and hi, everyone. welcome to "the early show" here on a saturday morning. first official fall weaken and it feels like it here on the east coast. >> a little chilly outside. i'm erica hill. >> and i'm chris wragge. got a great two hours coming up. 50 million people across thi country don't get enough sleep. >> that's an amazing number to me. that includes the two of us by the way. >> they shy you should get seven to eight hours of sleep every night to operate at full capacity. we're working on six combined. >> i got three last night, yeah that was big for me. but here's the good news. a lot of people turn to drugs for that. there are ally different gadgets that could help you sleep. we'll bring you a few of those. also working out a little bit, if you can't get to the gym, call on jim or dave or pete or chris or whoever your spouse or significant other may be

named. we're doing couples working out. >> this is your chance to laugh at all, it's back. >> this couple will be working out with sarah on the show in just a couple months. also richard marx is here. but first the top story, the escalating tension between the u.s. and iran. president obama warned tehran on friday to come clean or face the consequences. cbs news correspondent elizabeth palmer has the latest. >> reporter: this morning iran has actually hardened up its line on this newly disclosed site. it was under construction. they now say it's going to be put into operation. that's from the supreme leaders office which is squarely in line with the tone taken by iran's president. in new york iran's president, mahmoud ahmadinejad, was on the offensive. >> translator: this is not anything secretly, it just doesn't mean that we must inform

h. inform mr. obama's administration of every facility that we have. >> reporter: but iran didn't tell the iaea the world's nuclear watch dog, until last monday. and only came clean then say western intelligence agencies because their secret had been discovered. it's time said president obama, for iran to start dealing in good faith. >> iran's leaders must now choose. they can live up to their responses and achieve integration with the community of nations, or they will face increased pressure and isolation. >> reporter: iran has three main nuclear sites in operation. the biggest is in the t after the nz where they enrich enrain yum. it's converted into other forms and in rack there's a heavy water plant. the latest site is near the holy city of qom on a former military missile site. western agencies believe it was going to be used touranium.

iran insists this is for peaceful purposes only. now, this really sets the stage for highly charged face to face talks later this week between iran on one side of the table and the u.s. britain, germany, france, and china on the other. elizabeth palmer in london for us. thank you. now for some perspective on iran's pursuit of nuclear weapon, we're joined in our washington bureau by martin, director of foreign policy at the brookings institution. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. >> now that we know that iran has been hiding certain aspects of its nuclear program, what can be done? that is the big question this morning. >> well, clearly president obama is going to try to engage with the iranians this coming thursday. negotiators will be sitting down and trying to get the iranians to see that it's in their interests to in the only come

clean, but accept international safe guards and curbs on their program that would give the international community sufficient confidence that it's not going to take its fuel and divert it into nuclear bomb making material. if that doesn't work then i think president obama and british and french leaders have made clear that the nest step is what's called crippling sanctions. if that doesn't work then we're left with very unpalatable options. >> there was limited tou talk yesterday, mostly coming from gordon brown, president sarkozy, president obama. do you still have russia and china that are a really on the sidelines here? and are sanctions enough? especially without russia and china giving their full support. >> the hope is that we can bring russia and china along. the wush shans have at least shown a little bit of anchor now in terms of being prepared to consider that. the chinese are still on the

fence. there's a lot of hard diplomacy in bringing them around but it's not hopeless especially because the iranians have just made it easier through their deception on this particular case. but it seems to me a doubtful proposition that in the end we can produce sanctions that are sufficient to change the mind of the iranian regime. after all, we've had some 30 years of american sanctions on on iran as well as european sanctions. there are some things that can be done like a with an on the importation of refined oil which would puthurt the iranian economy but they have the ability to withstanding sanctions for longer. >> president obama and secretary gates have both mentioned military force as a potential option. do you see that as the road we are now down-headed in. >> yes in stages. and we shouldn't assume that we're going to get there anytime

soon. i think we're probably 12 months off before this path of engagement and potentially sanctions and then looking at the other options. but the other option that's on the table is the military option even though it's into the good one, partly because it only buys time. the iranians would take the nuclear program even further you said ground presumably abrogate their obligations understand the nonproliferation treaty not that they respect it in any way at this point, but it would buy us some time to hope that the are a rigime would change. deterrence is what we do in the race of -- which is what we did in the cold war. >> ambassador, thank you for taking the time. >> thanks for having me. now over to erica.

>> terror suspect najibullah zazi is in custody here in new york morning. the 24-year-old afghan immigrant arrived friday from denver after a judge ordered his transfer. prosecutors say zazi was planning a terrorist attack in new york on the anniversary of the september 1 #th attacks. cbs news justice department bob orr reports. >> reporter: surveillance tapes and receipts from this denver area beauty supply shop show he twice bought large amounts of hydrogen per he rox side a key ingredient for explosives sources say zazi hoped to unleash on new york. >> when the fbi asked, all we had to do was go l. go through our transaction history and those two popped up. >> reporter: when they continued to search two other would be terrorists are also in jail charged in separate schemes unrelated to zazi's plot. 19-year-old is accused to attempting to blow up this

dallas high rise and michael finton is charged with trying to bomb the federal course hourt in springfield, illinois. both were taken down in fbi stings undercover agents acting as fellow terrorists and providing dummy bombs. the men presented no real danger, but they underscore the on going threat. >> there are people living in the united states who may be u.s. citizens or legal residents who want to carry out violent acts. >> reporter: and sources say najibullah zazi is a frightening case in point. a legal u.s. resident intent on attacking the home land. bob orr, cbs news, washington. so many arrests in such a short period of time has many wondering what's going on. joining us is cbs national security analyst. juan zarate. as we look at the developments in these arrests, is there a

connection here or is it simply company coincidence some. >> there doesn't appear to be any connection. the individuals appear to be acting alone, motivated to commit terrorist acts. fortunately contacted by fbi undercover agents and sources early on. and so those were singular cases. but what's interesting about the coincidence is the timing. we were about to commemorate the september 11th anniversary. we were in the period of the holy month for muslims which sometimes violent extremists use as a period to plan attacks. and so there may have been some connections in terms of the calendar versus any of the plots themselves. >> so it would be more the calendar that would be the connection or could it be that law enforcement is shrimply maybe stepping up or at the point where they're closer to uncovering some of these potential cells? >> well, these cases usually have a life of their own. they're being hammed by the local fbi and the joint

terrorism task forces. and so the development of them and when they're taken down usually is a decision made by the local agents. that said the fbi may have had an incentive here especially given that we don't know exactly what was at play in the zazi case to try to disrupt as many ongoing activities as possible to act as a deterrent. so that may be at play as well. >> so you bring up a good point. acting that the particular moment. how close do you think this plot in particular was to becoming a reality? >> well, the zazi plot is hard to tell. in part because the agents are still trying to figure out what the network looked like what zazi was trying to target and what his plan ultimately was. but given what we though about the sense of urgency that zazi had leading up to the september 11th anniversary, his travel from denver to new york authorities think that he was getting close to the operational

stage. >> before we let you go there's been some discussion about how perhaps the fbi and the nypd maybe weren't working as well together that maybe an officer should have spoiled some plans and disrupted the discovery of a larger terror cell. is that a legitimate concern? >> well, in any of these cases, there's the need for cooperation. and nypd and fbi especially after 9/11 work very well together. in these cases, though sometimes you have to use sources and in this case this individual in new york who has been arrested to try to find out more information. in this case he actually told zazi the suspect, that the federal authorities were looking at him. that was a mistake. that led to the preemptive arrestses and a a little bit of a premature closure of the case and that's why the authorities are still trying to figure out what the entire network looks like. >> naum of questions to be answered. thanks for helping us make sense of it. let's turn now to kate sully

sullivan with a look at the rest of the headlines. good morning. let's get you caught up. there may be a delay in closing "the quan" tan mobay prison. senior administration officials tell the associated press they're running in to legal and logistical hurdles including locating a new prison to house detainees and fikding host countries for those who can be released. president obama has set a january deadline if closing the detention center in cuba approximately 225 detainees are still being held there. there are disturbing new details this morning about the death of a part-time census worker in appalachia. it appears more than likely he was murdered in an area where anti-government sentiment runs high. cbs news' dave browarddy has the story. >> reporter: it was a bizarre discovery in a remoelt section of certain kentucky. 51-year-old bill sparkman a teacher and part-time work foert united states census, was found two weeks ago hanging from a

tree with the word fed scrawled on his chest. now a man who says he was among those who found the body tells the associated breaks that sparkman was naked, bound at the hands and feet with duct tape and gappinggged. details not yet confirmed by authorities. a retired state trooper who worked with sparkman at johnson elementary school says he warned that shall in the rural area are hostile. >> i said bill you be careful when you go over into eastern kentucky to do your census work. some of the people over there may not understand that it you're just collecting statistics. >> reporter: according to the sheriff, there's only been one murder in clay county in three years. the census bureau has suspended door to door work there as authorities continue their investigation. for the saturday "early show," this is 2k5i6 browdy in new york. meanwhile funeral services for annie le will be held near her hometown. le's body was found inside a wall of a yale research building

he says enough talk about health care, how about i go and give some health care to a bunch of folks. so he's actually doling out a little bit in texas to thousands this morning. >> nothing like free health care down at reliant stadium. also richard marx in our second cup cafe. like i said before, the guy looks and sounds great. he's got 13 number ones and it's kind of like our motto, we've adopted over the past few years, we're not going stop until we're satisfied. that's what we're all about. >> we do want to get to you our top story. iran's nuclear plans. the country revealing a second secret uranium enrichment plant. kimberly dozier is at the white house. >> reporter: the three world leaders essentially called iran

out over building an alleged secret nuclear weapons facility. this was the diplomatic equivalent of shouting out "you lie." the leaders of the u.s. france and britain launched a united diplomatic 59 tack on iran's hidden nuclear facility. president obama says iran must prove it's dropping plans to build nuclear weapons. >> they are into to go have to come clean and they will have to make a choice. >> reporter: u.s. officials say the secret facility is tunneled this to a mountain near iran and he holy city of gom. when finished it could produce enough uranium to make one bomb a year. iran's president insists it's legal and peaceful, though it was only revealed to the world's nuke rear watch dog this week. he said mr. obama and the others have made a mistake. >> translator: i'm sure they'll definitely feel sorry about their move. i think they already probably regret it and will be regretting it more down the road. >> reporter: experts say there's little chance iran will shut the

plant down. >> they'll say, well, why d't you come and ebb spect it more thoroughly. >> reporter: six world powers including the u.s. sit down with iran next thursday. the french president has said if iran didn't agree to shut down this plant in the next two months, it will face new sanctions by the end of the year. erica? >> thanks. so is president obama's policy of engagement with iran in effect over? for some perspective we're joined by bobby gosh. good to have you with us this morning. you were actually sitting with him, you asked him a question about this revelation about this nuclear facility and he had sort of an interesting reaction to that which you saw firsthand. >> he was taken a bcht ack. until that point he was completely in control, he had set answers, he anticipated most of our questions. with you but when we asked him about the new facility and when we told him that even while we were talking to him president

obama was making his speech he seemed quite taken aback. he and his aides were fiercely scratching notes to each other. they hpt expected the question and his response suggested as well he was defensive, he said i don't have to tell president obama everything i have. he said we're working with the iaea. so he was really plusflustered. >> so when it comes to this talk that there rashas been engagement, does it mean the policy is dead? >> not yet, but it's getting close. the options are beginning to dwindle dwindle. next week iran will sit down with the five countries of the security council and germany and basically this is the time for pounding on the table and by bringing this to the world's attention, i think this is a card that the obama administration has played and we'll see whether iran responds. and if they don't, then we'll have no other option.

>> and more sanctions coming. china and russia are not necessarily in that mix. how important is to get those five nations together and potentially germany to make something happen? >> it's crucial. without china and russia it won't happen. russia is showing that it might be interested in coming along. china is still resisting. but if all the other five countries ban together it will be hard forechina to say we want to stay out of it about. >> there's also some talk and concern about other countries, israel has been mentioned, goal after iran. is that a real possibility? >> israel has none too subtly made it clear that that's something they are considering, but there are too many other concerns about how that will impact not just iran but the entire neighborhood. and i think washington has been trying to restrain israel. i suspect that will continue while there is still a hope. small as that hope may be, that there might be a diplomatic solution. >> i can bet that it will keep you very busy for the next couple of months. great to have you with us.

thanks. and let's get a check now of some of the other headlines. kate sullivan is back at the news desk. and good morning. at least 16 people have been killed in two separate suicide car bombings in pakistan. authorities say one bomb exploded outside a bank. there was a second bombing outside a police station. at least 150 people were injured in those blasts. these attacks come just days after the taliban warned against an army offensive. and "people" magazine report police in the bahamas have a joid tape showing the attempt to blackmail john travolta over the death of his son. at the trial this week, the actor admitted that his 16-year-old son jett was autistic and suffered from seizures. kelly cobiella has more. >> reporter: john travolta could be back on the stand as early as monday afternoon. once again reliving the painful after math of his son's death. jett died in january after having a seizure at the family's vacation villa in the bahamas. in the weeks that followed,

authorities say they unravelled a bizarre plot to blackmail travolta an ambulance driver and a local politician are now on trial. prosecutors say the two threatened to embarrass tro value a take with a document that said he didn't want medical care for his son unless travolta paid them $25 million. both defendants say they're innocent. >> that's what we're saying. there's know case. >> reporter: the normally outgoing travolta has been reclusive since his son's death canceling interviews and reportedly flying his planes along around the country. he's made only one public appearance with wife kelly preston and daughter ella to promote a fille. >> john's sparkle is gone. that spark that star power, is gone. you're looking at a man who is grieving. >> reporter: this past week, travolta talked about his son's death for the first it time publicly on the witness stand. he was composed and showed little emotion. even while describing his own frantic efforts to revive his son with cpr. when he's called back he'll be asked about who tried to blackmail him and how.

president obama's plan for health care reform has thrust the flight of the uninsured in to the spotlight. while congress argues how to change our system this weekend dr. oz host of the new dr. oz show is doing something with it himself. he's offering free medical services to thousands of people that are uninsure. dr. joins us from houston. how are you? good to see you this morning. what kind of message are you trying to send here by opening the doors here down at reliant to allow people to seek your help? >> when we initially got involved, what we wanted to do was shine a spotlight on the importance of free clinics but also the flight of the 47 million americans who don't have health care. we had no idea the overwhelming response that we would have the cries for help from the city of houston and the state of texas. these are real people who have jobs who just can't afford

health insurance or have gotten it too far behind to be able to keep up with their health problems. and i must say, this is the largest health mobilization in houston since katrina. so a national disaster which brought out had this kind of response is now paralleled by a national disasterecause this is just an average day in houston and there are thousands of people who need help. >> you mentioned that 47 million people living in the u.s. that run insured right now. as a physician, what scares you most about that number and how much of an impact you can make now, can health care reform make in your eyes? >> well, i see someone who is uninsured, it's like a ship that has no captain. because it has no steward ship it will crash into the port, it spills its oil, it's very expensive, therefore, to care for these people. they don't know where to dock. we waste a lot of money taking care of these people and they don't get good value for the care they do get. i think our ultimate challenge is not to battle health care finance, it's to provide care of health. what we have to do is provide services like free clinics to

educate the 4 million people treated in free clinics, but give them the education and support to treat the diseases that strip the vitality of our nation away. that has been the big focus of the show the whole time is to create this national conversation. so we realize how much we have to do ourselves. we cannot delegate this to washington. >> let me ask you about h1n1. the vaccine will be available in october. i'm sure you'll get hundreds, if not thousands of people that will inquire about it today. will there be enough of that vaccine for everyone do you feel? >> i think we'll have enough vaccine for everybody. if you look behind me, about three football fields wide. at the back door we have a special area for the people who have the flu because we don't want them mixing with the rest of the people coming. so we're taking precautions. there are lines independent of the vaccine question to make sure folks do the right thing. that's the big message because, again, the way we'll stay ahead of both the seasonal flu and swine flu vaccine is not through

the vaccinations although they're probably important but through things we can to in our own lives. that's again the broader mission. >> dr. oz best of luck to you today. this is a great endeavor. we wish you the best of luck not only today but also with the show. thanks for taking the time speak with us. >> thank you very much very much. take care. coming up next an amazing story that has touched everyone. a young man disabled due to muscular dystrophy. he takes the journey of a lifetime. we'll go inside his incredible road trip when we come back. this is "the early show" here on cbs. - ( funk music playing ) - let's put a few thousand kilowatts in a vise. squeeze some savings back into our budget. into our attics and walls. let's locate the original energy source called you and turn that machine up full-blast. more saving. more doing. that's the power of the home depot. come get 50% more savings on insulation with the new lower price of just $9.37 per roll.

don't see because you were rafting on on the colorado river. so you're in the grand canyon, pot just look not just looking at that time from above. logan, you've known him for years. >> yeah i've known him since he was five. i actually met him through his brother, mario, who you saw in that segment. mario and i grew up together. mario also had the disease and just before he passed away he asked me to look out for d and it's turned out to -- we never knew it would turn into this but it turned in to a 100,000 mile road trip. we pre-sold credit positive $10 and we have the longest credit role rolling documentary in history. >> i know you're also raising money to help raise awareness and research. the goal, though, as you said initially, you were going to california. you were going see the country, but you were also going to get your ride pinched there. talked to mtv, had them trick out your wheelchair.

you get there and what happens? >> i didn't get it pimped. >> what was going through your mind. >> i was disappointed with about it, but i think it worked out for my best. if they did pimp my ride, we would have had no end to go our movie. >> you mentioned tomorrow's your birthday. we couldn't let you go without giving you a little cake. so chris wragge is staying by -- >> does d. somebody say there was birthday? >> the big 2-0? >> it never hurts to make a wish a little early.
