many isaf, nato, american personnel work, advise ministries, many training one can imagine the interior ministry we understand in that particular part where these americans were, there are about ten nato foreigners there, so that gives you a slight indication as to how secure this particular part of that ministry must have been in itself and the questions clearly circulating how did this happen, and immediate response from isaf's commander, general john allen as well as condemning the attack and calling the attacker a coward, is withdrawing all isaf advisors in and around the capital. unclear that will affect the nato training mission here, trying to get afghan forces ready to take over security here so nato could withdraw on the tight time table. the message is a deeply psychological impact on nato troops working here, this should have been the safest place and it feeds in protest in the quran burning. >> almost as if parallel would be if someone opened fire in the pentagon, slightly the equivalent. nick paton walsh, appreciate you bringing us the latest. >>> another developing story, nelson ma

officials that were shot in the head by an interior ministry employee. no i think it i think we've come to an important juncture and it's definitely the right approach to take right now to look seriously and ask some questions about what's going on there and whether the consequences of the effort that's been pending for a decade. remember generals betray us a mcchrystal told us this is a counterinsurgency effort this phase of the effort is the objective is to convince the afghans that we're their friends we're there to protect them we're not the enemy but i think what we can see in all these recent developments is that we have a real problem with that message right now and i think the the flare up surrounding the burning of the korans shows that very well it wasn't the worst possible sort of meltdown most leaders and afghanistan cold for call nevertheless it was persistent and went over on for a period of several days and involved incidents in many parts of the country it was extremely violent resulting in deaths and as you know we have that incident to

it happened at the afghan interior ministry in kabul. according to reuters, the dead are believed to be a colonel and a major. much more on this story as information becomes available. >>> meanwhile, people are taking to the streets for the fifth straight day in afghanistan to protest the burning of korans by international security forces. three people were killed today and another 50 were injured when protesters apparently tried to burn down a united nations building there. eight were killed in protests yesterday. president obama and the commanding coalition generals in afghanistan have apologized. >>> let's move to syria now and the humanitarian crisis there. the red cross hoping to get back into some of the hardest hit areas to get the wounded to safety. we are talking about homs. the city has been the he center of the uprighting and the main target of the military. activists say at least 17 people were killed there already today. joining me now is cnn's michael holmes live in beirut. >> well, going back into the besieged neighborhood

it happened at the afghan interior ministry in kabul. let's go to nick paton walsh, nick, what are you learning? >> reporter: a lot that is unclear, what we do know is two americans were shot dead in the interior ministry here in kabul. that should be one of the safest places, frankly, for them in the country. we do also know the taliban have claimed responsibility for this attack. naming the man they refer to as their holy warrior, saying he shot four american personnel, obviously at times they tend to exaggerate their claims of their acts here. unclear at this point from a senior security source, exactly who was behind this, pretty clear from isaf the individual was not a westerner, we can out internal dispute between nato forces and pointing toward the possibility of some kind of afghan being the gunman here, but this came up from the taliban. we hear quite often sometimes they are right, sometimes they're wrong but they always try to get political capital from instances like that. i should bring more breaking news we're hearing from

military officers was an afghan who drove police officers to the interior ministry and was considered an ally of the victims. u.s. officials say they are not ready to let advisers go back to work in the country's interior ministry. one of the two officers killed was a major with the national guard but before he served our nation we know him as the big man on campus. he taught gym and, man, did he make an impact. abc2's roosevelt leftwich has more. >> reporter: major robert marchanti was known as a man who loved children. he would donate his time to help kids in need. he taught at several schools including dundalk, marsen state and carney elementary. teachers say he was only here for five months before he got called up. he made a huge impact. he taught gym but would also go from classroom to classroom when he had downtime to help. >> you could give him the littlest one in the building or the oldest one. no matter who he had, he did homework with these kids. some kids he didn't goat the support they needed and never came in. he would do that. he helped out kindergarten all the way to fi

they were killed inside afghanistan's interior ministry.his comes after days of protest over qu'rans being burned. and corruption case against former prime minister berlusconi was dismissed. they ruled that the statue of limitation has run out. and republicans and president obama are at odds over what to do over rising gas prices. the president said there are no quick fixs and kay bailey hutchinson argued that the president is blocking new sources of oil. and most gop candidates are spending the day in michigan ahead of the tuesday primary. they are all holding eventt today. romney and santorum are in a dead heat in michigan. newt gingrich is in california. those are the top stories right now. back to you. >> thank you very much. as he just mentioned with days to go, it is not clear who the real leader is in michigan. the latest rasmussen poll shows that mitt romney is in the lead by six percent and inching out the margin of error. but the average shows a closer race with romney leading by less than two percent. can he win in his home state

from senior afghan counter terrorism official about this gun man, apparently an employee of the interior ministry. registered out a pistol, went to this secure area of the ministry called the command and control center, where he shot these two senior american military officers who were there in an advisory capacity, and then he left. he appears to have escaped and is still at large. that pretty much tallies with an explanation given by the taliban in an e-mail yesterday, both this counterterrorism official both saying the motivation he was furious over the american mistaken burning of a koran near ly a week ago. >> how did this killer get out? there must have been closed circuit televisions or something like that. >> reporter: that's a huge question. somebody mouft have heard the gunshots perhaps unless using a silencer or, all speculation. he had authority to be in that part of the ministry and clearly somehow walked calmly out of there as well. surely people must have heard something, perhaps they went into lockdown immediately. it's not entirely clear. there were not report ife repor lengthy s

the pentagon today identified one of the victims of yesterday's interior ministry shooting in afghanistan as 44-year-old lieutenant corner joll lottus of kentucky. meanwhile at a u.s. base today the fury over the accidental burnings of koran lead to another attack on american service members. mandy clark is in kabul. >> reporter: afghans took to the streets for a six day expressing their rage over the koran burning by u.s. soldiers at bagram air base last week. protestors in northern afghanistan threw a hand grenade into a u.s. base injuring seven american special forces on a training mission there. and a manhunt continues for the afghan policeman who shot and killed two american officers at the interior ministry where they worked as advisors. the alleged gunman is 25-year-old abdul saboor, police have detained his family members and now all foreign military and civilian advisors have been pulled back from their posts across afghanistan. the move puts american's mission into question. but u.s. ambar does ryan crocker is talking tough. >> this is not the time to desaid that we're done here

demonstrators confront the police outside of the interior ministry and now the wall that was separate in them has been partly dismantled. overnight, protesters went to work removing the heavy concrete blocks. they stayed on the streets after a day of clashes with the security forces. >> the military must step down. we have had enough people getting killed every day. >> i blame the police for what happened. usually, we get search for entering this -- before entering the stadium. nobody surged us. >> egypt saw angry clouds. here in the city of suez, at least people -- two people were shot and killed by police. this was the reason for the outrage, the worst football violence ever seen in the country took place in the northern city of port said on wednesday. local fans invaded the pitch after winning against the top virucide. meanwhile, police stood by. some accused them of deliberate negligence. some say that this is another bloody reminder of the lack of law and order. after a year in power, they hold the military responsible. the calls are for a faster transfer to a civilian government

what we do know is this man had access to heavily port fied interior ministry. he made their way inside the offices of this -- these two u.s. officers. he was able to shoot them and point blank range. they can't even say for sure if the main suspect at the moment was the killer because they don't have enough evidence but they are looking for him. he apparently slipped out of the ministry shortly after the shooting. he is the prime suspect at the moment. they brought his family members in for questioning but they still cannot locate him. again, we need to reiterate the point that the wags is so tense when it comes to westerners, military and civilian, we also got reports today there was a possible poisoning at a u.s. base in eastern afghanistan. the military says they are looking into the incident but there was food tampered but but no one was injured. >> the american government, including the president of the united states has bent over backwards to apologize for what he says was inadd verlt ent burning of the korans, do you sense that message is even getting to
