9:05 pm
now, we want to take any decisions or united nation or not anything most we worked foreign compounds. we delivered food and i worked with foreigners for 10 years starting in 2010. about 20 days ago. they left but we remain here. what's our fate now? what's the fate of our families? you call yourself humanitarians, but what kind of humanitarian saw you left me here after i worked 10 years for you . one former, i've got interpreter who asked to be called rafi for security reasons. tell us about the persecution they face from about since 2001. the narrative was the taliban or terrorist for against dollar bond. whatever was from day one, from the dated did it existed. however, when the world came to the premises, and they said they're fighting the terrorism and i live on the terrorists. there
9:06 pm
was some, some of the people from the community, cited the donation community and the war against terrorism, which resulted in capturing killing in thousands of these a terrorist. today. the americans before running away released some 6000 of these terrorists. there already struck a deal that another $7000.00 of these terrorists will be released now or who will be left behind to pay for the declines. the americans off committed the americans being enough balanced on war wasn't a crime. then why would you run away like that and leave interpreters and those will worked alongside you interest. so if the americans running away like that will leave the interpreters behind facing the, the brutal justice system off the top of them over his troops have
9:07 pm
also in our ups up their mission. and i'm going to stop, according to the case from the most of them have already left the country. wisdom of that decision was questioned by one of his own and peas x soldier from going to you saw action and i've got to start on to also related how he fought alongside another member of the house. this is an enormously personal issue for me. i didn't meet the hon member for bonds, the central here or any of the clubs, the think tanks around west meant. so i met him about 20 miles to the west of gums here in the desert. as we were fighting side by side against the enemy's. he's just lifted, and the achievements that he has listed were won with the blood of my friends. and i can point him to the grave where they now lay. because that legacy is now one that is in real doubt, we know it. and we know that it's not just his decision. we know that the u. s. decision to withdraw forces was fundamental here. but he can, he explained to me,
9:08 pm
how does britain foreign policy work in a country like half gonna stand if persistence isn't persistent? if endurance doesn't endure, then how can people trust us as an ally? how can people look at us as a friend? we spoke to a former broad apple officer who served in going on. he showed his thoughts with us on withdrawal and only in time mission. on the one hand, ethically it's right for us get to determine is that that will happen. it's just the future may well be particularly unstable. brucell takes us back to the medieval period of time without the democratic will or the democratic infrastructure being in place. and security forces were established to create to it. and i think to be realistic, we need to wait and see what the future holds for this thompson have correctly said,
9:09 pm
we've had 20 years, 20 years with trillions of dollars thrown up this campaign and to achieve what we've achieved in 20 years, which is unclear as a military guy, myself, i'm somewhat ashamed of that outcome. ashamed of us. so in less than 8 weeks, the us military operation comes to an end. they're not going to stop whichever way the future plays out. a live fact lives both inside and outside the country. according to reasons, estimates, the exodus of african refugees is on the rise considerably. the number is closing in on 3000000, putting that incredible strain on countries forced to cope with the new comers, germany, france, and romania top. but the v you countries taking in the most, i've gotten law grants in austria, a 5th of all refugees on alpha, up kind of on, on the large numbers. also bringing a host of problems. some of them gruesome as a shrinker reports. imagine you're in charge of a country. shocked by
9:10 pm
a creepy raid skin. the victim who died had just become a teenager. the suspected rapists are young and again, refugees. you've got no choice but to take action. if you don't, the public won't get it. and that's if you're lucky, if you get too tough on those who escape misery and war back home in their home countries, political opponents will give you a p r b t plus that will raise some liberal u eyebrows. let's hear from the man who's lately been facing this precise challenge . sebastian kurtz, the chancellor of austria. often i find it intolerable for people to come here, sing seeking protection, and then commit cruel and barbaric crimes in austria. politically, this means for me that we will stick to our line with me. there will definitely never be a whole to deportation to can it's done or a watering down of asylum laws for asylum seekers who commit crimes. what exactly
9:11 pm
did he mean by barbaric ah ah, and austria, more than 4 percent of all rapes, an 8 and a half percent of all murders are committed by afghans. of course, not all refugees are thugs. some are worried that higher numbers of refugees could mean more potential trouble. i want to be clear. the u. s. military mission of can stand continues to the end of august, where the future of of dennis day and looking murky beyond the withdrawal of us troops. and the taliban making large territorial gains. it's only natural that a new wave of refugees from there is expected in europe. it's obvious that austria can close its borders. it already regularly tightened its asylum policies. recently,
9:12 pm
the justice minister for the green party says more such steps wouldn't be right for the country. the asylum law, his old regimen tightens in recent years. our laws offer enough options, but we just have to apply them in a consistent manner. moreover, and 2019 the european court of justice ruled that you members have no right to the port a refugee even for committing a serious crime. if he or she proved that live back home would be in danger. all of this does seem to tie the hands of chancellor kurtz, who like you've heard, is in favor of dissertations for criminals. the minister of interior from mr. kurtz is party has locked horns with the greens justice minister saying he will push for more rigid migration and repatriation rules. at the level. the e u. silence system is not working. migrants who committed criminal offenses have to be reported immediately. while the advocates of the harsh approach towards
9:13 pm
refugees in the austrian government are teaming up with colleagues from hungary and the czech republic, the iraq received doesn't exactly paid the way for quick changes in a solemn rules. certainly, they won't be as quick as jo. biden's, keen of dana stand, pull up the silent system as we have it in europe is just a way to turn illegal immigration into legal immigration when the illegal immigrant arrives in any country of europe. and he, he says asylum, asylum immediately becomes illegal immigrant in the european asylum procedure, which usually takes yes. why? this is a general problem which you cancelled was one or 2 measures. at least dominion stick minister interior miss denise has now admitted that the asylum system up to europe in union is a disaster. but austria and the government has done nothing to change that or to
9:14 pm
avoid it. because austria, through the dreams of the european union, has collaborated in creating the system. we didn't send $11.00 single africans, african home for years in austria, not one and hundreds we in austria, for example, have a quote of about 50 percent, the austrian citizen in the long run. this is a huge problem because it tracks and facts migrants from older 3rd world. meanwhile, austria and feminists have been having best se on the ship to local media of racist reporting, which they say 5 margaret. a group of actors, even storm, the offices of a local newspaper, confronting journal. if you can find a video of that flory and a whole lot more besides on, on the dot com haitian government has asked us to send some 500 troops, i will help protect some of the countries key infrastructure that can be
9:15 pm
a nation is reportedly also made a similar request ignited nations. the move comes in the wake of the assassination of the haitian president, which has left the country in time. well, he's caleb wolf and has the story. while the united states is drawing down and removing its military presence from afghanistan, but it appears it will now have a new opportunity to flex its muscles much closer to home in the western hemisphere . now haiti is in a state of unrest 2 days after the president was assassinated. and we now understand that local officials are calling for the united states to send its forces into the country to contain the unrest and to protect the infrastructure of the country. the ports, as well as the airports and the natural gas and, and petroleum reserves. so at this point, it's not clear. if the united states will actually send troops in,
9:16 pm
there will be law enforcement officials dispatched to the country to help get to the bottom of who assassinated the president. this is what we heard from gen saki, the white house spokesperson. the united states remains engaged and enclosed consultations with our haitian and international partners to support the haitian people and the aftermath of the assassination of the president and response to the haitian governments request for security and investigative assistance. we will be sending senior s t i n t h officials to port a prince as soon as possible to assess the situation and how we may be able to assist. now it's also important to note that we now have the haitian prime minister calling on the united nations to send troops to the country to deal with the ongoing on rest. now we're also starting to get a clearer picture of the kill squad that was sent. and ultimately did take the life of the haitian leader. now it was made up of 28th individuals,
9:17 pm
2 of whom were haitian americans, the rest of whom were from columbia. and those individuals, some of them have been captured by authorities, there was a fire fight. gunfight that went on many hours into the night, in which, in which several, 3 of the assassins were killed. some have been captured, some have actually escaped into the taiwan embassy, broke into the taiwan embassy, and have hauled themselves up there. now from what we understand, at this point, the individuals are reported to have used rifles and michelle today. and the police have also presented their colombian passports, these assailants, the thugs, who killed the president. we've caught them, we've captured them there in the hands of the police, as you can see, the 2 haitian americans were in fact, us citizens of haitian descent. now the us state department has not yet confirmed.
9:18 pm
they were indeed us citizens. however, one of them is reported was detained at the canadian embassy and haiti. and furthermore, apparently on his personal website describes himself the describes himself as an official diplomatic agent. it's also important to note that the individuals from columbia were not just random, people from colombia, but actually former members of the columbia military. and they put my initial information indicates that they are colombian citizens retired members of the national army. we have given instructions from the national government to our police and the army to immediately cooperate in this investigation so that these events can be clarified. now russia has expressed concerns saying that they feel that it's possible external forces may be using the conflict in the country for geo political. and there's also been concerns from russia raised about the fact that
9:19 pm
some of these detained individuals seem to have us citizenship. but the image that is surfacing of how the haitian leader was killed is rather gruesome. we understand there were 12 bullets shot into his body. his eyes were also gouged out . now his wife was airlifted to florida for emergency medical care. she was seriously wounded. and at this point, the situation in the country has escalated. now, there are protest taking place there were protest widespread in the country prior to the assassination. many accused noise of being corrupt. and there was calls for him to step down that he was, you know, he was in power unconstitutionally, and now that he's been killed, it's not clear why he was killed. now we understand at this point that the haitian senate has proclaimed joseph lambert as the interim president. however, there is another individual, also claiming to be the rightful successor of the leader. now the military in haiti
9:20 pm
has declared martial law protests are still taking place on the streets. the situation is growing more intense. it, it appears possible that their consumer be both us and the un troops on the ground in the country. we are waiting to see what will happen next. all eyes are on haiti . according to reports, the to americans claim working with translators for the head squat. it's also reported the operation of the plan for a month, and then its aim was not to kill the president, but bring him to the national palace on board. i knew sure, a professor of latin american studies says it was a classic palace cou. the links between the drug enforcement agency, the different intelligence services in columbia, in the us, in haiti, definitely coordination. nothing happens in haiti economically, politically, diplomatically, militarily paramilitary without the u. s. is being involved. this could be the
9:21 pm
justification for the next us, always you, when the try factor of evil imperialism for the next invasion and in occupation of haiti, where the entire economy is us sweatshops and us agribusiness. so this whole myth about haiti being poor and having no geo political and economic strategic importance for the united states is ridiculous. so right now it looks like a palace coup. different wings of the haitian bourgeois z, both of which would be in touch with different parts of the state department or the pentagon, or the cia, or the d. a or these are the proxy forces from taiwan and what we're seeing columbia, they would be buying for this power. they would have their own gripes with juvenile movies. and there's a lot of egos and narcissism involved. but at the end of the day, this is a lot of palace entry, what would matters are the interests of the haitian people. and as they said to me as i was still in transit to new york city, leaving cap haitian,
9:22 pm
the 2nd biggest city in haiti, we were hungry when we woke up on tuesday. the president in the dictated, was killed. we had the same hunger when we woke up on wednesday. the trouble is blowing in france is plans to build off shore wind farms with turbines as high as the length of 3 full pitches. belgium's last legal action against the move off, the locals outlined their objections. paris nevertheless, has the wind in sales the president of the commission for any regulation. even suggested opponents should have the energy cut off shot at leaving ski travel for the area to discover more. it may look column, but a storm is brewing and it's a huge one front plans to build an offshore wind farm just off the coast here. the turbines would be as high as the eiffel tower, around 300 meters tool. so they'd be pretty imposing. the idea has
9:23 pm
caused a fury in neighboring belgium so much so that the 2 e u countries, a set to go head to head in court as belgium threatens to sue a complaint will be launched with the european commission because our country has not been consulted about the location of the area, while european directives require it independently, owned the french belgium board of that anger is palpable. since it is very close to the boarders. about 10 kilometers, it will be very visible from our beaches. this landscapes and the feeling we have of liberty and seeing the seeing the horizon is actually our main products. that is why people come to our shores. that is why people buy property with an ocean view is because as he does horizon, they don't come to the planet to see windmills for francis, a very important project, i understand that, but that doesn't mean that you have to put all the burdens with the neighbors and
9:24 pm
take all the advantages as a nation. so as you've heard that there is really strong opposition to this wind farms from the belgian side, but they are not alone. in this, we're about to cross the french border, where there are protesting groups who have been opposing this windfall ever since. it was suggested that if you do a little bit of research, you will find that this project is planned in the heart of the natural habitat, which is supposed to be a safe space for the species living there. and it's also a historic site of operation. dynamo, meaning that this project also does not respect history from, says president, mat, call and has a set himself up. is this defender over the environment? now he wants france to have 40 percent of its energy to come from renewable sources . so when forms that by 2030, now those wind farms are crucial kogan no idea. and the pressure is also mounting
9:25 pm
off. the high council for climate in france says that the country is going to miss its greenhouse gas emission targets. that failure would be embarrassing. but we didn't foam like the one that's planned for here are not popular with every one. if i go, we launched the petition. and despite that, when the minister came to don cack and we tried to meet her, she refused to talk to us. and then she came to tell us the detailed up a press conference she told us that this project will be carried out no matter the opinion of the locals. if this has any impact on the territory, why is it not for the inhabitants to decide? why is someone in paris making the decision locals here have even demanded a referendum over the project, but that has been completely dismissed by the state france. he's also ignoring the police from its fellow
9:26 pm
e. u. member. the government is determined to conduct offshore wind farm projects. will of course, continue the dialogue with our belgium and france to take into account the concerns . but the fact is that the dunkirk park is strategic for the implementation of our energy program. and that we must not waste any more time. however, that could be scuppered, not only has the french military now decided on new restrictions and constraints as to where wind farms can be built. but the senate in france is also just adopted a measure that could allow local meds to veto such plans. meaning that frances idea to be greener than green could soon have the wind knocked out of them. charlotte diva ski for all, see on the french belgian border. a flare up of code. 19 strains are on the well has
9:27 pm
a scientific community can son. and he studies suggest that to variance, in particular, maybe even more infectious and resilient to vaccines than the current predominant strains. the lumber, the strain thought originated in peru has now been detected as far away as australia that was 1st discovered a year ago. the strain is thought in the cause concern, and love that makes up the vast majority of all kinds of cases in peru and an increasing number as well in latin america. now, epsilon is the other poet variant that is causing alarm among the scientific community. let's take a closer look 1st, the tax id in california. recent studies suggest it's more infectious than other strains. research is also found, epsilon has more resistance. both antibodies produced by vaccines and naturally by the body, off the cobit. and they believe the effectiveness of current jobs can be reduced by up to 70 percent. professor pablo sickly and told us that codes and it's mutations
9:28 pm
or something we're just going to after live with the virus keeps all being and it's really becoming more of a chest missile. we don't know yet about it's about the city of though it is being driven down by the vaccine. so the most likely scenario, once we get everyone back tonight, if you started koby, it will keep transmitting in the human population in certain countries and it will, it will not really go away. the reputation at this point is almost impossible because it has a transmitter in so many countries at such high rate. also, even if you might, if you just, it's best to, to reduce new katie humans to 0 koby. well, so it's probably 2 has already jumped into other animal versus was and was a virus jumps outside humans. it's almost impossible to eliminate that used to be upheld as little as most searing indictment of racism. but now to

kill a mockingbird has been taken off the syllabus at one school in scotland for being 2 races or 40 work looks at how counsel culture is killing the classics. is really the most inspirational book of all time. a surprise when it was originally van for it was depiction of racism and sexual violence. but now one school in scotland has a bond to kill him walking by harper lee for another reason. the anti racism classic is now deemed racist because it plays into a white savior. narrative. the name of when i say band, i mean more like, canceled the teachers at the james gillespie hurtful in algebra. i've stopped teaching it to students as part of an effort to the colonize the curriculum and stein backs of mice and men and being cut to for it, racial stereotypes and frequent use of b and was sure to it's not, not there. but when i tell ok,
9:30 pm
i get the whole white savior thing in to kill them off. bad i really do. in fact, it's a great topic for discussion in say, an english class said, i get that just one percent of students that study english literature at g c. s. c . that's the exam that kids take at the age of 16 in the u. k. study a book by a person of color and just 7 percent of students in gfc study, a book written by a woman that is abysmal. and by the way, that research is currently provided to us by penguin books, u. k. who could take a leaf out of their marketing and disclose how many of the editors are non white for females for that? my sam look, i'm not saying that stay a reading list. couldn't use a refresh load. you know, white kid make up about 30 percent of students in the.
