♪ do you believe in life after love ♪ ♪ i can feel something inside me say ♪ >> announcer: from abc news, this is "world news now." what you're doing right there is just as much singing as cher did last night. >> cher can do anything she wants. >> absolutely. doesn't matter. of course what a way to get into your monday with the soundtrack of cher. >> i love it. we should always have a soundtrack to start off the show. >> absolutely. on a monday to help you ease into it. >> a big night at the billboard music awards. we are going to get into all of that in just a little bit. >> and a big day ahead for the president, who is arriving in israel this morning after addressing leaders from the muslim world at a summit in saudi arabia. >> the president called on dozens of countries to join the united states in the battle against extremism. but his speech marked a striking shift in tone from his campaign rhetoric. abc's jonathan karl was there. >> reporter: donald trump and the muslim world. an image that not long ago would have been impossible to imagine.

here in the birthplace of islam. the man who had portrayed muslims as the problem offering a message of unity in the fight against terrorism. >> this is not a battle between different faiths, different sects, or different civilizations. this is a battle between barbaric criminals who seek to oobliterate human life and decent people, all in the name of religion. this is a battle between good and evil. >> reporter: in the audience the leaders of more than 50 muslim countries, virtually the entire islamic world. a remarkable moment for the man who just a year ago said -- >> i think islam hates us. there's something -- there's something there that there's a tremendous hatred there. >> reporter: and for the candidate who had proposed a total and complete shutdown of all muslims entering the u.s., a prohibition that would have applied to everyone in this

audience. >> i stand before you as a representative of the american people to deliver a message of friendship and hope and love. >> reporter: but he did issue a challenge. >> a better future is only possible if your nations drive out the terrorists and drive out the extremists. drive them out of your communities. drive them out of your holy land. and drive them out of this earth. >> reporter: the president's call to action notably left out a signature phrase, which he had long ago insisted was crucially important. >> radical islamic terrorism. >> reporter: it wasn't just semantics. trump had hammered both barack obama and hillary clinton for failing to say radical islamic terrorism. now he portrayed the enemy as a godless enemy of all religions, including islam. >> religious leaders must make

this absolutely clear. barbarism will deliver you no glory. piety to evil will bring you no dignity. >> reporter: the president travels from saudi arabia to israel where he'll be meeting with israeli leaders and palestinian leaders. it's not the beginning of peace talks. these will be separate meetings. but the administration hopes the momentum they saw here will eventually lead to a restart of peace talks and the big goal the president has, which is a middle east peace deal. jonathan karl, abc news, riyadh. >> our thanks to jonathan there. and the president barely touched on women's rights, but his daughter took up the issue. ivanka trump met with saudi arabian women telling them their country's progress is encouraging. women in that country only recently got the right to vote but still aren't allowed to drive cars. first lady melania trump visited a woman's business center where her advice -- where she offered some advice on work-life balance.

now, both women decided not to adhere to the custom of covering their heads. women and men are segregated in saudi arabia. as we mentioned, women aren't allowed to drive, and they can't leave the country without the permission of a male relative. the head of the house oversight committee expects to speak with former fbi director james comey today. congressman jason chaffetz says he wants to see the notes comey reportedly kept on his meetings with president trump as he investigated russian election meddling. he also expressed concern over a report that the president called comey a nut job during a meeting with russian diplomats. comey has agreed to testify before the senate intelligence committee after memorial day. maybe the vice president mike pence didn't necessarily think graduates would literally take his advice. he told them to stand up for what they believe in. and dozens did. pence was about to deliver the commencement address at notre dame, talking about freedom of speech and the right to air unpopular views, but before he'd said more than thank you, about 150 graduates and family members got up and walked out. the former indiana governor did not comment on that silent

protest. and pence's predecessor was also giving a commencement address over the weekend at tiny colby college in maine. joe biden said everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. he told the graduates to stay engaged despite the ugliness of the last election and the divisiveness. he followed and promised that this too shall pass. >> but i assure you it's temporary. i assure you it's transitory. the american people will not sustain this attitude. and now is the time for engaged leadership. >> biden reminded everyone that elections do have consequences and the penalty good people pay for not being involved in politics is being governed by people worse than themselves. >> reporter: north korea's raising new concerns this morning, calling its latest missile test a success. that missile fired yesterday was a medium-range solid fuel ballistic missile, which is harder for the u.s. to detect. south korea and the u.s. believe

the launch provided the north with some meaningful data to improve its weapons program. it's also believed north korea's goal is a missile that could reach the mainland united states. today we'll hear from nba player enes kanter about his weekend ordeal in romania. the turkish-born oklahoma city forward was detained when his passport was ruled invalid. kanter claims it's because he's been outspoken against turkish president erdogan. kanter arrived in the u.s. yesterday. he posted a picture on twitter. he's speaking to reporters in a conference call today. new overnight, we've learned three of five inmates who escaped in alabama have been found. all five vanished from a jail about 60 miles outside montgomery, alabama late saturday night. not sure exactly how they got away but one local tv station reporting that one suspect turned himself in yesterday. two others were captured. the two still on the run are considered armed and dangerous. jury selection begins today in bill cosby's sex assault trial. cosby is expected to be in that

pittsburgh courtroom as lawyers choose the 12 jurors and six alternates. the group will have to decide whether he drugged and molested a temple university employee at his home. cosby claims the encounter was consensual. the trial is set to begin june 5th. drenching rain is swamping much of the south central u.s. this morning following a long weekend of nasty damaging weather. southern indiana was especially hard hit by rushing water turning streets into fast-moving rivers and engulfing entire neighborhoods. and in alabama flash floods washed out highways, stranding some people in their cars. the water was so deep in some spots they were almost unrecognizable. >> that's supposed to be a parking lot. >> once you usually enter the water it's too late to turn around. you're inundated before you know. unfortunately we have more bad news. it's going to take some time before cleanup can even begin because the stormy weather is here to stay for a while. >> accuweather's meteorologist cam tran joins us now with a look at the forecast, and it's going to be a busy day and week. cam, good morning. >> good morning, diane and

kendis. an upper-level system will bring the threat for severe weather across the texas panhandle. watch out in amarillo and lubbock while further east we're watching the concern for flash flooding. a flash flood remains in effect for the i-10 corridor east of houston stretching to pensacola. stubborn frontal boundary that could bring anywhere between two to four inches of rainfall today while out west we are looking at some record challenging heat from seattle all the way to san diego. diane and kendis, back to you. >> well, thank you, cam. and here's a lesson about getting rid of your stuff at a garage sale or flea market. don't do it. unless and until you know the real value of what you're selling. >> ah. a british woman picked up this little thingamajig at a flea market 30 years ago. she paid a little over ten bucks for it. >> yeah. overpriced at ten bucks. >> she wore it all the time. and she assumed it was just costume jewelry obviously. until one day a jeweler noticed it and said it might not be costume jewelry after all.

>> it actually turned out that it's a 26 carat cushion cut white diamond from the 19th century. worth about $450,000. it's going up for auction in july. >> 26 carats? >> $450,000 i ain't got that kind of benjamins. no. how amazing. >> i just love the idea that she was wearing this ring every day -- >> cleaning her place. >> thinking nothing of it whatsoever. >> just imagine if she had lost it and then learned years later that this thing was worth all that -- >> i wonder if any of her friends made fun of her. why are you wearing that cracker jack ring? whoops. coming up, a sea lion. this is a scary one. >> yes, it is. >> watch as the sea lion drags the girl into the water. hear why port officials are blaming her parents. >> and we're going to go live to las vegas.
