welcome to "cbs this morning." the president obama administration faces an unprecedented challenge to his foreign policy from within. 51 career diplomats from across the state department signed an internal memo calling for new military action in syria. it's sharply critical of the administration. >> multiple sources say secretary of state john kerry has also urged the president to do more. this morning, kerry says he has not seen the memo. according to his spokesman, he's been briefed and calls it an important state. margaret brennan with more from the white house. >> reporter: good morning. it is rare to see dozens of american diplomat formally object to u.s. policy. after five years of brutal war, some within the obama
7:04 am
with an estimated 500,000 dead in syria and thousands of refugees fleeing for their lives, dozens of american diplomats called for a radical change. the 51 state department officials who signed the classified internal memo argue that the u.s. should destroy syrian dictator bashar al assad's military might. the diplomats told cbs news that assad has faced no consequence for his brutality, continuing to ignore assad while fighting isis is dragging out the five-year war, and they believe is creating new extremists. president obama has long been hesitant to intervene in another mideast war. in 2012, he threatened military action if assad used chemical weapons. >> we have communicate d with thery player in the region that
7:05 am
>> reporter: but backed off when assad killed more than a thousand people with an attack outside damascus a year later. isis has thrived inside the war zone. while mr. obama has committed teams of special operators to target isis leaders, he told charlie rose that u.s. military involvement would be sharply limited. >> that does not mean that we should be deploying troops everywhere where a crisis is taking place. we have to be judicious about how we use military power. >> reporter: on thursday, senator john mccain blamed president obama's policies in iraq and syria for the isis-inspired attack in orlando. >> he pulled everybody out of iraq, and i predicted at the time that isis would go unchecked, and there would be attacks on the united states of america. so he is directly responsible. >> reporter: mccain later said in a statement he doesn't hold president obama personally responsible for orlando. gayle, what is really remarkable
7:06 am
is that it was written by politically neutral diplomats, and they really hope that the white house doesn't dismiss this in the midst of a political campaign. the state department has to respond in 30 to 60 days. air strikes targeted u.s. trained rebels inside syria. the attacks in the southern part of the country hit forces who have received u.s. military support. they were equipped to fight isis. russia's military has been backing the assad regime. a center u.s. defense official says the strikes raised serious concerns about russia's intentions in syria. >> cia director brennan is offering a new take on the strength of isis that appears to contradict the president. brennan told the senate intelligence committee yesterday that u.s. efforts "have not reduced the group's terrorism capabili capability," and he cautioned there could be new attacks here at home. >> the group is probably
7:07 am
exploring a variety of means for infiltrating operatives into the west including in refugee flows, smuggling routes, and legitimate methods of travel. >> president obama recently touted gains in the fight. brennan also said the agency has been unable to find any isis link with the orlando gunman, omar mateen. we're following breaking news from the front lines of the fight against isis. iraq's military says its forces have retaken a cue government complex in the center of fallujah. iraqi troops have been battling for nearly four weeks for control of the city west of baghdad. libya palmer is following -- elizabeth palmer is following the latest from london. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. we're waiting for more detail on the iraqi orem's overall progress. this push to the center happened very early this morning about 6:00 local time. taking that government compound is certainly a big symbolic victory for the iraqi army. of course, the latest in a whole series of high-profile
7:08 am
for isis. it comes after, as you mentioned, almost a month of heavy fighting with the iraqi forces making slow progress through the countryside and villages surrounding the city itself backed by american air strikes. fallujah was the first iraqi city that isis took, and it's being con -- been consolidating its hold this for more than two years. the battle to bring it under government control has been fierce. the push for the center was no exception. may be that the isis fighters that had been there are escaping or escaped hiding among fleeing refugees, or perhaps they've withdrawn to areas outside the city center where the battle is continuing. an officer with the baghdad command center told us a little while ago that the iraqi army is now in control of roughly half of fallujah city, and that the remaining isis defensive lines are in disarray. gayle? >> t

the orlando terror attack investigation is looking closer at the gunman's wife. sources tell cbs news that noor salman was communicating with omar mateen during the shootings, and there is evidence that he may have done some of the planning with her. salman is cooperating with investigators, but she could face charges herself. we also know that one of the gun stores mateen visited before the attack tried to warn the fbi. jeff pegues is tracking that part of the investigation. jeff, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. investigators continue to examine forensic evidence and the digital trail of the killer and his wife. still no signs that plans for this mass shooting came from overseas. the theory continues to be that he was inspired to kill, and the focus for a motive is stretching back years into his troubled past. law enforcement sources confirm that mateen and his wife were texting as he carried out the attack. the words "i love you" were exchanged. investigators are still trying to determine the extent of his

memorial had sought safety in the nightclub's bathrooms. with no window and only one way out, the stalls became deathtraps when the gunman barged in. >> it was like 17 of us in there and only five of us made it out. >> reporter: worried the shooter would come back to finish them off, these survivors did their best to keep quiet and help those who were gravely injured. >> there was a guy, he was choking on his own blood. he wanted water so bad. we were trying to comfort him as much as we could. >> reporter: miguel leiva recorded videos and sent him to his girlfriend hoping she would stop calling. >> everybody whose phone was ringing, any noise he heard, he was going that direction and shooting and killing people. i didn't see his face. i just remember seeing the sparks coming from the front of the muzzle of the gun. but it sounded like he was having -- enjoying himself. he didn't care at all. >> reporter: in another bathroom, club promoter orlando torres hid on
7:14 am
when omar mateen walked in. >> that's when he started pop, pop, pop, pop, pow, and shooting at the people in the other stall. they were screaming. >> reporter: torres said mateen returned a few minutes later, and his gun apparently jammed. >> nobody made a move because i think everybody was still didn't have the strength in their legs to run out and tackle him. >> reporter: as police surrounded the club, torres says an injured man crawled into a stall causing him to fall off the toilet and on to the floor. his back was to the killer. >> i felt a nudge on my left hip, and i did not -- i did not move. i just laid there as if i was dead. >> reporter: leiva, who had been shot in the foot, says a 911 operator connected his group with a police hostage negotiator outside the nightclub. >> we followed their instructions to the t, and we just stayed focused and tried not to panic. [ gunfire ] >> reporter: they were finally freed
7:15 am
walls. >> i was helping them carry the guy we were trying to keep alive. that's when the gunman came from behind us and started shooting at the s.w.a.t. again. that's when i got shot in the leg, and that's when the police killed him. >> reporter: leiva says he is a cancer survivor, and in this case he was only just released from the hospital on wednesday. he says he's uninsured. with months of therapy and rehab ahead, he did start a gofundme page to pay for medical bills and living expenses, gayle. >> details are just terrifying. thank you very much. the senate is likely to vote in coming weeks on tighter gun laws. a filibuster lasted nearly 15 hours. senate republican leader mitch mcconnell called it a campaign talk that-a-thon. the democrats say the gun-control plans would interfere with the constitutional right to bear arms. egyptian investigators this morning say they have

jo cox was brutally attacked. the gunman, tommy mair, had a gun and knife. witnesses said he rushed cox saying "britain first," the name of the anti-immigrant right wing party. other witnesses said cox got caught in a fight between mair and another man. >> i saw him pulling the gun and went like that. fired one shot. >> reporter: her murder comes on the homestretch of a bitter referendum campaign over whether britain should remain in the european union. elected to parliament last year, cox was an outspoken advocate for refugees. >> these children have been exposed to things no child should ever witness. and i know i personally would risk life and limb to get my two precious babies out of that hell hole. >> reporter: by the river thames, a memorial grew around the houseboat cox lived in with her husband and two young children. police are not saying anything about a possible motive.
7:18 am
nonprofit that tracks hate groups reported mair supported a neo-nazi organization in the u.s. and purchased a manual on how to make guns and explosives in 1999. mair's brother said he had a history of mental illness. cox's husband brendan believes she was targeted for her politics. "we must all unite," he wrote, "to fight the killed her." and the killing shocked the nation which has some of the toughest gun regulations in the world. semiautomatic weapons were entirely banned in the u.k. in 1997, just one year after 16 children were killed. to put this in perspective, it's believed there are about seven guns for every 100 people here in the u.k. staggering numbers, though, when you look at the u.s. -- 101 to 100 people. >> thanks, jonathan. wildfires in the west this morning are spreading fast. possible record heat is in the

7:37 am
the country has not changed its ways. the london olympic games were sabotaged by russian athletes who shouldn't have been competing, according to the world anti-doping agency. it took years of mounting evidence before the agency finally acted. helmut baldis is general secretary of the austrian athletics federation. isn't it incredible that this was allowed to go on for so long and nobody did anything about it? nobody investigated? >> yeah, incredible. the good thing is that now things are changing, and we hope that we can start a new era of fair play and anti-doping worldwide. >> reporter: that may be an overnight statement because russia seems to be up to its old tricks. this week's report finds that since the ban was imposed, russian athletes appear to be dodging drug tests with over 700
7:38 am
tests. armed russian state security officers intimidating testers, and 52 russian athletes turning up a banned substance. russia claims it's been victimized, and its t's campaigning for its athletes to be allowed to compete at the rio olympic. the former head of russia's anti-doping lab has now apparently come clean saying russian officials switched up to 100 tainted urine samples with clean ones at the sochi winter olympics where russia topped the medal tally. a november report also alleges corruption within the international association of athletics federations itself. prosecutors say its former head accepted more than a million dollars in bribes to cover up russian doping. the problem, according to one point of view, is that some world sporting bodies have no
7:39 am
interest in properly investigating doping allegations because it damages the business of sports. that's why russia was able to get away with this for so long. gayle? >> thank you very much, holly williams in vienna. only on "cbs this morning," how the waze app plans to keep drivers away from riskier traffic. if you're heading out, you don't have to leave us behind. watch us live through the cbs all hi all-access app on your digital device. you don't want to miss tony hale from veep. he's just arrived in the toyota green room. hello. we'll be right back.

now a story you're seeing only on "cbs this morning." i love whether we can say that. waze, the smartphone app used by more than 50 million drivers, may actually make commutes a little longer today all in the name of safety. in the future, waze may also introduce a feature to warn drivers about routes that go through high-crime neighborhoods. before that, new orleans will be

one of the first cities where users could see a longer commute. kris van cleave is there and joins us this morning. hello to you, kris van cleave. >> reporter: good morning. now the app makers say this is all about safety. starting today, millions of drivers are going to see their waze to work different. it will happen first in los angeles, and then in new orleans. the app maker will minimize intersections like the ones we're coming up on. there's no stoplight here, and we'll be asked to cross six lanes of oncoming traffic. >> you feel nervous. >> reporter: this is what some waze users call a suicide straight. it's when the app directs drivers across multiple line of heavy traffic. another concern for some, when it suggests a left turn through that same multi-lane traffic without a light. waze's amber kirby says not anymore. starting first in los angeles, the app may sacrifice a little time for safety. when we drove with the new feature, it had us turn left on
7:45 am

7:47 am
i think we've that so far. >> reporter: that crime filter could be ready by the brazil olympic, but there's no timeline for when it might come to the u.s. as for the difficult intersections, it's in new orleans today, but it could be in los angeles, boston, and d.c. by the end of the year. >> all right. good to know. a stranger's split-second decision to get involved put himself in harm's way. ahead, the brave act that probably saved a

8:04 am
the cost and the benefit of our intervention are going to be different each and every time. i think what we can say is that wherever possible we should first and foremost try to get other countries to work with us to see if we can solve the problem, where the costs of our intervention are manageable and the benefits are potentially high, then i think it makes sense. >> margaret brennan is at the white house. good morning. i know you have spoken with some of the signatories. are there any specific policy recommendations that they are making? >> reporter: really this is an ppeal for a policy review. what the argument is here is that the u.s. has very little leverage to broker a peaceful end to the syrian war as long as assad is allowed to continue bombing civilians and bombing the u.s.-backed rebels. without stopp

will make a difference. the diplomats who wrote it really hope that what they are saying and arguing here isn't going to be lost in the noise of a political campaign. >> and what's the position of the military establishment? >> reporter: that's an interesting question because you get a lot of debate there, as well, as to the types of limited u.s. military action that would make a difference. and you certainly do not have anyone putting forth a proposal to stage an invasion of syria, something that the president often discusses. so there are some mixed opinions even within the pentagon, but there is definitely the view that if u.s. forces are asked, they are more than capable of taking out the threat from assad's air forces. the concern, of course, now is you also have russia backing up syria, and that makes it much more challenging. >> great reporting. thank you very much. and he helped create siri. tech pioneer doug kitlos is in studio 57 with his latest mission. he wants to take a

as technology is spreading on smartphones and devices like echo, silicon valley is taking note of a less mainstream product. it comes from two of the men who dreamed up siri before it was bought by apple. viv is a new generation of virtual assistant powered by artificial intelligence. creators believe that they are "radically simplifying the world by providing an intelligent interface to everything." dag kittlaus was
8:13 am
and ceo of siri and now viv. pleased to have you here. >> thank you. good morning. >> explain to us why viv is an advancement in using artificial intelligence to create virtual assistance. >> so, at its essence, most of the assistance that we use do a few dozen things. we want to open the system up and let developers build hundreds and thousands of times the number of capabilities. really it's like an opening up of the system and letting the world teach it. we think when you go from a few dozen to a thousand different thing to do, it becomes a much more important part of your life. >> do you think that siri wasn't doing something, you thought i'm going to come up with viv because she'll -- she is a she in my opinion -- because she'll be better? >> i think apple has done a great job with siri. this is a different approach. it requires a completely new platform to enable. and it's -- it allows the world to
8:14 am
>> why is it a different approach? what platform is different? >> so what's different about it is that anyone can teach it. so in siri, apple folks can teach it what to do, and i think they're making some new moves to allow more openness on that side. most of these platforms are very closed. so the watson program that beat "jeopardy," that was trained very much so to play that game. this system, anyone can come in and add new capabilities on the fly. it has to know its own capabilities while thousands of different developers are adding new things all the time. >> can you see what she does? >> yeah. absolutely. the first thing people notice is that it's something we call conversational commerce. i'll show you a few examples of how just talking to things can make buying and, you know, doing things a lot easier. >> okay. >> a few examples would be -- get me a

date is wednesday in november and ticketmaster pops in, and we're going to find a ticket there. >> tm is ticketmaster. >> how do you see that these virtual assistants will be used to transform or lives the next couple of years? >> i think at the end of the day, you'll be talking to more and more things. as speech recognition gets better, virtual assistants are far more capability, you'll find yourselves using it not just in your phone but your car and house. the number of things you'll use it to do will vastly increase. i think that's the net-net of this. of course that makes life simpler. gives you more time do other things that you don't really want to spend the time doing -- >> there may be somebody at home watching their demonstration and say, they set that up and planned that rather than it being -- showing the real capability of viv. how do you answer that? >> siri
8:17 am
>> they'll get their hands on it later there year. >> they can see for themselves. i was talking into somebody who knows you well, aka your wife, who says you're a visionary and deep thinker. if i was siri looking at you now, i'd be irritated. >> siri and i still have a close relationship -- >> he created -- >> created siri and now -- >> as the father of siri, he abandoned his child, went to create another child. >> there are no cage matches planned. >> what does siri and viv stand for? >> siri is a norwegian terms that means beautiful woman that leads you to victory. >> and viv? >> viv means life in several languages. the idea is that you're breathing life into inanimate objects and devices of your life by using conversation. >> let me finally get to this -- it's playing off her question. where can all this go? because you believe it can b
