also matthew rojansky and bob baer. let me go to you, matthew.ne of the problems now, you've had this terrible atrocity in boston. will the russian authorities be that keen to try and establish this could all have been predicated by activity in dagestan? >> i think the last thing the russian authorities are likely to do at this point is to reveal whether it's true or whether it's simply speculation that something could have been done on their part to stop the attack. i think it's much wiser from the russian perspective now to simply look forward and say, look, we'll help you unravel and investigate what actually happened. if that means they've got to conceal opportunities they had they indeed missed or they intentionally suppressed, i think they're going to do that. but looking forward, i do think it's in the russian interests, as well as the u.s. interest to ensure that we're talking and sharing intelligence. that, after all, was the whole point of reset back in 2009 that officials ought to talk to each other, because we're on the same side of a

former massachusetts homeland security director julia kiham and bob baer. this news of the russians twice expressed concerns to the u.s. about the elder brother to the cia, also to the fbi, and this word that the cia wanted to place the elder suspect on a watch list back in 2011. what do you make of it? >> actually, to me sounds fairly routine. the first request of the fbi was a foreign law enforcement cooperation request, which is pretty common. we send them to the fsb, the fsb sends them to the fbi. they wanted them essentially to cover leads, to do an investigation into his background and possible ties on u.s. soil. the request to the cia, which is legally barred from investigations on u.s. soil, was to ask if they had any leads and concerning overseas intelligence. and when you have somebody who is the subject of basically an assessment, is this person instituting a threat either on u.s. soil or russians, gathering information, that's one of the people you would place in tide. and that's the terrorist identities data mart environment. basically the whit

with me is bill gavin and former cia operative, bob baer. bob, let me start with you. you a clip. this is from nick payton-walsh's interview with the boston bomb suspects' mother, zubeidat. the reason it's significant will be obvious once i've played it. listen to this. >> misha, everybody is talking about misha now. i don't know, misha, when misha visited us, we just kind of -- he just opened our eyes, you know, really wide about islam. he was really -- he's devoted and is very good, very nice man. >> if you put this together, bob, with the fact that we now know that the russians asked for information from the fbi about this mother, too, we're getting a picture not just of the radicalization of tamerlan, the older brother and then perhaps moving on to his younger brother in the later stage, but also the mother. she seems to have been just as radicalized and this interview would seem to confirm that this mystery character that so many family members are talking about, misha, may have been partly responsible for that. what do you make of it? >> well, he sounds so far li

joining me is jim maxwell, retired fbi agent and also bob baer, bill gavin and cnn national securitylyst, fran townsend. we'll bring back assistant director of the fbi, chris swecker. let me start with you, jim maxwell, since you're here. you're a retired special agent who specialized in the bomb area. this is the kind of bomb that we're talking about, a pressure cooker. fairly crude device but in this case, extremely effectively executed. what do you make of the development today with the two suspects given that it clearly shows a team? >> yes. this type of device basically, based on what i've seen so far, would be used to deliver low explosives, something that moves 3300 feet per second, less than that amount. and this device is popular for low explosives, the common vessel would be a pipe bomb. well, in this particular case, they decided to use this kind of vessel and what it does is it allows low explosives to build up pressure inside the vessel and then it will increase the potency of the explosion by containing that pressure. >> bob baer, let me bring you in here. every day we'

know there's another reason it's very different and that's that the americans were sponsors just bob baer and that's not having the desired effect counting jobs thinks that he can beat people into submission but these are guys suffered for eleven years and there is nothing this can throughout them that they haven't seen before so they're just not going to put up with that now what you've got to really worry about is that it's going to be different in another way which is that people are going to die and that's what i'm most concerned about is that not just shack a bit i've got fifteen plants down there still and i'm very concerned that more than one of them will end up getting out of guantanamo in a coffin i think that's a realistic possibility i think shakhtar could die just because of his physical ailments i mean this is a guy who's told me before that he's slowly falling apart. in a step by step that he would have to go on hunger strike for me to worry about him because the litany of his physical ailments is a page not and he's not getting proper treatment for and so he and other peopl

also joining us, former cia officer bob baer.t do we know about what the older brother did in the six months that he was back in russia last year? >> reporter: well, speaking to the aunt, although he arrived here according to u.s. officials in january, she wasn't aware of him turning up until march, so it's a slight gap where we don't know quite where he was. he then hung around family members here, making perhaps a couple of trips to see relatives in chechnya. he appears to have been joined by his father in round about may as well but the key thing, the aunt noticed, was how much he had changed from the five years before when she had seen him, he had been that time in america and had become a very devout muslim, she said, saying it should be in the very center of his life. he actually refused to even look women he wasn't related to in the eye. after of course his return to the u.s. in july, we do know that on his youtube channel, he posted a link to extremist militant video here in the north caucasus in dagestan, a man who subse

. >> also joining us is bob baer, formerly cia officer with extensive experience in the middle east, throughout the world. bob, as you watch this operation unfold, and when you hear the information from several sources that a foreign government did request that the fbi interview the older brother, i believe it was back in 2011, if i'm not mistaken, after he returned from russia, do you see that as very significant or is that the kind of thing more routine? >> no. that's significant. it was probably the russians came to the cia or the fbi and said look, we think this guy may have been recruited, what's he done, where has he been, what's his status in massachusetts. the russians are really in control in terms of intelligence of the north caucasuses, whether dagestan or chechnya. they have the expertise, they speak the languages. the cia and the fbi have pretty well stayed away from these regions because they are so complicated. they haven't been a threat to date. and so we defer to foreign governments. now, we don't entirely trust the russians on this because he may have simply been a

and christiane, he was with the cia for years and years, what do you make of what bob baer said, thereen reporting since, you know, this all became clear. but both the fbi and the russians are busy kind of blaming each other for having let this trip -- this trail perhaps go cold. but what's clear is what bob baer said, and that is the russians do know much more than the united states about whatever kind of radicalization is going on. and president putin has said -- for giving asylum, it will come back to bite you. you can imagine he's kind of saying, i told you so. but beyond that, i think we need to before jumping to any conclusions because there are no conclusions as to whether these boys were at all radicalized over there. we need to say that many of the dagestani, the leaders have said, this has nothing to do with us. we have nothing to do with them. most particularly, we are not at war with the united states. yes, we have our grievances and our attacks against russia, but we're not at war with the united states. and having said that, there is increased anti-russian radicalization

let's bring in former cia operative and cnn analyst bob baer. help us make some sense of this. the concern is that there was a slip, right? that this was someone you should have had eyes on, and you didn't. what does it mean to you? >> i think, you know, when i first looked at this, i didn't think it was an intelligence failure. i now do think it is -- there should have been, you know, an algorithm running through the databases. the first warning from the russians in 2011, his departure going to dagestan, like going to the tribal areas of pakistan, it is a red flag, his coming back, and, of course, the purchase of weapons, a cell phone call, that should have all been integrated into what is called big data. and the fbi should have been back on him and i think the fbi needs to explain why it wasn't. >> very important here. we have been very hot on this. and not because you want to blame. it is about safety, right? the concern is that you don't avoid the hard questions and looking at yourselves as coordinated agencies, just to cover yourself, because then you don't learn -- then

also, former cia officer bob baer and senior legal analyst jeffrey toobin. how significant is it that female dna has been found on one of the bomb fragments? >> well, the significance for me is the fbi is clearly looking for accomplices. they haven't closed this investigation by any means. they think there's a good chance out there that somebody helped at some stage, whether it's a bomb maker, to put this thing together, so they're very much on this and they're following every lead, but the circle seems to be still very wide. >> you think at the end of the day that the bomb itself, the devices themselves, will be the biggest keys in figuring out if these guys had help and from whom? >> yeah, anderson, it's funny. i just got off the phone with a bomb expert who spent three years making these, teaching himself. he was with the cia. he said look, it's ludicrous, that was his words, to say that these guys made this off the internet. you know, the way they learned it was they started with flash cubes first, to test the detonators, then small amounts of powder, an
