yet, but bombers are one of the many options on the table. what can the president do? he's in st. petersburg where world leaders seem not quite sold on a military strike on the assad regime. an assad backer, vladimir putin is not giving ground. jill is in st. petersburg this morning. what are obama's plans for the day? >> reporter: well, i have to mention last night. that was crucial. they were talking into the wee hours of this morning. about 2:00 in the morning about syria. and no meeting of the minds, in fact, really split down the middle about syria. then this morning, he met with the president of china. they didn't specifically mention the word syria, but did mention disagreements and sources of tension they discussed. they think they can manage those areas of disagreement.

on his schedule today, he's got a bilateral with the president of france, remember france, of course, supporting the idea of military action in syria. he has a news conference, then also a meeting with civil society. that will include gay lgbt activists. there's a law in russia, the antihomosexual agent. the president will talk about that. >> people were talking about how late putin kept everyone up with the entertainment and everything. the president didn't get back to his room until 1:30 a.m. one of the issues that followed president obama to st. petersburg is the issue of addressing the american people. does he need to explain why he thinks the u.s. should strike syria? any news on that front? >> reporter: well, there was an official who briefed us

yesterday and said that indication is that they expect he will. they are not saying when. they are not saying precisely where. i think you can expect that, john. >> jill, great to see you this morning. in syria, a warning the images you are about to see are graphic. new questions about the rebels fikting the assad regime. members of congress expressed reservations that we don't know enough about the people on the other side. this video is painting a disturbing picture. it shows a brutal execution by the rebels. we are in beirut with that part of the story. tell us, what do we know about this video? >> reporter: well, pamela, it's an extremely disturbing and graphic video released by "the new york times." they report this shows a rebel brigade. you can see a commander in this video who is identified.

he reads a poem about revenge. after that, the men in his command, they start shooting the prisoner that is are in front of them in the backs of their heads. now, this video has been released at a very sensitive time. at a time when there is a growing debate about if the rebels should be supported and how much at a time when president obama is seeking congressional approval for limited air strikes on syria. in th is certainly not the first time we have heard of atrocities committed by syrian rebels. it begs the question, these rebels, they are such a fractured group, how many of them are affiliated with islamists? how many are moderates? as the debate grows, lawmakers want to know. they have been asking this question for quite some time. it's not the first time they have been accused of committing war crimes. we have gotten word from the main opposition group that they

have condemned what they have seen in this video. anybody perpetrating war crimes in syria, no matter what side they are on should be punished. this doesn't ease the fears at hand. many sim for awhile, what happens if there's a power vacuum in syria. can somebody step up and really take command over these rebel groups? now you have u.s. lawmakers, some telling cnn they have seen classified intelligence suggesting 50% of rebel soldiers are affiliated with extremists. john kerry saying it's 15%. still, it's worrying. what people are saying is as brutal and murky as the war is in syria, one thing is clear, the rebels, they say, are involved in committing war crimes. that is something that is making it so much more worrying at this particular time. pamela? >> that video is so disturbing. thank you so much. news back home.
