concerns, the u.s. warning last week that terrorists could be planning to attack or kidnap americans working for oil companies in saudi arabia amid spiraling violence in the region. the clock is winding down to try to reach a nuclear deal with iran. that deadline just now nine days away. secretary of state carry saying substantial progress has been made but there are still important gaps, the questions whether iran will allow intrusive inspections by weapons inspectors as well as the number of centrifuging they will allowed to have to enrich uranium. meanwhile, there are warnings of tremendous costs if no nuclear deal is reached. doug has more details. >> reporter: only a day after president obama spoke to the iranian people that nuclear talks are an historic opportunity for them to a better future the iranian supreme leader told a tehran crowd that
1:06 pm
his government would not capitulate to america's demands and the crowd shouted out death to america. his remarks are a stark sign yet that a wide gap may still exist. on fox news sunday today cia director john vernon tried to assure the american people that the administration's bottom line is no nuclear weapons for iran. >> there are a number of things that the united states has available to it to prevent iran from getting a bomb. president obama has made it very clear that we are going to prevent iran from having that type of nuclear weapon that they maybe were going on the track to obtain. so if they decide to go down that route, they now that they will do is he at their peril. >> i think the director is kidding himself if he thinks we really have the capabilities we need. there simply is no authority that the iaea currently has or there is any indication this view will give them to do
1:07 pm
anywhere any time inspections. >> the p5+1 negotiators are catching flak to key members of congress who want a say in whatever deal is inked. >> if they try to go to the u.n. security council and bypass us and leave us as the last guys standing there will be a violent reaction against the funding. 22% of the funding comes from the american taxpayer and i'm in charge of that account. >> we keep moving from the p5+1 towards iran's position. there is a concern that the administration cares more about making a deal versus the right deal. i think you know that one of the things that brought iran to the table were the congressionally mandated sanctions. >> secretary kerry is determined to stick to that ends of march deadline for a framework. he said in london the decisions don't get any easier as time goes by. reports that the supreme leader did repeat in kind death
1:08 pm

1:11 pm
with that machete. if he had made contact with anybody, it would have been horrible. i'm proud to say our job as tsa is to protect the passengers. >> reporter: you can see video here from a person there when it happened. there is a agent being taken away on a stretcher. she was only shot in the arm. one of those rounds that came from a sheriff's deputy who shot the suspect three times who eventually died. as i mentioned they are looking at mental illness as being a significant part of this. makes say richard white the 63-year-old suspect in this attack who died last night are saying he had been acting erratically for some time and went around and knocked on their doors and tried to get them involved with things he was involved in. the good news is that the react of the tsa agent, the passengers, and most importantly the sheriff's deputy who shot and killed the suspect before
1:12 pm

1:13 pm
midwest and the great lakes. look at the snow blossoming over the dakotaas and wisconsin and iowa. and chicago you could get several inches of snow on your drive in tomorrow. three to six inches. so definitely keep the shovels close by. then we'll watch this next system move into the northwest bringing snow for the mountainous regions. it's going to be cold enough for more snow this week. look at your seven-day precipitation for the northern rockies, upper midwest, great likes lakes, even interior northwestern new england needs to watch out for more snow. i know it's spring on the calendar but we are not getting there. 30s, 25 in new york, and a biting wind chill. just look ahead to monday and tuesday. so we get a little bit of a retreat. friday to saturday, another dive of cold air as far south as the mississippi river valley and the mid atlantic region. sfa as far south as perhaps even the southeast on sunday. so, again, eric, very good advice, we are not into

1:21 pm
honored going forward or if there is going to be some sort of long-term fix to these issues. i think on one area there is this issue of doctor's payments under medicare which are due to scheduled to be cut. and there is a plan out there that's trying to have a permanent fix to that as opposed to just continuously sort of extending it. and the problem is that a lot of conservatives are uncomfortable with the fact that it costs a lot of money. and there is also a prodder budget battle brewing, which is over the defense cuts which are scheduled to go into effect as part of the sequestration and prior budget agreement. but republicans who are more hawkish on defense are worried that it's really going to erode u.s. national security at a time with increases tensions
1:22 pm
worldwide. >> that's unbelievable if the defense actually gets cut. what about 70 republicans or so are adamantly against that saying they are not going to go along with this if the sbujt cut as opposed to being raised. >> yes, this dates back to the fiscal cliff -- sorry -- the debt limit deal back in 2011. if you remember that, there was a standoff if a point because republicans wanted budget cuts, and democrats were demanding tax increases. the concession that republicans ended up settling on to avoiding tax increases was to agree to defense budget cuts. and so at the time when more of the concern was on fiscal issues and less on defense there was more consensus on that. we're right now with isis on the rise and worldwide tensions growing, there is an increased interest in national security a. lot of the more hawkish members
1:23 pm
of the caucus when it comes to defense are pushing back. >> philip you talk about the debt. let's look at the debt clock. it keeps on going up and up and up. look at this. it's gone up past $18 trillion. look how fast that thing goes. unbelievable. leaving us, according to the debt clock $154,000 in debt for each taxpayer f. you are a couple, that's $300,000. now the debt, they say hae tweaked lower. what are go doing to do about the debt finally, do you think there will ever be any type of a real agreement? the g.o.p. has ten-year plan to get rid of that. >> yeah, republicans have put a budget on a proposal that attempts to do that. but then they are also proposing this change to medicare payments for doctors. and so in the late '90s they half passed this bill that was
1:24 pm
supposed to restrain the growth of medicare payments to doctors. and each year when it's come time to make those cuts they have kicked the can down the road and averted that. now they want to spend $140 billion to make those -- to maintain doctor's spending levels. and so to a lot of conservatives this raises the concern that, look, when it comes to making cuts, congress is always going to balk. >> we've seen the clock recently going only one way not the other way. that is a major challenge for congress. flil klein thank you for joining us this afternoon. >> thanks for having me. major pushback denies daylight saving time with some lawmaker proposing legislation to do away with turning back the clock. bills ending the twice a year time change has been drafted. in most cases states would simply pick a time and stick with it year round. the states examining this

it is the bottom of the hour, now time for the top of the news. u.n. security council wrapping up an emergency meeting on the growing violence in yes, ma'amen. this comes only one day after the u.s. pulled our remaining special forces out of that country. iranian supported rebels are launching assaults on more yemeni cities as they continue to battle against -- to the country's ousted pro u.s. president. the cia director says the top iranian general is ikt complicating talks in iraq. calling out the general for further destabilizing the region and says he does not consider iran to be an ally against isis.
1:31 pm
that general has been advising iraqi forces against isis in tikrit. this is on top of recent comments of the joint chiefs chairman who says that the u.s. worries that iranian militia men may eventually turn, further destabilizing the country. an al qaeda linked militant group has captured syrian military pilots after their helicopter was forced to make an emergency landing not far from the syrian turkey border. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu securing his term with an election earlier this week. now begins a new challenge for the prime minister and his party, forming a new coalition government. conor powell is live in jerusalem with the latest. >> reporter: with his commandsing victory on tuesday,
1:32 pm
israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has a solid and reliably conservative bloc to form his new government on. as he sets out he has taken criticism from here at home and about abroad. . he has been criticized after netanyahu took several hard line positions during the election vowing to block the establishment of an independent palestinian state if reelected. but it was his effort to get out the base voters that caused the real tension in israel. on the final day of election netanyahu warned that arab israelis who were voting in, quote, droves -- that comment drew accusation of racism here from the arab community while the white house said it was deeply concerned about the divisive language coming from netanyahu's party.
1:33 pm
now, president riff lin said today in a benjamin netanyahu's new government must serve all israelis both jews and arabs. he is expected to work on relations with the united states and also trying to hold a firm line on blocking the international community's attempts to work a deal with iran. he is also seeking to repair some of the relationship with the obama administration that really sort of deteriorated in recent weeks. but it's clear from both president obama's comments in recent days and other white house officials that there is still a lot of anger over both the election and prime minister netanyahu's speech at congress a few weeks ago. so it will be a tough road ahead for the prime minister and for that relationship with the united states. >> connor thanks for staying on top of all this for us. we'll see you again. in afghanistan a woman beaten to death by a mob for allegedly burning a koran was actually innocent. that according to the investigators in the country saying there was no evidence of
1:34 pm
that act. women's rights activists carried the coffin of the 27-year-old during the funeral today. hundreds of people gathered there for that service. her death has drawn wide condemnation from around the world. so far, 13 people have been arrested in connection to that ettle brutal attack. >> the afghan president will be in washington this week for a meeting with president obama. this is his first visit to the united states since take office last fall. the two leaders are expected to discuss the time line of the u.s. troop withdrawal from afghanistan. now, during a call about the visit a national security council official said, quote this is a different relationship than we had under president car zi. it's clearly more cooperative and better. end quote. j.t. mcfar land is a national security analysis and former secretary of defense in the reagan administration. always a pleasure to talk with
1:35 pm
you. let's start with this. what does this mean, this new relationship, if you will, for the withdrawal of american troops out of afghanistan? and what does it mean about the afghan troop readiness? and finally f all of the american troops pull out -- if -- what happens to that area. >> those are exactly the right questions to ask. why? because the new president of afghanistan is actually a good guy. unlike the ped cessor who was corrupt and incompetent tent and everybody hated him, the new guy actual lease has a chance. he is coming to washington and he's saying president obama please don't pull american troops out on the schedule that you have, because if you do we are sure to see in afghanistan what we saw in iraq where there will be a civil war arc multiparty civil war. et cetera going to come and try to urge obama to change the withdrawal time line. will that make a difference? only time will tell. one thing is for certain. we pull out of afghanistanlike we did with iraq in 2011 1k we
1:36 pm
will see in afghanistan the same thing which is a civil war. we think a civil is this, one side versus the other side. >> not there. >> in the middle east there are dozens of sides in any civil war. will he be able to hold the country together if some residual u.s. force remains? maybe not. but at least he has a fighting chance. >> does this improve relationships between the two presidents? would it help in the fight against isis and al qaeda? and does such an improved relationship in any way pave a path to quell the chaos in the region? >> you are right to point out the relationship. president obama puts a lot of stock in whether he likes somebody or not. we've just seen what he has done in israel where he doesn't like the prime minister of israel. he has a terrible relationship. coming to the united states, meeting with obama maybe there is a opportunity for a good
1:37 pm
relationship which will lend itself -- >> it is a communication. >> it's the middle east. will anything be stabilized? i think we are looking at a generation of conflict, whether it's in afghanistan or pakistan or yemen and the saudi peninsula, or iraq or syria, or libya, or algeria or tune eeshia. i think there are so many parties that want to fight each other. it's tribal. it's ethnic. sectarian, and it's fueled by arab oil. >> you mentioned yemen. what led to the decay of yemen? i mean could the u.s. and allies have prevented this breakdown? and will yemen now of course become grounds for al qaeda and isis to fester? >> yemen has been the new franchise. it was the al qaeda franchise which was doing the most international activities. what we see now in yemen is the iranian backed -- the houthis, who are backed by iran. they are shiites. and the al qaeda sunni, and they
1:38 pm
are going at each other along with a lot of other tribes in yemen. as the former director of the cia told me the head of yemen, the president, whatever the title is, is not really a chief executive officer. he is like a juggler, he has all these fwhals the air, he has to keep this tribe happy that tribe happy. >> the iran going to be the head mess master juggler, they are going to take over? >> what worries me is the negotiation we are having with iran where we are pretending that they are going to stop their nuclear problem program -- they are going to unplug it from the wall and give us a pinkie swear they won't develop nuclear weapons n. exchange we will lift economic sanction. iran will become the dominant economic poumplt it's already the dominant regional power it has hezbollah and yemen and control of iraq now the iraqi forces. so iran becomes the dominant power in the region.
1:39 pm
iran becomes a threshold nuclear state. and the other countries in the region, i think are going to react in the next several years saying america has blessed this, america has left the middle east, left iran in charge. what's our option? maybe we need our own nuclear weapons. that's my nightmare scenario a nuclear arms race in the middle east. >> k.t. mcfar land -- >> not happy stuff. >> no, no, very scary. thank you very much. an alabama woman convicted of causing the death of her 9-year-old grand daughter is going to learn her fate tomorrow. she could get the death penalty for allegedly running her granddaughter to death. should she? our legal panel is here. >> be sure to nun at 8:00 eastern tonight for strange inheritance hosted by jamie colby followed by strange inheritance unpacked with melissa frances. where there is a will, there is a way to house the largest car collection. >> a world record car

1:44 pm
a new hampshire teenager walks away unharmed after crashing his car over the merrimack river. police say he lost control hit a snow bank and went airborne. the car came to a stop on a guardrail on this bridge. you can see the rear of the carover the edge. the teenager was ticketed for failing to keep his car within the roadway. you me between lines. the woman who ran her 9-year-old granddaughter to death could find out tomorrow if she will get the death penalty. she is 49-year-old joyce gerard. she forced the child to run and carry wood for several hours all to punish her for eating candy, until the girl collapsed and died a few days later. the woman testified she only made the child pick up sticks
1:45 pm
from her yard. the jurors didn't buy the dchlts should she face the death penalty. we have a panel to discuss it. robert, rachel, this is a horrendous heart breaking horrendousace case, just repulsive what this woman did. >> it is a tragedy. any time a 9-year-old dies it is a sad day. when you find out she was killed by a family member, the grant mother, a confidante of the little girl. >> does she derve the death penalty? >> absolutely not. it's reserved for the heinous crimes. the legislative intent of it was for people with true evil thought. that was not this. it was not intented for reckless whafr, which is what this grandmother -- >> look at thatdays face your adoring little granddaughter. and you are punishing her with abject ignorance of human decency to run that little girl
1:46 pm
for hours in the front yard picking up stuff until the girl is begging and crying, collapse and dies. >> it is reckless. the one thing that should concern the defense and the defendant here which may lead to her getting the death penalty is how quickly they convicted her. this isn't the run of the mill murder case where someone was stabbed or shot. this is a question of whether or not thaek they can sustain a murder conviction. they convicted her after she testified in under four hours. jurors don't convict murderers that quickly. they usually take their time to go through the evidence, especially when there are such legal issues. >> do you think they were ruled by emotion. >> absolutely. >> they accident like her. >> now the same jury is making the determination on whether or not you are getting life in prison or dying. >> ultimately the judge has the ultimate say in the death penalty. the jury gets to weigh in. but it is obvious there was something about her they didn't
1:47 pm
like. obviously the facts are tragic. apparently she told varying versions on the stand. any time you testify as a defendant you are looking at a dangerous play. then to be caught in lies. three and a half hours is fast to decide to convict someone of murder. >> as you say, you talk about the criminal intent. you would think she did not mean for her granddaughter to die. is that the mitigating factor. >> one of them. and apparently the hospital where the girl was treated there might have been some issues there with how they tried to save her and whether or not they did everything they could do to save her. that could also be mitigating factor. >> right, the prosecution is going to put in their aggravating factors and the defense is going to put in their mitigating factors. now the jury is going to hear things they didn't hear during the trial which could change the way they make the determination. yes, the question is going to be where does the family stands
1:48 pm
are they going to support the grandmother, give victim impact statements? >> the little girl's stepmother herself is awaiting trial for murder because she was apparently present and come police it in the behavior. the father of the little girl is still overseas, apparently. so you are absolutely right. victim impact statements can have a signature impact here as well. >> the hearing is tomorrow. rachel and robert, just a tragic sad case. we'll have to see what develops tomorrow in court. >> thank you. three little girls, all battling cancer became an internet sensation when they gathered to snap these pictures early last year. the girls wanted to show how close they had become during the fight of their lives. their touching photos went viral on soeld. check this out. here they are again, nearly a year later. i'm happy to report the girls aged 4 through 7, are all in remission.
