coming in from baghdad, it's being hosted by colonel steve warren. according to him, there was a drone strike carried out yesterday, a very routine drone strike according to colonel warren using hell fire missiles. according to him, the people that they expected to be present when the drone carried out the attack were carried but what they can't say for certain at the moment is whether anybody killed in that group was jihadi john who has been seen talking in the most egregious fashion and beheading a lot of american citizens including james foley foley and steven sot lo. isil, according to him, he's an isil celebrity. and probably the damage to isil is probably a lot greater than it is to their reputation than to the tactical situation because he is a celebrity and not a tactical figure. he called himself a human animal. now it's going to take a while to find out whether he's dead or not. there are no u.s. special operations forces on the ground and no troops in this part of the caliphate. they will eventually know. but it will take some days. >> the

military spokesman steve warren says they know they hit their targeted car, and those who were inside are dead. now they just have to confirm the man known as jihadi john was one of the two in the car. secretary of state john kerry's reaction to the attack on isis, also known as daesh, did not mince words. sec. john kerry: but the terrorists associated with daesh need to know this -- you're days ur days are numbered, and you will be defeated. diane: meanwhile, british prime minister david cameron praised the joint u.s./british action, but is not certain the kuwaiti-born british citizen is dead. middle east terrorism expert jonathan schanzer says, on one hand, the attack seems like a psychological victory. jonathan: on the other hand, i would say it is a hollow victory. that we have killed one man, but that the organization remains strong. diane: schanzer says this is just one step in a much larger battle. while prime minister cameron said targeting emwazi was a strike at the heart of isis. families of those beheaded say jihadi john's apparent death is of little solace, because it does

according to colonel steve warren, the process now begins to try to work out whether they really did get jihadi john. it's going to take' couple of days. colonel warren says it's not an exact science. >> the intelligence indicators that we had gave us great confidence that this was jihadi john and an opportunity presented itself with minimum civilian casualties and we took the shot >> a couple of things worth noting, colonel warren says he was an isis celebrity and not strategically significant. he also pointed out that they have been killing mid-to upper level leader leaders at one a day now since may. >> there is also news of new tactics regarding isil oil fields correct? >> kind of new on one hand but not on the other. according to colonel warren, they've instigated a new operation called tidal wave two. tidal wave one is something that stems from the second world war when the allies went after nazi oil installations and these pictures show the coalition going after isil oil installations, refineries, separation units, dumps, pumping station. that sort of thing. now the idea and t

colonel steve warren spoke about that this morning. i want to play that. let's listen. >> jihadi john was somewhat of an isil celebrity, if you will. kind of the face of the organization in many senses. so there is certainly i think a significant blow to their prestige of isil, but jihadi john wasn't a major tactical figure. >> interesting when you hear about that, knowing that his role wasn't necessarily contributing to the strategy or the operations of isis, more as a celebrity, as a figure knowing social media is so important and how his influence was carried through that. talk a little bit about that and how that can even put a dent into the efforts of isis. >> yeah. i think there's a very large recruiting proseletyzing component here because of his stature, which your commentators have correctly outlined, taking out somebody like jihadi john sends a very negative message down the pipe of what can happen at the far end. now, the counterveiling is a sense of martyrdom, of dying in a greater cause but on the recruiting side, this will be helpful to slow
