of you not letting lunch and we will continue its coverage, of course, of the london terror attacks. were back your neck sunday. see you then 11 eastern. eric: it is at 12 noon and 5:00 o'clock at london. we are tracking the latest after several terrorists brought their personal destruction to the london bridge. the long shadow of terror once again falling across the uk as new developments come to us by the hour. at least 12 arrests so far. that number is changing by the hour however, as well. details of the plot, where it started are not known at this hour. this is a special sunday edition of america's newsroom. i'm bill live in new york city. shannon and washington. >> i am at shannon in washington. a busy saturday night in the city turned to panic in an
9:01 am
instant. >> people scrambling for their lives as cass expected the streets. the attack and folded within minutes and by the time it was over at least seven innocent people were dead, 48 injured. that's after a band iran down a crowd of pedestrians on london bridge. followed by multiple stabbing attacks in a nearby restaurant district. finally, the three attackers were shot and killed by police. witnesses described the chaos. >> two armed came out and shot rang out. there's a question then. >> i saw loads of people run away from the market and you'll see people lying on the ground and a taxi driver had his window down and was shouting at people to run. we iran for a hundred meters and
9:02 am
there was a quite intense gunfire. i hid in a restaurant basement. bill: as the investigation unfolds police remain barricaded in the area of london bridge and in borough market where the attackers jumped out of the van nice. prime minister is calling for a crackdown in her country. >> since the emergence from terrorism our country has made significant progress in disrupting plot and protecting the public but it is time to say enough is enough. everybody needs to go about their life as they normally would. our society should continue to function in accordance with our values but when it comes to taking on extremism and terrorism things need to change.
9:03 am
shannon: president trump quickly weighing in on twitter. whatever the united states can do to help in london, in the uk, we will be there. we are with you. god bless five people are working the story at home and overseas. catherine harris watching the response from washington. david lee muller live in london and let's start with you. what more do we know about these killers at this hour? >> most significantly, there was a press conference in london and police officials said there were only three perpetrators, all three of the perpetrators were killed but it is possible that they may have had some type of help. it's not entirely clear at this hour. one of the greatest clues here might be the white man, rented a white van that the attackers were using. we have a still frame of this man, you can get a pretty good idea of what it looked like. at this point, the vehicle, this is after it had mowed down a number of restaurants on the london bridge. it came to a rest after it
9:04 am
jumped a curb and it appears to be up against delightful here. according to authorities, it was at this point that the men inside the van exited and began to stab anyone insight witnesses say they will never forget before. [inaudible] we are about to cross the street when the white man was and i said to my friend something is not right, there's something not right here. people were running about and screaming and shouting. reporter: at this hour, though, we can still see people coming by the location here just a short distance from london bridge. where the stabbings take place they are bringing flowers and other items in a makeshift memorial. one man who lives and works in this neighborhood came by to express how heartsick he was over what happened. he said this really brought the
9:05 am
threat of terror home. bill: it has happened yet again, listening to scotland yard with more details about where they are in the investigation. how significant is the timing of this attack? reporter: a couple of things can be ignored here. this attack takes place just one day, less than two weeks after the bombing in manchester in which 22 people died. is there a connection that is one of things still being investigated. also, noteworthy now, perhaps more importantly is the attack that takes place some five days before borders in the uk go to the polls for a national election. london's mayor a short time ago said that people here are going to remain defiance and they will not going to let acts of terror change how they live their lives. listen. >> they want to stop us enjoying the freedoms that we have, enjoying meeting in the heart of
9:06 am
london on saturday having a good time. they would stop us from voting on thursday and enjoying the democracy that we have. we can't allow them to do that. we are going to count by terrorism. five the terror threat level in this country, at this hour, remains as severe. you might recall after what happened in manchester, it was raised to critical and brought back down. despite the fact that it is not at the highest level many here remain very much on edge. bill. bill: good to have you on the ground. will be back for the next hour with the latest from london. back to shannon in washington. shannon: will check in with catherine in washington live at the various leaders. do we know who is behind the latest attack in london? reporter: no group is claiming responsibly at this hour but within minutes of the attack senior isis affiliated social media accounts put out propaganda on using vehicles as
9:07 am
weapons, also putting more violence. it's not clear from our reporting whether the isis were opportunistic or the terror group actually played a role. this morning us and uk intelligence are focused on the suspects and whether they acted alone or whether the network behind it. british security forces say early indications suggest the attacks may have been pull together as a short notice but on "fox news sunday", the senate intelligence committee said the attack a pattern. >> we think other groups are looking at the war advanced kind of attacks and clearly, this is from all directions. isis tends to take credit for the things that you can steal a truck, get your van, driving a car, terrorized people with very little planning or backup. shannon: the british by minister compared the police have ported five credible plot since the march attack on westminster bridge in london about a mile from last night attack.
9:08 am
further, david the miller's point, this decision to lower the threat level recently has endless questioning whether there was in fact, an intelligence failure in this case. shannon: catherine, what about us here in the us. how does it impact our operations and outlook on terror of the? >> at this time they had no information to indicate a specific credible threat to the united states. secretary kelly told fox news last night that he worries that we are quote right around the corner from having a similar attack but for the efforts of dhs and law enforcement agenci agencies. counterterrorism analyst are flagging a message posted to pro isis channeled on telegram saturday calling for lone wolf path during the holy month of ramadan but again there is no evidence yet, that they are connected. a lot of that will known from the forensic review of the suspects electronics. shannon: thank you so much. bill: more perspective now the national security and foreign affairs is happen yet again.
9:09 am
thank you for your time today. trying to figure out together. what is your hunch as he tried to piece it together? >> the statement made by prime minister theresa may in which she said we will continue to enjoy our freedoms but something has to change. that is in contrast with a lot of the political establishment statements that had nothing to change. my question is what it says it should change patrick the public in britain and even here in america is asking what is it that we can do when we encounter these situations more and more will come. there needs to be a duty by government on both sides of the atlantic to start addressing the public on what to do and more than that, the second one, is that betting. the betting so far is not working or is working partially. what kind of new bedding that we need to have? we need to deter the next wave to come. bill: i thought her statement was a frank.
9:10 am
i thought it was tough. do you believe the actions of her government will follow on the words of her dress today. >> her statement was good also because she's using the terminology that we use which is islamic ideological muslim threats. we are there now. the front of the next question will be what is the state of affairs? how many of these jihadists are on british soil or on american soil second, what can we do to stop more blood to stop the bleeding, here comes the discussion of it should be banned or not thirdly and most widely in this case, we need to make sure that authorities on both sides of the atlantic are able to go after that networks that are in citing -- every time we arrest them we look at what networks were backing them but who isn't inciting them and indoctrinating them. bill: hear something i'm trying to figure out.
9:11 am
we had three attacks in england in three months. when you think about france, last year, and that deadly year you had refrigerated talk in nice that covered killed it on bastille day and the other attack in paris and it was thought that france was a target then because of its ongoing contribution to try to wipe out isis in syria and iraq, if you follow that logic then what's the logic for england being the target now? >> it's the same. uk, france, nato, and of course the united states, our arab partners. we are all engaged in one thing that is tragic to the jihadist to bring down the caliphate. as we are shrinking the caliphate but after bit and i think were going slow, we need to go faster. we will actually expect that whatever that caliphate has in terms of branches or supporters
9:12 am
around the world including britain and france they'll use them. they will actually give them the guidelines, use any weapon you can. it's not about studying the weapon of the knife or the car or the bomb if anything they can do to try to delay us. bill: is ramadan been mentioned about four times in the first ten minutes here. do you think this has a connection? especially when you consider the amount of devastation that occurred during ramadan last year. >> i don't think ramadan triggers things. the jihadist use ramadan and they will use anything they can including weaponization of an ideology and use of new means and including the emotionally charged month of ramadan to recruit home their own people. they always ask them questions here in france or britain how large is that will respect five roy blunt was on "fox news sunday" at we heard a comment from him a moment ago. he was also asked by chris wallace about the travel ban and he said the following.
9:13 am
listen here. >> my view was the president does have, certainly, the right to put in place extreme betting and of course it's been four months since they needed four months to put that in place. you can do that without a travel and in his making the point that it's been four months. bill: was originally a 90 day ban on those six-seven countries, originally. this suggests that the white house could have completed its mission already given the time has expired. what you think about that? >> i'm not sure. i don't have the information about why 90 days, six months. is it based on what exactly but what i can see is that if we had a strategic vetting system not overnight from the last election
9:14 am
but from the last eight-ten years, this whole war started on 911, 15 years ago. if we had a vetting system we might not need a travel ban. the ban is to stop the incoming of potential jihadist, not of the communities but the jihadist that would penetrate until we find a way for a better vetting. we don't have the vetting and therefore, the band has not also been implied. we need a new strategy for both vetting and band five you know as well as anyone. thank you for your insight. thank you, sir. back to shannon. shannon: davis decided the show must go on. ariana conde will take off her benefit concert in manchester, england even in the wake of leslie's attack in the heart of london. the concert will raise money for the victims of the victims two weeks ago. twenty-two people were killed. conde will be justin bieber, coldplay, frau williams and katie perry are among the performers that will take the stage.
9:15 am
it is a brave thing and it will send a clear message as they stand up there five i think you're right about that. you have to consider that they were just thinking about the security and getting this thing underway and now they're dealing with the another hit just to the southeast. we'll see how it goes in there for them for standing up. that was one of three semi things. she said enough is enough but were not to stop living so were just watching that. also, the people of england are stunned and then wake up the next era terrorist attack. what actions are being taken care of here at home cushman lindsey graham has been tight on this from day one. we'll talk to him live a bit later about the show. shannon: performer congressman protected the rise of terrorism more than a year ago he does live is the coverage of the london terror attacks continues on america's newsroom. >> they were stabbing everybody and whoever was nearing. they iran into bars and restaurants, stabbing everybody.

hatred, sows division and promotes secretary and is him. it is an ideology that claims are western views of freedom, democracy and human rights are incompatible with the religion of islam. bill: the uk prime minister and you'll be seeing and hearing a lot from her in the days to come. that was her earlier today. they have election in four days. the terror attacks in england in three months time and, it's getting as it should, a lot of attention in that election. my next guest protected such a rise in terror attacks from europe more than a year ago. pete hoekstra former chairman of the house intelligence committee from grand rapids, michigan. thank you for taking time with our audience today. what were you seen a year ago that led you to believe that? >> a year ago we did an analysis of the investigative project on terrorism and we saw an increase in over 700% in the locality,
9:21 am
the number of people would be killed because of the result of a radical jihadist attack from around 3200 people in 21,122,015 and that number had increased to 27000. from 320,227,005 it failed states in the middle east, iraq, syria, yemen, and afghanistan and the violence was concentrated but it was starting to spread into africa and asia and europe. clearly, it was identified as a fertile ground in europe. radical jihadist out of libya and syria were in the soft underbelly into europe. it was a prime target. bill: it was a physical movement then? it wasn't just internet talk that you get in much of the time? >> our apologies there. hang with us. pete hoekstra the republican
9:22 am
from michigan, if you get the line reestablished, let me know. it's a very important stuff when we think about the study and what he went to find. this is one of his conclusions. put it on the screen. in europe he talks about the increase of tax over the next 18-24 months, he also talks about in africa the terror expanding geographically all according to the study they were doing a year ago. in the middle east they will target jordan, saudi arabia and they may have caught them after a moment ago. can you put that mac back up your if we bring the former congressman into the conversation again when you look at this map the thing that is striking to me is what's happening in western europe -- >> it really is. the policies that western europe has had in place for the last 20 years, mass immigration, no vetting of the people coming in, and in many cases, welcoming jihadist into their countries. especially into the uk. then you see a lack of
9:23 am
assimilation and then the immigration, migration in the last 24-36 months of people coming from libya, syria with very little to no vetting, experienced fighters, jihadists and you know, this is the cesspool that is creating this environment in europe now that is breeding these kind of attacks. our government officials saw it coming, this is not brain surgery, they saw it coming -- i'm not sure they reacted strong enough and clearly they had not prepared the public for what's happening there today five what should be done and said that the case? this is unfortunate. sir, my apologies. pete we have one line with your
9:24 am
studio in grand rapids, michigan and you cannot hear us. our apologies to our viewers at home. in the meantime, let's look at the view here in central london. shannon, you read event last night where you talk homeland security secretary about this and how it traveled here and et cetera but what did you gain from that conversation? shannon: the first thing they said was lamenting the fact that in his brief time as a security secretary here in the us that in just four months time this would be his fourth or fifth call to a counterpart in the uk because of what they're facing there. he said the people in dhs and our law enforcement agencies are working around the clock just as they are there in great britain but they said we are quotes around the corner from this kind of thing happening here in the us if we don't remain vigilant. i asked him the question that general mattis, sacramento got last week about what keeps you up at night and he essentially said nothing, i keep people up at night what secretary kelly to
9:25 am
me last night was that i don't have bombs in drums like secretary mattis does so he said i am tossing and turning all night thinking about these things because they are relentless when it comes to aviation and only geography has stopped a lot of this from getting to our shores. he also had a ton of praise for people at dhs. his decade-long marine and he said when i got to dhs and took over the department i was just so beyond impressed with how were doing here in the us, with people of the homeland security department five i thought pete stress comment about the physical movement is significant. now were living in another country and if you're filled with the ideology you're waiting for the opportunity to strike. your with secretary kelly last night in real time as these events are unfolding. how is he keeping in contact with those events, shannon. shannon: was speaking at an event to celebrate fundraising for marine corps children here in the us we need a college education in ways they can be supported. so, it was an upbeat event but
9:26 am
as soon as he took the stage he right away mentioned that were monitoring the situation and lined up at my phone had been blowing up seidman seen it but a lot of people at the event hadn't seen in real time and there was a gap in the room. it was clear when i talked to them after he left the stage that he had been fully briefed and was all for the evening. there is a time where he stepped away and was clear that he was getting minute by minute updates. i asked him if at that point he was calling it terrorism and he said, you know, we aren't calling at that but noted that london police there and officials there had absolutely made that characterization. he just wanted to stress that we need to be vigilant here because were facing the same kind of threat. bill: all signs pointed to it.as quite clear. what's next here as we thank pete hoekstra, in michigan, shannon. shannon: . tax in fremont and britain. is our strategy working perspective colonel oliver joins us about what's happening on the battlefield and how that
9:27 am
directly impacts the western world. >> this is another low-tech brutal side. how do you stop a terrorist armed with trucks and knives or do they boost the case for measures like the travel ban from the white house all that still to come on a sunday edition of america's newsroom. >> they were confronted with was a critical situation. three armed men wearing what appeared to be suicide belts, they had already attacked and killed members of the public and had to be stopped immediately "is your daughter ok?" that's where i felt relief. we're the rivera family, and we will be with usaa for life. it's how well you mow fast. it's not how fast you mow... ...it's how well you mow fast! they're not just words to mow by, they're words to live by. the john deere ztrak z345r.
9:30 am
if you have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis, isn't it time to let the real you shine through? introducing otezla, apremilast. otezla is not an injection or a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. some people who took otezla saw 75% clearer skin after 4 months. and otezla's prescribing information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. don't take otezla if you are allergic
9:31 am
to any of its ingredients. otezla may increase the risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts, or if these feelings develop. some people taking otezla reported weight loss. your doctor should monitor your weight and may stop treatment. side effects may include diarrhea, nausea, upper respiratory tract infection, and headache. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, and if you're pregnant or planning to be. ask your dermatologist about otezla today. otezla. show more of you. i am appalled in furious that these cowardly terrorists would deliberately target innocent londoners and bystanders enjoying their saturday night. there can be no justifications for the acts of these terrorist and i'm quite clear that we will
9:32 am
never let them win, nor will be allow them to cower our city. shannon: that london's mayor talking about the attack. the seven lives lost and many more injured as ice is called for an all-out war at the start of ramadan and attacks on innocent people. how do we step up our fight especially against terrorism in centuries like syria, iraq and afghanistan. i'm joined by lieutenant colonel oliver north tired from the marines. author of counterfeit life. four series and the fox news military analyst. i've been hanging out with a lot of marines and i can't think a better company to be with this for you. you have been in the region recently. you know what not only what we are facing but the coalition trying to say about isis and what are we getting right and wrong? >> we are paying the price for what obama didn't do what he was president. kowtowing to the muslim brotherhood and ignoring what isis is doing is making the effort now to dislodge isis from mosul in northern iraq and
9:33 am
district stand created an enormous refugee problem that is now affecting the rest of the world. perpetrators last night probably weren't refugees from that attack. nonetheless, they have so many of them all over europe and the uk that keeping tabs on the ones they've actually been watching is becoming increasingly difficult. our challenge in the united states is to immediately establish a policy of no safe havens for terrorists anywhere. in other words, there's probably going to be an effort to merge isis and al qaeda. that will create an even larger global terrorist organization. if we can do that and get our allies to back us up that will seriously adversely affect the propaganda of evil, radical islam being propagated all over the world. two parts of it: no safe havens and start making sure that we don't have opportunities for them to distribute this propaganda. that will take somebody sitting
9:34 am
down in the high-tech summit with the cell phone so can be used to establish a new wave of terror like they did for ramadan. they're using ramadan as a way to motivate people's attention. what you are seeing now is a very real prospect of that social media being used to attack us. what we need to do is implement the travel surveillance plan that president trump. shannon: it's going to the supreme court. >> yes, emilio after that i hope they start inputting it. we don't need more of what's happening in europe coming here. the bottom line of it is that it won't happen overnight. it will be a decade-long effort to stamp out radical islamic evil -- that's what it really is. make sure we can have that kind of thing happen it's happened three times in fremont and london, happened here. this is not an ultimate catastrophe for london. i remind people 77 years ago today at this very minute the
9:35 am
last votes were pulling off dunkirk. that was a catastrophe. this is nothing like that but terror has an effect on economics, tourism, all of the things that you and i and the rest of the world wants people to do, if it continues that way, begins to degrade your entire society and you turn to bad things. start asking for much more than what ray kelly was able to do in new york with his surveillance program. it becomes intrusive on our civil liberties. thank god, we in america, have the second amendment that says a gunman, an honest man with a gun can stop a lot of bad guys was nice. that would've helped last night. shannon: we have a lot of constitutional rights here, thankfully, that many have been eroded in recent years. hopefully we'll get a good shot in the arm of coming back. i want to ask you to about this
9:36 am
issue of arming the kurds because in that region there's been a lot made over the years that over the last few years they couldn't get their hands on anything that would've been helpful and now we understand weaponry's and vehicle and other things are pouring to them. how can that help or change the equation? >> there fighting for one thing, the homeland. there's 40 million kurds without iran, iraq, syria and all the way down into the heartland of turkey. in the end of it, that they want. helping the kurds is a good thing. they've suffered more than any other group except perhaps christians which is a much smaller numbers out there. as a group of people, as in ethnic people, they deserve to have a homeland. i'm encouraged to do is not happy in turkey. we ought not to be happy about erdogan. he allowed isis to use his territory to form back in the early 2000's. he allowed them to move back and forth across the borders, he allowed thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of foreigners to come to turkey to get into syria to allow isis to enormous volumes starting in 2012.
9:37 am
he's paying a price for it as well. shannon: colonel, you've given us much thought. thank you for your service ever be with us today bill. bill: shannon, as you know, many are an edge in the uk really from another act of terrorism. there's a significant concert scheduled for manchester to begin within hours. how will the security go for that event is this the work last night of copycat attackers ambassador john bolton live with his take today. meanwhile, rehearing more of the stories from those who witnessed last night's horrific violence firsthand. >> the police kept the area safe and they were evacuating us they were our eyes and ears as we were looking down to avoid the shoes and wallets and blood and whatever they were keeping us safe. try new parodontax toothpaste. ♪
9:38 am
9:42 am
i can't say short of hugely increased resources for security services i can't say anything else we can do. now, we could take the three have thousands who are the genuinely suspected terrorists themselves, as opposed to being linked and associated, we could rounded them all up and in turn them in prison. that is an option. bill: an option not likely to happen. john bolton former us investor to the un, fox news contributor here to talk about a lot of things now. how are you sir? good sunday afternoon to you. >> the one thing is that he cannot see with this hugely increased resources doing more when you consider the levels of security that have already been ramped up. what is your view on that. >> i think more could be done but there's a different point of
9:43 am
issue. we've got to get away from viewing these terror attacks is something that law enforcement needs to respond to. teresa may set it very well that this is part of a radical, islamic ideology and there are people in this country who simply don't believe that and that's fundamentally wrong but if we were facing an ideology at war as we conventionally understood it we went on treated as a law enforcement matter. we would treat it as a tack of the united states. not that these attacks are coordinated by a central authority but we need to get away from the idea that somehow this is knocking over the corner grocery store. it's very different if we put it on a war footing we could treat these differently by preventing the attacks which is where the emphasis is. bill: if went to a war footing what would be different? >> the idea that it's permissible to advocate violence to conspire to create the circumstances that lead to the attacks, i thank you could have a lot more vigorous
9:44 am
investigation and using line freshman against that in this country. combined with what we ought to be doing overseas to break up the caliphate that isis now holds an radicals prevent them from getting to recruit and train and deploy these kind of attacks. bill: on the sunday show earlier today and one of the points he talked about was how the us is integrated in ways that you don't find in london, arguably and manchester and in france, marseille, and the south of france. he said the following now get your reaction to this. >> i believe in many ways the muslim american community is better integrated into our society and i think that's always been our secret sauce in america that you can come here first generation and if yous an, become american, but that is not has always been the case in the european countries. we are seeing, again,.
9:45 am
>> how much truth is there in that respect. >> the melting pot is one of america's greatest strength. senator warren is creating that britain, france, all across europe they simply have no experience in really integrating immigrants into their society. let's also be clear that the melting pot is under enormous assault in this country what's called multiculturalism the idea that you don't have to change anything to be an american, you just have to be physically within the states of america borders. that's a very dangerous tendency. even if the melting pot worked perfectly, it's not a hundred% defense, and it should tell us that we need to be even more worried perhaps about people coming into the country from outside. bill: talk about teresa may and i thought it was a pretty strong statement. >> we believe that we are experiencing a new trend in the threat we face. as terrorism reads terrorism. as perpetrators are inspired to attack not only on the basis of
9:46 am
carefully constructed pots after years of planning and training and not even low attackers online but by copying one another and often using the crudest of means of attack five i think in that address she said all the right things. rhetorically it was fine. you know a lot about british government. rhetorically it was fine but are they following it with action? >> she's in a difficult position. we are four days away from a british general election that's been punctuated by two portable terrorist attacks. after the first one in manchester she took down the threat level from the highest only to be faced with this. it's hard in the aftermath of the tragedy to talk this way but there's a huge unknown now factoring in do britons really feel concerned enough about this to factor into their vote on thursday i think they will but
9:47 am
we don't know how it will come out in her favor or in the opposition favor. bill: do you think they have a firmer grasp of you security. >> i think that labour party has zero credibility on national security. bill: which means theresa may wins in five days. yes, except that she was home secretary for seven-eight years and responsible for homeland security there and we've seen these two attacks, we saw the attack on parliament come across the bridge there. one could well ask if she is the expert, how come these attacks have happened but she has a vulnerability and that's why i think this tragedy coming so close to the election really throws it up in the air. bill: 45 minutes ago, while the was with us and your member the tax in france, nice, paris, and it was largely thought that the reason why they were striking on their homeland was because the french government joined the france in iraq in syria. what then, if possible, what then would explain.
9:48 am
tax in england in three months? >> in part, it's because you have a large indigenous population that's potentially radicalized. people who came from the subcontinent that was pakistan and bangladesh and being transportation bombings in london in 2005 killed over 50 people all done by people born and raised in the united kingdom, nativeborn citizens from pakistani dissent. it's a terrible threat, i think, when people can be born and raised in a free society, see all of the benefits of a free society and still succumb to the radical islamic ideology, still engage in terrorist act. that's why despite what we mentioned a moment ago about our melting pot, i am worried about it here too. this is a powerful, religious ideology and the secular age many people don't understand its attraction. bill: thank you, sir. watching that man on the side of the road against the lamppost it is such a simple image with a
9:49 am
