good morning. breaking news. terror raid. [ gunfire ] >> special forces in france launch a massive operation targeting the alleged mastermind behind the paris attacks. at least two suspects dead, including a woman who blew herself up as police stormed an apartment. seven others taken into custody, but did abdelhamid abaaoud manage to slip away? while here at home bomb threats forced two air france planes from the u.s. to paris to be diverted overnight, leaving

wednesday, november 18, 2015. >> announcer: from nbc news, this is "today" with matt lauer and savannah guthrie live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. >> and good morning, everyone. welcome to "today" on what is morning. >> we've got breaking news as we're coming on the air at this hour. a large-scale police operation aimed at the mastermind of the abdelhamid abaaoud. officials initially believed he was in syria, but clearly there is some suspicion he could in fact be very close by, possibly on the outskirts of paris. >> want to give you an idea of where this is all happening. it's in saint-denis, a suburb north of paris in some apartments that are actually about a mile from the soccer stadium that was attacked on friday. at least two people have been killed. seven others arrested. the siege lasting about seven hours. >> police say at least five officers have been wounded as well. let's get right to nbc's chief foreign correspondent richard

engel in that neighborhood this morning. richard, good morning, what are you seeing and hearing? >> good morning, savannah. that raid took place on the street behind me. officials say they have arrested seven people. they cannot confirm at this stage if the alleged mastermind of the attack was one of the people, but they certainly knew that they were going to find gunfire, find resistance when they came here because when we arrived we saw the police ready for battle. [ gunfire ] >> reporter: amateur video captured some of the heavy automatic gunfire that erupted when elite french forces raided an apartment outside paris this morning. the main target, officials say, was the alleged mastermind of the paris attacks. but as the raid began, a woman in the apartment blew up a suicide vest. we arrived a short while later. police here still seem very tense. they have sealed off some of the area. they are shining search lights on to the buildings, down the alleys.

there's a helicopter above. this raid does not seem over yet. police ordered residents to stay inside. anyone who approached was told in no uncertain terms to back away. neighbors, many of them muslim immigrants, were evacuated by police and searched. we stopped abdul al jazeeri rushing down the street. he said in arabic he witnessed the whole thing. i saw the raid. 20 cars pass by here and then five minutes later the shooting started, he said. you heard the gunfire, i asked. i saw it with my eyes, he said. meanwhile, the police focused on one apartment on the third floor of this building. that, neighbors say, is the apartment where the raid's target were holed up. the main target, officials say, was abdelhamid abaaoud, the man they describe as mastermind behind the paris attacks, a belgian national and had gone to syria to join isis and period in a propaganda video. it seems he managed to sneak

pack into the country. as day was breaking, the raids seemed to be winding down. but then several explosions echoed through the streets. it's common in situations like this for police to use grenades or small charges in order to set off boobytraps that the suspects may have set up. police here remain on edge, occasionally moving aggressively to search the neighborhood. they are taking no chances. and the police cordon remains in place around the building where the raid took place. they have set up tarps so that forensic investigators can collect evidence. however, officials say that at least this raid for now is over. matt, savannah, back for you. >> richard engel, thank you very much e.we're joined by former pennsylvania governor tom ridge, the first secretary of security under president george w. bush

assistant director of the fbi. savannah and i were just talking, if this raid was target thing the alleged mastermind of the paris attacks. is it surprising that he's still in country or wouldn't it be that he would get out of the country? >> he was forward deployed on friday, if it appears and if there were other attacks that were imminent and raids that we saw here this morning seemed to be a result of that, then he may have been there to direct those as rell, as a general, forward on the battle line as opposed to more strategically back from syria or elsewhere. >> is it also possible, shawn, that he couldn't get out of the country, that once these attacks took place, it was much, much tougher as a proposition to get out of france? >> yeah. you know, paris, they should down people getting off the city. there were a lot of police actions and activities in the course of the days after friday,

deterred from getting out, but also i know police are looking at the implications of additional attacks, and they have been exploiting media, digital evidence, cell phones, doing interviews, trying to determine if there are other attacks imminent. this is a result of that. >> and just quickly before we get to secretary ridge, good news and bad news if you're living in paris. the good news is law enforcement officials are reacting quickly and rounding up more suspects. the bad news is in neighborhoods, in your very midst, there are still heavily armed terrorists, some with suicide vests. >> yeah. you're right, matt. you know, we've been talking all week about the value of tactical intelligence and the need tories deputy these types of attacks in advance, and police have been working, again, around the clock, not only in paris but in belgium and elsewhere. these people are living among us. they are hiding in plain sight. oftentimes in neighborhoods and communities. the citizens shouldn't be afraid, but they need to be aware and need to be vigilant and recognize that they are

oftentimes they are the eyes and ears to help identify for police anomalous behavior that might be indicative of other attacks. matt? >> shawn, thank you very much. >> a good segue to former ridge. you here this morning. we don't want to alarm people because perhaps europe's situation is a great deal worse than ours is. however, do you see things in here? what is waking you up in the middle the night these days? >> i think the tone of your question is precisely the right one. we're allowed to be anxious because america responded to those attacks, just like we responded to 9/11. there was horror. there was sorrow, and i think our anger went to rage and we want to hold folks accountable. some advice that shawn said. we've got eyes and ears in the neighborhoods. let's just simply be aware but let's also understand we've got a great intelligence capability and enormous law enforcement capability. one of the challenges we have here for the fbi to work more closely and collaboratively with

the hundreds of thousands of men and women, police forces in the state and local level. they don't have the manpower in washington, d.c. to do this, so let's empower them with information. >> we never want terrorists to be successful in carrying out an attack, but when they do carry something out, it opens a window for us. we learn things. >> rate. >> about their tactics and their structure and their organization. from where you're sitting what are we learning about isis based on what we're seeing in paris? >> well, we know they are not a jv team on contained. they are an am bawith rather significant reach. that's one of the reasons i would use for the state and locals, arm them with information. i wonder who would have happened had ed davis in boston been aware of the tsarnaev brothers in his presence. he found out about it after the bombs went off. i think there's a lot of learnings and one of the things we need to learn and really learn to appreciate is the hundreds of men and women back home. you have to start playing offense, matt.

got to start dealing -- a lot of discussion about refugees these days. there's a real serious problem. we've got to play defense at home, but the president can't let the clock run out. i know he loves basketball but it's not like running out clock. you run out clock when you're winning. we need to build a coalition to deal with this in syria as well >> you mentioned here at home there are stories relating to this taking operation here at home so stick around for a second. i want to ask you about those in a second. the security concerns are here. they were evident overnight when two air france planes bound for paris had to be diverted to other airports. nbc's janet vamian is in salt lake city where one of those jets was held for most of the night. janet, what can you tell us. >> reporter: matt, good morning. passengers are describing a frantic scene in the moments before that plane made an unscheduled landing here in salt lake city, and then once on the ground everything was inspected. the cargo, the baggage, and everyone from the passengers to the crew, to the pilots were questioned by the fbi. >> just days after the paris terrorist attacks, nerf racking

moments for u.s. passengers after bomb threats forced two air france flights bound for tuesday. flight 65 from los angeles took off about 7:00 p.m. about two hours into the trip diverted to salt lake city. >> fire command and off vehicles, the next aircraft on final is the emergency aircraft. >> reporter: shortly after flight 55 from washington's dulles airport also diverted to halifax, nova scotia. in a statement air france saying the flights were the subject of anonymous threats received by phone after their respective takeoffs. >> we're pretty much at a heightened level all the time at vigilant. >> they just said that there was going to be an emergency landing, very unnerving given the situation that has been going on over in france. >> reporter: elsewhere, a spirit airlines flight returned to its gate in baltimore after a female passenger became suspicious of a man watching a media report on his smartphone. four people were removed from

and in boston an unruly woman was taken off a british airways flight from london after trying to open an exit door mid-air. turns out she had too much to drink. air france flight 65 finally left salt lake airport at about 3:00 this morning. it is currently in the air bound for paris. the fbi now saying that there was no credible evidence that these were true threats against -- they were true threats but no credible evidence to back them up, but in this time of heightened concern no one was taking any chances. matt and savannah, back to you. >> janet, better be safe than sorry, thank you very much. >> and security remains ramped up across the country. nbc's national correspondent peter alexander is in washington peter, good morning. >> reporter: hey, savannah, good morning to you. this morning we're inside system. among those places bolstering security right now. means more canine sweeps and more random screenings for explosives at the entrances and

part of this new heightened state of alert. the isis threat warning the u.s is next has americans on edge. as washington's union station no known threat but stepped-up security no less. one maryland school district cancelling planned field trips to the nation's capital and on capitol hill two of the obama administration's top homeland officials privately briefed house members on the late intelligence about the paris attacks. >> there's no specific credible threat to the homeland, but i think it's clear that the primary concern of law enforcement and the intelligence community is the risk of copycats here at home. >> reporter: nbc news has learned 20 fingerprint images from the paris attackers have been provided to the u.s. by french authorities, but no matches with u.s. terror wash lists. intelligence officials tell nbc pete williams terror databases here contain nearly 2,800 names with connections to france, 800 of those with ties to syria and now under extra scrutiny. the fbi is also beefing up its surveillance of known terror

a senior u.s. official telling nbc news roughly 50 are getting the highest level of attention. and as for the ongoing fight over refugees, the number of governors who are either opposing or refusing or suspending the resettlement of syrians in this country has now grown to 31. almost all of them republicans. early this morning president obama again angrily blasted the republican rhetoric saying he can't think of a more potent recruitment tool for isis, and he mocked what he described as a fear of widows and orphans. matt and savannah. >> peter, thank you so much. we want to turn again to former homeland security secretary tom ridge. there is a technical piece of this as well, and another thing we're learning more and more about is how these terrorists are using encrypted channels. it's getting harder and harder for our good guys to listen in on the bad guys' conversations. there's even been a suggestion that silicon valley should get enforcement. what do you think about that, and is it even feasible? >> i think director comey has

imploring them to assist in dealing with. this one of the incredible ironies is that isis rejects the modern world and yet they use the modern world and the technology of the modern world and social media and the internet to spread their ideology, to recruit, et cetera, et cetera, so i think director comey is on the right path, and i hope that his nguyen minh trieties to silicon valley fall on receptive years because it's a real problem for the fbi and investigators globally. >> we had the color-coated security alert system. >> right. >> if you were in that system now, would we be at red alert in this country? i couldn't tell you because i don't know what the intelligence is. it was much malign the at the time, but i do think it was designed so that when they had specific credible information, either sector specific or nationally, they could use it to alert folks. what people never quite understood is every color represented a level of security.

since 9/11 is that we know, we know that intelligence of law enforcement communities if they get specific threats they will act and act immediately. it's the unknown. it is the unknown that's the real challenge right now, all the more reason to use the force multiplier and use the folks on the streets and in these communities, all the more reason to start playing offense. it's about time that somebody led a coalition. we've got some -- we've got -- we need leadership. it may have to come from president hollande. this president has spent more time criticizing republicans in their rejection of refugees. he ought to be providing leadership that historically the rest of the world looks to. our friends look to it. our foes want to understand where we are. right now there's no leadership from america. i think it's about time that the president understood he's commander in cheever until january of 2017. it's about time to lead. >> well, there are so many issues that are raised by these attacks in paris. thanks for being with us. thank you very much. >> now turning to the race for the white house. republican hopeful ben carson is pushing back this morning

foreign policy. nbc's hallie jackson has more on that. hallie, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, matt. at a time when the paris attacks have put national security front and center on the campaign trail, this morning ben carson and his campaign are really hitting back against a story that one of carson's own advisers thinks he's struggling to get a handle on foreign policy issues. this morning the doctor's on defense. ben carson under fire after reports he's failing on foreign policy. >> well, you know, i think that's a narrative that people want to paint. >> reporter: a "new york times" article quotes one of his national security advisers as saying carson can't get one iota of intelligent information about the middle east and needed weekly briefings on foreign policy, so, quote, we can make him smart. the comments come from drain claritch, a controversial figure

who was part of the iran-contra scandal. >> he's not my adviser, a person who has come in on a couple of our sessions to offer opinions about what is going on. >> reporter: carson has seemed to stumble on foreign policy before, like this moment during last week's debate on syria. >> we also must recognize that it's a very complex place. you know, the chinese are there as well as the russians. >> reporter: the white house shooting down the china claim and on sunday when carson was asked on fox news who he'd call first if the paris attacks happened on his watch, he refused to answer, three times. >> what would you are call first? burr who would you call first specifically? can you tell us who you would call first, sir, on the international scene? >> i would call for all of the arab states to be involved in this. >> reporter: candidate implying now those were gotcha questions. >> i know how that works and that's just silly. >> reporter: carson himself acknowledges he's on a learning curve when it comes to foreign policy, and while he may lack that kind of traditional political experience his

>> really refreshing to have somebody that's not a politician. >> reporter: the campaign tells me this morning they don't think any of this will hurt carson with voters, pointing out he gets daily briefings and that he's lived abroad and worked in or visited 57 countries. they are also drawing a comparison to another high-profile republican who they argue was wrongly slammed for his lack of foreign policy experience before he was elect the, ronald reagan. matt. >> all right, hallie jackson, hallie, thank you very much. >> let's turn to al. a lot of people dealing with severe weather. >> all across the country, and it will continue today. let's take a look at what happened yesterday in seattle and spokane. three people have been killed in the pacific northwest by falling trees, thousands without power. a real mess there and lots of flooding as well. we move to denver where they have been dealing with blizzard like conditions, upwards of 100 vehicles stalled on i-25. hundreds of flights cancelled at denver international airport. that blizzard is winding down. the wind storm is making its way east.

look what happened in memphis, ten see. lots of trees down. thousands without power this morning. as you see all the damage caused by falling trees. downed power lines and big, big problems there and there's more on the way. remember yesterday when i talked about how we'd see the line of storms developing. you can see right now there's the line of storms currently. take a look at what we showed you yesterday, the futurecast and look at how it lines up. exactly the same, and this is what we're going to be dealing with today as this system moves to the east, so as that front pushes east, we're going to see strong winds, rain sliding to the east. thursday, we're going to get some much-needed rain here in the northeast, but in the meantime, we've got flash flood watches in effect from new orleans to north carolina. 12 million people at risk. rainfall today one to two inches per hour and look for rain delays from mobile, atlanta on into roanoke, 3 to 5 inches there, and tomorrow look for airport delays from washington, d.c. up into new york, anywhere

from one to three inches of rain possible. believe me, i put this hair through a lot, every day. that's why i need total this is our home. and small business saturday... is more than just a day. it' s our day... to shop small at the places we love... with the people we love. for stuff we can' t get anywhere else. and food that tastes like home. because the money we spend here... can help keep our town growing. on small business saturday, let' s all shop small. for the neighborhood, the town, the home we love. on november 28th, shop small. >> jeremy: good morning. cold again. temperatures come out of the 20s and 30s late this morning. boston around 38 later today. tomorrow not as cold, but the trade-off more clouds. a few rain showers arriving after about 4:00 tomorrow. tomorrow morning is dry. mid-50s through the day tomorrow. some rain very early friday morning. but then clearing skies and a

it's 7:30 now on a wednesday morning, the 1th of november. we've got breaking news out of france at this hour. a massive terror raid carried out on the outskirts of paris, and the target of a seven-hour siege. the alleged mastermind of last friday's attacks, abdelhamid abaaoud. >> but this morning his whereabouts and fate still very much in question. "nbc nightly news" anchor lester holt is in zen we new developments on the raid. lester, good morning to you. >> reporter: all right. good morning, matt. president hollande saying we have neutralized terrorists here today referring to that

seven people taken into custody for questioning. two others were killed. police staging a dramatic raid about 4:30 in the morning here. they were met by a woman with a suicide vest. she detonated killing herself and injuring several of the police officers and killing a police dog as well. what followed for the next several hours were sporadic exchanges of gunfire that had people cowering in their apartments here as they listened to it. there were several explosions after about the third hour of this, and short ly ly thereafter police say the operation was over. they have acknowledged that they were targeting the people involved in friday's attack, including the possible mastermind, abdelhamid abaaoud. they have not said whether he is among those taken into custody or whether the two outstanding attackers that they have been looking for were part of this. they have only said they have been taken into questioning. fact that they were met with someone with a suicide vest, of course, leads to the unsettling speculation as to whether more

attacks were planned here in paris. this is a northeast suburb just of the outskirts of central paris, about half an hour from here. again, the operation is over as to who they have and what they have uncovered. we're still waiting to hear. we'll keep you posted and back to you now. >> lester holt in paris, lester, thank you very much. >> we've been talking this morning, the downing of the russian jetliner have really heightened concerns over security here at home and this morning we have a startling undercover investigation that's tied to airport security. today, national investigative correspondent jeff rossen is here with that. good morning to you. >> good morning. here we are just over a week to thanksgiving, the busiest travel season of the year. when you get to the airport and you hit the tsa security checkpoint, all know how it goes, right. laptops out, belts off, shoes off, all to make sure you aren't carrying any dangerous weapons, but this morning a new security breech sounding the alarm, and wait until you see what we were able to get through security.

breech. this man says he just carried a loaded gun on to a commercial flight in atlanta. the tsa never found it. >> had it laying in my backpack right here, and i said mother of god. >> reporter: that's right. a semiautomatic pistol. he says he forgot it was this his carry-on. completely missed by tsa workers on the x-ray machine. plane. for the safety of the people of we need to tighten up. first time. during the tsa's own internal investigation this year 67 out of 70 times someone was able to carry weapons and fake explosive undetected. rate. so could it really be that easy to smuggle banned items, potential weapons past screeners. my team and i fanning out across the country. we'll start at l.a.x. at the airport right now and i bought this swiss army knife,

and i'm going to put it inside of my bag right in the middle. right over there. and we're going to see if they find it. good news. they stopped me and confiscate the knife, but across the country in atlanta my producer jovanna has another swiss army knife. >> i've got the swiss army knife and i'll put it right here in my wallet. >> reporter: tsa screeners don't catch it. at the gate and look what got through. they didn't even pause on my bag. think that's bad? my producer josh has a pair of sharp scissors. >> got the scissors and the blade is longer than 4 inches and i'll stick them down here in my bag and zip it up. >> reporter: gets them right through, no problem. >> here we are at the gate and take a look. still have them. shocking. >> reporter: but the most disturbing security breech of all, these box cutters, the same weapon the 9/11 hijackers used. seen here on surveillance video walking through the checkpoint

now 14 years later watch what happens at newark. >> i've got a box cutter here and i'll close it up and put it deep inside my bag here and zip is up. here i am at gate about to board my flight and take a look. got it right through. so scary. >> reporter: yes. he just got a box cutter past the tsa. >> fundamentally tsa hasn't changed since 9/11. we make the same mistakes over and over. >> reporter: anthony roman is an aviation security expert. when you see our results, we were able to get three of the four banned items we wanted to get through through, undetected and no questions asked. as a family man myself how concerned should i be? >> you need to have a level of concern. these weapons are deadly weapons and can kill and we need to absolutely do a better job. >> reporter: the tsa declining our request for an on-camera interviews instead telling nbc

for any prohibited item to pass through security and they frequently conduct testing and have implemented changes to better deter, detect and disrupt any threat of potential terrorism. is this a wake-up call for tsa in washington and every airport across the country in. >> it is a wake-up call. there are good rules and regulations in place for tsa to perform their job. it's a failure of accountability on the management level and on the officer level. >> reporter: eye-opening for sure. by the way, after getting all of those items past security, we went back to the checkpoints and told them they missed them and returned the items voluntarily. one tsa worker even telling us she's embarrassed and wished all passengers were as honest as us. course. the bad guys aren't, and the tsa does say they confiscate thousands of items a year. experts, as you can see, just not enough. >> a high failure rate, that's for sure. >> jeff, thank you very much. >> let's get a check of the weather now from mr. roker.

going to be a little on the bumpy side today because we've got a lot of wind going on. all right. on the west coast, we've got a big area of high pressure. mid-section of the country we've got low pressure and then as we make our way to the east over the northeast we've got a big area of high pressure, so the difference between those pressure systems basically set up pressure gradeients. those bands of pressure squeezing the wind between them, so as that happens we'll be looking at a lot of wind. in fact, we've got high wind watches and warnings out through the pacific northwest into the plains. in fact parts of wyoming already reporting wind gusts of 85 miles per hour or more and could get up to 100-mile-per-hour winds. winds in bismarck 26 and omaha today will see wind gusts of 22 miles per hour, and as we make our way further to the west, chicago, st. louis, louisville, we are looking at a lot of winds over the next several days. power outages, downed trees and

wheelers have to be careful >> jeremy: good morning. cold again. temperatures come out of the 20s and 30s late this morning. boston around 38 later today. tomorrow not as cold, but the trade-off more clouds. a few rain showers arriving after about 4:00 tomorrow. tomorrow morning is dry. mid-50s through the day tomorrow. some rain very early friday morning. but then clearing skies and a nice day. temperatures on friday upper 50s to around 60. >> get that weather any time you need it, weather channel on cable and weather.com online. >> thanks, al. coming up next, how people are reacting to charlie sheen's announcement here on the show that he's hiv-positive. >> a live concert from justin bieber who says it will be his

surprises, but, first, these so what about that stock? actually, knowing the kind of risk that you're comfortable with, i'd steer clear. straight talk. multiplied by 13,000 financial advisors it's how edward jones makes

seeing with a woman blowing her up with a suicide vest. an extraordinary night. police believe they were targeting an isis cell that was planning another series of attacks. a gun battle and explosions echoed overnight in a quiet kwai hood in the heart of paris. they had a specific target, this man, abdelhamid abaaoud. the bell jab suspected of planning last friday's terror attacks that killed 129 people. as soon as police stormed the building, one woman wearing a suicide vest blew herself up. it's unclear if abaaoud is among those arrested. according to police five officers and one civilian were injured. this morning's raid took place a mile from the stade de france, the stadium targeted nearly a week ago. >> boom, boom, boom, boom. >> reporter: witnesses say they

could hear multiple explosions. some residents removed from their homes out of harm's way. after seven hours with heavy gunfire exchanged, france's government spokesman confirmed the raid was finally over. and police telling me that they targeted this apartment because of tapped phone conversations, because of surveillance of that young woman and also because of other witnesses. and sources telling nbc news that there is every reason to believe that this could have been an imminent attack. that's based on the number of people in the apartment, the fact that there was an active suicide vest that obviously was detonated quite quickly and based on the fact of the number of guns and ammunition used over this seven-hour siege they believe this was an isis sell possibly planning an imminent attack. natalie. >> very scary. bill neely in paris once again
