[000:00:00;00] the headlines here, what are you into national talib? i'd make sweeping games and gun asked on joe biden admit, the group is our strongest in decade the us present if it's still taking american boots off the ground by the end of next month. the mission, the accomplished in that we get us got a suburb, been log in. terrorism is not emanating from that part to serving things of self harm in belgium. as migraines go to extremes, and that's 5 for asylum. though authorities and system, they will not be blackmailed. and kristen drunk the us the right to try again to expedite julian songs. however. busy one of the was the below is oldest friends,

believes washington's attempts at the end of the day will fail. this appeal is an attempt to pro long inevitable. inevitable is the freedom of doing ah, the top stories of the day and of the week. welcome to the weekly here in the international i'm role research. 16 people were killed and dozens more injured and fighting between the african army and the taliban. this in the city of kandahar on saturday, that's according to local officials and come fighting has been intensifying across the country for the taliban and making big territorial games. while the us president joe biden has conceded the group is now at its strongest in 2 decades, he still defending the decision to pull american troops out your view with making

this decision for the last 20 years worth that we win for 2 reasons. one can you blame him off to 20 long years and no victory? anyone would struggle to answer. why? so the $47000.00 civilians could be killed, so that only half the population could live in poverty. so the country could lie and ruins faced with ugly reality. is it any wonder the bite and decided it was fine the time to come home? i will much send another generation america to warn i can stand with no reasonable expectation of achieving the different outcome. oh, there was no mission accomplished. how i got permission was accomplished in that we get to scott some a lot and, and terrorism is not emanating from that part of little we achieved those

objectives. well, not quite. i'll carnita might be gone, but the taliban is ascendant. advancing so quickly that and now claims to control 85 percent of afghanistan and with the country view, s and nato allies having jumped ship. it's people have been left to fend for themselves. according to them, they go. every one is worried about how long the uncertainty will continue. no one is doing business, the market and the people that work there have been badly affected businesses collapse because there is no stability before when the u. s. didn't plans withdraw, things were stable, but instability is increased since they left. i mean, i'm very clear the yes had contracts with market owners here and we used to purchase from them the withdraw will affect our business. we can buy any goods because there are transportation problems. some have already fled to neighboring tajikistan and iran, but that might not be an option for long. the ton of fine controls,

2 thirds of the border with tajikistan and recently captured the crossing to iran. meaning of the, on many escape routes left, an especially dangerous prospect for those who worked with foreign armies, fearing for their lives there. now cooling on washington to get them out of the monday gave us a recommendation. they've not only my life, my family, and i've also done a lot with really when we don't have an issue we have now we want to take any decisions or united nation or you call yourself humanitarians. but what kind of humanitarian saw you left me here after i worked 10 years for you. russia is also worried that the fighting will spill over into its territory. so it's arched restraint promised to g,

cuz tom back up on the board and maintains dialogue with the taliban and the country that created this whole mess. just opt in left. oh, i the i up to left in the dead of night without what apparently the washington claims that local officials knew that withdrawal was imminent. the very next day looters was seen plundering 5 grand base funny american souvenirs left behind. with this hasty exit parallel to being drawn with another open us, as for,

for was vietnam wage a war on terror realized that the tree is impossible in could deal with your enemy found in your allies and get the hell out of that. well, let's just hope the carpool doesn't fall as quickly as south vietnam did. to buy didn't at least has faith. is a tale bond take over that gas that now inevitable? no. it is known. is that what the goal was? 20 years ago? that devastation, no plan for long lasting peace. and i hope that the government wouldn't crumble as soon as the u. s. left. how many more countries will be put through this vicious cycle before the us finally learns its lesson. united states is a far very global empire. we are absolutely totally addicted to war. our

economy cannot survive unless we are either actively engaged in war or preparing for war. and so there's obvious parallels between afghanistan and vietnam when i was in vietnam, i was only medical mom. so i was seeing the rapid disintegration of american involvement in vietnam. so i was seeing in the homicides the suicides, the ramp, and heroin addiction shit out among the american soldiers within our own unit. obviously, at that point in 197071, we were questioning, why were we ever in vietnam? you know, because a lot of was thought that we were there to preserve peace and democracy and in the united states government. but that was all a lie. everything was a lie and the same thing is true for the war in afghanistan. you're going to see a lot of very rack and ask them better, is probably committing suicide. a lot of them are going to drink and drive themselves to death because they're going to ask themselves what,

what's the point of me ever being in iraq or afghanistan? hundreds of on documented migrants are on hunger strike in brussels. it's in a bit of pressure the authorities to give them asylum. some of even sewing their mouths close to show they have no say on wednesday government officials met with protesters. as we understand, no agreement was actually met. however, the union representing the migraines has says, probably some progress was made. officials now a fighting economic exploitation is one of the top priorities. they see that there are a 150000 living here illegally. and the $200.00 people that decide to stop eating should be regularized individually. what would be the results? a week later, you get 202020000 people who would do exactly the same. around a 1000000 migrant entered the e u in 2015 and we're blame for terror attacks and sharp increasing crime. some migrants who have been in belgium for more than

a decade. so there are asylum appeals still have not been process falling this report from brussels. our correspondent charlotte dubin ski indigo term migrants across brussels, taking action into their own hands and rooting in some extent to extreme measures to demand their rights, suicide attempts and sewing up their own lips. just to the shocking moves the migrants have taken to show just how serious they are. well, we've been to have 3 people have needed urgent care. some for men and women taking part in this protest have been in the country for more than a decade. and they say that they have simply had enough of government in action. there's also criticism that brussels and even europe as a whole, have been so hesitant and imposing any kind of rooms for their situation,

leaving them no choice. i have started this and i have to continue to the end. i've lost 15 kilos, but i am reading to lose another 15 or 20 just to be legalized. some other people risk their lives even more. my buddy carry me recently swallowed a razor blade. he had to get an emergency operation for other people. so the lips always actions are one. go to show that we really need the documents. i am the nipple guy, but my child is not nibbling. they don't understand the poly kennedy speaking the police and they speak only the does the things. so my child is, is property of belgium does give me work for me. then i can walk and i can give you food, my child, the belgian government. so says it won't change policy, it's frustrating. we are trying to help people as much as possible to get their dos is to be treated as fast as possible. but of course not every undocumented person,

not every person who is here can stay in belgium. the hunger strike is not going to help issue of undocumented migrant isn't just confined here in belgium. in front of also been processed stage to call attention to the thousands who threw in a similar situation. the in the but is a regular a shouldn't real solution in some other countries across the u. spain, portugal in italy, that's the route it's been pursued. however, that too has caused problems. italy's point to grant access to around $600.00 south is undocumented migrant. but the process has been proved with allegations that permit

a being issued arbitrarily with collective regulators ation. 9. that is only meant the new influx of illegal immigrants doesn't work for political action is their old responsibility is not that of the government or citizens of this country. if our government gives in every month it's opens the book for more actions like this for a new wave of immigrants coming to our country, i sent you the picture. let's together your situation more. her oral than is already used. wrongest ortiz on refusing to budge those supporting the protesters a that after 6 weeks, the situation is now very desperate. the undocumented people who have been in hunger strike, especially those 10 and one of our campuses have reached you, been point where they can irreversibly put the health at great risk. we regret that public us or just remain deaf to their quest, which will continue to support stay faithful to our humanist commitments and our

sense of justice. yet, despite all of the focus on migration at an any level, there is still no coherent strategy, which many think will only make the problem worse. the problem is huge. it is without any doubt, the biggest problem facing belgium and european union right now. every single domain is under enormous pressure because of mass migration. i'm talking about public safety policing and migratory services, but also about things like education, housing, and the judicial system. if we decide to ignore the rules because people go on hunger strikes that we're setting a horrible example. the migration law in belgium is not strict at all. so if your application to get red residence papers is rejected, that means you, you really don't deserve them. and you have to go hope that the problem is that the

belgian government isn't doing enough to make sure that these illegal migrants who have their application regret your ejected effectively go hope. in many countries, they are, they are put on a plane back to their country of origin. but in belgium, they just receive a paper that says they have returned home for the last hour here at moscow, a former police officer, maybe new york's next may. it's after winning the democratic nomination. he was picked despite a year of black lives matter protest who stated aims included the funding police and the city crime however, is soaring with the new york state governor andrew cuomo declaring a gun violence disaster emergency. the new, however, more your old candidate is eric adams. he served in the police force 2022 years. currently, he's the brooklyn bara president of the forefront of his platform as a commitment to combating gun crime. he supports police reform,

but his firmly against the funding, the police if black lives really matter, it can only be against police abuse and has to be against the violence that's sitting apart our communities. people want to feel safe. right now they don't feel safe. crime is happening all around them. shootings are up, robberies are up, homelessness is up. they see in the subway. they don't feel safe in some ways. you see it out in the streets, in their homes, in the neighborhoods and they want to feel safe. so this gentleman ran on a platform of public safety and making people feel safe in their resume with them. and that's it. you know, the, to find the police movement has been a large failure. demonizing and attacking cops has been a failure and people are ready for change and hopefully this is the capital is to some sort of change. it's not just new york polling shows concerns about violent crime or a 4 year high nationwide, in homicide rates, climbing all across the country. chicago,

chicago's mayor has now asked the president for help after the city stores bloodiest weekend over independence day, when more than a 100 people was shot. a police when he got them again, it says the public and the bonding action. but leaders simply are not listening. the virus is right in people's faces. you can put all the crime statistics out there, say your crime is going down. you can have all the feel good moments, but people know what they see. they know they here. and you can't deny that. so people definitely want to change, they want some sort of action to be taken. they want to feel safe. that's what's all about public safety. now you're not going to convince someone that just finished watching someone get robbed or know about shooting is going on in a neighborhood that they're safe. they want something done. so the euro 2020 final is over. who was victorious, england or italy, or let you know in just

a moment. i hello, driven by a dreamer shaped by those in me dares thing. we dare to ask oh, people with diabetes or number raises, whether it's not adequately managed or that they have some immune problem. then

their risk of infections and something like the coven 19 pandemic, was very bad news. the people diabetes. and we consider it as one of the very high risk situations in terms of people being infected ah, the the good of you to join us for this program, 6 months after the u. s. last, it's bid to have whistleblower julian san jose extradited a u. k. court has granted washington the right to appeal. the judge is reported who have agreed with 3 of the 5 justification the u. s. submitted. while the by the ministration is apparently now prepared to let the songs of any prison sentence in his australian homeland. but his partner claims he already has that right, stella morris this week also gave

a reaction to the granting of the appeal from just outside the court house. i was able to speak to julian now about the decision. and you know, it's mixed because on the one hand it's been 6 months and we haven't had any news. so it's like an endless purgatory. but at the same time it doesn't here. and julian's very on. well, he's happy when, when he i went with our eldest this morning and so it's not representative when i see him because obviously it's a, it's a one rest fight. he get off, but he's been you know, bowman, prison is a horrible place. he won his case in january. why, even in prison, why is even being prosecuted? there is no legal case against him. all there is, is an indictment based on life. washington once a son's face charge of packing and espionage which could land him, a sentence of 175 years of convicted in january,

britons judge ruled against the extradition over the issue of mental health. in 2019, he was forcibly removed by police from ecuador, and embassy in london after quito terminated a 7 year asylum that were helix at her in chief christian families. and so it's the sheer length of the entire process. it's shameful. well, it's a great disappointment for julius johnson for all of this is continuing. one would hope that the united kingdom courts would to recognize how ridiculous this case is and not grant the appeal. this means that this will drag on for some time for a prisoner to have to wait in a prison cell for 6 months for half a year, just to get a decision of whether the appeal is allowed to,

to his opponents or not. if outrages this decision comes on the week after it is revealed that the student does not have a leg to stand on the key with and says retracted his testimony and says basically that testament which was cited by the business judge numerous times as truthful allegation, doesn't hold true, it is a fabrication and the americans now know it and they're still continuing on this truck. this appeal is an attempt to pro long the inevitable. inevitable is the freedom of julian. if he does not get his freedom, it is such a load to our society and but we believe in that it is almost amount to turning off the light. so this must come to an end. and i can fence in my bones

that it will be coming soon. meantime, australian m p is having the come by yon moment as they urge president biden, to drop the us government's extradition appeal. the straining citizens want julius honor to be free. his treatment violates the convention against torture and his persecution threatens journalists worldwide dropped us president joe biden has ost, vladimir putin in a phone call to crack down on ransomware hackers operating on russian territory. but despite the white house admitting it has no new evidence suggesting that moscow has anything to do with the recent spate of cyber attacks. that certainly hasn't stop much of the western media from pointing the finger at so called the russian hackers moran guest. df explains in recent weeks,

months rushman hackers of have seemingly gotten to overdraw and at least a slew of us media reports about cyber attacks on american entities and corporations. if that is to be believed credited gremlins at work, obviously obvious that is only to the us media. we're not, we're not certain. the initial thinking was it was not rushing gums, but we're not sure yet. the media seem to know something that neither biden nor the f, b i, nor an array of intelligence agencies. something that they don't know because where the media is crying, russia, the politicians in the experts are much less sure. listen carefully to the language that officials use it. they are saying russia tax, anything. what president biden can, and i expect will do his demand. russia live up to its obligations and prevent its territory for being used for these criminal acts. it put in once russia to be a productive member,

the international community. he could certainly arrest and try these criminals in russia or hand them over to stand trial. elsewhere. pundits are saying, it's russia, they, they couldn't possibly know with it's russian government hackers or criminal russian hackers, or even if they're russian. not of the white house itself, doesn't notes. but there you have it. russian government hackers, breach the computer systems of the republican national committee last week around the time. irrational and criminal group unleashed a massive ransomware attack, according to 2 people familiar with the matter. it's the strangest thing. usually it's the, it's the professionals or the people that they report to the government that tells you if they believe that someone was attacked, it could even be the victim. they would, they would know. but in this case, the republicans, which the media has were attacked. even they say they weren't over the weekend, we were informed that synnex

a 3rd party provider had been breached. our team worked with microsoft to conduct a review of our systems and after thorough investigation, no r and c data was accessed. what pundits usually do is they write a sensational head, loves the caching on your clicks. some of the media makes money, right? ad thought, even counter from brush a collusion hooked skill down the list of debunked russia. hackers stories. and you'll see we only learned that they were made up after that generated millions of clicks. but there is also an agenda, the vested interest to keep painting russia bad to make sure that relations never rebuilt. rushing group are evil, the same group that took down j. b. s. hacking into software manager, casea ramps of demand came from a criminal organization likely be in russia. we're learning details of what appears to be a new russian cyber attack. the targets were us and foreign government agencies. we can guess why they keep doing this 1st and foremost,

the fortunes that have been made. scam on greg about russia from billions of clicks and media side. so enormous cash injections for the pentagon made possible only by hysteria about russia and the cause sold habits die hard after a century of bashing russia in all its forms. the american media just can't shake the habit. well, they don't have really any idea. they're simply surmising where these attacks are coming from. they don't have any way of sourcing these attributions. because this is merely, these are merely face of a baseless assertion. there could be a major cipher event coming up in the near future, and they want to have a ready, a ready scapegoat in russia. for some reason. i mean, there are all kinds of indications that something is of foot. in terms of cyber

security. it's merely a kind of a, a trope to constantly say russian hackers it's, it's just the common trope that they're throwing around without any evidence whatsoever. so this whole story is, italy is the official winner of the euro. 2020 foot bull championships. it's after they beat england $3.00 to $31.00 penalties off the extra time, so i guess it looks like it's not coming home after all. but if i go into rome, we're showing you live pictures right now from the heart of the italian capital, hundreds of thousands of people all up and down. all of italy are celebrating tonight. perhaps say, well does of celebration after a year or 2 of locked downs and all that kind of things. so very well this victory for italy, they knew winners of the euro. 2020. now for the meantime, your program returns here at the top of the hour with my colleague, shawn thomas. thanks for joining us.

oh, i. i join me every thursday on the alex simon show. and i'll be speaking to guests in the world. the politics sport, business. i'm show business,

i'll see you then me summer solutions where we focus on the solutions. not so much. the problem, stacy, right. we are joined by jeff booth author of the price of tomorrow. the the the in the me a welcome to was a part of type 2 diabetes is one of the deadliest lectures of modern times. as predominant evidence preventable. it's ravishing effect on school with 900 complications are well established, but does it also work the other way around?

you can call it 19 cause diabetes, but it's got that i'm now joined by holmes and professor diabetes. as my now she never sitting a trolley and founder of the international diabetes institute ism, it is good to see you. good to talk to you. thank you very much for your time. lovely to talk to. now i know that you have devoted many years of your life warning about the dangerous and the snowballing nature of diabetes is ravaging effects on the body. it's kyle rocketing race around the globe. but i wonder before this current car on a wire, it's been demick struct. give it ever occurred to you that diabetes would find such a powerful and cunning ally as it didn't start for you. i think it's a very good question to stud, and i certainly didn't expect the pandemic obviously. but people with diabetes,
