What i would say to the israeli people is, however, that there is no formula there is no option to prevent iran from getting a Nuclear Weapon that will be more effective than the Diplomatic Initiative and framework we put edward and that is demonstrable. Congress in town next week and ready to challenge president obama on the details of this deal. President obama indicated some openness to be able to have congress register their feelings about this deal. But without making it a binding agreement, many in congress believe that my not be good enough. Sunlen, thank you all of that backed. Lets break down the real stakes are here. Richard was a Senior Adviser to president bill clinton and kevin madden is a republican political strategist. What is the sell from the president coming to congress . What is his best bet . I think the best bet this is a historic opportunity to change the way we do business with this country and we have to keep our eye on the big prize that if the framework results in a binding agreement, which we hope it will that iran will agree not to obtain Nuclear Weapons for a good amount of time and that is you know, a gamechanger in terms of the security of the whole world. Kevin, you heard richards point. He is not alone. We have heard two completely different views of this deal. The critics say Like Netanyahu its a bad deal and the others say this is history making and it could reorder the entire relationship even in the middle east. Some of our pundits likened it to nixon going to china. How do you see it . I think the big problem is there a trust deficit up on capitol hill between the white house and members of congress. The president has to go and really sell this and the merits of the deal. I think many up there worry this is essentially enshrined irans right to enrich and some of the facilities that were built illegally still remain in place. The president , i think one of the big risks the president took when he announced the deal was that he seemed to throw down the gauntlet saying if Congress Gets involved it will scuttle any chance to get this deal. I think that is a mistake because this congress has shown every time that the president wants to throw down a gauntlet they have picked it right up. He has signaled as sunlen mentioned in her package, he has signaled a bit more of a cooperative approach and interesting to see starting this week when Congress Comes back it continues with that approach and sell this to a lot of skeptics up on capitol hill. The skeptics is not partisan skepticism. Nine democrats up there cosponsors of bob corkers bill to make sure Congress Reviews this. You know what the problem with corkers bill its only about sanctions. My pushback to you im hearing a lot of the emotion and politics of it how he did it. Is that the right basis to evaluate this deal on how nice he was to you in the process or is it about having a better plan . No. It is about the substance. Look. That is one of the delicate balances here chris. The congress recognizes the president should be the sole voice of Foreign Policy around the globe but, at the same time, they do have the believe there is a congressional role when can comes to having these sanctions. Enforcing and ensuring that the Peoples National security is protected and a good deal is gotten instead of any deal. Richard, about senator corkers bill the legislation he is trying to pass do you think congress is meddling or a right to weigh in on the final product here . Congress has a role to play in Foreign Policy but we dont want to get into the situation the president makes a deal. Right now only a framework but working towards a deal. We dont want the president to make a deal and congress nitpick it. That wont work and has never worked in the context of diplomacy. Kevin is articulating they want to have it both ways right . This is only a framework. Its not a final deal. I would say to congress and to define kevin and others criticizing this deal lets wait and see and what is the final deal is and not squander the opportunity to make progress and make the world the entire globe a safer place. A little bit of is you reap what you sow. Now you need them right . They do have sanction power and you dont have a great relationship. It is a balance as kevin was saying. Lets listen to what the president has to say because he is now articulating what his sell is for congress. Take a listen. What ive said to them is we will not only go through all of the details of what the current framework is and provide them updates in terms of how the negotiations go going forward, but we are committed to finding a mechanism for appropriate congressional involvement and oversight. Kevin, will that assuage congresss fears . He said we will find a mechanism and include them. It will. I think rumors earlier on capitol hill the president would take the bill to the u. N. Before he would take it to congress. I think that was a different tone he took when he originally announced the framework and interesting to see if they continue with that. It is going to be a very tough job selling this up on capitol hill and its not just republicans. He is going to have to find ways to peel off democrats up on the corker bill. If he doesnt, you know, there could very well be a vetoproof majority up there if they dont work to make sure that democrats come to their side. My wife always says tone matters. Tone matters. The question for you, the easier question for kevin, but for you how big is this for the president . If this does not go his wane has to go to the p5 f1 what does that say . Not the question how big it is for the president but how big it is for all of civilization and all of humanity. The struggle to end nuclear proliferation, the struggle to keep other powers especially draining places like iran from getting Nuclear Weapons is, you know one of the most important issues of our time. So if we cant succeed diplomatically here what are the alternatives . Are we going to war with iran to try to prevent this . Everybody is against this or say they are against it they have no alternatives. No one has put forth anything. Im hopeful because i think you heard in kevins last answer a little bit of an opening. I think the president is doing the job he needs to do. I think the talk over the weekend was important. I think he and congress will come together. Kevin, richard, thanks so much. Good to see you guys. Great to be with you. Michaela . The manhunt intensifying this morning for the mastermind of that horrific massacre that claimed 147 lives on the University Campus in kenya. Authorities are revealing that one of the four gunmen was the son of a kenyan government official. This amid reports that kenya is going after al shabab. Cnns Christian Purefoy joins us with the very latest. Christian . Reporter michaela we are now getting reports that kenya are bombing at least two al shabab camps that is a fourhour drive from what im understanding in garissa. An official said this is the Ongoing Operations against al sha hob bob but it has to be said the timing is very convenient, if you like. The attack happened here and now they are bombing the camps. This is what we know so far, michaela. This morning, kenya on heightened alert. Even easter prayers shaken. Security checks outside churches. Kenyan forces on guard after the terrorist Group Al Shabab threatened quote, another bloodbath over the weekend. Relatives grieving in complete anklewish as kenyans remain on the look outfor the militant behind the garissa attack that killed nearly 150 people. The government says Muhammad Mahmoud wanted for a bounty is the mastermind and known by other aliases the former religious teacher is in somalia. According to a minute i have document given to cnn, the Al Qaedalinked militant is in charge of sternal operations against kenya. It sits on one of the fault lines in the world and largely christian atmosphere in the south and mostly Muslim Population to the north. Our forefathers bled and died for this nation and we will do everything to defend our way of life. Reporter meanwhile, Kenyas Interior Ministry identifying another attacker. An apparent homegrown terrorist aldulayi and son of a government chief somalian descent. He says his son has been missing since 2013 and saying he disappeared to somalia last year. Now one thing to bear in mind here. We used these phrases like mastermind but we have to remember that these people are using the most basic means to murder as is many people as possible. Absolutely. That cannot be lost. This is just a massacre. Nothing sfistedophisticated about it. Hillary clinton is about to announce her second bid for the white house. Cnn first reported on friday that clintons team signed a lease for a Campaign Office in brooklyn. When will her team take the field and what will it look like . Cnns senior washington correspondent jeff zellin joins us from washington with more. What do we know jeff . Reporter chris, we know the announcement is days away. Some people in her orbit think it could come next week and we are really getting more of a sense of what this campaign is going to look like. We have talked to a lot of operatives in her world and they say one thing is clear. She is going to make this campaign less about her and less about her own ambitions. Of course, remember when she got in eight years ago, she said im in and im in to win. A lot of of the use of the word i. That is not going to be the same this time around. Its a lot about voters concerns. We are told she is going to have fewer big rally and fewer large speeches and try to make her campaign a smaller campaign trying to take her message individually to voters oneonone and trying to reintroduce herself as a candidate. Of course, its an open question how someone this famous and this wellknown and edge polarizing can actually introduce herself. She doesnt necessarily have one big democratic opponent a couple of but a a lot of republican rivals trying to distinguish themselves by sort of attacking her, so she has a big re introduction phase here to work on but a couple of other things we are finding out. She is going to also not use her husband as much in early rallies. We are told he is not going to appear with her at the beginning of her gain at all. Its going to be some weeks or months away before he takes an active role in this campaign so she is really trying to send the signal that she is not inevitable that she is not looking for a coronation here and she is trying to win every vote and she is going to campaign a lot in iowa we are told a lot in New Hampshire. We are told a couple of her top or tiches operatives were visiting state last week. A lot saying she is coming out and campaigning hard for this. This is almost on the verge of an announcement. It could be this week or next week we are told at the latest. Very interest jeff. Always interesting to see how famous people can reinvent themselves. We will see had fit works. Thanks jeff. A bombshell surrounding Rolling Stone magazine. Slamming the magazine for failing to engage in quote, basic, even routine journalistic practice. Rolling stone issuing a retraction about a female student who claimed she was gang raped at the university of virginia. Rolling stone decided not to fire anyone and saying elbow the mistakes issue not intentional. Closing arguments set to begin in the Boston Marathon trial. The jury could get the case sometime today. The defense economists Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was a bomber during those attacks but claims he was acting under his brothers influence. Three people were killed and hundreds more injured and m. I. T. Police officer was killed in a subsequent shooting. If convicted, jurors will have to decide whether tsarnaev will be put to death. Comedian john oliver a funny guy but nsa leaker wasnt joking. About owning the dangerous nature of what he released seeing how some didnt redact them as careful as they should have. Take a listen. In journalism we have to accept some mistakes will be made. This is a fundamental concept of liberty. Right. But you have to own that thing. Youre giving documents with information you know could be harmful which could get out there. Yes. John oliver . He had him thinking there for a second. He also had humor, john oliver, how little Americans Care about surveillance and how they know snowden. Snowden says nobody seems to know who you are and care about this so maybe you can come back home. But he came out of it. Its interesting. Its an advantage, though. He is allowed to judge the answer as it comes across. Snowden says its going to happen. No, its not good enough. I dont like that answer. Gives him a little bit of a freedom. I was surprised by it.

This morning we are learning more about the alleged man behind the massacre in north kenya and north american in general that seems to have slipped right past us. Lets bring in philip mudd author of the new book the head game. And ross mr. Guard steen, ross i would like to start with this book gentleman, one it was full of pictures some of the actual writing in here deals with somalia, mr. Mu dd it said on page 36 we didnt realize until the al shabab extremist infection in American Cities spread well beyond fundraising. In 2008 they drove an explosives packed vehicle into a building in somalia. I think the book is starting with the data and data overload its starting with the question t. Data we had then had to do with fund raising for the somali terrorists a group we call al shabab. If we see this extent of fundraising, what is the likelihood there is recruiting in American Cities. I fault myself for this we missed a separate stream of recruiters. They were separate from the fund raisers. All of a sudden parents started coming in many city particularly minneapolis, saying wheres my kid . That kid went over to fight with al shabab. Minneapolis because there is a somali population there. People are unaware, but there is. Do you accept mr. Mudds defense . Was that not an obvious link with the link between fundraising and terrorism . How do you many is that . Thats an excellent question. I think times when a question is missed its absolutely defencible. There are so many questions asked by the Intelligence Committee you cant get everything right the flipside is do you think we should look at things like politicization. Thats a little beyond the scope of what phil is talking about, though. Let me ask you something. The reason i skipped over who is the guy behind the attack it seems like the people at the head of the snake, it isnt a snake, its a worm. You cut off the head that thing starts moving in another direction, regrowth. How important is he . Of course, you want to find him because of the hor rehe just did. Leadership how important is it . When you evaluate the terrorist groups the guys on the line are storming universitys in somalia and kenya and killing people. Then there is the leadership. When you think of threats on the United States i focus on leadership these are the people that tell someone down the line a 19yearold terrorist, your target isnt new york city. Its difficult to grow people with that vision over that time. When we were focusing intelligence effort the guys on the field can be taken care of. Its the leadership we the cia and fbi have to go over and those are the people that are targets for things like drone strikes, eliminating the head of the snake. Eliminating the head of the snake, where is this guy . How hard is he to find . And what do you do with him when you get him . I think history shows he will probably be fairly difficult. Too imse the u. S. Or one of its allies will get a good line in on intelligence and carry out a targeted strike. In fact the u. S. Had a good success in carried out targeted striets i strikes in somalia. In general, its hard to find one individual the manhunt for bin ladin took a decade t. Hunt for zawahiri afterwards demonstrates how difficult it can be for that one guy especially when he is practicing Strong Operational security. Mohammed mahmoud has responsibility he has responsibility for kenya and a reasonable complex. He definitely has a hand into kenyan society. One final thing id say, its worth understanding that sha bob is al shabab you have somali sha bob and kenya sha bob. In kenya, there is in question they are becoming stronger. You have a book out. You answer this question anyway you like. You think its right you do nothing but a tell all for your own gain . I think it was a brilliant move. I think it will sell. Next question. High Decision Making and art of solving complex problems quickly. How in this book to you apply the reasoning to other endeavors for people . It took me a while to realize, when i was looking at a ton of data from intercepted al qaeda communications. You sit, you cant say let me sort through this data again. You got to start with simple methodology. Then i looked at other aspects, i looked ought a house in memphis, should i look at a thousand ads or is there a simple methodology and what house do i want . Its a simple process to say, please dont start with the data start with the question you want toanceish and slowly do you get to the amount of data you want to deal with. Did you apply there . The tieyranosarus cuff links. That tells me. He cant answer. He cant match these, thats why hes intimidating. Hes thinking i dont know what this stros do with intelligence. Im redirecting myself to the cuff links. The first intelligent thing you said on this show. Thanks, to both of you. Alisyn. Listen to this casey story a.

Two adult women were shot in a northwest section of indianapolis. Investigators believe the victims knew their attackers. Okay more on this strange story, a delaware family is fighting for their lives, Health Officials in the u. S. Believe a powerful and banned pesticide sprayed at their resort could be to blame. Cnns nick valencia has more. Reporter this morning, a criminal investigation under way at this luxury hotel in st. Johns in the u. S. Virgin islands after a family of four on vacation from delaware was allegedly poisoned by a deadly pesticide commonly used in agriculture. It couldnt have happened to a Better Family and better people. Theyre one of those families everyone likes to be around. Reporter the company who rents out avila told cnn the Pest Control Company fumigated it during the family stay. The gas attacks the lungs an nervous system so toxic its banned from use indoors within the u. S. Even the World Meteorological Organization Says its so destructive it continues to the thinning of the earths stratospheric ozone layer. Its scary to think the could happen to somebody you know.

Also it does feed though a luxury place, it feeds that xe naphobia the fear you go to the islands, what is going to happen . Whoever heard of that pesticides making you that sick.

That run i had with the bracket. Im so sorry. Come on. Right. Back to some news here. Isis fighters are on the move in syria. We will take a look at where theyve seized control and where they may be headed next. And Colombia University releases a scathing story about a University Rape story. You will never believe the mrs. s response. Magazines response. Only tmobile guarantees your price will never go up. Thats right, never. Ditch your carrier. And switch to the uncarrier today. Big day . Ah, the usual. Moved some new cars. Hauled a bunch of steel. Kept the supermarket shelves stocked. Made sure everyone got their latest gadgets. Whats up for the next shift . Ah, nothing much. Just keeping the lights on. laugh nice. Doing the big things that move an economy. See you tomorrow, mac. See you tomorrow, sam. Just another day at norfolk southern. Isis fighters seizing nearly total control of a Palestinian Refugee camp in the southern part of syrias capital da pass damascus. Where do the terrorists pose the greatest threat . We will bring in the isis army of terror michael, i want to talk about this mahmoud reasonable camp what is their interest in doing this . This is an interesting case. The mahmoud camp has been held merss willy for a year now. The main camp is an islamist brigade against isis. But right now the dynamics, its hard to getting a rat information balls of the state of siege. Right now the official al qaeda franchise which broke apart from isis over a year ago, theyre now working with isis their rival they have been fighting against forrer control of the camp. Nusra denies the camp a party is pushing back against isis. Why does isis want control of the camp . There is not a lot of resources there, aid cant come in. Isis rarely fights the assad regime, theyre creeping close to damascus theyre trying to take this blighted reasonable population. Because there is not a lot of forces going in there. Theyre already living in a state of second and third class citizenry. Its only made worse now. Damascus, when you talk about isis is gaining ground do they have the ability to take damascus . No they have been there in formidable numbers for quite a while actually. We will get to iraq in a second he. They lost to tikrit. When they tend to lose terrain in iraq they gain it elsewhere, it is the idea to project power. Even when you are losing. Lets move to iraq. We can take a look at where it is, a different situation there. How significant is this . The fall of tikrit is very significant to isis more significant to the Iraqi Government which this is a symbolic victory the groups that have essentially liberated the city hushed the shia militia consortium most backed by iran. They have been continuing since the shia uprising of saddam saddam. Isis held the town for about a month of intense operations aerial bombardment again some 24 to 30,000 shia militia backed by the Iraqi Security force and u. S. Aircraft. Isis is saying look we bled the Iraqi Government dry from there operation. 700 of our guys vs. 30,000 of theirs. Still, its a loss now it means the progovernment sources are moving close to mosul, which is the keys to the kingdom. Lets look at control zones if we can. These are isis actually fighting in these offensive. What does it say to you about longterm goals for them. The thing about isis theyre not good at controlling territory. They do it. If you are governed by them, its because there is no other right. What isis tends to do they roll into a town with maybe 40 guys. They take a town of tun hundreds of people or thousands of people. They say, right, you will pledge loyalty to us. We will install governors of the town. We will fought have a huge force behind them. We will leave them there. Anybody that wants to rebel or oppose us well cut your head off, put it in the middle of the town. Thats how you stay loyal to isis. Isis is politicizeing on the fragmenting of iraq the sunnis are not going to rise up against isis on what they say against tehran. So the sunnis are actually more terrified of the proGovernment Forces than they are of isis. So when we say control versus support, its a nebulous thing. Very quickly to wrap up the support zones, there is an actual area that is fought actively fighting sort of hands up and isis can have its free will there. They can. What is important to understand is why does isis want so much terrain . When they lorded over people they charge more tax the more population control, most of the support networks these are the tribal regions of Eastern Syria and western and northern iraq. So these communities, these populations for centuries, they have been playing very careful political games, trading horses and sort of negotiating with whatever the reigning power is. With it the syrian side and saddams regime before Isis Al Qaeda and iraq or u. S. Forces when they were there. So the point to understand is these guys are fought going to really switch until they see another major power coming in expeling isis and not doing so in a sectarian manner to go after them. How challenging the nature of all of this is. Thank you for having you here. So much smarter than all of us put together. Thats for sure. Rolling stone, they say they redistracted the rape story, why are people saying a bigger price should be paid . Wow. Sweet new subaru, huh mitch . Yep. Youre selling the mitchmobile . Man, we had a lot of good times in this baby. Whats your dad want for it . Like a hundred and fifty grand, two hundred if they want that tape deck.

Only glucerna has carbsteady clinically proven to help minimize blood sugar spikes. Im a bull rider make it part of your daily diabetes plan. So you stay steady ahead. Rolling stone now says its article act an alleged gang rape at a University Campus fraternity was wrong t. Retraction comes from the Columbian Journalism School cowles it a journalism failure when reporting on this story. Lets turn to our cnn media correspondents they have both been following this story very closely. Great to have you both in studio here. Sarah, was there any part of this Rolling Stone story that was true . Well they retracted the whole thing, but there was a big clunk of it in the middle of the story the overarching theme the university of virginia historically did not respond well to victims of Sexual Assault, they never expelled a student, but they did expel them for cheating. That part is true. The gang rape which was the most shocking we no longer believe that is true. So the university of virginia has said this investigation and the criminal investigation both came to the same conclusion that there was no evidence of this. Although we were talking about this yesterday. The police say theyre keeping their investigation opened to the possibility that something bad did happen to her. Maybe somewhere else. Maybe on a different day. Does it sound like they are trying to be nice to the university because of the sensitivity . Theyre close to saying the victim was deceiveing Rolling Stone. The columbia report says nobody knows for sure what happened the alleged victim is the only one that knows. She is the only one not talking. Now we heard from the editors who apologized and the writers have apologized fundamentally, there has been more phone calls made this story wouldnt have been published in the first place because the red flags would have been going on. There are so many stories that are confounding and frustrating. You say there is an issue on campus this going to set the fight against that back . Some student leaders believe its actually done the opposite. Some will say because were all talking about it. And because the university was forced to implement at least for those couple months, they were forced to implement new changes. They have changed the way they held parties, they instituted a zero policy on Sexual Assault. It does im e seem theyre progressing in that area. But there are leaders on campus womens leaders who say as a whole, this is a sex act because it gives people a reason to doubt the next accuser within she comes forward. Thats a real concern. Rolling stone did not follow the rules of journalism 101, someone tells you a regular story or outrageous story, you corroborate it. You second source it. Apparently the report edidnt go to jackie the alleged victims friends. She told her friends. They witnessed her being distraught. And the reporter it turns out didnt ask the friend. It remind me if its too true check it out. Something bad may have happened to her the idea oseven men, mull million hours, her coming away bloodied bruised, battered those details were fought able to be verified t. Key point, the Three Friends werent contacted. Sarah was able to reach the friends. Theyre horrified by what Rolling Stone did to their campus. Thats interesting. They said they would have talked to Rolling Stone had they reached out. They told us that. They told columbia that. All she had to do was pick up the phone and call those friends. Bus those friends say they would have talked and Rolling Stone now says if they had that information from the friends, they would have started to go back. You have to ask, why didnt they . Look those sixes are sensitive especially when you deal with a sex crime, who want wants to come forward . Nobody wants to deal with it. You dealt with it in sandusky. Its not easy. When i was reading this in my personal point of view in that case and cases we cover here all the time there is such a rick russ review process. I mean lawyers are constantly asking us questions, who did you talk to . What did that person say . Can we call their friend . I had to call lists of people. It appears that none of that happens here. They base their entire article on one person. What normally happens . The audience at home there are no processes normally. This was a systemic failure. Lots of mistakes that led up to this great mistake the Fact Checkers made mistakes frankly the publisher made mistakes all those combined got us to this point. Usual lip journalists get it right. Heres the question can Rolling Stone bounce back there . You know you get fired all the time now. This is now the most controversial thing, the publisher says sabrina rudeen early may write for the magazine again. Why arent they firing anybody . You can call it loyalty. I think one of the conclusions was this report published by columbia in Rolling Stone magazine is punishment enough. This is already embarrassing enough. I dont know everybody agrees that nobody should be disciplined here. They said they didnt believe these mistakes were intention am. Its something to think about. I often feel they pull the trigger too fast to fire people when you den even know what happened. You ought to wonder how Brian Williams feels at home hes been suspended for six months a very different story, in this case credit to Rolling Stone at least they have come forward. Brian, sarah, thank you. There are problems on campus especially that one. That doesnt go away just because this story did. All right, what do you think . Do you think he should have been firing . Is it that important to you at Rolling Stone magazine . How do you keep it alive . You let us know. You know how to get us on twitter. Okay. This is a big story for you this morning. There is a lot of news. Lets get right to it. From Nuclear Weapons we become a political football. We are powerful enough to test these propositions without putting us at risk. The manhunt intensifying for the alleged mastermind of last weeks university terror attack. These people are using the most basic means to murder as many people as possible. Yemen has the full attention of the u. N. City council. Generally wards are not won by airstrikes. Closing arguments are set to begin this morning in the Boston Marathon bombing trial. The judge is not involved in the sentencing. Its the jury. This is new day with chris cuomo, Alisyn Camerota and mikaela pereira. Good morning. We begin with the Iranian Nuclear deal telling the framework, our best bet to keep Nuclear Weapons out of reach vowing to probably israel. It bears repeating. The stakes are high here Nuclear Weapons, yet the obstacle still at home seems to be the Political Climate with congress. To be clear, he has a lot of work to do. Lets go to cnn live at the white house with the latest. Reporter critics in congress are trying to kill this deal. Critics abroad too, are trying to kill the deal. President obama is trying to reframe this dewitt and give a defense. The deal we believe is the best bet to stop iran from developing a Nuclear Weapon and in this interview, he gives a real big picture defense on why they offered up communication lines with eastern, a country still on the state funds terrorism list in the first place, someone that he says was able to give his negotiators leeway to make some concessions. He does realize that the sanctions that regime that we put together was weakening iran over the long term and that you know if in fact he wanted to see iran reenter the community of nations, then there will have to be changes. Reporter president obama said he observed over the course of these negotiations, a real practical streak with the Iranian Regime because he says theyre worried about that self preservation. That said he does admit there is still real trust and thats something that doesnt fade away between these two countries. Thats exactly, alisyn why many people in congress say they do not want to formally sign to this deal because of that lack of trust. All right, thank you, sunlen about that background. We are learning more about that university in kenya terrorist attack. The midreport says they are targeting al shabab terrorists connected to that massacre. Reporter kenyan authorities have named what they say is the mastermind behind the attack that killed 147 people. Hes a man in charge of the militia along the long porous border of kenya. Heres what we know so far. This morning, kenya on heightened alert. Even easter prayers shaken security checks outside churches. Kenyan forces on guard after the terrorist Group Al Shabab threatened quote, another blood bath over the weekend. Relatives grieving in complete anguish as kenyan forces remain on the lookout for the al shabab militant behind the Garissa University attack that killed nearly 150 people. The government says Mohammed Mahmoud wanted for a bounty of more than 200,000 is the mastermind known by other aliases, a former religious teacher and commander in somalia. According to a Ministry Document given to cnn the Al Qaedalinked militant is in charge of external operations against kenya. Garissa sits on one of the longest fault lines in the world and launches a sub saharan government to the south. Our forefathers bled and died for this nation and we will do everything to defend our way of life. Reporter meanwhile, Kenyas Interior Ministry identifying another attacker. This man, an apparent homegrown terrorist the 20something son of a government chief of somali decent. His father says he has been missing since 2013 while working for a bank. The Ministry Says he disappeared to somalia last year. I think its important when we use phrases such as mastermind they are using the most bake means as possible to kill as many people as possible. Back to you. All right. Important point. Thank you very much for that. So al shabab may sound like a new group, but they have been targeted be i the u. S. For years. That raises an obvious question is the strategy to combat the terrorist group working . Lets go to Barbara Starr joining us from washington with more. Reporter first of all you talk about strategy, you have to talk about the threat. What is the threat to al shabab and americans. The top u. S. Military commander for africa said about al shabab a few days ago on capitol hill. General david rod zbazing and i am quoting, al shabab remains a persistent threat to the u. S. And regional interests. Alshabaab has broughtened its operations to conduct asim met trek a trick attacks. This group is trying to kill as many people as it can. The u. S. Strategy has been to assist the African Forces and u. S. Troops navy seal commandos, drone attacks, helicopter attacks over the last couple of years have gone into somalia on several occasions to try and get to the alshabaab leadership. They have had a mixed track record on this because they are very well dug in very difficult to find. So is the strategy really going to change . Probably not. The u. S. Doesnt have a lot of intelligence on the ground. But nobody is dismissing the alshabaab as a threat. One of the biggest concerns if they flourish there, they can recruit people here in the United States for the cause. That is the big fear thank you so much for that report. Lets bring in our cn in analyst and mike rogers cnn commentator. Gentleman, great to have you both here. Mike yemen and somalia were both touted by president obama recently as success stories. Places where the u. S. Counterterrorism efforts were working. Let me read to you what president obama said quote the strategy of taking out thrift i terrorists who threaten us while supporting partners on the front line is within we have successfully per sued in yemen and somalia for years. Mike that was seven months ago, september of present the 14. Was the president wrong then . Was he overly naive . Well he certainly wasnt reading the intelligence coming in on both of those regions. As my mom used to say, alisyn you can hang the drapes it doesnt mean your house is clean. Heres the problem, there were other underlying factors in those countries over years. Policy frameworks never quite aligned with what the new threats were. In yemen, its iran ramping up support for Houthi Rebels at that time were a separatist organization that had certainly extremist ties. Well we watched over years as that got more sophisticated, better arms better weapons, better training it resulted in what you see today. Al shabab has been a little different. This was a place we had americans show up in the fighting there over a period of time. There was no good way to put pressure on al shabab. We had fits and starts about u. S. Involvement into any limited degree even with special capably forces to try to prussia them back from a place they could train and recruit in somalia. The game changed, though roughly a few years ago, 2012 when al shabab pledged allegiance to al qaeda. So now theyre a full blown al qaeda affiliate, which is why i think you see these external attacks into kenya. Thats interesting that mike says that the president wasnt reading the intelligence thoroughly enough t. Writing was on the wall seven months ago . Even when the president said that a lot of people in fellow counterterrorism arched their eyebrows to say what exactly is he talking about . Yes, you could say that in a very narrow sense these groups have been less active against u. S. Interests, but as weve seen in kenya, theyve got other targets in what weve seen in somalia is not just a u. S. Effort. Its been an african effort. Kenyan troops are a part of a Peace Keeping force to drive out al shabab in somalia that had a certain amount of success. The territory under al shabab control is much smaller now than it used to be. These guys dont fight fair. They can do what weve just seen over the past week. These horrific attack it doesnt take a lot of money. It doesnt take a great deal of planning. It takes a small somebody of people willing to die and kim on a massive scale. Mike even in the media, we have been so focused on Isis Al Shabab has sort of been depicted as this rag tag bunch of disorganized chaotic fighters. Have we all underestimated them . Are they more akin to isis tan we thought . I would not put them on the same level of organization of ability to perform large scale military functions burks they are an important al qaeda affiliate in africa and so theres other afilliates Al Qaeda Mount magrib in the northern part of africa. We watched them a more sophisticated organization. Remember thats where most of the ransoms started. They would take kidnaps in the magrib in the north and Fund Al Qaeda world wide. So this is a huge problem. We saw when they pledged in 2012 al shabab which is now down in somalia, you had this new affiliate to al qaeda, which means they would get training and better expertise, more cooperation. Clearly, what you are seeing is not to the same capably as isis or al qaeda, its Getting Better theyre getting more aggressive about its use. Theyre doing that at a time when there is this global comp ticks for who is the biggest, baddest jihadist of the Movement Today to try to attract money and people. They enjoy two advantages which is not necessarily true for isis. One they are fighting at home in a place they have been fighting for a long time. They know their terrain. Two, theyre not fighting against serious militarys against isis is fighting bashar alassads army in syria and now a rejuvenated Iraqi Military with u. S. And International Air support in iraq. Somalia, the somalian forces are nowhere near dont have that kind of capability. So al shabab has that going for it. Its fighting at home and fighting against a relatively weak territory. Thats what makes 24e78 more dangerous. Lets talk about their resources, are they truly a threat here to the u. S. Homeland . Obviously, anybody can be a lone wolf and say they pledge allegiance to al shabab or al qaeda and do something terrible. Is alshabaab the thinking that they really could send resources here and make some sort of catastrophic hit . Its probably not the highest threat to the homeland in that respect. However, theres two things that would worry me. One is can they inspire someone back here in the states to do an attack . And weve seen theyve made those attempts in the past. Theyve tried to inspire followers of alshabaab in the United States to do something in the United States. Thats always a concern. To mount an operation that would actually get to the United States would be pretty difficult for alshabaab. You get their logistics, training and access to a movement to an organization which is why theyve joined. So that part you have to watch closely. How long do you want to wait before they become an organization that could reach out and strike the United States. We only have a few seconds left. Is this something airstrikes could take care of . Can kenyans have announced this morning theyve launch airstrikes against camps. It will be a part of the plan. Thats what weve seen if weve learned anything from all of our terrorist operations is you cant solve this problem to the air. We do seem to be learning that lesson over and over again. Nice to talk to both of you. Thank you very much. Alisyn Rolling Stone retracting its controversial story about a gang rape at uva. The National Journalism examined the reporting and says a woman who claim shelves gang raped should be discredited. The author has issued an apology but Rolling Stones publisher says he is not going to fire anyone he says the mistakes were not intentional. What we have could be the youngest terrorrelated arrest ever a. 14yearold boy and 16yearold girl were taken into custody for suspicion of an attack of terrorism. Both are out on bail until a may 28th court hearing. Wait until you see this. Its an extraordinary rescue in russia. Yes, they are rocking a train. Thats dozens of passengers working together to move a train. Yes, a 70yearold womans foot got stuck between the train and the platform. Amazingly, she walked away unhurt unhurt. And a similar thing happened last year in australia commuters helped tilt a train to rescue a man who had become stuck in the dpap. So speak for your fellow new yorkers. They will do this for us if and when we find ourselves in a ton of trouble. They will yell at you first, hey, howd you getture foot stuck in there, now, look at you, how do you feel now . They moved a train with bare brute strength. A group of humanity. An early dose of good stuff. There you go. Enjoy that. Meanwhile, back to our top story, selling the Nuclear Agreement to skeptics why president obama says the eastern deal reached last week is israels best option for security. And Hillary Clinton launching her second president ial campaign. When . Any moment. Well tell you why thats expected and why its expected to be nothing like her 2008 campaign. How is it going to be different . John king knows, he will take you inside politics. If you have moderate to severe Rheumatoid Arthritis like me and youre talking to your rheumatologist about a biologic. This is humira. This is humira helping to relieve my pain and protect my joints from further damage. This is humira giving me new perspective. Doctors have been prescribing humira for ten years. Humira works for many adults. It targets and helps to block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to ra symptoms. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers including lymphoma have happened, as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if youve had tb hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Talk to your doctor and visit humira. Com this is humira at work the nuclear deal we have put together is not based on somehow regime changes. It is a good deal even if iran doesnt change at all. Even if the president of the United States there arguing in the alternative, if you dont like this deal the way it is if thats true you will like it better than any alternative. The president is starting to push to get skeptics on board with the iran deal. The biggest skeptics of course israel. They seem thoroughly unmoved by Benjamin Netanyahu who said here and there that this deal makes their situation worse. Joining us this morning to discuss Peter Barnhart contributing editor for atlanta media and the coauthor of going to tehran. I set the table with this peter, hillary, here is senator feinstein with her rebuttal to netanyahu. Well i think hes said what hes had to say and to be candid with you, this can backfire on him. And i wish that he would contain himself because he has put out no real alternative. And his speech the congress no real alternative. Since then no real alternative. Well the president cant say it hillary. Does it help the president s cause for the senator the senior senator to get up there and say, he should just contain himself and be quiet . We heard what he has to say. He has no better deal. This is as good as it gets. Its politically important for her to make that argument. We have seen for many years, too few people challenge mr. Netanyahu. He challenged us into a false iraq a false bill of good president netanyahu, that iraq had Nuclear Weapons, we had to invade iraq and overthrow that government. Similarly, hes been selling us a false set of goods about iran for 20 years. What he is desperately afraid of is there may be a neutral monitoring mechanism set up where we dont feed to turn to or we are not vulnerable to his set of false facts him hes afraid we may develop a relationship with the Islamic Republic of iran where we hear from them directly from their foreign minister the head of their Atomic Energy program directly. We have our own eyes an ears on the ground. He is desperate to prevent that. Peter, false facts, doesnt the pain fact that matters to israel iran says it wants to destroy them and this is not an f but a when deal so eventually they may get a nuke because they are sneaky and shouldnt israel be of the most high level of concern . Well but the interesting thing is if you look at the debate inside israels thursday deal its not that everyone is as negative as Benjamin Netanyahu, there have been prominent figure the chief Foreign Affairs adviser to hertzog the opponent who says this deal isnt so bad for israel. I think diane fine steins most critical point is what is the alternative. Even if you believe this deal is not perfect for americas point of view netanyahus logic is america can increase the pressure and get a better deal. Even if america increases sanctions, if the u. S. Walks away from this deal the rest of the world is likely to start to unravel their sanctions. Once china, for instance starts importing a lot more iranian oil, that will counteract the effect of u. S. Sanctions and pressure wont go up on iran it will go down which will mean our chances of getting a better deal will be virtually impossible. On the other side netanyahu says i just got reelected. What do you mean people dont accept my view . We dont know whether or not weve squeezed iran hillary. Im directing this question to you because you love it. We only did, two, three years of harsh sanctions, lets try more of that and get all te alies to do that. Then we will see what iran wants to put on the table. Fair point . He pedalled the case where we need to impose crippling sanctions on iraq. Half of them iraqis half children. Even then it didnt work to change saddam husseins calculation on the Nuclear Program. Thats a dangerous trajectory for us to go on. I think this narrative about israel is important. We will hear it over and over and over again. Even though its very hard for americans to take in. Iran has not said has not threatened to attack israel or wipe israel off the map. That has been distorted extremely out of context. What iran has a problem with with israel we will see this now in the spotlight with netanyahu and his government. They see the Israeli Government as an apartheid government that cannot last. That it is on a trajectory eventually to be one state with one person and one vote. Now many people here dont like that but its very different from a threat to attack israel. What we are going to see, while Benjamin Netanyahu makes his argument he is going to be making irans arguments for them. Thats when we will see more and more in the spotlight. The president is never going to convince congress that eastern is not a threat to israel. It mattered to democrats and republicans. The last word Peter Barnhart you guys seem to think this is pretty easy for the president to get this done as you two are articulateing. What do you think is happening with congress . They dont seem as accepting as you two do. I dont think its easy at all. I think iran is very rhetoric against israel makes eight lot harder. But i think at the end of the day, one of the ways if which netanyahu shot himself in the foot he made it so partisan the republicans cant defeat this deal without a significant amount of democratic support. Benjamin netanyahu made it easier for bruk obama to keep the democrats on board. Thank you very much. We appreciate having you on the show as always alisyn. Chris, rand paul promising to be a different kind of republican leader. He is expected to jump into the race soon. Will he shake up the gop . Details ahead on inside politics. Big day . Ah, the usual. Moved some new cars. Hauled a bunch of steel. Kept the supermarket shelves stocked. Made sure everyone got their latest gadgets. Whats up for the next shift . Ah, nothing much. Just keeping the lights on. laugh nice. Doing the big things that move an economy. See you tomorrow, mac. See you tomorrow, sam. Just another day at norfolk southern. Normally people wear pants. Yeah thats why im hiding captain obvious. Not very well. I found you immediately. You know what else is easy to find . A new hotel with the hotels. Com app. I dont need a new hotel room, i just need to get back into this one. Gary . Its wednesday gary i know that janet hotels. Com is more helpful than janet. Republican leader. President obama makes a sale to skeptics talling the tentative iran deal our best bet by far to make sure iran doesnt get a Nuclear Weapon. The president said he would keep all options available if tehran doesnt comply. Benjamin netanyahu is not convinced saying the frame threatens israel and its neighbors. The alleged mastermind of that university terror attack. Kenyas men industry naming an alshabaab terrorist Mohammad Jaweed azmath as responsible and they bombed two camps overnight in somalia. Authorities say one of the attackers was the son of a kenyan government official. This morning, thousands of palestinians are trapped at a reasonable camp in syria where isis and another group linked to al qaeda are now in control. Activists say food water and medical supplies are running out. Plo Officials Say they are hearing reports of kidnappings, beheadings and mass killings. Further reasons isis is galvanizing International Resistance as the u. S. Is pushing to deliver humanitarian aid. All right, something lighter here the seventh installment of the fast and furious franchise raked in nearly 144 million. Also the biggest opening for a movie in april and the ninth highest opening in history. They are flocking to see paul walker in one of his final roles. You remember he died in a car crash before that was finished. Amazing what they do with editing. You are a furious guy. I cant wait to see i. It will be more poignant because he didnt live to see it. Lets talk politics. We want to get to inside politics with john king. Happy monday joen. Chris and mikaela, as well. Any second now, any second means Hillary Clinton could end the drama if there is drama left. With me to go inside politics this morning, jeff you write a piece on cnn politics. Com. I urge everyone to take a peak at it that says aids were told essentially get back as of this morning, because this could happen any second. As we sit right here probably any second any day the reality. They signed the lease on friday which means they have 15 days to act on this president ial campaign. Really more importantly whats happening is how they are going to present her as a candidate. We are finding out there will be no big rallies. No big crowds trying to make this smaller one on one conversation trying to reintroduce her. The big question, can someone like this sofa mus, so well known be introduced second time around. Someone with a 100 identity. Let me read one sentence from your article here. She and advisers prepare to launch the campaign here work is guided be aa set of humble principle, less mention of her own ambitions. The air of inevitability has a lot of democrats are complaining, where are you . Come out to iowa come to New Hampshire, do small events fine. Martin omalley and jim webb will be in iowa and among democrats there is an air of inevitably. Until she has a viable challenger there will be an air of inevitability. When you have someone like Martin Omalley slowly presenting himself as a challenger. He hasnt given a reason why omalley rather than clinton. Thats their challenge. Otherwise, theyre a sacrificial lamb. Going up against hillary for kicks. A lot of people are saying lets see a race. Lets not have a coronation lets have a fight and test her, get the rust off in a good campaign. Yet, listen to gary hart in a Political Interview on sunday not gary hart the former Democratic Senate im told the Clinton Campaign intends to raise 1 billion. Now, that ought to frighten every american. If youve got a billion dollars to run for president , how many people can do that . Only the clintons and the bushes. Now any modern day president ial campaign is going to be a billion dollars. But the reality is what are advisers finding within they go out there . Theyre visiting i, what visiting New Hampshire. Theyre finding some democrats are not all that excited to see her. They want a campaign and a race. It would be easier to run against some person than kind of this mythic physical out there in the party. It would be easier to run against an Elizabeth Warren rather than the idea of Elizabeth Warren. We dont think she is running, the Clinton Campaign she will be running against herself. Particularly concern among aggressives. They think theyre going to be left behind. Which they have been by this president in some ways. There is that frustration there. As you say, there is a mythic figure. There isnt anyone right now. If you dont have an ideology. Thats how she got boat. Barak obama to the left of the iraq issue. One other ting before we move on she has an appointment yet to be scheduled as far as we know with the select committee of benghazi. They want to interview her in private t. Biggest issue is why did she wipe her private email server . Did the people inside the campaign think thats a speed bump and get through it or its a potential danger zone . The people believe this ultimately will be a good thing for her. They say she will only appear publicly and they believe that running against house republicans, against the congress is a good thing. We den know whats in all the emails. If they can say its a speed bump well see. I think we still have to see how she presents herself in that hearing. Its a public official with a lot of transparency and the like i think she still has a lot of complaining to do. How you dont have an outside source saying okay you give the government everything it deserves without a Second Opinion on that one she has answering to do there. We dont tow when the Hillary Clinton one will come. We know tomorrow rand paul the Onetime Tea Party darl is getting ready in a little bit of a web video. Senator rand paul filibustered yesterday for almost 13 hours on the senate floor. I mean hes out there talking, he is using the filibuster the way its meant to be used. Its time for a new way a. New set of ideas. A new leader. One you can trust. One who works for you. So there is zero republican front runner right now. Youd have to say Jeb Bush Ted Cruz scott walker. Nobody is about 20 in the national polls. Nobody has a lead in iowa or nampb. I think Time Magazine ran a cover the most interested man, most interested politician in america. Has he lost his niche trying to cater to an establishment, im not my dad, im not rand paul who wants to pull out of the International Commitments from around the world, in doing that has he lost his niche in the party . He could. He definitely could. You have hasntty jon swamplt hes trying to be the candidate in the middle. What his views that he has expressed in the last couple weeks, particularly on gay marriage are fought that. Right. He says he never proposed cutting offer israeli aid. We have video of him on cnn saying we should think about cutting off israeli aid. He was someone who was very reluctant and in this race could be lets be careful about al shabab and boka haram, what are we going to do . Again, is he going to find a spot to the right of marco rubio . It seems hard to imagine. The rand palm of a year ago seemed like such an interesting candidate. Really the newer version of his father. A lot of people were supportive of him. Is that sentiment out there . Now hes tried to become more of the establishment. His first challenge will be running against himself, against all those old statements he says. He still has a big area of growth. I think hes one of the few who can expand the party. What kind of candidate is he going to be . We saw it as an optimistic sentiment. We can have a list of what he said at one point, no im different. We can go down the list. Not to underestimate an organized race. But there is still a libertarian streak up in New Hampshire. Even though hes sort of stumbled of late. He has a great online presence. Well see if he raises money. Alisyn chris, im sorry, my bracket. Im limping at the end, a guy we have to pay tribute to he didnt win the race for president. Hes in the 98th percentile the espn bracket challenge is mitt romney. He got the final four right. He has the two teams in tonights championship right. Either mitt romney went back to his crunching days or got lucky throwt this dark. Thats a good bracket. I guess he didnt use the uniform color test like my coanchor Alisyn Camerota did. John king shut short. Heading into baseball svenlt are you choosing red sox. I have duke he has wisconsin, well be up late watching. Do you feel good about your sox this year do you . I do. Well see them opening in philadelphia. As always well see how the pitching works out. Thats true. John king always a pleasure. Speaking of arguments, closing arguments in the Boston Marathon trial. Can the defense convince the jury not the kill the boston bomber . We have the key to the case ahead. Okay, listen up im reworkin the menu. Mayo . C i on bombing trial in the coming days jurors will decide not only on a verdict but Dzhokhar Tsarnaev will face the Death Penalty. Here to break it all down so much to discuss, cnn commentator and legal analyst mel robbins and joey jackson. Hello, my friends. Mel, it seems to most of us a fairly open and shut case. Do you expect the decision to come from the jury fairly quickly . Yes, i do. There are 30 counts. We know 17 carry the Death Penalty. They are very straight forward. I think what we will see is closing arguments and depending on how long those go they can take the balance of the day. Will you hear the judge give the charges the instructions. Then the jury can get the case first thing today or tomorrow morning, mikaela i think we will have a verdict in a day or two. Speedy and rapid, absolutely. We know the defense attorney well versed in this strategy. She actually said in those Opening Statements it was him, not refuting the fact that her client was there. What was her end game . What is her strategy . Its one strategy only. The reality is this. What shes attempting to do is spare his life. There is no really mystery in terms of whether he will be convicted. You no ehe will be convicted. Absolutely. It was him. I think what she is trying to do is establish a context upon which it was him. He was the puppet. His brother led the way. He was controlled. Hess manipulated. In the defense case they talked about supplies and bomb components. Guess what mikaela, they were the prints of his older controlling brother tamerlan and they were not his and the computer searches guess what as to that they were also the searches about the gun. The searches about bombs and that type thing. They came from the computer of the manipulateing, controlling older brother tamerlan not my client. So thats what theyll go on to in the next phase. How long is the defense . You use what you have. The reality is that theyre very limited here. Why . Because it, it was him. Because so what do you if you troy to say it wasnt you lose credibility. Thats all you have as an attorney is credibility. If the end game is to spare his life that itself the only road you can go down. Go with his strength. He was seen in video, ka ut in that boat. There are so many aspects that are a home run for the prosecution, in terms of he was a victim to his brother his brother enlisted him. His brother essentially influenced him into this heinous act. Dhouveng that matters to the jurors . Well it only has to matter to within of them. Because in order to get a Death Penalty verdict, you need a unanimous verdict for that. So the u. S. Code 228 is what whether control the next phase of the trial and what we are going to see happen is the prosecution goes first and they present what are called the aggregating factors. Who those include are the natural crime and the heinous and lack of remorse and response by tsarnaev in the fact that he committed a crime against america and there are aggregateing factors, two of the victim one, sean collier, a Law Enforcement officer and Martin Richard just 8yearsold. Those are major aggregating factors t. Mitigating factors are his age the fact ha he may have been impaired with wed. The fact that he had no criminal record and the family history, but whether or not that makes a difference that remains to be seen. One more thing, mikaela, under the code the defense does not have to give us notice as to what they plan to argue. So we dont know yet what exactly theyre going to do. We dont know whether or not they will put Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on the stand to humanize him. Impaired with weed for that entire siege, the days leading up to it and the days after when he tries to hide the evidence and influence his friends to do so . Yeah i dont think its a viable argument at all. But as joey said earlier, you take whatever you got. You throw it along the wall. You hope some kasscaserole sticks with one juror. He has to stay off that witness stand. The reality is that he would be savaged be i the prosecution and it would be so much he would have to admit. Not only that in terms of exposing him to a satisfy annual cross examination t. Other this eng is he could wreck his own defense. Does he say i want to die . Please put me to death. That certainly, if the jury believes he wants to do i, maybe they dont put him to death. There is an interesting psychology and die namic you will play out and obviously were presuming the jury will find him guilty. I think at a good presumption to be making. There is no doubt about his guilt that he was involved. Talk to us what we can expect. Because the might be knew. Interestingly enough mikaela, what you will expect is the why he did it. I think you will learn who he is. During the trial, itself we heard from one friend of his. Thats it. Thats a lot because the judge has limited what the defense is able to do in terms of the blame the older defense, why . Its not a defense, its a mitigating factor. You have the opportunity the defense does to speak to the issues of mitigation. So we will learn about his family history. How he grew up what was his psychology what he is all about. Are there any instances of abuse or misdirection . What was the relationship like between him and his brother. Was his brother manipulateing controlling. So this is going to be a look mikaela, into the window of exactly who is sitting in that chair and why he was compelled to do what he did. I want to get both your quick takes. Do you think the jury is going to elect death or life mem, what do you think . You know this is a tough one. I think the biggest piece of evidence is him standing behind Martin Richard with the backpack placing the bomb and walking away. I actually the think theyll find one juror that does not vote for the Death Penalty. I think he will get life in prison. Mel may be right. I think the reality is this is such a compelling act that we all can relate to and it affected and devastated the Boston Community but the nation as a whole and certainly many things we dont like as americans, powerism has to be at the top. Im not surprised if they sentence him to death. Boy, those jurors are having to go through a lot. Maybe this city of boston and our nation canally after all this is done. Thank you for all your expertise. Another story that should if on your radar, california is suffering historic drought. So what do you say . I live in new york . Wrong. Empathy aside, you could feel their pain and real soon in your wallet. Well tell you why ahead. Ey center. No shes not. Why are you sitting at our new table. I had to be here. Be a part of it. Also keep a close eye on california. Thats right. Im looking at the drought in california, growing a third of our vegetables and twothirds of fruits. A four year long drought driveing up prices of broccoli grapes melon melons peppers. And we could see prices increase. And the strong dollar needs imports are cheaper and this drought forced farmers to abandon thousands of acres and trying to decide if they should plant less next year and could affect food prices next year. Imagine if youre talking about grapevines and velced and youre planting less that could affect production in the future. Arent they pointing to the source of this . Look at this. A pound of almond. 226 thousand gallons of water to produce one pound of wallalmonds and beef also. And you javierry brown restrict restricting water but agricultural is the big water. Youre telling us to lay off the nuts thats what youre trying to say . Chris, how about everything in moderation . How about everything in moderation. Do you know that term moderation . No. President obama is selling the iran deal. But israels Prime Minister is not buying it. The question is is there a middle here . Will they meet. And who loss if they cant and how.

Welcome to your new day. Its monday april 6th, 8 00 in the east. First up president obama says the Iran Nuclear Deal is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Many in congress are saying maybe so but not in my lifetime. The president has to find a way to get israel and Netanyahu Congress on board. Some of the president s biggest critics accused him of making too many concessions among them prm netanyahu who calls this a historically bad deal. What do we know . There are critics in congress trying to kill this deal and critics abroad trying to kill this deal. This is president obama trying to wrangle all that opposition and frame it for himself, in his opinion as he sees it the best audio difficulty failure of his presidency if this makes israel more vulnerable. What i would say to the israeli people, there is no formula, no option to prevent iran from getting a Nuclear Weapon that will be more effective than the Diplomatic Initiative and framework we put forward and thats demonstrably. Congress will be back in town next week and theyre ready to challenge the details of this deal for president obama. The president indicated in that interview an openness some sort of willingness to have Congress Take a nonbinding vote where members would be able to register their disapproval or approval of the deal but without it preventing him from executing the details. Chris, many in Congress Likely Wont go for that. Lets try and figure out why. Lets bring in senator tim canekaine kaine. A democrat. Thank you for joining us. Hope you had a holy day weekend. It says you need to do this deal this is the best deal on the table. Let me try and test it. Bebe bibis main point is iran wants to kill us and youre going to allow them to do that with this deal. Look iran is not a front. Iran right now is a deep enemy. The question isnt what you have a friend or enemy, its whether you want an adversary with a Nuclear Weapon or without a Nuclear Weapon. The goal is to have an enemy without a Nuclear Weapon. While i think congress should say grace over many of these sanction after thursday i see they are positive and have to be verified by the end of june. The administrations diplomatic effort i think has produced positives thus far and we need to continue to monitor that. The goal is positive however, the entity you are working with in iran cannot be trusted and you are trusting them and they are going to find a way around this and it will now be done in a way that has international respect and the economic wherewithal to forward their mission. Thats the concern. Chris. Chris, thats the Prime Ministers approach. He does not believe there is any possibility of a good deal. The issue of this deal is were not trusting iran. One of the two most important parts of the deal is the intrusive nature of inspections, some announced in the framework are permanent forever inspection inspections. Iran according to the framework agreed to the iaea Additional Protocol which is in stru siv inspections to make sure theyre not cheating and not breaking towards Nuclear Weaponry. We dont have that capacity and didnt have that capacity before the negotiations started. That this is guarantee, inspections the guarantee iran doesnt cheat and the inspections give us significant in tell if they are cheating we can take more military action against them. This is not about trusting iran about depriveing them of a Nuclear Weapon so they cant harm weapons in the world they hid one of their centrifuges 200 feet underground and notoriously bad at what they allow and playing the system. Show no respect for International Comedy thus far, holding an american hostage. Who knows who else is held hostage. Look what theyre doing in yemen. Why would you do a deal like this instead of just squeezeing them with more sanctions . You do it to stop them from getting a Nuclear Weapon chris. You have to be realistic. We have squeezed iran with more sanctions and those sanctions have hurt their economy and brought them to the table. It has not slowed down their Nuclear Program, to the contrary it has accelerated their Nuclear Program because theyre in resistance mode because the whole world is against them and then they will accelerate to getting a Nuclear Weapon. Sanctions on their economy have hurt them but havent slowed their Nuclear Program and the way to get them to slow the Nuclear Program is to get them to make concessions. They have made a deal to roll back the stockpile of a 95 roll back of the stockpile. Questions, how will they do it . Can we trust them to do it . Can we make sure 300 is the limit . If that sticks in an ultimate deal that is a huge concession by iran. This isnt about trusting a nation that is an adversary or enemy. This is about putting them under tight controls including inspections to guarantee this enemy does not become a nuclear pow sneer there are a lot offivesoffive s a lot of ifs and it creates questions. And senator, both houses of Congress However you can figure it out you will get an up or down vote on this deal. Thats what they both want as you well know. Do you think it can be done . Im the cosponsor with senator corker and worked on the drafting of it to guarantee congress a vote. I think its important because the stakes are high as you suggest. Fundamentally this is a negotiate what must iran do to get out from under congressional sanctions. Theres no way congress will not weigh in. The only question will there be carefully drawnup rules how we engage or will the engagement be a freeforall . A vote or the vote like an adviseing consent like the treaty ratification process, like if you vote and it goes down the deal goes down you think hell give that much . The counterproposal is the matter the current proposal is theres a 60 day review period and we either approve, take no action or disapprove. If we approve, take no action the deal goes forward at least in its initial phase. At the end of the day, probably after many years, what iran wants is a complete repeal of the sanction statutes and that would take a vote in both houses and iran knows that. If we take no action that should authorize the deal and congressional sanctions to be given. Do you think congress can get it done . Do you think you can get it done . I think we can. If the framework the president announced thursday into a verify verifiable deal. There are some kwepsquestions. Thursday didnt talk about how a verifyiable relief would be raised how you reduce the stockpile. Why not get those answers. Its coming to a head right now. You know you wont have those answers and how can you make the case to the peoples satisfaction if you dont know those answers. The bill corker and i have is not an answer once the deal is done heres the process that will follow. I actually think the bill strengthens the hands of the negotiates as theyre in this final phase. They get to say to the iranian, like the iranians say to us we have to sell this to the congress. This deal has to be sold to the Iranian Parliament especially on the inspections regime. I think it strengthens the negotiates hands heres this deal and we have to sell it. I think it already has led to strengthening of the deal and well see going forward. If congress establishes clear goals, that will not weaken our hand it will strengthen it. Senator kaine cosponsor with senator bob corker. Thank you for coming on new day. Well be following this very closely of course. Thank you, chris. Alisyn. New developments in kenya where officials are strengthen strengthening the manhunt for the mastermind of last weeks terror attack and they bombed two al shabaab camps overnight. Reporter kenyan authorities named what they say is the mastermind behind the attack that killed 147 people at the university. Hes a man in charge of the mission along the long porous border of somalia and cross border attacks of kenya. Heres what we know so far. This morning, kenya on heighten heightened alert. Even easter prayers shaken. Security checks outside churches. Kenyan force on guard after the terrorist Group Al Shabaab threatened another bloodbath over the weekend. Relatives grieveing. In complete anguish as kenyan force remain on the lookout for the al shabaab militant behind the aggressive university attack that killed nearly 150 people. The government says Mohammad Mahmoud wanted for a bounty of 200,000 200,000 is the mastermind. Known by other aliases, former religious teacher the regional Al Shabaab Commander in somalia. The Al Qaeda Linked militant is in charge of external operations against kenya. Garris sa garrissa sits on one of the longest fault lines, the christians population to the south and largely Muslim Population to the north. Our forefathers bled and died for this nation. We will do everything to defend our way of life. Reporter meanwhile, kenyas interior minister identifying another attacker this man, abdu lal abduuhalli. His father says his son has been missing since 2013 while working for a bank and the Ministry Says he disappeared in somalia last year. Reporter i think its important when we use phrases mastermind they are using the most basic means to kill as many people as possible. Back to you. The terrorist al shabaab is no surprise to u. S. Officials. They have been working on it for years. Now does the u. S. Strategy need tweak tweaking. Barbara starr is live. Hi. Reporter good morning. The military helicopter raids, all of it has gone into the raised in shabab in somalia in recent years. There has been limited success getting the leaders. In kenya, al shabaab very active under this leadership weve seen attack the university. The top military talked about the strength of shabab. General David Rodriguez testify testifying before Congress Said about al shabaab, i it remains a persistent threat to the u. S. And regional interests. Al shabaab has broadened its operations to conduct asymmetric attacks, these type of attacks against socalled soft targets that reach such h destruction. Can al sha bob reach out and conduct a major assault into the united . The intelligence assessment is probably not. But they are very active going after targets in their region. The big concern is they might be able to recruit somali americans living in this country to go back to somalia and fight or stage lone wolf attacks here in the u. S. It was just in february al shabaab issued a videotape threatening to attack u. S. Shopping malls. Back to you guys. Incredible as it sounds any would want to join a group like that we see it happen. We have to be aware of theg. News. Were getting close, really close. Thats the news on headquarteredHillary Clinton announceing her campaign for the white house and opening an office in brooklyn and heres what the team will look like. I got to tell you im reading her horoscope today and shes a scorpio. Its about as good as any source right . It says youll be no good to any if you work yourself into the ground. Lighten up. Life is supposed to be fun. What does that tell you . That sounds like good free advice. Maybe shes reading her horoscope as well and save money not hireing all these new advisor advisors. Were getting very very close to beginning launch of a president ial campaign. The exact day is not known yet only known by a couple people. The majority of the people in her office dont know. But they were told to be ready at any point from this point forward. Perhaps later this week and next week. What were really finding out how this campaign is going to be different. She is going to put aside the big rallies, put aside the big crowds and really try and go oneonone with voters in iowa and New Hampshire aggressively. Top aides tell me she plans to try and have conversations with them and try to reintroduce herself to voters. The big question is how much she can reintroduce herself when the whole republican field almost 12 candidates will be out there trying to define her and attack her on these things. They say shes going to ignore them for the most part. Going to campaign aggressively. One person we wont see out on the road initially is bill clinton. He will be adviseing her behind the scenes but wont start this announcement with her and on the road initially. He will be raiseing money, of course. Some of her top advisors have been visiting iowa and New Hampshire to see what voters want. One thing they are told a campaign that is more fun, that looks more like the Obama Campaign from 07 or Clinton Campaign. Not im in it to win it. Its much more about you the voter. Starting any day here perhaps this week or next week maybe the horoscope will provide more information when she announces. Good segway. We looked at your horoscope, gemini. Take the initiative in group and social activityies the next 24 hours, not only will you be immensely popular, that was a force but you will also meet people who transform your outlook on life. What you dream about today you will be doing tomorrow. Wow. That sounds great. You get this date about when she runs theres your exclusive. Its in the stars, my brother, its in the stars. Great.

This is about Business Owners that dont want to have to choose between their christian faith, their sincerely held religious faith and being able to operate their businesses. That was governor bobby jindal weighing in on the religious debate. Now rethinking their states religious freedom laws. How will it play out in 2016 . Lets discuss. We have the Campaign Correspondent for the New York Times and mr. Lewis for the new york news. Good panel. Theres really two schools. One is wow, this was a close 1 for lbgt. These laws would have really discriminated against them. The other is this was some victory for pc because you put the religious people on the corner and totally misrepresented what this law is. A little bit of both. Mike pence of indiana two weeks ago did not do a good job explaining what the intention was. There were obvious concerns expected concerns from the gay and Lesbian Community there would be issues and come up before in other places. I think it could have been handled better at the outset and you would have had allowances for both sides. Does this propose a pickle for the 2016 gop president ial hopefuls that they all virtually supported this legislation and now being reworked . Absolutely. It puts them on the opposite side of warmest, aplmart, apple customer. The chamber of commerce of indiana. If you wanted to create a wedge issue, something that splits the republican party, this is an almost ideal way to do it. For them to play into it they have to decide whether they want to write off a lot of business support, write off a lot of youth support. If theyre ready to do that and still try to run for president. Good luck with that. You might get the nomination but wont have to get much more. Or prove what you guys are laying out, the basis of misunderstanding. What is that . Obviously the covered the heck out of it last week. For me this is not about the federal law, indiana, arkansas georgia, these are not the federal law by motivation intentionality or in construction of the actual statute. The way it got talked about, evacuates s advocates will do what theyre going to do. Its not like theres some gigantic action of people who want to rush out and commit bigotry in indiana or anywhere else. Thats not what this is about. The way the advocates portrayed it somewhat inaccurate maybe unfair. On the other hand there was sort of a gap there. There was no federal statute or no local version of a federal statute. It was unclear what rights you would have if theres a discrimination problem, who handles it how does it get handled . It needed sensitive treatment. The local legislature, of course did not do that. Thats the problem they created for themselves. A lot of people were talking about it this weekend on the sunday shows and Rick Santorum potential president ial hopeful, he talked about you have to give businesses the right to refuse to serve some customers. He used and expletive in drawing an analogy, we want to warn people so listen to what he say says. Tolerance is a twoway street. If youre a if youre a printshop and you are a gay man, should you be forced to print god hates fags for the west Borough Baptist Church because they hold those signs up. Should you be forced to should the government should the Government Force you to do that. Maggie. That doesnt sound quite like what were talking about with most of those laws. He took a very extreme case to make the other side of the argument. Thats what all republicans are doing, many of the republican president ial hopeful hopefuls should you go against your own conscience and Comfort Level to serve someone . The National Polling in terms of gay rights and gay marriage has moved very far along but the republican partys base is not there. You have folks that are making bets that how to become the president ial nominee based on essentially being more conservative. One of the interesting things last week you saw jeb bush basically endorse the law pretty wholeheartedly on the conservative radio show and then went to a donor meeting in california and moderated his position. You want to limit those types of opportunities. There are two things here to button this up a little bit. I dont think we should have santorum own what he just said there. That is what west westboro Baptist Church but on their sign signs. I dont think he was trying to use an ugly word. Its about protective classes. Thats whats being lost in this. Lbgt is not a protective class under the federal law and theyre vulnerable in ways these other groups are not. West Borough Baptist Church may argue religion exception. Theyre a protected class. And why dont you go up to muslims for it . They too, cant i want to go to this you say theres this misunderstanding. Why else would you not have designed this law if not to head off gay marriage coming to indiana. Why do they need it . I think they wanted to cater to the religious part of the Republican Base in indiana and on their wish list for a handful of people why dont you do this why dont you give us that . The legislators made a gross miscalculation. There are rock conservative members of the chamber of commerce and indianapolis didnt want to see this and didnt want to bring this up. There is this question if you are doing business for the Public Public accommodation, all are welcome, ill take everyones business. You cant suddenly start discriminateing against protected class, the usual cast of character characters race religion. It doesnt include lgbt yet but clearly this is where the country is going. For indiana to decide well were not going to go there and were going to proactively say were not going there. It wasnt indiana it was the governor and politicians. I feel for the people there because it wasnt a referendum. Thank you. Thank you. All right, guys. They are in damage control mode over at Rolling Stone.

Rolling stone now says that its article about and alleges gang rape at the university of virginia is wrong. The retraction follows columbia Journalism School calling the piece a journalistic failure because they did not do their Due Diligence on this story. We have two correspondents who have both been following this story very closely. Lets talk about what the columbia journalism review found, were the mistakes made by Rolling Stone. Let me put them up on the screen. The friends version, the friends of the alleged victim. Their version did not support jackies aukt. Thats a problem. Number two, all Three Friends would have spoken to the reporter had they been contacted but they werent. Number three, the fraternity said records show there was no party the night of the party. And editors invested Rolling Stones reputation in a single source. This violates journalism 101 rules were taught. Better reporting would have led Rolling Stone to the right answer would have been to not publish the story focusing on this victim. There were a lot of other victim victims and a lot of other students who could have been focused on. Instead by picking out this extreme horrific example and not doing Due Diligence embarrassed itself and doing damage to the university. Thats what one of the friends told me the columbia journalist said hes really upset because not only does he feel deceived there was a lot in that story that was true that does need attention. Now that its been deleted essentially from the website. Taken off the website. Taken off the web, thats all gone and lost. The universitys historical response to Sexual Assault was essentially vanished from that report reporting. That was never disputed. The university of virginia admitted to that and made changes because of it . There are so many parts. We will look at the journalism aspect in a second. I want to talk about the concern is reporting sexual abuse and assault on campuses across the country. Do you get a sense from people youre talking to there will be a sense of reticence from young men and women coming forward and say saying i was the victim and now i dont want to come forward because nobody will believe me. Ive heard that from some victims and also heard victims say most rapes that happen on campus are between one man and one woman. A lot of times you know the person chol involved and not as brutal and horrific and shocking as this one does. If everyone begins to believe a rape on campus is only a rape if its a gang rape the way it was described in Rolling Stone, thats a huge problem for victims. Thats a chilling effects. Some students at uva said this story does force us to make changes and talk about it and have conversations and aware awareness. The question is at what cost . One of the interesting things is no one has been fired. I have mixed feelings about it and feel people are fired too quickly. Whats the defense of it not being intentional . Whats the words of the editor there . Its loyalty and we talked about this with Brian Williams fiasco and idea of second chances. I wonder how Brian Williams feels reading about this and the writer of the article will be invited back to write on Rolling Stones in the future. Rolling stone decided none of this was intentional. How is it an accident you dont followup on sources . Im a little bit baffled by it. It makes all journalists look bad. It hurts the whole profession. Kind of baffling were not seeing any disciplinary actions taken. On the other hand theyve done good work before and will do more good work in the future. Maybe there is something to said for second chances. As to what happened the other night at the fraternity you were able to find the friends, something Rolling Stone didnt go to the resistlength of doing. Did they believe her story . What do they say happened . They say that night she was so compelling and convinceing they believe something bad happened to her. Thy continued to believe that over time even when they stopped being friends with her. When Rolling Stone came out with the new account so much different, there was so much that was wrong, in their opinion, based on their recollection of what happened they began to doubt. If the reporter had called them and recounted, what jackie was say saying they say we would have raised the red flag and said thats not what i remember. In the colcolumn columbia journalism report if they had spoken to the friends, that was the crux of all this. And for all readers, when were covering a story as sensitive as this dealing with people who have been through trauma we have to be incredibly skeptical, even cynical at times. To be able to do both its very hard covering trauma and walking the line of being skeptical and human and empathetic is perhaps the greatest failure here. You. You know what day it is .

When you think about and reflect on the last 16 years when you walked away from baseball did you ever imagine you would come back to be involved in such an important way . No. Honestly i think ive been an ambassador ever since i left. The Lbgt Community was great educateing me about myself and our history and given the opportunity to try to be a strong role model for many in our community, especially young kids pursueing sports. I wanted to inspire that. The body of work away from baseball and i think they noticed that. Its been amazing to come full circle. Im really proud of baseball and a huge responsibility one im very excited about. You are the right man about it especially when you think about the evolution youve had and work youve done behind the scenes and now you can do it out front if you will. Since youre out front, lets look at this topic weve been watching the situation play out. We know the ncaa was very vocal and heard about that issue in indiana. How do you think they handled it . Its wonderful to see theyve come around and resolved the issue. Especially from a baseball perspective, our record is very clear no player or employee or fan will be discriminated against and our workplace code of conduct nobody is discriminated based on race religion origin or sexual orientation. We have three baseball teams in indiana. Person personally i didnt want any of those baseball people in our family to wake up and feel if theyre working for us or play playing for us or coming to watch games they would be excluded from that process. Lets talk about that reality. The fact is billy, you are the only former or current openly gay baseball player. Does that tell you how far we need to go still . Well it tells me that i have a lot of work to do. I think that as a former player trying to be someone whos relatable to the current players, and future players, i think thats where the job is most important, that i represent both communities in a way that we can bridge and start a conversation. Thats really what my job has been to introduce myself share a little bit about my career why i walked away. I felt isolated. I didnt feel i could reach out to baseball and baseballs really trying to send that message that we wanted our players to reach out for whatever their issue is. Its a big family. Its a huge sport. We have 30 Big League Team seven Minor League Teams underneath each of those organizations. I think that the message is very clear, one of acceptance and the exact Job Description i have is to create a culture of acceptance not really to try to change the way players think as much as offer them to make a consideration and what that responsibility of being a part of baseball is. It also requires work on the part of the fan, too. Any plan on outreach there, working with the fan base . We develop wantfinitely want to show strong images of acceptance in each club. Thats a Bigger Picture project. The logistics of getting to know all 30 clubs and them getting to know me to be an example they are comfortable with and Show Confidence in to educate the players. Its easy to assume players understand a workplace code of conduct and acceptance. Some of our players are extremely young and get to the big leagues quickly and Start Playing and focused on one thing their whole lives. I want to protect them and want them to understand what it means and how their life will change when they put on a big league uniform. I think the fans will be part of that process. Obviously, the message moves quickly if we have all players on board. I wonder if this had been around 16 years ago, if you might have stayed around a little longer billy bean you think . . Definitely. Thats what i try to keep in mind. Everyone doesnt get a chance to say thank you in person or if youre making a change in their life. It keep mess going. Billy bean what a title. Mlb ambassador for inclusion. I get behind that. Thanks for joining me so early in los angeles. We appreciate it. Thank you, mikaela. Opening day.
