christians taken hostage. part of a group of more than 200 people that isis captured when they swept a syrian village just a few days ago. but a syrian opposition group says some sort of authority figure has ordered 29 of those people to be released. why and is it really going to happen? also overseas one of president opinion opinion's loudest critics shot dead last night on a sidewalk just yards from the kremlin. boris nemtsov was walking home with a female friend after dinner and shot in the back four times. now press putin vowing to find and punish the killer. coming up why russian authorities are not ruling out isis involvement in this murder. any moment we will learn who conservatives think should win the white house in 2016. you're looking at live pictures there of cpac that gathering there in maryland. we're going to bring you the straw poll results in just a moment. it was a stung blow against hamas today from the government of egypt from a specific court there in cairo declaring hamas officially a terrorist organization. this is a label the united states and europe has already put on hamas. hamas leaders, though, shocked apparently by the ruling. our ian lee joins me on the phone live from cairo. ian, set this up for us in terms of the significance of this to hamas and frankly why hamas leaders seem so surprised at the court's ruling. >> reporter: well poppy, this is a very damning verdict by the courts of urgent matters here in cairo. but we're still trying to figure out what this exactly means. because there is a new law terrorism law, that was recently passed saying this court does not have jurisdiction that that jurisdiction lies with the general prosecutor as well with the appeals court. but what hamas is being accused of is quite severe. they're being accused of supporting snujtinsurgents in the sigh my peninsula who have killed hundreds of security personnel and of a 2011 jail break that freed members of the muslim brotherhood revolution. the muslim brother hood in egypt is considered a terrorist organization. hamas belongs to the muslim brotherhood. hamas has condemned this verdict. this does create a new chapter in relations between hamas and egypt which has started to deteriorate since the 2013 uprising that overthrew mohamed morsi who came from the muslim brotherhood, poppy. >> could you talk to us about the concern you raised in the earlier hour this could backfire on egypt? >> reporter: well the thing that egypt has always done is it's always been a broker for the region between hamas and israel and also interpalestinian politics. so this could be very damaging for egypt because they won't be seen as this independent or impartial broker for any potential upcoming wars. the last three wars between hamas and israel they have brokered the peace deal. so it is very unlikely that hamas is going to want to listen or to work with the egyptians now if there is another war. and so for egypt, this is a lowering of their stature, if you will when it comes to these sorts of talks. but for egypt they see this as a national security issue. hamas, they believe, has been undermining egypt's abilitystability. for them they believe this it the only way forward. >> ian lee from cairo, thank you for that. as we mentioned, isis may be ready to release 29 asyrian christians taken hostage in recent days. they are part of a much larger group of more than 200 christian captives including women, children and the elderly. information about that pending release comes from a syrian opposition group this. all really adds up to a very troubling picture of isis spreading really like a cancer across the region. jordan's king abdullah told our faried zakari this is a third world war. >> should the west be in the lead? >> this has to be unified. i've said this to leaders both in the islamic and arab world and to the world in general. this is a third world war by other means. this brings muslims, christians other religions together in this generational fight that all of us have to be this together. so it's not a western fight. this is a fight inside of islam where everybody comes together against these outlaws, so to speak, together. and there's a short-term part of this which is the military part of the issue. there is the medium part which is the security element of it. then there's a long-term element of this which is obviously the ideological one. >> a fascinating interview there between our faried zakaria and kipg be a dull king abdul lastbe aabdullah. police are scouring the streets of moscow trying to figure out who killed one of russian president vladimir putin's most outspoken critics and why. our fred pleitgen has the latest from moscow. >> reporter: thousands of people have been coming here to the scene of the crime throughout the entire day, many laying candles down, lighting candles, many with tears in their eyes. you can tell moscow is shocked by the events that happen here late on friday night. one of the things that really shocks me the most is the fact that we are here in the heart of moscow. also this is a place near the kremlin, near the red square as well where there is a lot of surveillance. there's a lot of surveillance cameras here. plain-clothesed police officers. nonetheless right here in the middle of the sidewalk on this main bridge that leads away from the kremlin across the moscow river, is the place where boris nemtsov was gunned down. however, the fact that there are so many surveillance measures in place here seems to be one thing that's helping the authorities here to try to pinpoint who might be behind all of this. the authorities late on saturday announced they had managed to find a car, a white vehicle that they believe might have been involved in all of this. they said they found this vehicle through some of the surveillance footage that they got at various points. of course a lot of that surveillance footage would be around this area. the other main thing that the authorities say they're looking at is also witness testimony. one of their main witnesses is a woman named a anna duretskaya a model apparently with boris nemtsov as he was walking across this bridge. we were able to speak to a friend of nemtsov who says he was able to talk to her briefly before she was taken in by the police for questioning. she told him she was walking along here with boris nemtsov when all of a sudden a vehicle stopped. someone immediately opened fire from that vehicle. and then the vehicle sped away very quickly. one of the things very significant about that is that all the bullets that were apparently fired from that car hit nemtsov. none of them hit her. that's one of the things that causes the authorities here to say that they believe it was a professionally organized killing that took place. nemtsov of course was supposed to be one of the people leading a rally here in the city of moscow on sunday. originally it was supposed to protest against russia's policies in ukraine, but now that rally after his death is going to turn into one of mourning for a man who died here on friday night. fred pleitgen cnn, moscow. >> fred, thank you for that. russian investigative committee is leading this criminal investigation. again it's in the early hours but it's exploring a number of possible motives. for example, did russia's enemies kill nemtsov to create political dischord or were perhaps there islamist extremists involved? russian yeah state media reporting nemtsov had received threats like this to his views on the "charlie hebdo" attack in europe. counting me counterterrorism analyst buck sexton. when you look at the number of scenarios the russian authorities are look at right now, one of them being that isis might be linked to this murder. do you think that is farfetched or do you think that is really a possibility? >> on its face it's preposterous from what we know right now. this was a very professional hit. it seems to be the kind of trade craft that you would expect from say an intelligence service. and the fact that nemtsov was shot outside the kremlin i think also indicates these individuals knew the routes and times of their target. they shot with a tight grouping. they did not hit any bystanders. this was not meant as a spectacle in the sense you would have expected from say a jihadist. this was just a cold hard execution and really indicates intelligence service or someone trained by intelligence services or special forces. the when you look at the motives and some of the recent history here with for example this target saying he expects putin is going to kill him, i think people are starting to draw their own conclusions. >> and we don't want to draw conclusions. again this is early going. this i nemtsov as someone recently critical of the kremlin's handling of the ukraine crisis someone who issued a massive report in 2013 about bribery and fraud ahead of the olympics in sochi. this is someone who knew he had a target on his back and walked around without protection without bodyguards. at the same time putin coming out today and saying this is horrendous and we're going to hunt down the killer. what do you make of that? >> this is what we woeks would expect. of course putin is going to say he's searching for the real killers. the truth here when you look at the motivations for taking out an opposition politician like this and look at russia's history particularly with putin at the helm of journalists mysteriously dying and no killers are ever found. opposition politicians dying or being imprisoned on flimsy charges. and there's never any justice for those who seem to find themselves on the wrong end of an assassin's bullet in russia. this is a long-standing issue. i have to say this kind of a brazen assassination of nemtsov, and it clearly is an assassination. we know that just a question of the perpetrators. this kind of brazen hit opens up russia into probably a whole new level. because this was so out in the open for people to see and so clearly only going to benefit the sort of russian nationalist that we're seeing on the scene now and who are pro taking eastern ukraine and who believe that what they're doing is somehow bettering russia. when you add motive you add recent history, you add the tactics used in this event, it's certainly not isis. and i think we all know that it's somebody from inside of russia. >> but this coming as president putin has sky high approval ratings at 86% among his own people. stay with me. you're going to join us later in the hour. we'll execute this more we'll discuss this next. we'll find out who hard core conservatives think should win the republican presidential nomination. >> so conservatives have voted and we're awaiting the results. we'll tell you who they like for president and why it matters after the break. i lost my sight in afghanistan but it doesn't hold me back. i go through periods where it's hard to sleep at night and stay awake during the day. non-24 is a circadian rhythm disorder that affects up to 70% of people who are totally blind. talk to your doctor about your symptoms and learn more by calling 844-844-2424. or visit my24info.com. my tempur-pedic made me fall in love with mornings again. i love how it conforms to my body. with tempur-pedic the whole bed is comfortable. it's the best thing we ever did for ourselves. it's helping to keep us young.

how are ya? good. aleve. proven better on pain. we now know who conservatives think should win the white house in 2016. voting at the conservative political action conference of cpac just wrapped up. several potential 2016 candidates along with thousands of activists elected official and party leaders have been waiting for the results of this annual straw poll. we bring in our cnn reporter there. so who won? >> reporter: i'll tell you who won, poppy, rand paul made his three-peat. this was expected. this is a very libertarian crowd, young crowd. you can hear them in the back behind me. very excited to get the results here. what was interesting, number two, scott walker. he had a very strong performance here a few years ago. he took number two. and he was at 7% last year. this year he had 21% of the straw poll. he lost to rand paul who had 25%. there you go. they just announced rand paul the winner. you can hear the excitement behind me poppy. people are very excited in the background here. >> i think, chris, it's really interesting we've seen this momentum behind scott walker recently. but when you look at the reality of how this plays out in predicting the next president, what's the history there? >> reporter: well it doesn't always have a history of predicting the next president. the poll is very good as a snapshot for where this particular conservative group is right now. this is a very conservative face very libertarian. you start to see who has momentum going into the election season. certainly scott walker has that momentum. he is up in the polls in iowa. and he's coming out of this looking very strong. rand paul held on. he needed to make sure that he held his crown for a third year in a row. he did that. and another thing to mention here poppy, jeb bush came in fifth place with 8%. that's not surprising. he came, in had a very strong showing. kind of walked into the lion's den here. and had a strong respectable showing. but this is not his crowd. this crowd is much more conservative much more libertarian. so not a surprise there, and certainly jeb bush has other advantages such as a donor class behind him, so just because he came in poorly here doesn't mean he doesn't have a shot. this is just a snapshot in time. i think it's important for people to remember that. >> of course appreciate the reporting live as it was announced there at cpac. thank you very much. coming up next we're going to continue on politics and talk about your nation's capitol. our nation's capitol. guess what? at the last minute they came up with a way to fund the department of homeland security but only for one week. what happens after that? we'll discuss next. . two arrests in new york one in florida, another in indiana. all people suspected of conspiring to fight for or to support isis. court documents released yesterday suggest this man captured in central indiana bought military equipment for terrorists and in one point intended to fly to syria to fight with isis. while he and others were stopped many more have slipped through the crack. this weinerek i went to minnesota to talk to the state attorney general to talk about this problem and what's being done to counter it. >> from the intelligence that you have at this point in time is isis targeting the somali community in minnesota? >> yes. >> no question. >> no question. >> how aggressively? >> they're recruiting westerners but they're recruiting here. >> approximately how many young people from minnesota have left to go fight with terrorists? >> well, over two dozen during the al shabab days. more now during the isis days. each one is a tragedy for their families for their community, for minnesota. so we're trying to turn it around. >> do you have a number? i mean are we talking 30 40 50? >> it's too many. and i'm reluctant to give you an exact number because the investigations are ongoing. but each person who travel ss or tries to travel is a tragedy. and it's a failure of all of us that we need to turn this around. >> one community activist told us that one day instead of leaving the u.s. to fight for al shabab or isis they're going to fight here. does that keep you up at night? >> everything keeps me up at night. but we have no indication. there's no intelligence to suggest that anybody's planning anything in minnesota. but obviously we're vigilant about that on a daily bay is. >> what we saw play out in the recent attacks in paris, and likely although it's early going in copenhagen is that there was no direct order, attack this place at this time, kill these people. the it was this propaganda-driven here's a mission you should carry out when you deem the time and target are correct. do you worry about that here? >> we're watching that kind of activity on a daily basis. there is no indication anybody is making such a plan of attack here. but we have some of the best fbi based here. >> why here? >> it started in 2007 2008 with al shabab from somalia recruiting young somalis. isis has now picked up on the success of al shabab and trying to improve upon it. it's not what we in minnesota want to be known for. but we have to tackle this and break the cycle of recruiting. >> if you were to boil down the solution how you're attacking this how would you describe it? >> the way the community described it to me. they wanted more community engagement by law enforcement. they want to get to know us and learn who we are better. that's point one. point two is address the root causes through more mentoring, through more job opportunities, after-school programs in-school programs. that's point two. point three is early intervention teams that grow out of the community with the imams and the parents and the youth leaders working together at the early signs of radicalization. those are the three pillars of our plan. >> but is it happening right now? because isis is recruiting from here right now. >> we're already working on this. the community is already working on this. the pilot program is to take it to the next level. >> do you have the money to do it? >> we have some money coming in right now. we have corporate and nonprofit support here in minnesota. and i was just in a meeting at the justice department to talk about grant funds that we're expecting in the near future. >> do you think you're going have enough money? this is something we hear often from government agencies whether talking about the s.e.c. or you guys we don't have the funds. we don't have the staff to combat the criminals. >> we're going to have the fund we're going have the staff. most importantly we're going to have the community's leadership. >> some from this community in minnesota call this a terrorist hot bed in the united states. is that fair? >> i don't use terms like that. we're the focus of terror recruiting overseas. we're doing everything we can to turn it around. i don't use inflammatory terms. we have a problem. we're addressing it. that's what minnesotans do and we do it very well. >> i would agree with you on that one. thank you. >> thank you. all right. you can watch our full story and the immense efforts to tackle isis recruiting in minnesota. our story airs on cnn tonight monday evening 10:00 p.m. eastern, 7:00 pacific right here on cnn. coming up next just into cnn, new surveillance video that may show the murder scene of a significant russian opposition leader on the streets of moscow last night. see what you think. that's next. but before that, this week's ones to watch. >> jennifer lopez's choreographer is pulled from behind the scenes to perform with her center stage. so what is it that makes him so irresistible to the stars? >> he's the best dancer in the world, okay? i think the thing that makes chris and people like beyonce' and jay low and michael jackson is the fire. >> the spins, the hips the thrust. he studied michael jackson's every move and performed his routines at talent contests across the state. the king of pop had a magic he was desperate to understand. >> the way he performed, the way he transformed when he got on the stage, the way he owned the stage was amazing to me. and he really made me feel how he was feeling. it's one thing to learn something and to move and do all the stuff. but for you to really embody it and feel it and have the emotion, you know it's tough. i was taught to always rehearse rehearse rehearse rehearse until it just becomes you. where you don't have to think. introducing data stash. now at t-mobile, all your unused data rolls forward for 12 months. and if you switch today, we'll even give you 10 gigabytes of free 4g lte data. data stash. only from t-mobile. ♪ music ♪ ...the getaway vehicle! for all the confidence you need. td ameritrade. you got this. now?

>> there's one difference here based upon what we heard from the earlier reports is that it seems that there may have been a getaway car that came and picked up the assassin as opposed to what would have been really a drive-by shooting. so you're talking about a difference in perhaps tactics based upon this new video and what the russian government or russian government-owned tv station is saying here. but it doesn't change any of the other factors, the fact that there was supposed to be an opposition rally mere days after this that nemtsov was going to play a very prominent role in that was going to criticize openly russia's policies in ukraine. everything else more or less stays the same. in terms of the difference in tactics here it all still points towards a high level of proficiency, a high level of training and trade craft. that does not suggest some terrorist or some sort of a lone wolf one off situation. >> right. which we know is one of the theories the investigators are looking at right now. you think it's ludicrous. >> so far right. >> but let me ask you this. this is something, boris nemtsov, who was pushed out of government in 2003 continued to be very vocal about his opposition was vocal about his opposition of russia's ukraine strategy and policy. published this damning report in 2013 about basically fraud within the government bribery, et cetera. so if he was targeted for his political beliefs and work why now? >> well as i said there was a rally that's supposed to happen in just a few days in which nemtsov was supposed to play a rather large -- >> that's not the first of these kind of rallies. >> i understand that. but there's also been a pretty strong consolidation that putin's been engaged in for some time. and why now? i think that he may have finally just reached a point where both putin or whoever may have been behind this -- i don't want to suggest that we know. we don't know. but whoever may have been behind this inside of russia it certainly points towards some kind of official involvement of some kind whether it's from the top of the government or from somewhere else. but if that had been the case i think eventually they decided nemtsov was too much of a liability. they were able to get alexi alexi novali jailed and missing this rally. it seems they decided to act and this has the hallmarks of a contract hit. >> with the caveat we have no idea whether the putin government was involved in any way in this he's clearly coming out and saying we did not and we are going to find and hunt down whoever did this. this comes at a time when putin's approval rating is through the roof 86%. >> certainly the thuggishness of the putin government has been on display for some time in ukraine and interior inside of russia there's been as i said a pretty strong consolidation. and for a variety of reasons he does have popular support despite the sanctions and the economic pain that that country's been under because of its ukraine policy specifically. there is a rise in really a russian ultranationalism right now. so putin also because of the polls and because of the support he's been able to build up through these very aggressive policies outside of russian borders, he may have felt he was in a position to do this possibly conceivably or somebody in the government may have felt they were in a position to order this kind of a hit now. but again, this is very early on in the investigation. we'll certainly get more facts. the russians may produce in mere hours someone. the question is will it just be a scapegoat or some kind of a patsy but we'll see. >> i do wonder very quickly, do you think we will ever really know who carried this out? >> there's unfortunately a history of people being killed in russia whether it's investigative journalists or opposition politicians or anyone who essentially gets in the way of the state being killed and the killers are never found. so this would not be an anomaly if we actually had nobody who was arrested for this. certainly if it didn't ever go beyond one person who we're told is the killer but there's not very much evidence that it goes beyond that. >> buck, thank you. appreciate the insight. and that video we're seeing just for the first time here of what may be the murder scene. thank you very much. we appreciate it. coming up it is the subject of scientific obsession and religious devotion. the shroud of turin may be christianity's holiest relic. we will see the hidden clues found in what some believe is the burial cloth of jesus. across america, people are taking charge of their type 2 diabetes... ...with non-insulin victoza. for a while, i took a pill to lower my blood sugar but it didn't get me to my goal. so i asked my doctor about victoza. he said victoza works differently than pills and comes in a pen. victoza is proven to lower blood sugar and a1c. it's taken once a day, any time. and the needle is thin. victoza is not for weight loss but it may help you lose some weight. victoza is an injectable prescription medicine that may improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. it is not recommended as the first medication to treat diabetes and should not be used in people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. victoza has not been studied with mealtime insulin. victoza is not insulin. do not take victoza if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to victoza or any of its ingredients. symptoms of a serious allergic reaction may include swelling of face lips, tongue or throat fainting or dizziness, very rapid heartbeat problems breathing or swallowing, severe rash or itching. tell your doctor if you get a lump or swelling in your neck. serious side effects may happen in people who take victoza including inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) which may be fatal. stop taking victoza and call your doctor right away if you have signs of pancreatitis, such as severe pain that will not go away in your abdomen or from your abdomen to your back with or without vomiting. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take and if you have any medical conditions. taking victoza with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. the most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, and headache. some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may cause kidney problems. if your pill isn't giving you the control you need... ask your doctor about non-insulin victoza. it's covered by most health plans. one of the greatest mysteries woven through the christian faith and now a new cnn series takes an in-depth look at the scientific findings. watch. >> an unprecedented cnn event. he didn't vanish without leaving a trace. >> at this point in history we're able to place these. >> and changed the world. >> this is really the moment of truth. >> this is the story of jesus. >> the rock upon which the church is built. >> an icon of scientific obsession. >> this extraordinary to find an archeological piece. >> what do we really have here? >> why did judas betray jesus? >> somebody chose to write this. >> it dutdoes matter. is this time burial shroud of jesus? >> what are the clues he left behind?" faith, fact forgery" finding jesus. >> how could you not watch that? i promise it is fascinating. this week's episode, the shroud of turin. this is a mystery that has eluded both christians and nonchristians all over the world. what did jesus look like? and does this burial cloth reveal his very face? let's talk it with david gibson and michael mckinley, creators of the series. thank you, gentlemen, for being here. it is absolutely fascinating as i said. david, let me begin with you. as you take it without giving away too much about the premiere episode, do you believe that we come to an answer at the end of this first episode over whether or not the shroud of turin is in fact the real thing or a forgery? >> i think we get closer to an answer than anybody has gotten before. that's not to say that we're going to get final resolution. and that's part of the mystery and the beauty and the allure of the shroud of turin. as scientific technology has grown and we've made so many breakthroughs, science hasn't been able to explain this image, how it got on there, how old it is and above all who it is. >> michael, when you look at this episode, it goes down to the fines of the cloth. and it talks about a number of different lab experiments that were done all over the the world, frankly. and they come to different conclusions. talk to me about the significance of the blood stains. >> well the blood stains are huge. it's important to remember the shroud was found with another piece of linen called the sudarian of movieta which is a face cloth which the gospel calls wrapped the head of jesus after he had died. again, without giving await entire show the blood stains compared from the sudarian to those on the shroud were found to match. not only in terms of pattern but in terms of blood type. >> but what's also really interesting, i think, and to you, david, is that later in the program you get this other expert that comes on and says actually he believes that this is the world's first photograph. what? >> yeah. absolutely. some people have called this the world's first selfie. not to be too irreverent. but again, it is a photographic image essentially. and again, that's part of the mystery of this thing. you know they knew for centuries there was an image of a man on this cloth and it was revered as that of jesus. it wasn't until the 1890s or so that an italian photographer had taken the first pictures of the shroud. as he was developing them in his dark room, the negative images came out. and all of a sudden this image of the man of jesus, whoever it is popped out at him. so they suddenly realized this wasn't just painted on there or just impressed on the linen somehow. this is an actual photographic image. but look even if it's only 800 or 900 years old, how did a photographic image get on there eight centuries before the invention of photography? >> and why is it the only one of its kind if that it is. michael, you're dealing with people's faith here. you're dealing with somebody so sacred to people. i wonder how you walk that line. >> well with the greatest of respect. and i think the thing that if you remember poppy, we came in with questions and not answers. and so in using that approach we always had room to learn. and we did. and i certainly learned a lot more about the shroud that i thought i knew or than i actually did know. and might have come in a little more skeptical than i went out of the shroud episode with. so i think my own sense of that particular artifact was strengthened by doing this episode. >> david, did you struggle with that at all through this? >> no. i think it's one of these things. look this isn't going to disprove anyone's faith. it's one of those things that the christian faith does not rise or fall on the veracity of the shroud of turin. but what it can do, i think, if you're a person of faith it can deepen your faith. it can certainly provide a lot more information about jesus, about crucifixise about crucifixion what he or someone like him went through on the cross. jewish burial systems. if you're a skeptic it won't make you a believer, either. >> it just left me wanting to see episode number two. congratulations. it is a beautiful series. i'm glad we can air it here on cnn. for all of you watching you're not going to want to miss this new cnn original series. it talks about the science and the faith, all of it.
