faced a related csis -- islamic extremists overran the americanmbassy in cairo, egypt. col. wood: their cpound had been breached and there were people now inside their buildings under protection of marine guards waiting for someone to bust into the rooms. to me, that would signal somebody should be getting those reaction forces ready to stand by and perhaps move. and then five hours later, when things occurred in benghazi, and again, the alarm bell went off, and there was no apparent pretty tough one to explain with -- >> with events transpiring in cairo, at the embassy in cairo, not to react may have been made very early on in the day, when those -- when those events were transpiring. so that by the time that benghazi happed, it wasnt going to happen because that decision wadas made early on. sharyl: if so, why isn't clear. but the attacks came eight weeks before the 2012 election. president obama had campaigned on the idea he'd sent terrorists running. pres. obama: al-qaeda is on the path to defeat and osama bin laden is dead. sharyl: critics say deploying the military to

let's bring in our correspondent standing by for us in cairo. what more can you tell us about this developing situation? karim: there was just a few minutes ago a statement by the ministry of interior about this attack. they are saying that it was two attackers, one of the attackers, 21-year-old student from giza, was shot and killed, another attacker was wounded seriously. it's said they came in with knives into the hotel through the restaurant and injured two austrian tourists and one swede itch -- swedish tourist. sarah: this is not first time we've seen egypt as the target of an islamist attack. is this threat increasing there, would you say? karim: we have of course already a problem, we had a problem after the russian airliner was brought down apparently by terrorist attack. only yesterday we had another incident in cairo where israeli tourists were shot. so obviously tourists seem to be a target right now not only in china but now for the first time also on the red sea as well as cairo. hurghada. it seems the issue is getting bigger now.

protesters in the cairo suburb have defied an official ban to not protest. thousands have homes have been searched. cold weather is causing major disruption across east asia. travel has been disrupted across japan after a cold front dumped snow across the country. temperatures in the far north of china have dropped to minus 40 degrees. the afghan government has held unofficial talks with the taliban in qatar. the group says its political office in doha is the only body authorised to carry out negotiations on its behalf reinforcing the authority of its new leadership. it first opened an office in doha in 2013. the pentagon has given wide authority for u.s. troops in afghanistan to hit targets linked to i.s.i.l. the afghan government is reporting progress after the group. there is an exclusive report from the district of action on the afghan pakistan border. >> reporter: on the front line of afghanistan's fight against the islamic state in iraq and the levant it runs through a vast mountainous area near the border with pakistan. we had a strong army escort up

we're looking at pictures of heavy security presence in cairo's square ahead of the fifth anniversary ahead of the revolution. is that presence warranted? >> frankly, i'm not in egypt, i'm not in cairo so it's hard to say conclusively, but it seems to me the situation in egypt is not on the verge of an uprising like in 2011, or anything like that. i think we're looking at a government that the president has zero toleration for descent. there would have been celebrations of 2011 and denuns yagss of 2013 and his election and so forth. that seems to be what the government is afraid of or what they're termed should not appear to the streets of cairo or anywhere else in egypt on the an anniversary >>> is it because of the fifth anniversary, given protests are banned and so many people are critical of the government, they are already in prison and as far as we can tell no-one is really calling for more protests, and yet we're seeing-- >> that's not exactly true. among those people arrested in the past few days are people who managed facebook pages that were calling for demonstrations. wheth

let's get the latest from our correspondent in cairo. here is what he told us. reporter: we are getting unconfirmed reports that at least three gunmen in this attack on this hotel, in the red sea resort, unconfirmed reports that one of the attackers was wearing a suicide belt, and that the attack was foiled when a security guard killed at least one of the attackers. the situation appears to be stable. this attack comes days after another incident in a part of southern cairo, where gunmen opened fire on a hotel. there were no injuries but there was an israeli tour bus that was near the hotel and it seems to be the apparent target. in that attack, the local islamic state group claimed responsibility. but we don't know anymore details as of yet of this attack. we do know is this is one of the last resorts in egypt that had been spared from this kind of violence. we have seen others, like shot arm-al-sheikh,h and others where tourists come to see sites and have been attacked. this is one of the last bastions of tourist resorts where western tourists would come. this

they had small protests outside of cairo. it was a sad and almost difficult day today for egypt.ew government collapsed after being agreed on in the united nations-backed initiative. saidkers from the bloc that the proposals from the governments included too many posts. they are giving the president's 10 days for a shorter list of ministers. getting ready to begin it later today. clear who will be at the negotiation table. they say the priorities of the talks are clear. >> the first priority is to what mosttalks on syrians, if not all, want to hear -- the possibility of a broad cease-fire and stopping the threat of isil. therefore, thanks to a broader cease-fire, an increase in it monetary aid. >> does france need to send troops? that was suggested by the president of the region. were stormed over the weekend. we had the latest. >> seeing the situation for himself, the head of the french arrived and met with the mayor to find a solution fast. the state is the head of the army and i believe that only the army can secure the sites that need to be safeguarded here. not security forc

to hear the speech, and he called me from cairo.he said, "this is a disaster. this is a disaster." i said, "tell rahm. tell him, because they need to do something about this. this is really going to lose the israelis." >> narrator: the president then left the middle east. to the surprise of many, he did not stop over in israel. >> the message of president barack obama's historic speech in egypt... >> worse than anything, while he was there, a 45-minute plane ride to israel, he didn't stop there. he just went on his way. >> the israelis were insulted. i mean, you're coming into the neighborhood, can't you drop for coffee? we're just so close. i mean, cairo, tel aviv? come on, say hello, we'll be nice to you! >> don't forget, he went to turkey, saudi arabia, egypt. he didn't go to israel. for israelis, the combination of not visiting and the speech sent them a very strong signal that he didn't like them. >> narrator: the decision to skip israel had been advocated by the president's senior foreign policy advisors. >> ben rhodes and den

. >> an arab league summit in cairo is expected to be dominated by tensions.ichard -- riyadh requested the talks. saudi arabia cut diplomat, ties with rain after its em -- iran after its embassy in tehran was stormed by protesters, who were angry at the execution of a muslim cleric. our next guest spects most of the arab league to support saudi arabia. >> i think they were trying to start the campaign after what happened to the embassy. after the g.c.c. supported saudi arabia with the position, the arab league discussions the same. saudi arabia has interests to see more arab states. they are not only attacking the embassy, but having support in the arab league will strengthen the saudi position. maybe we'll see lebanon, algeria, but the motion will be supported by 15 to 18 arab counties which is enough to support. there was expectation, as unusual between what has been done before iran and the united states. but it seems that they have a strong position. they have no interest to open a discussion with iran. there are different areas. they want to make sure tha

and just in the last ten days there were 5,000 raids in cairo.se are raids that lead to a rests or perhaps just some pointed questions. but that is a raid every two minutes in cairo. that sends a very direct signal. and that is why we saw no opposition on the street. and that is why one opposition activist put it this way. there might be freedom of speech in egypt, but there is no freedom after speech. an many activists right now are saying that this government is the same kind of government they risk their lives to escape five years ago. >> sreenivasan: all right, so besides that indirect message through those crackdowns, what is the government saying. >> it is important to know that president sisi came out yesterday and praised the revolution of five years ago am but he praised even more what he called the fix to that revolution, namely the military cou p that brought him to power. and he defends a lot of these security crackdowns as the only way to defend egypt against the insurgency, especially groups that are affiliated with isis right now.

, at the embassy in cairo, not to react may have been made very early on in the day, when those -- when those events were transpiring. so that by the time that benghazi happened, it wasn't decision wadas made early on. sharyl: if so, why isn't clear. but the attacks came eight weeks before the 2012 election. president obama had campaigned on the idea he'd sent terrorists running. pres. obama: al-qaeda is on the path to defeat and osama bin laden is dead. sharyl: critics say deploying the military to terrorist attacks could have been viewed as more harmful to the campaign than the incorrect explanation the administration gave -- that protesters attacked after being whipped up by an anti-islamic youtube video. >> i know, i understand. sharyl: a special forces soldier for 24 years, wood says his team and u.s. diplomats in libya were briefed that if they evever got into trouble, those special forces in europe were tasked with coming to the rescue. col. wood: they're kept in a high state of readiness just for that purpose. so they're willing and able and ready to jump, they're like the fire

protesters in cairo have defied a ban. there has been a round up of the protesters and thousands of homes have been searched. in a tell viced address the president said the government must enforce security and order. -- televised. it was driven by young people but five years on many feel betrayed by the outcome in egypt. >> reporter: it was supposed to be a new dawning as millions of egyptians came together. people from all faiths, backgrounds and ages united in the call for change. nearly 50% of egypt's population is less than 24 years old, so the youth were the driving force of the revolution. even opposing football fans, they joined the protests. it started with the technical savvy generation that gallon n vannised crowds. we were not into politics. we just knew this is wrong and we should speak up to that. that's exactly what happened. >> reporter: it was a period of demanding political freedom, even walls became canvasses. it was much later that organized groups and forces joined the protesters, all calling to an end

. >>> people are seen marching through the streets of a neighborhood in central cairo. >> the revolution in 2011 was driven by egypt's young people. five years on, many feel betrayed by the outcome. we have this report. >> it was supposed to be a new dawn, as millions of egyptians came together. people from all faiths backgrounds and ages united in the call for change. nearly 50% of egypt's population is less than 24 years old. the youth were the driving force of the revolution. even opposing football fans joined the protests. it started with a tech savvy generation that galvanized crowds through social media and mobile phones. >> the youth were the leaders of what was happening. also, we were not into politics so they don't care or know much you about politics, who's right wing or leftwing. that we just knew this was wrong and we should speak up to that. that's exactly what happened. >> it was a period of demanding political freedom, even walls became canvass. it was much later that organized groups and political forces joined the protestors, all calling for an end to decades of tyranny

protesters in the cairo suburb have defied an official ban to mark five years since the start of thegyptian revolution. over the past few days there has been a round up of activists and thousands of homes have been searched. cold weather across south-east asia today has disrupted the countries. in taiwan 57 people died in the country. staying with that weather-related theme, clean-up teams are working around the clock in cities up and down the eastern seaboard. federal offices in the capital remaining closed today. more than 18 million people have been affected by the storm. >> reporter: the sun came out again and so too did people looking for help to dig their cars out of mountains of snow. >> anybody stuck, anybody finally get out, some people have patience and some people don't have patience, but when you go to a neighborhood and see people come out laughing. >> reporter: the one-day vehicle ban is over. it was new york's second largest blizzard in 150 years. >> all it takes is one car to get stuck and now that road is not passable and the ploughs can't plough that road and the si

we saw an extraordinary meeting yesterday in riyadh, today an arab league summit in cairo. what's the objective here? what's the message saudi arabia is trying to send? >> saudi arabia wants to send strong political message to iran that there is strong front against iran's policy in the region, a strong, i would say front is not only from the arab countries -- >> but is the front as strong as they want it to be? we've seen a more sub sued reaction from morocco, tunisia which called for caution, and you have other countries, the more vulnerable like sudan who simply recalled their ambassadors and the e. downgraded ties. there seems to be no consensus. >> i agree with you on what you have said, however, you know, the saudis do know that this is a diplomatic political message. they know that front is not as strong as it should be, but this i also one of the steps saudi arabia are moving or trying to impose on iran. the foreign minister of iran and saudi arabia did announce that this is not only first step. i think what's important is just the announcement. i agree that there i

they don't want blood on the streets in cairo.ot of people who say, listen, i would rather take some stability than full freedoms. i want somebody to take control, take the reins here. the state has done a very good job of scaring people. there are fears about the sinai, as tarek mousad said. there are what some have described as really crimes on behalf of the state. violence, as we saw two years ago, where nearly a thousand people were killed to break up a sit-in. it's a time where all opponents, all critics of the government seem to be being jailed. many of the people who stayed on this path of reform and change that they wanted, even when they opposed the brotherhood as well as now the military, a lot of those leaders, so to speak, those young leaders are in jail. >> tarek, this question that you asked leila about sort of where the revolutions are, and where the revolutionaries are, it's really difficult for me to think about egypt's revolution without alternatively feeling either really stupid or really callous. you know, i re

the chi knee-- cairo. it has included a crackdown on dissent. at least 10 people have been killed in an explosion in the egyptian city of giza. the bomb went off west of cairo. several police officers are among the dead. 13 others are injured. the bodies of five attackers were found inside the building where the raid was carried out. a group of syrian children who had been living in a refugee camp in the french city of calais have now been reunited with their families in britain. it happened because a group of u.k. activists won a court case against the government. they argued that the children had the right to be reunited with their guardians. >> reporter: this small group of three teenagers and a disabled man simply pick you had especially up their stuff got on the train, sat for an hour and got off again in london. within an hour they were being greeted prooifltly by their relatives who were already living in britain. in a nearby cafÉ, the brother of one of the teenagers could barely contain his excitement at the prospect of being able to loo

today, there was increased security around cairo as egypt marks the fifth anniversary of the protestsch toppled the former president. dozens of policemen were deployed in the square. a warning from the new regime that demonstrations will not be tolerated against the current president, abdul. critics say that the president is an autocrat who has betrayed the hopes of those who took to the streets five years ago. we have a report. into here square, a show devotion to egypt's latest strong man. the president. the turnout was low. the security forces were there in numbers to prevent any new -- stirrings of unrest in the birthplace of the revolution. a familiar face of a police state on display. while the authorities have done their utmost to ensure that only supporters of the president are here today, in the past two weeks, they have rated about five houses in central cairo. looking for anyone who might be preparing to demonstrate. five years on, protests are virtually banned in egypt. as many icons of the revolution that took place here in tahir square, are now behind bars. this is a ver

yesterday in riyadh, today in cairo, the arab league i guess meeting. what do the saudi's wants to? >> i think that they want the same thing they wanted yesterday to come in front of all arab countries. yesterday, they did the regional, today they want to do it in the whole arab perspective. two weeks or three weeks ago, they tried to establish a kind of islamic alliance considered by some people a sunni alliance against iran. i think they are trying to get support from all the region against iran. >> ok, let's pause and listen to what the arab leaders are saying in cairo right now after their extraordinary meeting. >> iran supports the militias to commit violence in some arab countries for so long time and the kingdom of saudi arabia and the arabs are saying enough is enough. if iran says it wants to positive role in the region, iran has to deal with the neighbors according to the good neighborhood and not to interfere into the internal affairs and to reject terrorism. iran can live in the region as a neighbor if iran stops these approaches, but if iran continues this approach, ira

okay, we are going to be meeting in cairo. we have a conference in cairo coming up in november, why don't you come down and meet with us there. joe said, no. churchill got bub -- biblical and talked about there being -- about setting up three tents in the desert in iraq and each one in their intent and meet there. he said, no. he wanted to meet in iran because it was close to soviet and wanted to meet close to soviet union because there were people inside his government that he didn't trust. to actually think about there wasn't anybody that he did trust . he was afraid of flying. he didn't want to go too far. the trip the tahran was his only one and only airplane ever. he refused and finally refused that meeting, meeting stalin was worth it. november 27th, 1943 they accept. meanwhile, inside the third, a guy named walter who is the guy that ran the covert operation's division of the ss, he got this idea that maybe we should try to take him out, one room, three bullets, so he cooked up this scheme to assassinate the big three.

and expressed support for cairo efforts to maintain stability which included a crack down on decents is before the january 25 anniversary of the up rising that ousted mobarak is seen in the abdel-fattah el-sissi administration and china recently announced that the economy is growing at the slowest pace for 25 years but there is one thing that is increasing fast and that is public debt and lawrence lee reports from beijing and how that is hurting many sections of society. >> reporter: like many middle class wage earns in china he borrowed money from the bank to help buy a home and a car. he says he and his wife are financially prudent. >> see how much money we have now so we decide how much money we spend. >> reporter: their loans in macro economic terms are considered household debt and classed as non-state borrowing which makeup about a third of china's total debt. that's not the type of liabilities chinese policy makers are most concerned about. as china's debt grows faster than its economy, it is money loaned to state-owned enterprises and local governments that could be a credit
