and then they overranta krs th the hometown of saddam hussein. hundreds of thousands have fled the fighting, streaming across the desert to nearby iraqi's kird stan. amongest them we met a soldier in iraq's army who said he fought against them on tuesday. they're terrorists, he told us, and they have better weapons than us. but the truth is many iraqi officers have laid down their guns and run away from the battle zone, including these soldiers, deserting the fighting in kirkuk. the militants belong to the isis. the group began as an al qaeda afillality and is trying to establish a state based on

islamic law. just over the border fighting a regime, they carried out public beatings and summary executions but even all kai da has condemned isis for excessive violence. they now control an area and is moving between two countries. they come from across the middle east and also include hundreds of european muslims thought have been radicalized in syria. iraq's government says it is carrying out military air strikes against militant strongholds and they released video of that today. but there are also report this morning that isis is attacking the city of samarra, which is just 80 miles north of baghdad. norah? >> all right, holly. thank you. and now iraq's government is also asking the united states for air strikes against the militants. so far the obama administration is saying no. major garrett is at the white house where officials are

considering other aid for iraq. major, good morning. >> good morning. there is deep concern in the white house about the swift moving and brutal advance of these al qaeda-inspired insurgents across iraq, but there's no new policy to encounter that insurgency and the white house is conflicted over its military options. for now they'll focus on providing more help. nuri al maliki asked frp further protection. then officials said the emphasis would remain on providing military weaponry and equipment to the maliki government to fight the insurgents. here's the latest from last night. we'll continue to provide and as required increased assistance to the government of iraq to help build iraq's capacity to effectively and sustainably stop

isil's standard. it stands for one of the many umbrella terms for this insurgen insurgency, an insurgency the white house maintains is dangerous but has no idea how to confront. this morning historical political upset in virginia is forcing big changes on capitol hill. house majority leader eric cantor says he will resign his leadership post next month. on tuesday he lost to a political unknown in the republican congressional primary. nancy cordes is on capitol hill where the house gop is preparing for a shakeup. nancy, good morning. >> good morning, charlie. house republicans will vote whon should replace cantor as majority leader just one week from today. leaders are moving quickly because they want to avoid a prolonged power struggle, and we already know of two members who want the job. >> effective july 31st i will be stepping down as majority leader. >> cantor announced he will give

up his plum role setting the part's legislative agenda five months before he ee officially leaves office. >> we will continue to work and hopefully reciprocate so we can get to work. >> cantor's loss tuesday stunned house republicans who thought he would be the next house speaker. the race to replace him is well under way. the top contender is already on the leadership team, house majority whip kevin mccarthy from california who has cantor's vote. >> i will be backing him with my full support. >> veteran congressman pete sessions of texas has also thrown his hat into the ring. he says border security should be at the top of the agenda. >> i think administration needs to be prodded and reminded that our entire sovereignty of the united states is at risk if we do not secure our border. north, south, east, and west. >> reporter: other republicans considered a run but saw what

cantor went through and decided against it. >> democrats said you were too extreme. conservatives said you were too compromising. what advice you do have for your successor? >> maybe we had it right somewhere in the middle. i think this town should be about trying to strike common ground. >> leaving leadership as cantor well knows can sting. you have to give up your enormous suite of offices in the cap toll looking out on the national mall not to mention a number of staffers, security, and the driver who takes you everywhere you go. norah? >> fascinating. thank you. and pakistani officials say a suspected u.s. drone strike killed at least ten people this morning. the attack in northwest pakistan is the second straight near the border within 24 hours. at least three militants were killed last night. these are the first apparent u.s. drone strikes since christmas as they follow the strict rules on using the unm

unmanned craft. a house committee asked defense secretary chuck hagel wednesday why bergdahl was exchanged for guantanamo prisoners without telling congress first. he says this was the right deal at the right tight. margaret, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. defense secretary chuck hagel defended the swap saying the risk to sergeant bergdahl grew as the administration negotiated over an intense three days. in fact, he said the file decision was made just 96 hours before bergdahl's release, and the location of the swap was unknown until an hour beforehand. >> we had to stay focused on what the objective was, and that was getting an american p.o.w. back with the reassurances we needed to be able to say it would substantially mitigate the risk, and it was in the interest of our country. >> reporter: as for bergdahl's

current status, he didn't give details, but we did speak with a woman who shared with the "washington post" what she said are messages from bergdahl, this one sent three days before he disappeared. this life, he wrote, is too short to serve those who compromise value and its ethics. i'm done compromising. well, cbs hasn't seen these messages but we did speak to bergdahl's friend who said she's sharing them now, in her words, to protect him. norah? >> all right, margaret. thank you. and now to the pentagon scandal you haven't heard about. cbs news is following an investigation into a massive amount of your tax money wasted on the war in afghanistan. chip reid is in washington to show us what the defense department bought and why it's still sitting idle. good morning. >> good morning. the price tag for the american taxpayers on the war in afghanistan has been staggering and as the troops continue to withdraw, we're getting a clearer picture of what was never used and what is being left behind.

eight of these inflatable boating were bought by the pentagon in 2010 for $3 million. i were to be used by the afghan police to patrol a key river separating after gaffe stan from uzbekistan. but today they sit unused in a navy warehouse in virginia. >> it's like you gave your credit card to your teenaged daughter or son and never looked at the bills. >> what's going to happen to them? are they ever going to be used? >> they're probably going to be sold, sold for scrap or pennies on the dollar. >> reporter: more than $100 billion have been allocated for relief and reconstruction, but tracking all that money has been next to impossible. >> we don't even have a list from dod of where they spent the money. we have no centralized list of where the taxpayer money went in afghanistan. >> reporter: he points to other examples such as an estimated $600 million of these aircraft

sitting on runways in kabul and germany, and this massive $34 million command center in helmand. >> it is the best constructed building i've seen in afghanistan and will probably be leveled. >> leveled. never used. >> never used. the afghans can't use it. they can't maintain it. >> reporter: in a statement to cbs news, the department said they strive to ensure every reconstruction project is executed in a manner that makes use of the dollar. it brings with it many challen e challenges. >> congress has also asked pentagon for an itemized list for the spending of the war effort. charlie? >> thanks. the church is on for the killer of a catholic priest in arizona. he was found shot to death in the living quarters of a phoenix church last night.

another priest was hurt. it appears to be the result of a botched robbery. and in a rare interview pope francis proves he's willing to stray from it. they talk about his modern take on the papacy including his rejection of the closed popemobile which was created after the attempted assassination of john paul ii in 1981. he explained the decision in his native spanish saying i am not going to greet people and tell them i love them from the inside of a sardine can even if it's made of glass. it's a wall, and i can't live that way. the 77-year-old joked saying, besides, at my age, i don't have much to loose. francis never expected to be elected pope. in fact, he said he went to the conclave with a very small suitcase expecting to return to argentina as soon as possible.

while one might be thinking he might be rooting for his home country in the world cup which kicks off today, francis said he is staying neutral. he said he's keeping his word. >> and the pope did record a video message to be played before today's opening match. he says football can teach important lessons that can help overcome greed and racism. investigators are studying surveillance video of a couple who went on a dead will i shooting rampage in las vegas. they're on the floor of walmart pointing their guns at each other and the police closed in. police now say amanda miller did not kill her husband. >> in regard to the male suspect, the cause and manner of death ruled by the coroner is a homicide as a result of police gunfire. >> the millers killed two officers and a walmart customer on sunday. police say detectives talked to the millers at least three times

simpson's ex-wife nicole brown simpson and ron goldman. >> the murders of nicole brown simpson and ron goldman were brutal and shocking but when o.j. simpson became the prime suspect it launched america's fascination with reality tv. >> for the audience, this was entertainment. as sad as that sounds, it's the truth. >> reporter: he was the main anchor for cnn's coverage of the trial. >> this was the first high-profile case that was televised wall to wall, gavel to gavel, and you had a man who was a legend, a sports icon, beloved. people loved o.j. simpson. >> reporter: t.v. cameras were live when police searched his home. cameras were waiting for simpson to turn himself in to police when his attorney robert shapiro made a surprising plea.

form of entertainment. >> were most people surprised by the verdict? >> i can say we were shocked. we can, of course, remember back to the newspaper coverage where we would see those photographs and it looked like it was split by racial lines, that you had african-american people cheering and caucasian people look like they were crying. but the truth is for us, those of us who had covered that trial day in and day out, that when that jury had come back in four hours, then they impounded the verdict until the following morning, there was no doubt that that verdict was going to come in -- >> -- not guilty. >> that was what was so shocking. >> isn't that what upset people that after nine months of listening to evidence, you come back after four hours. how can people take it seriously if you come back in four hours. >> i remember saying a n a lot of cases it takes a jury three

hours to know what to order for lunch. nine months of trial and dozens of witnesses. i think that's what was most shocking. people watching said you could understand a not guilty verdict, but to give it so quickly. >> go ahead. >> i was go ing to say, 20 years later ochl j. simpson is in jail for something else. >> yes. >> many people believe he was guilty. whoo did he get off? >> i think the case was mismanaged from the police and prosecution from the very beginning. you have to remember the history in los angeles about how the police felt about the minority community and how the minority community felt about the police. so it was not inconceivable at all that there may have been a planted glove. it was not inconceivable that they were framing o.j. simpson. to the rest of the world, it may have seemed impossible. the other thing was with this dream team of defense lawyer, the key evidence, the blood evidence, the dna, it was

absolutely massacred by the brilliance of peter who understood. and, of course, you can never negate the charisma of both. johnnie cochran who said if it doesn't fit, you must acquit. >> how much does the role of celebrity and race figure into it? >> race came into it late. it was accidental. the fact that mark feurman, suc a sig kaptd one. >> conversations were used. >> it allowed him to attack a critical witness but celebrity was the overarching concern. >> before we leave, what has o.j. simpson said since then in intervening yearsing what happened whabd he did and did not do.
