afghanistan has now passed the ten year mark widely dubbed as a decade of failure by critics its human cost keeps on climbing more than two thousand seven hundred foreign troops have died during the fighting a war to buy the number of lives lost jason walk like reports. another day in afghanistan southern battle more casualties despite official claims that the war is being won two thousand and eleven is lining up to be the deadliest yet for u.s. forces fighting to tame the decade long taliban insurgency but things to improved medical capabilities casualties who would have perished in previous conflicts are surviving by these two soldiers one patrol in a vehicle when a roadside bomb exploded beneath him it took less than half an hour for a medic crew to pick him up by helicopter and deliver them to the trauma ward at kandahar airfield one of the country's busiest their injuries are bad but not extreme i mean we will most likely stay on base until they've recovered more severe cases such as if you teams are flown to germany for treatment right you guys with.

this facility was built to save critically injured american troops fresh from the front lines but doctors here also treat afghan civilians caught in the crossfire with nowhere else to go for help nine year old wiley was shot in the head by a stray bullet earlier this year when u.s. marines got into a firefight with the taliban his village in helmand province the bullet shattered part of his skull and would have killed him if not for emergency surgery in six months dr min park says he's treated more than a fair share of afghan bystanders mostly gunshot blast victims in this follow up operation he and his team are reconstructing the boy's forehead with a titanium mesh that will restore his appearance so i started what i was going on i was surprised by the difference i had this i was very likely very hard studies to show. in the recovery ward well his father at home mother says

that while he's sure it was a u.s. marine well it bit his son he's grateful for the first class treatment he has rescinded which i know what's that and i'm just happy that he's ok the shooting wasn't. he's forgiven accident or not the enduring insurgency suggests that no amount of goodwill can compensate for civilian casualties that continue to climb each month in a war the green zone to use and will close in kandahar afghanistan for. yes like a patient got to stand and that second decade american forces that facing growing resistance from people who think of never ending war and they're going on there is a new tenant cannell antony shop that says the u.s. is holding in the footsteps of the silvia cheney and should have left the country don't have. two thousand and three we actually achieved our major military objectives by two thousand and three what you've seen since then is just such are dealing with a culture we don't fully understand following the same failed path the soviets

followed in their occupation silly to actually try to secure the urban areas to basically modernize the culture and some hope that they would become a twenty first century society it's not our job to make the the lives of the afghan people better our job was to ensure that terrorist attacks cannot be mounted from there and that's what we did in zero three frankly everything since then has been a waste issue until we decide we're going to get serious this is really pakistan the afghan government knows that we know that and finally admitted within the last two weeks that the eye of the pakistani intelligence service has been helping the taliban but basically you have a pentagon which is committed to a failed course and they are not only doubling down on the tripling down on things that they know they cannot win it's time we believe if it were up to me i for president obama i would declare victory that we actually did back in zero three and zero four and let it go this is the deal you have to seek regional solutions this is not an american issue this is truly a pakistan afghan india iran issue and frankly we should be work with those people

who live there to find a path forward. hundred fifteen minutes we'll be bringing you more expert opinion on the afghan story with our military analyst who is in kabul giving his view on why america is struggling to contain the insurgency meanwhile on our website we're asking what legacy you think the ten year afghan occupation has leapt and at the moment more than our viewers say the war has brought the us nothing but bloodshed and bankruptcy just over a quarter of you believe that years of occupation have turned afghanistan into the world's biggest heroin hub for the sake of this thing the occupation was a stepping stone to an invasion of pakistan only three percent reckon that the world is a safer place because of the war so please i want to ask the doctor how do you all say on the sheet. during the marriage. target. still. seem to see if you were.

wishing to bring peace and stability to the world. ten years now you don't leave after. the decade long war in afghanistan is stirring up more than more and more discontent in britain with the country's military contingent is second only to the us and the country because it has already brought sorry to many british families claiming the lives of almost four hundred members of the armed services reflecting the unpopularity of the war in the u.k. activists have been joined by celebrities and politicians in the march in london calling for british troops to be brought home aussies are but it was at the rally. in the center of london and. sentiment in the public magination here in britain is . people are very angry that we're there in the first place obviously would be at a time of deep cuts. in all this money. being pumped into

a seemingly unwinnable war in a not so little light hundred million is the amazing. the saying is no reaching is the right people is the only thing you see you know you go really having much of an effect on the two thousand troops that are being killed in. a us university brown university thousand other people in this. civilians insurgents to. talk more about this season john hillery from the charity war on want to learn is very much first thing so i want to. let you know recently he even right situation going on in afghanistan that would you say is the worse it was ten years ago but i think in the last five years in particular we've seen a terrible problem in human rights just as the poorest escalates here it's failed to bring any extra stability to you see many more children being deprived of their rights many more people being killed a great high school. as well as in afghanistan because there's another thousand

people have died in russia on as well so it's not getting better anywhere it's getting much much good when you present causes also comes address the fact there is rampant eruption in afghanistan in the process of getting aid to the people who really need it the easy playing on the international community she really said when they just. go with the training and there's all the see corruption within the whole of the afghan government and the key thing here is about getting the foreign troops out the people in afghanistan and in britain we know here seventy four percent of people one out troops out and that's what we're saying to the government gala troops on the line you can start dealing with all of the problems in afghanistan the. people on the streets of london have been demanding an end not only to the ongoing conflict but also to nato presence in the media and among the high profile faces at the protest was a wiki leaks founder julian assange told r.t. binny been intervention was simply about the us and europe taking over the country

. the lesson for libya is that there are only two superpowers in the world was speaking why one day the united states and europe. together to take over a country regional justification for a no fly zone over libya has been completely abused it shows that there is no effective. night in nations is. be a lesson to us every time that a small mandate is given. military and intelligence powers. it is a slippery slope that leads to the takeover of countries. gammon has also been the scene of civil unrest is here with the president announcing that he has to resign in the coming days sunday who's ruled the country for thirty three years declared his decision on sunday prompting some to believe that nine months of

violent protest my husband plan to be born some fruit but according to. president of the hour bill is association salix assurance that he'll step down as nothing but an empty promise. he must have made a hundred and. speeches and in every single one of them he said he is going to leave and every single one of them he promised that he doesn't want to run as a president and every single one of them he finished he stayed in power this is absolutely no different from anything before i think no one believes what he is saying he had the. time to end his life when he went to saudi arabia as an exhibit policy was the americans have organized with the gulf states so that he stays away and then somehow he can leave but now that they're out of him to go it is very clear that they intend to keep him and it will take probably it's going to be.

similar to the one we have in yemen where as we continue to. people and continue to be killed and indeed the figures in yemen i mean creasing dramatically and i think i've been around for all this time he's not. even if he's forced to then it's going to be he's going to be there on the ground he's going to put one of his. or one of the generals that he has been working with. events in the middle east have become an inspiration overseas and in the u.s. the occupy wall street campaign is say they using arab spring revolutionary talk to achieve their goals and she called for the protests in new york and to their fourth week and have already spread to dozens of cities hitting the capital washington d.c. organizers claim bilby in a thousand american cities by the end of the month according to a post on their website and as the movement picks up steam the slogan occupy wall street has been changed to occupy together protesters say the greed of just one percent of the u.s.

population drove the country into financial chaos in the first place while some accuse those camping out in lower manhattan of on on the group as high overnight as aussies in the future can just have it. easier and i know people would you know. accused of being anarchist and disorganized the occupy wall street encounter meant it's far from chaotic it is set up like a small village broken up into themed sections way better organized than i thought it would be. they really have it set up so that there isn't a clear leader in the organization the way that it's being done but at the same guy . every part seems to be handled by someone in the medical area staffed by volunteers provides on the spot assistance a confort area supply sweaters mboya gets to keep demonstrators warm as the season gets chilly or while the donated sleeping bags pile up as the number of protesters

grows bigger we just took the child into our bus or if you're from richmond virginia. the kitchen providing a traditional american breakfast bread bagels and peanut butter and jelly plant roots are used to filter water here we have breakfast at seven thirty in the morning people don't work for spirits bread cereals so we have lunch. we have snacks came to the community really throughout the day your dinner at seven thirty a media center has been broadcast. in a live stream from day one of the protests for already three weeks videos film during clashes with police are posted online from these laptops you've got people coming in running in here i mean panicky you know adrenaline rush with cameras i got footage i got footage you know processing footage getting it online and simultaneously having people tweet you know on facebook when our social media using social media to get it out get the message out of what's happening as quick as possible why feeds of the protests are being followed by supporters across the u.s.

a revolution of change in america. party new york. and our resident reporting this eighteen nori how often it has been asking and he will straight campaign is also trying them and how they believe they can change the world and stop the rule of the rich. i'm here at. this week let's talk about pat i think what we're really protesting is you know the failure of the system to respond to you know a kind of higher calling for you know our country you know we can be subjected to. you know one percent of the one percent those are the real bad guys you know who make over five million dollars a year for doing that well i do feel that the country is in a very serious serious situation but it just the united states or is it a global issue it's a global issue but the united states adds at the center of of all of the most

important issues right now that we're going to hear from spain to the beat of spain we have people for life. and one of the he's a values all of you guys are doing. i mean thirty five percent by wealth by one percent of the population if you're going to be that wealthy you should have to pay a tax to be that wealthy it's only fair do you think that's going to happen through movements like this you know we're now as badly as we're out here trying during the sixty's there were riots in newark and l.a. because of poverty inequality racism etc i mean people riot and burn their old cities down as soon as that happened within a year there were all kinds of government programs to help people out because they got people really afraid that was going to spread all over the country we're trying to make sure that doesn't happen by having a peaceful revolution of some justice and some some enforcement of the regulations we already have on the books that would be

a good start keeping that's going to happen. i have to believe so yeah i have to be i believe so how is this going to achieve that. this is just like the genesis of a bigger movements it's been going on for a couple weeks and every day gets larger and larger so. i think eventually it'll bring results i think there's a large amount of discontent with what's going on in this country and i think that this is so people can identify me like no other people are feeling this way as well so i mean it in the sense of a rallying point i think that this is this is going to draw attention it's also going to draw people and whether or not you agree with their methods the bottom line is these people are getting the word out. and of course going to head to a twitter feed to get more on the ongoing anti corporate protests around the u.s. and our correspondents in america because the latest and show what they see and aussies in one of her tweets says it's a call to park in new york is now packed with protesters as almost two thousand
