t, you must acquit. that wasn't his line. there was so much infighting in the defense team. allen dur show wits said we weren't the dream team. we were the nightmare team. it was coined by a professor. >> drama of the century tonight at 9:00. keira, thank you very much. now to jake tapper "the lead" starts right now. a brand-new look at the chilling moments that paralyzed paris. i'm jack tapper. this is "the lead." the world lead new video. another french terrorist is in custody. can he tell police just how many more would be jihad iis are there out there? plus airline passengers under more scrutiny as the department

of homeland security warns that al qaeda could have a new often undetectible for blowing planes out of the sky. and the pop culture lead. they called him the devil of ra mahdi mahdi. his gun put more fear into the heart of terrorists than most bombs. now chris kyle "the american sniper" his story hits the silver screen. it could earn bradley cooper an oscar. we'll talk to him and chris kyle's widow this hour. good afternoon, everyone. welcome to "the lead." i'm jake tapper. we'll start with the world lead and new information about the terrorists who killed 12 at "charlie hebdoe." in the video, you see and hear the two masked men, cherif and said kouachi in the moments after the massacre at the

magazine. the video emerges as another alleged terrorist was april rentded and an al qaeda-linked group group, the terrorist group's north africa group, promised new attacks in france. let's get right to cnn chief national security correspondent in our paris bureau following all of this new information for us. jim, what can you tell us? >> reporter: jake, one of the most alarming moments in the new video is when you see the terrorists calmly and patiently reloading their weapons in broad daylight on a downtown paris street. this is after they committed that massacre inside the offices of a charlie hebdoe" and before they engage with police down the street. of course they go on to elude police for two days before they were caught and killed a sign of just how much these attack ss

shocked. the gunmen cherif and said kouachi slowly reloading their weapons as they leave the murder scene. one of the gunmen raises his finger in the air possibly a sign of defiance often used by islamists. later down the street you see them come face-to-face with french police. the moment before they executed a french policeman. it's a chilling change from six years ago when one of the attackers, cherif kouachi, covering his face as he exits court proclaims his innocence. he was on trial for recruiting jihadists to travel to iraq. >> translator: the whole thing is set up. we're just young kids from the suburbs. we get passionate. we talk like this but there's nothing more. we did nothing wrong. >> reporter: kouachi was found guilty and sentenced to prison. french police are frantically searching for other members of

the cell at large. today a -- was charged with terrorism in court in bulgaria, captured on his way to syria. bulgarian officials said joaquin was in contact with kouachi several times and left with his son before the attacks. the partner of kosher market attacker amedi coulibali is now believed n syria, but this man is still being searched for spotted with her. he is blefred by french thor authorities to be part of a jihadi cell and is still at large. with police in france protecting prominent locations, police from new york washington and los angeles showed support by visiting the "charlie hebdoe" memorial. >> two police officers lost their lives that day, one just down the street here. what comes to mind as you come to the memorial? >> it's just horrific a real tragedy. i think laup enforcement all over the world is grieving for the french and this isn't a

problem justor for france a problem just for europe. it's a global problem. >> reporter: "charlie hebdoe" will come out with a new edition tomorrow. it will include cartoons drawn by some of those cartoonists and editors who were killed last week. 50 times the normal press run of 60,000 some 3 million copies. jake almost one copy for all of those people who turned out across the country, across france on sunday to show their defiance in the face of terrorism. it's a big moment again tomorrow for paris and for france. jake? >> jim, thanks. i assume you'll pick me up at least one copy of "charlie hebdoe." i want to go to barbara starr live at pentagon. the kouachi brothers carried out this attack with high-powered weapons that don't normally come cheap. you've been trying to trace who paid for this terrorist plot who financed it. what have you discovered? >> officials are telephoning me they are increasingly convinced

this was al qaeda in yemen the major influence on the fwo brothers. the question now, did that group in yemen actually pay for this attack? there are media reports suggesting that they paid tens of thousands of dollars to the kouachi brothers. we know two things. we know that cherif just before he was killed gave an interview to french media where he said that his trip to yemen at least was financed by anwar al aawlaki aawlaki, the late leader of the al qaeda in yemen. we also know shall we say this colleague of cherif's amedi coulibali, he said he had given the brothers money to finish their preparations to carry out the attacks. all of this is part of forensics essentially for intelligence services around the world. they start with how did the

attack look? and what did it take to make it happen? what did it take? what kind of money financing, and organization? and who could have given it to the conspirators. >> barbara starr, thanks so much. john berman is in the streets of paris right outside the offices of "charlie hebdoe." john a very somber day there. an ed for for "charlie hebdoe" spoke to reporters today, very emotional. what did he have to say about the magazine, about his lost colleagues? rfrnlts it was very moving. i was actually there. this was a press conference not held here behind me at the offices of "charlie hebdoe" which were so bruteally attacked. they have been working out of a competitor. they have a new issue coming out tomorrow morning. they held a press conference there to a packed room of reporters. a cartoonist who survived the attacks here only because it was his birthday only because he showed up late to the office

here, he explained the inspirationor for the cover, which as we all know is the prophet muhammad with the words "i am charlie" on his chest. most importantly, he said he drew the attention to the tear muhammad is shedding in the cartoon. he explains it. i want you to listen to this. >> translator: and i looked at it and he was crying. prophetve and then above i wrote, everything is forgiven. and then i cried. and that was the cover page. we'd found the cover page. we'd finally got this wretched cover page and it was our own cover page. it wasn't the cover page the terrorists wanted us to produce. there are no terrorists. just a man who is crying and that's muhammad. i'm sorry we've drawn him again, but the muhammad we've drawn is a man who cries.

>> reporter: so this new issue is filled jake with all kinds of irreverence, the kind of irreverence people would say offensive cartoons and subject matter that "charlie hebdoe" has been known for for a long time. but the first two pages are devoted to the artwork of those who were killed here. i find that to be such a moving tribute, jake. instead of blank pages to honor or remember those who were lost their absence, they're filled with cartoons to show their continued i would say everlasting presence. >> john berman in paris, thank you so much. turning now to our national lead. it is still early, but the investigation into last week's terrorist attacks indicate that the kouachis may have been motivated by al qaeda's official jihadi magazine "inspire," the same paint by numbers guide to terrorist attackers that allegedly taught the boston terrorists the tsarnaevs, how to make a bomb in their mom's

kitchen. now another inspired has the department of homeland security scrambling to prevent the next attack in the united states. let's bring in pamela brown. pamela what's causing u.s. officials to step up security? >> hard to detect bombs has been a long concern. now there are new fear bz this. dhs is ramping up this airport security after this renewed push by al qaeda in yemen to activate extremists living here in the u.s. they're asking them to create a new type of hard to detect bomb with the goal of bringing down an airplane or wreaking havoc at the airport. amid renewed fears of hard to detect bombs like these being smuggled onto commercial flights, the u.s. is expanding random security checks of passengers in u.s. airports once they've already made it through airport security. that could include another bag search passenger pat-downs and hand swabs for traces of explosives.

>> one part is the potential threat for airplanes, the other is a threat to passenger whoz are cueing up in a security line and somebody is trying to bring a bomb maybe rudimentary device along that could blow people up in the security lines. >> reporter: the stepped-up measures are partly responsive to "inspire," laying out a new recipe to concoct non-metallic bombs with household products. u.s. government officials says airport body scanners can normally detect these explosives but the advanced technology is not available in some smaller u.s. airports. >> they say even if this doesn't get through airport security enough fuss will be made about the people attempting to do this that it will spread terror in the west and their aims will be achieved. >> this move comes after enhance enhancedenhance enhanced security measures over the summer put passengers through additional scrutiny such as turning on their electronic devices to prove they weren't

hiding explosives. following the latestor terror attacks in paris and renewed efforts by isis to target u.s. government officials, dhs is also stepping up security at federal buildings in more u.s. cities as u.s. law enforcement is being asked to stay on a heightened state of vigilance. law enforcement officials i've been talking to today say there is a heightened concern among them because, to them, it seems more plausible today for someone influenced by these current events some sort of terrorist propaganda like isis is pushing to act out. as a result, sources i'm speaking with are saying certain cases are going through perhaps more scrutiny than they may have before. >> interesting. a few weeks ago we had jay johnson on, secretary of the department of homeland security. there were reports that dhs is contemplating banning all carry-on items. i asked him if that was true. i kind of expected him to say no, of course not. and he said we have no plans at

this time. it was one of those very the door was wide open. >> and i think that there is this ongoing concern about these hard to detect bombs. even if they do more bag searches at the gate jake i think some people may say, these are household products hard to detect is that really going to do anything? it will be interesting to see if they do more. what they've put out there, jake we know there's more to this they aren't sharing obviously for national security purposes. >> pamela brown, thank you. an ominous warning from the chairman of the senate intelligence committee richard burr. he says an attack like the one we saw in paris could become a weekly event here in the united states. why is he so concerned about recent chatter on social heed area from terrorist groups and potential lone wolves? we'll ask him about it, next. please, please, please, please, please.

our national lead now. increased concern about the terrorist threat to the homeland. intelligence officials in the united states remain on alert after last week's attack that killed 17 innocent civilians in france. richard burr is the chairman of the senate intelligence committee who joins us on set live. mr. chairman congratulations 0 on the new post. we look forward to having you on the show a lot. obviously dhs stepping up screenings at airports across the country. is there any credible threat known right now to the intelligence community? >> there's not a known credible threat that's out there, but what we've been able to accumulate over of the last six days is a tremendous amount of data the result of who said and cherif might have communicated with by telephone, by e-mail. then one other attacker and the female that's in syria today accessing their communicationing

and those nodes are going to give the french tremendous capabilities give us tremendous capabilities. >> is there anybody in the united states that the kouachi brothers or any of the others involve nd thed in the attack that were in communicate at all or anyone who was thought to have been in yemen at the same time any of them were? >> too early to answer. the question was asked today without an answer. we're still running a tremendous amount of data. i think it's likely that there will have been some u.s. connections that were made. maybe it's individual if we know about it. maybe if it's individuals if we don't know. the reality is we have to triage all of that information. >> we've now learned the kouachi brothers who carried out the attack against "charlie hebdoe" and amedi calloulibali who killed in the supermarket were well known to u.s. and french intelligence officials. was this a failure, do you

think? >> i don't think it was. we'll wait for the full scope to be determined. but i think what we're going to find out is that when you've got 500-plus individuals who have traveled to syria and fought and trained and come back that are french citizens when you've got other threats that emerge and you've got a limited capacity to follow people remember that one of the brothers participated in an act that put him in jail in 2010. >> recruiting jihadists to fight in iraq against america. >> worn an ankle bracelet for some peerriod of time. but then went through a period where he gave authorities no reason to continue to surveil him. and without intercepting something, it would have been inimpossible for them to make a decision to start surveillance process with them. >> xblain what you mean when you said recently that you believe attacks like this like what we saw in paris, could become a weekly event in the united states. you really think that's where we're headed? >> i'm not sure i would limit that to the united states.

i think globally i'm concerned that the tempo that we see is up. that means that we're vulnerable the entire continent of europe is vul initial. that seems to be a focus. when isil goes back on the social media and puts out this plea for people to attack military officers and police officers and elected officials and this type of thing, what they're doing is they're trying to raise the temperature and the tempo. when you come off of as horrific as what paris saw, an event that clearly was coordinated individuals who were trained, and with every reason to believe that there were instructions several years earlier to carry out this act against an individual not necessarily the magazine but the individual. and all of a sudden it happens three years later. that's a hard thing to detect. >> you know things that the rest of us don't because you're prify to top secret classified briefings auz ss

briefings. what keeps you up at night? what do you worry about? >> what i don't know. there are a lot of things we know and we're the best in the world. and as long as we have a cohesive international intelligence sharing information effort then i feel great. but it's the things that we don't find out, the things we don't know the people we're not looking for because nobody's given us that dot to connect. and i think it's safe that our intelligence community today is struggling to uncover every rock and to look at every possible avenue that they can. but do remember that the information we get from the paris attack is not the single threat of information that we're chasing out there. we're chasing things that come out of corsan come out of isil. we're still very aggressive in pakistan with core al qaeda efforts. i think what we're seeing is north africa pick up as a real

trouble spot because of the recruitment of terrorists down there is somewhat easier. >> food for thought. very concerning. thank you so much the new chairman of the senate intelligence committee, richard burr. coming up a marksman so precise he said he single-handedly may have killed over 160 insurgents in iraq his story told in the movie "american sniper." next i'll speak with his widow and the man who plays him, the star of the show bradley cooper. plus one more step toward why airasia 8501 crashed. what were the pilots staying right before the crash? and former military members and their families is without equal.

welcome back to "the lead." our pop culture lead. "american sniper" opens this friday. nationwide it's creating oscar buzz. it tell it's the story of chris kyle his claim to fame is he had at least 160 confirmed kills, the most in u.s. history. he served four tours in iraq. his struggles with the war, the memories adjusting to civilian life are all really quite

incredibly chronicled in the new film based on his best-selling book by the same name. let's take a listen. >> you say a woman and a kid? >> can you confirm? >> negative. your call. >> they fry you if you're wrong. >> tragically chris kyle died in 2013 at a gun range. the fellow iraq war veteran accused of killing him will go to trial next month. kyle was reportedly trying to help him with the post-traumatic stress. join\ing me is kyle's widow and bradley cooper who stars as kyle. nice to have a fellow philly boy on the set. it is a remarkable film. you just came from walter reed talking to wounded warriors. what was that like? >> it's always inspiring. these guys not only sign up to

serve but get hit with something that would flow most people off track completely. they have such strength of character and spirit. i find it painful but inspiring. their attitude is so good. >> i know veterans have concerned about seeing a movie like this that's so accurate i imagine replicates battle. how did they receive it? i know they're watching it now. >> exactly. we just met all of them before we went to see them. even if it is initially shocking hopefully after a while it heals because in any sort of dlat matic situation if you don't feel alone ultimately it's healing. that's the thing that clint and i talked about and the other producers making a movie that is authentic and people who are going through this don't feel alone. but potentially those who don't know, 1% of our population are affiliated with the military of the united states. it's not something people are aware of. hopefully this movie can educate those of us who aren't familiar

with the mriest of a soldier or the soldier's family. >> to fill the chasm that 99% of us don't know. so remarkable in the movie and the book you're so brutally fraifrpg. but you also wrote part of the book. he hands it over to you and lets you have your say. one of the things is the distance. when he comes back and how tough it is for him to adjust to quote unquote, normal life. you're very honest about that. >> it's a real thing. the biggest blessings in the book and movie is military couples identify they've had the conversations. sometimes stepping outside yourself and hearing somebody else have the conversation is eye-opening. i hope it continues to help that dialogue between couples. we all go through it at some point. >> bradley, i have to say the confirmation transformation was pretty remarkable. you're a fancy boy from german germantown academy in

philadelphia. but you are so convincing in this role -- >> not so fancy. >> -- as this bad ass from texas. you put on 30 pounds of muscle. your schedule was -- 6,000 calories a day. >> upwards of. >> and you took dialect coaching? >> chris had a wonderful way of talking, and i know that so many people who knew chris and also his family were going to be watching this ging movie and his children. it was a big part of who he was and why we loved the story so much. taya and chris, two very charismatic individuals. the thing that made chris so great is this huge impassing individual but this lilt of voice that put you at ease. so i had no choice.

i had to get that big- >> how did he do? he's playing someone that you loved very much. >> bradley did an amazing job. i truly don't believe there's anybody who could have done better. i -- the mannerisms the way he was holding his head in certain ways where he would walk a certain stride everything. >> didn't you give him a pair of chris' shoes? >> yeah. he had his own that were like chris' hiking boots and cowboy boots. but truly -- i don't want to embarrass bradley by going on too much. >> embarrass him. >> all right. but when people see the movie, chris' friends, the word that keeps coming up is eerie. they say it's eerie how much it felt like chris. i think it's because it wasn't just the words and it wasn't just the actions. it's like the spirit of chris is exuding from bradley as he's playing this role. >> you've said that the spirit of chris was in you and left you

a few weeks after. >> not to get too hokey about it but it definitely felt like somebody was watching over the whole production of the mostvie. it was a very daunting task to play the legend. aloft people came up and were very clear they didn't think i could do it. and i thought, wow, every day i'm going to be so scared that i'm not really chris. there were real vets who knew chris on set. >> chris' dad said he would drag you behind -- >> as well as chris. one time chris said that, too. that was just to drag the pretty out of me. that wasn't a threat. that was just part of the process. but i've got to say the first day i showed up on set, i felt completely at ease. i actually felt like chris was right next to me the whole time. i really did. and everybody -- i never felt anyone ever sort of treat me in a way that i wasn't chris while they were shooting the movie. >> i don't know your personal politics at all, but chris was very conservative. it comes across in his book his

view of the iraqis his view of patriotism and the united states of america. and the movie doesn't gloss over that at all. it's crisp through and through, the voice in the book is his voice in the movie. was it easy to get it made in hollywood, which is not exactly noenl for promoting conservative values? >> i don't see this movie as a movie that promotes conservative values at all. nothing clint and i talked about. chris talked about the book openly. i really focused on the source material that taya gave us and all the interviews chris did. so many things that you could find with him and all the home videos. and the thing that dlintclint and i wanted to make was a character study. if someone wants to use this for their own political agenda that's up to them. >> i don't mean it in that way. >> it's not a movie about the iraqi war. >> it's about one man. >> and hopefully if we tell it accurately other servicemen and women will say, wow, that's actually something i can relate

to. it's about the struggles people go through being at war and being at home. more and more military vets are coming home because of medical advancements. we have to take care of them. that's -- if there's any message at all, that would be a little keyhole into the world of a vet. and their family as importantly. >> and just so people know if they don't, when you talk about clint, you're talking about clint eastwood, the director of the film. there's a great scene in the book and the movie where you are driving in the pickup truck with chris and he's talking about -- he's so frustrated with the american people. i think he just got back from his first deployment. everyone is talking about nonsense in his view. no one is talking about the war and sacrifices being made. i've heard that complaint from soldiers time and time again. a friend of mine who served in afghanistan, talking about how mad he was, somebody was getting mald because there wasn't enough foam on their latte at starbucks. can you believe that? that's part of his life. >> that saying you know

america is at war and the people are at the mall. you know, there's a disconnect. but i would have to agree with bradley there really isn't any political slant. there wasn't really in the book i didn't feel. there's just a universal experience. my feeling is it doesn't matter what country you're in and it doesn't matter what deck i'd aur r you're from. if you're a human being and going to fight for your country and you have somebody who loves you, some of this experience is going to be relatable. it's sort of a picture of humanity and what we go through when we fight for something we believe in and are respected for it and we have to fight to find our way back to each other. >> one quick thing about chris, that latte thing. i loved studying him the way i did. uf never get the opportunity to do that. i loved to see how his views changed because he talked very much about that exact subject. when he first got home how irate he would be at this. then like a year two years later -- for two years he was not in such a great place. then he started realizing -- correct me if i'm wrong -- i was

fighting for people's ability to worry about the latte. that's a beautiful thing. >> right. >> that we could be over there doing something to allow civilization to occur in a way that people can think about other things. >> it's a very important movie. i hope everybody goes to see it. it's such an honor to have you here taya. thank you, bradley. good luck to both of you. read the both too. an american cartoonist on al qaeda's hit list after jokingly urging others to draw cartoons of muhammad. what is u.s. law enforcement doing to protect her, if anything? that's next.

. welcome to "the lead." in other national news it was a moving sight to witness in france as 3 million people across the country regardless of race or class or creed marched to show they will not be silenced by threats of

terrorism. it's still unclear whether something so powerful might inspire another cartoons to come out of the shadows. more molly norris a cartoonist on advice of the fbi disappeared in 2010 after she started a facebook page to draw muhammad. it was an answer to cartoons to the prophet. her cartoons led to a court order in pakistan blocking part of facebook. she ended up having a fat wa, a religious edict by anwar al awlaki awlaki. joining us is larry kelly who runs the free molly norris foundation. thank you for joining us. first of all, how is she doing? >> well thanks very much jake for having me on. i really don't know.

i came across her story shortly after i finished my book. i wrote a book which is my response jake to 9/11. it was a ten-year odyssey, and i, in my research found out about her. by the way, my book is "lessons from fallen civilizations: can a bankrupt america survive the current islamic threat". >> so how did you get involved with molly's situation? you read about her. >> yes. i just in my research writing the book came across it and i think it was like a lot of americans was shocked that -- to think that she, the first american journalist forced into hiding by radical islam, could happen in the united states. >> what do you think molly was trying to accomplish with the everyone draw muhammad day? was she trying to offend people or taking a stand for the right to offend people which we have in this country?

>> that but she actually said and the research that i've done that she was encouraging people to expand the pool of targets, jake. that's something i really want to stress. that's why i try to keep her story alive. what she means by that is let's everybody become a target. let's not let them pick us off singly. >> the fbi took the threat seriously enough to urge her into hiding. awlaki is debtad but you don't think u.s. law enforcement has done enough to protect her. why not? >> no, i don't. i contacted the fbi, and i told them that i was raising money through my book sales, a portion of each of my books, into the molly norris fund. i was just attempting to find a way to talk to a case officer that maybe there would be a

conduit so we could get the money to her. they would not help me. moreover, when they went to her they said, look, you're getting so many death threats you need to go ghost, their term. what that meant was she had to leave her family and her friends, her livelihood and disappear because the fbi either wouldn't or couldn't protect her. and i think that one of the things we learn from this snowden event is that the government has the tools in my opinion, jake, to -- if i were to receive a death threat and i send that e-mail over to the fbi office, i think that the government should and probably does have the tools to put that fbi office on offense. that's another thing that i think that we just failed to do in her case. i think it needs to be corrected. >> larry kelley from the free

molly norris foundation, thank you so much. coming up what were pilots doing in the moments before airasia 8501 crashed? investigators closer to finding that out after the cockpit voice recorder was found. that's next. plus it's just one measly second but it could mean armageddon for the internet. why companies are frantically looking for ways to avert disaster. what kind of disaster? coming up. . i knew that. you see, this is my amerivest managed... balances. no. portfolio. and if doesn't perform well for two consecutive gold. quarters. quarters...yup. then amerivest gives me back their advisory... stocks. fees. fees. fees for those quarters. yeah. so, i'm confident i'm in good hands. for all the confidence you need. td ameritrade. you got this.
