announced candidate's past, charges of hypocrisy and where he fits into the growing field of contenders. we want to welcome our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm wolf blitzer. you're in "the situation room." two weeks after the death of osama bin laden we've learned u.s. navy s.e.a.l.s who stormed the compound and killed him had cameras on their helmets. while we've been showing you an animated version of what likely happened that night, u.s. officials now are studying actual digital recordings of the raid. our pentagon correspondent chris lawrence is here in "the situation room" to talk about this. what do we know about these recordings? >> the first thing, wolf, a military official is telling us that it's hazy. it's extremely dark. so don't go in there expecting to see movie quality here. but what it does do is it puts you in the shoes of the actual s.e.a.l.s as they were going through this assault. he says basically when you look at this video, it's basically going to be a training tool for the s.e.a.l.s to be able to go in and actually put themselves back in that moment and see what they did right and what they did wrong. any actual video of osama bin laden would have been very quick because again every time their head moves, the camera moves. he says the video is very shaky and hazy. >> we also are now learning that u.s. officials, authorities have had access to the wives, the surviving wives of bin laden. what do we know about that? >> troo, access, but not the kind they wanted. u.s. officials wanted to interview these three women separately so they could see if there were discrepancies in the stories. they got all three together with pakistani officials in the room. only one of the wives, the oldest spoke for all three. they say right now it was a hostile interview, the women were not forthcoming. overall, right now it looks like they don't know much, haven't got much from it. the pakistanis say they'll get a chance to talk to them again. we're also learning fascinating new details about the way bin laden communicate friday the compound in pakistan with supporters. >> without getting picked up, with no e-mail address. he would type out directives and dump it on a thumb drive and give to his courier. the courier would take it outside to a cut-out. the other man, the third party would be cut out of the loop. he didn't know he was getting something from bin laden. that man would download it, send out the e-mail. when they wanted information back, they would reverse the process all the way back. but, wolf, we're also hearing that because of this extensive support network and this ability to stay connected that osama bin laden may have gotten a little complacent. when you look at it, he stayed in that compound for five years. it looks like he had no escape plan when the s.e.a.l.s got there and no way to destroy all that material that he had when they were in there. and, of course, we now know there were only three adult men in the compound along with bin laden. >> must have gotten cocky after all those years. chris lawrence, thanks very much. while the raid yielded a trove of terror teefrl, it also may have inadvertently leaked some of america's top military technology. this is a very sensitive part of the story. cnn's brian todd is working this part of the story. what's going on. >> we're learning incredible new detail on the stealth helicopters used in the bin laden raid. there are new concerns that some of that technology may soon fall into the hands of the chinese if it hasn't already. in their haste to get out with the body of osama bin laden, navy s.e.a.l.s detonate their disabled helicoptersment one crucial part is left behind, largely intact. the tail rotor assembly left outside the compound's wall where it crashed. pakistani troops were seen hauling it away. now serious concerns that america's chief technological rival will learn key secrets from the wreckage. >> we ought to assume that the chinese are going to get this technology and get it all. >> reporter: former congressman pete hoef stra is certain the pakistanis will share the technology from that tail section with their chose allies, the chinese. >> they'll reverse engineer it, they'll have the latest technology at minimal cost. >> reporter: contacted by cnn, a seen yor pakistani official denied that china approached them for access to the wreckage and said they wouldn't make it available to the chinese. aviation experts say they've never seen this kind of stealth helicopter before. they believe it's a modified black hawk. >> this disk is key to making this such a unique stealth aircraft? >> this disk is unique, this helicopter. what you see is a device with two purposes. one, to reduce the noise from the rotor blades, but secondly, also, to reduce the possibility of it reflecting radar waves back to a missile attack that might be able to go after the helicopter. >> reporter: experts say the sound suppression technology makes distinguishable differences. first, what a standard black hawk helicopter sounds like. this has a rhythmic kind of whoosh-whoosh sound. now we'll show you what a stealth helicopter sounds like from an earlier test program. experts say this sounds a lot more vague. you may not be able to tell whether this is another vehicle entirely or a helicopter. you may not be able to tell whether the helicopter is moving towards you or moving away. >> experts say the small wings, called stabilizers are also unique to this chopper. they're usually at a hard right angle. these are angled off, analysts say, to avoid radar detection. the chinese have a huge interest in this technology. they're developing a stealth fighter jet called the j-20 which they've already test-flown. >> contacted by cnn, a chinese official in washington said he had no information on whether his government has tried to get access to the tail section of that helicopter. u.s. officials clearly worried about that at this point. >> you're also learning new details about when the navy s.e.a.l. helicopter crashed into the wall at the compound. >> that's right. a senior pakistani official says when the helicopter crash landed, local pakistani military units thought it was one of their own assets that crashed. they called all the local bases to see what happened. it wasn't until later they were able to confirm the presence of a foreign aircraft inside pakistan. by that time the s.e.a.l.s could have been long gone. >> thank you, brian. will so-called family values conservatives buy newt gingrich's explanation for his past affairs and divorces. how does the death of osama bin laden change the u.s. standing in the islamic world? i'll ask a journalist and author who has written extensively about the region. stay with us. you're in "the situation room." just days after newt gingrich announced his presidential campaign, he's taking a familiar next step, heading to iowa. he's scheduled to visit 17 towns and cities in that state, the state that holds the first presidential contest of 2012. he'll be taking a good deal of personal baggage with him. joe johns has been looking at gingrich's cnn medical correspondent elizabeth cohen versal private life. what are you coming up with? there's a lot of baggage that all of our viewers are familiar with. >> that's absolutely true, wolf. political insiders we've spoken to says the former speaker has plenty of obstacles in front of him in the run for the republican nomination. this is only one of them. the question here is whether with this complex marital history he can win the trust of conservatives and evangelical val utes, especially women who say family values matter a lot. newt gingrich's private life has been messy, on his third marriage, two divorces. he's also had affairs. he admits one of those affairs was going on right around the time he, as speaker of the house, was helping impeach then president bill clinton for lying about cheating on his wife with monica lewinsky. at the time gingrich and others accused clinton of trying to hide the truth. >> the most systematic deliberate obstruction of justice coverup in effort to avoid the truth we have ever seen in american history. >> reporter: now the former speaker wants clinton's old job and gingrich is seemingly an open book. he's confessed his cheating, endured a series of excruciating interviews about his private life and spent long hours talking to conservatives, especially in places like iowa about how and why he's a different man. he's talked about it on the christian broadcasting network. >> there's no question that at times in my life, partially driven by how passionately i felt about this country, that i worked far too hard and things happened in my life that were not appropriate. >> reporter: he even brags about how great this third marriage is with his current wife clal liss that who has been married tore for about a decade. he became a catholic for her. conservatives like rich chand land of the southern baptist convention says the skeletons in his closet have not been cleared out. >> there is an i'm plaquable law of opposition among evangelical women. a large percentage of the men are willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and say, okay, he's changed. we believe in forgiveness and redemption. the women say, well, we may forgive him, we believe in redemption, but we don't trust him. >> reporter: rich gayland said a big challenge would come in places like south carolina, where committed evangelicals and other social conservatives have seen plenty of political scandal and don't like it a bit. >> if he wins or loses an important state like, let's say, south carolina but a very little bit, then i think you can say, well, if it hadn't been for that, he would have won. >> reporter: land says gingrich needs to give a speech early on to put the issue to rest. >> he's got to imagine that the person he's talking to is an evangelical woman who is sitting across from him, and he's going to have to convince her he's truly sorry. >> reporter: tough hill to climb for a former speaker of the house with a messy record in marriage. rich galen doesn't think the candidacy will rise or fall on his personal life, but it could be a factor, and some of the other factors include his management style and the question of whether he can actually stay on message. so there's a lot out there. >> a big problem for him. joe, stand by. gloria borger, our senior political analyst is here as well. how does he do that, over come not only the personal stuff but some would argue the gaffs, if you will? he speaks a lot. some of the stuff he says is very intelligent, some not so much. >> everybody you talk to about newt gingrich say he's undisciplined. the problem with gingrich is he has an awful lot of ideas, and some of them are even good, right? but he tends to talk about all of them. i spoke with somebody who used to work with him who said, you know, his problem is that he surrounds himself with people who let him say whatever he wants to say. he needs people around him who can say, you know, newt, you shouldn't talk about that or that, here is the message of our campaign and you need to stick with it. there's a real concern that he just won't be able to do that. >> he also gets bored a little bit, some people say. he gets bored with saying the same thing over and over again, the typical stump speech. he wants to fancy it up a little bit or try something out, and if you try something out that doesn't work, it's a headline a lot of times. >> the videotape that's not going to go away any time soon. let's talk about ron paul. he made his big announcement on friday as well. is he in this to win it or get his message out there more forcefully? >> every candidate will tell you they're in it to win it as hillary clinton once famously said. i think with ron paul, he's got a lot more traction this time around than he did last time around. he's somebody conservatives are interested in, very align washington, d.c. the tea party. in the end i think ron paul's ideas are too radical for the republican party which is he doesn't think we should have gone after osama bin laden, he doesn't think we should have social security. put those two things together, it's not exactly a winning platform. >> it's a completely different playing field right now for ron paul. four years ago there were all these supporters of him saying there's a media blackout, nobody is putting ron paul on, knob is talking about him. now the air waves are saturated with ron paul and people know exactly what he stands for. it's a completely different test for him. >> mitt romney, the former massachusetts governor who some think is the front-runner right now, he has to deal with the specific issue involving health care. >> health care, and it is the fact that so-called obama-care was in many ways based on the kind of health care reform that mitt romney passed in massachusetts when he was governor. and most specifically, the part of that health care reform was the mandate which said that everybody in the state has to buy health care insurance, and that's the big problem republicans have with obama's health care reform. so it is a very, very big heavyweight around his neck. >> we were talking about newt gingrich's negatives. romney has a few, too when you think about it. not one of these will kill him, but they'll affect him. there may be a few people concerned about the fact he's a mormon, there may be people concerned about the issue of flip-flopping which he's been accused of. you put that together with health care, he has to over come those challenges, too. >> we know he can raise money. we know he's got a great team surrounding him. don't underestimate the fact that he's been through it once before which always gives you a leg up and also republicans are very hierarchical. they tend to nominate the candidate next in line. lots of folks think romney is next in line. >> the interesting thing about mitt romney is he's not saying he made a mistake in massachusetts when he passed what they call romney-care. he's defending it saying it's different than what president obama passed federally. >> he absolutely can't, because if he does go back on it, suddenly he's going to be accused of being a flip-flopper. he has to stay with the program and distinguish himself from president obama and hope that people get the distinction. a lot of people say that whenever you're explaining in politics, you're losing. >> if newt gingrich's problem is discipline, mitt romney's problem is authenticity. that's why he had to stake with health care reform. but in the end, they all know it's not going to be a plus on his resume for republicans. >> i loved your column at cnn.com this week about newt gingrich and some of the other candidates, the new way of how they announce their candidacy for president by tweeting. >> i'm not in favor of that, could you tell? i think we need speeches and talk about issues and not just say "read my tweet." >> cat's out of the bag. >> thanks guys. young people being taught bin laden's message of terror. a rare look inside one islamic school in afghanistan. pakistan's army uncomfortably the spotlight in the wake of bin laden's death. why there's growing embarrassment in the town where he was living.

>> it is the incompetency and the sheer negligence is lying on the part of the army, right? if it is true, the pakistan army must have protected its boundary and the operation made by americans itself, it is against the interest of the pakistani nation. >> reporter: this saying osama town, painted over, as is this, bin laden's name. over what they knew and how ready they were when the helicopters flying over abbottabad weren't pakistani, but american. nick paton walsh. the death of bin laden, amidst the turmoil sweeping the region. let's talk with jeffrey goldberg, the national correspondent for "the atlantic" author of "prisoners: a story of friendship and terror." he's reported extensively from the region. how does the bin laden death affect what we've been calling this arab awakening or this arab spring, the whole political turmoil moving over these last several months? >> i'll give you the optimistic view. first, it's a great thing. just as arabs in egypt, tunisia and elsewhere were revolting peacefully against their leadership, you have the death of osama bin laden who argued all the while that only violence would achieve the ends that these people wanted. so you have a kind of one-two punch against al qaeda. on the one hand, arabs are very volting peacefully, not like what he wanted and he's gone. in places like pakistan and beyond, in the greater middle east, you have more resentment of america in some radical quarters. you have a situation, and we always forget this when we talk about al qaeda. you have the situation where you have people who are self-radicalizing, who are attached to bin laden's ideas but not his organization. >> inspired by it. >> inspired by it. the next time there's a terror attack, i'm afraid some people are going to be surprised and they shouldn't be. >> i assume you would agree with me that the president's credibility throughout the region has been enhanced as a result of the death of bin laden? >> there's nothing like a strong act of leadership to enhance your status. and let's remember and be very careful about this. most arabs hate bin laden. most muslims hate bin laden. so, yes, he has this opportunity and he's going to speak to the arab world next week, he's giving an address. and he's going to talk about his vision of a nonviolent future and a democratic future. he's trying to play off this and trying to capitalize on it. >> it will be interesting to see what the president says new in this coming speech in the middle east that he didn't say the last time he gave a major speech on the middle east. but if you're moammar gadhafi right now in libya and you see how decisive president obama was in going after bin laden and killing him, you've got to be really nervous about your own well-being. >> you've got to be nervous. gadhafi is a survivor. he's proven he can hang in there. >> bin laden was a survivor, too. >> but unlike the bin laden case. when we went into libya, we went with ill defined goals. president bush and president obama were seeking to kill osama bin laden. it was a clean, understandable mission. in libya it's still a little murky. the president at some point is going to have to go to congress and ask for more money for this operation. it's not a very popular operation. i think gadhafi thinks -- he's somewhat of a delusional figure. but he might thit he can out last obama's interest in there. >> even robert gates says the u.s. has already spent $750 million for the tomahawk cruise missiles, the other expenses related to libya and god, that's a lot of money. >> the problem for the president is if we go into an election season, i'd hate to bring it down to electoral politics, if we move into that direction and gadhafi is still in place, it doesn't look for the white house or france or britain either, that this one semi looney dictator in a north african desert country can withstand the pressure of all of nato. >> arguably the u.s. interest and what's happening in syria is much greater than what's happening in libya. >> libya is easy in the sense that there are no huge national security concerns or national security ramifications to this. in syria, there are an enormous number of ramifications, including the fact that some of america's allies in the region are not so happy about see bashar assad fall. osama bin laden is not happy about it. israel is ambivalent about it. i think they're moving closer to saying that this guy is not a viable leader for syria anymore. >> although i do sense with official statements and unofficial statements i've been hearing from israeli leaders, they're looking at get ride of bashar assad, so aligned with hamas and iran, no matter what happens after him, probably would be better for israel. >> there's a huge argument going on, as there is in washington about what comes after this guy. when i was interviewing hillary clinton i asked would you be sad to see him disappear? she said it depends on what comes next. i think this is still the worry. there's a growing recognition that this guy is no good for manifold reasons. a rare look inside a closed world. a strict islamic school poisoning young minds against the united states. terror plots revealed including one targeting the brooklyn bridge. h-ah ♪ that's right. it runs flash. so unlike some tablets we could mention, you get the best of the internet - not just part of it. ♪ flash, aah-ah ♪ flash, aah-ah host: could switching to geico or more on car insurance?

no, they say. should they lead aftve afghanis? yes, they say, we want our country to be peaceful. they are the devil. >> the americans are making the taliban and afghans fight each other, he says, and then think watch. when they see us fighting, americans are happy. it's a message they get straight from their teacher, the imam himself. >> translator: god says we can never be friends with unbelievers, what do they know about our region? we can never be friends. >> reporter: it's a chilling reminder that despite ten years in this country and hundreds of troops killed battling militants, the u.s. has failed to win the hearts and minds of so many. in fact, young hearts are hardened here, raised on anti-western propaganda. here the words of slain al qaeda leader osama bin laden live on. we can never be friends. americans are doing suicide attacks and blame osama bin laden, he says. for these boys this is the only world they know. for many of them, it may be the only world they will ever know. they're not learning about math and science here. they're not learning about the world. they're learning only about one thing, god, islam. >> translator: a child is like a tree. it will give fruit. when children come to see me, i train them the right way. >> reporter: that way is the way of strict sharia law. girls are banned from the school. they tell me women should be behind doors at home. to go outside without avail, they say, is filthy. they would fight for islam. indeed authorities fear they were being trained to do just that. earlier this year, weapons, explosive devices, even suicide bomber jackets were uncovered. the previous imam is now in prison, linked to a pakistani taliban network. the mosque is under constant scrutiny, even as the new imam denies any claims the boys were being taught to fight. this man stands behind the old imam as well. to them it's an american conspiracy. what they say sounds fanciful. what matters is they believe it. they kid familiar mullahs and take them far away. i have seen americans on television putting needles into the chest of people and coming out the other side. that's what they're doing to mullahs. like children the world over, these boys like to play with toy guns. war here is no game. the enemy is the united states, and they believe god is on their side. stan grant, cnn, kabul. >> amazing developments going on over there. ten years into the u.s. military operation in afghanistan, thousands of lives lost. nearly a trillion dollars spent. that's what's going on right now. we're watching the story. we're also learning some chilling new details about alleged terror plots that never came to fruition. our pentagon correspondent chris lawrence is back with new details on this part of the story. what are you finding out here? >> wolf, the wikileaks documents are revealing to us that in all the years that osama bin laden was sort of on the run, al qaeda never stopped planning attacks, and some of them came very, very close to succeeding. secret documents released by wikileaks show good help was hard to find, even for al qaeda. 9/11 mastermind khalid sheikh mohammed told the shoe bomber to shave his beard and detonate the bomb in the bathroom. he didn't shave and tried to light the bomb in his seat. the mission failed and mohammed called reid irresponsible. >> anything about this look threatening? women and kid's clothes? they were a key to a plot in 2003. this man told khalid sheikh mohammed in with legitimate children eels clothes because american port authorities won't open those shipping containers. homeland security says the revelation led to beefed up american security. >> i'm glad american people are learning more about these. >> reporter: like this man who planned to marry four women and have 48 kids to build his own jihad army. >> as ridiculous as this sounds, you realize you have to step back and you need experts to explain is this possible. >> reporter: al qaeda planned to use special blow torches to cut the cables ton brooklyn bridge and might have succeed fd they got into the security room where those cables are anchored. >> if you got into that room, you would be able to, in my judgment, cut those cables and not be seen by the public, not be seen by traffic passing on the bridge. so, yeah, it would have been feasible to do it and still potentially feedsable. >> reporter: but they abandoned the plan because the weather was too hot, meaning too much security. in the middle of 2002 the intel community got a tip there could be a plot on the bridge from the godzilla movie which they interpreted to be the brooklyn bridge. >> that's when we devoted police resources to the bridge. >> reporter: the nypd put scuba drivers and patrol boats in the river and put police cars on the bridget self. >> a lot of observations and alarmless on the bridge, cameras focused on the bridge, police officers are still there. the theory of cutting the cables is still a valid one. >> reporter: al qaeda's inspiration could come from a simple conversation. documents show how talk of what jet fuel did to the twin towers sparked another plot to blow up gas stations. they were actively recruiting two or three african-american muslim converts who would break into the huge fuel tanks underneath the pumps and plant an explosive inside. >> in those debrief fings we were hearing that had become a goal and objective to recruit non-arab males to make sure they could get past any sort of screening protocols we may have. >> plan after plan. these wikileaks, the documents from that, also reveal that in its zeal to stop the attacks, the u.s. government sent plenty of innocent man to guantanamo, like a 70-year-old senile man from afghanistan. they found out when they looked at him, he was diagnosed with ghens yeah, had absolutely no contact with terrorists whatsoever. they couldn't explain a reason why he had been sent to guantanamo bay. >> thanks very much. rape victims blasting the u.s. peace corps on capitol hill. they say the organization made their plight even worse. ♪ hey, dad, think i could drive?

fairfax county, virginia, is the ideal business location. and the ideal life location. the peace corps is known for exporting american altruism and volunteerism around the world on projects. but on capitol hill rape victims portrayed a very different peace corps. cnn's congressional correspondent kate bolduan is joining us from capitol hill right now. this is a shocking story. >> reporter: shocking and disturbing story, wolf. you said it. the peace corps is all about promoting just that, peace and friendship around the world. but in a congressional hearing, this organization was painted as more concerned about its own reputation than its own volunteers. kirsten conan was working in niger in 1991 when her nightmare unfolded. >> at some point my sister left to get something at the store and after she left he raped me. and when he left he said he was going to -- he was going to go back and bring his friends. >> reporter: but conan says her experience after that, seeking help from the peace corps, was worse than the assault itself. >> i trusted the peace corps. i believed in the peace corps. i believed they would take care of me. and they didn't. >> reporter: conan isn't alone. between 2000 and 2009, more than 1,000 volunteers reported sexual assault in countries around the world. >> men dragged me into an abandoned courtyard and the violence began. they started by raping me and forced other objects inside of my body. >> for the next 15 hours he raped and beat me. for a long time i prayed to live, and after that i prayed to die. >> these women all say the peace corps blamed them, the victims for the attacks. that's why they came to capitol hill, demanding change in how the agency protects volunteers and handles complaints of serious crimes, including murder, which happened to 24-year-old kate pusey. >> in the future there will be another volunteer like my kate who won't do the right thing. honor kate's sacrifice by doing the right thing now so that future volunteers can serve safely. >> i have never been so incensed and so enraged at an agency. >> lawmakers outraged by the testimony had tough questions for the director of the peace corps, who apologized and promised he's already making changes. >> there's no need for one of our volunteers to feel unsafe in a situation. we have to listen to the volunteers. >> and so can you tell us what changes have been made? because we heard from our panel this morning that when they expressed their concerns to their superiors they were ignored. >> well, i think first of all, that we have established a policy of listening to volunteers. >> reporter: listening to women like keers tin conan who say they'll be quiet no more. do you have any confidence that the peace corps will make these changes after so long? >> i have confidence in congress to pass legislation that will mandate these changes in the peace corps. i don't have confidence the peace corps is willing or able to make the changes on their own. >> reporter: now it may surprise you, but the women testifying say they still support the peace corps and its mission, wolf. the director of the peace corps said in that hearing that some of the changes that they're already putting into place are more training for staff on this exact issue and also more support for victims. >> what a story. kate, thanks very much for bringing it to us. suiting up for the cannes film festival, that and much more coming up in hot shots. buildings network all across america. we're adding new cell sites... increasing network capacity, and investing billions of dollars to improve your wireless network experience. from a single phone call to the most advanced data download, we're covering more people in more places than ever before in an effort to give you the best network possible. at&t. rethink possible. but when she got asthma, all i could do was worry ! specialists, lots of doctors, lots of advice... and my hands were full. i couldn't sort through it all. with unitedhealthcare, it's different. we have access to great specialists, and our pediatrician gets all the information. everyone works as a team. and i only need to talk to one person about her care. we're more than 78,000 people looking out for 70 million americans. that's health in numbers. unitedhealthcare. that weight watchers online was for guys, too. i'm like, it's not rainbows and lollipops. after i read this beer cheat sheet, i knew what the difference was between a light beer and a dark beer as far as points go. i use the grilling cheat sheet -- you drag it over onto the grill and it gives you a point value. this is a plan for men. i lost 109 pounds.
