9/11. there is a palpable fear it's not over and there could be another attack at any moment or any day. last night i was at notre dame and the rumors spread through the crowd that another attack is under way and the people began to run, so there is a great sense of nervousness about what could happen next, mixed in with this sense of sadness as well. a sense of uncertainty about what the next days and months will bring. >> thank you, scott. scott pelley in paris. the terrorist attacked six locations on friday night within minutes of each other. we are learning new information about those attackers. elizabeth palmer is outside the bataclan concert hall in paris where nearly 100 people were killed. elizabeth, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. those raids that scott just told you about have been going on all night. not only here in france, but also in belgium. belgium has a strong connection

to the attacks. and it's still continuing as we speak morning. the security services are moving in aggressively on the network behind friday's attacks. meanwhile, french reports say the suspected mastermind of the operation is abdelhamid abaaoud who had gone to fight in syria. that is where he is believed to be now. earlier this year he was named the likely ring leader of a plot to kill police in belgium. the police have issued an international arrest warrant for a suspected terrorist who is still on the loose. he is salah abdeslam borne in belgium and he rented bun of the cars they used that was towed rae from the bataclan concert hall for testing. the other is samy amimor and attacked the concert hall and is

7:10 am
the looming question remained how to respond. president obama vowed to hunt down the perpetrators during a meeting with the president of turkey, a country also hit by isis. >> the killing of innocent people, based on a twisted ideology is an attack is not just on france and not just on turkey, but it's an attack on the civilized world. >> reporter: u.s. officials plan to intensify the fight, that includes more air strikes targeting top leaders. more intelligence sharing between the u.s. and european countries, and tighter control of the turkish/syrian border to restrict movement of foreign fighters. president obama is trying to convince russia's vladimir putin to join the fight and trying to convince him and the king ab dull dull la seizing on this

7:16 am
>> good morning. >> reporter: let me pick up on what jeff said. clearly isis has a global strategy. is it possible, likely that they will come to the united states? a strategy, not a lone wolf. >> charlie, what we saw in paris was a manifestation of a year-long effort by isis to build an attack capability in western europe. they said they were going to do that. they did that. they have also said they are going to do that here. so i do think it's a matter of time before they make that effort and unless we degrade them and push back on them, they will be successful. >> pick up on that. you told norah over the weekend, our strategy to defeat them degrade them is simply not working. he said no one wants to tell a president that the plan isn't working, but that is the case here. so the plan is not working. what does the president have to do in coordination with others who is he meeting with at the g-20? >> i think what we have to do is we have to look at every aspect of how we defend ourselves against these guys and every
7:17 am
aspect of how we go after them on the offense. on the defensive side, it's how do we screen these migrants coming into europe and coming into the united states? among other things. on the offensive side, we have to look at our rules of engagement, right? how much collateral are we going to accept in the fight against them. we have to look at how many troops are we willing to put on the ground. not to do the combat themselves, but to be on the frontlines to advise and assist, to be on the frontlines to call in air strikes. we have to look at every aspect of this and ask ourselves what do we need to change. >> you heard margaret brennan reported a year-long strategy of bombing. isis has not worked and yet the short-term response to these attacks is more air strikes by the french. >> right. ovens to me that the french had to do this, right? politically, more than anything. it's very clear, as you said, that a year of doing this has not changed the dynamic, so air strikes alone are not going to work. one of the things that strikes
7:18 am
me is if there were 20 targets yesterday for the french to hit, why weren't there 20 targets the day before for somebody else to hit? >> but ten months after "charlie hebdo" and france was on high alert how were they able to carry this out well trained and well coordinated and go undetected? >> we don't know yet but i think what we are going to learn is that they used these encrypted apps. commercial enkrings which is very difficult, if not impossible f governments to producers of than encryption do not produce the key, right, for either them to open this stuff up or for them to give to governments to open this stuff up. this is a result of edward snowden and the public debate. i now think we are going to have another public debate about encryption and whether the government should have access to the keys and the result may be different this time given what happened in paris. >> i know you'll join us again in the next hour. hundreds gathered at a

8:02 am
locations overnight in france and belgium. there is an international manhunt under way to salah abdeslam who say he is the last of the terrorists who killed 129 people in france on friday night. a moment of silence this morning in paris to honor the victims of the terrorist attack. elizabeth palmer is in paris outside the bataclan concert hall where most of the victims died. elizabeth, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. as you mentioned, the police operation is not only aggressive but very wide ranging and raids all over france and in belgium whatere least two of the attackers either lived or came from. the police have named the mab they think is the mastermind of the paris attacks. he is abdelhamid abaaud and already known to belgium police. in fact, they wanted to arrest
8:03 am
him for suspected links to a plot to attack a train and also to attack belgium police. but he has fought in syria before and he is thought to have escaped back there. in fact, he is suspected to be there now. you also mentioned there is one terrorist on the loose. he is salah abdeslam. one of his brothers is thought to have been one of the suicide bombers here in the paris attacks. he was the logistics man and drove the car that the attackers used to get to the bataclan club and he thought to go back to belgium over the weekend and number one on the wanted list right now. >> elizabeth palmer in paris, thank you. france's government has revealed the name of five suspects who died in the attack. greek official believes this man arrived in greece on october 3rd, traveling on a migrant ship and using a fame syrian passport. holly williams in athens has
8:04 am
details of the race to identify the attackers. holly, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the name on that passport is al muhammad. it is confirmed this morning this is the document the minister told us the man's identity was not on any international wanted list. so after registering and being fingerprinted here in greece, he was allowed to enter europe. he arrived by boat from turkey. one of more than 600,000 migrants who have made that crossing this year and many of them syrian refuges. a serbian official told us an individual carrying the same passport entered serbia from macedonia on october 7th and then reportedly crossed into croatia. it's long been feared that isis would use a flood of refuges to smuggle its fighters into europe. but it's been impossible for european countries to thoroughly check all of the migrants
8:05 am
arriving on their shores this year, because many of them do not have an identity document or they give false information. gayle? >> thank you, holly williams in athens. critics of president obama say his strategy to destroy isis is not working. the president met sunday with world leaders at the g-20 summit in turkey. he vowed to step up the fight against the terror group. president obama referred to isis several times as dash, a derogatory determine for the europe in arabic. >> we will redouble our efforts working with the other members of the coalition to bring about a peaceful transition in syria and to eliminate dash as a force that can create so much pain and suffering for people in paris and other parts of the globe. >> reporter: the president met with russia's vladimir putin about 30 minutes. the two have openly disagreed how to stop isis and end the
8:06 am
civil war in syrian. we will bring you the president's special report at 10:30 eastern time and 9:30 central time. candidates agreed isis must be defeated at the democratic presidential debate on saturday. >> we will agree to at that time fight to isis but cannot be an american fight although a leadership is central. >> i disagree with secretary clinton on this score. this is america's fight. it cannot be solely be america's fight. >> i would argue that the disastrous invasion of iraq, something i strongly opposed, had unraveled the region completely and led to the rise of al qaeda and to isis. >> republicans donald trump and ben carson and ted cruz said the united states should reverse
8:07 am
plans to accept 10,000 syrian refuges next year. marco rubio argues for special operations going after isis. jeb bush tweeted this is our fight defeating isis requires the strengths, unity and resolve that only american leadership can provide. governor bush is with us this morning from miami. good morning. >> good morning. >> reporter: you have said we should they're war to defeat isis. how should we fight that war and will they do it without ground troops, including americans? >> they have declared war on us and we need a strategy to defeat them. we can't coexist with them. we do have american forces in iraq and in syria but there is no strategy. a strategy would require american leadership to create a no-fly zone and create safe havens. it's unconscionable to have hundreds of thousands of people being displaced and not have no security possibilities, both in europe and possibly in the united states. we need to create safe zones for them and to build an army that will take out isis with the
8:08 am
support -- >> where is that coming from, governor? >> it would come from the countries in the region and come from the syrian people themselves. we are supporting the remnants of the syrian free army and we should continue to do so with the support of the arab countries and europe. there needs to be a strategy. we can't you react to each event. this is the tragedy of the obama administration and it looks as though the democratic candidates want to continue this. it's just to maintain and contain rather than to defeat and i think that is the wrong approach. >> governor, as you've seen, we have had a year-long strategy of bombing isis. if that strategy is not working, does it mean we need boots on the ground in syria? is that what you would do? >> well, first off we don't have a strategy. the president has admitted that twice in the last year. bombing is part of it for sure. having air superiority is important. we ought to listen to the commanders and say what is the strategy necessary to defeat isis? and i think it would be require more boots on the ground, if you will, or more troops on the
8:09 am
ground, more special operators, more people that are embedded in the iraqi army, for example. more training for the peshmerga forces and more gauge engagement with the sunni tribal leaders and we can't do this alone and no possible way we can do that but we can lead and when we do, we can be effectiv >> if the general said we need 50,000 troops on the ground would you support that? >> i can't speculate on that. i think we should have a strategy. the president of the united states should describe what that strategy is to the american people. we should draw people towards that strategy and we should implement it. today, five more terrorists are being released from guantanamo. this is the wrong approach. we are sending mixed signals rather than being clear and concise this is a fight for western civilization and i know the european allies that had been reluctant to be involved will be involved and i think the traditional arab states will as well but it requires american leadership and we don't have it
8:10 am
right now. >> do you think this terrorist attack will change your strategy of your campaign and the message you want to get to the american people? in the past, the polls have shown that american voters prefer people who necessarily have political experience. >> i think when you get closer to the election, any way, having someone with proven leadership skills in the private sector and government is going to matter. the national security questions will become more important. i laid out a plan to defeat isis two months ago at the reagan library and it still applies. make it more complicated by iran and russia's involvement in syria for sure and still applies and we should do it. >> what about migrants coming into the united states from syria? should there be some restrictions as some governors and others are suggesting? >> yes, i think there should be. of course, there should be. there should be -- look. we have to have a reality based immigration policy for sure. there should be really thorough screening and we should focus on
8:11 am
creating safe havens for refuges in syria than bringing them across to the united states. i do think there is a special important need to make sure that christians from syria are being protected, because they are being slaughtered in the country and but for us, who? who would take care of the number of christians that, right now, are completely displaced? >> let me ask you about president putin, because we saw president obama meet with him for half an hour yesterday and the discussion is about having president putin help broker a cease-fire in syria. do you envision a role for president putin in a political situation for syria? >> not if he continues to prop up the assad regime that has killed over 200,000 of its citizens. if russia changes its tune and says we want to be a part of a coalition to defeat isis and to reach a settlement where assad leaves, certainly we should talk to him but it ought to be from a position of strength, not
8:12 am
weakness. that is the problem with our foreign policy right now. it's incredibly reactive. there is no leadership where people follow us. we are reacting to events. >> governor, is this a war against radical islam? >> yes, it is. absolutely. and for the life of me, i have a hard time understanding why people get twisted up in knots to avoid saying that this is radical islamic terrorism. >> governor jeb bush, thank you. >> thank you. social media is planning an unprecedented parol in the wake of the paris attacks and leading to backlash against facebook safety check feature. we will look at the digital response to terrorism next here on "cbs this morning." announcer: this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored by farmers insurance. get smarter at farmers.com. your coverage, abot the more gaps you might find. like how you thought you were covered for all this... when you're really only covered for this. hot dog? or how you may think you're covered for this...

8:35 am
catch some of the guys who are at -- who are out there still, particularly this particular mastermind, is to find out how they did it. >> what is the significance of that terror sleeper cell operating in belgium for a period of time? >> so it's clear that there could be sleeper cells elsewhere, right? that is what it tells you. it happens to be in a community in belgium that -- where this kind of potential is but that potential exists in pair raripa london. >> new york? >> i wouldn't say new york. the immigration of muslims in the united states is much better than it is in europe. i think there is a difference. >> you had said over the weekend about president assad of syria being involved. you didn't say he was the solution, but he should be part of the solution. that raised a lot of questions for a lot of people. what do you mean by that? >> here is my concern. my concern is if president a sad left the scene without a new government and everybody supports and everybody is
8:36 am
behind, then there is a real risk that the institutions of governments in syria, particularly the military, the security service, the intelligence service, could fall apart and we could end up with a much more unstable situation like we had in libya. >> that is the warning vladimir putin is making. >> exactly. >> let me turn to a point we raised early which is the u.s. policy. you said that somebody has to tell the president it's wrong. >> look him in the eye. >> look him in the eye. who can do that? and how hard is it to say to the president, you are wrong? >> one of the responsibilities of the leaders of the intelligence community, so the director of national intelligence and the director of cia, is to be able to have a good enough relationship with the president to be able to have that conversation. all right? a that is one of their responsibilities. i don't know what they have been telling him. >> what if they don't think he is wrong, mike? >> well, then they, obviously, not telling him that, right? but look. given what i have seen and given

8:38 am
of the 9/11 attacks. what is the search about al bag datty? is he personally attacking these sleeper cells? >> he's a very hands-on leader. i suspect he is. it's a very hierarchy organization so the leadership matters here a lot. one of the things we learned dealing with al qaeda is that the key way, one of the key ways, probably the most important way to degrade a terrorist organization is to decapitate it and get rid of its leadersh leadership. you do by taking out one or two every week. and not every two or three months. >> should we have people from the cia working on this issue in syria? >> the key way to finding the guys taking them off the battlefield is having the intelligence to know where they are, at what time. >> infiltrating? >> you need that. >> the administration might say
8:39 am
to this that is exactly what we have been doing. >> i don't think we are doing enough of it. i don't think our intelligence is good enough, right? i don't think we are taking enough action. otherwise, we wouldn't be removing a leader once every three or four months, we would be removing two a week. >> you raised the thing about terrorists going dark and essentially using their phones and these encrypted apps to communicate. are they using those not only in belgium and france and perhaps other places but are they using those in syria and iraq to communicate? >> yes, absolutely. >> what do we need to do, mike, to keep ourselves safe? everyone keeps saying you can't live in fear. i don't know how you not live in fear when you see what is going on in the world. >> i think a little bit of fear is a good thing, right? ? it keeps your attention up and keeps you focused. i think too much fear is the terrorists winning. i think one of the responsibilities of a leadership of the countries in the west is to find the right balance there between helping people
8:40 am
understand what the risks are, but not affecting the way they live day-to-day. >> why is intelligence to bad? >> because it's not easy to collect intelligence in a denied area, right? it's not easy to collect intelligence in a war zone. right? we are not -- we are not on the ground in an embassy, right, in the middle of the islamic caliphate. so developing human sources takes a lot of time. i'm absolutely confident it's going to get better. it's already gotten better but it needs to be a lot better. >> what you need to pick off these leaders? >> yes. >> does it mean we might have to give up some of our privacy for security? >> i think we are going to have that debate again and i think it is going to end up with more of a focus on security rather than privacy. >> you have talked about -- this is a game-changer. let's not forget the beirut bombings and downing of a russian airplane and now paris. their reach is global. >> we are at a new place that we haven't been before, right? from two perspectives. one is their ability now to reach out and attack us where we live. two, the types of targets they

have chosen. to traditionally al qaeda went after big symbolic targets, right? and -- >> the pentagon, the world trade center. >> exactly. isis went after government targets, military targets, "charlie hebdo." you can't sympathize with that but you understand it, right? when you go after targets where people conduct their lives every day, right, it creates a new dynamic. >> this is going to be embarrassing to you, mike, but i just want to say it. there is a political blog says good morning the sharpest on the analyst is michael morrell a former cia director. to congratulations. >> thank you. >> thank you for being here. >> i don't think that is embarrassing at all. i like that. thank you, michael morrell. i'm glad your at this table. antibiotics can be dangerous, even if you are not taking them. dr. holly williams is here in studio 57 with an a

8:46 am
antibiotics. we have talking about tracking super bug in fact, and and leading to longer hospital stays and even death. holly, good morning. a global health crisis. what are some of the misconceptions that this survey points out? >> this is a very large survey done. almost 10,000 people were interviewed. some of the most common myths still exist in huge numbers. about 64% of people who were surveyed believed that antibiotics cured the common cold and flu. which, in fact, they don't. both of those illnesses are viruses and antibiotics have no effect against them. >> wow. >> another very common misconception was that if you start to feel better, that's when you stop taking your antibiotics rather than completing the full course. so if someone starts to feel better on day two or three, they may not go for seven days. that does two things. it increases the risk that your infection isn't properly cleared. you know how sometimes people will say my infection came back. it was never actually gone in the first place. but the bigger global issue is
8:47 am
that that causes the emergence of superbugs. these are bacteria which are resistant to all antibiotics. >> there is a misunderstanding about bugs resistant to drugs. what is has? >> about two-thirds of the people interviewed believed that antibiotic is when your body bx resistant to the antibiotics. it's the bacteria that becomes resistant. bacteria are very smart. if they have been exposed to antibiotics on a regular basis they evolve and grow in ways the antibiotics can no longer kill them and why superbug infections are so deadly. you become infected and nothing on the market can treat it. >> are they contagious? >> they can be. they can be passed to person-to-person and more common settings is staph skin infection and spreading in dorm rooms and locker room rooms or in hospitals. >> what do you want us to do with this information? i know people grab a z-pack at
8:48 am
the slightest little thing. >> think the world health official wants to broaden our understanding of this. they are trying to hold back on the antibicycles botics. they are used in livestock and it helps the livestock to grow faster and better and keeps them health care in industrial ago agricultural segments. last month, governor jerry brown in california passed a legislation limit being the use in animals and all of those steps should help. >> as a physician to clear up some of those misconceptions for people, the common cold or flu is not cured by antibiotics? >> absolutely not. >> when you get an antibiotic, take it all the way to the end? >> that's it. that's it. even if you feel better on the
8:49 am
first day, complete the entire course. don't share your antibiotics. don't take any leftover antibiotics if you find them in the cabinet. also the biggest thing is we should try not to get sick. get your vaccinations and wash your hands. >> get your flu shots. >> spread the word. thank you, holly. >> thank you. you are watching "cbs this morning." we will be right back.
