come from the well, the shy of 40 days later we have images like this one coming from couple. and yes, there are the images of helicopters, listing americans off the us and the state. and now the taliban has announced the renaming of the country. law mac m, as in sam. so why did president biden it's totally get the future for us, get us in so wrong. and what is being called biden's saigon moment. as a reference to the failures, the u. s. suffered in vietnam in the 75. we're going to discuss the long, outspoken critic of the war and get us in congressman and we're going to bring you at the latest comments on the afghan. it's dan from the president following the emergence from vacation. as was the 36 of you on whether or not the biden administration deserves the blame for the expedius class of the african government . considering this was something president trumpet declared. he was going to do as well with the same chain of events have transpired under trust,

direction. i'm going to use and you're watching news use use right here on our t america. let's get started. ah, caliber has taken over afghanistan with an unexpected strength and speed that has the bite administration scrambling to evacuate, remaining americans and afghan to help us forces. during the 20 year war. our teacher john hardy, has more tells a tragic story. desperate afghans hopelessly clinging to the side of the u. s. air force, c, 17 gen. some reportedly falling to their deaths as it took off over cobble inside the jet. for some 800 people, flown to the u. s. air force base in doha cutter. they were the lucky one. at least 7 people were killed as thousands of afghans rushed the how many cars i international airport cobble trying to escape afghanistan as the taliban continued

its fast defensive satellite photos show the airport overrun with people, men, women, and children, futilely trying to leave aboard any and all planes taliban leaders took over the presidential powers and cobbled sunday, lowering the afghan national flag, skin president gunning the country. taliban forces continued to advance over the weekend, taking control of cobble afghanistan's other major cities. the taliban leader mall abdulla gunny ballad are called on taliban fighters, not to be quote unquote, arrogant as they continue to take control by dar will join others senior taliban leaders in cobble, italian, their spokesman and carter meanwhile, said the taliban will protect the security of afghans and their property on the security of the call will city and that the, the properties of people, the honor, are not autumn,

harder and people are not killed. it is important for us to take all the necessary measure for the security of people. so they actually are doing now, but some fear it will be anything but a peaceful transfer of power with the taliban, despite its messages of inclusivity and peace. hunting down those who helped us in western forces and further subjugating women and other africans, the rushed withdraw from the u. s. embassy and cobble has drawn comparisons to the fall of saigon in 1975, president, inviting, cut short his vacation to fly back to washington. d. c. to address the ongoing crisis as his administration scrambles to do damage control. and president biden speaking from white house, defended his decision, and continue to draw down of us forces in afghanistan, though,

admitted that the rapid collapse of the country happened faster than expected. listen, i stand squarely behind my decision. after 20 years, i've learned the hard way that there was never a good time to withdraw us forces. that's why we're still there. we were clear eyed about the risks. we planned for every contingency, but i always promised the american people. i'll be straight with you. the truth is, this did unfold more quickly than we had anticipated of canister, and political leaders gave up and fled the country. the afghan military collapsed sometime without trying to fight. now, the president said that the united states provided the money, the training,

the resources. but in the end, the afghan gover military simply didn't have the will, and the u. s. could not provide them the will to fight for their own country. he said, 6000 us troops will be on the ground this week to help with the ongoing really evacuation . and that's what it is. efforts as to why the u. s. didn't pull afghan sooner. well the president said some just simply didn't want to leave. and that the afghan government, he said, did not want to create panic by allowing the us to pull thousands of people ahead of time that will argue way. that will be a big point of contention. i'm sure. finally, scotty, the president said that the buck stops with him at a quote. i know my decision will be criticized, but i'd rather have that and pass an endless war on to yet another president and administration and quote that you, john, you are fine for now. and keep you real quick while i have you us in the press conference, i listened to it. it was interesting because there was really no new information. it was almost like a speech that he could give it a week ago. there was nothing specifically addressing what we were,

what we're seeing in the videos and the photos going on the streets right now. you know, was there a chance for him to take questions from a journalist? i have a feeling, a lot of them had some now that's the short answer. he didn't take any questions. you know, he left the podium without taking any questions, but the pentagon, pentagon officials are answering questions. they're taking questions, of course, the state department. and i'm sure there's going to be lot lot more to come out of this. you know, the bottom line, i think the, the main message that the president wanted to get across. scottie was that he defended his decision. he said it was the right decision to make. he did not want to leave any more quote, unquote boots on the ground and that they will, that us forces will continue to protect the airport and to get people out of there . but, but now comes to the debate about ok, why weren't people get out? you know, why are not special immigration visas being given to those who did help us forces?

who did help us personnel? because those are the people that are now severely at risk and who can't get out of the country. so there's a lot of logistical questions that remain at this point. and that's the topic. and those will be ongoing. that will be part of the ongoing debate as we continue to look at this. and john, i think the key is, most americans are like, great, i'm glad that we came home. it's just how it's been handle, especially the last 2 weeks of it. like you pointed out, it seems like we weren't prepared. why was that not already said, why did we not already get people out of theater before we actually pulled our troops out? because guess what? now you have cast on the streets. i think we're sending our military backend and even more dangerous situation for john. thank you so much for covering this today. you're welcome. now to give us some insight on the events likable we bring in for cars when from florida, alan grayson, the arrogance that america has shown in afghan a stand and some other places has been our downfall. it's hubris that defeated us and f kenneth. stan not to tell about, well, and that's, that's probably

a big question, not only applies that case and but several other theaters around the world that the us got involved with. i want to talk to you about how quickly the african student government actually felt. you know, we keep here with this vietnam britain reference, at least south vietnam, actually held for 2 months. couple was actually just 2 weeks. do you think those in power in the u. s. government, you order the withdrawal actually thought these governments were prepared to stand on their own, or was that just saying things when they actually knew the truth? a certain amount to the military industrial complex has gotten the idea that they can dictate to reality. and that's what you saw there are certainly people inside the u. s. government who were telling other people inside the u. s. government, this is all going to be fine. we. we spent our $6000000000.00 a year building is fighting force. and it's all going to be fine. the problem is they ran up against 2 things. first of all, the people were actually in the african army. didn't feel that it was

a matter to them whether the foreign occupier continued to occupy the country or whether a ruthless dictatorship, religious dictatorship took over. it simply didn't matter enough to them to fight. and part of that was the fact that we're paying them a $150.00 a month, who's going to risk being decapitated, face to face of the taliban warrior for $150.00 a month. the 2nd thing is that people don't really understand this. there's a cultural aversion, believe it or not to dying and war in that part of the world. so what happens instead is something that goes all the way back to ancient egypt. what happens is that the 2 parties decide who's going to went ahead of time who's going to lose, which is stronger, which is weaker and weaker, so gives up. so that's what we're actually seeing happening now in afghanistan. this cultural aversion to dying for the cause. well, in that cause, however, it seems to change to a certain extent. now that a new group is in power, but you know, here's what i get. a congressman, both trump and biting, gave this timelines. the troopers were all, do you think it was a smart idea?

to announce this militarist military stickly, based on everything going on, the us, what they were going to be doing when they're going to be gone to the region. do you think that basically gave a timeline as to when everything else can build up against us? matters, you know, the taliban always knew within 100 or so the size of us forces in afghanistan at a given moment. you have to give them some kind of credit for knowing what's going on inside of our operations. just like we know what's going on inside of their operations. so i don't think that's the deciding factor. what is the deciding factors that we spend years negotiating with tell then trump came up with an agreement that he was very proud of. he called it a peace agreement and there was nothing in that agreement as taliban pointed out last week that prevented them from taking over the country. that's really stupid. but the thing is they didn't take over the country until by an accident out. and we started actively withdrawing our client risk drawing our troops. do you think there were any other outside forces that were actually involved in convincing the taliban?

that now was the time to get involved? besides you see us, we did, we actually caused this chaos that we're seeing on the screen, j 100 percent. i think it is fair to say that if we still had a $100000.00 chosen gas them to tell by without taking over. but that's been true now for 20 years that we have, we have more than a 100000 us soldiers who retired rep can stand with permanent brain injury injury that you can actually it's so bad that you can actually see it on a brain scan. that's how bad it is. we've lost 2000 plus troops or allies, the last $500.00 plus troops in the country. and we spent 2 trillion dollars that's do the math and you'll find at $6000.00 for every single human being in the united states. very little which actually reach the african people by the way. so at some point you have to say, that's the choice. are we going to remain there indefinitely for whatever reason you want to conjure up, or we going to leave. and after 20 years we've left choice. congress and grayson. i

mean, i know that's a sad day today and the fact of everything going on. but i know this is something that you would have wished would have been 20 years ago. i know a lot of families wish it would've happened 20 years ago. thank you so much for joining us. thank you to now when we return, president trump wanted to pull out completely out of afghanistan was unsuccessful. and he had democrats are saying that failure in the region today, the large part of the deal made by the former administration. we will give you the $360.00 view after the break, the local news

driven by dreamer shape those in me. i think we dare to ask oh

i use my recent studies, 90 percent of all the my print thing for all the different programs never leaves wall. right. so it just stays on walter till saying here's an infrastructure bell, roads, tunnels, bridges, and they the 2000 and paper bill, they numerated all the things where this one is supposed to go. and then they pass the bell. then they authorize the money to be printed and then they sent it for distribution to wall street. they want braces on a be see that very clearly the money philosophy charge,

which is always going toward 0. they never goes anywhere. assisted on wall street balance sheet and they use it to buy expensive property name. and that's been the story now for more than 20 years. the as we continue our coverage, as the events unfolding in afghanistan, we'll take a look at the transition of power in the country since your surveys in 2001 on june at 2002, how many cars i is picked to head. africana stands transitional government cars i who with the help of the united states in britain, returned african a stand from pakistan after the 911 attacks to organized resistance to the taliban on january 2004 with the backup of the us. an assembly of a $502.00 african delegates agreed on a constitution for i get a stand and create a framework for national elections. on october 2004 cars,

i become see 1st democratically elected president of afghanistan cars. i went with a 55 percent of the vote. cars i election victory is hit by accusations of fraud by his opponents. he went again in august of 2009, after more than 2 months of uncertainty followed a disputed presidential election. the election which period cars i against top contenders. abdul, abdullah and ash raf ghani was flawed by fraud allegations under international pressure cars. i agreed to run off a vote. but a week before the run off cars, i main rival, abdul pulls out and cars i is declared the winner during his 2nd term car's age relationship with nato and the united states becomes increasingly strained. and he has been accused several times of corruption. just like in the united states,

the president can serve only 2 terms in office, and in september of 2014, i sure off connie, the newly elected president, signed a power sharing agreement with his chief opponent, abdulla dula, who had organized thousands of protesters as he challenged the voting results. despite the truce, the power struggle between ghani and abdul gives taliban strategic advantage. as they start making gains in the countryside. throughout presidency, the taliban were able to strengthen their presence inside afghanistan. in 2017. the u. s. drops on the taliban. a 21000 pound bomb, nicknamed the mother of all bombs. but it doesn't stop militant from growing stronger. eventually, they become so powerful. that ghani was shut out of peace talks between the us and the taliban. in september of 2019, in august of 2021. president ghani once promised to rebuild. afghanistan fled the

country. within hours of the taliban entering the country's capital, leaving behind a legacy of unfulfilled promises. following the fall of cable and 2021 cars, i decided to remain in couple but his daughters and he appealed to the taliban to respect his life and that of his family as well as the civilians in afghanistan, the body ministration is defending its actions. afghanistan, saying its hands were tied by the previous, the ministrations deals that they made with the taliban. now is that a fair claim? as the trump camp is deemed the fall of couple the saigon on steroids and a desperate rush to flee. i want to get 360 view with our panel chat, rochelle african and stan veteran and founder of the mighty oak foundation and ed martin present as phyllis schafer, eagles, and publisher of eagle action report. thanks for joining me, gentlemen. thank you. thank you. chad. i want to start with you, 1st of all, thank you so much for your service to our country. i really appreciate that. and

you as a veteran, you spent time and i guess, and i assume what does looking at the pictures of the videos that we have seen over the past few days? what does that say to you? what is that? what's it, what are the thoughts that come to mind as you see the same land, but i'm sure you have thought it in the last fellow's fellow friends and brother and sisters in war. what is this doing with you right now? yeah, i did a diploma stab gas standards for a joint special operations command task force. my son did a deployment to afghanistan, so lots invested in stand for me and my family in a see this one for the just biggest tragic because of the nature of my job at 1st hand knowledge of who the jalap is and how heretic the outcome of this will be when afghan people not even mention the over spill of terrorism, that's going to watch me throughout the world globally. you know, tonight states, when i want to get that ad but i want for you. and if there's one thing that,

as i've watched the coverage of the past few days, it's kind of kind of made me kind of a little right red flag. i see the picture of men trying to get on the airplane. you see him climbing walls. i do have to ask this question, where are the women and children? very rarely are you seeing children on their and yet we're finding reports of these res games that are drawing up hit list of girls and widows that are being hunted down for sex slaves. i could not see this happening america because i don't think the men would leave their women and children behind. but what does this say right now about the people that are left that they're so quick to leave their women and children behind the houses at the mercy of the taliban? well, it certainly is disturbing. i agree with you and you sort of shake your head and wonder as you watch a lot of these images. some right now they're showing people that are clinging to planes that are taking off. i look at culture and ghana. stan is something very different than us. 8 and all of us can sort of comprehend, and i think we sort of have to, you know, kind of, as we're withdrawing from the country, we have to say, okay, we can figure everything out. i agree with you those images. we also only seeing

a snapshot, right? we're only seeing and we're not being told the truth, i don't think by the, by the ministration. why is it such a failure? look close, be honest, if you the debate about it would stay in more nod ended and we were getting out of the war. but how we left has been a debacle and embarrassment and devastating and terrible, and horrendous. and it's diminished america in the side of the rest of the world. and so i, what we don't know though is what the intelligence community tell god and why did biden decide something different? what's going on, i, frankly, at this point, i believe nothing that i'm being told by biden, or by the administration, because they're not showing the facts, comported with what's the reality on the ground. and that's, i think, a little the disconnect. i think most of us watch the videos and they watch the president press conference. i kind of scratch and i had, it seemed like there was 2 different realities that were being spoken of. maybe just because by didn't during vacation this past weekend wasn't paying attention necessarily. to the rest of us were being shown. you know, i do want to ask you on the, on this question for it. you know,

when you look at trump said he did not want to get out of afghanistan. in fact, we now know is commanders did not tell him the truth and they kind of led to believe that we were withdrawn when we really were not in that region. i think said, how do you think trump would have handle this, draw down and reaction differently under president trauma and i'm going to throw, you know, i'm with are that back to you ed? well, this i, this is very important. i appreciate it. donald trump did something that they talked about with reagan, they called reagan, a cowboy, trump was unpredictable. and the one thing he knew was he make a deal with bad guys, kim jong, on make a deal with people, he'd say, even the taliban. and you say, if you're going to honor a, you better do it because otherwise i'm going to come in like a world heard on top of you. and people believed it with by and it's been this sort of milk. toast mellow, laid back 50 years in washington mindset. i think the difference would have been that we would have struck a deal with bad guys the taliban, and they would have allowed us to leave in the way we could. and then maybe over the next 5 years at the dentist and would be lost, but we wouldn't have this chaos right now. look, we're very close to

a situation where we're going to have american hostages. and biden alluded to it in his speech earlier today. he said, we're sending in more military were ordered. i do get a bunch. it's going to turn into black hawk down where we've got 2000 marines in trying to shave 150 embassy workers and they're surrounded by the taliban. and, you know, across the world, taiwan is paying attention north korea, paying attention and saying with this back, because president and his team, they won't even know what's going on, let alone step up and stop what's happening. it's a very, very big deal. and a very bad day for america once i don't get your opinion on that, but i'll talk about how our president ghani fled afghanistan, russian. alice are reporting, he did share with cars and helicopters, full cash. do you think he should be held accountable for his government collapsing in some form? very quickly considering 70 as people now are being tortured and killed? mainly just for supporting him. actually thank you. should be you should be

responsible for every ends up and please to arrive. i think this, this whole area of whether we should or should i believe that is where the media media has the truth is we have or 1000 troops and app. yes. for state in the international, we support it. i live in nashville after national police and it was working 1st way for safer, safer because of it. so why did we need to leave? 80000 search pants. it's 424-0000 jeremy says 423-0000 south. why is 4000 since and after you see why we, why we say, we have to leave out if we in this war. let's see that, you know, i haven't been able to answer that basis right now is that you have to leave. i

don't believe we have, i believe we were participating. wasn't 5 industry. what, what do you like the rest of the international community was it was working. we also wanted to do the free trial, russia. we do set up a place for us. we still have our lead. i've got to get you on one little piece of political partisanship, especially the taliban, is actually still on twitter. the former us president is not that concerning concerning. i mean, it's sanity and right, we're living in a nation american nation where we have big tech and big media. big tech is trying to change our minds with neuro science. big media is doing it was about brainwashing and big government now is enforcing it. it's insanity, right? exactly right. and left, the only good thing about this is that trump is quieter and more and more people

are saying we might have been better off with trump and i think you're going to see the politics. and by the way, i look back 976. after the fall of saigon, the democrats were largely in power, paid a heavy price politically. now it was after nixon, so got a carter one of course they paid even more of a price in $7880.00. but i think you're watching a, if there's a free and fair election, the big big f. it's going to be a republican sweep next year. be very interesting to cover chad at all. like always thank you for joining us. well, there's been a lot of events going on. i want you to stay with us because that's all the time we have a shout. i promise. so this is a conversation and we're going to continue in this. she's asking us and as far from being done and as news can do for you, stay tuned here to our to america. gotta follow me on twitter at scott and few, he's a hash. our team engage is we will try to keep you updated on the event. now for this showing more much that you download at the portable dot to the app for your

water. i mean, you're, you're not there. you could give them the credit that we have for them to be here. they filter when reading the content, the delta games only take the very best of the best buy i when i would show the wrong, why don't, i just don't rule out the thing because the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves, well, the part we choose to look for common ground me

and i make no borders and the number you emerge. we don't have authority, we go to the back scene, the whole world leads to take action and be ready. people judge, you know, crisis we can do better, we should be better. everyone is contributing each in their own way. but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenges wait for the response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are together

in the, one of the desperate afghans who clung onto a miniature plane, taking off from cobble fill the ordeal on his phone. his faith is no, no, but someone told him to plunge into that the ton of grief to meet your officers fees or how i promising that have no friends and the africans who was before an army officer given lawson to feel the one of the kind of bond commanders who gave victory to me after on capital president, how does he pay me? i want to move a ah, on the hour every hour.
