7:08 am
although he notified washington in advance. still, it happened on donald trump's watch. >> if you look at what's happened over the last eight weeks and compare that to really what's happened over the last eight years, you'll see there's a tremendous difference. >> reporter: as shown in this 2003 test, the bomb is dropped from an mc-130 aircraft using a parachute to drag it out of the cargo bed, the sled detaches and the bomb falls to earth with fins steering it to within ten yards of its target. this test clearly shows the pressure wave it sets off. the bomb was developed specifically to attack cave complexes and for its pure terror effect. u.s. and afghan soldiers are at the cave complex now inspecting the damage. a u.s. military official said the aim of the attack was to collapse the tunnels and caves. just last week an american soldier was killed in the same area when isis fighters popped out of the cave and ambushed him. >> thanks, david. cbs news senior national

contributor michael morell is a forer deputy director of the cia. good morning. >> good morning. >> one point on david's eporting is it possible that this was also to send a message orthorth korea? on't don't think the u.s. intended it that way. i think it was used because in here was a military purpose. ight think it might be seen by kim jong-un as a message. >> what are the capabilities of north korea as we speak? >> they have nuclear weapons. ucleare tested nuclear weapons five times. d number of times successfully. five have short-range and mes.um-range ballistic missiles that are capable of reaching ully. targets. they have deployed an icbm that's capable of reaching the targets.tal united states. >> being an intercontinental -- >> capable of reaching the united states that they've never tested and we think they've had capa enough time to make a nuclear weapon to a missile. so the threat is now, right. it's not two years from now. >> they can reach us. we havhave to assume that, yes.
7:10 am
>> the threat of them having he threaweapons is what, beyond reaching us now? > so it's use, it's use against south korea, japan, us. its sail to another country. and it's loose nukes in a situation where the regime collapses and who controls those nuclear weapons. wh there's three different threats. e diffee is our help here? is china of assistance? the president has been talking to xi jinping and yet at the ance?time it appears that relationship is more complicated than the president previously understood. >> in if you're going to squeeze north korea economically china has to do it because they're 80% of their trade. 80o issues, one is china's he's tgness to squeeze them. willingars an unstable nuclear armed north korea more than they fear a nuclear armed north korea. they don't want to bring about instability. the chinese keep on making that inst thint. if then the second shissue if e did squeeze them would north

korean behavior change, i doubt about. >> the north koreans tend to do doubting provocative around the >> theay celebration of the founder this weekend. cateurse we expecting here? >> so i would expect, based on everything we're hearing a the ear test. xpectipossible there could be a wssile test to go along with the nuclear test. >> why do you think this crisis alon >> why toing now? c i think that's a good question. i think there's two issues. we we have a new president and kim jong-un is trying to sidentnge him, is trying to get im back to the negotiating gete. remember, barack obama ignored the north koreans for eight rears. did not run to the negotiating everyevery time there was a provocation. kim jong-un wants to get back to a situation where we give them wants ten they do something bad. e we gen we are also making it worse, right, with our bluster and by sending aircraft carriers ter anre, we're raising the crisis. it's best to just ignore this guy and to deter him from ever using these weapons or selling them and to build our defenses.
7:12 am
>> so on that note, you say that defens kim jong-un may look at the deployment of this so-called mother of all bombs as a sort of demontration of u.s. military might. it sounds like that bomb was hatst moved into afghanistan by the obama administration. how long has this been in the works? nistanthis has been -- we've used bombs like this before, work in vietnam and in afghanistan, nothing ever this big. but it's, as david martin said, it's designed to deal with these carve complexes and that's where s.e isis guys have been hiding. ngss been there for a while. approved for use. omes is not some new strategy on fhe part of the trump administration. >> we had a battlefield commander general nicholson who could make the decision without wh aving to take it to the vingagon. >> yes. >> yes.re's a balance here. there's a really important herece here. between killing isis on the kill battlefield in afghanistan and then driving people to peop extremists. we had former president karzai overnight criticizing the use of rnighteapon for that very

delayed apology from united, how does a company of this kind of size make so many poor decisions? >> well, you have to figure out whether this is a communication problem, a judgment problem. an education problem or simply a stupid decision. and in this case, it is -- it looks like it's all of them. >> yes. all of the above. >> yeah. i'm waiting to see who actually loses their job over this. the person who made that decision to remove the passenger is clearly not qualified and capable to work in an airline and neither is that person's supervisor. second, you used the language that we -- i will quote you, that we will make this right. that's actually not what the apology says. it says we will work to make this right. i don't understand that. because that puts some distance between the airline and actually doing it. let me give you a second example. i promise you which is in that apology, should have been my commitment as ceo and our commitment as united. don't make a promise.
8:07 am
nobody trusts people who do that. i think the airline is still missing the point that it has to not only say that it takes responsibility it has to show that. >> they should have done that immediately? >> yeah, it's obvious, charlie when the video is released it's over and done. and the apology isn't just enough to say, hey, we got it wrong. it's also -- it has to communicate what we are going to do in the future to get this right. it has to communicate i'm going to make you whole again. >> you don't want to see this lawsuit if you're united airlines. what do they do to make sure that this lawsuit is settled? >> they need a commitment at they'll have new policies by the 30th of april. frankly, my suggestion would be to allow that passenger to fly free on united for the rest of his life. that is a legitimate way to show how deep this mistake was. how embarrassing it was to that passenger. and it says to every passenger that this company will sacrifice

something in itself to make it right for every passenger going forward. >> frank, we have talked about this story every day this week on this program. this video has been viewed hundreds of millions of times in china, for example. what does corporate america not understand about social media and viral video? what do they need to learn? >> the problem is most of these senior management people don't live on youtube or twitter. someone else does it for them and that's a mistake. they have to be among the passengers, among their customers to really feel them. and if i were this ceo, i would have gone out and started doing focus groups. i would have gone to every airport that united flies and i would have invited passengers to vent their frustration so you can hear it firsthand. i truly believe that there's a distance between the senior management and the people that they wish to serve. their employees, their customers, ad the communities that they operate in. but that's going to change. and every company needs to hold a crisis management seminar with
8:09 am
the very worst thing that they could ever think of happening, because i promise you whatever you can imagine, the actual case will be even worse. >> frank, shifting quickly to the sean spicer situation. he apologized for the comments we played when he said that hitler did not use chemical weapons. is that apology enough? >> i know that for some -- i'm one of them. i lost significant numbers of my family, that when you hear the word hitler you immediately think of gas chambers. so this is about the worst mistake that you possibly can make. that said, i have watched him over the last 48 hours and he's clearly tortured by this. and to watch his response, he gets it. the problem or the challenge is that it is the toughest job on the face of the earth. imagine trying to face 50 people who want to take you down every day. so i give him credit for going out there, by it's going to take some time for him to restore the credibility that he needs. >> crisis communications.
