Victims are women and children and the taliban says that the timing of the blast was no coincidence, it was meant to happen on Easter Sunday. Cnn International Producer sophia saifi is on the phone with us from islamabad. What more do you know about this Taliban Group and why they did this . Fredricka, what we do know is that this group is a faction of the pakistani taliban. They said that the reason behind their attack is to combat the pakistani state and show them they are still very much in power, they still have a lot of control and that they will continue this fight against the pakistani state. Theyve actually been responsible for the attack that happened just this month in the northwestern city. Like you said, most of the people who died in this attack, who have been killed in this attack, are women and children. The attack took place around 6 00 in the evening on Easter Sunday. It was very close to the Amusement Park section of the park, where they have rides and ferris wheels, and thats why a lot of the children are amongst the dead in this attack. A threeday period of mourning has been announced in the province of punjab and the death toll is expected to rise. Fredricka . Leading up to this, does this catch people flat footed, or have there been indications of potential turmoil or that the taliban related groups might be looking for an opportunity to strike . Well, fredricka, the city of lahore itself is very peaceful compared to other places where there is militants in pakistan, so along the border and in those cities you will see more concern, more fear, more attacks, but the city of lahore, where this attack took place, it has caught people by surprise. Its always been if there is a problem of militanmilitant, but the past six months or year in the city of lahore. There was fear there would be pushback against the militarys ongoing, you know, operation against these militants in northwestern pakistan, but it has still taken people by surprise. There are over 60 people dead, over 300 people injured. Its quite shocking and scary. Shocking and quite horrible. Thank you so much, sophia saifi, appreciate that. Also following breaking news in belgium. Police in brussels using Water Cannons to break up protests at the memorial site to last weeks terror attack victims. People who gathered at the site to honor victims were confronted by protesters raising their arms in nazi salutes and shouting antiimmigrant chants. Also this morning, police in belgium carried out 13 new raids in connection with tuesdays attacks, nine people were initially taken into custody and four are still being held. Lets bring in cnns christina and alexandra field in brussels, whos reporting on new information about some of the victims. Alex, you first, what can you tell us about the investigation there and the victims . Well, fredricka, we saw people who came out here in the square today to honor the victims, to honor the fallen. They had what was supposed to be a peaceful demonstration in support of those who died, those who suffered, this is a city thats been left reeling. They were met by people who wanted to express, frankly, fear and anger. We did see clashing between the demonstrators who were out here today, but so many people are trying to keep the focus on those who lost their lives this week. We know 31 people died during the double attacks, three suicide bombers, 28 victims, 14 in the metro station, 14 at the airport, and now the very painstaking work of identifying all those victims is still being done. We know that 11 of them have been identified as foreign nationals, 13 of them are belgium nationals, but there are seven people who are yet to be identified. We spoke to officials about why this is such a lengthy process and they tell us because of the extent of the injuries, they really need to do very elaborate work to properly identify people, not just dna testing, but also looking at dental records, also speaking to family members. And again, because of the proximity of some of the victims to the bombs themselves, the injuries were so extensive that this work really does take some time, were told, by the officials. That, of course, has been very difficult for the families who are waiting now for days for confirmation about what happened to their loved ones. Theres also the added complication of the fact that there was so Many International people in that airport, of course, so we spoke to the Foreign Ministry office here and saying they are working with more than 100 embassies trying to coordinate the giving of these details and information, so many different parties, so that these embassies can get in touch with the right families in each of these countries, fred. Alexandra, now can you speak to the concern that may be sweeping that country about the images that have now come out, the conflicting images of those who are there in peace paying homage to those who have been killed and injured, being met by folks who are chanting antiimmigrant slogans and even raising their arms like they were saluting hitler or something. What has been the expressed concern about these two very different images in brussels right now . Look, it speaks to the tension, speaks to the stress the people in the city are living under, not just this week, not just in the days since these bombings, but given the fact that people here have been living under this fear of another attack for some four months now, really since the paris attacks, since the man hunts for terrorists began in this city. So you saw that erupt in this square, where people wanted to come and focus on the victims. We heard from officials yesterday, they had asked people to call off a peace march planned for today, people wanted to come to honor the fallen in those attacks, but officials said dont do it today, theyve got too much police work to do, too much investigation to do, they didnt want to devote Police Resources to the square to watching this march, so what was meant to be called off, you did have people who wanted to come out and honor the victims and they were met by some of those angry demonstrators and protesters, some of them setting off fire crackers, it all came to an end within about the space of an hour when police in riot gear came into the square, they were able to push those demonstrators back. They had crowd control vehicles that were equipped with Water Cannons, at one point they had to let some of the water out as the demonstrators dispersed. What were seeing right now, candles lit in the square, people here to remember those killed in the attacks this week. Thank you so much in brussels there. So, again, about seven people who have yet to be identified, but we are still learning more about some of the other victims who had been identified in tuesdays terror attacks in brussels at the airport there and train station. Lets check in with christina with more on the information gathered about them. Christin christina . So on friday we heard that there were two americans that died in the attack. Today we know who they are. Justin and stephanie schultz, they were working in brussels. In fact, they had plans to return to the u. S. Just next year. Justin and stephanie schultzs families are reeling from the shock learning that they were the two americans killed in the brussels terror attack. The two werent even traveling, they were at the airport dropping off stephanies mother for a flight to the u. S. Moore, who was injured in the blast, confirmed her daughters death to cnn, saying, they are in heaven. The schultz are among a handful of victims with known ties to the u. S. Today has been the worst day of my life. Emilys boyfriend and belgium native was on the way to georgia to visit her. The former ambassador to the u. S. , andre adam, was also at the airport. He died in the blast, according to a belgian official. The family also got the horrific news last week, dutch siblings alexander and sasha were checking into their flight on their way to new york, where they lived. In a statement, the family said, were grateful to have closure on this tragic situation and are thankful for the thoughts and prayers from all. In total, the terrorist attacks in brussels killed 28 people and wounded 300. And now, christina, we also understand, beautiful profile of the people we know about, the americans killed, and now we know the president has issued a phone call to the family members of at least two of the victims. What more do we know about that . We know that the president has reassured the family that these two individuals, stephanie and justin, were outstanding americans and hes probably going to be making phone calls to some of the other victims that have ties to america, but also keep in mind its not just the two who died, president obama said yesterday that of the 300 wounded, 14 wounded are americans. So theres probably some work to be done there in terms of the president reaching out to those families. And this is truly a horrific event for a lot of countries around the world. The victims represent about 40 different nationalities, fred. All right, christina, thank you so much. Remember to join Cnns Chris Cuomo as he returns to paris to investigate the terror that struck there. Thats cnn special report airs wednesday night at 9 00 p. M. Eastern time.

President obama has called the parents of those killed in the belgium attack and while authorities are continuing the complex man hunt for the terrorists involved, one thing is certain, these men did not act alone. Authorities are unraveling the complex relationship between these bombers and the assailants in the attacks in paris last november. And furthermore, if or how these individuals communicated with the caliphate in syria or elsewhere. Joining me right now, cnn military analyst Lieutenant Colonel rick francona. Colonel, welcome back. We know at least one of the brussels bombers and several of the paris attackers attempted to travel to syria. The e. U. Has been so focused on migrants coming in from turkey and syria, but is it doing enough to tackle current residents leaving and then returning to potentially carry out attacks like we have just seen . Well, this is a big problem, especially for a country like belgium, which has limited resources, yet they have one of the biggest problems because as weve discussed, belgium is one of the primary recruiting grounds for isis. Many, many citizens of belgium, mostly moroccan descent, have gone to syria to fight and are returning. The belgians cannot take track of them. The amount of people required to do surveillance on the ones they are worried about is too great. They pick out the ones they can and dont always select right. We see a lot of planning going on in belgium for other countries. We saw what happened in paris. Most of that planning and Logistic Support was from belgium because they can operate in belgium. France, different problem for them, because france has capable intelligence and security services. In large part is the fact that these borders are so porous and that there is, you know, frequent and easy travel in between certain european nations and if youre already a resident of, say, france or even belgium, perhaps its more difficult to track where you may have been prior to some of the friendlier nations . Exactly. You know, the agreement which governs the passage of people throughout europe, and my recent travels there, i virtually traveled the entire continent without ever stopping in the border, without anybody asking me to show who i was, show my passport, and this plays right into the hands of anybody planning these kinds of terrorist operations. If you can enter in greece, make your way all the way to france, almost undetected. And we heard now from the Splinter Group of the taliban claiming responsibility for the suicide bombing in lahore, pakistan, saying it was no coincidence, they were targeting specifically people on this easter, but at the same time do you look at any real correlation between the kind of attack that was carried out by way of the suicide bombing in a park, with lots of families on easter there in lahore, and what took place just days ago in rather soft target locations where many gather, you know, at the airport or at the metro station in belgium . Sure, sure. No correlation between the groups, but certainly using the same tactics, the same tried and true tactic, use a suicide bomber, put him into a soft target rather than going after a church on easter in lahore. They would go after a group of people, because the churches would have some sort of protection. And this is the fear that all Law Enforcement and security people have, is these targets are unprotected. Malls in the United States are a perfect example, how do you secure them . You cant, that would be the perfect target. What we saw is a group of children playing in a park, easy target, causes great damage and great psychological impact. The tactics, when you also look at the paris attacks four months ago, the paris attacker, who was in belgian custody, abdesl abdeslam, do you see a correlation between him being in custody, answering questions, at least to a certain extent, no longer fighting extradition, and then this attack happens in brussels. There have been lots of theories whether theres a real correlation or not. What elements do you need to know definitively there is a relationship between the fact that it happened in brussels, when it happened, shortly after abdeslam said hes not fighting extradition . Well, when they get more interrogations, theyll be able to piece this together, but i think many of us were surprised there was an attack so soon after abdeslams arrest. Normally when you have an arrest of one of the operatives, all plans are aborted and they develop new plans because they have to assume that anything abdeslam knew, is now known to the security services. So we were surprised to see that. Lieutenant colonel rick francona, thanks so much for your time. Appreciate it.

In both North Carolina and georgia, protests are growing through the weekend after critics say state legislatures passed similar bills that weaken antidiscrimination laws. Heres cnns nick valencia with a look at what the law changes and the overwhelming reaction from both citizens and corporations. This is not all right all these people are upset. They are angry. They have been left out of the democratic process. This week outside of the Governors Mansion in North Carolina, protests and arrests. The demonstrators are opponents to a newly passed state law that they say is devastating to the Civil Liberties of transgender people. The law strikes down a recently passed ordinance in charlotte. It would have prektded trans people and allowed them to select the restroom of their choice based on how they identify. The adoption of the ordinance was just crazy. Reporter republican lawmakers were furious at the legislation. Allows grown men to share bathrooms and locker facilities with girls and women. In a special session, solely to consider the bill, republican lawmakers passed the public facilities privacy and securities act. It means transgender people in the state of North Carolina must use the restroom related to the gender on their birth certificate. North carolinas bill signed into law wednesday is the latest in a string of states attempting to pass similar antilgbt legislation. In the courtrooms youre seeing folks get their religious beliefs persecuted against. In georgia, the controversial bill passed by the state house and senate is called the free exercise protection act, one of the several religious liberty bills that have surfaced across the country. Mike crane is one of the bills most adamant supporters. Is this legislation a direct result of what the Supreme Court did last year at legalizing samesex marriage . I think its a result of many things, but that was just another catalyst, i believe. But many blue chip businesses around the nation say there will be major financial consequences to republican efforts in georgia and North Carolina. Disney and Marvel Studios have threatened to abandon production in georgia if the governor signs the bill into law. The nfl says it could have an impact whether atlanta is selected as host of the 2019 super bowl. And in North Carolina, the nba says because of the new law, it may pull the allstar game from charlotte next year. Nick valencia with us now with more on this. Its not going away any time soon. The clock is ticking, and, i mean, there are big messages of how corporations are responding to this, you know, as well as how state lawmakers are responding. North carolina, something not being talked about, we should really emphasize, its not just going to impact the lgbt community. Virtually guts Workplace Discrimination laws for everyone, eliminates a state statute implemented in 1977 that made it easy for employers to File Lawsuits against their state employer. Now that statute is eliminated, they have to go to a federal level, which the statute of limitations is shorter and higher bar to reach. Isnt just lgbt people impacted by this new North Carolina law. Its everyone who feels that they were discriminated against for any reason. All right, keep us posted on this. Thank you so much. Appreciate it, nick valencia. They witnessed the attack at the airport in brussels and now are returning to the scene to recover their belongings. Coming up, the difficult journey for victims as they return to the site of the bombings. Saw the whole facade, this from the bus we could see the roof that was completely shattered, the glass roof, then when we get out of the bus, we could see the whole front area basically with all the glass shattered.

Most of the victims are women and children, reports say the bomb detonated in a childrens play area. The Prime Minister of pakistan, quote, wont be able to stop us, end quote. And they say their suicide bombers will continue these kinds of attacks. Well have more on this at the top of the hour. All right, victims of tuesdays attacks in brussels are faced with the task of having to return to the scene of the bombing and collect their suitcases and personal belongings they were forced to leave behind as they ran for their lives. Reliving those terrifying moments is not easy. Heres cnns alexandra field. It was a matter of time. So you live with that. Every minute mattered, but only some people get time to think about that. They are here waiting to go back. Minutes before that you had been in the same spot where the bombs went off. Yes, yes. I was lucky, i did online checkin. Came in, immediately went to the gate. He narrowly missed the blast. At the beginning, nobody could reach me, ten, 15 minutes, i could call my wife. She was very in panic, she was panicked, she couldnt reach me. Another woman tells us she touched down right in the aftermath. We saw the whole facade, from the bus we could see the roof that was completely shattered, the glass roof, then when we got out of the bus, we could see the whole front area basically with all the glass shattered. People were just still walking down from there, and ambulances driving up. When you realize you could have been in that airport at the time this happened few minutes, yeah. Its a real shock. It was a really bad day in the days after, starting to get better now. Really tough. The airport is still a crime scene, its being guarded 24 hours a day by both police and members of the military. The only people who have gotten through the barricade are the ones part of the investigation until now. Some of the first people getting back in here are some of the last people who got out. Its time, they are picking up many of the 6,000 cars left behind, but no one will be allowed into the terminal. Crime scene investigation is still ongoing. There is still, of course, a lot of luggage, hand luggage, and personal belongings that are in the buildings. These buildings are not accessible to us yet. Engineers are still assessing the damage, theres no word on whether the building where two bombs exploded will be back open. Another matter of time. Alex field joining me now from brussels. The chaos that followed the blast, are you hearing anything about if initials are trying to retrieve victims belongings for them . Because its so difficult for some to return to those areas . Yeah, this is kind of a piecemeal process, the first thing they wanted to do was get people to be able to access their cars, that was also the simplist of tasks. People were brought in to get cars, then told they were offloading some of the cargo already loaded on to planes, so people in the airport at that time were able to pick up those things in a separate building, but as far as the things in the terminal itself at the time of the explosion, thats all been locked in the building as investigators did their work. With investigators clearing that scene, the job will have to start with sorting through the personal items and getting them back to the survivors and perhaps also to the families of the victims. And when will the airport be reopened . Not yet clear, fredricka. We are being told that engineers have gone in for an initial survey at this point, theyve been taking a look at the terminal where the bombs went off. Theyve determined there arent major structural issues, so the airports going to start to look at solutions for how to get itself open as quickly as possible, meaning they could set up temporary checkin desks while the rest of the repair work gets under way, but no timeline at this point, fredricka. All right, thank you so much. All right, still to come, the world according to donald trump. America comes first and everybody else pays . Well talk about that. Plus, Bernie Sanders says the u. S.

All right, on the road to the white house, Bernie Sanders is savoring a clean sweep in washington, hawaii, alaska, all going to the vermont senator yesterday. Sanders is now looking to run forward on this momentum straight into Hillary Clinton s territory, including her adoptive home state of new york. He touted his three wins when he spoke with our jake tapper on state of the union this morning. I think every vote is pivotal. We are now winning in state after state, the latino vote, were doing better now that were out of the south with the africanamerican vote. Were doing extraordinarily well with young people, and we are we think we do have a path toward victory. All right, joining me right now, a democratic strategist and the coauthor of the partys over and brian morgan stern, republican strategist. Welcome to both of you. How do you assess this . Bernie sanders did say out west they are a lot more progressive so this is whats supposed to be happening for him. How does he maintain this kind of momentum . Youre right, undeniably Super Saturday for bernie. He might even get some super delegates, remember those . Listen, hes doing well, hes got momentum, clearly, the bucks are rolling in and the passion is still there, but youve got to say hes still got this problem of running out of runway between now and the convention. The states hes done well in are the ones washington, liberal thoughts, i dont know about new york. Its going to be a lot tougher there. Really, running out of runway . Weve got until june to continue to collect if it turns out, you know, the proportional votes continue to go Bernie Sanders way. So, brian, is he on to something . I mean, he says hes got the momentum and look how much ground hes gained in just a week or so. And he needs a little over 1,300. Got to get 37 of the rest of the delegate count and maybe thats tough, but he is giving Hillary Clinton a run for her money. And hes creating additional runway is what hes going, because hes now making the argument to many of these party leaders, these super delegates, elected officials, hes saying you are going to have a choice to make. When you look at all these states i have won, are you going to vote for me, the person your constituents voted for by 40 or 50 in some of these states, or are you going to stick with secretary clinton and say look at this establishment trying to steal the election from the people . Either outcome is not so good for the clinton camp. Sanders, with these wins, is creating, like i said, more runway to try to steal some of the leaders who have already pledged and try to get them to go back on that. And i wonder if this is a little psychological warfare, looking at new york, Hillary Clintons adoptive home state and saying im going to spend a little more time in new york and really kind of threaten you there. Its smart. I mean, new york youre right, is one of hillarys three arguable home states. Heres the real dance thats going on behind it, though, is bernie the hillary folks cant try and bum rush bernie out of the race. Hes doing decently well, hes a perfectly good opponent, but theyve got to get to victory in a way that doesnt alienate the sanders people. How do you do that . One thing you discuss him respectfully, keep talking about how great it is hes got passion and money, and you certainly dont say hes got to quit. Its a manners game, really. Interesting. But at some point hes got to start stealing voters, or rather she is going to have to start stealing more voters, because the numbers of people, you know, she was saying over the weekend, you know, i have 2 million more voters than bernie had. Hes got a lot more donors, people with skin in the game passionate about it and at some point hes closing the gap, hes taking away that argument, and so she may have to take the kid gloves off for a little while, but thats, as said, theres a risk to that. Then when you talk about demographics and, you know, the candidates cant help but do that to see where they are more advantageous and wisconsin is voting in the primary in just about a week and a half from now, milwaukee has a large africanamerican voter base, and Hillary Clinton has traditionally done well, particularly when it was in the south. And even sanders acknowledged that, you know, hes doing better in the west. Didnt do so great in the south, but, you know, when it comes to wisconsin and the africanamerican vote, is it a geograph geographical issue, a demographic one, how does this potentially serve either candidate . Listen, bernie is doing a little better. You cant deny that, but this is all about being gracious, you know, hillary is quite confident the numbers are on her side, so the strategy is just flatter the guy, you know, say how much you appreciate him and how much you love his supporters. Thats really what its about. I think more than a mathematical equation, which is still really, really tough for bernie. Remember in wisconsin, labor is a huge issue, Governor Walker with collective bargaining, i think it will be a competition between these two candidates to see who can really galvanize the working class voters who are united. They are able to get a recall collection during the sitting government. It wasnt successful, but that speaks to their ability to organize. I think these two candidates will have to be addressing those issues and trying to outleftist each other when it comes to being pro union. May see some of that. All right, so far thats the dems. Well have you back in a moment to talk about the republicans. Crazy stuff. Yeah. It is getting a little crazy. I guess its been crazy. A little . And were also going to talk about last weeks attacks in brussels and how the candidates are weighing in on their Foreign Policy as it relates to that. All that straight ahead. baseball on tv in background with Heart Failure, danger is always on the rise.

Is happening now get a 1,250 volkswagen reward card and 0 apr on new 2016 passat models. All right, lets bring back our panel. Lets talk a little bit more about Foreign Policy, particularly as it pertains to donald trump since he hit the air waves today and had a lot to say about it and what hes calling, quote, an americafirst approach. And in a lengthy interview with the New York Times, trump actually gave his reasoning for this kind of branding saying, we have been disrespected, mock, and ripped off for many, many years by people who are smarter, shrewder, tougher. We were the big bully, but we were not smartly led. Brian, you first, lets talk about trump and his views and whether it will resinate with american voters. Do most people understand where hes coming from . Some do, you know, hes proven that at the polls, but his, you know, we need more good deals and fewer bad deals is, obviously, a little simplistic in trying to make too many other countries pay, i dont know, pay us rent or something. Pay us security payments like the mafia. I mean, what hes ignoring is how this world order came to be, which was a world war and a cold war and america sort of assuming the leadership mantle and other countries backing away from the defense industry, most notably because he mentions them. Japan. Well, we basically took over the defense of japan because in the world war they attacked us, they were an aggressor. Im not suggesting his plan will lead to a world war or anything like that, but his facade of toughness really is an effort to try to make other countries get more aggressive in the defense game, which so it would have th opposite affect of what i think the voters would be voting for. Yeah. And particularly, he was talking about allowing japan and south korea to build their own Nuclear Arsenals rather than having to depend on the American Nuclear umbrella for their protection against north korea. Here, the u. S. Worked so hard, to make sure Something Like that didnt happen. And to continue to be the peace maker between, you know, korea and japan. So ellis, is this the issue of this is the world of donald trump, this is how he sees it or does it instead highlight that perhaps he is out of touch with the way history has unfolded. Or perhaps he is not consulting with anyone. s just kind of brain storming . Well, whats the matter . My friend brian doesnt want america to be a winner, is that the problem here . He doesnt know, right . Two or three slogans worked wonderfulfully for him. One is make other people pay for it and other is keep foreign people away from us. There is an audience for that. As long as you dont scratch too deeply, a significant number of americans are going to nod along. Than you ask for the particulars. Okay, you hate nato. What do we do, abandon nato . Walk away from it . What about the issues of terror. Once it gets complicated as it did in that New York Times conversation, he doesnt know. But we havent heard a whole lot of specifics on so many things. Here we are, you know, almost at the Half Way Point of the primary season and he still is out front. So i mean, i guess no one can explain it because a lot of people have tried, you know, but brian, as what point, you know, do american voters, you know, demand to hear more . Not just from donald trump but perhaps from john kasich as well as ted cruz as they want more specificity on the issues particularly as it pertains to nato or americas fight against isis, et cetera. You would think, as in past elections, it comes to that. However, trump, and ill give him credit where its due, turned his lack of specificity somehow into a strength by saying no we need to be less predictable. Im not going to tell you what to do. It is the First Campaign where we have seen an actual arguing point in his favor is im not going to tell you what the heck im going to do. That is how he turned it on its head and his supporters love it. And they think, great, our adversaries abroad shouldnt know what were going to do. They should be on the edge of their seats and you know, sort of at our beckon call because theyre, i guess, afraid of us or whatever the sensation is supposed to be. But thats how hes approached it and so far its working. I want more specifics. You want more specifics. But it seems like the candidates are incentivized against giving them at this point in time. This is what he said this morning on this week as it pertains it nato. If we adjust nato, and it will have to be to readjust it to take care of terrorism or set up a new coalition, a new group of countries to handle terrorism. So ellis, what was your interpretation of that . A perfect example of either we got to totally redo it or make somebody else pay for it. Maybe we will scratch it or come up with a new group. There are reasonable arguments one can make about trying to drag nato into the modern terror age. Sophisticated people are wrestling about that. But do you really think donald trump will get us there . Nothing he said yet makes us feel like he understands those nuances. Then he discussed on how he would take on isis and this is in a New York Times interview. Saying this quote ive been saying take the oil. Ive been saying it for years. Take the oil. They still havent taken the oil. They still havent taken it. But we are reminded by Lieutenant Colonel and part of the paychecks for fighters has been reduced because isis has been hit hard where it is getting most of its money. So brian, i guess in generalities, when donald trump is able to continue, you know, talking about this way, does it help cement his point . Meaning he is very repetition. And that makes it much more believable . Well, his style has won broad appeal. There have been countless articles about how he is speaking at like a third of fourth grade reading level. In other words, his language is accessible. It is not just what he says, but how he says it. The other candidates will hammer him on the substance of it. But until they can actually break through and get the reaction that he does, you know, he will continue to lead. All right, brian morgenstern, ellis, thank you.
