iran and six world powers kicks off thursday. >> brand new underwater images appear to show the fuselage of airasia flight 8501. it is sitting on the floor of the java sea. >> it could be the final pees of the puzzle as investigators try to figure out what brought the plane down. these images were just released. >> just released and are absolutely remarkable. good morning. just a short time ago singapore's defense minister posting photos on his facebook page. these are still images taken by singapore's navy using an underwater search and rescue robot and show the fuselage of the missing airasia flight 8501. many victims may still be inside the cabin. this may bring closure to the families and could one of the most important clues about what went wrong. >> in this underwater video, you see divers recovering cockpit voice recorder from airasia

flight 8501. it was lying on the bottom of the sea. this morning the two black boxes are now in jakarta being analyzed. the flight's data recorder took only about 15 minutes to download now investigators will focus on the voice recorder. >> inspect the condition of the unit if it is all ok and then they start the downloading process. >> investigators hope the black boxes will piece together what led to the airbus crashing into the sea. searchers have recovered four dozen bodies so far and belief more will be found in the plane's fuselage. >> i also told the families of crash victims that if the joint operation is stopped it doesn't mean it stops in total. we will continue with the search operation. >> for the family members the wait is agonizing. >> there's no end until we see them no matter what condition they are in. as long as they are found

that's what i want. >> at a school, friends and teachers lit candles to remember one of their own student, he was on his way to singapore for a holiday with his family when the air asia plane went down. his grandmother hopes for any news. >> we will not give up, even though it's been nearly a month we're not giving up hope that they will be recovered. >> crews are now assessing the best way to raise the fuselage. the main concern is the weight of the water logged wreckage, that it could crumb bull on the way to the surface. >> there are still as many as 100 bodies that could be trapped inside the fuselage. >> the hope is that the majority of them are inside. >> another story getting attention in indonesia today the trial of an american couple charged with murder. the couple talked about killing her mother, because she objected

to their relationship. the body of the socialite was found in august, stuffed inside a suitcase. the trial resumes next wednesday. >> at least 11 people, many more injured, 11 dead after a passenger bus was struck by a missile in eastern ukraine traveling along its regular route. ukrainian law enforcement and accept are activities blaming each other. >> hong kong leader trying to win over the masses. just a few hours ago he laid out measures designed to diffuse public anger. he's still facing major opposition. >> the tents may be gone, but the angry protestors returned to government headquarters. they greeted hong kong's chief executive as he arrived to these much anticipated annual policy speech. inside the this, he couldn't escape the protests. legislators from the city party

pursued him into the chamber. chants were greeted by silence. security moved in and they were removed from the floor. the chief executive laid down beijing's rule of law. they want china's plan to be abandoned to appoint candidates, ruling out a democratic vote. he he told the chamber he understood their democratic aspirations but warned them to respect china's authority. >> in accordance with the law or hong kong will deteriorate into anarchy. >> one main complaint by occupy protestors is the widening gap between rich and poor in hong kong. with a quarter of a million people on the waiting list for public housing. he he said his government will introduce public housing and

president's broad band plans? >> the president wants to give people more options. it's not a question of cost, it's basic access and competition. he's going to cedar falls iowa for a reason. that community has been able to get local people there high speed internet, one gig service that's super fast, basically. that's a fairly unique experience for many americans here in this country. to the end that the president wants to make sure people can get basic access to broad band, he's calling for more funding. there was stimulus funding back as part of that economic push back a few years ago helping cedar falls get their broad bond up and running and supported. he's calling for a summit to bring together community leaders and wants to create a council that would problem solve issues getting americans high speed

internet and take public comment to figure out not just cost issues but what regulations are causing more problems than solutions. >> what have been stumbling blocks for cities and towns trying to get high speed internet service? >> a lot of it has to do with regulation. the big companies that are dominating the network have been able to get states onboard, 19 of them, to create laws that stifle competition. lawmakers want to give communities more of an ability to push back and create competition to bring more options to their area. the president's going to push the f.c.c., the federal communications commission to allow local municipalities to create their own utilities so that that's something that would take the f.c.c. stepping back and pushing really against these state laws that big companies have pushed for. one of the cities that the president is going to be talking about and looking at is

chattanooga, tennessee. it's a great example because they have service there that's 40 times faster than what you can even find in a lot of parts of new york city. as the white house itself points out, three out of four americans are living in parts of the country where there's either no competition or no basic access to that very high speed internet. >> sounds like we have entered the cyber age as we approach the state of the union address. libby, thank you very much. >> pope francis this morning is calling for unity in sri lanka. he held a a huge mass as he he canonized a saint. >> more than half a million joined in prayer with pope francis. many camped overnight with extended families for what they described as the biggest day of their lives.

an emergency but now all aboard are believed to be safe and the situation is reportedly under control. of course we'll continue to follow developments out of the i.s.s. >> back here on earth the morning commute can be really bad in parts of the mid atlantic facing an ice storm. >> she's back, nicole mitchell is back. >> the gaining's all here, yes. i did not coin this term, but liking it. the weather service is calling is sleaze, sleet and treating rain. it's start to go pull out but snow in maryland seeing more of that more in north carolina, freezing precipitation which is still on the roads even as this pulls out. temperatures are widespread in the 20's. in greensboro, north carolina, there was a layer from about five to 10,000 feet warmer than

freezing so the moisture falls through to, warms up and then when it refalls to the freezing is where we get the rain and sleet. most of this is a road hazard. it weighs down the trees and snaps branches where you have enough accumulation, this is mostly a road accumulation. this will continue to move out of the picture. by the time we he get more into the day tomorrow, we're going to track rain across the gulf coast where we actually have some pretty dense fog through the southeast, hit and miss today. a lot of the country, a little clipper with light snow, but the benefit of all of this, some warm air is moving in, finally for northern parts of the midwest. i'll have more on that coming up. >> you're saying be careful with he may get sleazy out there. >> it's a little sleazy driving on those roads. >> thank you very much.

charlie hebdo has put its first issue on the stand since last week's deadly attack on its office in tarries. the cover is causing a stir in the muslim community. >> it depicts the prophet mohammed. the newspaper sold out. >> how is this issue being received? >> i have to say that there's been an absolutely phenomenal reception for the issue here in paris. in fact, you can't get hold of a copy of charlie hebdo in the city this morning for love nor money. scuffles broke out at some news stands at people were cueing before down to get a copy. good news for those people who still want to get one and that is that more copies will be delivered thursday and friday and over the weekend. in fact, they're increasing the print run a total of 5 million copies of this issue are now going to be pretend. >> are staffers at charlie hebdo

talk about what it was like working on this issue? it must have been emotional. >> they did talk to us on tuesday, yes dell, it was very emotional. the cartoonist who may be infamous for those cartoons spoke to about 200 journalists who crammed into the paper's temporary offices. he was emotional shaking, he was in tears on some occasions. you had the feeling that this is a man really suffering trauma after what's happened in recent days. he said it was a struggle to draw, it was a struggle to find the right kind of cartoon. but ultimately, he said that he felt that this production, this paper this week is the result of what he said joy and pain. he said that you will find all of the characters from the paper in the pages this week, even those colleagues who were killed a week ago. >> jacki roland live for us in paris, thank you very much.

>> del the new charlie hebdo issue comes as a top al-qaeda leader in the arabian peninsula is claiming responsibility for last week's attack at the publications paris office. the group's leader said it was done in vengeance as charlie hebdo continues to publish cartoons depicting the prophet mohammed. he he said they chose the target laid the plan and financed the operation. sir, thank you for your time this morning. in the new video that emerged should we take him at his word and what does it mean? >> we of course, don't know

yesterday. we are going to have more clarity in the weeks to come. it's part of mount be evidence that are strong links to yemen in the attack. we know that one brother went to yemen, went to training camps there. there are other indications that there are links there. at the same time, we do know for example that the other attacker, coulibaly who went inside the supermarket talked about isis. different jihadist groups traveling around the world al-qaeda, islamic state we know al-qaeda is in competition with the islamic state but at the grassroots level it's about the ideology. >> is it really about the

ideology? one suspect spent time in prison. should we be having a conversation about religion versus disenfranchisement of muslim youth? >> absolutely. obviously this is bringing up issues that are well known to anybody that looks at france, at different european countries issues of lack of immigration disenfranchisement. all these are factors in understanding the radicalization process. it would be counter productive to look at lack of immigration as the factor that brings radicalization. we've seen attacks in canada in october, two attacks and canada, we all take as sort of a model of positive integration. 30% of individuals from the west travel to syria to join different jihadist groups or

converts. it's not a matter of immigration for them. it's a matter of personal integration, individuals that for one reason or the other background or just personal characteristics that do not fit into society. >> given that, this morning's video release appears to be propaganda for al-qaeda. it urges muslim youth to rise up saying that paris was a turning point in the history of the confrontation. have we seen this kind of call to arms by al-qaeda since the death of say bin bin laden? >> yeah, at the end of the day it's nothing new. we have seen al-qaeda trying to stir up muslim populations to

rise up in the east or west. i think what's new most recently is the pervasiveness of all this kind of propaganda through social media. ten years ago was simply from the top to the bottom, now it's from the bottom-up, you have people on social media facebook twitter instagram spreading this propaganda everywhere. obviously that's the new factor we see here. >> helpful insights for us this morning, thank you for your time. >> a vietnam investigated is now the first death row inmate to be executed this year. he he he died by lethal injection in georgia last night convict of killing a sheriff deputy in 1998. his lawyers tried to get the death sentence commuted, arguing he suffered from post traumatic stress disorder. >> a bartender has been charged with threatening to kill house speaker john boehner.

he suffers from mental illness. he told of plans to poison the speaker. he was a former bartender at a country club boehner went to. he he thought the house speaker was responsible for ebola. >> back to the weather the midwest getting a break from the bitter cold. let's get a check of the forecast. >> january's been a rough month. it is our cold effort monthly but this has been a little extreme. chicago, three this morning at the airport slightly warmer downtown. minneapolis, 18. it hasn't been since the beginning of the month. we've even had a temperature above 20. overnight temperatures below zero. we've had the trough of colder air carving its way out. you can see the warm air the ridge in the western portion of the country shift over the next days. minneapolis, 40 degrees by friday. that will be the first time this

month finally above average temperatures. i wouldn't be surprised if you see a couple tee shirts come out, because after negatives, 40 feels balmy. >> let's say i won't be wearing a tee shirt. nicole, thank you very much. >> airation investigators have confirmed they have found the fuselage of the missing flight 8501. >> it is a significant development, hopefully one that provides clues for closure. >> dramatic video out of china where a little boy was rescued after buried in a pile of gravel. >> when i see something in front of me that's going to see ms. davis, this is what we're going to do for your community then i'll say yes it's getting better. >> a tale of two detroits, city leaders touting exit from bankruptcy but some say their neighborhoods are forgotten. >> one independent pooch the dog that takes a bus to the park

vengeance. the new issue of the french satirical newspaper is quickly selling out. france has detained more than 50 people in connection with investigation of the attacks. >> the faithful gathered by the hundreds of thousands at a huge open air mass in sri lanka celebrate by the pope. he urged forgiveness and reconciliation after the country's 25 year civil war. he declared a saint from sri lanka. >> the fuselage hob located from airasia flight 8501. the defense minister posted these underwater images on his facebook page appearing to show the wreckage. >> an air safety expert and former accident investigators joins us. thanks for being with us this morning. as the flight data recorder was found monday, the cockpit

recorder found yesterday. did they need both black boxes for the process to be underway. >> you do not need both, because both provide separate parameters that are both although individually important but you do not have to have together. that process was already started. >> the fuselage hob located. how significant is this to the investigation? >> anytime you can retrieve wreckage especially one that is such a mystery as this, it is beneficial. it is really going to help us piece together bigger questions as far as the possibility of fire, you know, ruling that out being able to rule out explosive decompression and some of the other really large-scale events that can occur. the fuselage is going to go a long way in helping us understand that.

>> you talked about explosive decompression. if weather is a factor, what do you say to those who say weather has always been a factor inflate, but not to this degree? >> that's not necessarily the case. there's, you know, we've seen accidents, certainly where weather plays a role typically. usually they're landing and takeoff accidents. historically, there have been numerous high altitude weather events. air france 447 is the most recent example as far as an altitude loss, but the problem is we're so early on that it's obviously very easy to speculate. we're going to have to see what the boxes say. we should be getting information i would say shortly at least preliminary insight into what they hear and start looking at wreckage and piece this together. >> aviation experts say it could take years before realtime data is transferred from the plane to

the flight centers. why is it taking so long and is there a way to expedite the process? you can tell somebody where their cell phone is by logging on to a particular website. why is it so hard to locate a plane? >> the problem is the infrastructure or transmitting this such incredibly large volumes of information. i think one of the bigger concerns is some of the discussions i've heard talking about the cockpit voice recorder transmitting that information as well. hugely problematic from a security standpoint and as everyone's aware these recordings are extremely protected legally. certainly here in the united states and many our countries so streaming that, significant security concerns being able to protect that. we don't want that getting out and played in the wrong venues. >> many residents in indonesia

are giving cash to the poor. some people receiving the cash say it's now not enough. >> poor people arriving at the post office for their money. the government has is the up a program that not only handles out cash, but also tries to educate indonesians about improving their savings. 15 million people will receive $20 a month to compensate for a fume price hike caused by a cut in government subsidies. the higher fuel costs have led to higher food prices. >> i can now pay for school fees buy rice and other household items. >> the government introduced to new system where poor families of given telephone sim cards to use as bank accounts. the number is simply their phone number. >> in the last five years

receive any money. >> of course this creates jealousy. we're all the same here. we're all poor. i hope the government can do a new population census and use more information directly from the neighborhoods. >> the government admits the system needs work and cash transfer will stop after eight months. after that, the government said that the money saved by fuel subsidies will be reinvested in infrastructure and job creation, the sort of things really needed to help money indonesians out of positivity once and for all. >> we are talking about a lot of people, more than 40 million indonesians live in poverty most on the island of java, indonesia's most populace area. >> a texas soldier who died after coming back from fighting ebola tested negative for the virus. more tests are being conducted to find out just why he died.

he had this anarchy philosophy. he saw this as the beginning of this he called a new epic in the history of mankind. >> the silk road allowed buyers and sellers to deal in illegal waters illegal drugs. bit coin was used to protect the anonymity of users. his arrest raised suspicions that the u.s. government used illegal surveillance to track him. the trial could set a precedent for how on line crimes are prosecuted. >> if this trial is successful and the government has shown they can link an individual to operating a website on the network, it's going to have implications for criminals and criminal gangs. >> albrecht supporters say the case has supporters not just for criminals, but political activists and journalists who use tour, not to mention anyone

who cares about the fourth amend which prohibits unusual search and seizure. >> i feel like the bill of rights is on trial as much as ross is. it's very concerning. that fuels my energy and i am fight forego my son, of course, but it is bigger than ross. >> such lofty issues are not expected to be a big part of his defense, however as he faces conspiracy charges for drug dealing, computer hacking and money laundering. >> during the trial's opening arguments, government prosecutors reasserted their claim that ross is the dread pirate roberts. his lawyers conceded that he did build the silk road but argued that he had handed over control of the site. they said he was lured back in once the government investigation was underway to take the foul for a criminal conspiracy he had little involvement with. al jazeera, new york. >> he pleaded not guilty to

>> this publication is normally 60,000 now 3 million printed and now that up to 5 million as demand sky rockets for the new issue. that's no surprise, when you see the long line in paris as people waited for kiosks to open this morning, some shops sold out within minutes because residents called ahead and reserved their copy of what was once a not so popular newspaper. >> it was important for me to buy it. i want to get to know charlie hebdo. because of the situation i think virtually all french will want to buy the magazine. >> the latest cartoon depicts a weeping prophet mohammed holding a sign that says we are charlie the slogan for freedom of speech. the staff stuck by its decision to depict the profit again. here's what the cover cartoonist had to say. >> it was not the front page the world wanted us to make, but it was the one that we wanted to

make. it was not the front page the terrorists wanted us to make, because there are no terrorists in it. there was just a man crying, a guy crying, it's muhammed. i'm sorry we draw him again but the muhammed we drew is a guy crying positive all. >> charlie hebdo says the proceeds from what is called the survivors issue will go to the victims' families. if you want a copy in the u.s., friday will hit news stands in new york and san francisco. if you go on ebay, copies are popping up with prices up to $600. >> today's new issue of charlie hebdo comes exactly one week after two gunmen raids its office in paris killing 12. a top al-qaeda leader say it was vengeance for the repeated cartoons depicting the prophet mohammed. we have the latest from yemen. >> the video message was

john the fuselage could be the key to discovering what happened to this plane. >> this is what they've been looking for it really is, search teams looking for more than two weeks now. the singapore defense minister saying a navy ship located the fuselage of the crashed plane. these are still images which are posted on the defense minister's facebook page right now. they were taken by singapore's navy using an underwater search and rescue robot. you can clearly see what appears to be the body of the missing air asia jet. on the left of your screen is the top of the fuselage with the advertising, in the middle that's under the wing. the best picture is on the right, where you can clearly see the cabin and one of the wings on the right of the picture. now, as for the black boxes this morning in jakarta investigators are analyzing them looking at both the flight data recorder and the cockpit voice recorder. investigators are hoping that these boxes will give them the information they need to figure out what went wrong.

stifling competition and wants to see a change. to that end, the president will be in iowa today until the unveiling plans next week. >> we're in the oval office and have been doing some work on state of the union. >> in that speech next week, president obama will highlight the power of the internet to a nation hungry for more of its access and speed. >> this is internet download speeds by city. >> pivotal to initiatives he wants enacted in his second term greater and more affordable broad band across the nation like the community run utility in cedar falls iowa. >> the reason they compete with other world cities is because citizens got together and made the investment to bring competition in and make sure that internet speeds were just as fast there as anywhere else. >> critical to his plan will be the federal communications commission. the penalty plans to ask the

f.c.c. to allow municipalities to expand local knelt works despite state laws that prevent them. one example chattanooga tennessee. >> it's 100 times faster than the national average. >> the fiber optic internet connection transfers data at one gigabyte per second, 40 times faster than new york and is on par with hong kong, which has the fastest in the world. it started more than four years ago, when the city owned utility company was looking to upgrade its power distribution center. with over $330 million in bonds and federal stimulus grants, engineers created a city wide fiber optic network. now for $70 a month customers no matter where they live have access to super fast internet. >> if you look at the united states versus the rest of the world when it comes to internet activity we're well behind. >> we need faster broad bond. >> the president will meet

opposition not only from large telecommunication companies but even some at the very agency he hopes will enact his plan, f.c.c. staffer and republican matthew barry tweeting: >> the f.c.c. is considering requests right now from chattanooga who want to push back against state laws that want to revent them from growing. watch for any change on the f.c.c. front. it is getting a big push, a very public one this week from the commander-in-chief himself. >> that may be the first time we've ever seen a president do a presentation from the white house with a tablet. what else is the white house pushing for? >> the president would also like to see more funding in terms of grants to be able to help communities expand their own

networks. now, this was part of the stimulus package years ago and that helped communities like cedar falls iowa, get their broad band up and running. the president wants an extension of those funds. he also is calling for a summit this summer, getting together community leaders and he would like to see essentially a task force created to problem solve what are some of the hurdles and take public comment on just what is holding up some of this process. that's it in a nutshell. a lot of this, the president can do on his own but it may take congress support to get more dollars. >> libby causey live in washington d.c., thank you very much. >> secretary of state john kerry is meeting in geneva this morning with iran's foreign minister working to speed up the talks over iran's nuclear program. a new round of talks between iran and six world powers kicks off thursday. >> the u.n. hosting talks between rival libyan factions today, libya has been pleading

for international help ending the fighting there to bring an end of turmoil since muammar gaddafi's regime was toppled. >> at least 11 were killed in ukraine thursday after a long-range missile hit a passenger bus. >> they are blaming each other for the talk, coming at peace talks stall. >> the attack happened aren't 2:15 in the afternoon a civilian bus was nearing the checkpoint south of donetsk. the blood stained bodies of men and women passengers were killed instantly where they sat. the intended targets could have been the checkpoint just a few

meters away. separatists initially admitted the attack, then later denied it was them. in a parliament in kiev, the deputies were briefed by a general from the defense ministry. the assembly then observed a minute's silence in attribute to the victims. ukraine's president went on television to condemn the attack and appeal for international support. >> a civilized world should stand together in its fight against terrorism. the president reassured me that on thursday, the e.u. parliament will call on the european union to include the so-called donetsk people's republic on its list of terrorist organizations. >> there has been away significant escalation in the fighting in eastern ukraine in the last few days. some commentators noted it followed the arrival of another convoy labeled at humanitarian

supplies. throughout much of the day separatist controlled artillery pounded troops. one report said separatist leaders issued and ultimatum to the soldiers to retreat for be destroyed. >> all of which makes a nonsense of the ceasefire which is supposedly still enforce between the two sides. the leaders of ukraine russia, germany and france have called off peace talks due to take place later this week. the respective foreign ministers of those countries met in berlin monday and agreed that given the current situation in the conflict zone, there was no hope of meaningful progress. >> fighting between the ukrainian government and pro-russian rebels ever killed 4700 people since april.

>> prosecutors indicted michael hoyt after he told police of his plan to poison john boehner. he was a former bartender and has a history of mental illness. >> investigators trying to determine what led to the death of a soldier in texas who came back from fighting ebola. he tested negative for the virus. he was 24 years old stationed in liberia until last week. he didn't have contact with patients while there. >> defense attorneys delivered opening statements on tuesday in the trial of the san francisco man who launched the silk road website, calling it an experiment. it became a black market bazaar for international drug sales. he pleaded not guilty and his lawyers deny all charges. >> the former mayor in mexico is now charged with the kidnapping of 43 missing students. the charges filed appear to be the first that are directly related to the disappearance of those students. officials believe that he and his wife played a role in the

kidnappings. they were arrested in mexico city in november. >> back in this country icy weather is creating dangerous conditions for parts of the mid atlantic as well as the south. >> nicole mitchell joins us now with a new phrase. >> i can't take credit for this, but the national weather service when putting out different advisories will put out a discussion they're calling this sleaze a combination of sleet and freezing rain. it does feel kind of sleazy having to drive on that. still ice patches in its wake as it moves out. you're still because it's drizzle, a fine mist, doesn't always pick up well on radar there's a little more precipitation than you see richmond virginia still getting freezing mist right now. north carolina was a layer from five to 10,000 feet of warmer air, above freezing and toward the surface these 20s below

freezing so it has a chance to, you know, wet turn into rain and then as it falls through the colder layer that's what it freezes. the one good side of all of this slick roads this morning this is very fine. you really need the heavier precipitation to bring down trees and power lines and things which that nature, so it's not that type of ice storm but the roads are a little missy. >> nicole, thank you very much. >> massive crowds gathering in sri lanka as the pope holds mass there. >> an egyptian court overturning the conviction of former president hosni mubarak. what the decision could mean for mubarak. >> a water main creating more problems than flooding. that video and others cap spurred by citizen journalists around the world. the world.

morning in colombo tens if not hundreds of thousands have come to celebrate mass, to see pope francis. they've been singing hymns. after the pope called for reconciliation yesterday following the end the recent end of almost three decades of civil war it's important to note that it's not just catholics here today. there are people in this audience who are buddhists and muslims that have all come out to see the pope. i've spoken to a number of people here, from all over sri lanka. some of them have been saying that for them today it's one of the most important days, literally of their lives. >> the pope's visit is part of a six day asia tour, the next stop the philippines home to the largest population in asia. >> in egypt a lot of people waiting to see if former

president mubarak is set free. a court overturned his fraud condition and order that he be retried. that decision comes days before the fourth anniversary of the start of the 2011 anti mubarak uprising. a fellow at the washington institute that specializes in the egyptian politics and the muslim brotherhood is back with us. what do you make of the court's decision to overturn the conviction and order a retrial? >> this has been the story for the last four years. we're almost four years to the day of the start of the 2011 uprising in egypt and every conviction has been overturned against mubarak and still they, you know, still have not been able to convict him of anything. i think that just shows that bottom line is it's hard to convict somebody of having been a dictator in their own dictatorship. >> you were in egypt in 2011,

anti mubarak revolts led to his departure. what does the jump rising achieve, if anything? >> in truth when you look now four years later it didn't achieve much. we should be clear that the various participants in that uprising all sought to achief very very different things, and in many cases, those things were not particularly democratic, either. remember that the muslim brotherhood was a key participant in that upraising especially from about the fourth day onward, one power tried to create a, you know, sort of a theocrasy in egypt wanted to do that. leftists were left with what they called revolutionary justice in which the kinds of

trials that mubarak is being put to right now would have been sort of much more prejudiced. i think the lesson of the 2011 jump rising is that when people can only agree on one thing which is that the dictator must go and can't agree on a way forward, it's very, very hard for that jump rising to succeed. >> why are we seeing these changes in egypt a moderation of sorts. is there because there are internal changes or external pressure applied to egypt? >> i think that egypt's story for the last four years in particular is really a story of its own internal politics. this is a far more polarized country than i think many people appreciated when mubarak fell in 2011. when mubarak fell, there was this sort of idea that the country had unified behind something and to some extent

that was true, because mubarak was by that point an unpopular dictator who ruled for 30 years but precisely because there was no unity moving forward and the country became even more polarized, the country is still i think, you know, pretty divided. what you do have today is president al sisi who has the backing of the repressive state institutions so he's able to wield a great deal of power. this is still a polarized country. >> what does this mean now about the muslim brotherhood, al sisi taking power in a military coup, sentencing hundreds to death in mass trials. is it now nothing?

>> no, the muslim brotherhood is both an idea and an organization. the idea is that they want to resist the west by effectively indoctrinating the individual, then having him islamized the family society state and finally establish a global islamic state. that's the brotherhood's idea and that won't die under a crackdown, but that is connected to a specific type of organization that is designed to in docketry nate individuals spread among society win state power and then in its own view, regional power and establish a new caliphate. the brother hood couldn't even control egypt for a year, so certainly is not going to dominate the region. that structure for that

totalitarian goal has crumbled under the crack down. its top leaders have been placed in prison or sent to exile. the idea that they want to resist the west from the grassroots up is something that i think won't die and may at some point be seen in other organizations. >> thank you very much. >> chilerys dents are fighting flames. dozens of homes have been destroyed and there are reports of injuries, but no fatalities yet. houses of firefighters and troops have been deployed. >> we have been waiting to say this warmer temperatures pushing across the country. here's nicole. good morning. >> you missed del doing the little dance on the commercial break. >> i saw it. >> it has been a cold month of

january and january is a cold month, we know that. you get to northern parts of the midwest, day after day we've had temperatures at least in some part of the day dropping below zero, temperatures getting back above freezing even just into the 30's, almost like a heatwave. temperatures this morning chicago in single digits, by later today close to 20. that's not quite the warmup yet. we've had this ridge of high pressure westward. that's been the warm air. this starts to spread over the next couple days. at least we break down that deep penetrating cold that we've had so places like minneapolis possibly to near 40 for friday. this would be the first time, a month that weaver had this type of a temperature. so for other parts of the country, that might not sound that warm, but as i said, if you've been below zero consistently, that is a heatwave. >> we'll take it p.m. nicole mitchell, thank you. >> yemen's branch of al-qaeda claiming the affect on charlie hebdo. the paper released its first

edition since the attack. there is a rush on news stands for a copy. >> in haiti, five years after the earthquake, the children left on their own and where they are now as the country continues to recover. >> new york city police whistle blower frank serpico with a frank discussion on the string of police shootings around the country and what he says needs to change.

internet providers. it is one thing he'll discuss in his state of the union address next week. >> the fuselage from airasia flight 8501 has been locked. underwater images are posted showing the wreckage on the floor of the java sea. you can see the plane's fuselage and logo. >> al-qaeda's top yemen leader say the group was behind the attack on charlie hebdo saying it was an act of vengeance coming as the new issue of the french satirical newspaper hits the news stands. jacki roland is live in paris with us. i understand the particular paper is flying off the shelves. >> it is. charlie hebdo edition is like gold dust here in paris. people were lining up you outside news stands well before dawn well before the news stands opened. in main cases the issues have been bought in advance and there was just nothing on the shelves.

in some cases scuffles broke out with people fighting to get the edition. there will be more issues hitting the stands thursday, friday and the weekend. >> vac a french comedian was arrested for statements he made about the attack. what does that say about the issue of free speech in france? >> this comedian is very controversial. he had a tour can cred because of an anti semitic comedy he he does. after the attacks he tweeted the hash tag that's gone viral

using a name of one of the attackers. they say that supported terrorism and they arrested him early wednesday. he he's now being questioned. >> jacki roland live in paris thank you very much. >> mr. rogers, thank you for joining us. we are choosing not to show the cover of the new issue, charlie hebdo, which is a caricature of the prophet mohammed. a lot of news organizations are making the same decision. i assume you have seen it. what is your take? >> i have seen it. i actually think that it was kind of a brilliant cover because it says all it forgiven, which is you can either take that to mean that the magazine for gives or that muhammed forgives but either way is

satire in the utmost form, sort of blasphemy of mourning. muhammed is holding the we are charlie sign. >> muhammed is crying in that image. >> right. >> when you dig into the issue according to the u.k.'s independence, it is a festival of bad taste. it lampoons muhammed, the pope and french leaders. should we have expected anything less from charlie hebdo? >> no, i think that, you know, if they had pulled back and done something a little bit less, then it would have sent the wrong message. it would have sent a message that terrorists and radical thugs can dictate free speech or the lack of free speech, so i think it was the right thing. >> you just heard our reporter are talking about a comedian in france arrested, suspected of

fix on comments he made. how do you apply the free speech rules in society? >> i think that you have to be aware of free speech has limits. for instance, you know, the old thing about not being able to scream fire in a crowded theater, if you're doing it to incite violence, then there are certain rules and laws that are enacted to protect against that, but i'm not familiar with the situation you're talking about but it sounds to me like that was an unjust arrest. >> it sounds to me like you are saying you don't believe the images that charlie hebdo had published of the prophet mohammed inciting violence. >> i'm not saying they don't incite violence, but i don't think printing a cartoon should be something that is, you know, outlawed or, you know, taken away just because it could have

the potential to in invite violence. there are certainly so many things in this world that could incite violence if the right person or the wrong person decides to act out. >> many of the cartoons featured in this issue out today were drawn by staffers that were murdered a week ago. they seem to nope the risks based on those cartoons. what do you think really drove those cartoonists? >> i think that they realized that cartoons have a lot of power and that they have the ultimate form of free expression in their drawings, and i think that what they also realize is that when you tell somebody they can't do something it's their job to then prove you long. i think that's what they were trying to do. you know, if they were told by the government for instance, that they couldn't draw the leaders, i think they would be drawing the leaders but in this case, you know, they draw religious leaders and other

icons. >> recently we had a comedy film you probably heard about this "the interview" that elicited threats of violence. is political satire under fire more now than it ever was before. >> well, it does seem to be. i, you know, i did several cartoons about the interview, as well, and i actually, you know, also did what i thought was my duty as a citizen who believes in spree speech and saw the movie on the day it was released. i think that it does seem that way, but i don't think kim jong-un is necessarily a good barometer for what is going to happen in the future, but i do think yes with this latest charlie hebdo massacre, i think it is under fire. >> rob rogers, editorial cartoonist at the pittsburgh post gazette, thank you.

>> german chancellor angela merkel among thousands who attended the gathering in berlin for religious tolerance. anti islamic groups say it is further proof that the country needs to revoke it's asylum laws. >> under berlin's iconic brand denberg gate is the sound of prayer. this vigil organized by the muslim council of germany has drown thousands of all faiths and backgrounds. the french attacks have unsettled german society and many muslims fear prejudice and reprise also. >> after the attacks islam is seen as threatening. people are afraid. >> it is very terrible, the image of islam and it is not the image of islam what i want to live and we need a change about

that. >> nearby, the german president chancellor and entire generation of leaders lay tribute at the french embassy. >> the terrorists want to split us apart but achieved the opposite. >> in the wake of the paris attacks, germany is keen to promote tolerance and unity. this is a clear cut rebuke for supporters of the growing anti-islam movement. >> monday night a record 25,000 people took to the streets of dresden, calling for a in itenning of the countries asylum laws. many here reward islam as a by word for violence. they fear a paris style attack is imminent. germany's on a heightened state of alert. this rally in the capitol is bound to diffuse tensions, a reminder that germ newspaper's

identity transcends religion and race. >> a november poll in germany showing 61% of anonymous limbs viewed islam as in compatible with the rest of the modern world. >> italian president formally resigned today. the 89-year-old announced he would end his second term early due to age and fatigue. hits successor will be voted on later this month. the prime minister is losing a critical ally as you pushes for reforms in the midst of a recession. >> 14140 boko haram fighters killed in cameroon. the military organization has been trying to gain ground in the country that neighbors nigeria. one soldier died in the battle. it would be the highest death toll boko haram experienced since the insurgency began. >> the impact of a devastating earthquake five years ago in haiti still apparent.

>> political problems stalling the rebuilding efforts. gabriel returned to meet with a young boy who's life was forever changed by the quake. >> he lost his mother and father in the earthquake. days after the disaster, al jazeera found him in a makeshift orphanage. he was understandably terrified and could not stop crying. in the confusing days afterward he was put into an orphanage with other children, many of whom only had the clothes on their backs. >> five years later, we were able to track him down. he's still one of tens of thousands of haitian children that have been left orphans after the earthquake. let's go see how he's doing now. >> this is your class right here? >> he's now 13, and still living in the same orphanage but that is where the similarities to five ears ago end. he's gained weight and scars from falling rubble have long gone. he's going to school, learned to

receipt and write and soon will graduate middle school next year. he has dreams of becoming a mechanic but he's happy and smiling. his soft voice belying an inner courage. >> i go to school and church. i can sleep well and play with my friends. that's what makes me happy. >> he looks at a video of himself five years ago. it's almost like he can't recognize the boy from back then. today, the orphanage that 22 kids. they are trying to expand to take in more, but funding is short. they use money to make ends meet housing educating and feeding the children. >> it's bittersweet for me. i'm sad because i cannot have the number of children that are brought to me, but i'm happy that at least i can have some like him. >> haiti has many entrenched problems but look hard enough and there are signs of hope.

the boy is now hoping to write his own destiny. al jazeera port-au-prince. >> that earthquake killed more than 200,000 people and left another 300,000 injured. >> back in this country new scrutiny this morning on police in albuquerque. an officer shot and killed a man just hours after two of their colleagues were charged with murder. investigators say the suspect opened fire as he was running from the officers and that he was wearing body armor. two officers who killed a homeless man last year were charged with murder on monday. >> solitary confinement banned for inmates under the age of 21 as a notorious new york city jail. the board are directors voting for that. solitary confinement was phased out for those younger than 18. the move will put the staff at
