le! for all the confidence you need. td ameritrade. you got this. hello and welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. ahead, jordan retaliates after the brutal killing of one of its own. also a passenger plane slams into the water in taipei. we'll have details on the crash. a commuter plane plows into an suv in new york. we'll have the latest on that investigation. we start in jordan where two prisoners have been executed. al qaeda prisoners in retaliation for the isis murder of a jordanian fighter pilot. one of the prisoners was sajida
10:01 pm
al rishawi, who isis demanded jordan set free. >> jordan was considering trading her for captured fighter pilot moath al kasasbeh. but those hopes were smashed tuesday when isis released a video of him being burned alive. u.s. intelligence officials say there's no reason to doumt the video is real. jordan's king abdullah cut short his trip to washington. he has promised an earth shaking response to moath al kasasbeh's murder. >> the brutal murder of the jordanian fighter pilot and the execution of the two al qaeda prisoners, phil black joins us. a lot of people are saying the jordanian military will be upping its involvement. that would be welcome news to the kurd there is in irbil. >> reporter: that's right, any
10:02 pm
move to increase pressure on isis will be received very warmly here. people have been shocked by the nature of this latest isis execution. this is a place where people are dealing with the threat of isis daily. and so they will likely also welcome the swift response from jordan seeking its revenge, by executing these two prisoners there, as well. sajida al rishawi and another prisoner are linked to what is considered to be an earlier incarnation to what eventually became isis. in the case of al rishawi, she was in custody in relation to a coordinated suicide attack that killed around 60 people in 2005. she is someone whose release
10:03 pm
isis demanded. they said if she had been handed open isis would have spared the life of kenji goto and would not have executed moath al kasasbeh. jordan said it was willing to take part in that trade but would not proceed until isis produced some evidence showing his well-being. it did not receive that. we have some understanding of why that was not possible. the jordanian authorities believe that moath al kasasbeh was killed as early as a month ago. >> when we talk about military options for the jordanians it raises the question of how effective that u.s.-coalition has been with those air strikes, because there seems to be a lot of conflicting information coming from the pentagon and others who say isis has been stopped. but the reality from where you stand, what is it? >> reporter: it's very much an ongoing battle and the results have been mixed.
10:04 pm
20 minutes from here are some of the front lines against isis. they're trying to stop isis and also seize background taken by isis last year. to the west of here mosul, iraq's second largest city, firmly under isis control. kurdish fighters are trying to cut off connection and they have had some success. in that regard isis is very much under pressure. coalition air strikes have continued, as well. but despite that isis has shown it's still prepared to lash out, go on the offensive. it's made an attempt to grab new territory around the iraqi city of kircut a significant city because of its oil reserves.
10:05 pm
it's taken some ground. but that's a new front that's been opened by isis. so it all shows, and that's what the kurdish leaders are saying that this is going to be a long battle. and the air strikes alone, certainly not sufficient to stop isis' attempt to advance through this region. >> phil black live for us in irbil. thanks phil. zain? jordan has more than 100,000 active troops the air force was also modernized recently. dozens of f-16 fighter jets were added to its fleet. we spoke to lieutenant colonel james reese about jordan's military options. >> we could see what we would call a combined arms operation. the jordanians are very capable of doing that. when i say combined arms they could use air power, they have great artillery and ground power they could move up to the syrian
10:06 pm
border, maybe look at some targets along the euphrates river valley. or they've got a great special operation force. they might hook for targets they could do a cross border air assault in strike the targets and move back out. so they have great options. they have the coalition to support them if need be. they could do it unilaterally. we'll have to watch and see what king abdullah decides to do with the jordanian armed forces. >> we'll have much more on jordan throughout the hour here. but there is also other news to report. a deadly plane crash in taiwan. >> a transasia airways plane hit a bridge before crashing into a river. '9" 58 people were on board. cnn's david mckenzie is joining me now. i know flight control lost contact with the plane after
10:07 pm
takeoff. but do we have any updates in terms of what may have caused this crash? >> reporter: we don't know at this stage, but we do know that this plane made a very dramatic crash landing in taipei. this is a turboprop plane with some 50 odd passengers on board, which banked heavily soon off takeoff and clipped an aerial highway in the capital, smashly partially into a taxi on that road and landing in the river. there's been a furious effort by rescue workers in the river there. the fuselage of the plane, partially submerged. as they pulled people out of the wreckage more than a dozen people appeared to have been saved. tragically these nine people are dead according to state media there.
10:08 pm
it appears the rescue efforts are ongoing. this is the second deadly crash by this airline in a little under seven months. in july last year more than 50 people died when a similar airplane or the same makeup of an airplane crashed in bed weather. so certainly questions being asked at this point about the safety record. but taiwan generally in recent years has had a very good record before this past year. >> and we're just looking at some shocking video of part of the fuselage, partially submerge submerged in the water. walk us through the rescue operation process. i know it's still ongoing. >> reporter: certainly it seemed there were fire trucks on the scene, as well as small craft were taken out by the rescue workers. they were seeing clamoring all
10:09 pm
over that fuselage and many onlookers on the side of the grassy bank of that river. this is near the center of taipei so this one-hour night was cut short early and miraculous in a way that several people were pulled out of the plane. chinese state media saying at least 30 were tourists from china. so certainly it's unclear whether any of those from mainland china survived. but it does appear to still be an ongoing rescue effort in the river in taipei to try to get some people out. >> that rescue operation happening as i speak. i know that those rescuers have a having difficult task ahead of them. many thanks david. at least seven people have died and 12 were hurt after a
10:10 pm
commuter train hit a jeep near new york city. jean casarez has more on what happened. >> reporter: we are getting more information on this horrific train cash tuesday evening. the train had left grand central station, and they take the metro north commuter train to the outlying areas where they may live. that train left about 5:45 this'vethis evening, and it wasn't long after that that it hit a car that was actually there on the train tracks. we do understand from officials that 650 people were aboard that commuter train this evening. eye witnesses say the car that was on the train tracks was a woman and she was in an suv and she ended up on the train tracks with the crossing guard
10:11 pm
or the pole that ended up on her car. she gets out of her car, surveys the situation. she goes to get back in her car. now she was killed and we also understand that in the first car of the train, you're looking at horrific pictures right now of the fire and the explosion that ensued after that hit. but in that first train car is where we understand six fatalities also occurred. governor andrew cuomo of new york explained what they believe caused that fire and explosion. a third rail from the track actually pierced through the first train car, igniting the entire train. 400 of the people on board we understand self-evacuated went to the back of the train. they were rescued and went to a shelter to finally get home this evening. no word yet on other fatalities.
10:12 pm
we understand the medical examiner is still at the scene. the national transportation safety board is on its way. but what we know is this is a commuter train crashing. for a normal day for several people it ended up to be anything but, with them losing their lives. back to you. >> we'll take a short break here. when we come back as fighting intensifies in eastern ukraine, the united nations makes an ominous prediction about civilians caught up. is computing to empower cancer researchers. it used to take two weeks to sequence and analyze a genome; with the microsoft cloud we can analyze 100 per day. whatever i can do to help compute a cure for cancer,

10:15 pm
she just looks like that. burn the witch! the name your price tool a dangerously progressive idea. welcome back everyone. we want to update you on jordan's response to a stunning new act of brutality by isis. jordan's basically just hanged two al qaeda prisoners. one, this woman you see right here was a would-be suicide woman, sajida al rishawi. isis demanded that jordan set her free. >> isis released a video showing the murder of pilot moath al kasasbeh. the video is too graphic to put to air. it shows the pilot locked in a cage and burned to death. >> let's check reaction now to the pilot's murder and the execution of that would-be suicide bomber in the region. becky anderson joins us live now from abu dhabi.
10:16 pm
becky, will there be a feeling now that u.s. regional allies like jordan, like saudi arabia will end up paying too high a price for supporting the united states? >> reporter: i think you make a very good point here. i think it's fair to say that this was a video likely aimed primarily at the arab population in jordan and indeed these gcc allies who play a crucial part in this u.s.-led coalition. this is another brutal act by isis. this time really striking at the heart of jordanian society. citizens had rallied around moath al kasasbeh's cause. he was the first active member of this u.s.-led coalition fighting against isis to be captured by the militant group. he came from a very important tribe in jordan. it seems by killing him, especially in what is this
10:17 pm
brutal group, isis wants to put pressure on the jordanian government and other governments around here and make it more difficult to remain in this coalition, targeting the group. but remember jordan is a very tribal society. and king abdullah needs the support of those tribes such as the one that the lieutenant came from. a tribe that forms the backbone of the security forces. he needs them to continue this fight against isis. that is absolutely crucial when we look at the nuance of what is going on here. that strategy seems to have backfired on isis seeing their son killed in such a way, will rally more jordanians against the group. but we've also seen voices of discontent against the government there. we've been reporting that the groft has already executed the prisoner isis tried to get free in return for the pilot.
10:18 pm
isis also sending a message, as i say, to other arab countries, and we have had response from the uae, for example. they do seem to have miscalculated. take a look at this message, sheikh abdullah ben zaid. a heinous and obscene act represents a brutal escalation. it is a defining moment. so talk of a turning point of more attacks on isis rather than less. of course you can't understand the logic of terror clearly isis doesn't seem to understand their audience at this point. >> it will be interesting to see how this retaliation by jordan will impact how king abdullah ii is seen in the region. becky, we appreciate it. two french soldiers are recovered after being stabbed.
10:19 pm
it happened on tuesday as they were on patrol in southern france. the suspect, who is right now in custody, is identified as moussa koulbali. the suspect flew to turkey just last week but was turned back. john? >> a prosecutor found dead after accusing the government of a coverup. investigators searched a trash can in his apartment, and found an affidavit he apparently had written. this man was to testify about his allegations of a bombing of a jewish center in 1994 and she did this in return for oil. coming up there's growing concern about homegrown

thing. introducing the all new chrysler 200 america's import. ♪ welcome back everyone. jordan has just hanged two prisoners in retaliation for the isis murder of a jordanian pilot. one of those prisoners was sajida al rishawi, a would-be suicide bomber. isis had wanted jordan to set her free. >> jordan had hoped to trade her
10:23 pm
for moath al kasasbeh but any hope for a deal collapsed when isis released a video showing the pilot being burned alive. police in canada have disrupted a network linked to isis and charged three men with terror related offenses. officials say this man was arrested in ottawa and two other suspects are still being sought. canadian police think they may have left the country to join isis. reports say one of them has been killed while fighting in syria, but no confirmation of that so far. >> the united states has growing concern about homegrown terrorism. the head of the fbi's counterterrorism division says it's impossible to track every american who might travel abroad to fight isis. >> we've seen kids across the globe as young as 13 recruited
10:24 pm
by isil. >> reporter: the head of the fbi's counterterrorism division michael steinbach, says terrorists overseas are using social media to reach into american homes, grab ahold of vulnerable teenagers, and lure them into their group. >> groups like isil have done an effective pr campaign putting out a false narrative, describing what it's like over there, and that's a narrative that's sucked up by kids here in the u.s. and other western countries. >> reporter: over the summer three teenage girls from denver was caught in germany, not far from their goal joining isis in syria. >> what we know is we've been fortunate enough to prevent several intanss of youths attempting to travel. but i can't speak with any certainty minor children have not made it over there. >> what have you found with the
10:25 pm
parents in the cases you've dealt with? >> we've seen parts who encourage, we've seen parents who are oblivious, around parents in a state of denial. >> you've seen parents who encourage this? >> absolutely. there are individuals inspired by the message of terrorist groups and they encourage even their children to follow that path. >> reporter: he admits it's difficult to keep track who is on that path to jihad. do you think there are other americans who we just know have visibility on who could be inspired to become a terrorist? >> absolutely. i think it's unrealistic to believe that we've identified everyone. the travelers, the lone wolves those are all knowns. it's the unknowns that worry me.
10:26 pm
we don't manufacture terrorists. we identify individuals who have stated an intent. they've stated that they want to conduct violent attacks. tay want to travel. they want to support a foreign terrorist organization. >> reporter: how do you know this isn't someone mouthing off? >> we go down an investigative path to ensure it's someone with intentions. >> reporter: how do you balance protecting the american people while also protecting their civil liberties? >> we don't have a desire or a right to step on somebody's freedom of expression their right to express their opinion. but when that opinion turns into violent rhetoric and into action that's different. >> reporter: the threat of terrorism is copnstantly evolving. the key is to try and keep up. >> what the threat looks like
10:27 pm
today is not what it looked like ten years ago. >> do you have a sense of what the face of terrorism might look like down the road? >> i don't want to guess. >> many thanks to our pamela brown for that report. he also says the recruitment of women by isis is i'm quoting here much more than we've ever seen by a terrorist organization. he says in many cases, isis is making up stories about what it's hike in syria to lure women there. but the reality is, of course, much different. the united nations is making an ominous prediction about the fighting in eastern ukraine. the u.n. high commissioner for human rights says any further escalation will be catastrophic for civilians. the u.n. released a new report tuesday putting the number of civilian deaths at more than 220 in the past few weeks, and since the conflict broke out last april between ukrainian forces battling pro-russian rebels more than 5300 people have been
10:28 pm
killed. the u.s. is considering sending military aid to government troops. the u.s. secretary of state is traveling to kiev thursday to meet with the ukrainian president. we'll take a short break here. when we come back the kingdom of jordan hits back at isis for the brutal murder of one of its own. reaction, live analysis and the latest after the break.

10:31 pm
iraqi woman who isis demanded jordan set free. the two were hanged in retaliation for the isis murder of jordanian pilot. >> at least seven people died and a dozen injured when a commuter train hit a jeep near new york city. six killed were on the train. the female driver of the car also died. the collision happened after dates ss ss -- gates came down on the jeep that was stopped on the tracks. at least 12 people are dead after a transasia airways plane crashed in taiwan. 58 people were on board. officials say the plane hit a bridge before crashing into the richer. rescue workers are trying to pull people from the partially submerged wreckage. so far 28 passengers have been rescued. in eastern ukraine, residents of donetsk lined up to receive humanitarian aid. fighting between ukrainian
10:32 pm
forces and pro-russian rebels has intensified there. the u.n. puts the number of civilian deaths at more than 220 in the past few weeks. jordan's king abdullah was in washington, d.c. when he learned of the pilot's death. he met with president obama before cutting short the visit to return home. there he addressed the nation. >> translator: we stand today with the family of the martyr the hero moath, and with our people and our armed forces. in this great tragedy, that is the tragedy of all jordanians and the tragedy of jordan. and in those difficult moments, it is the duty of all the sons and daughters of jordan to stand
10:33 pm
together in one rank and show the true mettle of the jordanian people. >> we're joined by the director of islam affairs of public policy in national affairs a t the american university in beirut. and he lived in jordan for 27 years. you have a unique perspective on everything which has happened over the last 48 hours. do you think isis expected this reaction in the jordanians? >> i think absolutely it did. isis doesn't actually particularly care about any of the reactions it gets from its various targets, whether it's local people -- >> okay. apparently we are having a few problems with the audio connection. we'll try this one more time. i think we have you back rami
10:34 pm
what were you saying about isis and the reaction? >> isis doesn't care about the kinds of reactions it gets from arab or foreign governments. they're on a mission to carry out their barbaric deed and they will continue until they're defeated and that's intefable, but that won't happen until they come together with international military power to work together to defeat isis. but the problem is that the forces that give birth to isis are still there all over the middle east. so this is a huge dilemma for countries, especially like jordan that are close to the west, very dmenependent on the west. the u.s. pledged $1 billion to jordan. so many countries are in this
10:35 pm
dilemma not being able to fight isis by themselves. if they get too close to america, this creates tension among citizens. but this is a threshold that's been crossed in killing moath. the trick is for the government to figure out what is the most appropriate response now. >> everybody seems to be talking about military action here redoubling their efforts. is there something else that can be done? right now it seems those air strikes have been pretty useless. >> they're not useless, but they're very limited in their impact. clearly the air strikes are important in the short run, to stop isis from expanding further. but in the long run, you need a -- >> okay. >> the real dilemma is that the drivers of extremist groups like
10:36 pm
isis are a combination of local autocratic regimes in the middle east and international interventions, like the iraq war, like the drone war and other things that western countries are doing. so the combination of those two things has to be calibrated and nobody has been able to actually do that. there hasn't been any serious attempt to address this, and therefore mass humiliation of citizens across the region which is mostly sunni muslims. many muslims don't support isis but they don't like foreign armies coming to attack arab sunni muslims. so this is a tremendously complicated issue and it will result ultimately in the defeat of isis. there's no doubt that the majority especially in jordan want to fight them and do not
10:37 pm
support it. but there are tensions because many many people instinctively in the arab world are hesitant to join an american-led military assault against arab parties. so the challenge is just renewed now and emphasized more than anything else. >> unfortunately, we don't do complicated very well. rami thank you very much. live for us there in beirut. zain? this is the third execution video from isis in recent weeks. the first member of the u.s.-load coalition to be captured and murdered by isis. the group says it killed two captives from japan. isis claims to have killed five western captives in recent months. a video of the beheading of u.s. journalist james foley was posted online back in august. other videos showed the murders
10:38 pm
of these. one of the rare prisoners released was the french journalist before isis made its between across iraq. he's rarely spoken about his time in captivity. in an interview with christiane amanpour, he said the militants didn't appear interested in religion. instead, he says their talk focused on politics. he described how the hostages were treated in captivity. take a listen. >> all of them had a way of -- >> to put you under their thumbs?
10:39 pm
>> yes. to put you under their thumb. they want you to be under their orders on everything. they don't like when we start to negotiate, ask, demand. they don't like it. especially the beatles. >> the beatles is the name given to the four brits -- >> because we didn't know their names, so we call them the beatles in everything else. there were three of them were -- >> so john paul george ringo? >> no, that was -- that was nicknames. but they were -- they were violent, and of course when you beat someone up you have to be in better shape. >> so you have to get them strong then beat them up again. obviously he first came to
10:40 pm
global prominence with that horrendous video of james foley. do you believe he was the killer? >> yes, i do. >> you do. how did they treat james foley? james foley was with you in the same cell. >> yes. >> how did he get treated? >> well, again, that's what i'm saying. james was an amazing friend. he never gave up. he had a fantastic heart. he was great. he was always trying to get things for the others, asking for some bread or water when that is one of the beatles, john, was asking, do you need something? he didn't expect any of us to say yes, we need something. but james would say yeah, we need vegetables.
10:41 pm
we need edit. of course, he would never be punished. i think they didn't like the fact that he was not broken. and that's the reason why he was getting more beatings, because he was not broken. >> you can hear the entire interview on cnn.com/amanpour. john? the daughter of late singer whitney houston has been moved to another hospital in atlanta. bobbi kristina brown was put into a medically induced coma after she was found unresponsive in a bathtub in her home over the weekend. her family is saying that the 21-year-old is fighting for her life. a lawyer for brown's father says his team is investigating what led up to this hospitalization. sony just released its first earnings report this year since

the manuscript was just rediscovered last year. >> lee completed the book in the '50s but set it aside to write "the mocking bird." that novel was made into a movie back in 1962 starring gregory peck. he won the oscar for his portrayal of the lawyer atikus finch. >> now wait a minute. you get along a lot better with all kinds of folks. you never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view. >> so now "mocking bird" was the first novel. so anna, i think the
10:46 pm
question is how did this cyber attack impact sony's bottom line? a lot of people might think the publicity surrounding "the interview" may have helped the company. >> reporter: look it would appear zain, that certainly it's not affected sony. they've come out a short time ago, released its profit earnings and said that the impact of the cyber attack will not be material. that coming from sony. so it would seem, as i said that cyber attack has not affected their bottom line. their loss has narrowed from 230 billion yen to 170 billion yen. so certainly a pleasant surprise for sony. but that hacking scandal, which you mentioned back in november it did affect the company, certainly the entertainment division. it corrupted the computers, they had to shut down their i.t.
10:47 pm
system. as a result sony said they wouldn't be able to release their fall earnings for the entertainment division by the deadline. they've managed to extend that to the 31st of march. but as far as a company as a whole, it's improving. the stock price up this year and that has a lot to do really with playstation 4, as well as the camera sensors that sony produces. as far as the hacking scandal, u.s. authorities blame squary at the north koreans, it would seem that it has not affected the company's bottom line. >> as you mentioned, the company is going to be delaying part of its earnings until late march because sony has shut down its internet its computer systems internally. but looks like it didn't affect the bottom line too live. anna, we appreciate it. thank you. okay. after some pretty severe weather
10:48 pm
