we started this thing i mean know who the taliban were and i didn't know how radical they were just what they were about. one of the things of the talabani as is they they didn't have a clue about oil and gas business the idea was was to bring him over and establish credibility with it with the taliban that we were a real company. mati

millet secretly invited to a group of taliban leaders to unit cows headquarters in sugar land texas. no press covered the event. i have some the statues that i got in indonesia and their figures and the people carved out of ironwood and the people are neck it. and i had one of these professors islamic professors check my house out when he saw these things he said i don't think that's going to work with the taliban. so why would this when you've got some black trash bags in the adhesive put workers on the spot that's what they did with the burkas on the statue. marty miller was a vice president of oil company unocal. they wanted to build

a huge oil and gas pipeline through taliban controlled areas of afghanistan. but how did these negotiations influence us foreign policy towards the taliban. because. the us can capital of kabul is preparing for a new iraq foreign forces mostly was drawn on the afghan soldiers and police will

now be responsible for security in the country. but in twenty fourteen five thousand of them were killed in battle is against the taliban. but the taliban hasn't always been an enemy of the west today their former foreign secretary lives in a heavily guarded house in one of couple's bettors suburbs. during the ninety's he was involved in discussions with the american oil company unocal. took my advice to the war cause in a. rather. bizarre the world of news just for. then one of the one jewish. that does it in a little cutting it up as a loophole for the oil could be a political committee that as the can he wants the if the buff the levy of

etiquette i took as long as i was at it he thought of it by the homeless but that's it because he had of a place like you. bill as if there was that they think it will last. since the soviet invasion of afghanistan in one nine hundred seventy nine the country has been in a state of constant warfare. during the afghan insurgency the mujahideen received extensive weapon support from the united states and britain in their struggle against the russians. and. the soviet occupation ended in one thousand nine hundred eighty nine. two years later the soviet union pulls some collapsed.

you know cows c.e.o. john saw an opportunity in the full of the iron curtain. at the time the soviet union broke up and china opened up which shop and more last sametime read a very senior guy. kind of cruising the former soviet union to look for opportunities. we realize that turkmenistan had a huge world's last gas reserves which were produced by zif soviet union but after breaking up they were not produced any longer because russia had his own gas supplies to bring to market from siberia so mr john was stock was reserves and no market. unocal wanted to build two pipelines one for oil and one for gas the pipelines would go from many stunned through afghanistan pakistan and india a distance of well over seventeen hundred kilometers construction costs would be

close to ten billion dollars. of john is done could earn four hundred million dollars per year in transportation costs which would more than double the afghan government's income at that time the whole area is just in turmoil you know the pakistanis don't like the afghans afghans don't like the fact stan is the turkmen are skeptical of both of them and then you've got india and pakistan all is just a mess and there. is a good sense that there was a power vacuum off to the withdrawal of soviet forces and local schools foot of the territory in a protected civil war i. realize. it is going to go. in the north people gathered around the northern alliance and its leader ahmed shah

massoud the so-called lion of publishers. in the south and east another movement began to assert itself in s. nic past june areas. they called themselves the taliban and was supported militarily by pakistan then in conflict with india. the pakistanis were trying to impose their will on the future of afghanistan and they wanted to ensure that afghanistan was not going to be a strong viable nation state that could in any way reconnect as they had in the past was india. taliban leader mullah mohammad omar was a war hero from the use of insurgency against the soviet union. pakistan decided it was going to assist all of all how it all bar in this group which had no

name and what they provided was money on that front or a. training ammunition trucks tactical advice and then eventually they provided they call ups the students religious students afghans and pakistanis thing what came to being thirteen thousand bhadra saw us was in the northwestern frontier province. joining going in the fight. before becoming an attorney julie susan worked as an intelligence analyst at the pentagon who sources in afghanistan warned against you know counts close relationship with the taliban. worldwide there is a very broad perception that unocal was wrecking with the u.s.

government to promote the taliban as the most likely source or as a stable single group in trolling afghanistan. and there was a safe think in after the. or hopefulness on the part of sound that if this pipeline could be put through it could be a source of stability or development for afghanistan and i personally don't like the idea that that stability would mean that the taliban would be in charge. with the civil war raging mahdi militia went on these first journey into afghanistan. at the time there were six or seven warlords that were feuding with each other and it was you know if afghanistan was not a real safe place to be. the first thing i notice is the devastation. you

counter reminded me of the pictures i'd seen of. germany post world war two. the taliban headquarters it was it was a house that was still all intact but there weren't a stick of furniture in the house and all the we we slept on the floor and i and i had a it was kind a little traveling road show sort of thing course you don't have slide projector yankers there were named electricity in the building but i had some diagrams and charts in shoreham some things and some just basically to describe the project and and to tell them what the benefits would be and then they were very interested. the message was always if you guys will quit fighting with each other and form a government we're just human recognition that allows us to attract the world back

to maybe be an answer. then we may have a view. but at the time the band were on the offensive i drove the northern alliance concept of the cities of my zone in shawnee farms go boom. they don't control most of the country. mohammad's not too long president during the soviet occupation had been spared by the northern alliance but the taleban showed no mercy not below was first tortured cuss treated and then harmed alongside his brother. the execution was a clear sign of what kind of regime had seized power in kabul.

julie serves traveled in secrecy took a bill in one nine hundred ninety seven in order to learn more about the new regime . i had gone into kabul when i was held by the taleban secretly they dressed as as an afghan woman in a burka. they seemed very foreign to me certainly many asked answer conservative muslims but even among them they generally do not support the sort of extremism that the taliban stands for i see the taliban really is an alien force. their attitude toward women or a number of human rights issues i found disturbing but i think it was that larger geopolitical issue of them being back i had pakistanis that was most disturbing to me. not.

when the president came in called out did you kill your own good but you need to have a good experience with going to. the toilet on man said bitterly just today it's. still being learning insanities and the mother says they couldn't did it was not cuba to troop that it was a twelve day tonight central ministry that was the problem mark. america's concern about afghanistan had been minimal before the unocal pipeline project but on and gus negotiations spock's the clinton administration's interest in the country. i'd probably go to washington d

c o once every six state weeks and i would typically meet with the state department the n.s.a. and cia. the cia was was very very well for you know they have this shadowy image i guess you call of that i found very straightforward and very professional and i think the clinton administration was really committed to helping you know american business and be successful. we enjoyed and really strong support from the. unit wasn't the only oil company that wanted to build. pipeline in afghanistan option time company breed us was also trying to do a deal with the taliban. oh but he does win this fight and the meal was over and does so little the ins of the hands of all of them is of no is this if the

president had to let a. kid will come to the can we have a look at the results of that as. the taliban delegation arrived at unocal is headquarters in december of ninety ninety seven. marty came home one day and said that when g. thank about having a group of taliban and allocation come to our home for dinner. to know what to say at the time i had to thank it trail and i was pretty naive maybe they come in and say how americans home and realize that their. average regular people maybe it would you know be good for them to to do this and agree to do it.

on a multi million did their utmost to avoid offending the taliban visitors and removed all the religious pictures and figures. but they did not remove the christmas trees the air that the taliban came to our house there was a charity fundraiser thing and we had seven christmas trees in our house and the tali bond just blew their mind they couldn't figure out what that was all about and i think they were trying to. make a connection between a christmas tree and the birth of jesus christ and you know that you're just trying to make a religious. action with what's his christmas tree all about. they never did understand that thing. as a whole there was free because it is too different from. eastern culture but the

phone to their nests is over the what is called us society and i'm part of us drove me to new arrival and first from that. dressed in their newly acquired jackets the afghans visited one of you know cows offshore platforms. and fresh and i got as they were amazed they were stunned to see these platforms in the gulf of mexico over seven and live three hundred feet of water i think just the magnitude in the complexity of things and they were very well blown away by. the next leg of their journey took the visitors to omaha nebraska where they met one of america's foremost experts on afghanistan petroleum resources. the united states are trying their best to talk to the taliban who are obviously beginning to

take over the whole of afghanistan the state department asked me to talk to the columbines and they brought them in here. and so this room instead of having guys in suits and ties like they always had before these were talabani and you know was co-captain turbans and long beards and i really had to say they were afghans no problem and so i told him i showed him all this neat whiz bang satellite imagery and stuff and if you're looking at our country we're looking at your country where you is and you can do this to show you how to do this all you need do is come over here and get educated in this stuff. the taliban teams journey ended in washington d.c. where they met leading officials at the state department. the state department was still hopeful that this was going to be

a part of the international combined effort that would be profitable for unocal profitable for the afghans commercially and financially profitable for the afghans in terms of development and education profitable for the region. the tali bhangra interest in the project they were keen on making it happen they never did sign a cooperation agreement or anything like that because they were afraid to sign anything without knowing specifically that mullah omar was was behind it. there are hardly any pictures of the mysterious taliban leader. in these rare footage of him. tries to hide behind a blanket. and . i was in khandahar the first time he was there and they kept saying that they were going to go talk i dast if i can go seen and they said no no no. you're not

seeing shots of to see them all over your. mind you know khalid was in dialogue with the taliban about the pipelines another actor began to assert himself in afghanistan osama bin laden. this son of a saudi construction millionaire was a local hero because he participated in the insurgency against the soviet union. and returned to afghanistan in nine hundred ninety six after having be forced to leave the sudan. now he was preparing for a new war global jihad. wayne

started on capture the good hearted in consequence a concept called deletions and seeks to be found it was sometimes not anybody's colleagues eating good soup the tiny one moved in to kind of not to be protected. as a rival back in afghanistan coincided with my own to work with the un. never met the salad at a lot and i saw him once in the bazaar then as convoy car passing by but i never you know we didn't labor anything we didn't know each other were looking at the other so. that first year that he was in the area was the time when he's solidified his free lation ship was mullah mohammad omar. natoma and riddle of the. so there is

a lot of work on those i don't know where did you teach of them was fed up of what i say you have to do with the judgment of hollywood. must you move when the interview took on a whole almost sort of. in afghanistan marty miller and unocal how did the cia did the training of local workers who would to be employed on the so-called peace pipeline. we'd like to hire locally so he had employment opportunities for the afghans in fact one of the things we did in khandahar as we established a training center we found an old abandoned warehouse that we outfitted then we brought some equipment any a welding equipment. tools that were needed for the training. without being aware of it to me that had established his training center in the same street as a sawmill been logons house. and i'd never heard of the guy before i didn't know

who it was looking back on it. kind of gives me the creeps this is think about i was act most of that guy. was someone bin ladin was also busy building training facilities. a new series of rewind a can bring your people back to life i'm sorry and brand new updates on the best of al-jazeera documentaries the struggle continues from the till now or use distance rewind continues with baltimore anatomy of an american city close friends who were lost to the streets i can literally see the future of baltimore to the as my students and it does not look good rewind on al-jazeera when the news breaks.

on the mailman city and the story builds to be forced to leave the room just. when people need to be heard women and girls are being bought and given away in refugee camps al-jazeera has teams on the ground to bring new award winning documentaries and live news and out of iraq i got to commend you on hearing is good journalism on air and on. examining mandatory sentencing in the us if the state of florida requires the rest of my life in here as a tradeoff for my family's life the bargain i'll do it if the defendant goes to trial the judge has no option but to give the mandatory minimum there were complaining or this judge gives you five years and this judge gives you twenty years so the legislature acted to make a difference exploring the dark side of american justice the system with job on al-jazeera.

oh again minorca island there are the top stories on al-jazeera and this one person has been killed more than a hundred injured after a grenade attack in ethiopia's capital prime minister had just finished addressing tens of thousands of supporters in the capital addis ababa as mescal square when someone tried to throw a grenade towards the stage. is a problem so we're just going to defuse that moment there was a grim it. but i think the guy was just trying to stroll to the stage. save him just to keep. just went off and. there are some people who are just wounded because of. turkey's presidential candidates holding their

final rallies ahead of elections on sunday the vote will bring constitutional changes into effect that will transform the political system president. biggest threat comes from his running for the main opposition republican people's party. people in the southern syrian province of there are fleeing towards the border with jordan as government forces step up their offensive thousands have been trying to move to safety as syrian forces target rebel held areas. united states has indefinitely suspended some military training exercises with south korea the last one comes just weeks after president donald trump a north korean leader kim jong un met in singapore promised to end military trainings in south korea in return for pyongyang taking steps towards denuclearization but he's extended sanctions against north korea for one year saying it still poses an extraordinary threat. the u.s. is still struggling to reunite hundreds of migrant families who are separated as

a result of donald trump's immigration policy this week public pressure forced the u.s. president to sign an executive order to stop the border separations but he says tough enforcement will continue to see what he called phony stories of sadness and grief . spain's new prime minister petro sanchez is on his first official visit to france for talks with president emanuel mark rolls on sunday both leaders will travel to brussels along with leaders of more than half the e.u. member countries for emergency talks on the current migration standoff with all the headlines i'll be back with another full news bulletin here on al-jazeera first though let's return to taliban oil. osama bin ladin was busy building training facilities. bin laden eventually became

responsible for organizing the flow of foreign fighters between chechnya bosnia and the arab world for the taliban these soldiers were useful reinforcements in the fight against the northern alliance this enabled been logging to strengthen his alliance with the taliban and to recruit soldiers for his holy war on the western world. was this your first post that idea that is this tell you what i think you know i think that they are and they'll say first that look you know the one of the albums out there that well they're going very well and their value and they know if you but if you go below the roof and on and. on the seventh of august nine hundred ninety eight a bomb exploded at the u.s. embassy in nairobi. similar tenuously

a bomb detonated in neighboring tanzania two hundred twenty four people died in these terrorist attacks and building four thousand were injured. the i'll call you to trademark was established serial attacks triggered by suicide bombers. i don't think i was terribly surprised when i heard about what had happened because in laden was there he was able to do it in a standing he was being attempted by the taliban. the young spy wanted to learn more about bin ladin and visited his enemies the northern alliance it was a perilous journey on horseback. along bible roads. my interest in what was going on in the n.t. taleban areas because that was the area where we did not have a lot of the information in my sense from back in washington is that

a lot of officials and policy makers were just writing off the resistance to that's how bond. she met northern alliance leader ahmad shah masood who asked for support from the west in the fight against the taliban and al qaida. during her visit says go for unique insight into what was to come. northern alliance prisons were full of foreign fighters from several countries their goal was to participate in the global jihad. she was especially shocked by what the prisoners told her about the close relationship between pakistan the taliban and al qaida most sood urgent he wanted to alert the west he wanted more people to know about the taleban and how they were interacting with

bin ladin in to emphasize that if we were opposing bin laden that we should really realize that he and the taliban were sharing the same goals and resources and funding. but judy says report was not well received by her bosses at the pentagon. the state department was even more annoyed people were saying they were very upset about my trip and i was told i simply wasn't going to be able to stay and that they weren't going to give me my security clearance back so essentially they fired me. the clinton administration continued in its efforts to influence the taliban regime . and we were in the middle of trying to. get them to modify their behavior and i'm a believer and you talk to your friends and your enemies talking is not acceptance

of those practices. from day one clinton administration was trying to push back in first you know control and then pressure the taliban regime into change and of course that escalated once son of bin ladin left sudan and went to afghanistan in one thousand nine hundred six the bombings of ninety eight were conducted from there so it was very much on the forefront. the problem of osama bin laden stood in the way of any agreement about future oil and gas pipelines. he had declared war on america and this on the ten years bombings of our embassies in tanzania and kenya really put us on a war footing with sound and then from that point on we were actually trying to kill him. on the twentieth of august nine hundred ninety seven president clinton ordered the launch of cruise missiles against several outcall you

bases in time to stop. four of the bases were destroyed in twenty five. were killed but bin laden himself escaped i remember when president clinton sent some cruise missiles and afghanistan. i just as when i told. my boss in the board of directors that it was time that this this one got to go anywhere any time soon. about point you know withdrew from the part blind project but the french intelligence analyst. argues that the idea of an oil and gas pipeline lived on. in the states where it was fixed and. they were pressuring the taliban to release bin laden. by negotiating about the pipeline the same sign the taliban were

thinking they were calling the united states is not in by discussing with them the python. a mile marker the pipeline issue was in leverage in preserving his country from u.s. strikes and avoiding to take a decision on bin laden. osama bin laden was also interested in continued pipeline negotiations. a strategy memo from bin laden's close aide mohammed ought to have was found to join the investigation of the nine hundred ninety eight east africa embassy attacks this memo written by mohammed atta's it states clearly that as far as the taliban were mentioning relationship in some way was with american businesses over this project or us diplomats. and their security and tightest security guarantee.

the little. the terror attacks against the east african embassies tasted the relationship between the taliban and the al qaida leader. his presence in afghanistan. became a big part of the trip. and they did in there in the early should between a kind of sign and then match them committed to. a law. if she does that would be part of those see was a victim of tragic surgery so you know sort of blood because you know she sued the

low base live near zero but the kind you oh and your way those shooter was on thursday. the gee it kind of that is you know. just sort of begin to do it just as you would understand the saudis have. done and found. all the for you from a hunger strike in front of another. for the. news that he. did that is. towards the end of the ninety's the pipelines were no longer on the agenda or in talks between the u.s. and the taliban. the u.s. asked thirty times for osama bin laden to be handed over but the taliban gave no clear answer the types when essentially now where the taliban the more we would close and the more they push back the more we push them on al-qaeda expelling us

out of bin ladin the more they would fish back. they just got more designed. to make you. not follow and to teach you talk to no man no of the honey you. know you borrow. for them but you know really nobody. does a fish to each other not with you but your way no one of the dogs can. when george w. bush came to power in two thousand and one even you did tend to get bin ladin extradited and get started with the construction of the oil pipeline. by van unit. it was out of the picture but others tried to revive the plans.

w. bush in this direct connection with the oil industry and he was to try to be more persuasive with that i. made a special documentary about the prelude to september the eleventh. american born adam gadahn is the film's narrator an attack on afghanistan had been planned for a long time the americans are boiling mad about a number of things the islamic emirates domination of strategic energy reserves as well as the route of the proposed gas pipeline from the caspian sea. and most of all its refusal to hand over osama. in berlin in july two thousand and one

a final dramatic meeting about the taliban was arranged between representatives of the united states government and all the players in the region. to pongs during these talks there's a u.s. representatives that will make this ultimatum that will have enter the carbons of holes in the carpet a bomb. the americans and informed their allies during a meeting in germany of their plan to invade afghanistan in the autumn before the first snow fall which is what the eventually did so we knew it was coming the question was do we sit back and wait or do we surprised them with a preemptive strike. get

my. eye . i was there in nine and they were in new york it has already voted today and. there were a tragic and tired. of the people of the united states and innocent people was wiping out. of those not all of the news but i knew. she. was above the so i begin to tell you that it was a good study i would be judged on zero or on but it would. i just cannot juice. the signature was there to tell you about us or the speaker to get across.

the taliban offer to extradite osama bin laden to a third country but now the americans have decided to remove both him and the taliban the from the seventh of october america and britain attacked. the northern alliance exploited the resulting calles and the taliban regime unraveled. on the twentieth of november two thousand and one the capital city of kabul failed. with us backing canid karzai was inaugurated as president his brother had been working for unocal and because i was well acquainted with the pipeline plans. soon after nine eleven a couple of moms suddenly we feared that's goldman's from the region got together and basically decided to revive the project. that means that even without knowing

the fate of. terms of stability all these countries at come to the same conclusion they had reached before nine eleven the spy plane was crucial that. the interests. after years of war there is still no pipeline the taliban is back in strength and reluctant to negotiate about peace. they cost the kind of on a government brought to a new going to mean that the title of democracy in the human rights meant dave did not bring peace to afghanistan the insurgency against paygo have been installed by the international community is still going on.

that. the war against the taliban has made the building of the pipeline impossible . but the afghan north also has some oil after the pipeline was shelved john idol who had left unocal considered investing in an oil and gas project in mazar e sharif. look at afghanistan the political risk is amazingly high. risk. but the reward is also moderate. together as. opportunity for. the rich to argue that the country's petroleum. previously known.

as the geology in that part of the world for both mineral resources and hydrocarbons that's pretty spectacular why are they so poor they have not developed those resources first. and then the past thirty years of war nobody has been able to do much. one afghan who tried to develop the country's oil resources and an early stage was king mohammed zahir shah. after thirty years in exile he returned a lot of afghanistan's history has been. came king when he was only nineteen years old nine hundred thirty seven he gave the u.s. firm inland exploration company exclusive rights to oil extraction in the northern areas of the country. they were also given the rights to build a sixteen hundred kilometer pipeline. but the second world put a stop to these plans. older afghans. a time

of peace economic progress the introduction of democracy and education. they need money nannie. made new attempts to restart oil and gas production in the fifty's and sixty's a series of test wells were drilled and. geologist mapped the country's resources. afghanistan at the end of the seventy's as part of the atlas afghanistan project. he got a unique insight into the maps of mineral resources. there was one american geologist me and two hundred fifty soviet russian geologist. so when i left afghanistan in late seventy eight i was actually in de ported by the

communists who had taken over the government i left having sent my maps out of the country and the diplomatic pouch came back to the united states and i worked on the mineral resources in afghanistan ever since. west of mazower other remains of a canister finally from the soviet era. the plant is still in operation but no longer produces as much as when the russians were there. mouthing about on the roof on the at i don't understand kill zone not that hold only shasta million goes down is as it passed saw a thousand yards past flower johnny surely inside of saddam mission that. could be quite sure that in asia.

in two thousand and seven an experienced oil geologist rediscovered this area. he'd previously worked for unocal but he now worked as head of the norwegian aid project oil for development he wanted to help afghanistan with a new oil will. it too long to his dissuaded from traveling to the north but with a known discoursing he went anyway. at one gas plant he discovered a brick don't room where documentation of soviet oil and gas production had been hidden. behind the secret wool lay old maps and seismic sylvie's that showed afghanistan's oil and gas resources was significantly greater than the outside world was aware of made history in those areas so although in the all that's on the air this is ultimately existed. or the american that i was built although shitsville fourteen years of thirtieth in all of them did in the midst of

a legal flotilla. the administration offices for oil and gas in mazar i'll show reef allocated an old soviet buildings. chief engineer mohammed to john off toddy has made it his life's work to preserve the dusty archives. several times he saved maps and documents from destruction. lapointe inaccurate critical cannot get on the ground and good at home i will not undergo no why would i not if you haven't but i want her younger ones stuff on my third cousin there i was young good hard time i'm going to she couldn't do it oh yeah the world didn't shut down after mother she can if you know how i don't know

hardly any and she asked me how much the way mine he is he knows when the last trial you know that would make me look on their guy a moment as he fist american not let a young girl letter he could have knowledge no knowledge if. he does a muslim now that's a woman i don't know oh you don't know how. i felt i don't know a lot on behalf of the majority. leader and. despite little money and poor health i toddy has systemized to finals and preserve the valuable data for the future i don't know one of the at least gallup poll got the job of are they not wanted or india could make about what they did a moment ago. that i buy the time but i reckon you i mean there's a lot of the media not all may know or don't know or don't offer. you may have to hold on a moment mad mad cow but he'll be

a good question for him or he will get those are very old he could come forth a little or whatever you think that. the united states once hoped the peace pipeline would unite the warring parties in afghanistan they still do amazingly enough they still want to build it. america's arch enemy iran also wants to build an oil and gas pipeline to india to draw on is in a hurry the aim is that the new peace pipeline should be completed in twenty seventeen. but again it has to go through taliban controlled areas peace with the taliban is more important than ever. was at risk of deja vu all over again it's not impossible that the taliban would come back to power they are an element they're not going away and in order to have.
