what did you see? >> this is the "cbs overnight news." >> the bells at the cathedral of notre dame tolled monday for the 129 people who died in the terrrr attacks, and at night, in their honor, the eiffel tower is bathed in the french national colors. the terrorists left the heart of this nation wounded, but the president vowed they will never destroy its soso. france observed a moment of silence at noon today to remember the dead and pray for the wounded. the victims were from 19 nations, including the united states. secretary of state john kerry arrived here to pay america's respects to its oldest ally. kerry said tonight we are all parisians. french president francois hollande addressed a joint
4:01 am
versailles palace the morning after france launched air strikes against isis targets in syria. hollande vowed, "it is just the beginning." seven terrorists died in the attacks fridid night, but tonight the hunt continues for more. elizabeth palmer is following that. >> reporter: the police response to the attacks was swift and widespread. along g th an aggressive manhunt, security services carried out more than 150 property searches, slapped house arrest orders on over 100 people, and deported 38 more. in paris, president francois hollande vowed that terrorism would not defeat the french republic. "the republic," he said, would defeat terrorismsm but it's a tall order. high-profile security around parisian landmarks projects an image of force and vigilance,
4:02 am
but, in fact, most public places are soft tararts, as friday's attacks proved. [gunfire] with chilling clarity. mathieu guidere is an expert on extremism and radicalization. the terrorists have realized bigig western cities are very vulnerable. >> very vulnerable. exactly. we were protected by our perception of security. so all the cities in the world, all the main capitals are now really vulnerable. >> reporter: it was a game changer. >> it was a game changer, yeah. >> reporter: the french president today described syria as the greatest terrorism factory the world has ever known. and right now more than 500 french citizens are there, fighting with isis. at least three of the men directly linked to friday's attacks did time on that battlefield and were already known to french intelligence. one of them was even supposed to report regularly to the police
4:03 am
but had stopped showing up. then three days ago he surfaced as one of the killers at the bataclan concert hall. the truth is that with 10,000 open files on suspected radicals that need monitoring, either in person or online, french intelligence is simply overwhelmed. >> liz palmer, thank you, liz. the dragnet extended quickly beyond france, and allen pizzey reports tonight from belgium. >> reporter: the international manhunt brought belgian police to this house in the brussels suburb of molenbeek where they thought one of the suspects was hiding, but they came up empty handed. their target was salah abdeslam, a 26-year-old man authorities believe rented a car that was used in the attacks. he was reportedly stopped by the police and then released just hohos after the attacks, and it was feared he returned to this neighborhood. the two men who were with salah abdeslam have now been arrested

and one of his brothers blew himself up with a suicide vest outside a restaurant. a third brother, mohamed, said his family did not understand why they did it. "we never had any problem with justice," he said. "my parents are in shock. they don't quite reaeaze what has hahaened." the impoverished suburb of molenbeek is known to be a hotbed of jihadist recruitment. the mayor says at least 30 young men have left here to go fight for isis in syria. the neighborhood was also home to this man, abdelhamid abaaoud, who french investigators believe is the mastermind behind the terrorist attacks. abaaoud is now thought to be in syria and has appeared in isis propaganda videos. he even recruited his own 13- year-old brother into isis. molenbeek is where the jihadi and criminal worlds meet, one-stop shopping for drugs, explosives and automatic weapons, an extremist's dream, a security nightmare. scott? >> allen pizzey in brussels. thank you, allen.

slipped into europe in the wave of refugees that fled syria. the clue is in a passport found near the body of a suicide bomber outside the soccer stadium. holly williams picks up the story in athens. >> reporter: greece says this man arrived on its shores claiming to be a refugee on october 3rd and used this syrian passport, suspspted to be fake, which identifies him as ahmad al mohammad, 25 years old and born in northwestern syria. ioannis mouzalas is the greek immigration minister. he didn't have any record? >> nothing. nothing at all. >> reporter: so there was no reason for you to suspect he might be an extremist? >> reporter: the man carrying the passport crossed to greece from turkey, the same route used
4:06 am
by over 600,000 migrants this year, many of them syrian refugees. he didn't appear on any international wanted list, so he was registered by the greek authorities, fingerprpnted and then allowed to enter europe. >> reporter: it's long been feared isis could use the flood of refugees to smuggle its fighters into europe, but, scott, this case seems to show just how easy it is to do so. >> holly williams in athens tonight.

president obama said again today that he wants to resettle tens of thousands of refugees in the u.s. but after paris, his plan has hit a roadblock, and here's nancy cordes. >> reporter: the terror attacks in france became a partisan issue in this coununy today, with at least 15 governors, all republicans, announcing they will try to block syrian refugees from resettling in their state. michigan governor rick snyder. >> we're going to suspend things until we get a chance to talk to the u.s. department of homeland security. >> reporter: he and others say they'll direct state agencies not to provide syrians the types of relocation n rvices normally supplied to refugees. massachusetts governor charlie baker. >> the safety and security of the people of the commonwealth of mass is my highest priority. >> reporter: that sentiment was shared by more than half the g.o.p. presidential fifid, who said the u.s. should halt plans to welcome 10,000 syrian refugees over the next year. >> there are refugees that need
4:11 am
to be cared for, but they should be resettled in the middle east in majority muslim countries. [ applause ] >> reporter: front-runner donald trump said he might also close some mosques if he becomes president. >> it's something you'll have to strongly consider bebeuse some of the ideas and some of the hatred, the absolute hatred is coming from these areas. >> reporter: roughly four million syrians have been displaced by the fighting. applicants for resettlement here are screened by the departments of state and homeland security. former florida governor jeb bush argued the u.s. should focus on accepting syrian christians, not muslims. >> because they're being aughtered in the country, and but for us who? >> reporter: the president sharply rejected that suggestion at the g-20 summit in turkey. >> that's shameful. that's not american. that's not who we are. we don't add religious tests to our compassion.
4:12 am
speaker paul ryan says he's considering legislation that would d ef up screening for refugees. the reality is, scott, there's very little a governor could do to keep someone from moving in their state once they've been allowed into the country. >> nancy cordes at the capitol. nancy, thank you. the paris attacks are the third major operation claimed by isis in just over two weeks. a russian jetliner blew up over egypt, killing all 224 on board. u.s. officials say the bomb, a bomb was the likely cause. last thursday twin suicide blasts in beirut killed 43. but after paris, we're in a whole new world according to michael morell, a former number two at the c.i.a. and now cbs news senior security contributor. >> i say "whole new world" for two reasons. one is isis now has developed an attack capability in the west. they told us that they would do
4:13 am
that. they've now done it in western europe. they told us that they would do that in the united states. they will eventually do that unless they are degraded. the second whole new world here is the targets they've chosen to attack. people don't sympathize with, but they certainly understand when isis attacks a government target or a military target or even "charlie hebdo" when somebody has defamed the prophet. people understand that. it's much more difficult to understand an attack on our very way of life that sows fear and terror. >> to that end, isis has posted new threats online and jeff pegues has more on t tt. [ speaking foreign language ] >> reporter: the video purporting to be from isis promised an attack on washington, but u.s. officials say there is no spececic or credible threat against the united states. on capitol hill, police are telling congressional staff to take precautions like using the
4:14 am
instead of walking above ground. and in new york, a new specialized police unit is providing extra security at key locations. s.w.a.t. teams and bomb-sniffing dogs are patrolling train station, airports and nfl stadiums around the country, but a response to a threat is only as good as the intelligence. and u.s. law enforcement believes one blind spot is when terrorists go dark, hiding their online communications. investigators say members of isis lure potential sympathizers to social media apps and forums where the messages self-destruct or re encrypted. law enforcement has been pressing the technology industry for access to that data when national security is at risk, but so far privacy concerns have won out. c.i.a. director john brennan. >> i do hope that this is going to be a wake-up call, particularly in areas of europe
4:15 am
mimiepresentation of what the intelligence and security services are doing. >> reporter: brennan warns more attacks like paris could be coming. >> i would anticipate that this is not thehenly operation that isil has in the pipeline. >> reporter: the tech industry says calls to weaken encrypted products undermine cyber security. scott, a law enforcement source is confident the attackers used encrypted communication, but it's unclear whether investigators have the attackers' cell phonesnd computers. >> jeff pegues in washington for us tonight. jeff, thank you. the french air strikes overnight in syria targeted raqqah, which isis claims as the capital of its so-called caliphate. david martin has that. >> reporter: the french chose targets based on sensitive u.s. intelligence that had not been provided to them before the paris attacks. they were military targets, a command center, an ammo dump and
4:16 am
training camps, which the u.s. would have hit sooner or later in any event, as charlie d'agata reported from northern iraq. >> this is a show of force for the french and a message france is fighting back. >> reporter: however, u.s. officials say there are plans to hit new targets that had once been off-limits, installations previously considered part of the civilian infrastructure, isis relies on to run the territory it occupies. until now civilian targets have been limited to the oil facilities isis uses to generate an estimated $1 million a day in black market oil sales. u.s. officials say those strikes have been ineffective, causing damage that could be repaired within a day or two. two weeks ago the u.s. began a bombing campaign designed to knock out oil facilities for six months to a year. last night american a-10s and ac-130 gun ships destroyed 116 tanker trucks in syria after first dropping leaflets and conducting strafing runs to
4:17 am
more strikes against more targets will increase the risk of civilian casualties, especially since u.s. officials now expect russia to increase its own bombing campaign against isis. scott? >> david martin at the pentagon. david, thank you. in a story for "60 minutes," we spoke with two survivors of the attacks, mark colclough witnessed the shooting at a cafe, and a man named francois, who did not want us to use his last name, suffered a grazing llet wound from the e sic hall massacre. [ gunfire ] >> i heard the gunshots, about ten. he shot in my direction, so i just laid down on the floor, like head on the ground, and then that's how i felt the bullets in my back. >> can you show me where you were hit?
4:18 am
>> so i was shot here on the back just below my shoulder, and the bullet came out here. >> so lucky to be alive. >> yeah, yeah. >> he shot three of them just like that. the three that were sitting outside he s st very quickly. then he shot into the car. then he moved into the cafe, looked right, panned right with his weapon, didn't shoot, panned left, duck, duck, duck, pause, duck, duck, duck, pause. paramedics were there very quickly. they ran into the cafe. >> when you went into the cafe, what did you see? >> wounded. and then toward the bar i could see on our left i could see there were three our four dead bodies lyiyi in front of the bar.
