they decided they needed to take this coordinated activity and that's what we've seen in the last 90 minutes. what we've heard from debbie wassermann schultz, she calls it a sorted affair. she describes it as great disappointment. nancy pelosi says congressman weiner has the love of his family. she urged the congressman to leave congress without the pressures of being a member of congress. right now not very good news of the democratic party as they are embroiled in this scandal. they would like congressman weiner to leave. there are issues they're fighting including fact that the unemployment rate is 9.1%, deb. they don't want to be caught up in a scandal. >> let me ask you another question. you're in manchester, new

hampshire. the debate is coming up. what are we learning? what can we expect? >> reporter: well, we can certainly expect all of the m major candidates will be on stage. we expect them to talk a lot about jobs, to talk a lot about the economy for many viewers out this. this will be the first introduction to them for many of the candidates. michele bachmann she's a congresswoman from minnesota, they'll see the likes of mitt romney. he ran for the republican nomination. he was unsuccessful in the 2008 campaign. expect monday night to hear these candidates talk a lot about that. expect them to talk a little bit about foreign policy as well. of course, a major issue that the united states is grappling with, that president obama is grappling with. >> stay out there in the rain because we're going to be coming back at you in another half hour. we appreciate it. stand by. congressman weiner has been

adamant he's not going resign and he's also add meant that these new twitter messages are not lewd or inappropriate. jason carroll is in the congressman's home district in queens. jason, it had to be almost surreal when he walked out of his home and you got that interview with him. he's not laying low. he's not hiding. as a matter of fact, he's access recallable, at least as accessible as it takes to get to the dry cleaners. >> reporter: right. he walked out, stopped, spoke for a little bit, was out running errands, he answered questions about sensitive topics. regarding resigning he basically told me, debbie, he would continue on as congressman, that he would not resign. again, that was earlier today before we had all of these statements coming out from top democrats. he also told me, debbie, that he has made a point of reaching out and speaking to democratic

leaders. once you listen to what he's had to say on the first point, that point of resignation. >> just to reconfirm, at this point you have -- >> i have no news. >> and nothing -- >> nothing has changed. >> so you're not resigning. >> so once again you can say nothing has changed, no plans have changed. again, that was earlier this afternoon. you may wonder where he gets a lot of his confidence from. a recent poll shows that 56% of the people here in queens and his district support him. 33% say that he should. and as we were doing this sort of impromptu interview with the congressman, at one point one of the voters walked up and congratulated him but i want you to hear from a different perspective as well. take look at what some of his constituents are saying here this afternoon. >> i support you.

okay. that's your private life. you are a great man. you are the right person in the right position. we all support you. >> thank you. >> all new york are going to make sure you are the next ma r mayor. thank you. >> i appreciate it. very nice of you to say. >> should he resign? >> i guess he should. everybody else is resigning. i don't think he did anything so awful but he's taking away from the party. he's just causing so much furor that we shouldn't be talking about. that's the only reason. i feel sorry to see a man's life fall apart in front of your eyes. it's very, very depressing. >> reporter: and that sort of mirrors with some top democratic leaders are saying at this point. they wonder how effective congressman weiner can be in the wake of the scandal. you heard what pelosi was saying. she's encouraged by the fact that he will go and seek help.

according to a source we have heard that congressman weiner may do that, seek some sort of help with regard to what happened but clooerly according to top leaders, that is not enough. it's too little too late. >> jason carroll, thanks so much. at least with all that support he's got there, it certainly doesn't include another run. jason carroll, thank you so much. for a second weekend in a row a top al qaeda leader is killed. we're going to go to the pentagon for details next. was an archer drawing his bow. ♪ could that have also inspired its 556 horsepower supercharged engine? ♪ the all-new cadillac cts-v coupe. we don't just make luxury cars, we make cadillacs.

that's according to u.s. and

kenyan officials. this is an fbi wanted poster showed touched up photos of fa dual abdullah mohamad. barbara starr joining us live. who is he, why did they want him and how does this disrupt al qaeda in the region? >> this is a sig can't blow to al qaeda according to u.s. officials. in fact, secretary of state hillary clinton just a few hours ago issues a statement. he was believed to be a master mind of several al qaeda attacks in east africa in recent years, is said to be the architect of those 1998 attacks against them in kenya and tanzania. this was a guy, deborah, that the u.s. wanted and wanted bad. there was a $5 million reward on his head.

nay had a tip about where he was. they didn't get him. somalia being one of the most dangerous places for u.s. forces to try to even operate in. so now that they have confirmed through somali government sources that they do believe indeed he's dead, this is good news, but there also is a but, al qaeda and somalia and next-door yemen, on the rise, growing terrorist concern for the united states, so this is still a very tough neighborhood. deborah? >> bausch rarks as an operational guide does it suggest he was building a network and is there there any suggestion that they were uniting to form a 1-2 p hf 2 po

in that region? >> that is the concern. they were concerned about this very point. leon panetta said in written documents to capitol hill that al qaeda's affiliate in somalia but an al qaeda affiliate organization on the rise, may have a couple of hundred of foreign fierts at its disposal and, yes, is trying to link up across the water with al qaeda in yemen. they want to recruit them to come to the state and start attacks here. this is not just some far-off big threat. a lot of concern about what al qaeda in this region may do even though apparently their leader's been killed in this attack, plenty of other people out there in the region they're worried about. deborah? >> all right. perhaps disrupting it at least

>> translator: shortly after i took the job the threatening phone calls started. they asked me to work for them and i said no. then they told me they were going to kill me and my family. >> reporter: at first she ignored the threat bus then she noticed strength men driving by her office and home. she was so scared he'd ask her father to drive her to work. she is hardly a threatening figure, a tiny soft-spoken 21-year-old, who anywhere carried a gun, didn't have bodyguards and said publicly she wasn't tar getting the cartel bus she was getting a lot of media attention, shining the spotlight on the cartel stronghold. >> reporter: they felt threatened by you. >> translator: because we were working on a marvelous project. we were trying to help mothers and small children have a better life so they didn't have to work for the cartel thanlsd didn't like that. >> reporter: she said she received a phone call from the same man who had been threatening to come and get her. she couldn't take it anymore. she decided to leave. didn't pack a suitcase.

little caylee anthony's mouth. the jury, how have they appeared throughout this? >> reporter: the jury is taking notes here and there. they're looking at testified on their screen. they have -- at the courthouse they gave them special screens to try to keep up with all the technical evidence they've seen. they don't get to always watch casey because they're watching the evidence but when some key evidence is shown some are taking a look loo at casey to see how she's reacting, deb. >> interesting. casey had to leave the court early yesterday or the day before because she was so o overcome with emotion, seeing pictures of her child really at the resting place where that child was found. today how did she seem do you? >> she was better today, you're right, deb. on thursday they had to end court around 3:00, 3:30, call court off for the rest of the day because she got so worked up.

they said she was probably having a panic attack sitting there knowing her life is on the line and watching all this evidence come down against her. today she looked a lot more claum. she did look down but she wasn't as bad as before. you talked earlier about the duct tape. there was also other evidence that was brought up concerning the flies in the trunk of the car casey anthony would drive around. there were hundreds of flies there to indicate there was a decomposing body inside the car listen to what casey anthony's lawyer said when he was cross-examinening one of the guys who found the evidence on the crime scene. >> this is the only item where you found hinkle brand duct tape. >> that's correct. >> and it was attached to this gas can. >> that's correct. >> reporter: baez is trying to plant seeds of doubt about the duct tape. there were essentially pieces found, one on her mouth, one on gas tanks nearby and duct tape here and there around the crime

scene which was filled with caylee anthony's bones, remains, and also trash, deb. >> it's fascinating hearing your perspective and watching the trial as it progresses and what must be going through casey anthony's mind. sean lavin, thank you so much. appreciate your insights on that. and earlier today i asked our legal guys richard herman and avery friedman about the graphic nature of this week's testimony of anthony's trial and we talked about the impact it had on the jury. listen to our discussion. >> this is the most dramatic part of the trial, deb. the kre senn doe that the prosecution is building to achieve the obligation of proving the case beyond a reasonable doubt. they've done it carefully, methodically. they even done their part. the skull, the idea of testimony, even about drawing the body into the woods where bones were gnawed by animals

obviously is having an effect. obviously prejudice versus probative, probative prevails. it's a way of prosecuting the case. >> they spent a lot of time about the garbage that was in the trunk of casey's car. first of all, what kind of mother drives around with garbage in her car? it's not even logical. they find traces of chloroform on it. why do you think they're spending so much time on this? >> well, one of the keys to the prosecution's case is casey put the child after she was dead in the trunk and drove around with her for four or five days deciding what to do with the body, is they're trying to show forensically that that body was in the car, that was casey's car, so therefore she had to have killed the child and drove her around in the car. the problem is they can't link casey to driving around with the baby. they cannot link it, deb. the prosecution has a lot of problems. they went overkill on this forensic crime scene photos.

i mean, of course, they're admissible in every case but they went overboard and the overplayed video that they played in court yesterday, that's absolutely going to be grounds for reversible error in this case. that was hor doable that. with a week to go, deb, the government, they haven't done it. they haven't done it in a first-degree murder case. >> avery, you're saying it's probative, which is interesting, but do you thing defense has been able to undermine the evidence produced by the prosecution that george anthony, the father, was the one responsible for caylee anthony's death? has that stuck as far as the cross-examination? >> well, jose baez in the history, in the annals of american law jourk to take the opening statement and put it at the bottom. that has unfortunately set the tone. to answer your question, deb, i don't think much if not all of

the prosecution's evidence undermined in a week. we'll hear the evidence in about a week but the fact is the evidence has been irrefutable. the defense really has not done much of anything to bias the jury into think make there's some justification. i think the defense is in a world of trouble. that's not a surprise to anyone. >> before we segue to the next story, i want to say does she have to testify, avery, yes or no? >> yes. >> richard, yes or no? >> if she testifies, she's going to get convict and get sentenced to zmeekt you can catch our legal guys every saturday at noon jeechb and this just in to cnn. we're hearing new york representative anthony weiner will request a short leave of abscess from congress. according to a spokesperson, the congressman will seek professional treatment to, quote, focus on becoming a better husband and healthier person. this comes as democratic

cnn is hosting the republican presidential hopefuls for a debate in new hampshire on monday night, and it may come at a good time for newt gingrich. he's getting ready to restart his presidential campaign after the sudden resignations of his senior staffers. c in n nn's political leader mark hester is present. >> reporter: he is very politically astute, but you're right. he had very major stumbles out of the gate with the launch of his campaign, but really what it came down to is the incompatibility between what his vision for the campaign was and what the hired guns he brought on to run the campaign thought it was. his senior staff had just quit in the last couple of days. they brought along a lot of key

staffers. when you lose your senior campaign manager and strategists, your campaign goes awry. what we learned from newt gingrich is he had a different vision from what they were saying. he's going restart his campaign tomorrow. he'll be in los angeles tomorrow and attend an event for the jewish assembly. tomorrow he's be in. it has shocked everyone. >> what was the discrepancy in vision. what is gingrich's vision compared to those who are stepping down and where are we going to see them go? >> reporter: well, deb, what we're hearing from his aides is that newt gingrich was not committed to fund-raising. he wasn't committed to going out and making phone calls, which is very hard work for a

presidential kam candidate to get on the phones and make phone calls. he was not willing to go out and do a lot of retail politicking. who could benefit? it could be rick perry who's mullying for the republican presidential nomination. two of the top aides very close to rick perry, rick perry, a favorite of the tea parkt very close to social is conservatives. if he decides to get into the race, all hats are off. >> an issue with fire in the belly, i guess. somebody else looking to get into the campaign or no or the race, i should say. >> there are certainly others we should look at. sarah palin has said she's running or at least looking at running. rudy giuliani is somebody else and mike huckabee who said he would not run, he may be reconsidering. so it doesn't look like the republican field right now is settled. deb. >> mark preston, thank you. we'll check in with you later

filmed by this activist on his cell phone. >> you must have been terrified when this was happened. >> reporter: he smuggled himself across the border to turkey to talk to journalists banned from working in syria. >> translator: i want the world know we want human rights and democracy, he says. this is not a government that governs people. it's a mill live shah that kills and destroys. le this 23 yrd syrian says he was shot in the leg and arm by syrian security forces at another protest. now one of more than 30 syrian gunshot victims being treated at a hospital in turkey. we're oppress and we want our free do. we want our president to be overthrown. he can't show his face because he's terrified of his own government. so are these people.

demonstrators in the northern syrian town. we've gotten the names of at least four demonstrators who were killed in what appears to have been yet another syrian government massacre. this activist was speaking to us from a house, too afraid to go to a hospital because he's afraid he could be arrested there. ivan watson, cnn, turkey. >> we can't overstate that what's happening is not just over there, but there are severe repercussions for us in the united states as well. >> first i want to make this point, that this is the most serious pushback that we have seen from any town in syria, and that's why we see the syrian government cracking down, even with helicopter gun ships and tanks. they have surrounded the city of

this area, you can see there. the city is right there in the north, and that is also an area which in the past has rebelled against the regime. the massacre was committed in 1982 by the current president's father in which more than 10,000 people were killed. so the memory of that is there, these people -- that's why they're so terrified. they know what can happen. and yet we have them pushing back and fight back. >> when soldiers open fire on unarmed demonstrators, what does that tell you? >> we don't know exactly what has happened there. the government says that there were armed gangs that opened fire and this is what happened. the protesters themselves and witnesses say something very, very significant and interesting. they say that the soldiers themselves started fighting against each other when they were ordered to shoot against

unarmed protesters. and this is first time woe've heard of defections from the army. no one is saying the regime will fall from this but this is a very significant government and the syrian government itself is acknowledging that 120 security forces were killed there and that's why they're going and they've surrounded the city. 80% of the people have fled. almost 4,000 are there in turkey. refugees, in panic because of what's going to happen in the city. and the city is surrounded now. tanks and helicopter gunships. we don't know what's going to happen. we don't know what's going on. but this is very significant. >> when we see all of those people swarming into turkey and refugee camps being set up in turkey, what does that do to the dynamic? turkey is an ally of ours, but turkey has also been trying to reach out and bridge the relationship with syria as well. so how do we think about it in those terms? >> what is happening is placing

turkey's prime minister in a very uncomfortable position. he has a very close personal relationship. they have tried to repair their relations because there are significant trades there on both parts to development trade. cri ical block against president ass assad, saying he couldn't support what was happening in syria anymore. he called on president assad to stop the crackdown, and stop attacking sulvcivilians. so that's really important. >> thank you very much. well, summer is the time to get outdoors and have some fun. but violent storms like this one last week in illinois, take a look at that lightning, can suddenly pop up and create havoc. ahead, bonnie schneider has the forecast and important tips on
