6:03 pm
of the field. we had me the 2 meters when we saw people trying to rush the main gate and the taliban pfizer wildly firing voting shots even behind his back. it was a miracle that no one was hurt. there were thousands of people, literally thousands of people. many of them young, many of them, evidently trying to use the opportunity to get out of, of get a start. but among them elder people, people with families, children, women, but we're carrying, you know, baby's death desperate to get them out of the country. so so the taliban ease ease being relentless, very harsh in keeping people away. as we drove further away from the field though it must be said that they were much more ordered. shops were opened business. his, we're open people who are walking around with, with groceries, with, with food, with necessities doing about their lives, work, things were much less desperate. there was traffic, but it wasn't as it was in the early days sort of one way towards the airport. but
6:04 pm
nevertheless, things are very much chaotic here. people are still getting used to the taliban, which had barely a few months ago. was the a, you know, the fringes of the country. and now in charge of the capital, people are desperate because they can't get money out of atm, the bank to shop many, we were many of the banks we were driving by the close data that is promising to get the move and people be able to get money added to pay for their lives, but so far that remains only in progress. so the situation here in capital is certainly very desperate at this top were gas, you were russia has begun evacuating people from cold by the chaos stricken international airport for russian air force. planes are planned to rescue 500 people, including citizens of russia. valerie, she cried, and i scanned the stands former soviet neighbor to gk. stan at other stories. i, even though i'm happy that we're going home and children can do as for school,
6:05 pm
i went to same cry ship helping us in this situation because it's very difficult. now to get to the airport, what we've done, we haven't expected the evacuation to go this. well, it's been very good. kruthers. it's usually taken 5 or 6 days to evacuate. we were told yesterday and today we're already on the plane. saying i want to thank crushes president and defense minister for taking us out of the dangerous place and bringing us to jackson. they said us too many thanks to them. done me more american troops. do you have currently the largest president stackable airport, amid what could be the last days of evacuations from us can stand because the taliban, which controls practically everything apart from the air hub, says that afghans who gathered that should return home and say that they won't be allowed to leave any longer, while also vouching for the safety of those who stay in the country. so with the
6:06 pm
taliban men, no longer allowing the evacuation of afghan citizens, the children we see here, could actually be among the last to make it out of the country. american troops thing when detain them at the court while they wait for their flights. at his previous groups of african refugees who have flown, i still have reached find that the nation they have been transferred to us holding sites like this one. in the meantime, compose man who kept his office throughout the taliban. take. i said that the mass depart. you have thought of panic response in the hysteria that has been created around surrounding the departure of many people from up on the sun. this has created some sort of anxiety among the rest of the population because the country has been at war for 40 years. ironically, know that there is no war, people are trying to leave because they have fears. what might happen in the future
6:07 pm
. and they're also living in a country that is poor a lot of unemployment. so this is very good opportunity for some people that even if they were not affected by war, they would like to take this opportunity and go elsewhere. who's political course for the country is not known yet. that's why people are so anxious and confused, and they're very worried. right now we don't have any government or any course of action. it will depend on the behavior of all of on, on how they deal with the liberties of the people. what the freedoms of people need and have to enjoy their the women's issues, girls going to schools, administration being handled by professional and by
6:08 pm
experts. these are all the things that people are waiting and watching your news. women's rights are one thing and pictures and advertising's or another think. so the total of one have announced officially at least that they will wide by the law and sharia and islam has given rights to women. and according to this slumming sharia, they will allow women to go to school, go to work, pursue their careers as long as it's in the confines of the slavic sharia. it's very clear that islamic sharia has certain conditions, certain principles and certain guidelines. now enough kind of stand 2nd biggest system can ha, in the size of video agency,
6:09 pm
they managed to film the taliban, posing c weapons, and fake was they had been discarded by retreating. nato forces early this month. in fact, billions of dollars worth of it's anzuedo. henry and heavy armor had been abandoned in the country by the u. s. and his part in this video to show a form and a base there. and it's the pentagon rushes to retreat. the u. s. president says that america is on track to finish its mission in afghanistan by the end of the month and taught us superman to however, says different options. a currently being discussed. the tal about have made clear that they have a strong interest in having a functioning airport. we and the rest of the intricate national community certainly have a strong interest in that. primarily for the purpose of making sure that anyone who wants to leave can leave pass the the 31st. and again, with regard to our own potential presence going forward after the 31st. we're looking at a number of options. let me remind you that the deadline for the american withdrawal
6:10 pm
is the 31st of august. i can very my message again to the americans to evacuate all its allies by this time because they have the capability, they have planes, they have the airport, they must evacuate all the troops, and those people who are linked to foreigners. despite the regrouping well underway, prominent us politicians, i'm retired generals out demanding that troops should remain. it does seem that the mainstream outlets these people are being heard on, are ignoring, know the fact that some do you have vested interest in the company's profiting from the war that spanned to decades? john quarter explains continue the afghanistan occupation calls to delay the pull out of us led coalition troops have hit the mainstream media. when the decision was announced, months ago, i said that i fear that we would come to regret this decision. and we already are, this again, is there when we were there, we had the cooperation of the afghans. we work with the military. there are
6:11 pm
a lot of partnerships involved. this is a national security threat or these just a bunch of overly patriotic americans. it's unlikely you see the taliban victory crashed the prophet party of america's gigantic military industrial complex and the mainstream media often omits that many overly jingle western military officials have investments in that very institution. take former us general j keen. he also happens to be the chair of the company that produces humvees and sits on the board of another company that produces military equipment. so wouldn't you know, he thinks it was a bad idea to leave afghan stamps. i think the administration made a terrible mistake and, and pull our troops out and, and given a talem on the opportunity to take the country over and, and now we're going to inherit the epicenter of radical islam, right inside of it inside about candidates. and it's going to become a more dangerous place. there's also retired us general david portray. it's
6:12 pm
a partner at a global private equity firm called k k r, which has assets in the u. s. defense sector. and richard hoss is a former white house adviser who sits on the board of the investment firm lazarus, a firm that also serves defense companies. and we can't forget the former us defense secretary leon panetta, senior counselor at beacon global strategies, hardly an unbiased party. another fare mention is florida republican mike waltz, who made up to $25000000.00 in profits. after selling a defense firm, which has offices in afghanistan. the problem is terrorism that happens and understand doesn't stay in afghanistan. we will see all kind of 3.0. they are working closely with the taliban, and they do tend to attack eric and former secretary of state condo. liza rice offered her $0.02 on y. america's longest war, not long enough. 20 years may also not have been enough to consolidated gaines
6:13 pm
against terrorism and assure our own safety we and they needed more time. once again, rice was placed on the board of c 3. a. i, a defense contracting company is conveniently left out of her article with all these powerful officials having one foot in the capitalist pool and the other and that of the u. s. government. it's not hard to imagine why endless war is a very lucrative business decision for some stock returns from 2001 to 2021 for government contracted arms. companies like lockheed martin and northrop grumman totaled more than 1000 percent. and wiki leaks, founder and whistleblower julian assange tried to warn the world about it years ago to use wash money out of the way out of the tax base of european africa back into the head of a trade that in the goal. my goal is to have in looking
6:14 pm
for some reason the mainstream media doesn't seem to find it necessary to tell their viewers that the experts they invite to inform public opinion on the afghan war. have a very specific agenda of their own. the course that will the scale of america's failure in afghanistan has been revealed in 20 declassified documents published by the u. s. national security archive. one shows the extent to which the calamity was consistently and deliberately hidden from the public. i can 2002, then defense secretary donald rumsfeld, was worried that the afghan mission was drifting. but never mentioned it publicly. rather arguing there is no point in negotiating the remnants of the taliban more than a decade later, an american diplomat had the same concerts. the 1st question of did we know what we were doing? i think the answer is no. if there was ever a notion of mission creep up,
6:15 pm
get this done. we went from saying that we will get rid of ok. so they can threaten us to say we're going to end the taliban. then we said that we will get all the truth. the tell about work with then further to have our exit strategy b. s. table government and again it's done. we have to say good enough is good enough. that's why we're there. 15 years later, when we heard back in 2011 june, the son just heard that the ultimate goal of the u. s. military campaign in afghanistan was to generate massive profits for american defense companies. wikileaks editor in chief told my colleague, call him bry, earlier today, that the new documents, steve indicate the groups leaks over a decade ago. supported by all the revelations that came out of the documents by we can use 11 years ago. some of them, of course, went from earlier period ca, documents, diplomatic cables, military documents will all paint the, the, the true, the,
6:16 pm
the true picture of what was going on. and i'm kind of from 11 years ago. and it was somehow didn't register the, the lie continued. and that is the, the most of pricing for, you know, about the, the current events basically is. and the thing clearly may seem media cars come to record with this. how was it possible for 20 years to maintain the like what was going on inside them? julianna's also said that the africa was being used to launder american and european money. what did he mean by that? the trillion dollar plus the trillion dollars putting under estimate did go into us or pocket the military industrial complex, the, the private contractors like bankers who were supposed to be training the outcome, police, etc. it was a massive flow of money that went into the wrong pocket. it could only be called
6:17 pm
corruption on a large scale. on top of that, of course there's the corruption inside the sun where basically money was used as carol zone to, to pump on the fire. they were no loves good on the fire, just gasoline being pumped on the fire that does not create a lasting bonfire. everybody knows that now the yes sir, your people currently fling afghanistan is creating a security nightmare for europe because among those fleeing, the taliban are convicted criminals early deported by the u. back to afghanistan, along with suspects on various global security watch list. it is a topic 2 that came up and talked earlier on wednesday, between the russian and austrian foreign ministers in vienna. slide kristin foster has the 2nd biggest community of africans in europe, much more than other you states with only sweden having more than us. i think the austria has shown lots of solidarity with them. now we have many problems within
6:18 pm
our country. we are not interested in becoming a failed states. we also don't want africa understand to become a tara base. we have seen how the americans have enforced their way of living on libya, syria, iraq, and afghanistan. they should mind their own business. i've listed for military campaigns that have resulted in nothing but a surge of terrorism. an unprecedented drug trafficking, while illegal migrants flooded into europe following nato's bombing of libya. the main conclusion is rather simple here, don't interfere and, and other countries internal affairs and don't use force in violation of the un charter. my with striking some of those security concerns in afghan national britain's no fly list made it into the country on a military plane, he was declared not to be a person of interest and was free to go in front. police arrest is one of 5 afghans with the ledge linked to the taliban. that suspect had failed to comply with his stay at home order. the other 4 are under violence, and then in germany,
6:19 pm
some previously reported afghans with criminal records managed to sneak back in via those evacuation flights. hungry, meanwhile, for its part is emphasized, it won't accept an unrestricted flow vasquez refugees and says to it won't let its people suffer from the floor geo political decisions made by the us hungry state secretary and that the chaos in afghanistan probably could have been avoided. what we're seeing right now in capital, in other parts of a garrison is frightening. and i think it could bring about an airing migration and international terrorism that we didn't want and perhaps could have avoided. meanwhile, hurricane has been reinforcing its border with a ran fairing, an influx of african migrants. their turkish authorities were expanding the existing concrete board of war to stretch them. 240 kilometers by the end of the year. border area is not covered by the ball. will be posted by ditches, barbed wire, and also patrols last week. president erd one more that turkey would not become
6:20 pm
europe. refugee warehouse says it's already home to more than 3 and a half 1000000 syrian refugees. turkish political analyst on the aaron told us that america is trying to pass off its responsibility for the african crisis to other nations. this is a world wide international problem just because we are the, the nearest, physically, the nearest country. that the african refugees seek refuge to doesn't necessarily should mean that we should be the only one dealing with turkey has been housing millions of syrian refugees. now adding more to this, it's really hard to bear with us is undoubtedly the only source of what's going on that can stand right now. they've created the best and now they're trying to avoid the, the, the costs because they have already started, you know, lifting out people afghans to african countries. and they have also in the past
