i want to begin with john miller and lead me through all of this. the what questions are we asking should beasking and take advantage of the experience of tim and maryellen. >>. >> the motive. are we dealing with terrorism or a sick individual? as we get more granularity it looks like we're dealing with someone who has emotional and mental issues who acted out yesterday. in those cases, when you get to motive it's often very unsatisfying because if you can find why they think they did it it doesn't make sense to us. >> rose: mary ellen, you've looked at this. tell me what you see in this man >> well, what i see someone with a lot of cop tra dictions, incob consistent behavior. some people say he's a sweet young man. some people say he's very aggressive. the concern is what he has been in the past acting out in an aggressive way it's very disproportionate to the offense. going back to 2004 when he shot the tires out of some construction workers, is 2010 when he shot around through his neighbors' ceiling, his behavior when he's aggressive is dispropor

our senior correspondent john miller is a former director. we heard some concerns about these members of congress about a backlash if america attacks. how do you assess those possibilities? >> that's what the intelligence community's been working on. which is what is the likelihood of retaliation and in what form. parent and part of the calculus is this is an operation against syria for using chemical weapons. if they retaliate against that they're upping the ante. the question is, would it be syria, would they use hezbollah, with iran step in in the shadows or would it just be cyber? >> what are they doing to prepare? >> a number of things. from the fbi standpoint they're going through their cases and saying where do we have suspected syrian intelligence officers? where do we have sources? are we looking at iran cases? are we checking hezbollah files? are we tickling those wires? that's for situational awareness awareness. >> hasn't this started to occur? a group associated with syria has already hacked "the new york times." they've hacked f

miller. john? >> reporter: well, scott, mike morell spent 33 years in the c.i.a., some of it briefing presidents on complex security issues, including the situation in syria. he told me he fears that a drawn out war in syria will ultimately give al qaeda terrorists a safe haven there-- the kind they once enjoyed in places like afghanistan. >> the two groups now are in some way affiliated with al qaeda, al nusra and al ashsham, are the two most effective organizations on the battlefield. and because they're good at fighting the syrians the moderate members of the opposition joined forces with them to fight the syrians. >> reporter: the end of a civil for what syria could offer one of two bad outcomes: stronger more brutal assad regime or a rebel government influenced by al qaeda. i spoke to an intelligence analyst who have set an uncomfortable thing has a ring of truth which is the longer they are at war in syria goes on in some sense, the better off we are. >> i disagree with that. the best o

investigator john miller has the case she met with him today. we did another announcement to put the case in the medias eye in an effort to get witnesses to come forward. we continue to follow up on this case. the homicide cases have no statute of limitations. we also follow-up on those cases and try to develop leads wherever we here with the suspects were arrested we try to get more information. when witnesses we're aware of we're willing to ask them if they're willing to coordinate with the investigation. my make myself available and many if you, too to keep this case in the publics eye to try to develop information. i'll take any questions >> i'll only add to that as the commander said ms. brown knows who's responsible for her sons homicide. we need to have the testimony necessary to make the case. obviously there's no one more frustrated than the mother. we feel it, it's genuine and we'd love to move this case forward but absent some sort of objective evidence or witness testimony we're unable to do that at this time. regardless of whether o

we go to john miller. this is an ongoing situation. what do we know? >> there are fatalities. we don't have exact numbers. we believe more than half a dozen are shot. as i say at the beginning of each of these, we've had far too many over the past year. this information is preliminary. the incident is still unfolding, some likely to change. what we have from early reports description of a male gunman black shirt and hat. multiple weapons going through the navy yard shooting people. some casualties have been outside, some in buildings on the fourth floor. we don't know if the gunman went in the buildings shooting people orb if people fled. >> this is a military base. you have to pass through security to get in. how is it this person could be armed inside. is he a member of the military? >> that's certainly one of the things they're looking at. one of the key factors is we don't know as we're speaking at the table whether he's still on the loose, whether he is in custody, whether he's dead or alive. what we do know is that some of those wounded were police officers metropolitan

john miller is with us good morning. >> good morning. >> what did we learn? >> this case comes out of the office of loretta lynch in new york. yesterday quietly they dropped a document into the file that certainly caught my attention. the case is about an individual a young man from britain who went to al shabab the terrorist group in somalia. they became part of an elite unit. they had one line that said they had substantial knowledge that was developing chemical weapons to be used. >> isn't this our worst nightmare, terrorists using chemical weapons? >> it's certainly in the top one or two. nukes or chemical weapons. and in the context of what's going on now, the top cia analyst told us a week ago just after he left the agency that if syria's government fell theal key da governments there could get ahold of those chemical weapons. you see that this is something the intelligence division is concerned about. >> there seems to be two things, one is getting their hands on it. two is al qaeda making it. that's a much different standard, isn't it? >> it is. al qa

. >> pelley: now cbs news correspondent john miller on assignment. >> every day in the oval office, the president gets a classified intelligence briefing. for the last year, an important part of that briefing has been the bloody civil war in syria. as the number two man at the c.i.a., mike morell was a key voice in those meetings. after 33 years in the c.i.a., there may be no one in washington with as much experience in briefing presidents on complex security issues. morell retired from the c.i.a. just six days before the chemical attacks in syria. in his first television interview, he told us what the war in syria means to an already brittle region and why it matters to the security of americans at home. in the broadest sense, where is this syria thing going to take us? >> mike morell: i'm concerned, because i fear the breakup of the state of syria. collapse of the central government, sectarian warfare, opportunity for al qaeda to have a safe haven in syria that is not dissimilar to the safe haven that it once enjoyed in afghanistan and once enjoyed in the fata. >> miller: in your brie

our senior correspondent john miller is joining us now. john, remind us of this undercover operation that the leak exposed. >> so this was may of 2012, scott, and this was the new and improved redesign of the so-called underwear bomb. this was an actual plot where an al qaeda operator was supposed to wear that bomb on a flight in a suicide mission to new york, to the united states. instead he turned out to be an undercover british intelligence agent who had penetrated the group and disrupted that plot. they were very upset because they thought they could further exploit all of the things that came with that information if they had a little longer to work with it when it leaked. >> pelley: how was the former f.b.i. agent, sachtleben exposed? >> well, one thing was the associated press had its telephone records subpoenaed as you mentioned and it appears from the legal documents that it was might being through those records that his number came up. he, of course, was involved in a child pornography case already. they had his computer when the

miller who has quite an interview tonight on "60 minutes" with mike morell, the recently retired number two official at the c.i.a. john, what strikes me in your interview is just how complex and delicate the c.i.a. sees this effort to armt opposition to assad. morell says we have to give the rebels enough support to force assad to the negotiating table but not enough to destroy syria's army. >> the syrian military and the institutions of the syrian security services to defect al qaeda when sms done. and every day that goes by, every day that goes by, those institutions are eroded. >> schieffer: so, john, here's what strikes me-- this is a war. things are changing by the minute. is it really realistic to think that you can calibrate the level of support that precisely? >> reporter: you know, that is the question. you've heard about precision strikes with missiles, but how do you do precision strikes with whom you give either money or arms to? and that's just because it wasn't complicated enough, bob? in morell's view, there are four wars going on there. there is the war of the people aga

john miller has been putting together the story of how the killer struck the headquarters of navy sea system command. >> reporter: it appears aaron alexis planned his attack very carefully in the days leading up to his rampage. once he entered the building with the hidden weapon he seemed to turn the very training the navy gave him against him. police say it appears alexis headed straight for the fourth floor that overlooks an atrium that was filled with employees having breakfast or coffee. investigators believe he chose that spot because it offered a position of tactical advantage, allowing him to shoot down into the atrium or across on to other walkways. alexis stayed there until he was confronted by responding police and security officers. a d.c. police officer exchanged shots with him and was wounded. n.c.i.s. agents confronted alexis and fired. alexis took to the stairwells, moving from level to level of the atrium, continuing to shoot. alexis shot a security officer and took his weapon. once he left the atrium, teams of police searched with no contact for a long time, some esti
