3:01 pm
with "consumer reports." >> i want one. we have to begin with a fox news alert because investigators are focusing now on foul play behind the missing malaysia airline flight 370. malaysia's prime minister is saying this was no accident, calling it, in fact, a deliberate act. he's also saying someone purposefully disabled the plane's communication and that the boeing 777 continued flying for more than six hours after losing contact with the ground. now, that has led to a massive search effort which is now focusing on two possible flight paths. looking as far north as kazakhstan and south into the indian ocean. molly henneberg has the very latest for us live in washington. this hour, what's new? >> reporter: according to malaysian authorities, the plane's last contact with air traffic control was at 1:22 a.m nearly seven hours after that,
3:02 pm
at 8:11 a.m., the plane sent a final ping to a satellite. but the rest of the plane's communication systems were shut off from the inside and some aviation experts say not everyone would know how to do that. >> it would have to be either the crew or a highly skilled pilot and also a pilot such as myself with a military ability and knowledge to know exactly what you're talking about. how to evade radars. how to fly under them. >> there are reports that at one point, the plane apparently flew as high as 45,000 feet. one pilot says that may give us some clues about what was happening inside the plane. >> i'm afraid, though, that when they took the airplane to 45,000 feet, i think that what may have been the idea was that the hijackers were going to depressurize the passengers and decapacity the passengers on the plane. >> others say the fluctuations in altitude could be the result of a struggle in the cockpit.
3:03 pm
a struggle for control of the plane. jamie? >> wow. such a horrific possibility even tho think about. thank you so much. great reporting today. investigators are taking a very close look at the flight crew, especially the pilot. police searching both of their homes, looking for clues that might clear up the mystery of what happened to flight 370. dominic dinatale live with that part of the story. >> reporter: hey there. the police turning up on their door steps. at the captain's home, police walked away with two bags in their hand. no one entire leisure what that contained. actually malaysia's prime minister saying if there wasn't a mechanical fault that we can detect, then certainly we need to look at the crew. this is how he explained that. take a listen. >> this latest development, the
3:04 pm
malaysian authorities have refocused their investigation into the crew and passengers on board. >> reporter: the first they're looking at is the captain. he's 53 years old. he's a father of three children. he lives in a gated compound outside the capital, kuala lumpur, that's where the police went to to see if they could find anything in his home. he's an aviation buff. that's how they describe him. he managed to build his own flight simulator at home. he made a youtube video of it and posted it. that is the kind of thing he likes to do. people in the airlines industry saying, well, he looks like a typical pilot kind of guy. he's just into the aviation side of things, seems pretty stable for his age and has an awful lot of experience. however, its first officer, well, there are things on the internet with two young blond teen-agers which raise a question about his sense of judgment because those young
3:05 pm
teen-agers were in the cabin with him while he was on board a flight in 2011 from thailand to kuala lumpur. that's embarrassing to him and embarrassing for the airline because that obviously is outside protocol taking that sort of thing. so the airline looking into that. now, we understand that hamid is a muslim and there is a vast population of muslims in malaysia and his friends and neighbors say he's a good muslim and that he regularly goes to the mosque on a friday and prays. so we have two people here, very different ages, slightly different ways to approach life and the authorities are trying to dig in to find out more about them. back to you. >> thanks very much. this missing malaysian plane you may know is a boeing 777. that means it's state of the art. it's got fully digital controls, which is known in the pilot community as fly by wire. earlier today i spoke with fox
3:06 pm
news military analyst and aviator captain chuck nash who says it would be very difficult for pilots to do anything if someone else was trying to take over whether they were in the cockpit or very row motley -- remotely done. listen. >> just about everything, different taliban flight controls and fly by wire controls. so you no longer have, for example, mechanical linkages running back to the rudders and the elevators like did you in the old days because the control forces would just be too great. these are very large flight control surfaces. >> what he was saying also is that if everything is digital and someone were to remotely access those controls, there is no analog way that the pilot could override it. they don't know if that's what happened. we just had a chance to talk to him about interesting stuff. we'll have more this hour, including a live report from the search region and also an interview with an international security expert. everybody asking questions on what more could have been done.
3:07 pm
gregg? >> we had a lot of activity at the u.n. today. we want to tell you about a u.n. security council resolution that contends russia's latest action in ukraine. it died on the floor. russia vetoing the draft which called tomorrow's referendum on crimea's future illegal. but moscow came under heated criticism. the southern region are still getting ready for that vote which is expected to favor russia. with the very latest, eric shaun still at the u.n. monitoring this all day. it was very interesting the way things have played out. tell us more. >> reporter: really very much so. we haven't heard some of the language and echos since the arguments during the cold war here at the united nations in the security council. as you said, jamie, there was that vote earlier today. despite that vote, it appeared putin is not backing down and not paying attention to the western opinion of what he has been doing by defying the world.
3:08 pm
that referendum still set for tomorrow as expected. then the security council, russia as expected, vetoed that resolution. it said the vote tomorrow is illegal, a violation of international law. the vote was 13-0 and 1, china abstained. other diplomats criticize the moscow has move. ukrainian ambassador surprised many when he said russian forces have gone beyond crimea. it's an example of russian aggression. >> we have a lot of russian troops in crimea, but now some of them, they move to the mainland, so we have both occupied crimea and now they started to move into the mainland. this is something which changes the situation dramatically. >> reporter: the russian ambassador who rejected the u.s. and west's arguments.
3:09 pm
turns out that moscow does not recognize the government in kiev >> regarding crimea, this case arose as a result of a legal vacuum arising from a unconstitutional coup carried out in kiev by national radicals in february of 2014, as well as from the direct threat from these said individuals in stating their order across all ukraine. >> but for others, this is a reminder of the days of the soviet union, the 1956 invasion of hungary, the 1968 invasion of czechoslovakia. the lithuanian ambassador, who represent has country that was the soviet satellite, says she fears the ukraine is about to be, quote, shot dead. it is turning to the gravest east-west crisis since the cold war. jamie, back to you. >> to say the least. much more coverage on that referendum in the next 24 hours. thank you very much. eric shaun live.
3:10 pm
the united states planning to give up remaining control over the internet. the management of domain names and other important technical aspects. international critics have been pushing for the move by the obama administration, but this plan is alarming some u.s. business leaders and others who rely on the web's smooth functioning, not to mention all its freedoms. elizabeth prann in washington with more. >> reporter: hi, gregg. the u.s. is giving up its leading role in managing certain aspects of the internet. the commerce department has been overseeing the internet corporation for assigned names and numbers for almost a decade. they maintain the ministers' domain names and i.p. addresses and other web requirements across the world. that, however, is scheduled to expire next year. it appears the u.s. will give up its oversight role and let the contract run out. the job will be taken on by a group that includes private businesses and other interested parties, not just multiple
3:11 pm
governments. recently, however, critics have been raising concerns that other countries may try to take control. >> i think that's kind of what i'm seeing where the internet. it's almost as if rather than admit that we made stupid and some unconstitutional mistakes in invasion of privacy, let's clean up our act, but let's not give away the whole process. >> reporter: some democratic lawmakers, such as jay rockefeller, are praising the decision, release attentioning a statement, since 1998, the u.s. has been committed to transitioning management of the internet domain system to an independent entity that reflects the broad diversity of the global internet community. ntia's announcement today that it's beginning the process. the decision is historic, internet users should not notice any changes. gregg? >> elizabeth prann, thanks. a bit later this hour action we're go to bring in our political panel on the impact of the plan. >> that will be interesting. but first, don't shoot the

messenger. major flooding in western illinois caused by ice jams on the river as temperatures rise, flooding happens every year in that area. but it's coming much sooner than usual this year. falling temperatures and a powerful storm in texas and louisiana expected to bring more snow to the midwest and east coast. thanks a lot, janis dean live in the fox extreme weather center. come on, enough is enough. didn't we spring forward? >> i know. spring officially arrived this week. but we got to let mother nature know that because i mean, we could see several inches of snow on washington, d.c. come monday morning. let's take a look at the severe threat today because we do have spring-like temperatures across the southern plains. the threat for severe storms, strong to severe weather from texas up into oklahoma. severe thunderstorm watch in effect until 10:00 p.m. local time. a couple of severe thunderstorm warnings with perhaps hail and damaging winds. severe threat continues for parts of eastern texas through louisiana, mississippi, and arkansas, through the evening and then shifts eastward.
3:13 pm
look at the temperature difference here. we've got quite a cold front. 29 in sioux falls. 30 in minneapolis. watch what happens in the next 12 to 24 hours. there is kansas city at 72 today. dropping to 37 in the next 12 hours with snow in the forecast. let's take a look at it. there is the forecast satellite radar. you can see the snow and then that mixture of rain and/or sleet and/or freezing rain. that's going to all press eastward. there is dc, philadelphia. you could see few snow flurries then see the icy mix on the border between north carolina and virginia. and there is monday morning. still kind of in the dc area. you could see several inches of snow for your st. patrick's day. incredible. so let's take a look at the snowfall precipitation through tuesday. some areas could see upwards of six inches, especially in the mountsens. there is going to be a harsh cutoff. we will have to watch this carefully. around the dc area and south of it is where we're going to see the snow.
3:14 pm
i was joking with gregg earlier that maybe we can paints the snow green or something. >> your map was green. but i guess it wasn't beer. now you took it away. >> you didn't drink it. >> no, no. not on the job. but i'm off the job now. bye-bye. >> thanks. >> she's heading to the nearest bar, which is just across the street. it's an irish bar right there. all right. the future of the war in afghanistan remains in doubt. afghan president karzai now making a major speech saying that american troops are no longer needed. and a controversial plan by the obama administration to turn over america's remaining control of the internet to the global stage. our political panel is here to weigh in on that [ female announcer ] grow, it's what we do.

3:20 pm
tammy bruce and fox news contributor, and basil is joining us, president of basiltl consultant. welcome. >> thank you. >> tammy, is there anything to this? >> look, all the news is reporting that this is because of the nsa spying situation. nothing could be further from the truth. it makes no sense at all. at least we have the constitution in the rule of law to deal with any dynamic like that, which is probably unconstitutional and possibly illegal. what would the excuse be to move it into the international arena where people wouldn't even have the u.s. constitution or the american rule of law to guide the nature of what occurs? here is the problem, this will go to the u.n. it's not unknown what will happen here. and with what we've just what happened today with russia and crimea, known to be corrupt, the dynamic of spying will increase. they will also open the door to taxing americans in particular. the u.n. has been salivating for this for years, trying to get
3:21 pm
its hands on the internet. if people are worried about security, about cost, about safety, this is the last thing we should be doing. >> so before i go to basil, are you saying that in a quest for less control by the government in the end, americans will get more? particularly taxing? >> well, what they're going to get -- there is no reason for america to let go of the internet. it's our product. it's our creation. the government should be dealing with what's best for the american people. to hand something over that is ours to the international scene which is not known for its privacy laws or for security or efficiency or good intentions, imagine, russia and china having a say over who can be on the internet, what can be said. people are being arrested in england right now. >> let me get to basil. i did raise the point earlier that when we talk about cyber invasion, often russia and china do come up. are you concerned about turning
3:22 pm
over the reins of the ability to make decisions this important on the internet? >> i think my first -- my immediate reaction is of some concern. i think tammy is right, this is something that we created and we've had for quite some time now. we've been trying to get rid of that control for the last ten years. i think the immediate reaction is yes, there are some concerns here, but we should also keep in mind that there has already been a vulcanization, differentiation with how countries use the internet and how they sensor those in their countries according to their own laws. >> we've seen that. >> a lot of what i think tammy and others are concerned about, actually has already been happening. >> tammy, i put out on my social media pages asking people to weigh in. here is just two of the ones that i got. they pretty much were all on the same lines. one says, it's another in a long
3:23 pm
line of decisions that shows poor judgment. ask george says, a travis see and a blow as well. are you concerned about the loss of rights to be able to post things that you want if it is controlled by another country? or countries? >> absolutely. this this is a no brainer. >> why is it happening? >> that's a really good question. i think the obama administration has done a few things that beg that question. why is this happening? this is not a good idea. it's also not finished yet. this is not something that has to a. the american people need to speak up. it transcends liberal conservative lines. every american should be up in arms about the nature of this plan. it should not occur. it will harm everyone because the internet does benefit the world. taking it out of our hands means everyone will lose. >> it caught our attention for sure. i only have 15 seconds. how do you think this plays out?
3:24 pm
>> i think we need to have that conversation. not just about the international community, but here at home on this issue of neutrality, for example, because there are corporations that are saying that they want to have the ability to control internet traffic as well. so this isn't just an international conversation. this is a domestic conversation and the obama administration has been forthright in saying they want to provide equal access to everybody. so i think they've been right on that issue. >> all right. thank you so much. tammy and basil. great to have you. >> thank you. >> gregg? passenger jet vanishing and now malaysia's prime minister says this was not an accident. but what happened on board flight 370? some catastrophic event or something that may be unfolding. team usa is not finished winning the gold. we'll have the latest nail biter from the parlynpics in russia

3:29 pm
fox news alert. one of the most puzzling mysteries in modern aviation, the disappearance of malaysia flight 370 more than 200 people on board. malaysia's prime minister calling this a deliberate act and with so much fuel in the plane's tank, the search area expanding, covering an area six times the size of the united states. ships from 14 countries searching for any sign of the boeing 777, missing for a week now. so investigators are facing a baffling mystery. how an advanced, sophisticated airplane can simply vanish without a trace. let's bring in jim walsh, international security expert at m.i.t. security studies program. good to see you. somebody on board not only deliberately changed the course dramatically, but also intentionally dismantzled two communication systems. hours later, the satellite system stops. to shut that off, somebody would have to climb into the
3:30 pm
electronic bay located on the lower deck. what, if anything, does this tell you? >> that it's human intervention. not a mechanical failure. at least that's what it would point to. there's a question of whether that requires more than one person. would it require a team of people? it says that whoever is involved, be it passengers or crew had to have some knowledge of aviation, would have to have the special screwdriver to get down and shut off the tran responder. we're talking about someone who has had some training and who knows airplanes. >> all right. wouldn't that be, for example, either the pilot or the copilot? would you looking at them very closely? >> oh, yeah. first of all, i think they're looking at everyone. you would start with the pilot and the copilot. we have in aviation history, a situation which pilots have acted on their own for different reasons and clearly they already have the experience, so that would be where you would start. but then you would also want to comb throughout profiles of the passengers.
3:31 pm
you'd be looking at their e-mails, family communications, their ties to criminal entities, had they taken flight testing before or gone to training for flying airplanes? so you'd be looking at a variety of data. do they show up on terrorism watch list as soon as was there chatter before? >> are jihaddists and equaled members or wanna bees still, in your judgment, obsessed with using yet again an aircraft as a missile or weapon? >> yeah. i think that certainly continues to be on the list, in part because of the big impact 9-11 had and there are other uses of airplanes. but it's really curious. the more we learn, the more puzzles we have. we don't seem to be actually getting closer. the reason why i say that is if you're a terrorist and you've got the plane, why not use it then? if you're going to use it for a secondary purpose, then that seems to be too clever by half. it's possible, but it doesn't
3:32 pm
fit the standard m.o. it seems if you had control of it, you've got a loaded missile with lots of fuel on it, that's what all the indicators are telling us, this thing was packed with fuel, there is your bomb right there. the fact that there hasn't been a claim of responsibility. officials are whispering saying they doesn't fit a terrorism profile. it's unusual for the region -- >> unless the target was beyond the jet fuel capacity of the plane and you want to refuel it, get it to a different destination. that would require a lot of planning. but as we know, al-qaeda is pretty good at that. earlier on our air today, an expert said the sudden precipitous change in attitude suggests there may have been a struggle inside the aircraft before it regained altitude. not a bad theory? >> i think it's certainly one you have to have on the table. as there is with every piece of this, there are other mitigating circumstances. one, the data on that elevation
3:33 pm
is not as robust and reliable as we would want. secondly, if you had sort of a newcomer who took control of the cockpit, it might take them time to sort of settle in and get used to flying a plane. so yes, one of the possibilities is what you outlined or what he outlines. but unfortunately, there are other possibilities, too, that are equally compelling. >> yeah. the satellite pings point to two different quarters. i should say the last ping. the north, as far as kazakhstan. to the south stretching from indonesia to the southern indian ocean. but the northern route would have crossed several countries, including china, india. both of those have air defense systems that would have detected the plane. so maybe it's the southern quarter? >> i agree with you. you think that would have been picked up. and by the way, india and china, who are in a rivalry, by the way, have air forces and technical capabilities. so you would expect that and certainly india faces pakistan as an enemy.
3:34 pm
so they have an air force. but here is the other curiousity. if it's taking that southerly route that has been described as the alternative, where does that go? that's a big patch of ocean where there are not a lot of landing options. it increases the probability that the thing would have gone into the sea. so we want to know what happened on the plane. we want to know what happened to the plane. separate question. then try to figure out why. right now we're having trouble with all three. >> yeah. for a while, they were looking at that collection, the archipelago of islands. i think there are 572. only 37 habitable. but it looks as though now the latest information is the plane would have literally, if they used a southern quarter, flown well over those particular islands. so the question is, if you're looking at indonesia or south of there, where? >> yeah. and i think that's the million dollars question. of course, obviously these
3:35 pm
states part of a possible route are no doubt scouring -- indonesia has a big military. they're no doubt scouring their territory as well. but it's so big. we sort of lose a sense of how large the ocean is, how large that part of the world is. with the search expanding rather than contracting, with limited resources to devote to it, it is finding a needle in a hay stack. >> six times the size of the united states is the search area as our map showed. great to talk with you. thanks so much. >> thank you. >> really makes you wond for it did fly over other countries, whether their defense systems didn't pick it up, how good they are. >> right. >> fascinating point you raised. let's find out what's going on in the region from mike cohen, who is joining us on skype from the philippines. mike, what are the theories that are being discussed there today? what's the very latest and do you feel like the authorities are giving us everything they know?
3:36 pm
>> here in the philippines, i was able to go into the western command earlier yesterday and they basically let you see the map. they're very, very open about how they're helping and the united states as well. as you know, u.s. forces do rotate out of here. this is where some of the ships came from. u.s.'s blue ridge is pull not guilty tomorrow. so a lot of the assistance is coming from here. for the search that's taking place in the south china sea. now it shifted, you're gog see more indian ocean access from the fifth fleet taking part. >> when you looked at the map with those who involved in the search in the region, how desolate is the area that they are looking at or, as gregg and i were discussing and he discussed with our guest, jim walsh, were there not other countries that would have all of a sudden known that a plane had invaded their air space? >> most of these areas do have area identification systems per country. vietnam has one.
3:37 pm
cambodia has one. thailand has one. the philippines has one. they coordinate with each other. there is hundreds of flights every day across this area. it's well traveled. so they would have been able to detect if a civilian or military. as you were mentioning, if the plane took the normally route, you have a number of countries that are very, very interested and very quiet, including burma, which as we know, is part of the golden triangle. authorities here say, and both philippine officials and american officials, very privately discussed -- someone possibly wanted someone or something on the aircraft and that is a situation as it goes on from here. >> that's interesting. that was a theory raised earlier by captain chuck nash with me that the would be, potentially someone on the plane or some cargo that they would have wanted to divert as opposed to trying to repurpose the plane itself at some other location. does it seem like they have the
3:38 pm
resources there to proceed with the search of that magnitude, one that is an area six times the size of the united states? are they understaffed? >> on their own, i doubt it. any one of these countries can do it on their own of the even ut satellite photos that turned out to be somewhat defective. so without the help of the united states, and the western alliances here, when they work together, they're very capable. but if they work on their own, they're not going to be able to get it. >> mike, very interesting to talk to you. please be back in touch with us with anything new. we do appreciate it. gregg? >> another win from team usa in sochi. the u.s. men's paraolympics hockey team defeating russia 1-0. bringing home gold. former marine josh sweeney scored the winning goal in the second period.
3:39 pm
congratulations. >> amazing. in a near capacity arena full of russian fans, it is the third gold medal for team usa at this winter olympics. the men's olympic hockey team failed to medal in russia. the women's brought home the silver that. is so great for them. >> those athletes are incredible to watch. so happy for them. meanwhile, a democratic senator who defended nsa surveillance measures is now accusing the c.i.a. of illegally spying on congress. the war of words is heating up. are diane feinstein's complaints valid? >> i have grave concerns that the c.i.a.'s search may well have violated the separation of powers principled embodied in the united states constitution. w
3:43 pm
top tract accusing the c.i.a. of spying on senators' computers. senator diane feinstein says the c.i.a. was trying to intimidate committee members and staff to block the release of a report on the c.i.a.'s secret prison. former c.i.a. director disputing her allegations. feinstein has been a vocal defender of the nsa surveillance program. joining us now, susan estridge, professor of law and political science at usc, a fox news contributor who writes about
3:44 pm
this controversy in her current column this week. it was a terrific column. good to see you. >> good to see you. >> i must say, diane feinstein has always been and known for this, to be calm and cautious and even tempered voice in a profession that often is not. so it appears to be unusual for her to be as angry and as outspoken as she is this week. does that tell you she's got some pretty strong evidence? >> oh, i think this is a really tough thing for diane feinstein. you and i have sat here on countless saturdays when there have been revelations about snowden and the like, asking ourselves the question. but did this program help save lives? and there was diane feinstein week after week, out there carrying the water, saying -- defending the surveillance program, even though she had a lot of critics in northern california on that stance. and so for her to have to come
3:45 pm
out there and stand on the senate floor after having defended the intelligence community for so many years and say publicly accuse them of sneaking into the computers of senate intelligence committee staff increase you're a lawyer, i'm a lawyer. that's just wrong. separation of powers. >> absolutely. >> nsa director michael hayden said, to call this spying is a reach. doesn't that sound like a yes? yes, we surveilled, but let's not call it spying. that's such a nasty, unpleasant word. >> right. and you know, the joke is, of course, the reason it's a, quote, reach, is because in order to protect the security of the documents they were looking at and at the same time conduct oversight, which is what do you with checks and balances, they were located in a secure facility in a c.i.a. reading room.
3:46 pm
so now the c.i.a. is saying, we didn't really spy on you because you were in our living room. but you were there out of respect for the need for security. any way you look at it, it's constitutionally, the c.i.a. was really pushing the limits. >> if the c.i.a. surveilled the committee computers, you point out in your column and just moments ago that it would violate the constitution's separation of powers. but, susan, would it constitute a crime of some sort? >> you know, gregg, i don't know. i'm not even sure that at the end of the day that would help because the fact if we may be able to find somebody and find a statute, maybe we could find the computer fraud act and that's why he's saying it wasn't really spying. there is some statutes, you give me a little time, i'll get you some wire fraud. didn't we all learn this first year? but at the end of the day, the
