are being asked to rise up and kill intelligence officers. police officers. soldiers and civilians. officials say they're pointing to this video posted over the weekend. essentially a remix of an isis threat issued last september. but still of concern across the country -- >> the target is to just go out and kill law enforcement and other officials. >> the concern is heightened by new evidence of the role of al qaeda and isis in the deadly attacks in paris last week. including this so-called video hosted online from the gunman who killed five people at the supermarket. with a black jihadist flag swearing allegiance to isis and saying the attacks were syncized and offers thanks in order to

finish buying everything necessary. >> i think we learn again as we did in 9/11 that it d cost much money for terrorist organizations to do this. >> coulibaly's girlfriend being sought who went from bikinis to burqas as his alleged partner in terror. french authorities confirmed to abc news that she fled to syria the day her boyfriend shot and killed a policewoman. they're searching for a car that they fear could be rigged with explosives. france on high alert stepping up security across the country this morning and we're seeing the brand new images from the hostages and learning new details about the terrorists. abc's terry moran has the latest. good morning terry. >> reporter: i'm across the street from the kosher market that was attacked. the prime minister here.

concerns this may not be over. talking about potential acomp hiss may be out there. deploying 10,000 troops to protect the country including 4,700 troops assigned to jewish synagogs and schools. a huddled family cradles a child. a scene inside the freezer in that kosher grocery store during the standoff. terrified hostages in hiding. the final shootout freeing them safely. this video shows police storming the brothers holed up north of paris. forensic teams working inside an apartment rented by coulibaly the gunman who took hostages. police finding an arsenal inside along with isis flags, detonators and cash. all this after a truly awesome day of demonstrations.

more than one million marched in paris and three million across france. 40 world leaders here but no senior american leading to criticism of president obama in the u.s. press. sorry, charlie, the new york post blairs while the daily news you let the world down. one more detail from here. reports that the gunman at this market may have been wearing a go-pro camera and up loaded that video before the final shootout in which he was killed. >> white house taking heat for not being there. president obama not there and no top cabinet officials. front pages having a field day. how is the president's team explaining this. >> this looks like a missed opportunity for the president to show a powerful symbolic display of unity with the world against terrorism. the officials are telling me is if the president had gone to the

march it would have required security that would have distracted from the march and interfered with the march and would not have been productive. worth noting you had more than 40 foreign leaders there and a lot of security. each one of those foreign leaders requires security. there was a companion march just a few blocks from the white house. no senior officials took part either. the white house is pointing out those, george that the president did go on thursday to the french embassy and expressed solidarity with the french in help and getting to the bottom of this. >> in paris yesterday. when i spoke to him yesterday he left the door open for retaliation so they can pin down who is responsible for this. >> he was over there working with john kerry, the secretary of state will be in paris working with the french on that. >> john thanks very much. and we turn to the golden globes one of hollywood's biggest nights and a early hint

the next game is cooler pong. you know how this works. when the game is ending nd and the team wins you dump that cooler. now it's ping pong ball. so right now because the duck knocked over the ping pong ball. we got to weight. let's stall. >> we call this vamping. >> what is the intention of the game? >> to take those coolers -- each mascot is running them down here and dumping them on their head coach, so that's the purpose. >> on the respective head coaches or the opposite -- >> on the respective head coaches. >> normally the coaches are unaware and always have their backs turned. this time they'll be facing the mascots. >> yes. >> coming in. this is -- i get paid for this stuff. >> yes. >> jessie palmer. ladies and gentlemen. >> duck has a disadvantage. take a look. look at duck's feet. wait a second. he's got huge feet and brutus

has sneakers. >> he wasn't running that time. he was being carried. >> duck gets to do anything he wants to stop brutus to the finish line. >> wow. >> you might want to move back here. >> the game of audibles. are you ready? whoever makes it here first wins. ready, set, go! okay. there goes duck. brutus is -- oh wait a second. >> didn't he dump it on top of the coach. more throwing it at the coach. can we look at instant replay? >> i wish we could. do slow-mo. do it again. it was like this. they were running. >> that was an overhead fast ball. hitting him right in the face. the ball on the ground. i'm going to call that one a draw. >> a draw. >> that was a draw. it was so close. instant replay in the reviews it was a draw. >> a draw.

>> duck wants a review. >> the winner, brutus buckeye. >> he's taking it. >> brutus. >> i personally like the reenactment. i think that was something. brutus congratulations. the duck, thank you. cheerleaders cheerleaders thank you. i know you got up early to be with us. it's going to -- let's go back to you, george. >> it is getting ugly. the big game tonight at 8:30 eastern on espn. there it is right there. now let's go for a final check of the weather. >> we had a taste of buckeye cookies. we got fans out here. who are you going for? >> ohio. >> buckeyes. >> ducks. >> ducks. >> the ducks. >> buckeyes. >> get your money out. placing bets later. let's go to the forecast. the mid section of the country is where the cold is. we have got ice in some spots. temperatures are frigid.
