toyota. let's go places! morning." president obama says a terror attack in san bernardino, california, shows terrorism is in a new phase. in a prime time speech last night, he said america will overcome the threat. >> the president's address was his first from the oval office in five years. he laid out his plan to defeat isis, also known as isil. he also urged americans to remember the country's values. >> we will destroy isil and any other organization that tries to harm us. our success won't depend on tough talk or abandoning our values, or giving into fear. that's what groups like isil are we cannot turn against one another. by letting this fight be defined as a war between america and islam.

isil want. isil does not speak for islam. they are thugs and killers, part of a cult of death. and they account for a tiny fraction of a more than a billion muslims around the world, including millions of patriotic muslim americans who reject their hateful ideology. >> major garrett is at the white house and new insight on why the president spoke last night. >> reporter: the views are in and lukewarm to be charitable and the white house was bracing for precisely that. why did the president give an oval office address that had no news or initiatives or ideas or military strategies against isis? the genesis of the speech started saturday here at the white house after the president met with his national security team, it was a consensus that this administration was losing control, losing grip on the entire national conversation about isis and the president needed to get involved in that conversation to try to
7:05 am
first, to convey to the nation that the campaign against isis aggressive. there are more u.s. bombing runs and the british are now bombing in syria, there are troop commitments from germany and there is much greater intelligence sharing with the french. the president also wanted to address the gun control argument. even though the political climate on capitol hill was republicans in control of the house and senate remains hostile. the president believes the fact pattern in san bernardino strengthens not weakens his gun control argument and wanted to make that case. thirdly, most importantly, when you talk to people at the white house, the president believes the country could turn on itself and this message of tolerance for muslim americans is not just about that. pure tolerance. but it is a counterterrorism strategy. the president believes it is crucial that this country maintain good solid working relationships with the muslim community in this country, not just as an matter of tolerance, but as a matter of counterterrorism success, being able to detect and fill at any
7:06 am
terrorist attacks before they start. there was a good deal of conversation about whether this president should give this address. today or possibly tonight. but the president wanted the largest prime time audience he could find, sunday was it. he knows the reviews are tepid but this president has long relied on speeches and ignored short-term analysis to play what we always talk about here at the white house as president obama's long game, whether it's rhetoric or strategy to defeat isis. >> major, thank you very much. investigators have new information this morning on the suspects in the san bernardino case. syed rizwan farook and his wife tashfeen malik killed 14 people and wounded 21 others. officials say they got their assault weapons from a former neighbor. carter evans is outside of the shooting in san bernardino looking at why and how the couple carried out this attack. good morning, carter. >> reporter: good morning. the inland regional center where

a large chunk of the president's speech focused on values rather than any new policy. he urged americans not to reject an entire religion. >> we cannot turn against one another by letting this fight be defined as a war between america and islam. that, too, is what groups like isil want. isil does not speak for islam. they are thugs and killers, part of a cult of death. and they account for a tiny fraction of a more than a billion muslims around the world. including millions of patriotic muslim americans who reject their hateful ideology. but just as it is the responsible of muslims around the world to root out misguided ideas that lead to radicalization, it is the responsibility of all americans, of every faith, to reject discrimination.
