what is the mood like in australia? we had the incident in canberra, that wasn't a terrorist inspired attack, but there's a heightened sense of concern no doubt? absolutely and the government is telling people that the terror threat remains probable. they claim this is the 12th terror plot they have managed to foil within some two years. that gives you an impression maybe of how that threat remains high, how the security services are being kept busy. there are major events over this holiday period globally. in australia it's the summer so people are looking towards the boxing day in sydney for the cricket test, major events that bring in hundreds of thousands of people. the australian government saying there will be an increased police presence, that on one level may make some people feel more anxious but it's intended to make them feel more secure. 0n it's intended to make them feel more secure. on this terror threat they have said they have taken down a large part of the cell so this particular thread has been neutral

second, australia is a country that shares our values. it's not as if these are people denied entry into cuba or bulgaria. so if the australians are rejecting them, what is behind that? doesn't that indicate there may be a problem here? the fact that they are being secret about this, i think empowers congress to say unless and until you explain this, this is not going to happen. we're going to deny the funds to do this. >> i saw on twitter someone saying that australia started as a convict, a prison -- a place for brings and now they are rejecting. >> that's they know undesirables. >> leslie, winner first and loser next. >> i would say the winners this week for me were the firefighters of tennessee. those men and women are working tirelessly to put out wildfires. the losers are anyone i feel fighting the recount. if there is fraud, if there is a rigged, if there is any duplication at all, whether it's a democrat or a republican vote, i, as an american, want to know that i want every vote counted because i think more people will feel their

this latest news out of australia it was an ambitious attack. they were going to hit self locations. it does underscore how problematic this is. >> you are totally right, charles. we talked about this yesterday on fox news. the thing that's most troubling when we are stopping these attacks or when we see them happening in germany, this is becoming almost like a new normal and we are getting desensitized to it. there was a time when you would go to the south of france and have a glass of wine in nice or enjoy a baguette in paris without having to worry about being gunned down by terrorists, and you can't do that anymore. this is the new normal that's been set for us and i don't think we should accept it. i think we should fight back. charles: one of the stories that struck me in the aftermath of the berlin attack was the strasburg market where they have the christmas tree with no decorations just in case they need to create space for an emergency field hospital. >> this also brings to the table maybe the point of discussion here, which is what i'

australia in 1942 he did not land as a hero. he was forced to flee the philippines with his family and issuing his famous promise, "i shall return." but not for two years. was he sort of licking his wounds? >> he was definitely licking his wounds. >> reporter: walt wrote this just released book "macarthur at war." how does a general on a losing streak and end of world war ii someone extremely popular throughout the country? >> mth to macarthur's credit by the time 1944 comes along, he is doing a lot of island hopping and he is really bought into the whole concept of air power. he is doing miraculous amphibious landings all over. he doesn't evolve as military commander. >> reporter: three-quarters of a century later, marines are deployed into the northern australia city of darwin for "cbs this morning: saturday" of an enduring partnership. >> i think that the collaboration that occurred with u.s. troops in world war ii under general macarthur certainly has laid the groundwork for the u.s. and australian joint operations that exis
