you buy a samsung galaxy s7 edge you get one free. at baas hard as the family everthat earned it. work that s why we re putting more food in our salisbury steak dinners and adding real cream to our mashed potatoes. so now. there s more to love with banquet. now serving. a better banquet. [eerie music] i am the ghost of cookies past.residue. oh.so gross. well, you didn t use pam. so it looks like you re stuwith me! bargain brand cooking spray leaves annoying residue. that s why there s pam. welcome back to the lead. belgian officials warning that other suspects in the deadly terror attacks could still be on the run and they could strike again. joining me now is republican congressman mike turner of ohio. he serves on the house intelligence committee. congressman, thank you very much for being with us. let me start with the breaking news, cnn learning over the halftime half hour that najim laachraoui, believed to be the bomb maker behind the paris attacks and making some of the bombs in the brussels attack as well, officials from belgium tell us that he is dead. are you hearing the same thing? certainly i m hearing from your reports, but i think your previous panel and my good friend jane harman made an excellent point. you don t lose the bomb maker unless you have more bomb makers. and that really i think is the issue here. the united states needs to turn its attention to. there s been lots of criticism for the president s strategy as looking at isis as contained. they re clearly not contained. we need to take them out and make certain that their ability to attack the west is diminished. congressman, you re privy to information that we are not. do you believe there are other bomb makers on the loose right now in belgium poised to attack? i think absolutely. i think the public is aware of that. the thing that s important here is belgium is just not prepared to be able to undertake the type of investigative look at tracking down these terrorists and bringing them to justice. they are going to need our help and the help of their nato allies. we ll certainly be there to assist them and track these people down, track down these terrorist networks and eliminate their ability to execute terrorist attacks in belgium and the united states. there was an interpol red notice for laachraoui and one of for one of the bakraoui brothers and one of the bakraoui brothers was deported from turkey to belgium. these three people, were they known to u.s. law enforcement? i can t speak to that, but clearly by the rap sheet you read they were known by the belgian authorities. there s going to be a lot of second guessing as they look to what actions they have been taking to people they know is a threat and what they need to do tomorrow to continue to protect the citizens in belgium and brussels. so david nunez says he believes americans were the likely target given that the attack may have happened near a u.s. airlines ticket counter. do you think americans were targeted specifically in these attacks? certainly if they sought out a specific counter with the symbolism of the name american, it certainly shows they re looking to try to hurt us. i was just at that ticket counter on sunday morning and i can tell you my heart goes out to thinking of all the innocent people who work there that they have targeted. but this really goes to the viciousness of the terrorists and the immediate issue of why we need to take them down. people are at risk, they need to be stopped. you know what, i know everyone is hesitant to criticize in a situation like this when belgium is still very much involved in a manhunt right now, but do you think belgium based on what you know and your connections within the intelligence community, do you believe they re up to this task? not currently. i think with the united states help and others they can be. certainly we saw from the attacks perpendicultrated from in paris, it was chosen because of the difficulty authorities have of tracking them down and taking them down. we need to do this. certainly not just europe is at risk, the united states is at risk. we need to go further and get the president to get a full-scale strategy together to take down isis. we can find training camps, shut them down and prevent future bomb makers and future terrorists from going to europe and the united states. congressman mike turner, appreciate it, sir. thank you. coming up, a rare and

other terror groups are still planning attacks, especially in crowded places. the new travel alert comes as we learn more u.s. citizens were caught up in the carnage yesterday. let s go to elise leavitt. this fieleels maybe more significant. reporter: that s right, it s not unprecedented but it s rare. the state department does not issue a caution like this lightly, particularly ahead of the summer travel season. but with about a dozen americans injured in the brussels attack and many more missing, officials warning isis attacks could be coming in europe and americans need to be extremely vigilant. with officials warning isis is on the loose and a massive manhunt under way, the state department is taking the rare step of urging americans to think twice about traveling to europe, warning that terrorists, quote, continue to plan near term attacks throughout europe, targeting sporting events, tourist sites, restaurants and transportation. a dire assessment ahead of the summer travel season. a former house intelligence chair says such a dramatic warning is likely the result of alarming intel, point to the possibility of more terror. what they know is probably brussels was not the only target set, paris was not the only target set. there are likely other target sets in europe. reporter: isis fighters, many trained on the battlefields of syria, are returning home to carry out their jihad in the west, sometimes infiltrating the influx of migrants fleeing the violence. brussels has important symbolic value and has emerged as a hub to gjihadis planning european attacks. the paris attackers capitalizing on lax security crossed into france from brussels, and the weapons used in the charlie hebdo attack were smuggled across the border. europe is a europe without borders and brussels is centrally located. that means that it is perhaps a platform where people come, meet, arrange, plan and that kind of thing. reporter: intel experts say belgium remains ill equipped to tackle the problem. they have nine different police districts. some of them don t speak the same language, they have a hard time sharing. intelligence is very old. reporter: the european union with no common defense or intelligence body has failed to share vital intel with belgium and the u.s. we re likely to have more plots. that doesn t mean they will succeed. we need to scale up extremely quickly the european response. reporter: and the state department just announced that secretary of state john kerry will travel to brussels on friday. in addition to offering condolences for the belgian people, he will also meet with belgian and european union officials to talk about the investigation and efforts to fight isis, including how the u.s. and e.u. can better work together on these threats. thanks so much. i want to bring back our panel of experts. paul cruickshank, juliette and jane harman, of the wilson center. paul, you re new to our panel and also deeply sourced in the belgian intelligence community. the news coming in najim laachraoui, the suspected bomb maker in brussels and paris, may be dead. not 100% confirmed, but if it is confirmed, explain to me what you re hearing about the significance. well, it would certainly be significant and the belgians think he s probably being killed, that he probably died at the airport, but they re testing dna and so on and so forth to be 100% certain. they actually do have his dna on file because they were able to establish his dna was at that bomb factory in schaerbeek in belgium used by the paris attackers to use those devices. they aren t 100% sure yet that he was the bomb maker. they think he s possibly the bomb maker but haven t conclusively made that determination yet. but if they have got the bomb maker, that he s dead, that would be extremely significant because this is the most dangerous guy in a cell, the guy that can build these powerful tatp devices which can create so much carnage and equip people to use it. i think if he was indeed killed, it may have been him cornered with the rest of the cell because they felt that the dragnet was closing in and this was a sort of, quote unquote, glorious last stand for them. juliette i want to talk about the state department warning to americans traveling to europe, all of europe, warning americans to be careful. if you ve got plans to go to europe for spring break coming up, how do you deal with this? the question i ve been asked by every friend of mine, every cousin, everyone, and i m sure all of us get that is what should i do? so the way to put it in perspective is there is always a level of risk when we travel. that s just the case because you re away from home, you re in airplanes and in places that are unfamiliar. the risk is slightly higher. it s not exceptional. it s not something we should run for but it s slight low higher. i m telling people now in the next couple days cinsince we do know what s going on, just wait a couple days. if you have plans next week, you should go. be vigilant and we smart. part of what the state department advisory is about is each of us who goes abroad has the capacity to reduce the risk to ourselves, but the world is things happen in the world and we should just be aware of that. representative harman, we just heard from congressman mike turner and he said something pretty chilling at the end of our interview. i asked him if he thought belgium was currently up to the task of dealing with what s going on in that country. the city of brussels has become the hub of isis terror in continental europe right now. there are terrorists perhaps on the loose right now who can be planning other attacks. i asked a member of the intelligence committee if belgium was up to it and he said not currently. that s got to be frightening. yeah, it is frightening. i think the belgians are trying hard. i certainly gave them a shoutout on monday when they wrapped up the what we thought was the last guy connected to the paris bombing. oops, he wasn t the last guy. oops, they didn t predict and should have that the airport and subways were soft targets. there was an uptick in security i m told in brussels over the weekend but not enough. belgium is a small country. 11 million people, nine intel agencies, three different languages and doing this alone makes no sense. europe does need to ramp up its cross europe intel capacity. we do have an intel representative in nato and that person is capable of helping to connect the dots across europe, but can t do it alone. so that s a worry. the other thing on this state department warning, let me say i think it s too general. there must be intelligence behind it, i agree with that. but someone just called me about his kid going to spain via an airport in paris tomorrow. it s a school trip. these school trips are hard to reschedule. and you can t be secure everywhere, but it sure would be nice to give more detailed granular guidance, especially to kids on school break. paul, quickly, what are your sources telling you about the current manhunt for others who may still be on the loose inside belgium. they re urgently looking for other people. there s great concern there could be more attacks in belgium, that this is not over. there s a significant number of belgians who went off and traveled and joined isis. there s a group of belgian and french isis operatives in raqqah who are talent spotting these young recruits coming in, giving them very fresh training, and then sending them back as quickly as possible to launch attacks. that is something that has come out in police interrogations over the last few months. police reports obtained by cnn. they are ramping up the accelerator and belgium is wearing the brunt of this right now. paul cruickshank, juliette, representative harman, thanks for being with us. a new feud brewing between donald trump and ted cruz, and this time you can call it

doctor if you have liver disease or are taking other medications because these may increase the amount of xifaxan in your body. tell your doctor if you are pregnant, plan on becoming pregnant, or are nursing. the most common side effects are nausea and an increase in liver enzymes. ask your doctor about xifaxan for ibs-d. welcome back to the lead. presidential candidates sharply disagreeing on how the united states should respond to the terror attacks in brussels. all that while the race between donald trump and senator ted cruz takes a bit of a nasty personal turn. cnn correspondent sunlen serfaty joins me now live from new york where ted cruz held a rally today. both ted cruz and donald trump have a little bit of a reason to celebrate after last night s voting. that s absolutely right, john. it was basically a split result. trump winning arizona, cruz winning utah. importantly there for cruz reaching that 50% threshold, so both walking away with all of the delegates in each of the states that they each won. as this campaign wages on, very clear that the terror attacks in brussels is going to continue to reshape their messages going forward. tonight, the terror attacks in brussels reverberating through the presidential campaign. we need unpredictability. gop front-runner, donald trump, saying he would potentially use nuclear weapons to stop isis. i m never going to rule anything out and i wouldn t want to say. even if i felt it wasn t i wouldn t want to tell you that because at a minimum, i want them to think maybe we would use it. trump also telling cnn s wolf blitzer that he would support waterboarding and other harsh interrogation methods. i think we have to change our law on, you know, the waterboarding thing where they can chop off heads and they can drown people in cages, in heavy steel cages, and we can t waterboard. so we have to change our laws and we have to be able to fight at least on an almost equal basis. democratic front-runner, hillary clinton, today outlining a contrasting counterterrorism agenda in california. we can t let fear stop us from doing what s necessary to keep us safe, nor can we let it push us into reckless actions that end up making us less safe. clinton taking aim not just at trump but ted cruz, who is calling for stepped-up policing of muslim communities in the u.s. it is that ostrich head in your sand political correctness that has made america so vulnerable. cruz earning a rebuke from new york city officials, including the police commissioner. he doesn t know what he s talking about. and the mayor. i just have to say it s reprehensible. his comments are not about safety and security, it s demagogue re. cruz pushing back today on new york soil. and the mayor s response is essentially who are these terrorists of which you speak? all this coming on the heels of a split decision in tuesday s western state contests. cruz also rolling out the endorsement of former rival jeb bush. what we re seeing all across the country is the momentum is with us. and i ll tell you one of the things that shows that is this morning, jeb bush endorsed our campaign. and as the trump-cruz feud intensifies, their wives are now being drawn into the fight, sparked by an anti-trump super pac facebook ad showing an old modeling photo of trump s wife, melania. trump tweeting cruz be careful or i will spill the beans on your wife. cruz denying that his campaign had anything to do with the ad. that should be beneath donald. reporter: heidi cruz also getting into the mix on the campaign trail in wisconsin. there are a lot of things that donald trump and his campaign say that have no basis in reality. reporter: while her husband borrows a line from the american president to punch back at his rival. you want a character to beat bob, you better stick with me because sydney ellen wade is way out of your league. if donald wants to get in a character fight, he better stick with me because heidi is way out of his league. and donald trump doubled down on this and even picked up on cruz channeling michael douglas saying lyin ted cruz steals foreign policy from me and lines from michael douglas. just another dishonest politician. cruz calling this gutter politics he calls a new low even for donald trump. if he wins the white house, it turns out that ted cruz will have a flower garden, just to goat more from the american president. let s turn to our political panel. joining us kevin madden, kristen soltis anderson and hilary rosen. kevin, we are going to talk extensively about what the candidates are saying about the terror attacks in brussels which is crucially important and this spat about who said what about who s wife says a bit small. but it s because it seems that way it s so odd they have all spent so much time talking about it. let s talk about the super pac ad. what did you think of that? i think, first of all, it s a tasteless ad. i think that s one of the big problems with this, is that in a sense donald trump is right, but also ted cruz is. let me explain. ted cruz is right in the fact that he wants to make very clear to donald trump forces that this is not an ad that he is in way affiliated. this was by an anti-trump super pac that is not affiliated with his campaign. and donald trump is right to think that this is a tasteless ad. where they re wrong, where donald trump is wrong is trying to attach this to ted cruz. i think ted cruz felt it was very important to come out and refute what he said about his wife, heidi cruz, and that this is in any way tied to his campaign. so look, but the bigger issue here, the bigger problem for both campaigns is here we are 24 hours after a major international event and neither one of them are spending the majority of their time talking about national security. this is a tremendous distraction from what should be their core message to voters. quickly, donald trump knows or should know this was a super pac ad that ted cruz isn t connected to, so why do you think he hit back so hard? ted cruz s message is i am trusted. this is why lyin ted is the moniker donald trump has thrown at him. he s pointed to things in iowa where there were allegations that ted cruz s campaign pushed this seedy narrative that maybe ben carson was dropping out of the race. that there was a mailer that seems not quite correct. there are all of these allegations that ted cruz is not campaigning on the up and up. this just gave donald trump one more i don t think fair but nonetheless it fit right into trump s narrative that ted cruz does not campaign in an honorable way. hilary, were you surprised to the extent ted cruz responded and the extent heidi cruz got involved in the response? no. the only thing you can do with donald trump really is push back and point out how tasteless he is. it will be interesting to see whether ted cruz takes the same view about attacks on bill clinton as he s taken about attacks on his wife. that s the first thing i thought about today. but look, spouses should be off limits, kids are off limits. run the campaign on the issues and every time donald trump does this, it just reinforces the worst narrative about him, which is that he wants this campaign to be about anything but the issues, particularly, as kevin said, in a day when people are taking the issues so seriously. guys, stick around because we re going to talk a lot more about that. ted cruz making an enemy of the nation s largest police force, the new york police department. will his comments about policing muslim communities in the united states, will they hurt him? then, new information about the second airport suicide bomber in belgium. we now know his identity. we re live on the ground in brussels with the latest. the gillette mach 3 turbo still feels better after 10 shaves than a disposable on it s first. mach 3 blades have twice the coatings. for a closer shave with zero redness. get

that song. let s get right back to our political panel. kevin, i want to start with you. all the candidates now talking about obviously what happened in brussels. i live in a world where i like to believe that all five candidates care deeply about america and want to keep this country safe. there is also a political element to what they say as well. ted cruz came to new york city and got himself in a fight with the new york city police department and the new york city mayor. the new york police department says ted cruz doesn t know what the hell he s talking about. that s the commissioner when ted cruz says he wants to patrol muslim neighborhoods. why do you think ted cruz is picking this fight in new york city? and i m asking you as a son of new york, a son of yonkers. how does that help him? right now the political element of tough talk resonating inside a gop primary, particularly in the space that we re in right now after a major international event, i think ted cruz is finding that extremely alluring. i think the problem here is that while mayor de blasio may look like an easy foil, you don t want to pick a fight with law enforcement on this. i don t think it s smart. i think the better response is to talk more to the fears and anxieties that so many americans have right now in a way that is unifying rather than a way that gets you into a back-and-forth with somebody like commissioner bratton. kristen, in new york state which has a primary in a month from now, is there an advantage to picking a fight with the liberal mayor of new york city? can you pick up republican votes perhaps around the city in the suburbs and upstate? i think another piece another element of why this is potentially advantageous for cruz is not just about picking fights with liberals but it s about the fears that americans have that kevin was just talking about. think about what happened after paris. we had this whole debate about what are we going to do about refugees and are we going to allow them in, are we going to increase screening. a lot of folks said republicans are going too far to the right on this and the polls wound up showing that americans thought, you know what, they took the politically incorrect position in the polls. so i think ted cruz is sort of betting that by coming out with really tough talk that may be divisive and may not be the sort of thing that you d want in a general election, you ll certainly be gaining voters within the context of a primary. you saw what it did for donald trump when he said he wanted to ban muslims. people in state after state approved of that. hillary clinton gave a speech, much like she s given before. she took the opportunity to give a similar speech on national security and how she would fight terrorism. this on a day she won one out of three states. bernie sanders won two states handily by 75% or higher. what do you think hillary clinton is doing? right now hillary clinton feels incredibly responsible to be the grownup in the room. she is trying to give the american people the alternative they want to the rhetoric that trump and cruz are espousing. so, you know, in many respects it s important for her to play this role, to give these messages. what bernie sanders says about her isn t particularly relevanth now. what she wants to do is make sure people know that she is prepared to be commander in chief on day one, that she has put out a plan to defeat isis and that she understands that rhetoric that divides americans will not help the situation at all. kevin madden, kristen, hilary rosen, thanks so much for being with us. appreciate it. we re going back to brussels where officials are warning that the potential terror threat might not be over. our nick paton walsh is on the ground there. nick, what are you hearing? reporter: we know now the names of two most likely of the three men pictured inside the airport. two went to blow themselves rem questions about how safe the city of brussels can feel. stay with us. i know what you , they all claim stuff like that. yeah, but some of them stretch the truth a little bit. like this. faster, more reliable and better coverage than ever. and it shows the coverage there. uh, oh, hold on. oh! map is not a depiction of coverage! well, then what s the point? i m speechless. only verizon has the largest 4g lte network in america. and now if you buy a samsung galaxy s7 edge, you get one free. the possibility of a flare was almost always on my mind. thinking about what to avoid, where to go. and how to deal with my uc. to me, that was normal. until i talked to my doctor. she told me that humira helps people like me get uc under control and keep it under control when certain medications haven t worked well enough. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you ve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you ve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don t start humira if you have an infection. raise your expectations. ask your gastroenterologist about humira. with humira, control is possible. and clean and real and inside jokes and school night. good, clean food pairs well with anything. try the clean pairings menu. at panera. food as it should be. you re looking at live pictures right now of the place de la bourse in brussels. this is crowded of people out in defiance. the heightened security presence, the active investigation under way. nick patton walsh is there. there s new information unfolding every minute. police still don t know how many people they re looking for connected to all of this? reporter: absolutely. we do know they are looking certainly for two individuals. let s run through what we do know. the key image many have seen of those three men inside the terminal at the airport, we know the man in white is still on the run and they believe the two men in black are ibrahim el bakraoui and ma jetstrenajimlaachraoui. he is said to be linked to the paris attackers, the key bomb maker. the question people will be asking themselves is if that is him in the picture and he did blow himself up, why? he perhaps felt too much on the police radar. why did he take all his expertise in bomb making to his grave there. but also to one man who was with salah abdeslam, h is still on the run as well. questions really about how it was possible such a well-known fugitive like najim laachraoui could be involved in these attacks and how so many of the other individuals have not come across police radars at all at some stage. nick, you drove from brussels to paris today. given the manhunt under way and given all the security concerns, what was that drive like? was there an increased presence that you sensed on the road? reporter: well, it is remarkable, john, frankly, given the fact that paris and brussels have been subject to such awful terror attacks that there isn t a sense of increased security when you make that drive. the same drive that salah abdeslam did. that s the nature of the european state but when we drove through it ourselves it was remarkable to see the only real notion of changing country was the mobile phone provider changing on your phone. so a very tense situation here but not one where you feel there s an overwhelming security presence, john. that is the essence of the european union, but it is something that people are looking at right now as possibly something that might need to change in some ways to keep people safe. nick paton walsh from brussels, thanks so much. that s all for the lead today. i m john berman in for jake. now turning you over to wolf blitzer in the situation room. happening now, frantic manhunt. the search is on for a suspected bomber who escaped from the scene of the brussels airport attack. who is the man in the hat? what role did he play in the deadly terror strike? tracking the mastermind. who planned the massacres? is he still out there? and what about the isis bomb maker tied to both the paris and brussels attacks? did he design a powerful new explosive device that poses a much greater threat to soft targets? secretary of defense, our exclusive interview with ashton carter who says america will be stepping up the fight against isis. but is europe doing enough? and politics of fear. the presidential candidates weighing in on the terror attacks, suggesting everything from mass
