because it seems to be poppy, a strategy that's giving them what they want which is publicity. and i think they care not whether they make a pledge and whether they break it. they want the maximum publicity and the maximum instability for jordan right now. >> no question about that. let me go to chris voss former fbi hostage negotiator. as nic robertson says clearly it seems the card that they will -- isis may try to play next is this jordanian pilot, right? moaz -- this jordanian pilot who's being held. and i just want to note that he's not the only one. you also have john cantley, a british journalist being held there used in propaganda videos. you also have a 26-year-old female american aid worker being held by isis. what do you do? >> i think to start with some of the characterization is what's being described as important. what they're doing to these noncombatants, kenji goto who is in fact my view a hero these are murders. these aren't executions. they need to be looked at as murders as opposed to executions. they didn't accuse him of any crime. secondly i think what's go

be. >> poppy, you mentioned that sea of blue. and i have to say, i was sort of near the front of it but you could see nearly a mile down the road there are hundreds of police officers lining the streets but then thousands as you looked the long way. and many of those came in from out of town. they were not just nypd. we knew that jet blue flew in for free more than 1,100 police officers from different jurisdictions across the country. i saw and talked to many of them. i saw officers from as far as california virginia. i saw officers who drove in from cincinnati so that their patrol cars could also have a presence there. it was really amazing to see the amount of people that came together. not just police officers but also members of the community. >> a remarkable scene. a remarkable moment. also what stands out is a controversial moment when we saw, sarah, some of those officers turn their back when new york city mayor bill de blasio gave his eulogy. this despite the fact that their commissioner asked them not to do that again, a

>> monday morning the sun has just risen which means their search should be resuming any minute here. poppy, things seem to be changing in the sense that families are growing a bit more frustrated. not necessarily with officials but just with the weight. the weather proving to be absolutely frustrating. it's monsoon season and raining in the afternoons and things can change in the blink of an eye. they're telling me and i spoke to one in particular. he has four relatives on board including two young granddaughters and he is saying at this point there really is no information. they are just waiting and waiting and waiting. and poppy, that's got to be frustrating. at this point, 150 families roughly 150 families stimwithout answers as you mentioned. >> stevy? wow. ten years old. >> i know that the families are -- about compensation. er to put a number on it. some families though saying look. it's just too soon. it feels like if i sign this i'm giving up hope. a little bit more information on what exactly you ear signing and make them more comfortable. >> here with me again to talk about the s

government be reassessing? >> poppy, you're right.he problem with the french is they paid a lot of money for the hostages. almost inevitably the hostage takers went out and picked up some more and even japanese which aren't directly involved in the conflict but you should keep negotiations always going with these groups. the turks did it in iraq and got their people out of mosul from the islamic state. we don't know how much was paid if anything or favors were done. i think any of these groups whether al qaeda or taliban, we should keep some sort of back channel open to see what room there is and i agree with peter, you should never say never on negotiations. >> peter bergen bob baer appreciate it. >>> the mideast is in the middle of anheaval like no other. it has fallen to a group of rebels. this while al qaeda and isis continue to gain ground in syria and strengthen strong holes in iraq and in rock solid, frankly, saudi arabia our longstanding ally against terror of the king there has died and he's been replaced by a new king. every

be. what can you do to help? >> well what we do to help for example, poppy, is we negotiate for example, temporary mini-cease-fires which we did recently when you know along the front lines the villages are being heavily shelled, so the temporary cease-fires allow repair crews to come in. many, many villages are without power, without heating. also for humanitarian aid to get in. we are also see the wfp, the world food program coming in with a program as well as undp but the osce has seen itself as the early warning signal for this area. it does tend to fall out of the headlines. the worst thing that could happen is to avert its kay from the conflict in the ukraine. that's why we're increasing a number of monitors. by the way, a little over 10% of those are americans, and some of them for example, are former detectives law enforcement, military and we're protecting them with things like armored vehicles flack jackets. we are an unarmed civilian mission, the dangers are very real but we will stay on the ground as long as possible to report exactly what's going on on the ground. >> this has going on for months and m

thank you for being here. >> poppy, good to be with you, thank you. >> let's get your sense of this successorking salman. very old. same family. a lot of people are asking is anything going to change? will we see anything different? >> well, you say very old. he's 79. that is a culture that respects age and the wisdom that goes with age. salman as the governor of riad was known as one of the hardest-working people in government. he continued that trend as he assumed the portfolio of the ministry of defense and the crown prince. so i don't think age is an issue here. his health for a 79-year-old seems to be solid. and he's surrounding himself with a younger group of people that can help execute decisions. so i think we've got a positive transition here. >> so he's also been praised as a reformer. is that the reality? is there a real sense of reform that will get reform perhaps critically on some of the major human rights violations in saudi arabia? >> well poppy, you tend to think that an absolute monarch can do whatever he wants to do. and the reality of it is that king of saudi arabia has co

going to be the year where congress plows ahead without him and he's going to be left doing things by executive order, poppy. >> so, ben, one piece of advice for the president in 2015? >> don't overreach. don't go too far on your own because it's only going to backfire and hurt other democrats. they're going to be running for re-election or even for the white house. the worse thing you can do for hillary clinton or any other democrat is have america think that you don't care about congress and the people they sent there to actually make law. you got to work with them. if it doesn't, i think it will backfire on all the democrats running. >> mel, how long do you wait for congress to act? >> wow, ben, it actually sounds like you want obama to be successful that was good advice. i think the bottom line is that people have to realize that the american public did send overwhelmingly a huge message at the state and federal level and voted in republicans. what does that mean? they want congress to focus on the economy. they want congress to focus on simplifying the tax code. they want the keystone pipeline. these a

poppy. it's a huge piece of it. not the only piece to be frank but it is a big piece of it. we've seen in various situations we've been over the last few years in both afghanistan and iraq in combat that when the unemployment goes down you also get a decrease in attacks. when government starts to work you get a decrease in attacks. when people feel like they're contributing to a society in ways other than shooting weapons you get a decrease in attacks. so all of those are very important and critical to a strong population. >> zanab, to you in istanbul combatting the ideology is critical also the opportunity is critical. what do you think should be attacked at the root so we don't get to the point where people are able to carry out these horrific attacks or arrested on the brink of carrying them out? >> well we have to provide a counter ideology and counter options and solutions for everyone actually particularly the youth. i feel we spend much more time trying to understand isis and what they do while they are clear, actually. they are providing jobs $1,000 salaries for thei

so it's important, but i think there will be a lot of back and forth over and above just with the state of the union response poppyt i will say this is an important speech for the president because he's going to be putting down his markers for the last two years and it may be in keeping with what buck said he may not get some of this done, but he wants to change the debate and discussion and he's likely to do that with the proposals he's putting forward. we'll be watching very closely to all three of you. mack buck and you, rerebecca, thanks for coming on the program. >> the state of the union address is a tradition and as we were talking about, is it overdue for a change? is it time to rethink the entire speech? we'll talk about that next. financial noise financial noise financial noise you get sick you can't breathe through your nose suddenly, you're a mouth breather. a mouth breather! well, put on a breathe right strip and shut your mouth. cold medicines open your nose over time, but add a breathe right strip and pow, it opens your nose up to 38% more. so you can breathe and do the one thing you want to do slee

poppy. it isn't going to be a yes or no scramble that. there are a series of things that norad, north american air defense command will go through. that is a combined command between the u.s. and canada. so we're watching aircraft not only come into our shores but travel around the continental united states and transferring back and forth between all country in north america. to get back to your question though there are a lot of things that go into the decision to scramble an aircraft. it doesn't happen all the time. but when it does happen -- and i don't want to give away the intelligence that is associated with that -- there are a lot of parameters that are met. and it could be anything from a large passenger jet with a credible potential bomb threat all the way down to a small private airplane that might be headed to an area that has lost radio contact. but what we learned in 9/11 a lot of lessons learned from that period of time is you can't dismiss any of these threats. you have to take all of them seriously. >> no question about th

be a free man. unthinkable, poppy. >> it is unthinkable. also what changed dramatically isis asked the japanese government in order to get the two citizens back you have to pay us $200 million, and now they changed that demand. they want this iraqi woman prisoner in jordan for her attempt to detonate a bomb strapped to her confessing to it on television. ultimately the attack with her husband killed some 60 people. any sense of why isis shifted a demand and do you think they have a chance of getting jordan to release her? clearly, they decided there's no way, and we knew from the beginning it was impossible a $200 million ransom would be paid. some say it's a symbolic number because that's what japan contributes to the fight against isis in humanitarian aid. we know that the prime minister had at least one phone conversation several hours ago with the king of jordan. we also know that he has been again, in emergency meetings with the cabinet. but how much pressure can they put on jordan to release a convicted terrorist of an attack that kil

being of the son, my brother, my nephew. we are yet to hear from the jordanian government. they have been in a very tough position poppy, since isis really put jordan in that tough position really cornering jordan to either release that would-be female suicide bomber or they said they would kill both koeng and moaz and we have still not heard about the fate of that jordanian pilot. >> jomana thank you for that. we'll get back to you throughout the hour here on cnn. i do want to bring you sound just into us from japanese prime minister shinzo abe speaking publicly for the first time since this brutal brutal beheading. listen. >> translator: a video online has appeared that seemingly has killed mr. kenji goto. i feel very sorry for this matter and to the families. the government has tried its best to deal with this matter but we are deeply saddened by this despicable and horrendous act of terrorism, and we denounce it on the strongest terms. to the terrorists we will never never forgive them for this act. and to the act committed, we are going to coordinate with the international society so japan would never be defeated

thank you for being with me. >> thank you, poppy. >> you just wrote this article today "islam is in choking freedom everywhere." you said we need a modern comprehensive understanding of the religion of islam rather than relying on a discourse that has not changed for 800 years. to get to the root of this what needs to be done? >> those words you quoted aren't mine. those are the words of egyptian president al sisi. i think what he's pointing to is the fact that not so much the 800 years that i focused up on but in recent ages within the last 30 years being able to have this dialogue is becoming increasingly contracted even in our free world where we exchange information and we think about things and we debate things. that's come from a very explicitly islamist ideology. what we're seeing in paris now is an expression of violent islamist ideology. jihadism evolved as terrorism is an islamist value. but equally there's a nonviolent ideology which means shielding an idea my faith, islam, and privileging it above the rights of an individual for instance a moslem. that pseudoprotection of a beli

were grown from opium poppies and heroin is being refined that if you can delete those sources then you can reduce the amount of illegal drugs entering the country and subsequently claimed that you can limit the amount of addiction happening in the united states. another thing might the point about the history of the war on drugs is that each one of these countries i look at, thailand, burma and mexico, the strategies implemented their became pretty much permanent features of the drug war. signage and alternative development in thailand to that still going on today. it happened in thailand was the first large-scale attempt at that. mexico with herbicides and that continues to happen. and then burma is a strategy that we still see today. and burma there was a lot of illicit opium production, and they're still lives. at the time burma in the '70s became the largest illicit producer of opium. but in burley also had a civil war going on which meant the central government and a bunch of different rebel groups either based on ethnicity or there was a burmese communist party w

being yemen now? >> there is nothing surprising poppy, about the al qaeda and the arabian peninsula which is basically a network, affiliate of the al qaeda central. that is the al qaeda, osama bin laden, ayman zawahiri. the united states has been waging all ought war against al qaeda and the arabian peninsula since 2002 24 hours a day, literally. this is one of the most ambitious al qaeda groups that exists in the world today. this would come probably to your viewers as a surprise. the al qaeda affiliate in yemen is more ambitious and more dangerous than al qaeda parent organization of ayman zawahiri today in afghanistan and pakistan. it plotted several attacks. few groups that plotted several attacks against the american homeland and basically they were basically discovered by the u.s. security forces. and again, the attack in paris is obviously either directly or indirectly linked to al qaeda and the arabian peninsula, so the focus on al qaeda and the araba arab i don't know peninsula is not new. what is new is it has finally succeeded in other directly or indirectly carrying out a successful attack

these people to grow something else it will be better for them, in many respects these farmers have heard it made a rational economic choice and the poppies make sense. also, they are less intense and sometimes to cultivate particularly afghanistan takes a lot less water to grow poppies than it does week. so while the programs and a small successes overall, i don't take that they've had a great deal of success in limiting the amount of drugs being produced. traffickers adapt. and so if you break up one organization that her actions into smaller ones. demand is relatively stable in places like the united states or western europe or wherever there is high demand for narc on a such as heroin. i think another thing lots of people have talked about in the quote, unquote area of globalization where you have increased trade across the globe and not just traded goods, but also opening up the financial systems across the globe and target police when you have a real tension there contradiction on the one level saying you will increase the amount of free trade of legal good, but at the same time come and be able to police the trade in illegal goods.

>> reporter: well poppy, it did look like late last week late week on wednesday there would be a deal that there was hope the jordanian government said it was releasing to release the convicted suicide bomber ices had been asking for. thursday the government said that deal was off the deal a short time before the final deadline came out from isis saying sajida al rashawi had to be delivered by sunset or they threatened to kill kenji ifto and the jordanian pilot kasasbeh. the deal was off the deal until it was evidence of proof of life. there was evidence the pilot is still well and alive. they say they have demanding through indirect negotiations and channels request isis to try to release the pilot captured in december a mission of the anti-isis mission and his jet crashed in isis territory in syria. they have no sign he was alive and the jordanian government had been under pressure domestically that yes, they were trying to help the japanese government with their own negotiations but many here in jordan were putting the government under pressure to bring moaz kasabeh back. kenji got
