tv   Anderson Cooper 360  CNN  November 23, 2015 5:00pm-6:01pm PST

5:00 pm
>> david mcmckenzie, thank you very much live from mali tonight. thanks for joining us. set your dvr to record the show. "ac 360" starts tonight with john berman. >> good evening. john berman in for anderson. we have new developments tonight in paris, brussels and late today here at home. something that really hits hard this week when so many people plan to travel. the state department issuing what they call a worldwide caution, warning travelers that isis and others continue to plantpla plan terrorists attacks and sealed off streets when investigators found what appears to be a possible suicide vest in a garbage can. clarissa ward joins me from paris with more on that. clarisa, this vest, what's the latest on what was found? >> reporter: that's right, john. this vest was found in a suburb of paris and according to our
5:01 pm
affiliate bf mtv it contained tatp. that is that very crude explosive that we saw was used in all seven of the suicide bombs that went off in paris ten days ago. it also apparently had metal bolts in it. clearly intended to do a lot of damage, but what is interesting, john, is that according to french media, the cell phone of salah abdeslam, the alleged eighth attacker who has been on the loose since the paris attacks, the cell phone records indicate he was right around this area, right there. the question is was that his and did he dispose of it. >> are they any closer to finding him or any news on the search? >> reporter: really, it's hard
5:02 pm
to believe ten days later there don't seem to be any concrete leads where salah abdeslam might be. there have been 800 raids looking not just for him but for a larger network. we've seen many, many raids taking place in neighboring belgium. you may remember that the last place salah abdeslam was seen was just hours after the attack. he was driving towards the belgium border. we've heard reports of him showing up in the netherlands and germany, though, none of these confirmed and what french security sources are telling cnn is this really seems to be an indication he has had some kind of help, some kind of support, some kind of a network that is helping him to elude capture. >> there is some identification issues still with one of the bombers at the stadium, correct, the french still trying to determine who that person might be? >> reporter: right and today the french police actually took to
5:03 pm
twitter and appealed to the public to try to help to identify this man. take a look at this picture, john. what we know is he is one of three men, three attackers who blew themselves up and he is believed to have traveled with another of the suicide bombers along that very same refugee route going from turkey to greece into france through central europe, also believed to have been traveling on what is likely a fake syrian passport but what is incredible again, what we see in only five of the eight attackers have so far been identified and both of these men who blew themselves up, regardless of french putting out pictures of them trying to identify them, it still appears we are no closer to having any idea who they are, john. >> clarisa, stay with us. i want to bring in drew griffin out of belgium, continues to be at the highest state of alert. drew, this level four terror alert expected to last at least
5:04 pm
through monday? >> reporter: according to the prime minister, that is correct. this serious and imminent threat they keep talking about is going to keep this city on a lockdown until at least monday when they will reassess. the only difference, john, is they are going to finally open the metro on wednesday and the school kids will go back to school also on wednesday. he's talking about another week of this with soldiers parading around the streets here. >> extraordinary level of alert now in one of the great cities of europe. what about the arrest and charges issued today possibly in connection with people involved in the paris attacks? >> reporter: well, you remember last night we were talking about multiple raids taking place. they actually arrested 21 people. they released 17 of them. they have held three and one has been arrested in what we're told is some kind of connection to the paris attack. the officials have been very,
5:05 pm
very mum what the charges are, who the people that are being arrested and they are also saying, john, it's -- the threat is not related to paris or the search for this eighth attacker. it's something else, although they are being mysterious on what that is. >> we asked clarissa this, what are belgium officials saying now? are they operating on the assumption he is in belgium now? >> reporter: they are certainly looking for him and they say he's not among those arrested. they certainly are searching for him. many of the addresses they have also been raiding are connected to him or his brother in someway. but they have not found him. they are working under the assumption he very well could still be in brussels but they have no idea where he is. >> all right. drew griffin in brussels. thank you very much. i want to talk now with clarissa ward, cnn military analyst
5:06 pm
cedr cedric layton and paul cruickshank. what's the latest? >> the thought is that this belongs likely to salah abdeslam because his cell phone was traced. they have been worrying about this missing suicide vest where the other attackers blew themselves up. it appears they found it. there will be a forensic gold mine in the suicide vest because it didn't detonate and they may be able to find thing the about the bomb maker. the bomb maker they think is still at large. >> because bomb makers leave some kind of trace. they have a mark, a signature on these devices. >> that's right. a signature. so they will be carefully looking at that and may sort of lead them perhaps to the bomb maker and may lead them to where the bomb maker found the ingredients in particular
5:07 pm
stores. it's going to be a real gold mine. >> what do you make of the fact this was in some kind of trash can ten days after the attack so close to where salah abdeslam's cell phone was tracked just after? >> well, i think it shows that we'll need to take a look at patterns of life here, john and what that means is we're going to have to look and see what the normal routine is, how often do they collect the garbage in that village, how often do people come by and take a look at these trash cans and how often do people access them? so it would be interesting to note if he lived in that area specifically along the streets or had can tacontacts in the ar. these are things we'll have to look at and police will have to take a hard examination of because they will really help us, i think, find out where he's been during these past few days. >> clarissa, we herd about hundreds of raids over the last ten days, several people
5:08 pm
arrested in france and belgium but so far, no direct contacts, not many direct contacts of the cells themselves. do you think they are reaching the ends of the groups directly involved with the attacks? >> reporter: no, i don't think that. it seems the more they are pulling on the threads, the more they realize the network stretches further than they thought. let's look at the raids in saint-denis for example. abdelhamid abaqoud was killed with his 26-year-old cousin, we thought the female cousin was responsible for detonating the vest, we learned there was a third person in the apartment and that it was he who detonated that explosive vest and yet, we have no idea who he is. now what does that say about how far along investigators are? obviously, there is a sense they
5:09 pm
will not share all the information they are getting in with the media, but there is also a sense, i would say, of real contrcentration as days progress and weeks turn into two weeks and there is very little tangible results in terms of real progress, identifying all of the attackers, identifying the third man who was killed in that apartment who was also wearing an explosive vest and identifying the bomb maker and capturing the eighth attacker, salah abdeslam. >> paul, your sources telling you fears that exist in brussels right now and belgium, this unprecedented level of the terror alert, level four goes way beyond salah abdeslam and way behind the manhunt of this one guy. >> the concern is there is another attack team plotting a paris style attack in brussels. there was specific information that clearly came in on friday for the belgiums to raise this alert level to maximum to keep
5:10 pm
it at maximum. i don't think they would have done that if they knew who was involved, which direction this was coming from and what was being planned. if they knew those things, they would be able to move forward and make arrests. if you look back at the plot they thwarted in january, there was no alert before that. they went in and arrested them and the reason is they had a good handle in it. they had been doing 24/7 surveillance for a number of weeks. in this case, they do not have a good light of where this is coming from. they had no choice but to issue this maximum alert. >> cedric, the worldwide travel caution now going out to u.s. travelers. do you get the sense that here in the united states they are doing that because they have specific information, or do you think they might be doing it because of what they might fear they don't know? >> i think it's the ladder, the fear of what they don't know. our intelligence is good but not good enough to thwart the paris attacks and a great deal of concern within the intelligence
5:11 pm
community and law enforcement community they don't know enough and will be surprised by whatever the next terrorist attack is. they are using this as a precautionary means to make people aware and also make sure that the security forces and the tsa agents and similar people are really engaged actively engaged in looking for people and looking for suspicious behavio behaviors. >> back to the ground in france it striking they put this photo out of the stadium attacker asking for people to come and help. do you know this man? does that say to you about the state of the investigation and do you get the sense that people in france are particularly where there is not a lot of trust in the french government? >> reporter: this is a big part of the problem the french authorities are facing. we interviewed the woman living two floors below abaaoud.
5:12 pm
i said are you telling me you didn't notice him and she said listen, lady, when you live in a neighborhood like this, you don't look at people. you mind your own business. you keep your head down and get on with your life. there is a real sense especially in neighborhoods like that of mistrust between the authorities and locals. a lot of people we entinterview told us they believed he wasn't dead. i do think french people really concerned, john, they are not able to loiter out when they drop their kids off at school now, the kids have to have their bags checked. they have been told not to stand and gather at the entrance of the schools. they are not able to even hold demonstrations. really things that are the fabric of french life. there is a real sense of concern here and pomost people. >> thank you so up many. just ahead, donald trump
5:13 pm
says he watched thousands and thousands of people in the united states cheering as the world trade center fell. this was a horrible, horrible thing. if it were true. so is it? he just spoke out about it again late tonight. we will keep him honest and later, the nypd active shooter drill in the new york subways got a lot of people's attention. how police have been rethinking how to deal with would be mass killers ahead on 360. advil pain relievers are used by more households than any other leading brand. to treat their aches and pains more people reach for advil. relief doesn't get any better than this. advil.

5:17 pm
keeping them honest on what donald trump saw on september 11th and said moments ago. the reason simple, anyone who invokes that horrible moment goes into a deep sprain of hurt and anger and it's not unreasonable for him or her to use that power wisely and truthfully. this is what mr. trump says he witnessed. >> hey, i watched when the world trade center came tumbling down and i watched in jersey city new jersey where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down, thousands of people were cheering so something is
5:18 pm
going on. we got to find out what it is. >> that was saturday at this campaign event in alabama. thousands and thousands of people he says he saw thousands and thousands he says he watched as one of the twin towers collapsed, as you would imagine, it didn't take long for the fact check to begin. it turned up nothing. but yesterday, trumps challenged on this by george and he says he saw it on television, not firsthand. >> it did happen. i saw it on television. >> with your own eyes. >> there were people cheering on the other side of new jersey where you have large arab populations. they were cheering as the world trade center was coming down. i know it might not be politically correct for you to talk about it but there were people cheering as those buildings came down and that tells you something. it was well-covered at the time. i know they don't like to talk about it, but it was well covered at the time. >> keeping them honest.
5:19 pm
there is no evidence what he says happened actually happened, none. "the washington post" fact checker gave it the lowest rate for truthfulness. it was tweeted either real donald trump has memory issues or distorts the truth. mayor fulop is a democrat considering running for office. tweets, not sure which luxury spider hole donald trump was hiding in on september 11th but i saw americans come together that day. today mr. trump tweeted demanding an apology from "the washington post" linked to a post story a week after the attack to make his case. in the 15th paragraph that story does report that law enforcement authorities detained and questioned a number of people who were allegedly seen celebrating attacks and holding tailgate style parties on rooftops while they watched the devastation on the other side of the river. keeping them honest.
5:20 pm
the reporter that wrote it says he doesn't recall anything coming of the arrests and witnesses speaking of large groups of people celebrating and doesn't remember thousands or hundreds of people reacting that way. the police commissioner in patterson new jersey which is home to a large muslim population has also been the focus of conspiracy theories about 9/11 celebrations and blunter. that is totally false. that is patly false he tells the post. that never happened. there were no flags burning, no one was dancing. that is b.s. no celebrations and no video celebrations, not anyone as best we can tell as donald trump says he watched and when until late today ben carson says he also watched and shortly before air time dr. carson says what he really saw was this, palestinians in the middle east celebrating as some people did in some parts of the world, not just here. not thousands or not on camera or anywhere else in this country. moments ago at a rally in ohio,
5:21 pm
mr. trump stood behind claims and referred back to the washington post story. >> one of my people comes in, this is a story from "the washington post" on september 18th, a week later 2001. and holding tailgate-style parties on rooftops while they watched the devastation on the other side of the river. okay? "washington post." "washington post." the post reporter says nothing ever came of the arrest and not thousands and thousands or people or hundreds of people the joining us now, jeffrey lord and van jones. jeffrey is a trump supporter and van a is former senior advisor and republican consultant kate dawson. jeffrey, were there thousands and thousands of people celebrating the fall of the twin towers in jersey city? did it happen? did it happen?
5:22 pm
>> john, you're going to be shocked to hear me say that this is exactly what's wrong with the media. the fact of the matter is that september 18th article says quote clearly that jersey city has been a hot bed for potential terrorist activity. it was the location where a muslim cell planned the 1993 bombing of the world trade center. the fbi swept in there after 9/11, went through ten towns in new jersey, according to this article. so the notion that there's nothing going on here that donald trump made some huge mistake is false. what is accurate maybe the numbers of people are at issue but it's very clear in this article that it was said that there were numbers of people, "the washington post" phrase, the fact checker for "the washington post" got it wrong. the people at power line who discovered this got it right. >> were there thousands and thousands of people that mr. trump saw celebrating the twin towers fall? >> numbers of people with the
5:23 pm
washington post. >> this is so terrible. this is terrible. >> go ahead, van. >> i just want to say this is just terrible. you have a presidential candidate who is deliberately stoking fear and smearing a whole population of people. you have -- >> we're not talking about hillary clinton here, van. >> jeffrey, hang on. let van talk. >> you have a political candidate, your candidate, you come on night after night and defend defe defend. no matter what he says, you defend him. at some point do you have no shame? he said there were thousands of arabs out there and not one picture in a world where you got cell phone cameras, you got video cameras from coast-to-coast, not one picture, not one image. this is -- somebody is going to go hurt some muslim because of this. this is wrong. >> kate, let me bring you in because you're republican and watching the primaries play out.
5:24 pm
do you think donald trump has a case here? >> let me get in between van and jeffrey, which is a real uncomfortable place to be for a good republican from south carolina. what it is, donald trump has been outlandish and outrageous for quite some while. what most people are missing is that base number of 25% that donald carries with him of support doesn't really care what the media says and if you look at the last debate, when chris christie went after the media. no matter how we reported or whether george reports it, the fact that donald trump exaggerates on great issues does start a conversation and i like van and hear jeff. it is a little outrageous to be able to exaggerate as much as the donald does but he starts a conversation that i heard at the gas station tonight when i asked
5:25 pm
somebody very familiar said in new jersey and the answer was, it might not have been new jersey but i remember seeing them in iran burning our flag. >> the difference between iran and new jersey and anywhere in the middle east, new jersey is huge. it's night and day and you say hang on, hang on, i want to get back to katon. do they have a problem with the truth? >> again, as i said, it's the way it filterers down and i think the media thinks everybody takes it the way we report it. donald's numbers are getting softer in south carolina, so are carson's and the voters are starting to pay a fair amount of attention and the tragedies in france and terrorism and foreign policy and i hope will have a serious conversation will be the best leader the best candidate
5:26 pm
against hillary clinton. >> sooner or later republicans will sober up and that will hurt donald trump and ben carson. i think you probably disagree. >> he is trying to raise money to stop donald trump and failed as i understand it lately. i want to say one thing, john, in 2009 after the fort hood shooting right here on this program, drew griffin did an investigative report about the 96th street mosque in new york city where they were saying on camera they are about peace but american born muslims were preaching the gospel of 9/11 and big on osama bin laden and won an islamic caliphate and hated -- >> wait a minute -- [ overlapping speakers ] >> despicable. it's wrong for you to do this. >> they were native americans. this was right here on this show. >> all right -- >> right here on this show. i'm not making this up. >> i know you're not making it up but in fact, i have drew
5:27 pm
griffin here with us now that did that report. i think drew has been with us listening from brussels right now. drew, did that report have anything to do with thousands and thousands of people cheering the day the twin towers went down? >> that's not the point, john. >> john, we did a series -- john, we did a series of reports on a group called revolution muslim under investigation by the fbi. they were, in fact, three very misfit men who were out on the street corner yelling just like any crazies yelling on a new york street corner trying to rise up as people were leaving prayers. he detested them being there, thought their behavior was despicable. i never saw any support, so it
5:28 pm
was a very, very small group. >> one thing that is very important -- >> one thing that is very important. listen, every single time a muslim extremist or a jihadi does something horrible, we ask every muslim ever born from the crib to 97 years old to denounce that activity. at what point can we ask every republican to denounce this would be scapegoating. it is completely different people in other countries doing horrible stuff or three nuts doing something than to say thousands and thousands of people. at what point are republicans going to stand up and say we do not accept this hate in our party? >> jeffrey, i want to give you the last word because there that was report and not thousands and thousands. jeffrey, hang on, jeffrey, hang on. i understand you were trying to infer or interpolate what trump
5:29 pm
was saying but at what point does he need to get the facts right? are facts going to matter if they don't matter now in the primary, will they matter in the general election? >> if facts matter, hillary clinton wouldn't be a candidate for president. she flat out lied what happened in benghazi. >> don't change the top pick -- >> that is not an exaggeration, that say lie. if we hold donald trump to a standard for exaggeration, heavens, a sitting secretary of state, what is she doing now running for president. >> so your answer, jeffrey, is the truth shouldn't matter in the primaries or general. >> i'm saying the truth should always matter but we need to understand what's going on and we need to understand how the media presents these issues and wants to focus on some things and not others. that's what we need to understand. >> jeffrey lord, i have a sense this discussion will continue. thank you-all. >> you bet. >> sure. >> appreciate it. just ahead, anderson reports on what new york and other cities are doing to prepare for
5:30 pm
an attack like one in paris. multiple shooters striking multiple targets. the united states, is it ready and what keeps law enforcement here up at night worrying.

breaking news, the state department issuing a statement about worldwide travel and in new york over the weekend, a training drill planned before the attacks in paris and mali took on new urgency. local and federal law enforcement was involved in the active shooter simulation under ground on a subway platform. the drill was reportedly tweaked at the last minute to include elements of the paris attacks. the coordinated strikes in paris carried out by terrorists at multiple locations and attacks in mali are deadly examples of what american law enforcement calls active shooter cases, situations where gunman are intent on killing and often still shooting when the police arrive on the scene. in a report for "60 minutes" anderson took a closer look what
5:35 pm
cities are doing to prepare. >> what happened here a week ago friday is law enforcement's worst night mare, multiple shooters attacking multiple locations. crippling a city. there was only one active shooter attack in the united states in 2000 but by 2015, there were more than one a month. they usually involve just one gunman but american law enforcement has been expecting a paris-style attack in the u.s. for years. >> in american policing, we have no answer for why we don't have more events and not more that are very specifically put on by terrorists related activist. >> new york police commissioner says the nypd has been preparing for that kind of attack since the 2008 terror attack in india that killed 173 people and shut down a city of more than 18 million for three days. what did you learn from mumbai. >> the idea of the multiple
5:36 pm
shooters, consciously going in a lot of different directions. >> multiple shooters, multipull locations. >> we learned these people will take hostages for the purpose of media attention and kill them. they are not interested in negotiating to surrounder. they are negotiating to extend the span of time that you and the media will cover what they are doing. so that's a very significant change where we normally try to rescue the hostages is through negotiation. >> after mumbai, you fully anticipated we'll see that here in the united states. >> that's correct. >> and still believe that? >> still believe it. >> the new york police department is so concerned about a paris and mumbai-type attack, they are retraining all 35,000 police officers in the city. >> weapon is now loaded, finger off the trigger. >> they allowed us to watch some of what they are doing. >> the detective is the lead trainer with the nypd count terrorism division and says it's
5:37 pm
critical police move in quickly to stop an active shooter. >> the big piece i tell people is time is an issue. the shooter wants more time inside because that's more victims. we need to cut his time in half if not minimize it completely by getting there quickly. that's a complete shift for law enforcement. >> getting in there quickly means overcoming chaotic situations. >> you got a shot. we'll go in that direction. >> in this drill, a team of four officers has to stop an active shoot near a classroom full of students, some of whom are already wounded. >> moving. >> responding officers are told to focus on finding the gunman before they try to treat any casualties. it's also got to be tough because you have hysterical people screaming help this person. >> you go into a school shooting and see children.
5:38 pm
this is something anybody wants to bend over and do whatever they can to stop that but we need to stop the killing further. >> in another training scenario, we watched the police respond to a simulated attack by two terrorists with rifles. loosely based on what happened in mumbai. they immediately engage in a gun battle with the first shooter who surrounded himself with civilians. >> the issue becomes you have a crowded hallway. this is how they have to deal with it. >> you have clothing on the floor. >> on the floor there is a bag. at the very least we should think ied, explosive device. >> for the first officers on the scene, information is limited and often contradictory. with every second that passes, more people could be dying. >> the adrenaline is pumping so much it changes the way you think and it changes your judgment. >> it's a survival instinct. there is a man with a gun in that room trying to kill people and the idea of stress science is fascinating with our world
5:39 pm
because your vision goes down to 17% under stress. if i said long guns. if i said tactical gear and i said terrorism, what's the one thing you should also be thinking about. >> ied. >> ieds. bombs. >> afterwards the detectives reviews the exercises and asks them about the bag left in the hallway. >> i didn't notice the bag. >> if you had noted that was an ied in that bag, would you still keep going for the shooter? >> unfortunately, yeah. if we had to stop for every bag we found, we would have a problem because we would never get to that guy. >> a number of american cities have been retraining. washington d.c. police chief kathy lanier says their preparations have taken new urgency. >> people say what is it that keeps you awake at night? not the things we train for and know about. it's the one thing we haven't thought about. what is it we're missing. >> what are they missing? chief lanier tells anderson what
5:40 pm
scares her more than the isis terrorists that attack paris.
5:41 pm
5:42 pm
5:43 pm
5:44 pm
with belgium on the highest state of alert a suicide vest found and the threat to travelers from isis, it's a very different world from the one before november 13th. the paris attacks were law enforcement's worst nightmare. multiple shooters stretching the resources of police and crippling a city. a nightmare that u.s. law enforcement officials fully expect to see one day on u.s. soil. they have been preparing learning valuable lessons from terror attacks across the globe and here at home. the columbine massachusetre was game changer. here is part two of anderson's report. >> people say what is it that keeps you awake at night? not the things we train for and know about. it's the one thing we haven't yet thought about. what are we missing? >> we've seen a number of people who are just motivate that say they support isis but may have no actual direct connection with a group like isis but just
5:45 pm
watched videos and decided to -- >> even scarier. less trip wires. less opportunity for us to intercept. i don't think you're going to stop the shootings. i think that a person whose committed to carrying out an act of violence like this is going to carry that act out. how successful they are and how many people they kill we can try to intervene on. >> police department started to take a serious look at how they respond to active shooters after the attacks at columbine high school in 1999. columbine was a turning point in reassessing strategy in active shooter situation. >> yes, huge. so we based a lot of training for active shooter response at the local law enforcement level and based a lot of training on columbin columbine. >> teachers roamed the school killing students and a teacher while law enforce the set up a perimeter and waited for 45 minutes before going in.
5:46 pm
>> and i very distinctly remember a parent being interviewed said what were they waiting for? they have guns. none of our kids had guns. >> in the rect paris attack here at the bataclan concert hall, police waited 35 minutes outside for the tactical team to prepare. a u.s. law enforcement source says that's a familiar old american model. columbine taught police they have to get inside fast. >> this is a homicide in progress. you can't wait for backup and the swat team. you are the only thing that can stop that shooting. you have to get in there and do it. >> that's what washington d.c. police did in 2013 at the navy yard when a mentally ill employee began shooting his co-workers. >> we have an active shooter. a male with a shotgun, multiple shots fired. multiple people down. >> our first call to 911 came in 1:36 after the first shots fired. we already had multiple people
5:47 pm
that were shot at that point. >> chief lanier learned a number of lessons from the police response at the navy yard shootings. some rifles police had were too big for the narrow corridors the shooters moving through and the sound of fire alarms made it difficult to determine where shots were being fired from. >> the flashes you see are fire alarms. the fire alarm is pulled and going off and loud and gunshots being fired and they are trying to narrow where the gunman is. >> it took police an hour and nine minutes to kill the shooter. >> the first ten were killed how quickly? >> six minutes. >> that fast. >> that fast. >> according to the fbi, 60% of active shooter attacks are over before police ever arrive. so now, law enforcement agencies throughout the country are trying to educate the public on how to survive on their own. >> your options are run, hide or fight. >> that's what you tell people to do. >> what we tell them are the facts of matter is most active
