the fda relevant medical society's and our customers regarding these concerns." that was the company the statement.omar thank. and american officials saying up to 25,000 iraqi soldiers will be part of a spring offensive to retake mosul, the city fell to isis in june. in istanbul and whether the forces will be ready for the fight. holly, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. we were in iraq earlier this month, and senior figures there told us a spring offensive on mosul is simply unrealistic. some of them say the earliest they could be ready is in the fall. an american military official says 10,000 iraqi soldiers have gone through training with the u.s. and its coalition partners and they'll lead the push on isis this spring backed by u.s.-led air strikes. just outside of mosul, another

3,000 men, mostly policemen, are being trained to help retake iraq's second largest city. but very few have any fighting experience, and they've told us they're still short of weapons. also involved will be these kurdish soldiers known as the peshmerga. by far the strongest fighting force in northern iraq. from a hilltop overlooking mosul in october, they showed us territory they've clawed back from the extremists but as members of an ethnic minority kurdish fighters will be views as foreign invaders if they try to recapture mosul alone, and this month their commanders told us they're still massively outgunned by isis. what kind of equipment does isis have that you lack? >> isis seized weapons from both syria and the iraqi army. so we are talking about at least

1,500 humvees. you're talking about 155 howitzer americans. talking armored vehicles talking about tanks, heavy machine guns. loads of ammunition. >> reporter: if this mosul offensive does go ahead in the spring it's still not clear whether it will involve u.s. military advisers who are already on the ground in iraq. charlie? >> holly, thanks. ahead, fighting terrorism online while some lawmakers are calling on social media sites to take more responsibility in the battle against isis. in a is in our next half hour. two trains collided overnight in switzerland leaving at least five passengers injured. it happened in a small town 20 miles north of zurich. a high-speed train slammed into a commuter train forcing one of the cars off the track. passengers say the commuter train had just left the station. it is not clear why this accident happened. in las vegas this morning a

right now it's time to show you some of this morning's headlines. a fraternity is suinge inginge inging wesleyan university. the new policy was a result of highly publicized issues at frat houses including allegations of sexual assault. depp to kappa epsilon says it's a case of political correctness gone wrong. youtube is launching a new app for children. it's called youtube kids. the free app is expected to feature episodes of popular tv shows for preschoolers like "sesame street." it will also provide kid friendly con ten from the youtube channels. this app will be released on monday. the "chicago tribune" ruled the cubs can go ahead with plans to install signs in the outfield at wrigley. businesses nearby explained signs and video boards would

block views. the rooftop operators must sell tickets to cub games without guaranteed view when the season opens on april 5th. new york magazine says the deep freeze in new york city has brought a rare visitor, the snowy owl. it normally lives in the arctic but recent subfreezing temperatures in the big apple are perfect for this feathered predator. >> beautiful. >> beautiful eyes. >> wow look at that. >> i think so too. since december about seven snowy owls have been spotted mostly in queens and brooklyn. and list up my friends, "the new york post" shows us what's inside a $150,000 gift bag. it krofs a couple's love shot. sexual aids valued at $5,000. >> details. >> i can't say them on television. three nights at a tuesday can villa worth $1,500 and a session with the founder of enigma life. that's valued at $20,000.

the swag bags go to nominees who don't win on sunday. charlie, which of those from the grab bag would you like? >> three nights at a tuesday can villa. >> gayle, which one of those would you like. >> three nights at a tuesday can villa. i'm no dummy. >> together. >> together. >> together. >> are you going to get a gift bag since you go? >> no no it's only for the nominees. i am not a nominee. >> let's talk about the oscars shall we? >> i'm going for team selma. >> we are joined now with the predictions. >> i'll meet you in tuscany any time. >> do you want this $5,000 sexual aid? >> that's okay. i already saw "fifty shades of grey." >> what a movie. >> where should we start, dave, in terms of what's coming up? >> start with the big one, best

picture which is the tightest race i can recall in the 20 years i've been following the oscars very closely. if i had to make a prediction right now, i think "boyhood" is going to win although a lot of people saying "birdman" could win. "boyhood" was the critical favorite. "birdman" picked up the screen actor's guild, producer's guild. at the british version of the oscars it only won one award, although it was nominated for nine. the oscars are an older voting body. i'm wondering if "birdman" will be too cool and too edgeyedgy. it's very close. >> is "american sniper" coming up fast on the outside? >> it's certainly been the most exciting thing to happen to the oscar race this year the fact that "american sniper" got in there. i don't think it's going to win any of the major categories that it's nominated for.

it could win in the sound categories which would be a nice nod to the technical achievement of the film. i don't see it really challenging "boyhood" or birdman" at this point. >> i still have keep hope alive. >> selma will win for best song no question. >> i think that, too. let's go to best actor category eddie redmayne. >> if they do want to go for the more career achievement aspect of things they can vote for michael keaton. by the way, interestingly if michael keaton wins he's the second oldest best actor winner ever. which is strange to think because he looks so good. >> how old is he? how old is he? >> he's about 63. >> okay. >> and henry fonda's the oldest one. >> what about best actress? >> that one is a sure thing, julianne moore for "still

alice." a movie they were still filming when some of the others came out, grand budapest hotel came out in march. they had not begun filming "still alice." she's up there with glenn close as far as actresses working today who have been nominated so many times but have never actually won. this is her fifth nomination. she will win an oscar on sunday no doubt. >> best director? >> between richard linklaiter and another nominee. >> can't wait for that to see who's wearing what. that's so you, isn't it? >> my first red carpet. >> my tongue firmly in my cheek. dave carter always good to see you. thank you. malcolm x shared a unique

tomorrow marks 50 years since the assassination of malcolm x. charismatic and controversial leader was gunned down while giving a speech here in new york city. vladimir duthiers spoke to his family about a complicated legacy. good morning. >> good morning. mall malcolm x was a revolutionary. for but attallah shabazz, he was a father. she sees his vision playing out all around us. >> harlem has been a classic town. >> reporter: today attallah shabazz is a writer teacher, mentor and her daughter still trying to clarify her father's place in history. we took a walk with her in his

old neighborhood in the street named after her father. >> it's nice that lenox is name after my father. >> reporter: i'm sure he'd be embarrassed. >> he'd be shy about it yes. >> reporter: this is the malcolm x americans remember. >> it is time for you and me to fight for ourselves. >> reporter: the controversial leader preaching equality by any means necessary. >> your father's message, do you feel it's been misinterpreted over the years? >> oh, sure. i understand people needing to hold on to the strength they associate to him however, they do him a disservice injustice, when they excerpt him and redefine them in their way and not as he is. >> reporter: here in harlem malcolm was the voice of black frustration. >> has integration solved the problem or made it worse? >> reporter: critics labeled him a radical militant supporters said he was uncompromising in his mission. >> to list the struggle for freedom of the negro in this

country to the level of civil rights to the level of human rights. >> reporter: that's what he told a young cbs reporter named mike wallace, in search of the true malcolm x, of the message and the man. wallace filed his first report in 1959. >> while people don't realize how frustrated negroes have become. >> but they are also of the opinion that no good can possibly come from violence. >> if they are of that opinion, mike, if you think that the powder keg that's in your house is going to explode under certain conditions either you have to remove the powder keg or remove the condition. >> reporter: his message was deeply tied to the circumstances of his own life. as a youth, his father's murder left him hardened and angry. at age 20 malcolm went to prison for larceny. it was there he converted to a growing movement of black separatism. the nation of islam. >> if the government can't defend us what should we do? if the government doesn't want us to pick up a rifle, then defend us. go find out who bombed the church in birmingham alabama.

>> reporter: in his 30s he went through yet another transformation. after a trip to mecca in 1964 he publicly embraced working with anyone who was willing to work with him. >> you have changed your attitude about the white man in the united states to some extent. >> well, i broadened my scope. travel broadens your scope, gives you a wider understanding. >> reporter: he revealed all of this to wallace, who throughout his life remained close to malcolm's family. >> they were brethren, cared for each other off record despite professions. when they met they realized they had much more in common and people would have publicly imagined or presumed so. >> reporter: when malcolm broke away from islam it earned him many enemies within the group. >> are you not, perhaps, afraid of what might happen as a result of making these revelations. >> oh, yes. i probably am a dead man already. >> suddenly had happened on february 21st, 1965 three

members from the nation of islam shot malcolm while he was giving a speech in upper manhattan's audubon ball room. >> reporter: a dozen shots. >> he was just 39 years old. >> there are few of us that get to call upon each other on these various dates and get to experience what we've inherited in terms of our relative's legacy and the ache in their absence. >> reporter: while he predicted his own death he could not have foreseen how his vision would play out or when america might see its first black president. >> men and women who fought or our freedoms most certainly expected to see a black president. i think that it took 40 years is the crime. so the question becomes not for those who have been marginalized but for those who are in a position to do better do more. what are we waiting on? >> reporter: these are the questions shabazz never stopped asking. >> do you still have conversations with your father? >> oh, godding with all the

time. look, you can't be that potent and then be gone. >> one of the things she spoke about is the fact that you can either be a malcolm x fan or a martin luther king fan but there's room for both. >> for both. good she's speaking out about her dad. >> thank you so much. up next, the most unforgettable moments of the week. out. ahead, the most

there she is. now you can meet the woman behind the voice and see what a director does. go to cbsthismorning.com. >> i like how she says cue norah, cue charlie.

episode of "star wars"? >> i have to correct a mistake charlie said earlier. >> i should have known better. >> you should have known better because you made the mistake. >> we're out of corn flakes. after you. pick up your socks. pick up your socks, f.u. it took me days to figure out it f.u. is felix ung ger. >> it's either pink bunny or no bunny at all. >> no bunny at all. >> all that -- >> all that. >> all that -- >> if i'm the first person to set foot on mars -- >> you're going. >> -- i'm going and i'm not coming back. >> i have people to suggest. >> -- and all that matters. >> a woman who shall remain nameless from 1993.
