artists. how does america go to can carry off an operation like this. >> . so, what they have been doing is collecting informs from human sources probably on the ground after the west gate attack and have been collecting an imagery of the area. they have been tracking interceptive communication between leaders of these groups or individuals affiliated with these groups. men through all these intelligence together plan the actual raid and that's what happened today. how long do they general sit on information like this if they know where these people are, do they tend to act pretty quickly? >> in the case of the somalia incident, it seems like they are prabging oplanning this for a w. obviously those are a little bit dramatizeed for entertainment purposes but they have to be sure. they have to not only have the

information in materials of the reports themselves. -p. there was monitoring going on. these are both personal sites. they were not camps or not faces. they war seaside house i believe and also i believe the reports that are coming in and although things have been changing rapidly and in the libya case is also they were apprehended in his home. there are people on the ground or cameras up above watching these for a little while. >> how do we make a decision to actually go in and with boots on the ground and try to apprehend these people and not just use a growing spike. >> that would be a decision left to if president. it's interesting back in 2009 in the same town of somalia, there was operations carried out against an al qaeda leader in this area believed to be involved in attacks also on targets in kenya and also targets in somalia. in that case, there were not

boot tonboottonsbootson the gro. >> that's a big decision especially in somalia where u.s. forces have a troubled history. it is and after all the heat in ben ghazi. things can can go according to planned or not according to plan it seeps like in one place it went according -- they apprehended them. it's not clear what happened. it's not clear if they have confirmed the department of a target that they were trying to go in after. an al qaeda aptive, what do we know about him? we know he's thought to be responsibility for the bombings in africa and the embassies back in the late 90s. what do we know about him since then? >> he is the core members of al qaeda. he is a core member target. they already indicted those. he's been one of the outstanding people.

there have been a $5 tph-ld $5 million-dollar award for him. the somalia one is with the west gate attack. there's been a lot of talk in washington about the government shut down. do you think it has any impact on these operations? >> it's too early to say but it has to have an impact on the over all function. you have hundreds of thousands the at home. you have 12,000 cia people. that's a lot of people sitting at home not doing their jobs. thank you so much for your insight today. you really appreciate it. >> . law makers have debated which workers should be oh recalled from furlough and tonight we all have answer.

nearly all 350,000 civilian employees will head back to work. it comes on a day on day five of the government shut down that shows no end in sight. >> it was all about back pay for furlough workers and getting workers back on the job today here on capitol hill down the road. we heard from the defense secretary who said that he and his lawyers will work out a way in having the law assigned last monday when president obama called our "pay our military" act. they can get 350,000 workers back on the job by monday or tuesday. not here in d.c.but around the country and also around the world. take a look. >> come back to work. that's the order from the secretary of defense to nearly 400,000 civilian employees world wide. on saturday, chuck haguele announced that thanks to a law that will guarantee troops their pay, the pentagon can eliminate

fur lose for employees whose responsibilities contribute to the moral, well being -bgs capabilities and readyness of service members. >> some lies in the base where military families can stretch their dollars. the shut down shut down all to close. it's ruined thousands of family. >> i would say that it's ridiculous that you're taking that with people that are fighting for your country. that's ridiculous. >> even with the pentagon recall, hundreds of thousands of other federal workers are still in limbo have -- only those assigned to mission control on the job. other nasa employees wonder what will happen to them and their families if congress and the white house don't strike a bill on the new budget soon. >> i think they are playing chicken with our lives and we've been through a pay freeze and now this. i've had enough. >> reporter: meanwhile the

president and republicans in congress spent saturday pointing fingers at each other. >> what we can't do is keep engaging in this brinksmanship where a small party ends up forcing them. >> it doesn't make any sent if the president has an ax to grind with the posing party. why he would want to president the american people in the middle of that and force the pain on them. >> reporter: so far there are no closer to ending the shut down. it's a political stalemate that's income henceible to millions of americans who now realize just how much they do count on the federal government for their well being. >> in the house of republican hf representativhouse ofrepresentad on when they will get that back

pay and once this government shut down comes to an end. next, nothing happens on sunday to capitol hill. the house and senate are not sitting. so what broadcast -- is there any glimmer of news on that front from there and it's back here on monday to watch for more science of the shut down ending. the shut down means across the country, if you want to go to arizona. he's the ceo of the arizona khaepl pwechamber of commerce ad industry. >> what are you seeing out there with this shut down? >> we're feeling the pain in several sectors. we have the crown jewel of the national park system in the grand canyon in arizona. so we're feeling the pain on that. we are also the top defense states in the country. so, wear als we're also feelingn there. we need this shut down to end sooner rather than later. how has this impacted tourism there. i know it's huge as we have

mentioned the grand canyon and is a huge money maker for state. does this effect the over all economy and how so? >> absolutely. tourism in arizona supports about 200,000 jobs. it's one of the largest segments of our economy. the grand canyon alone is worth a half million dollars of economic activity. so there's at least 6,000 or 7,000 workers now in the state of arizona that are furloughed because of this shut down. so there's real pain to a lot of families in arizona. how much is t*z par tourism parf arizona's economy. >> it's one of the state's largest industry. we're feeling it in a lot of different sectors it' tough for small businesses to get loans it' tough for veterans to get all the benefits that they're entitled to.

it's tough to process immigration. all 50 states figured out -- yet this washington, d.c. they can't figure it out it's unacceptible. >> have you personally reached out to some of oh your congressional representative? es. >> yes. we've been reaching out to our congressional representatives. we can play this junior high school game who's at fault. the bottom line is po* both pars are going to have to negotiate. this government shut down is hurting arizonaians, it's hurting americans and in two weeks we have a debt ceiling situation that if that is isn't resolved it's going to make this shut down look like small

cross the bottom of the marshes but no sign that it will come in to the alabama or mississippi lines yet. those signs will be low and the rain minimal. >> what are authorities telling people to do there? >> well, the tropical storm watches have been lifted across the four states except for certain areas like in louisiana like you said down in grand aisle in the southern parts where it could be flooding because of the low lying areas. here in biloxi and the state of mississippi and the national guard which will put the ash in yesterday whenever one thought this might turn in to cat 1. they have been relieved of their dutbeauties. duties. the track of this storm which was originally going to wall up this area as a strong tropical storm or even a low hurricane

gate of more attacking kenya is probably the american special forces and insurgents community to take advantage of whatever information they have to see oh it back against al-shabab and also against al qaeda. i guess the ben ghazi attack is fresh in everybody's minds even though it's already a year old. i think it aggress addresses one threats. >> high do you think this happened today? this weekend? >> i don't think this weekend is particularly special. i'm sure those operations happened when all the pieces come together. when they match the forces in the area and so on. i don't suppose they are waiting in october or anything. nonetheless, it is significant that they have forces out there ready to take advantage of any opportunity that does occur.

i think it's very important for n the western resolve and the -- people have to answer for the crimes they committed. despite the time lapse between the crime and the punishment if you like. so, i think it's a very good sign to send to al qaeda and others like that. that they don't fade way. the memories remain fresh and the law enforcement continues. >> it's two separate rays by special forces in different parts of africa. what does that tell you about u.s. war on terror? >> there's still great deal of

commitment. there's no lessening oh of the war. >> often times we hear drones or strikes but these were men on the ground we have seen some capability as well. don't know the detail of the attack in libya and who was involved in that. kenya has named four

suspects from that mall attack. newly released security camera video shows four young men carrying ak-47. there were earlier statements which claim 15 to 18 attackers were involved. some remain at a stand still over the shut down. another crisis is looming. that's the debt ceiling. that's how much they can borrow to continue financing the country's debt. the deadline is october 17th. if law makers do nothing. government will not have enough money to fay bills. pay its bil >> never before has a party threatened to not pay our bills except for 2011. the last time that speaker

boehner and the house of representative sendives thought that it might give them more leverage of negotiates an we can't establish a pattern where one fanc the tion or one branch of government can hold its breath and say unless we get 100% of our way then we're going to let the entire economy collapse. so what i've said to them is this, making sure that the united states government pays its bills is none negotiable. that's what families all around the country do. there's concern of it hurting the economy, the government shut down is already taking a financial toll. the economic consulting form iah double. it's cost tax payers $$1.5 billions. that's an average of $300 million-dollars per day. the government accountability office is unable to confirm

[[voiceover]] every day, events

rapid city, another day of daily snowfall records broken. now, as temperatures start to fall overnight t all this snow can ice over. in places where it's starting to get slushy. you will get icey spots
