abdelhamid abaaoud is a aitizen of belgium and allen pizzey is there. >> reporter: the people of abdelhamid abaaoud's old neighborhood came out in the thousands tonight, in a gesture the jihadists would d ve hated, a rally to show solidarity with the residents of paris. several young men who say they knew abaaoud described him as normal. "he dressed like me in a tracksuit, a regular guy." for becoming a jihadi, "before that he was a victim of discrimination," this man said. "people don't get radicalized because they want to. it's not like a trip to the store." so how did someone who won a scholarship when he was these youngsters' age grow up to be a terrorist? abaaoud was raised in this modest home in molenbeek, but the dark side of the multi- ethnic suburb apparently held more appeal than his family's clothing business. he became radicalized during a stt in jail for petty crime. released in 2013, he sududnly vanished, and showed up in syria under the name abu umar al baljiki, he started using social media to recruit jihadists. his s ofile shot to real prominence when he appeared in an isis propaganda video, dragging bodies behind a pick-up truck and reveling in the image it gave him. according to intelligence reports, he snuck in and out of europe to coordinate terrorist attacks. he bragged about it in an isis online magazine. whatever his self-imime may have been, as far as residents in this old neighborhood are concerned, as one put it, molenbeek already had a bad reputation. abaaoud hasn't done us any favors. scott? >> our veteran foreign correspondent allen n zzey in brussels. allen, thank you. >>> the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. almost sixty million americans e affected by mental illness. together we can help them with three simple words. my name is chris noth and i will liste from maine to maui, thousands of high school students across the country are getting in on ththaction by volunteering in their communities. chris young: action teams of high school students are joining volunteers of america and major league baseball players to heltrain and inspire the next generation of volunteers. carlos pea: it's easy to start an action team at your school so you, too, can get in on the action. get in on the action at actionteam.org.

time. holly, how difficult is it to keep extremists from crossing into europe from syria? >> reporter: scott, it's very difficult. at least six of the attackers are thought to have spent time in syria. at least one was apparently known to french authorities as an extremist but w w still able to travel to syria. part of the problem is isis has no respect for national borders. its fighters are smuggled across the turkish border into syria, and one of the paris attackers appears to have posed as a refugee in order to enter europe. >> now, the u.s. today said it would help turkey fortify its border? is that going to help? >> reporter: that border is 500 miles long and it is porous. i spoke to a senior turkish official yesterday who said that as long as isis exists in syria, it will be impossible to stem the flow of extremists across that border. the other problem is intelligence sharing. that turkish official said turkey had warned frce twice about one of the terrorist attackers, last year and again this year, over concerns that he may have traveled to syria, but french officials didn't follow up until after the paris attacks. >> holly williams. thanks, holly. ththe are well over 100 americans fighting for isis in syria. according to secretary of state john kerry. in paris, we asked kerry whether the wider goals of isis have now gone international. he calls isis by its arabic acronym daesh. >> the only goals i can define of daesh are to enforce their twisted view of the caliphate, which has nothing to do with to license rape asashe will of god, of non-muslim women, to be able to kill yazidis because they're yazidi, kill shia because they're shia, kill christians because they're christian. that's'shat they do. >> now they're exporting that wholesale. >> well, let's see how wholesale it is. theye exporting it, yes, but most of the folks i've heard responding, and particularlylyn the muslim world, do not accept this. >> president obama wants the u.s. to take in thousands of syrian refugees fleeing the syrian civil war. but republicans are trying to stop him. margaret brennan is traveling with the president in manila. >> reporter: president obama@ lashed out at republican presidenenal candidates who said the u.s. should not accept any syrian refugees. >> these are the same folks oftentimes who suggested that they're so tough, that just talking to putin or staring down isil or using some additional rhetoric is somehow going to solve the problems out there, but apparently they're scared of widows and orphans coming into the united states of america as part of our tradition of compassion. >> reporter: and mr. obama warned, thpolitical backlash is helping isis. >> i cannot think of a m me potent recruitment tool for isil than some of the rhetoric that's been coming out of here during the course of this debate. >> reporter: the administration plans to accept around 10,000 syrian refugees over next year. of the more than 2,000 refugees admitted since the start of the syrian war, more than 40% are children under 14, and only 2% are single males of combat age. the president says they're thoroughly vetted over a nearly two-year process, and he dared his critics to come up wita better system. >> theheve been playing on fear in order to try to score political points. or to advance their campaigns. and et's irresponsible. d it's contrary to w w we are. and it needs to stop, because the world is watching. >> reporter: tonight, white house officials said the president will veto a republican bill that would make it even harder for syrian refugege to enter the u.s. and, scott, despite the uproar, there are no plans to changehe refugee policy. >> margaret brennan traveling wiwi the president in mamala tonight. margaret, thank you. now with the response from the republicans, here's major garrett. >>>i got to tell you, it is utterly unbefitting of thehe president to be engaging in those kinds of personal insults and attacks. >> reporter: texas senator ted cruz hit back at the president for suggesting those who do not want to accept syrian refugeeses are e american. >> i would encourage you, mr. president, come back and insult me to my face. >> reporter: a new poll shows more than half of americans want the u.s. to stop admitting syrian refugees, a sentiment echoed by most of the republican presidential field, including marco rubio and john kasich. >> it's not that we don't want to accept people, it's that we cannot, because we cannot nduct effective, reliable background checks. if you admit 10,000 people and 9,999 of them are good people and one of them is an isis killer, you have a problem. >> we just have to make sure that we're not inviting people in here who pose a threat to us, who come in under the cover of refugee status, whose view it is to come in here and destroy us. that's not unreasonable for america to say no. >> reporter: in south carolina today, former florida governor jeb bush for the first time called for direct military engagement against isis. >> the united states, in conjunction with our nato allies, and more arab partners will need to increase our presence on the ground. >> reporter: and donald trump began runnnng radio ads in earlyly voting states. bomb the hell out of isis. we'll rebuild our military and make it so strong. no o o, and i mean, no ononwill mess with us. >> reporter: the white house said today not one of the more than 2,000 syrian refugees allowed into the u.s. has been arrested or deported for terrorism m fenses. scott, in that poll we referred to, 69% of republicans opposed admitting new syrian refugees. >> major garrett in washington tonight. major, thank you. did isis bring down that russian jetliner w wh a bomb in a

>> i think it would depend on where they placed it on the plane and how much explosives are in a soda can, but i believe it could. >> reporter: isis published the image in its official propaganda magazine along w wh this message: revenge was exacted upon those who felt safe in the dock pills she the cockpits of their jets. the group's claims that the soda can bomb brought down the russian plane has not been verified. just yesterday the russian government confirm the crash in egypt's sinai peninsula was caused by terrorism. and president vladimir putin vowed to hunt down those responsible for killing all 224 people onboard. investigators say an airport insider in sharm el sheikh may have planted the bomb, and the russians say it contained about two pounds of tnt. a u.s. counterterrorism official says isis in the sinai is one of the groups most active and potent affiliaias. how do you stop something like this from getting on a plane? >> good security screening methods, vetting your people, things of that nature. >> reporter: isis is kwn to bobot about its successful terror operations and it's published details about other attacks in the past. scott, out of an abundance of caution, an advisory was sent to u.s. law enforcement to be on the lockout for similar types of bomb components. >> jeff pegues, thanks. a big story back home is the violent weather in the northwest, and a tragic loss for flutie when we come back. >>> at least three people were killed and thousands are without electricity after hurricane-force nds howled across the northwest. david begnaud is in the hard-hit city of spokane, washington. >> oh, my god. >> reporter: 70-mile-per-hour winds toppled 175 trees in the city of spokane, washington, in less than an hour tuesday. >> that was going quick-- oh! >> reporter: overnight, residents were told not to go outside. the warning came after a woman died when she was struck by a falling treeee another woman was trapped in her car after this tree collapsed onto it. neighbors rushed to her aid. >> she was stuck in there for about ten minutes, but we finally got her out on the passenger side. i asked her to rub my head for good luck because she is a very fortunate young woman. >> reporter: today, work crews were spread d t across the city repairing downed power lines. this tree fell onto the home of 83-year-old don roadifer. how severe was the wind around 9:00 p.m. when the neighbor's tree fell on your home?
