al-megrahi's guilt >> the most definitive look at this shocking crime >> the major difficulty for the prosecution that there was no evidence >> al jazeera america presents lockerbie part one: the pan am bomber live, with a look ata today's top stories. new information that u.s. air strikes have killed several senior military leaders. developing a new relationship, what the deal with cuba means moving forward, and will it will be lifted? and federal investigators detective the hacking at sony to north korea. no uh the u.s. deciding how to respond.

thement gone said today that several leaders were killed during strikes in iraq. joining us live now from the white house, what do we know about this? >> the chairman of the voice chief of staff. of course, tony, more than 1300 of them, the head of isil military operations in iraq, a key deputy to isil supreme leader. and a governor of the contested city in the areas around among those who were killed in strikes principally in the first week, and in late november as well. of course, the coalition now stepping up the air strikes bringing in more partners into iraq to bring the fight to isil, there is a big offensive plan for the spring, as the united states and coalition partners

continue to retrain key elements of the iraqi army, and top pentagon officials military officials p the equipment trying to cut them off, their supply lines in preparation to what is supposed to be a major offensive. do they believe progress is being made. >> they believe progress is being made, still controlling a vast array of territory, although they have suffered some set backs. remember, the administration has stressed time and time again, that this is a long term projection at least a minimum of how long this would take. in the estimation ofluth and commanders. james terry is in charge of forces within iraq, and here is how he

estimated the time line. i think we have made significant progress, and in halting that offensive that i talked about, the ability for them to continue to expand in terms of terrain out there. i think what we must do, especially inside of iraq, is build those capabilities. you are talking at least three years. >> a minimum of three years the ever the military operation, i think that will surprise a lot of people. you couple that with all the criticism that the administration has now endured request the plans to train the vetted opposition within the army. the first installment won't be fielded for at least a year, meanwhile, the army appears to be in disarray okay, mike, thank you, meanwhile, kurdish forces in iraq, say they have made significant progress to recapture areas from isil

fighters. one such area, is the sin jar mountain and minority community was forced to flee once isil took up a large part of the area. sue reports. we head to the top of the mountains with the man in charge of the volunteer force, this is their fight, and their land. he has brought weapons and ammunition, but it is far from enough to hold pack the fighters who launch attacks daily in an effort to control the range. to get to his own village, now controlled by isil. homes that they are determined to take back. we feel we need to take revenge. this is just two-kilometers from the isil front line, and home to one of the most sacred 10s.

an hour before we arrived question fought well against them, and they didn't get into the village, it was on target. >> his commander says he has left the mountain to meet the president, who u.p.s. proked more weapons and revealed the push on the mountains was eminent. he gave his word that we would get them as soon as possible, i am sure if we got these we would drive them out of the whole area. >> but not today. we are soon under attack with five falling to within 30 meters. the push cannot come soon enough. we are advised to leave, but with them surrounding on three sides we have no

choice but to climb up the mountain, the five-kilometer uphill hike. we are walking up the mountain, because -- they have too much. the plumes of smoke already, they appear to be aiming at the charge. ville rages held to take before they can help them. sue al jazeera, on the mountains. >> the white house said today it is weighing options to respond to the threats that led sony to pull the film "the interview." jamie mcintyre joins us live, jimmy, how is the white house responding to this. >> well, the white house is still refusing to say exactly who it believes was behind the attacks.

despite numerous reports saying that north korea is the prime suspect. but it was clear from the white house briefing today that the white house is taking this very seriously there has been a series of meetings throughout the day. this is the subject of daily meetings. >> this is being treated as a national security matter, there is evidence that we have seen destructive activity with malicious intent, that was initiated by a sophisticated actor. the u.s. is considering a number of possible responses, but he didn't outline them, he did say that one consideration would be that from would be a proportional response, which would seem to rule out any sort of military action, and homeland security advisor jay johnson also said today that he felt that this was a very serious attack, because it wasn't

just against the company and it's people, but also against the freedom of americans to go to the movies and creative process to make movies as well. so they signaled today that they are taking this very seriously. >> help me clear this up, has a clear link been established by this government from the hack to north korea. >> well, if there has been a clear link, they haven't acknowledged it yet. is that's where all the evidence is pointing. and frankly, one of the problems if it turns out is to be north korea, there's a limited amount of options. it is already a heavily sanctioned country. some are calling for additional banking restrictions that would wall up the one and of course the u.s. could also engang in some cyber warfare of it's own. at this point we aren't sure what the response will be a lot of reaction

to this hacking and the response online. shock is a lot of what we are seeing. writing wow, everyone caved, the hackers won. and ben stiller writing hard to believe this is the response to a threat to freedom of expression here in america. comedian writing all joking aside, we just gave a comment fighter foothold to censorship. some theaters said they would show teen america for free. that was released in 2004, the interview is about his son, paramount pictures just a few hours ago, canceled the showing of team america. >> thank you, so a hot of fall out today.

morgan radford joins us live in miami. morgan, good to see you, you have been talking to people there. is there a generational difference of opinion on this decision. >> that's a great question, we are standing right now in front of the cafe, and we are hearing a lot of generational discrepancy, towards this news relationship. i have now been betrayed twice, first when i was living in cuba, and then when i fled here. meanwhile, the younger generation say look, not only was now the right time, this should have happened a lot sooner. hot me introduce you to one of those.

that can help the cuban people. if we react responsibly. >> tony, her parents said they never wanted to go back to cuba, but regina said i think it is time that we go, we see how things are, and i want to experience it for myself, soily be sure to bring you that story here tonight morgan, have the people you have been speaking to, spoken to their relatives back in cuba yet. >> they have. it's been an interesting reaction. here, a lot of people are anti-obama. in cuba, it is a very different scenario. are excited about what this means for them. internet access, fluidity to move around, it means cell phones it is a lot of practical things.

morgan radford for us in the little rav vanna community of miami, morgan, good to see you, thank you. boko haram is in the maz kidnapping and murder in nigeria third five people were killed and some 185 kidnapped. now most of the people abducted were young women, children, and members of a group fighting boko haram, it is not far from the town where box co ha ram kidnapped more than 200 school girls. dozens of children recovering from wounds suffered during that tall ban attack. many of those children witnessed their friends being murdered in front of their eyes. some of them and their families. with suppressed tears she is trying to combat her

worst fear. mom, i am okay, even though he was bleeding i am proud of my son, he is such a brave boy. >> and was in the school with dozens when the attack began. he was bleeding. but his father tells me and to call the family by phone. a 12th grader, who was shot in the groin and had his left ear chopped. eight grader was shot in the back, and mohamed in 9th grade has a gunshot wound to the arm. he still has fresh memories of the attackers. >> they look just like animals, they were animals. long hair, long beard.

[unfortunately, i can't see any future of our children in pakistan.

that's next in today's power politics. lap

lap. >> the s&p 500 waltz up 48-points the nasdaq gained 104 points. federal prosecutors are now suing new york city over widespread probables at likers island jail. the justice department found a culture of violence against the young inmates. randall pinkston joins us live. >> tony, yesterday, new york mayor made a visit to likers island to announce the end of solitary confinement for 16 and 17-year-old inmates.

eric holder says the pace is just too slow, so the department of justice is intervening in the existing lawsuit. to speed up new york cities response to what the federal government calls a deep seeded culture of violence. and a clear violation of constitutional rights. as a detention facility, one of the largest in the nation. with separate facilities for adults and adolescents. including interviews with inmates and staff, the department of justice described likers as a dangerous place for addless sents where staff, uses force with alarming frequency, force often disproportional to the risk posed by the inmate, results in broken jaws, noses, lacerations.

force is used to punish young inmates. and policy with beetings occurring outside the view. facing adolescent at constant risk of physical harm. and 1-12 month period 20/20/12 and 2013. the feds were enforced consent decree, to make sure that reforms do take place. >> this focusing on young people, what about conditions for the adult population? >> well, that munoz class deals with the entire adults and adolescent. the federal authorities are feeling that there's more attention that needs to be placed to if you think yoest inmates. to say today, that the focus of mistreatment on

adolescents does not exonerate treatment of adults picture the department of corrections. in today's power politics they have all weighed in now on the normalization of relations. david schuster joins us. >> in her recent book the former secretary of state said she recommended to president obama that he change the u.s. relationship with cuba and lift the embargo, her statement had i proposed first vibe to it. despite new intentions only strengthened the regime grip on power as i have said, the best way to bring change is to expose it's people to the values information and material confidents of the outside word issue as written statement, but he condemned the action the beneficiaries will be the

heinous brother whose have oppressed the people for decades. at a festival in miami, he referred to allen gross, who they just released after five years in jail. the fact he is put in prison is a validation of what the policy has been it is a repressive regime. >> bush's as a matter of fact tone was a stark contrast with the more hyperbolic objections from florida republican senator this president is the single worst negotiator who has been in the white house in my lifetime. who has given the cuban government everything it asked for, and received no assurances of any advances in return. he criticized the pope, for helping to broker the u.s. cuba deal.

>> i would also ask the holiness to take up the freedom and democracy, which is critical for a free people. >> who is in cuba yesterday when the news broke, and the reaction poured in, he told reporters raul castro has more respect for the president of the united states than marko rube bow has shown. in washington republican is just weeks away from taking over as senate majority leader. including the new senate sergeant in arms the top law enforcement positions for the chamber, for those jobs mcconnell has now tapped and james moore hard, larkin worked in the social security office in the world trade center, and survived the attacks. more rad survived the plane crash that kills former senators. it's in preparation for

the train wreck that could be the u.s. senate republican speaker john boehner has just released a holiday poem. time to take on the tough issues like taxing and spends the friday hock may finally be ending. reform is needed from home in ohio to here on capitol hill, but not by executive order but instead by a bill. >> that's right, the least productive history in history, is ending with his effort at poetry. there you have it. 2014, tony. >> your year in review is not to be missed. all right, david appreciate it. india has taken a big step towards his goal of putting an astronaut on the moon.

india's latest launch has two important functions. and scientists were really looking to determine is with they could take this into space and bring it home. safely, this is part of the overall aim to send their own astronauts into space. and they now say that they will be aiming to do that within the next eight years. the other function of this mission, was to show that india has the capability to send very heavy communication satellites into space, this rocket was the heaviest that they have ever launched it weighed just over 630 tons. and what this actually allowed india to do is tell foreign countries that they can bring their very heavy communication satellites to india and have them launch it. mr. of them for foreign

countries and this has become a very lucrative business. ten now they are able to expand the service, and attract more business, through this space program. new investigation showing that humans are living longer, so says a comprehensive study of global health now reach age 71 on average, that is six years longer than just two years ago. stoats linked to condition like cancer and diabeteses jumped about 40%. why some say it is a terrible trade off that will have widespread effects for the united states. by the most isolated in the world, we will follow the trail to see how it was done.

a potential victory. the pentagon announced today that several leaders have been killed in air strikes since mid november. the partners have launched more than 1,000 strikes aimed at halting the offensive. what is your analysis of this strike that we are talking about today, and what it means in terms of isil command structure. short and long term. it turns out that folks have been doing a lot of research on this question, of leadership structure. in terrorists groups what sort of organizations are effected. it turns out that isil is

of the type, it is organized but not very deeply embedded locally. they might have impact over time, not immediately or today, put over time. if they can't rewhennish the leadership, then they may face problems. today was the day that a top u.s. military official announced that this is will go on for at least another three years. and so as i say it is a tool, but it isn't something that will generate instant results. let's do a reset here, are coalition partners, coalition partners reck there was a lot of fanfare. are those partners still fighting actively? are they enganged in this commission?

that big set of air strikes in which several participated. there are reports that now that's all sort of fallen away and it is really an american air campaign. maybe that's because our planes are better, and we can carry out. at the end of the day, we are the ones executing the air war. >> and you are also pointing me to signs of possible mission creep in the effort in iraq. >> well, a couple of things. another 1,000 -- and that's going to be bring us up to the 3,000 figure. so we started at 300, now we are at 3,000, we are talking about three more years. a lot of 3's here, also a report that the pentagon later denied but it is sort of fuzzy, that this marks the same day, or tuesday that u.s. forces directly enganged the

enemy in a fire fight. this was reported out of iraq. acting to defend themselves in a base, but in any case, if you are shooting at each other, you are shooting at each other. the time line is increasing and naturally, at some point, if you are on the ground next to the folks you are going to end up shooting too he is a research associate at the security studies program, good to talk to you. thank you, sir. latin american leaders are hailing the shift in relationship between the united states and cuba. cuba could gain economically and politically, and the u.s. may begin to feel less isolated in lat ten america. al jazeera latin america etrier lucy, great to see you. just what will this mean

for the u.s. relationship with latin america? >> hello, tony. it could mean a great deal. now, as you may recall when latin america and the caribbean was considered the obedient backyard. but clearly that has sailed. and leaders that were meeting with president obama there, basically read him the riot act. with the u.s. policy towards cuba, particularly the u.s. embargo which they consider bullying. >> the photo operational that sums it up. welcome with open arms to a new regional organization. to every country in latin america and the caribbean except the united states and canada.

it is the united states, that has become isolated from the it's neighbors. >> against cuba. a thorn that has diminished the leadership in the americas. that's why renewing ties is more than just a gesture to cuba. >> south american leaders gather here in argentina applauded the announcement and with some described as the audacious move by president obama and while it will not iron out all the differences between washington and it's southern neighbors it could put it signal a new beginning i want to recognize president obama for his brave gesture, one that is necessary. he has taken what may be the most important step of his presidency. >> signals the beginning of the end of a cold car

that has marked their lives for generation. and while the embargo won't be lifted just yet, the easing will have a major impact on a country struggling to survive. it will be an economic shock street. it will mean more trade, more tourism, and more investments from the united states, which will help the people of cuba who suffered an embargo for more than 52 years. speaking of that upcoming meeting i bet you will see a lot of people slapping president's back, but also he will be under even renewed pressure to try to see that the u.s. economic

embargo is lifted. it's u. to the u.s. congress good to see you, florida senator, has been leading the criticism of president obama's move to improve relations he spoke out again today in florida. david joins us live now. on more on what rubio had to say, david? >> hi, tony, right here sort of the hod bed of opposition, and this is the backbone of rubio supporters. he spoke stood and talked about his dissatisfaction with the president. with how this has come to pass. he is sort is of the republican face of the opposition, and let's listen to what he had to say.

more banking more commerce, and the words of raul castro, cuba has agreed to nothing. >> the implications of this decision will extend far beyond just cuba. it has a chilling effect on democracy, and freedom in the region. and on those that are brayly fighting for it. >> . >> now, to pull out a little bit of context on this. when obama was first elected president, there was a lot of these movements in place. direct male, telecommunications all of these things were on the table, allen gross was arrested and all of that came to a stop so there is a zones, at least among those in cuba, and those in favor of normalizing these is this is a beginning of a new era. it is the same criticism, including from the marko

rubio the ted cruz, become as bigger part of the game, but rubio has been out on this, let's listen to what he had to say. i can probably sum up that a little bit. he called it disgraceful, and a success to tyranny. where i am right now, this is sort of that hot bed of what we have seen over the course of the years. but it is also sort of changed. and so that reign revolution so to speak. the older general rigs, those that remember 1959 and have property that lost, those are fewer and fewer. people here are born in miami, many have become americans so that hot bed of political activity, that's made such a red herring issue.

it may be lessening and that may be while we have seen the changing. it needs to be stated that you spent a number of years on the island. on cuba. when we were both working for a different broadcast home. and you have spend there on cuba, and here is my question. in reaction to what the president has announced here, are we going to see kind of a generational device here. in terms of how younger people view the president's decision, and the older generation that you just alluded to how they will view this decision? you will see it on both sides of the line. here in the united

states, you have a lot of people who like to go to cuba the relics of my heritage there, but i am from miami, i like the marlins. this is my country. you go to cuba, and you talk to cubans and there is -- you do have those hot pockets of that statute -- this evil empire to the north that's still very much exists but by and large, cubans are very much connected to their neighbors i have yet to meet a cuban that doesn't have an uncle in florida, in new jersey, so this is an island of 11 million people that have very close relations to the united states, the what we see now is the beginning of a new era. today the white house said the sony hack is a serious national security matter. it is considering how to respond right now. has canceled the release of the interview.

and jake, what has led investigators to point fingers at north korea on this one? >> it is really not clear exactly what evidence has led them to that. one of the computers involved in the hack, researchers have found had it's setting such that it was being used in the korean language. that's one piece of evidence, the other is that the attacks may have come through a beliefian server. again, this is very circumstantial. others have access to other information, but they don't want to reveal it. intruding into the cyber infrastructure, and sort of they just don't want to reveal it. but based on what we know

of the history. until what they kind of typically do? >> it fills in some ways and it doesn't in others. the first thing here is what we understand about the hacker sub culture. there isn't one. the intersenate is not publicly available there is no home grown hacker culture. there are a purely military aspect to hacking. the security research group issue as big report back in august. the cyber warfare capabilities and they identified an elite cyber military university between 3,005,000 hackers. specifically assigned to hack. they go for very straight forward wiping out of data. they tend to do it on the anniversaries of military actions or political negotiations that have fallen through. and the thing is they

don't have any kind of sense of humor. they did hughes all access, that was then disseminated on the internet, and north korea has not been known to do that in the past, and as you know, the regime is not exactly known for spreading information wildly, nor for it's sense of humor. in what we know we have done in the past, i have to say the evidence is pretty them. >> all right. ray swarez and inside story will pick up more of a discussion on this very issue at the top of the hour. 1200 journalists questioned putin for three hours. to the nation's struggling economy. rory reports now from moscow. they call this the

president's big bless conference, and they are not wrong. at least 1,000 journalists a question and answer session that goes on for hours. this year it happened to come in the week the ruble fell through the floor. as you may know, the situation has changed under the influence of foreign economic factors. i believe the government and the central bank are taking appropriate measures in this situation, we can question the timeliness of the measures taken by the government, and the central bank but generally they are acting actively. >> regarding geopolitics, putin asked why russia was considered aggressive when it is the u.s. that has missiles and military bases spread across the globe. russia, putin argued independent and fierce. >> maybe you should stop chasing pigs around the

forrest. maybe then he will be left alone, but no he won't be. as soon as he is chained they will tear out his teeth and claws. the reaction ranged from admiration to dispair. >> our country is breeched and huge, i don't understand why everything is going this way, i personally sympathize with putin, but i don't believe that he will solve this problem. i don't know why it is always like this in russia. department say anything global, of course all the real things are quietly behind closed doors not on a press conference. i think he understands how normal people live,s it is visible he can sense the situation. >> a reiteration of points is made in other speeches. he will bounce back stronger, russia is not the aggressor in ukraine,

and the united states is and always has been trying to keep russia down if anyone looks for signs that he is a worried leader, there were none. unless you consider the length of this press conference such a sign just three hours rather than the usual 5. nina is with us, she is an international affairs professor. a hot of things you said to us on tuesday, sure planned out today, and he walked in there today, right, and he was kind of pumped up, and full of himself. a lot of -- what did you think of it. >> note the best he has ever done. >> why do you say good. >> from performance. >> oh, he was confident. >> well, he can be much more confident than that. >> oh really. >> so it is short for him because it was only three

hours usually he goes over four, so he had little detail to add to whatever the west fault and going to overcome, and we will get stronger than ever. so three hours is short, he also performed rather well because he was confident enough. >> he actually had the state of the nation arrest, a few weeks before and that was a miserable performance. he needs to talk to the world in a very confident mode he is suggesting that the sanctions in place, and that you are not in response to crimea. the annexation, but an attempt to box in an emerging russia. first of all, does he believe that, and even if he doesn't, would that be

an appealing message to hear? i don't know that he believes it 100%, but there has been arguments that the west is really there to help russia so he believed -- or he convinced himself, and this message is the only thing he can offer, because he offers no solutions so somebody needs to take the blame. and the blame is the united states, and it's puppet western europe. >> all right, let's talk about the news today, the e.u., iunderstand noing today that it is banning investment and targeting the oil sector. halting help, and gas exploration, and outlawing european cruise ships from stopping at crimea porteds now is that significant. you suggested on tuesday, this may not be the time for new sanctions.

>> i still think it is not the time, but i think it is very significant, because russia does rely on western europe, in investment, also it is i think very significant for the russians that are not going to stop there any more i think that is incredibly significant, so putin needs to push his message even further and have more enemies even more. otherwise they will start looking at their own position and be very upset. >> how much trouble is the russian economy in right now? are we looking at shades of 1998. >> i think we are looking at shades of 1998, we are almost embracing it. the difference between now of course and 1998, is that russia was very upset about what happened.

and also -- >> they were defaults and president nelson has enough of a reasonable team to have pushed through invasion, try to hold corruption. they go ba to soviet times he wants to plan the economy, and i think that is a mistake. >> she is an international affairs professor, nina, happy holidays great to see you again. >> thank you. >> many black families call tut race talk, discussing how to interact with police. so situations like the eric garner and the michael brown case don't happen. a look after those conversations next.

you know recent events in therric garner case have reenergized -- it's the race talk. and it's real. america tonight, is here explain to us what this consistents of. >> for our program, we spoke with a family?

brooklyn, about this fact. garner or tall gurley, and you have people -- don't wear a hoody, pull up your pants. >> put your hands on the steering wheel whenever you are pulled over and -- >> yes, do what you are told, don't make a move so -- we kind of wanted to get the perspective, what are you thinks and they had quite a bit to say. >> what are some of the misconceptions people see when they see you? >> the mundane thicks is we are good at sports, basketball, or track. we are thieves, and just evil people. every time i get on the train, and i happen to be a little too close to somebody, even though it is crowded always have that person always has to clutch their bag closer, move it to the front, so that i don't steal it. i just think it is ridiculous.

i think -- they probably don't think i have a dad in the picture. they probably think i play basketball, they probably think come from a low income family. they probably think that i am dangerous. and i have to live with that. >> i can try to change it but at this point i have to live with it. >> i feel like very little help is given to us. if we embrace that, i think we are just feeding in so the psychological. to redefine ourselves. >> having the conversation, the talk. with their black males. sooner -- when the black males are younger than in the past.

>> good to have you here, if you would like to see the report from sara in it's entirety, and you want to, about the race talk, make sure to tune into america tonight at 9:00 p.m. eastern time, a controversy law in kenya. leads to chaos, and riot police deploy, inesse has that story after the break. hello, i am ray swarez, a wealth of secrets from inside the movie business, layed bear on the special net after a hacking was just the first problem sony pictures had to deal with, now a $44 million motion picture, might have no audience at all. did north korea just bully hollywood into submission? are live at the top of the hour.
