the noise before it wasn't like that. you wouldn't see a light in the street after 7 pm. there's a lot of police here right now and that didn't exist before rick station still. right. and it was obvious as we visited, that the gangs were present, even if they're at peace. still, there's no doubt a lot of the population thinks things are getting better. the question is, will close to democracy, and are they willing to pay that price john home and i'll do it a little salvador. ah, look at 9 stories. the sour now lebanon, finally has a new government with the countries still deep in crisis. the new cabinets is led by prime minister, designate and achieve mccarty, lebanon's richest man. he vowed to save the country, but he'll have to fix an economy that's effectively collapse. more than 80 percent

of the population is now living in poverty with food and electricity, expensive and guess a group of west african envoys of hell talks with guineas, new military rulers who were under increasing diplomatic pressure emission from the economic community of west african states met deposed president alpha con day and demanded his release. special forces soldiers behind the crew say they asked him because of widespread policy and corruption. the african union has suspended the country off to sundays. qu, we talking about a community or a nation that has suffered enough of high levels of poverty, economic type, nation inequities, crimes, as well as what they accused of the government of high 100 nets over the last 11 years. something the new military rulers. yeah. say they want to correct now the fia, the real yeah. is that if they tell me community of west africa and the african union, go ahead with the threats of functions. this could watson can condition

a poor guineas who already suffered enough under the previous government. the u. n . s. condemn what it calls the taliban is increasingly violent, responds to journalists and peaceful protest. as statement comes a day off to to afghan report to say they were tortured by taliban forces. recovering a protest for you and also warned against the use of live ammunition batten's and whips on protest. as on thursday and acting, taliban minister said any alleged attacks on jonas will be investigated. now, is there any police that have caught 2 of 6 palestinian prisoners who escaped from a maximum security jail on monday they were captured on mount precipice. a christian holy sight near the city of nazareth, for others as did on the run off the tunneling out of the prison. those are the headlines this are coming out next on al jazeera, it's the stream me

. ah ah ah ah hi, i'm from the okay, welcome to the bonus edition of the stream i night to think of it as a theater, encore, when the cough comes back and performs and never we now breath in this show we bring you the special conversations that happened after the live show has ended coming up the growing humanitarian crises in somalia and the life changing work of women for women international in afghanistan and around the world. first, garza, the everyday struggle of living under a blockade rarely makes headlines. in

a post show discussion gets almost shaka, mama shall be a wasa abdur rahman said, personally about what it means to lack freedom of movement. have no security and live amongst the destruction of for was his mom, my colleague, the human rights watch, research assistant in the gaza strip, who is educated as one could be works for an international organization. never left garza until the age of 31 until a couple of years ago when we managed through various channels to get her permit to leave gaza. you know, for the 1st time and i distinctly remember talking to her, you know, her 1st time out and she described feeling like, you know, somebody who had been left let out of a prison like a bird that was sort of exploring an entire world. and it just struck me this reality that you know, just because of where she was born, no matter she pushed every possible wall as a woman, as someone born in gaza as

a palestinian to reach the limits of education and yet still for 3 decades of her life, she was unable to leave the 415-4511 kilometer piece of land. and that's something we've been able to help with a little bit. but tomorrow when she moves toward next step, she goes back to being locked in that prison. and that's somebody who has access. imagine, you know, the 2000000 other people that don't have that sort of access wafa. the issue of the floor is i had lots of stories including my own i'm, i garzon my family there. so when you talk about the for. ready the war is on god, i actually i had my family there and i needed to to connect with them. i live in ramallah, living and my love, that doesn't mean that i had the, i believe, the freedom of land. many people might think, expand 11 years,

unable to actually do that. i'm old. not even to go to to other cities, let alone go to god. so after 7 years, i got my address change. i managed to get a not put it under jack to find it. so i went through egypt to god's law and i. so my family and my brothers and sisters after it, i've been years that married they have children that i have never met face to face . and i think the last time i was in god's i was in 2015. i still have my mother said that it's so much fat, like are all of us of experience around the world being separated for family, for 18 months, maybe still separated from family to the can't travel because of the pandemic. but he's like, oh, i don't see my family for 11 years that he's not normal. wafa. you just shrugging

about it. i had my share of brain to deal with that. and every time i would bring it up, i would cry because i wouldn't say i'm all that it because there was something very important to me during this this period. i'm very, it was very close to my father. they couldn't see him and 11 years. so when the 1st time we mapped for me, i saw him for the 1st time that he could do read the old. and i didn't want to see that. yeah, i didn't want to be so this is like, i think, many palestinians, they have this experience whether they are the worst thing. you are in drama yard, in the so called palestinian territory. but,

but you cannot really go and see them and we're talking about less than one on one and a half and drive in a corner. and you cannot. and this is not because i don't have the money to do it or i don't want to do extra work. no it's, it's not like like the situation right now. so that was like, this is part of, of the story. and then i got married to this guy was palestinian was born in jordan. now he's living my same experience by the way. he doesn't have an id, it was going to get entered and i v y the x rays because x rays, they control the whole lives here in the west bank who, who gets that mess will get it cetera. so now we're waiting for the family, a re unification this year. he will complete 10 years of imprisonment and i'm

a lot it's, it's almost 3 is repeating itself, but i have a daughter my number. so my family in golf, but they never so she's here with us. so the issue of movement, the issue of maybe you see cation it is that a person and, but, but that, that's why i'm dealing with it may be in a different way. i'm almost on daily basis. i'm connected to god because of my offices there. we covered stories of women and children. we worked a lot during the radio war on gods are it? may we have lots of stories, human stories that we try to focus on. so when you look at what, what my family and my friends and, and the people of goals up, i'm going to do, i know pain can not be there,

but then you look at yourself and you look at them and then you see if you shine like i can not really talk about my stuff putting in front of a family that last point it's family member or the members or the children or the parents. or maybe that has that data file that order that is funding 25 years imprisonment. where lot that lags or their eyes, we have what company, lots of stories like that. so i think you shall use shadow a chunk of your personal life and i on. i appreciate it. when i said, tell a personal story. you literally told a personal story, mahmud, would you want to wrap before we wrap up to things that she would allow me one personal experience linking what all my found was. so as for the steam and i wasn't born in garza, so i didn't have an id. i was an unpublished union for a long period of time because as eloquent, you know,

get an id and who doesn't. so when i finally got my id and i got a scholarship to study for my, my stuff in the u. k, after the 2014 was i want to show you the meaning of continuous trauma. and when i went to the u. k, i had 24. what is the city hot water? whenever i needed freedom of movement, you know, going to going to scotland on the other places and back in guys. i had my 4 months old son who now is the, you know, the kid was nice with the sounds of bonds, my wife, my mom and dad and they didn't have that luxury that i was getting. when i sent back to god, i had more today than when i list because i continuously keep thinking of the things that i had was going to them. and the last conversation is one international guy. you know this ask you this young senior and what are your dreams?

so they end for the cmc simple. you know, i want to get a good education to have a job too many that love to buy a home, to have children and live safely. and then the national guard seeing and i was asking you about your dreams, not you are right. this is very entity that we are living in. and that's part of the deep, clean, empathetic mom. we shall be a senior program manager for medical aid for palestinians recently on the stream. my colleague josh rushing house did a discussion about the increasing number somali people facing hunger and homelessness due to complete an extreme weather after the ball cast josh off the gas. how the involvement of other nations has impacted somalia. so my now over the past 30 years has really been at the receiving end of this year. actual invasions, i would say, if you really, as,

as one of the countries in the region that has come sometimes to somebody but assume, regarded by the so many people as an invasion force really come into the country once or twice, twice constant trying to. ready fix the politics as you would say, because they, they say we are a part of a problem to the security of the region. but this really negatively affects security situation, the political situation. and so my mom and has helped the community of the region anyway. can i also just add to something that i think oftentimes gets missed when we do these kinds of discussions and that is sort of the, the human talk about all the use humanitarian crisis. i remember looking at that footage of that elderly lady who you know, clearly is in distress. and as a somali, it really broke my heart to see those images all over again. because i remember

interviewing these the, you know, the, the fema somebody, novelist, 195. i think it would be exactly 10 years ago, 2011 and basically, i remember his saying something that really stuck with me, which is that it's really hard to be dignified and i'm quoting him now. it's hard to be dignified when you're being rationed. and i think it just seems like some molly somalis are constantly in the state of being rationed by the international community. and as somebody's, i just find it really heartbreaking because it's really hard to be dignified. like you said, when you're constantly at the, you know, the behalf of others. yeah. what you said during the show stuck with me about 10 years on what was 10 years ago. what has changed. okay. and what can we expect to be different between now and 20? 31 he you know that the fact that has been happening even before state collapse. i think the aid industry and this cyclical draws and

you know, the weak government has been some think it's been something that has been ongoing for, for 2030 years now. so really, like i said, it's up to the so many people to really work together politically does work together so that we can eventually such take responsibility for the humanitarian crisis as well on governance. but also now with the international community more interested in, you know, the conflict, say this a hell or even a few other things to be including. i think it's really time for somebody people to take on responsibility. just simply a lack of opportunity. where do you have a common saying that when the animals go, you sign up to be a refugee like that, that seems really problematic in some way to create an area of climate change. you know, you become so kind of a normal top which is shouldn't be, shouldn't be a normal pattern. and maybe just a very close on the, on the 8 industry i mentioned i've been around here for, for many years now. but on,

on that side of things are changing and we are trying more more to work with local partners and to put more emphasis on the local initiatives. those are put more responsibility on the autonomy in local talk to. so, guys like me probably will slowly disappear and will be different. some of that is to there's a kind of numbness to the somali story to you that if you looked at all of these factors, if you put them in any other country, the international community will be going crazy. like to respond. but because it's coming out of small, yes, like somalia again, and that's surely it's got to make i hamper efforts to help there. i would assume that the people are nearer to the suffering of somalis up against me. this is this disco. it's the constant, the constant name that they always say, you know,

somebody is a resume and i think this is part of the problem, this labeling of all resilience. and then forgetting that, you know, things actually real problems that the people are grappling with. and i don't think the id is really responsive to them at times. i don't think i wanted to mention it, but the funding for the humanitarian response to c is around 41 percent. and i don't think that will be. ready that will be covered by by many so and you know, i think on to the corporate 19, the security challenges just gotten in the cloud of i've got over everybody. i think it's a really. ready read crime for you know, a different way of looking at so maya, how does the crowd about the industry in effect, somalia was one of those connected i think is really a panic within and i think i international community circles on what exactly are we

doing in somebody and how are we delivering this aid? and jeff just mentioned, there is a need for swift and flexible disbursement to local community based organizations. of course, with the proper accountability measures. there's a lot of money spent on somebody just monetary infection, but also in the security sector. talk about 2000000000 a year. and if you go, if you look at it on the ground, that the impact of that, of those resources, or if all of those resources strictly endowed to the somali people or making any difference. it's very hard to stay. so they need to be a different look at how things are evidently, and i think of what happened there. i think that i see now looking back at their plans and you know, try not to, to make the same mistake with somebody, but also what genetic be some that bob and it's leadership looking at kind of stan and the way the talent have been able to run the country and ticket back in like a couple of days and they're basically sitting there thinking if we just put our

time, it's still the international community will just eventually go away and we can have it all to ourselves. so we went in there, so additive, them, narrative time and again that you know, a forum as will always need and the way they have, they have placed this, i meant is that this is actually an invasion course and it started in 2007. i mean, you just trigger the 2007 by the invasion of the field, and then you have the amazon forces. we have approximately 900000. i'm some african union forces and so my lawyer. so i think it is a lot of comparisons when you look at it that way. but i think there's also lesson plan for that from the support. so mind government to the so many people that you know, the difference between as an extremist terroristic group and the, and as you know, i look at i station that was looking internally. and so the, this a very interesting lesson was as well, if you miss the somalia episode, any stream episode go to stream out there,

adult calm to stream the stream whenever you want t usually in your average interview set up. it's the journalist who asked the gas questions, but when norry adams, the ceo of women for women international appeared on ha streams, instagram life series. she flip the script on josh, rushing. just you yourself have spent a lot of time and i'm going to stand. i know what, what do you think going on? it was heartbreaking to me. i've been getting messages from every afghan i've ever known where it was saying, you know, help me out, brother. they're going door to door looking for us and i've done specials on interpreters who had been approved for their visa to come. and then we're stuck in a bureaucratic limbo for years sometimes while the taliban chased them. and that was, you know, so it was 5 years ago and it is the sad part to me as how predictable all this was. i mean i think i put in a report. ready in 2009,

someone saying that the u. s. may have all the watches, but the taliban has all the time is just waiting just waiting for the us to leave. and so everyone knew the us was going to leave. i don't see why they didn't have like an evacuation plan on the shelf 10 years ago on how we're going to secure a call. we'll get everyone there. and then we're going to have time to get everyone out before you know the us back out. a called like all that should have been plan years and years and years ago. for us to be surprised that the taliban went to the country so quickly. it's been evident. it's been obvious that every time that there wasn't some surge western forces that tallman took over and, and had control. and so this was going to happen. and it's, it's just shocking to me and it's not like combo that hard of a city to hold in the sense that there's only so many roads into it. there's mountains that go all the way around it. they couldn't help the city for a little while, while they got had time to get people out. it's like there was no intelligence

whatsoever. it was, i didn't, i think the this goes beyond my place isn't as a journalist probably, but i think what you had at least the u. s. military is generals are steep and. ready telling their bosses that they can achieve what they're being told to achieve . and they're validated on that for years and years and years. and so you don't spend 30 years getting the validation per saying, yes sir, will make that happen to then be able to turn round and tell your boss, i don't think the end you're looking for can actually be achieved where they could have told their boss that generals us generals good to told their boss 9 know, 8 and 7 and 9 in 2010, you know, but instead what you have was every 12 to 618 months, a new one, come in to us at all. we got a new plan. this time and i interviewed them. so what's different now than 5 years

ago? it's the same thing. oh no, we've got it figured out this time, but that will be gone. 12 months at a new journal will come in and have it all figured out. you know, and it's, it's just so predictable, it's like watching a ball. does your move toward you an inch of time for 10 years and not getting out of the way, which is kind of like climate change in the same way. you just see this massive been coming so predictably and so slowly and no one getting out of the way of it. and it's so frustrating as a journalist to. ready just keep doing the same stories over and over and over until it actually happened and then do do the story like well, yeah, that's what we've been saying for how many years. you know, i mean, it will have frustrating as a journalist or took to watch this happen and to actually give a damn about the people on the ground. and i think it didn't have to be this way. you know, heartbreaking. and i mean, that's going to stand papers, i haven't read it myself. it's. but i've been watching the news clips about it and

you know, it documents how the u. s. investment was so that we knew all along that it wasn't too. so not only is there the failure to prepare, but the gazillion that was spent was spent badly. so anything was left behind. and so all of, and it's documented, and i think, but that's the important thing. journalists, you play an incredibly important role to show us those facts and we as citizens, have to put on the pressure. so that's what we need to do. we need to, to, to shine a light on those facts. use those facts to say this was unacceptable. this is absolutely unacceptable and we need better from our government and, and also we're just gonna have to act philanthropic lee and insulted air dear selves. because while we try to get our government to do something better, and i mean it's different about that. the listing of papers and the pentagon papers

in the 60s, like pentagon, new 165, and i wasn't wonderful. and most of those deaths occurred and 686970 like i don't understand. they say journalist, right, the 1st pass it history, right? we then it gets out of it, but it's just really frustrating when everything seems to be repeating and such a predictable. ready and miserable way that we can't do better. i mean, look, that's why, you know, i am in the, the civil society sector is that i, you know, governments do act in the interests of their perceived interests of their country perceived because i don't believe this is actually, but they believe. and so i, that's why i'm in the, in the non profit sector, that's why i'm not just in the, in the movement sector building movements because i government act in their perceived interests and we need to support citizens. we need to support families. we need to support women and we have an opportunity to do that. so i spent

a lot of my years as an advocate and i think it's advocacy is still really important. but the reason i left a pure advocacy pure, you know, trying to get policy changed was i thought, you know what, and it was congo they did it for me. and if i had been in afghanistan, it would have been atkinson in the 20 years is going to take us to get a democratic congress government with the right policy. women's insights are falling out right now because what is being done to them. so let's provide some practical support even while we try to bring about the structural change, which is absolutely necessary. structural change. but right now it feels really, really difficult. and i think a lesson is, you know, it, it isn't, it isn't, however much you, if you're an american, however much you love your u. s. government, the u. s. government going in to determine and other countries futures is not the way. the way is to invest in the citizens of that country to build their future because it's nonsense that you know, all people,

all people want as we're just talking about, they want to invest in their families. they want, they want, they want peace. and so, you know, we can trust people that they will build a better future for all of us. if we invest in them. not have it be our government said, determine the future of another country. that's just a short accept from a riveting conversation. you can watch it on the a stream i g t v page on instagram. and that's i show for today, laurie adams and the work of women for women international in spot are closing, slide shows, africa, women at home and abroad. thanks for watching. ah, [000:00:00;00]
