more political dialogue between those pro qaddafi loyalists in libya and a defuncted government in tripoli where the lane was headed and thankfully, resolved peacefully and doesn't seem to be anything ever intended to cause harm to the passengers and we saw this video of passengers getting off the plane and shaking the hands of the hijackers at no point, did they have their cell phones removed. thankfully, it was resolved peacefully and appears right now, everybody is headed for an army base in malta. >> tell he if i missed this. did they actually have hand grenades as it was reported? >> we don't know, we're waiting to hear from the maltesian foreign minister. there is no security situation. the idea that air travel is safe is frankly a joke. the mayor telling british broadcasters that the security situation is quite poor at the airport, that the terminal is some three miles from where the airfield is. so basically anybody can get on these planes so it's not like there's a tsa system in the united states and this is a very bad political situation in libya. a lot of fieghting on with al qa

that plane was headed for tripoli from the city of saba before being diverted to malta.ia reports say the men appeared to be followers of the late deposed leader moammar gadhafi. >> the suspect in the killing of a 3-year-old boy in arkansas during a road rage incident is now charged with murder. relatives turned in 33-year-old gary holmes late last night. he's charged with capital murder and two counts of a terrorist act. according to the arrest affidavit holmes' girlfriend said he fired into a car last saturday because holmes believed it was following him too closely a few moments earlier. 3-year-old acen king was buried this afternoon. >>> new names were added to join president-elect donald trump at the white house after mr. trump tweeted about expanding america's nuclear capabilities. >> reporter: could this single tweet mark a major break from u.s. policy for nearly 40 years, a tweet that read in part that the u.s. must greatly strengthen and expand its nuclear cape sglablt there were all kinds of warnings, especially from hillary clinton when she said if a guy that

thomas jefferson and the tripoli irony and wrapping up the conservative book club bestsellers is president-elect donald trumps the art of the deal, first published in 1987, plus a collection of the late william f buckley's essays by fox news chief washington correspondent james rosen. many of these authors have or will be appearing on book tv. watch them on our website, booktv.org. >> let's talk about news in the book. and it's not without controversy . there's probably controversy but it's fascinating. in the book we talk about various character officials, naming general flynn who concluded in 2012 that the obama administration was seeking to suppress intelligence on islamic extremist threats in order to justify walking away from iraq, syria, afghanistan and other countries that had fallen apart while he was president. >> that's one of the central point that i talk about earlier. there is this feeling amongst them and flynn was the chief intelligence officer for joint special operations command in iran and afghanistan so he was close to the fight. he was up for several jobs. >> he's donald trum

thomas jefferson the tripoli boy rats available in paperback. basically everybody has already bought it today the 75th anniversary of the surprise attack on pearl harbor in hawaii. then a territory, now a state. it killed northeasterly 2400 service members and propelled us into the second world war. one of the pivotal moments in american history and yet, it's being forgotten. brian kilmeade was recently at pearl harbor in hawaii and he brings back a report. is that true, brian? >> i think so, tucker. it's great to see you, as usual. i will tell you what, this is the year my family finally decided we are going to put up with the 12 hour ride. fly out directly to hawaii. 75 years since the attack. we're definitely going to pearl harbor and we went. we could not wait to go. being that you have this huge budget, you were able to pay the rights fees to see my family photos from pearl harbor. we had a chance to not only see veterans signing peculiars and big tribute. it's a thriving military port and base. it also is a tribune beauty to those who gave

this plane took out of in southern libya going to tripoli.was high jackethigh jacketed. 111 passengers were held hostage and eventually we saw some let go. first women and children. and then men, until it was just left with the hijackers and the crew of the plane. at one point, though, we did see one of the hijackers leave the plane and wave a green flag. now that is the flag of the former libyan leader moammar gadhafi, ousted in 2011. that might be a hint of maybe some of the motivation behind this hijacking, but right now we're waiting to hear from the maltese government about what drove these men to hijack that plane, john. >> of course, good news. everyone safe. in london, thanks so much. >>> reporting on the u.n. security council voting perhaps on a resolution today condemning israeli settlements. reporting that president-elect donald trump got himself involved in this in the last 24 hours, and this is counter to a tradition in american transitions where people say there's only one president at a time. let's talk about this now. joining

this was an internal libyan flight going from the south of the country to tripoli in the north when the hijackers took it. we're hearing from reuters that the pilots wanted to land the plane in libya. the hijackers refused and the plane was diverted to malta. an airbus a-320 right now on the tarmac. there are security forces there trying to determine the best way to move forward. obviously, we're hearing from politicians from malta saying they hope this ends peacefully. that is the main goal right now. they want to figure out what these hijackers want. i think it's important to point out that these are people who have demands who want to use them to get what they need. this is not what we've seen in the past where you have terrorist acts or people just trying to commit mass casualties. so, that is what these officials right now in malta are trying to determine what these people want so it can end peacefully. >> ian, thank you very much. stay on that situation and come when there are developments. we'll watch it throughout the morning. >>> big story back here at home. a video that has go

the flight was highjacked as it new to tripoli with more than 100 passengers and six crew members one says the pilot was told the highjackers were armed and demanding he planned rome the highjacking ended peacefully a few hours later when the highjackers surrendered. it's still not clear how the highjackers managed to get the weapons on board. however, investigators in maltese are saying the weapons were replicas. >>> investigators in australia say they foiled a series of attacks planned for the holidays. officials say the men were inspired by isis. according to police, they were targeting a train station, a church and other spaces in melbourne. that's australia's second largest city. authorities believe the group had been planning the attack for three weeks. australia's prime minister called one of the most substantial lots in several years. >> suspect in the berlin christmas market attack has come to an end but the investigation far from over. anis amri was shot and killed this morning in milan italy during a gun battle with police. amri encountered officers on routine patrol outsi

this is a plane that left from the libyan city headed for tripoli, obviously diverted to malta. what else do we know about the passengers on that plane, ian? >> well, there was 111 passengers on that plane and we're hearing from the prime minister's office that 109 passengers have been released. leaving two presumably those are both of the hijackers, we're hearing this from maltese foreign ministry saying that the two hijackers claim they have grenades. we do not know their demands yet. we're expecting to get that shortly. but they have been as we've been watching this over the course of the hours, they've been allowing people to leave. first they allowed the women and children to leave, and then the elderly, we're hearing from the prime minister's office that they're going to allow the crew to leave, too. but when you're looking at these pictures, the crew doesn't look like they've left the plane yet. >> ian, obviously we don't know motivation here. we don't know the identity of the hijackers. we do know the context and that is that libya has been in the midst of a very -- very
