francisco bay. the driver and four members of the bachelorette party got out al alive, but the bride and four friends died in the burning car. dan simons is covering the story for us. >> reporter: two of the questions this morning, how exactly did this fire start. and why weren't all of the victims able to escape limousine. and adding to this tragedy, the limo was just a few minutes away from the hotel where they would have the party. it was speupposed to be a nightf celebration for a woman getting married next month in the philippines. but as they crossed the is an ma san mateo bridge, they noticed smoke. >> we got calls of smoke coming from the limousine. the limousine pulled over and it

became engulfed in flames. >> reporter: there were ten people in the limo. the driver and four women escaped. five others including the bride did not. they died in the flames. so badly burned it's reported that dental records will be needed to make positive i.d.st. >> good samaritans did stop and assist and try to pull people from the fire.. >> good samaritans did stop and assist and try to pull people from the fire. >> reporter: the mother of one who survived, distraught but relieved. >> we did not sleep crying and crying. no. thank god that she survived. >> reporter: all of the women were in their 30s or 40s. most if not all were nurses. >> all of us work friday night. so hard that on sunday morning we heard that they died. >> reporter: limousine was

operated pie a compaby a compan limo stop. they said it was deeply saddened bi by the deaths and will do everything possible on determine the cause in order to help bring forth answers and provide closure to the victims and their families. investigators of course will be looking at that limousine for clues. was this an electrical fire, was there some sort of gas leak. it could take days to find out. and, carol, just some information in terms of the survivors. they were apparently in the front of the limousine towards the driver. they were able to get out through the partition that separates the passengers from the driver and then get through a front door. the victims, those who died, were apparently in the back of the car and the flames just spread too quickly and they couldn't get out. >> it says something about the fire that the women in the back of the limousine could not get out. that's how quickly it started. and did the back of the limo explode somewhat would cause

this, what kind thing would cause this? >> reporter: that's an excellent question. we believe that the fire at least investigators are saying that the fire started perhaps in the trunk of the vehicle, but what sparked it, we just don't know. we should also point out that the driver who was not hurt is speaking out and some interesting information here. originally he thought that the women were asking if they could smoke in limousine. when instead they were complaining about the smoke. he then estimates it took about anywhere from 30 seconds to a minute to pull over. so during that period of time, the flames kept getting hotter. the fire started to spread. and before you know it, the back of the car was engulfed. and as we said, four able to get out, but the fire in the rear of the vehicle it just got to them too quickly. >> dan simon reporting live for

us this morning. the san jose mercury news by the way has background on the limo company. quote, according to records from the california public utilities commission, which regulates limousine companies, limo stop is licensed and insured. it was not neededly clear if the company had been cited for previous safety problems. of course we'll continue to follow the story. an unbelievably wild moment for justin bieber at his concert in dubai. apparently it was just too much for an excited belieber who actually rushed the stage and tackled bieber from behind. security had to wrestle that fan to the ground. bieber got right back up, though. he was not hurt. and he went on with his performance. bieber later tweeted dubai nothing stops the show. less than three hours from now, a jury will resume deliberations in the jodi arias murder trial. she's accused of killing travis alexander in 2008. 12 people now have to decide if

she killed in self-defense or 34r57b planned the entire thing. >> imagine what that's like for a jury to sit there in that jury room especially if you were one of those jurors that felt it was kind of close on premeditation but you went along with it because you said, okay being everybody else is doing it. >> they will not only determine if someone is convicted of first-degree murder, but they will determine if someone is sentenced to death. >> if sentenced to death, her time outside of her cell will be extremely limited. she can go outside for exercise three times a week two hours each time and she can have a shower three times a week. >> casey wian is on verdict watch in phoenix, arizona. good morning, casey. >> reporter: good morning. of course jodi arias is on trial for murder and that has been the focus for nearly four months. but a lot of people here in phoenix want to make sure that the victim in this case, travis

alexander, is not forgotten. last night here, they held a candlelight vigil in memory of the man who prosecutors say was brutally murdered by jodi arias nearly five years ago. prosecutors say that she planned the killing, she tried to cover her tracks. and she displayed throughout the trial and in the closing arguments on friday very brutal pictures of travis alexander's body with dozens of stab wounds, with a bullet hole through his temple and with a gaping slash across his throat that nearly decapitated him. defense attorneys say jodi arias did this killing in self-defense and they say it was not premeditated. here is what one legal expert had to say about the defense's strategy. >> heat of passion, sudden quarrel. heat of passion, sudden quarrel. that's what they have to show. because heat of passion sudden

quarrel gets them out of first degree murder and gets them second-degree murder, it could get them manslaughter and could even possibly get them self-defense. nobody really thinks that jodi arias will getting a quitted in this case. so they're trying to save her life.quitted in this case. so they're trying to save her life. they're hoping for second degree or manslaughter and they would take first-degree murder with no death penalty. but that's what will get it there. >> one of the most bizarre moments in a very bizarre case happened on friday during the defense's closing argument. defense attorney telling jurors that nine days out of ten, he doesn't like jodi arias. he urged jurors to put those feelings if they have them aside and he said if she's guilty of anything, she's guilty of manslaughter. obviously trying to spare her life at this point. her fate in the hands right now of a jury consisting of eight men and four women. most of them in their 40s, 50s

and 60s. >> casey wian reporting live this morning. after record highs on friday, investors are wondering how much higher the markets can go. christine romans, do you know is this. >> i've been asking this question for a year and every time i worry they can't go any higher, they do. corporate profits are at record highs. so are stocks. worker pay is flat. so keep that in mind. but if you have a 401(k) or i.r.a., you're feeling the corporate enthusiasm. take a look at where stocks have been. just this year, dow up 14%. nasdaq up 12%. s&p 500 up 13%. and you know i asked matt mccall from penn financial group, i said, look, is now the time to get in at highs. should you use that old wall street saying close your eyes and buy the highs. this is what he said. >> a lot of individual investors are still on the sidelines.

they have been waiting to get in. what are you waiting for? we're hitting all time highs. >> but they're afraid they have already seen a bull market that is already four years old. >> they were afraid at the bottom, they were afraid at the top. they will never get in. >> so he's been telling me that for a year. get in now if you want to own stocks. and s&p capital iq says stocks are still inexpensive. he says this bull market has been 140%, 140%, rise for the s&p 500. but he says when you look at valuations, they're still below average for stocks. so some people still it still could go higher. but worker point is play, corporate profits are at records. >> all right. got it. christine romans, thanks so much. americans looking for good old fashioned escapism turn to a super hero this weekend. >> the mandarin must be stopped.

>> yes, he must. but no stopping iron man. it raked in more than $175 million. here is a look at the top five all-time. this time last year, the avengers earned the top spot. at number three, harry potter and the deathly hallow. s. that was my favorite. and rounding out the top five, the original dark knight from five years ago. just ahead in the newsroom, a community is in shock after a recreational soccer league referee dies after being punched in the face. and a soccer player stands accused.

mourning after a recreational soccer league referee died after being punched in the face by a teenager. that's 17-year-old sock he player initially charged with aggravated assault will likely now face more serious charges. here is more from stephanie elocat elocate.elam. >> reporter: members of the community came together to remember a dedicated family man. >> he took a part of me with m him. >> reporter: the referee probably never saw the blow coming. the blow that would ultimately end his life. >> i'm in shock because besides a ref, he's a friend of mine. >> reporter: it happened during an april 27 match for a recreational soccer league just outside salt lake city. after portillo called a foul on a 17-year-old goalie. >> the goalie pushed one of the forwards from the back. >> reporter: the goalie retaliated by punching the 46-year-old referee in the head.

>> when he was writing down his notes, he just came out of nowhere and punched him. >> reporter: portillo was taken to the hospital with what was believed to be a minor injury, but he had suffered serious internal head injuries and lapsed into a coma. after a week in that condition, he died saturday night. johana, his eldest daughter, had spoken with jake tapper the day before he died. she told him her father had lived for his three daughters and for soccer. >> his passion was being there the whole weekend just refereeing. he loved soccer. and it was just really bad. we never thought this would happen. he loved what he did and it was his passion. >> reporter: the family knew the chance of recovery was slim. >> the doctor says only a miracle will bring my daddy back. >> reporter: the teen who is not being identified because of his age was arrested two days after the incident on preliminary charges of aggravated assault. charges that will likely be

upgraded now that portillo has died. stephanie elam, cnn, los angeles. and still ahead in the newsroom, remember those reports of the syrian government used sarin gas on its own people? according to one united nations official, it wasn't the syrian government, but rebel forces who might have been behind those deadly poisoned gas attacks. we make meeting times, lunch times and conference times. but what we'd rather be making are tee times. tee times are the official start of what we love to do. the time for shots we'd rather forget, and the ones we'll talk about forever. in michigan long days, relaxing weather and more than 800 pristine courses make for the perfect tee time. because being able to play all day is pure michigan. your trip begins at michigan.org. i'm also a survivor of ovarian a writand uterine cancers.

i even wrote a play about that. my symptoms were a pain in my abdomen and periods that were heavier and longer than usual for me. if you have symptoms that last two weeks or longer, be brave, go to the doctor. ovarian and uterine cancers are gynecologic cancers. symptoms are not the same for everyone. i got sick...and then i got better.

accusation that israeli warpl e warplanes struck inside of syria. and hit that research facility. but the syrian government has been saying that and been very angry over it. also lebanon mentioning that there were a lot of israeli planes that were in the air that had violated lebanese air space over that time, over saturday night into sunday. and the lebanese very angry about that. but what we can tell you is that time and again, the israeli government has said that they will not allow very dangerous conventional weapons or dangerous chemical weapons, weapons of mass destruction, to move into the hands of hezbollah, a group that both israel and the united states considers a terrorist organization which is on the other side of the lebanese border. we are here where an area was

war was coming to the doorstep, rockets being fired here and the great concern israel has is not necessarily that syria will have a full scale war with israel because it's so weakened from this two year plus war that it's had inside its own country, but worried that there could be some sort of reaction from hezbollah which is backed pie iran and that is why there are two iron dome anti-missile batteries put in place in this part of the border about that. >> so i'm hoping you can clear up confusion. there are reports coming from one official that it wasn't the government allegedly using this nerve agent, it was actually the syrian rebel forces. what are you hearing? >> reporter: well, this is the first time we've heard a u.n. agency and investigator talk about the possibility that it was actually the rebels according to this investigator that was using this sarin gas.

we did hear earlier this month from israel and the brigadier general saying that they saw evidence that the regime was indeed the one that had used the sarin gas in particular against the rebels in small quantities. the u.s. has been less definite knit on exactly who was using it, but saying they did believe small quantities of sarin gas had been used and pointed towards the regime. this gives you some idea of just how confusing things are on the ground in syria as to what exactly is going on and how difficult it is sometimes to get very concrete evidence and concrete information that governments can stick with, which may be one of the reasons why you're not seeing reactions from these governments like you did for example in libya, where suddenly there was a no-fly zone put in place. a lot of concern about how these chemical weapons are being used, whether or not they have gotten into the hands of other groups there, whether those groups are

friendly for example to the united states and to western countries or not. so a lot of confusion, a lot of difficulty figuring out exactly what is going on on the ground there in syria which has had a two year plus civil war. >> sara sidner reporting live for us. other stories we're watching in the newsroom at 31 past the hour, opening bell on wall street, u.s. stock futures edged higher this morning after markets hit record highs last week. dow once again near the 15,000 mark. ringing the bell, thomas curry from the office of the comptroller of the currency. now to boston where officials are trying to find a final resting place for one of the suspected boston bombers. at least three cemeteries have refused to bury tamerlan tsarnaev's body fearing a public backlash. plus one of three friends of dzhokhar tsarnaev is due in court today at 2:00 eastern. 19-year-old robel phillipos is accused of lying to authorities and federal authorities searched

control of the nation's most popular gun rights organization. incoming president jim porter will guide the nra during a contentious time. like the organization, porter is no stranger to controversy. once calling the civil war the war of northern aggression. his term comes as the federal government and several states consider new gun control laws. but at this weekend's convention in houston, porter made clear his aim is squarely on the president. >> there is something obama will never, never understand. the second amendment. the freedom of our republic trumps the chicago political machine and its gun ban agenda every time. >> the nra capped its convention by hosting a youth day and gun control advocates took issue with that pointing to what happened in kentucky just last

week. a 5-year-old cumberland county kentucky boy accidentally shot and killed his 2-year-old sister. authorities say the boy was playing with a rifle marketed to children. the gun is called cricket. here is how the company advertises that gun. >> my first rifle, a moment you never forget. with a safety promoting design, the cricket is the perfect way to give younger small framed shooters started right. find yours online or ask at your local dealer. >> the company denied its marketing to children, but the controversy goes on. the director of child advocacy in louisville, welcome. >> good morning. >> this your mind when you watch this youtube video with that marketing campaign, is that company marketing to kids? because it says it's not. >> well, when you look at their website and you look at the guns that they have available for children, these guns are in colors that would be very

attractive to young little kids. so in a sense, they are marketing to children. >> but it's the parents who have to buy the kids the gun. >> absolutely the parents have to buy the children the gun. but if kids see other kids with these lethal weapons that are embodied in very colorful cases, they think that's very cool and very trendy and will encourage their parents to buy the gun for them. >> no charges have been fired against the parents in the kentucky case. the coroner called it a crazy accident and that's a direct quote. but there still may be charges fil filed. what do you think should happen? >> i hate to speak to that because this family is going through unimaginable horror. it's not up to me to judge. it is up to me as an advocate to prevent this from happening through intervention and education.

and that's really what we need to talk about. we need to talk about the fact that we have a 2-year-old that is dead and a 5-year-old that killed his 2-year-old sister. and what we can can learn from this as a society and as a nation. >> well, a lot of people in that county own guns. in fact there was a quote from a law enforcement official that he said that probably every single family in consume better land county owns a gun. and their children use guns. they grow up with guns.better l county owns a gun. and their children use guns. they grow up with guns. is what's wrong with teaching your child to handle a gun responsibly. >> teaching your child about gun danger is absolutely the responsibility of a parent. but let's talk about a 5-year-old and growth and development with a 5-year-old. a 5-year-old is just now learning how to tell time. a 5-year-old has gone from holding a big crayon for now holding a little crayon. a 5-year-old is learning how to

use blunt scissors to cut squares out of a piece of paper. you have to position of where they are mentally and physically before you can even begin to teach them. we have a safety curriculum in which we teach 6500 second graders gun safety through two retired police officers here in the city of louisville. after that education, would we give a second grader a gun just paced on our training and education? no we would not do that at all. education? no we would not do that at all. education? no we would not do that at all. >> you know what gun rights advocates will say. you're just using one isolated tragedy to fight for what you personally believe in. >> oh, carol, there is more than one isolated tragedy. if you look online, you will see that just a few months ago, a 5-year-old in michigan killed himself. if you read the articles, 3-year-olds, 2-year-olds, 5-year-olds, 10-year-olds, they are all killing themselves.

and killing others with a gun. the american academy of pediatrics in their 2012 statement states very clearly that the only safe home for a child is a home without a gun. and it's up to us if parents choose that right and have that privilege of owning a gun that they have to step up and take responsibility for that gun and for the ammunition within their home. >> all right. director of child advocacy, thanks so much and i do have some statistics to pass along to you just in case you're curious. in 2009, according to the cdc, . 66 of those were teenagers. still ahead, marijuana is a booming business in colorado. and it will only get bigger with recreational pot sales leaving many marijuana business owners feeling very nervous.

trimming to working as caregivers in the stores. >> reporter: so far, his business has been limited to medical marijuana. selling only to colorado residents with a doctor's recommendation and state issued red card. but last year voters passed amendment 64 legalizing recreational use of marijuana. the state is still working out regulations ahead of january 2014 when recreational marijuana stores are expected to open. december pensries are expected to be away to convert and sell to anyone over 21, but there are several catches. this is still against federal law. that must create an unbelievable amount of stress for you. >> yes, it does. i'm talking to you right now. there is a voice in the back of my head that there is an innate nervousness to being in this business. >> reporter: a bill in congress would bar the federal government from going after people in states that have legalized marijuana. but it's unclear if the bill has a chance of becoming law.

background check, employees are issued a colorado marijuana worker i.d. card. every time a plant is moved, the employee logs it using this software, a finger print scanner tracks the employees at every turn. >> there is no scar face here. no ak-47. none of that stuff. we have inspectors from the state in here all the time. >> reporter: even though gindi pays sales and income tax, marijuana is still against federal law, so expenses cannot be deducted from federal taxes and fdic backed banks won't take their money. >> there is nothing glamorous about this business. it's a struggle trying to operate without a bank account, trying to run a business without being able to take deductions. >> reporter: at his dispensary, he operates in a highly competitive market place. about 500 compete for the business of the 108,000 people on the medical marijuana registry. >> you don't ever see

quote/unquote swag anymore. it's all chronic, all high row uponic. >> reporter: competition has driven prices down to half of what they were just three years ago, creating razor thin margins. but could that change when more people are able to legally buy weed? gindi isn't so sure. >> there is a risk that comes along with it. >> reporter: that might push the federal government into acting. >> right. and i have to make that choice. >> reporter: these marijuana pioneers will probably never convince all of their critics that pot should be legal, but they see themselves as the good guys. >> every single person that comes here that works for me when they clock in, they put their finger on a sensor and know they are committing a federal crime. so they're all here for one reason and it's because we believe that marijuana prohibition is immoral and that we have to do something about that. >> reporter: jim spell man, cnn, denver. and tomorrow in his pot boom

unvail how it plans to distribute $28,000,000 in donations to the bombing victims and their families. they tell cnn the money will fall short of compensating them for long-term care. >> never underestimate the charitable impulse of the american people. it's a great deal of money. it will be distributed wisely, but enough, absolutely not. >> in the meantime, the area's raw emotions cast the accused master mind of the attack in limbo. more than two weesks the older bombing suspect was killed in a police shoot out, the city of cambridge says he cannot be buried there. cemeteries across the area also shunning requests to bury tamerlan tsarnaev on their grounds. the funeral director tasked with making those arrangements is asking the public to rise above the anger and allow him a burial site for the sake of human compassion. >> at this point, any outcome will be better than nothing.

we do have to bury the person. regards to what he did -- this country we bury the dead. funeral directors have done this for years and continue to do it. when there's no problem, it's very easy with the cemetery but this say big problem. somebody has to step in and say look, we're going to have to do something here and we have to. i have gone as far as i can go with it. >> our next guest agrees the dead bombing suspect deserves a burial but says there is no place for him at a muslim holy place. he is previeding over the mosque in brighton chestnut hills, massachusetts. thank you for being with us this morning. >> thank you. >> you said you will not preside over tamerlan tsarnaev's funeral, why? >> it's not in the public interest of the membership of yusuf mosque nor would it be in the public interest of any mosque in the common wealth of

massachusetts and america for that matter, to bury such a controversial individual that has done something -- who is alleged to have done something very heinous. we look to the community. i am a born and raised bostonian. so we have deep feelings about what has happened. for those reasons, we go back to the family for a private disposal of their affairs. >> when you say it's not in the public interest, what do you mean by that. >> this man has done something that is very, very evil, or he is alleged to have done something that is very evil. and we don't stand with evil. we are people of conscience and our conscience dictates we do not support evil. it becomes a family matter for us. how his family wants to dispose of his body, his relatives, that

matter resides with them. we do not interfere with it and there's no obligation on us as muslim clergy to do the funeral for the family. there's no obligation that requires us to do so so we don't. we obstain. if someone did agree to preside over the funeral, would that imam fear backslash. >> certainly and rightly so. we are very concerned. we are concerned with how our neighbors perceive us. that is very important to the muslims. we don't want people looking at us as though we are impathetic in anyway to what has happened at the hands of this man and his brother. so, for that reason, we want to be very clear that we are bostonians, we are bay staters and we are with our fellow citizens.

>> it is against your religion to be cremated so what do you suggest to the family they do with this man's body? >> if he is from russia or wherefowhere ever he is from, they should take money out and lay him to rest according to their own understanding of islam in terms of burying him in his country of origin. that's probably the best solution for them. >> i reached out on facebook and twitter and asked people what should be done with tamerlan tsarnaev's body. the comments were not kind. a lot of people saying they should dump his body in the dumpster and bury him at sea right next to osama bin laden. what do you say to those people? >> well, you know, i would respond to that -- what i would say is today i stand here in

memory of martin richard and i stand here in member of lu ling su and the countless others here, bostonians and people who were here at the marathon and hurt. we're more concerned with the victims. we're not that concerned with the tsarnaev's and their family matters, how they intend to dispose of the body of the older brother, we look in anticipation to see what will happen to the younger brother, that he's been apreheaded, that the law is fully met out with regard to him and that he is brought to full justice for what has happened. so we're not concerned with the family at all. >> imam, thank you for joining us this morning. >> thank you. >> now, let's shift the focus back to where it belongs, the victims. here's a quick update on some of the survivors. at last night's boston bruins

hockey game jeff bauman waved the flag and the crowd went wild. the imagine of a smiling triumph of bauman is different than when the nation first saw him. his wounds proved a sobering reminder of the carnage unleashed by the bomb. he helped put streerns trail of the brothers. you may remember the story of 7-year-old jane richard. her brother was the youngest victim killed in the attack. her mother suffered a serious brain injury and she lost a leg. the little girl was an avid student of irish dance. and that community, the dancing community turned it's support to her. across metro d.c., groups help fund-raisers -- held fund-raisers to help the family pay their bills. jurors will resume deliberations in the jodi arias murder trial.

she is accused of killing her exboyfriend travis alexander in 2008. the jury will decide if she killed in self-defense or planned it. and police are investigating why a limo suddenly burst into flames on a bridge over san francisco bay. the limo was carrying member of a bachelorette party. four of them and the driver made it out alive, but the bride and four of her friends died in the fire. >> dan simon is in california. do investigators have any idea yet what caused this fire. >> reporter: they don't, carole. other than to say they believe it started somewhere in the trunk area. they don't suspect any criminal activity whatsoever. it seems to be just one of those freak occurrences and it's just absolutely heart breaking. here you have a 31-year-old woman who is about to get married. she is going to return to her native philippine s.

she has a bachelorette party. she is a nurse and they gather up her friends and get in a limousine and somewhere behind me on the bridge they realize there's smoke in the back of the limousine. they alert the driver. he pulls over. four of them get out, they're okay. they're rushed to the hospital. but five of them are unable to get out of the limousine and they're burned to death and we spoke to -- at least our affiliates spoke to friends of these nurses and this is what one of them had to say. >> we have an inside joke when it's time we are so busy and we will say is it time for tea. so friday, for some reason, that was the only night we didn't say is it time for tea. and now she's gone.

>> reporter: the driver was unhurt. he has spoken out and he basically says at a certain point he thought that the nurses were asking if they could smoke in the limousine. he was confused and he realized that they weren't asking if they could smoke. they were complaining about the smoke. it took anywhere from 30 seconds to a minute to pull over and obviously the flames just advanced to quickly. >> dan simon reporting live for us this morning. beyonce breaking her silence on her controversial trip to cuba with her husband jay-z. hear what she has to say about visiting havana, next. all business purchases.

people watch congress and say, are they doing anything that impacts my life, today the answer will be yes. if you're one of millions that likes to shop online, this something you need to listen to. now if you buy online you're doing it for convenience but you also have a perk of avoiding most sales tax. this bill would change that. it would require online retailers to tax all purchases sales tax like if you're going to a store and buying it. supporters say this protects bricks and mortar businesses including small businesses that already had to charge tax and they're having a hard time competing with the tax for internet but opponents argue it hurt small businesses and it subjects them to new paperwork and regulations and will cost them money. >> what are internet retailers saying. >> reporter: it's interesting. the biggest, like amazon.com they're pushing for this because they feel it would simplify their complicated tax issues but there's another big name on the internet, ebay, they're fighting

tooth and nail. but even after this does pass the senate and it's expected to later today it still has to go to the house where republicans are in control and they're wary of spoeting for anything that can be viewed a new tax or tax increase. >> it's always something. thank you. seven minutes past the hour. a florida teenager is shrugging off a shark bite that sent him to surgery. he was catching waves when a shark attacked his foot as he dangled his foot from the board. >> one of my last waves in and i kicked off the wave and i was off my board. when i went to go back on the board, the shark bit me right in the foot and i immediately tried to yank it out. it was crazy how i didn't even feel it. >> teenager is recovering from an operation that repaired his

retaliated the way we want and the retaliation was always painful to israel. and they will suffer again. sara sidner is live where the government deployed antimissile batteries to guard against retaliation. first of all, is israel confirming it's behind these air strikes. >> reporter: it is not confirming, not publicly or officially saying it cannot confirm or deny it had anything to do with air strikes. we're talking about two air striex over the last three days. we can tell you we are hearing into cnn from u.s. officials that are confirming they believe it was israel that struck inside of syria, twice, one thursday night into friday and sunday. the u.s. officials saying they believe the first place that was hit was actually the airport where there was a weapon's storage site. the second place hit was the research facility that may have been housing a large amount of

weapons as well. one of the weapons mentioned is this weapon and we were able to speak with the former head of israel's missile defense system program and he talked about the danger of this particular missile saying if this particular missile got into the hounds of hezbollah, an organization that exists in lebanon that is a proxy for iran and is an enemy to israel, both consider it a terrorist organization, that this missile could easily, because it is a long range missile, hit into any part of israel and it is extremely accurate. the near is the accuracy because there are long range missiles that they know both syria and hezbollah both possess but the accuracy is not as great. with this missile the accuracy is much better. there's a concern that those weapons will be transferred into the hands of hezbollah and at

some point in time used against israel. israel not confirming or denying that it hit inside of syria. there has been movement here of certain things such as the iron dome anti-missile systems, those have been put in place here in the north. just a couple of batteries in case there is any kind of movement coming over the border here near lebanon. the big concern that hezbollah will react when syria has a difficult time reacting because it's been dealing with it's own internal problems. a war that's gone on for two plus years now. >> reporting live from israel this morning. coming up in the nuz room, a statement by the nra over the weekend is raising quite a few eyebrows today. one of leaders says more homeowners should be been packing heat during the search for the boston bombing suspects. is that a legitimate argument? we'll talk about that next. les

to be okay. and then he said -- he looked at me and he went like that and he started crying. he was like, no. after that he started going into shock. they pulled me into the room and that was the last time i saw my dad conscious. >> in other news this morning, islamist protestors turned the treat of bangladesh into a war zone. 14 people were killed and 75 injured during a protest. islamists are demanding the government pass tougher laws. officials are trying to find a final resting place for the older suspected boston bomber. three cemeteries refused to bury tamerlan tsarnaev saying they fear a public backlash. plus one of the friend of the younger bombing suspect due in court today. robel phillipos is accused of

lying to authorities. and finally, officials from one fund boston will announce a plan to distribute $28,000,000 to bombing victims and their families. the search for the boston marathon bombing suspects is a new point for the nra. two weeks ago residents of boston of watertown, massachusetts were told to stay inside their homes as police searched door to door for the younger bombing suspect. eventually he was found unarmed. at the nra's conference this weekend the executive vice president posed this question to tens of thousands of attendants, how many in boston probably wished they had a gun. >> imagine waking up to a phone call from the police at 3:00 a.m. in the morning warning that a terrorist event is occurring outside and ordering you to stay inside your home? i'm talking, of course, about

boston, where residents were imprisoned behind the locked doors of their own homes. a terrorist with bombs and guns, just outside. frightened citizens sheltered in place with no means to defender themselves or their families from whatever might come crashing through their door. how many bostonians wished they had a gun two weeks ago. >> of course very few people are saying guns need to be taken out of homes across the country. the bill just defeated in country dealt with expanded background checks. so are gun control advocates starting a fight that's not there? jason johnson is the chief political correspondence for politic 365. will cain is an analyst. let's start with you. is he fighting a fight that isn't being fought at the

moment? >> absolutely that fight is there. that fight is underlying every single gun debate we have. i suspect, and this is not just wild speculation, if you gave gun control advocates truth serum, they don't like the second amendment and woulgd like to get rid of guns. they would just like to get rid of them. that's not me speculating. add together the proponents and the bills they have put forward. first it was an attempt to get rid of, what, military style tactical strategic made up category of weapons. that was followed by background checks in the pretense of getting rid of guns in criminals hands and the latest is to talk about the tragic accidental violence situations where kids are hurt in home. the only commonality is to stigmatize guns. so he is addressing that basic truth underlying all of the debates. >> is he saying we shouldn't bring up these tragedies just

because? because he brought up a tragedy, didn't he? >> no, this is just bragging. it's bragging. the war has been won. the nra won. gun control did not happen. this is simply wayne trying to keep himself in the press and talking about the nra and their accomplishments. the number of applicants for gun applications has gone up in boston. there's a number of states that have loosened the laws when it comes to gun control since sandy hook. this is not a fight or real issue. the government isn't taking anyone's guns and if anything, catching them would be been more difficult if everyone was running around the streets. >> couldn't you make the argument from the other side because in the state of massachusetts it's illegal to buy a gun if you're under the age of 21 and dzhokhar tsarnaev was 19. i don't know he could get a gun easily somewhere else. but you could argue the other way. >> it sounds like he did. it illustrates the point that criminals know how to get their hands on guns.

>> he was found unarmed in that boat. >> exactly. >> you're going to tell me dzhokhar tsarnaev in the entire fight didn't have a gun. >> they found one gun with the older brother. this is just the information that's out there right now. >> i think it illustrates the point that criminals get their hands on gun. when you advocate for gun control loss you make it tougher for law abiding citizens to get guns and having little affect on the criminals. >> if we get back to the real issue, he is totally off the subject. boston was a clear example of why we need professionals with guns in order to solve these problems. this was a massive shoot out. it was taken care of my professionals. no one was knocking on people's doors and saying giving up their guns. that was the problem with the nra. they want to talk about these huge liberal attacks which are not happening and clearly weren't even going to occur with

the congressional bill. >> we have to end it there. i wish we could go on. we could continue this argument until the cow's come home. isn't that the old saying? many thanks to both of you. i want to hear what you think. facebook.com/carolcnn or tweet me. >> we're on verdict watch as jury deliberations resume later this morning in jodi arias's murder trial. we'll take you live to the courthouse, next. my moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. i decided enough is enough. ♪ [ spa lady ] i started enbrel. it's clinically proven to provide clearer skin.

that she did kill travis alexander but it happened in the heat of passion during an argument that erupted quickly and that travis alexander actually played a role and may have been the cause of that argument and the final option is not guilty. they could return a verdict of not guilty, even though jodi arias has admitted she killed travis alexander the jury could find that she did it in self-defense. the defense has been trying to raise that argument. all of the focus has been on jodi arias in this case. some frensd and supporters of traveling violation sis alex sand -- of travis alexander and his family held a candle light vigil last night. they want people to remember the victim that has been dragged through the mud in this trial. >> reporting live from phoenix this morning. who knew there were so many believers in the middle east. details on why security had to jump in and protect justin

jersey but it's not for lack of trying on the mayor's part. he is lobbying hard to have him visit his city. he is joining me live. welcome mr. mayor. >> thank you. thanks for having me on. >> thank you for being here. you have been lobbying hard. any success? >> we haven't got confirmation yet but he'll be up and down the jersey shore which is helpful for the entire region. as far as belmar was hit so was the rest of the jersey shore. it's porget to have an -- it's important to have an event like him coming. it means a lot to residents and small businesses to have him come. >> it will turn media attention to the area to help. have you reached out to governor christie. >> yes, we're in constant contact with the governor's office. his leadership has been outstanding through this process. >> no, i mean, to help harry get to your town. >> we have reached out for that

but there's several towns also lobbying hard. i know we're in the mix but we don't have any confirmation just yet but the fact that he is coming to the jersey shore benefits all the towns here. >> your beach and boardwalk are scheduled to reopen later this month. is that still on schedule. >> yeah, we're looking forward to having a grand opening on wednesday, may 22nd for a brand new boardwalk. it was destroyed by hurricane sandy and six and a half months later we have it entirely rebuilt. >> when you look at it now, what goes through your mind. >> just the resolve of the residents in our country and the leadership that we have had from the president all the way down to help us rebuild and have this new rebirth in time for memorial day weekend here at the jersey shore. that weekend is so important to us. so to have it done in time was something we had to accomplish and we're going to.

>> that's terrific. okay. so of course cnn is seen all over the world. prince harry, you never know, maybe watching. any message you would like to send. >> you know, we love the fact that he is here in the u.s. helping our military veterans and we would love to have him walk on our brand new 1.3 mile boardwalk here in belmar and we will give him a royal welcome. >> i'm sure you will. thank you for being with us this morning. >> my pleasure. thank you. >> we'll be right back
