why did rick white target churches?nvestigators believe white was angry at the first assembly of god church for turning down his membership application, but he couldn't bomb that church, at least not right away. it would have been too obvious. so, he chose the oakwood united methodist church as his first target, possibly because his ex-wife was a member. >> he was experimenting. he was trying to get different things to work, different initiators for the device, different triggering systems. >> the forensic evidence shows that white placed the pipe bomb in a green cooler, not caring who would pick it up. church member brian plawer was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. in the first assembly of god church bombing, white used a stronger bomb, since this was his primary target. he placed the bomb on top of an outdoor air conditioner. this one had a timer designed to explode during the sunday service. 33 people were injured. in october of 1998, a grand jury concluded richard white built both bombs and murdered bria

how could the white house not have been informed? >> well, if the white house didn't know, and i guess it is possible, then certainly, you know, something needs to be done so that the president of the united states has a full briefing about what is happening as it relates to, you know, any type of spying inside a major ally. germany in this case, but others. so that he can make an assessment as to whether that is worthy of pursuing in terms of national interest and security of the united states versus the damage that can be caused with relationships that are critical. so the president needs to know this so he can make his own judgment and decision. and if he doesn't know, then this is problematic because i can tell you that these german parliamentarians were so, you know, viscerally and emotionally moved by these issues that they took all of their time with myself and the ranking member, senator corker to focus on this and said this is a challenge to our relationship in germany. this is the singular question that germans are asking.

host: any idea from the white house as to when they want to make this decision? i know they're looking at nebraska but what is going on as far as the timeline? >> basically there is not one. the most recent delay you referenced is indefinite. based in what's happening in nebraska, it almost surely pushes it to after the midterm elections in november. many people are starting to

the white house weeks ago designate d this as a humanitarian crisis.hy is he not going to the border to look at this one? >> the president is very, very focused on this urgent humanitarian situation and meeting in texas with people who are trying to be part of the solution. he's engage d a whole of the federal government and sent his vice president to central america. in fact, secretary johnson is in guatemala today dealing with the situation. the whole government is involved in the situation at the border, in central america, in mexico. and around the country where we have facilities for these kids. this is a whole of government effort from the president on down. >> so do you expect there will be no blowback that the president will be in the state of texas at the fundraiser meeting with a governor to talk about the situation and refuses to go to the actual place where the crisis is happening? >> here's what we need and what we expect from the president and government, we be engaged in what's going to be most impa impactful in dealing with the situatio

i asked one white house official about that. she said the white house is not mad.hey're not focusing on who knew what and when. however, you would have to imagine that they are rankled by this. this administration official stressing the importance of the u.s./german relationship. i asked if president obama had reached out to chancellor merkel in the wake of that top cia official being dismissed. at this point, there's no information that he has done so, but i wouldn't be surprised if we saw a phone call if not today, within the coming days because, of course, this is a key relationship for the united states. the u.s. needs germany not just to help pressure russia over ukraine but also there's a lot of intelligence sharing over counterterrorism matters. so this is a key ally. there is clearly a lot of concern here at the white house. a big desire to smooth this latest rift, luke. >> andrea mitchell reporting that john kerry will be meet with the germans this weekend in vienna. i'm sure that will be a spirited, interesting meeting. let's turn to some issues at home,
