hello i'm kemal santa maria and welcome again to rewind here on rewind we delved deep into the al-jazeera documentary archive to bring you some of the best and most influential programs of the past decade as well as news of what's happened since well sometimes the story behind the making of the program. half a century ago as war raged in vietnam and isolated community in the jungles of northern laos was recruited by the cia to help fight the viet cong over 50000 of the hmong tribe became part of america's secret army disrupting communist supply lines along the whole human trail thousands of monk died in the war but their problems didn't end when the americans pulled out fearing a crackdown by laos communist government forces many fled the country but some 7000 stayed behind then continued to fight what they called red laos from deep within the jungle where they lived in hiding in 2008 ounces there is tony burke they tracked uphill for more than 2 days through dense forests in search of the hmong

who were left behind he found a settlement of fewer than 200 people most of them born after the war but still living as their ancestors had he was the 1st outsider they had seen in 32 years from 2008 this is the last tribe secret army of the cia. an arduous trek through thick jungle a journey to find a lost tribe. people been hidden from the outside world for more than 30 years too scared to leave the jungle but too afraid to stay people on their knees. they are among part of america's secret army in the vietnam war. now they say they're being hunted by the laos army picked off one by one time is running out for the whole month of northern. the dead of night and

a rendezvous on the fringe of asia's dances jungles. these are my guys they are home on a rugged tough people used to harsh conditions. for the people living in fear. when we talk we wished for. will we try not to create noise and we try to avoid the danger. the danger is posed by the laos army they are everywhere the hmong told me and ambushes are common it's about midnight now we've been walking for about 3 hours up this huge hill hallways are put up with his tortures route for somebody like me but for these young hmong fighters it's a normal walk in the jungle and the sort of care they have to take to avoid the laos army. a few welcome hours of sleep beneath the dense canopy awaking to the chill of an early morning in the highland jungle of northern laos. breakfast was a kind of yam a staple diet for the hmong but something i would come to dread in the coming days

. after 2 and a half days of tough trekking i reached the outskirts of the village i loved and a quite unbelievable welcome. home and he's there to urge. any from 0 to that oh yeah. yeah i'm fine thank you. i was the 1st outside that anyone had seen for 32 years to some it was the 1st time ever. i didn't know it then but my visit had taken on a significance i wasn't prepared for. they called me father and gave me a deep respect for someone who could somehow end their plight to give them a new beginning and for the 1st time in a long while give them hope. her. like everybody. you know i love you sit there like you're waiting the dumbbell over

to her. only it's a load off. your. shoulder i don't run yeah yeah. yeah. yeah. yeah. yeah yeah this is just the most incredible welcome about. dance a welcome to introduce me to the losers. always people cry on oh you haven't really progressed since 975 living the same way that their ancestors did living in the forest in the jungle and it seems like they're abandoned by everybody wants more of them don't know that. it's hard to appreciate their sense of isolation the reality of what those last years mean. when you said that though i had a good you know. what

. you don't have to be in this village very long to understand why there is such a sense of desperation children are visibly malnourished they're dressed in old clothes barefoot or just with flip flops no medicine no education and little food almost a bigger fight than the government forces before coming here nothing actually can prepare you for what you actually see and that's the really depressing scene people living on the lowest level of human ladder and you look around you can't see much prospect for. improvement the emotion of these people they've really come to the end of the line they believe that if nobody helps them it is really the end of the line and the end of them on something like 580000 people among have died in the last 32 years they claim. and he doesn't get

a solution his problem they reckon they're all among her going to die here in the jungle. the area is close to the vietnam border and where the vietnamese communists had their supply lines it was called the whole cimon trail. 60000 hmong were recruited by america as part of the cia's so-called secret army to fight the cons but the fight against the laos communist forces has continued long after the vietnam war. today 155 people live in the community most of them born after 1975. then the problem bang chukchi is the leader of the 7000 hmong who he say's remain in the jungle 32 years ago he was chief of 18000 most he claims have been killed. people increasingly look to him for a solution to their plight the leader looks to me for stuff although not. all load up a saying with filmy on long. to our car or not to

you and your good luck with the thought of all our own one or all here and all you might like a bottle. o. . with the. thought talk or a little here and awkward got the heart of it all would be brought up all our o'clock o'clock local morrow here top it all or george off along all the hmong reveal him as animists they worship the land the nature incense is used as a means to communicate with their gods. on your life and you know i go hard part up here alone. gonna get the man i thought. oh i'll get you all. being a savior is

a big responsibility but the people kneeling before me was so desperate they would snatch any glimmer of hope even if it was me quite a long war hole or paired with the girl more dar no if you drop a new car down to the top it up a hollow hoop and all can document only not our want the moon. well it's a really strange situation the moment he was interviewing the leader and then suddenly he declared that i was formally being taken hostage until the united nations could resolve their problem here i did point out that one journalist like me couldn't resolve anything certainly not from inside the camp but this is a 1st for me being taken hostage by people to come try and help but it does show also the mark of desperation of these people they are really living a very difficult and hard life and from one day to the next they don't know how they're going to fare so i do understand to

a certain extent but i hope they do change their minds an unreal situation everything else that could change their lives for the better was a long long way away but i was here and the hmong were getting used to the idea. i don't know if you would. the region will go there or will i'm going to die already. had you know what we don't know and the. people have been scarred mentally by their experiences everyone has been touched everyone seems of lost family all killed they say by the laos army last year the leader told me 54 of his people were murdered by the military and their physical scars as well. as 72 he claims 10 children and his wife were killed by the army and then he stepped on a mine planted on a route villages took to get food. most. people. want
