[000:00:00;00] ah, ah, headlines this morning on all the international chaos and disarray a couple that was a week since it's not about the power and i've got to report lead to be closed for the next 2 days to evacuate. those already inside thousands are still desperately trying to flee through the country. it's only codle the slot, the devastating advance of the taliban. there is some resistance to these groups protesting the takeover. i've got women for the streets varying for the future under the new regime. the chaotic pull out by the western coalition also leaves and generous gift for the insurgents, including a devolved weaponry from anchor off anomaly vehicles,

the even one metric identification system ah, law for moscow. thanks for joining us on the weekly that i know the international. i'm daniel hawkins. welcome to the program of the taliban. sweeping offensive through have going to start to seize power has dominated on used line throughout the week. you came in, it's your defense. at least 7 people will kill this sunday at cobble airport. as large crowds continue together in a desperate attempt to flee the country, the chaos exceeds the fees and crowns have been telling from that is the 1st day the militant group out $6.00 total control over the country. however, sergeant in the us military, local media reporting that the joint airport will be 8 hours to graduate is already

made inside of water crossings. and i'll run body and surgeon heavily defended airport in cobble remains. the only place out the reach. and the only way to leave the country on the saturday, the pentagon said some 17000 people have already been lifted out, including around 2000 american. on the same day, the us embassy and cobble issued an alert for citizens to avoid the airport unless there was specific construction from the american government to go there. he goes on off, breaks down the last 7 days at the afghan capital was main transport up wanting to view as you may find some of the upcoming content distressing the past few days have been an ultimate exercise in white washing for the white house. the beverly collapse of ganawe's done following the us withdrawal happened as people were being shot, desperate of gunny scaling jets, some even tragically falling of the chassis to their deaths. and as

a curator in chief biden searched for excuses, and he initially went for the statue of limitations defense. we've all seen the pictures. we've seen those hundreds of people packed into a c 17. we've seen afghans falling. there was 4 days ago, 5 days ago. it was actually 2, but that's not really the point. anyway, it was the fact that service dogs booted planes and flew to freedom while crowds foot for axis on the runway below. and the us ambassador to the un didn't seem to mind. we are in a process of trying to get people out and our friends and allies are not hanging off of plains. there are many things that can make a loving parent to give away their infant child to complete strangers in military uniform. yet this option turned out to be preferable to having the baby learn 1st steps under the taliban. i've been, women, took the groups, promises to treat them fairly with

a huge pinch of salt to me. but to take them is a tool order, even for american nationals who were beaten and rude to the couple. airports. contrary to jo biden's claims, we have no indication that they haven't been able to get income through the airport . we've made an agreement with the, with the taliban as far they've allowed them to go through and they're interested in a go through. so we know of no circumstance where american citizens are carrying. if americans have been harassed and even beaten by the taliban, this is unacceptable. and we made it clear to their designated taliban leader. but joe biden is far from the only person taking the flak when i've got to stand collapse to us. vice president campbell harris went abruptly silent that despite previously heralding herself as one of the luck, a motive is before the pull out to date. this is her only comment on the evacuation

chaos. we are closely monitoring the situation and i've got this done all priorities to continue evacuating us citizens, special immigrant, thesis applicants, and vulnerable guns out of the country. the german authorities are scorched for evacuating beer before local staffers who risk their lives working for their military and up to that relatives of a do, each of villa correspondents have been killed by the hardliners as they are right now. trying to find the reporter himself. chancellor angle americo had to openly admit that the african nation billing experiment was i list suffolk, didn't succeed, and her to complex as we had planned. that is a realization. and the mid one is terrifying for the millions of afghans who supported the more free society. and who with the support of western states, strong for democracy, dictation and women's rights, and made important progress. prisons, foreign secretary is edge to step down as the media alleged,

he did not help. i'm going to interpreters for the u. k. army escaped the country before the taliban takeover and possible revenge attacks. and all of this is happened with smallest scandals like the possibility that the evacuation might not be free for americans. and amid all of this, it appears the u. s. leadership still does not have a single clue how to contain the fall out of this disastrous withdrawal. i cannot promise with the final outcome will be we don't have the capability to go out and collect up large numbers of people. the u. s. was caught unawares and i think once again, they have failed to analyze what the situation was. it really puts on full display, the delusions of the us, which after all has been in afghanistan for almost 20 years. consuming, according to some estimates,

2 trillion dollars. this money has not gone to the benefit of the afghan people, obviously. and this whole enterprise has been very bad for the american people as well. many us soldiers have died. the good thing about exposing the delusions of the u. s. empire and the neoconservatives to run u. s. foreign policy is that it's going to make them harder to continue. so there needs to be a lot more criticism and exposure of what the reality is versus what are the promises and the, the false estimates by us intelligence officials. hello everyone, however, was lucky enough to get an evacuation flight. we had from a german national, whose county stuck in the country with his afghan, the onset and i just, i'm a german citizen. throughout the day, i stay in constant contact with the german foreign ministry and the german ambassador to couple. and i received an email saying that one can enter germany,

only one is a family member of a german. my fiance is such a person, but she's not being recognized in the official status. she's a citizen of afghanistan. we hope to leave the country as soon as possible on one of the evacuation charter flights. of course we're very worried about what's going on. we haven't gone out since the day before yesterday since the taliban set up checkpoints all around the city. were also worried that they could find out that i'm a foreigner or that in the future our situation make it worse. if they find out that my fiance is engaged or got married abroad once we arrive safely in germany, will of course have no more reason to fear for our lives. we live in a free and democratic country. that's where i want to return to. that's where i belong. i'm calling on the government and the german foreign ministry to let us finish all the paperwork in germany. we have the originals of all of our documents in our hands. let us finally leave this caliphate give me and my fiance permission to enter germany. and swath confusion reigns at the airport in the city of cobbled

day life has ground to a hold. a local journalist took a tool of the african capital also several days that they call, we'll see the capital off a gun to some fall into the top. and it seems that the sales is quite sharp, that we are seeing you here. they're all clues. the bonds, the restaurant, the supermarket did all cruise and if you see this region here, it's a completely acquired read. if you compare it with us before we do a month before, before the telephone capture the city, it was a very rock city. it was the what these areas, in fact, the very russian area of call. but now it's like looking very why we will our majority. this person does not make a model in a press kind of fraud. i told the people and call them that they are protected by the ton of on w w. i'd also say that this, i'm thinking about leadership. i have all the to the fighters that they don't have

permission to enter for any houses or to any to search. i know how i did those they, they are not allowed to enter the house. has our inquiry on the government. people know i'm a year and a checkpoint of a ton of money published. i booked us with the commander of the check. fine. that's how they can shorter security, 3 people on what they are saying. what people call up, my name is above the rock mancha chime. i'm the much a hit in the land, the camera move, and it has been 18 or 20 years that we've been in the mountains. now we've captured capital city. i hope you are not set. and we have not great the problem for the capital people. no, i see the shops and markets are closed. what's your message to the shopkeepers and owners of the market? look as i do what a good will given them freedom. they should come and open their shop. there is no problem for them. is the fight and finished and have dennis that fighting has finished and again, this done, there is no g had anymore before this is gone. now we should come together and save

our country. this is one of the cobble international airport get lots of people just got here to get charles to get inside of the airport. but it seems that the security forces that they don't give permission to anyone to get inside of the airport. now i'm going to interview with one of the guys who is waiting for long time. it is good, but did he put in find the chance to get inside of the airport? so how long have you been behind this gate? it's been around 3 days. there were people that stormed the airport with a certificate for an english course. people went with electricity bills, but those of us with the real documents couldn't get inside. i have my special immigrant visa, which has been accepted and approved, but i still can't get inside. getting caught on or in the face of the overwhelming offensive. by the way, some people have been running across the country to show that resistance to the taliban regime in cobble crowds, not through the streets and out from the takeover of the country. they've shown that answers and slogans and code i've gotten flags that have become

a symbol of the funds. this unverified video purport to show a taliban fighters seizing us can flag through a st. then hitting him in the face. well women also took part in the protests is feared they are among the most threatened and today thought about control. i've got to start so to take over st. adverts, in cobbles showing women's faces have been painted over several sharps and be due subtle. this of also close their doors out of fear of possible reprisals. some local say women of practically disappeared from the streets with only a very small number, daring to come out. lot despite the tell about his promises, the respect women's rights. it seems. many afghans don't have confidence in those was we don't want to go back 20 years. they used force against us and broke our smartphone. and they told us that you cannot raise your flag. they told us,

go and sit at home. your women be ashamed. the one who fools to protest against them to show the world that the taliban government does not have any value. not just for us, it has no legitimacy in the world. i call it we sushi, spoke to the matter of called ball about the situation on the ground. they are in touch with me. they called me and they informed me that they should continue. my job seems to thumb that the taliban is perhaps putting on a bit of a p. r stunt at the moment the taliban saying that they want women to have the opportunity perhaps to even get a job. it says women can perhaps even get an education. we have educated women, we have women who can provide services, we have women can, who can be part of the economy. therefore it's only logical for atalla by the government. our, for any government to make sure that we take advantage of that. the issue of women has to be dealt with in the context of human rights and islam, of course,

within that context, there are freedoms. we cannot deny that from the women of upon this one. do you think the lack of resistance, even the lack of blood spilled, suggests that actually strong support for the taliban within the country. there was a little bit of both for support for paula bon resentment of how things were manage the satisfaction among racket rank and file. and the ministry security forces to not to fight because they didn't want to fight or something unknown be everything was defined around individuals rather than systems. therefore, the motivation to fight for a person or persons was not enough for the people to fight. therefore, there was no bloodshed. thank god. do you think mister mayor? the people of cobble are going to accept taliban rule? both sides have to come to grips with reality and naturally follow,

but will also have to come to grips with reality that up on the sun is not the same up on a song 20 years ago. so there is a given take that has to take place in while a possible threat to the taliban. the paragraph is forming in the countries north. the videos appeared on line this week of resistance forces gathering. there you can see the troops flying the green and white flags of the northern alliance. it was formed off the taliban 1st came to power in $996.00 and fought the group until the us led invasion. in reporting, the 10000 african army soldiers are now in punch. shield elyria is the only region of i'm going to start. i still contested. it was an outpost of taliban resistance in the 1990 s and was never captured during the civil war. also, holding out during the soviet invasion, panacea province is located with an a valley of steep mountains that form a solid natural defense. spearheading the resistance. there now is the afghan 1st

vice president more solid. unlike us nato, we haven't lost spirit and see enormous opportunities ahead. useless caveats finished joined. the resistance of solid declared himself have gone, astound legitimate, acting president. after his former boss fled the country, me the taliban advanced on cobble. you thought the islamists before and was also in charge of spying on the militant leading. the national security directorate and the key figure is helping him rally the resistance together. must food, the son and namesake of a prominent african wall or the post. the 1st taliban rule is what my son was saying, back in jude about defending his homeland. they're going to fight for the rights of the people. they're going to fight for the rights of women and they're going to fight for many other values. the church. busy and you look at you from the past to see that you're the 1st line of defense. we are defending europe, you're defending division, and i've cancer fighting, not just for themselves,

but for everyone. international relations experts we heard from war divided over just how much of a challenge the resistance is for the taliban right now. well, did you remember me seeing how strong this is going to be? but teachers a moment to sort of symbolic away because to try to bundle one control of the country, pretty much all of a condition school, small pockets resistance could be remaining there and they couldn't develop, decides can, can doomed in the short term not get very big but i think one big question will be whether any foreign countries don't recognize north and line any other resistance group. and to try and ostracize. and i'd like to try to been given that once to the concert district has a history of standing up against any kind of italian rule legged, with the soviets, later to the civil law. i'm the one that did

a good job that all those who are watching the on the rally around the literacy of i met some some who at the moment i'm given that to the vice president stared back and he's making this defined claim. he's going to be very, i'll on the mental in terms of goal is that particular opposition, which wasn't there pretty slowly coming together while any kind of push back against the new regime will face and extremely well armed force. they've thought about now is access to high tech weapons is awful worth billions of dollars originally gifted by the american army to the african army. the us national security adviser answered some questions about the arms that have been left behind . those black hawks were not given to the taller one they were given to the african national security forces to be able to defend themselves. we don't have a complete picture, obviously of where every article of defense materials has gone by. certainly

a fair amount of it has fallen into the hands of the taliban. and obviously we don't have a sense that they are going to readily handed over to us at the airport in photos that come to light throughout the week. taliban fighters have been seen for writing around cobble is showing off the new american made rifles at home, the washington state, attempting to estimate the amount and weaponry and technology, the full in the hands of the group. and to add insult to injury the taliban is also created a photo opportunity. one of its special command, new units decked out in us gear. we created a laconic world war 2 photo soldiers raising the american flag. the median jimmy door has some advice. washington on how to avoid such humiliation. he said it will return z r t 's going underground. do you want a u. s. intervention a military intervention? tell me about which country you want the u. s. intervening. and i think it's about, i mean, because a lot of people are saying we need to stay in afghanistan and help the women. i say,

how about in the united states takes about 3 or 4000 troops and invade los angeles and brings health care and medical aid, and shelter to the 60000 homes, people in los angeles. how about we invade the inner cities of america? and we bring health care to those people. we bring shelter to those people. we bring medicine to those people. we bring counseling to those people. how about we invade america? and we start trying to help america. when is, when is america going to care about the women? and, you know, one out of 5 kids in america lives in poverty. so if you want to help people, why don't you give women and children, plenty of women, a living wage in the united states, give them health care and give them an education. i radically, that's what the government up gammon ended up until we invented the taliban. if you took said there's 600000 according to statistics or 600000 homeless people in america. lot of those are women. lot of those are children. now if you gave them

each a $1000.00 stipend a month, a $1000.00 a month, to go get housing. that would cost $7200000000.00 a year. 7.2000000000. you know, we've been spending 2 trillion dollars or the last 20 years, 300000000 dollars a day to kill people. and then so the united states ever really cared about women. they could spend a $7200000000.00 to do or take care of the homeless people in the united states. give them a 1000, but they won't do it. so yet joe biden, nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, mitch mcconnell, all the leaders and both parties. they know that they're, that one out of 5 children lives in poverty in the united states, along with their mothers. and they don't care the meanwhile they thought about his political leader and co founder of the old gunny barava has not returned from it's so sad about affiliated media. showed him being greeted by cheering crowds getting off the flight. him kandahar brought out who was

arrested by pakistani security forces in 2010 and kept in custody for years is not expected by some to become the next leader of a kind of stock. while another and commander who was seed on sunday storming the presidential palace in the capital, turned out to be for one of these any of the notorious guantanamo by prison camp. which power takes a closer look at his and other similar cases. if the situation and gas than wasn't already a disaster showcasing the shortcomings of u. s. foreign policy and appetite for regime change. well, it turns out one of the taliban leaders who gave a celebratory speech from couples presidential palace was none other than a former guantanamo detainees. who was released as a quote, medium risk. guess seriously, of all the people, the us torture in guantanamo, this was one of the guys deems thought, really dangerous, and let go meet goal am roo honey. one of the 1st detainees at guantanamo in 2002,

he was captured by us forces on suspicion of being a taliban security officer. during his time and get more re, honey maintained, that he was called a simple shopkeeper who tried to help americans. so some 5 years later or 8, according to ronnie, he was released on the promise that he just wanted to help. his sick father won an appliance store and couple fast forward to 2021 and he's a taliban commander leading the takeover of couple. so either the us intelligence was, well not really intelligent and let a taliban radical pull one over them and lie his way out of the hands of the ca, or it was the time it's been and get know that actually radicalized a simple shopkeeper into a taliban fanatic don't for detainees were innocent. indeed, because he lived and got to stop and was captured on or near the battle area. he must know something of importance. well, apparently all the torture and human rights violations that get mall,

and other us detention centers turned out to be all for nothing. sure, they apparently got some good intel out of some of the detainees. but on the other hand, the ones that they let go went on to became terrorist leaders. yeah, ronnie isn't the only detain eastern terrorist boss. there's a whole list there is the 5 taliban leaders that obama swapped for an american desert, or these leaders were promised to never see a battlefield again. and that they would be held in guitar far from, again, a san, regardless of the circumstances, whatever those circumstances may turn out to be we still get an american soldier back if you seldom kept it period full stop yet somehow there. now apparently the masterminds behind the current take over a couple. one of them is even a part of the official delegation of the taliban. he even took part in negotiating the us withdrawal from janice. then earlier this year we'll see. then there are the

isis super terrorists, for example, leap in from us all, but daddy, the former leader of isis, he was captured in 2004, held in detention at a u. s. facility in iraq for 10 months. let go and went on to have a successful career and terrorism becoming the head honcho of the big bad, isis. he was a street thug. when we picked him up in 2004, it's hard to imagine we could about a crystal ball, then that would tell us he'd become head of isis. yeah. if only you could have seen that coming anyway land, then there's this guy who was a valuable and foreman during his time at the hands of us intelligence our that was the song. but if you meet talent inability, and now he's no less than the current leader of isis, replacing all. but daddy turns out he was using the us to get rid of the competition for the top spot amongst terrorist and other big wolf's. this is kind of beginning to seem like a trend. now, basically, not only did the us fail to recognize dangerous radicals when they were right there

their hands, they apparently even managed to embolden and help radicalized people who probably wouldn't have posed any threat if it weren't for having an encounter with some american intelligence officers. in the end, america seems to be fighting problems itself created and so many that doesn't even come as a shock. a we call from the collapse of the country, questions being asked as to how the well equipped african army was so easily swept aside. we discussed the issue with a panel of guess. so despite all of america's fire power, despite all of america's allies, the united states was really doomed from the very beginning. did i say, did not understand what it was getting involved in the united states culturally, was so ignorant of conditions inside afghanistan that we fought the war and the completely inept way from the beginning. this is the military blunder and the

history of a half the planet. i don't think any coalition company should ever, ever again, work with american. this is her teachers. you don't need to have the main to understand, but you need to remove your staff from an embassy and to secure a b s. and then leave the countries, but to do it backwards is completely in unheard of. it's been, has been fought. so it, it feels like someone has, has dullness, with no knowledge whatsoever of the area. a large number of african only people, especially outside the cities are sick and tired of war instability and insecurity . the corruption of the outgoing west and support the government on. perhaps it's not even, it's not actually welcoming this telephone or perhaps in a mindset that it can't be worse than the previous income. and so it was backed by the western powers. and without those factors in place, this rapid fall could not have taken place. you've got some corrupt warlords,

and you've got to corrupt government officials and business men who have their own pockets effectively stolen. the money that was supposed to go to supplies for the military and the supposed to go direct reconstruction programs to help the afghan people who are they going to fight for. they didn't believe in many of the leaders in the military who were also stealing. and they didn't believe in the government, which was in very, very corrupt. this was not planned. strategically has went wrong. if not, i think this is made. america is strategic. foreign policy completely irrelevant. and it's, it's just sorry, it's just, i've been sorry for the civilians left behind. i'd be sorry for the ask on people. it just seems pointless the whole lot being a waste of time up next thought he documented who takes a closer look at the tobacco industry and its promotion about tronic products. despite the parents ricks, the health that you gave us all he travels to kenya to explore life off the co askew title, will be with you in half an hour to bring in the afternoons,

latest global uptake. ah, the what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation, let it be an arms race is on often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical of time. time to sit down and talk you know,

when you go to deal with a 6 day marathon of creativity, a multi cultural festival, and the biggest variety is the competition for a few days. became a russian cultural capital. 28 categories. ahh. from filing a piano to the parenting and data protection night years just throwing up over the water where you're not there. if you could give some kind of a way for them to be here. they filter when read in or context the delta games only take the very
