the join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then in the, in the moon the, the u. s. c glasses out at this k as a drone try kills a town or enough dentist on and the fuss reprisal facade states cobble. apple warming in which americans were among the $170.00 killed shorts, a fight and called hall to discuss crowds of people continue to flock to the apple

desperate to flee a dentist on despite ongoing warning about the terror threat to us house republicans to mounting on to claim that's going to fill out the president, floods the country with suitcases with millions of dollars which they say what like, he's stolen from american taxpayers. ah . walking around the clock to make sure you never missed the story. this is already international from the whole team here in moscow. welcome to our program. getting started, washington's confirmed, carried out an as strike against the islamic state affiliate, which claim to be behind thursday's devastating power tactic cobble enough chemist on the drain strike was said to have eliminated an isis k planner. it's not knowing whether the target played a role in thursday's atrocity,

a navy spokes passed and said that we're no known civilian casualties. will thursday's airport attack left 170 people dead, 13 of the american military personnel whose death president by didn't vowed to avenge. the u. s. has also warned a father threats posed by isis in the region as austin citizens to stay away from the hub. meanwhile, the august 31st deadlines set for the us, the door from the country is just 3 days away. no. the i says, the center grip responsible facade phase attack has been active in east and i've got a stone and pakistan on the launch the suffrage campaign of bloodshed when it was found to be 2015 column break folk with form of security on this up, the pentagon, that's michael maloof, who says a washington's move far, the heightened tensions in kabul. i think it's too little too late. i think that the plan are different. if indeed, ma'am, was a planner,

that there will probably be other planners who will back him up and, and if everything is imminent in couple, it probably is already going to be initiated. and there are, there are people to do that. you got to keep in mind that this is one time strike. i know what biden said about getting back, but this was just like a rap on the knuckles that we know where you are, who you are. but it's, it does not take care of the isis problem in that area. and so you don't think it's going to make the situation any safer in these final few days. and i was going to evacuate people from cobbled. no, not at all, not at all. i think it's actually going to height intentions. now i think that isis has does have plans. they are, this is their moment. they basically are saying to tell him and you think you're in charge of the government there, but we actually control events and there's and there demonstrating that with the u

. s. military out of the way. now i think you're going to see isis k. now take a much more prominent role and this, this will test, this will test the telephone will, is in trying to seek international recognition, will try to actually stop isis and in some way or go against them. i think the battle is going to be on. we're going to see this thing disintegrate, perhaps into a civil war. shortly. western countries tied up on officials had given warning that a severe terror attack was imminent. but many people desperate to free, the country appeared to be either unaware, on afraid of the consequences. rows of forties have now been lined up in the streets with grieving families trying to identify the loved ones. well, i want to bring in now a correspondence where i gotcha. if he is in the afghan capital, i mean more i, i think it's an understatement to say it's been a pretty tense until matic. few days you know that better than will

a boss. what is the situation right now? while the tension is still here, there is this expectation that isis cave will try to strike again. security measures around the city have been beefed up. so the taliban has set up more checkpoint security checkpoints on roads leading to the airport. but that is only going to have a limited effect because there are so many roads leading to the airport form from central capital, from other areas of capital. more than that, the crowds are at the airport, haven't this, but they're just as strong. they're just as pack and they're just as desperate as they've been the up to the explosions. people disposed for a while only in some areas. but they were back a few hours later. taliban was also being carrying out as the para raids across the city door to door search. as we stand up to half half a dozen to

a dozen ice suspects were detained throughout the city. the taliban published the pictures of several of them saying that they were, they were planning on staging new attacks at the airport as i said, security. so the threat level ease is very high. both the taliban in the united states and its allies expect, expect the, i splintered. so i just came to strike again. especially given how much cottage their last attack caused how much may have meant perhaps publicity for them. this is exactly the taliban says what they want. they want to discredit the taliban. they want to get people on their side. say only we can provide you with security and we are the true gods people here. and i've got to stop. they say that the tyler bad news is too weak. it is to west denied that it has lost its edge. nevertheless,

the united states as also enact that maximum security measures at the airport. from what we know, brown several checkpoint scenario has been clear that people tried to get to close warning shots offline both by the taliban, by us troops there. flashback grenades, even gas grenades. used if, if the crowd gets out of control, but things that also desperate for ordinary people that, that includes people who worked with us forces with nato forces, with the embassies diplomatic stop. people who still haven't been able to get out, never might get out. they still haven't been vetted or approved for evacuation. they haven't been able to contact anyone. they haven't been able to secure arrangements for their families. so certainly with just 3 days left for people to get out of up get this done and. and the crowds, the queue, huge their ease, i sense of desperation optimally. it sounds like it is

a fight against time in order to save money. life that was more i got to purporting from cobble stay safe. the attack also left many intern with hospitals having to provide to make shift beds to accommodate the numbers. some of the patients all said to be in a critical condition. here's how one survivor described the devastation. then i had applied for the visit the poor and this invited us to come near the door . i was near the gate when the explosion occurred. i saw myself fall into the ground and you and i stood on by the dog, lost one side of my abdomen, and then they brought me to hospital is one of the wounded shots are still being heard ringing out in kabul. thought space has done little to diminish the will of many to free the country more. i will thing with crowds once again at the airport entrance to bon said to firing warning shots to push people

back from the american military personnel in charge of the gate. a witness to the bluff told us that desperation is leading people to danger. that was we feel abandoned. that's because all these people, those who are trying to get in there are having some documents that they can go. but the are the people like actually doesn't have anything. all these have been in the media is in the news store. lots of them doesn't have any legal documents that they are trying to get out. there are like more than 20000 if we can. but right now, this thing is all mixed up all mixed up. i don't know why the americans are not processing then anymore. but lots of people just like us are stacking and hearing our. and i know everyone is trying, you know,

just to get out of this country of this situation and run from taliban. so yes, we left abandon, we are left behind. we just want, you know, to get out of this country as soon as possible before you know the situation and gets more critical. meanwhile, state side, the faster to solve us army personnel, enough kind of stone in 20 months is mounting huge pressure, joe biden. and one press by a john list as to whether he'll speak to the bereaved families. the president stayed silent. the the the secretary of state is also facing flack over the crisis to republican representatives. i braced impeachment articles accusing i'm to the blink of failing to properly advise the president of abandoning american interests in afghanistan on the full,

out around the troop withdrawal has seen done the entire administration come on to increasing fire, breaking it all down for us. it's ortiz john hardy. there really continues to be some of the back and forth between the taliban and us officials over who is ultimately to blame for the security breach. you heard the taliban spokesman talking about that it was really the, the u. s. security failure. the u. s. was responsible for guarding the entrance to the airport, but the u. s. maintain that it was the taliban failure for even allowing i sisters to get through and basically infiltrate the crowds. regardless, the evacuation effort continues along with as president vine, and said the hunt for those responsible for thursdays attack the deadliest day by the way for us forces in afghanistan in a decade. president biden said the u. s. will hunt down those responsible though this also comes after just a few weeks ago. the president essentially lauding america's success in the region mission to degrade the terrors, tread about cod in afghanistan and kilo some have been lot was

a success. i believed that our presence in that gas dance should be focused on the reason we went in the 1st place to ensure afghan a stand would not be used as a base from which to attack our homeland again. we did that. those who carried out just attack as well as anyone who wishes america harm. no. this we will not forgive. we will not forget we will hunt you down to make you pay. so certainly some contrasting statements there from the president and pentagon official said today by the way, there are specific, incredible threats remaining in afghanistan, including the possibility of more attacks. now, whatever the outcome of the ongoing evacuation effort, it is certainly an extremely chaotic and messy situation. for the united states, and of course, for the biden administration, and president, coming under fire from republican leaders and officials calling for his resignation

and saying that he ultimately bears the responsibility for what happened with some lawmakers. he's been going so far as saying he has quote, blood on his hands, if any america is harmed or killed, and not safely evacuated or if any of this military equipment or weapons are used to harbor kill an american. the blood, it is directly on jo biden's hands. this will destroy what's, what's left of nato, because the u. s. has been so unilateral and so clueless that mean for, for the president i states to be rebuked in the house of parliament. that's the 1st time it's ever happened. joe biden has blood on his hands. this heritage, national security, and humanitarian disaster is solely the result of jer, biden's weak and incompetent leadership. he's unfit to be commander in chief. it is in raging, and joe biden is responsible. it's now clear beyond all doubt that he's neither the capacity nor the will to lead. he must resign, or to be clear, president binder remain steadfast. the u. s. should continue to withdraw from

afghanistan and effort that started by the way, during the obama administration and continued through the trump administration. and keep in mind it was president trump who negotiated deal when the taliban to basically lay off us troops as us troops were being pulled out of the country. and that evacuation effort, of course continued, and the overall mission continued. the blame game is in full effect, and certainly a lot of accusations back and forth among officials here in the united states, and certainly internationally with this effort ongoing. libertarian political activists spike cohen believes the president handling off the trip withdraw has been fought with plunder. bill buying the screwed up and has screwed up multiple times with this withdrawal he didn't keep with donald trump may timeline for pulling out and he didn't begin the process as soon as he became president of getting african american civilians out of afghanistan. so that when the troops left began, leaving all the civilians were already gone. that was the biggest mistake that was

made here. but the reality is there was no way to leave afghanistan without it being at least somewhat of a mass. this is the reality of what happens when you get involved in foreign entanglements. that frankly, our founders warned about 200 years ago. you end up with, you know, allied with your enemy over here to fight against your enemy. that you at some point created to fight this enemy, which are now allied with the fight. there's enemy, it's nonsense. we need to bring the troops home. we need to end the authorization use the military force and caught, we shouldn't go into war without congressional approval to us house republicans also to mounting onset to claims that off down the stones, i stood, president fled the country with suitcases stuffed with a $160000000.00, the politicians say that if that's true, the money could have been stolen from us taxpayers. the ex president denies the claim saying he fled with nothing but the clothes on his back on t scalable pen and reports. while 2 decades of occupation has wrought nothing but misery to most afghan, there's a layer that have collaborated with the united states who have done pretty well,

but at mildly to congressman want an investigation of osh rob ghani, the president who just fled. apparently he took $169000000.00 with him. he's now got asylum in the united arab emirates, a country known for its shall we say hospitality. it's too easy for officials to buy properties to buy anonymously. there is no information available to help identify violations. more transparencies needed afghanistan, former vice president achmed, via masoud, allegedly flew to do by in 2009 with over $52000000.00 in cash. he was eventually released without having to explain where the money came from. many former afghan officials have luxurious real estate in the by the cost of an average apartment. and do buy is over $670000.00. meanwhile, the gross domestic product per person, per year in afghanistan for 2020 was less than $600.00 afghan corruption has been

going on for decades and did not start with america. but rather than trying to fix this, i watering graft, the united states for gasoline on the fire. our biggest single project, sadly in inadvertently of course, may have been the development of mass corruption. once it gets the level i saw when i was out there is somewhere between unbelievably hard and outright impossible to fix it. this is nothing new for us aligned regime. the u. s. back saigon government in south vietnam was notorious for corruption. and that probably contributed to the overall victory of the communists. nice said he was convinced that mister to you had succeeded in removing from the country a substantial portion of south vietnam's estimated total of 26 tons of gold preserves form an aid sale to profiting by control of corrupt regime left vietnam, a billionaire outside gone and cargo have fallen,

but the usa is still as it's buddies around the world. take the cars on a family that rules iraqi kurdistan. the families spent $50000000.00 on beverly hills, mansion alone, the prime minister of iraqi kurdistan. a member of the cars on a family actually spent over $3000000.00 in a container casino in a single night. now keep in mind that since 2014, the united states has sent over $3000000000.00 in humanitarian. a looks like american taxpayers have been subsidizing the lives of a luxury for white house cronies across the planet. while the infrastructure of the united states is decaying and falling apart, in some cases literally and the u. s. economy creeks, we now have a situation where the government is handing out cash all over the world to notoriously corrupt people. i think the investigation is regarding corruption and janice and the american involvement. then it should have started in 2002 when the americans invaded and occupied at janice ban because

they brought in a way of corruption with them. very ordinary people have become enormously rich the previous word or 2, or just demand or maybe, or a strong man. now, multi millionaire, only 2 percent of the gets to the target population. most of the other money leaves that can need that through contracts by americans in foreigners or through simple theft corruption, a laptop with the still ahead, no job, no job, thousands protest in new york have a plan for mandatory cove. and frank seen says, i've got friends over new state of florida plan to fire health care. why? because you don't. hi. we'll talk about that. i'm much more up to break ah

back financial survival guy. when customers go buy, you reduce the price, didn't well reduce the lower the best under cutting, but what's good food market to the global economy? showing me every 1st aid on the alex summon, show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me hello. driven by a dreamer shaped by those in

me dares thing. we dare to ask me. oh, welcome back. new york state authorities. i reported the planning to pass and emergency ruling that would allow hospitals to firewall because he refused to get a cooper job. not a quarter of hospital staff that still hasn't had a job. now this comes amid widespread protests in new york against mandatory vaccinations. a week ago the city government mandated the hospital stop must have that needs to one dose by september. the authorities have also introduced the same requirement for the public to access such an endorse tibbetts, such as restaurant balls. jim not surprised me. the strong opposition to that move

employees at staten island university hospital, say the mandate infringe the civil rights. some of even formed account to movement called resistance. we spoke to john matt and doctor who is also one of the resistance movement leaders and to stephen wyman, i also dr. he believes that mom, she likes the nation is necessary, is a very big pro choice move and say as it comes to abortion. that's something that i can, that i can kind of bring into comparison that my body, my choice movement in the u. s. they say that this is a race that's not to be infringed upon. it doesn't mean that everybody's going to go out and get an abortion or not have an abortion. so for me all depends on your own medical choices. this is not a personal choice. medical field, this isn't something that medical field people need to be asking because people that are not facts are much more likely to harbor co,

secure and to pass on to their patients. so there's not a personal choice and you worse and it's person much hurt. anybody but you are the the sciences come out that you can still have corona virus, you can still pass it while you're vaccinated. you have the same exact viral load, and it takes years to, to acquire all of the ins and outs of what that vaccine brings. to the table, what might be happening? i have some notes, is a d as the body dependent enhancements. and when that happens, you have issues where the vaccine actually works, the virus stage and become worse, people are, are frightened vaccine and, and it's okay to be afraid. long term side effects of damage are pretty well known in cells. the effects, mental health, isolation and children,

especially it tomorrow, no magic, every single person would be got. so really this is vast nation donors going to be yours probably for many years. not everybody needs to get the vaccine. and not everybody has to refuse to get the vaccine. once we lose that ability, it's hard to get any of that back. happens if they say mandate the boosters will be mandated next. and then the people that are compliant that don't want the booster shot will be in the same position. i am by not having a shot already. it's the simple story of a young gun, her friend, a grizzly bad. but it seems to have caught the world's imagination, the russian automation, marcia, on the back, stiff competition from like peppa pig and sesame street to bid out in the highest, globally rated children's tv show. we went to the production studio where the magics made to find out why a call tune about a bass is warring success from flip books to 3 d generated cartoons.

animation has always been able to capture the imagination of both young and old. and today, the most popular cartoon among children all over the world turns out to be a russian one, marcia, and the bear. and it's made here in moscow at anna mccord animation studio. started in 2009 marsh, and the bear now has over a 100 episodes, several spin off shows and has been translated into 43 different languages. it is proven to be one of the most popular kids cartoons in the world. so let's find out what it takes to capture the imagination of youngsters worldwide. if you haven't heard of the show before, the premise is quite simple. it follows a little girl named marcia who constantly gets into trouble and her big furry friend bear who tries to steer her away from disaster teaching her some valuable lessons in life along the way. it's a simple concept 1st proven to be an international sensation. and while each

episode is only around 7 minutes long, it can take up to 9 months to make, but it all starts with the script that come with the crash you will need it all begins with this. great. and this is the most difficult part of the process. with a good script, you'll either make good film or not 5050, somebody with a bad one. a good film is impossible. the script writing is one of the hardest task . since we've been working for a while with covered a lot of topics, there is certainly a bit of a crisis of ideas at this point. and the good script writer is a hard to find as it is. but an animation is great writer, even rarer because we do pantomime there is minimum dialogue of that has to be thought out and every right or we have is worth his weight in gold. once the writers are happy with the scripts is then developed into a storyboard and a symbol to d ada magic. this process can also take several months. we could vertical slew the news if after several months of writing and rewriting, it all goes to a storyboard artist. he's like a drawing director, and he has to take all the tax,

visualize that, determine the framing, what the characters do. at the same time, he has to understand editing framing. everything has to be quite expressive. the drunk process is rather quick. although storyboards for an episode, it takes about 3 months. but in 3 easy, it takes a lot of times are produced. after that would take the story board and turn it into to the and the medic. this is basically a timeline where we put all the frames and it becomes a sort of 2 d cartoon with low frame rate. and then we put in the dialogue. we do the sound before the animates, unlike many big budget movie, through this record the x rays, she does several takes, which is what works then we put in the sounds, the music and with this model of the node we help screenings, we'll look it up over decide in some changes what works, what doesn't. and when everyone's happy lunch, 3 d production before the, with the storyboard complete and the dialogue recorded. it's after the animation team. this is where the magic of animation happens. all the scripts, the idea is the storyboards. they all get sent here and turned into something more

closely resembling the final product. and it's all done by these animators and directors. here they take the basic movements of characters depicted in the storyboards and bring them to life when you want them to record. first, the story board goes to the director. he then assigns the scene for the animators and gives them his feedback. and then they both play out the scenes. if with live actors come up with ways for everything to look great, which is fun to watch. they determine how the characters move, what pace, and then the animators do their job. so in storyboard form, this is what this seems like. and here's what the animated did with it. and here you can compare the sound is already recorded during the storyboard phase. so when it's passed on to the animators, they apply phonemes to the model. and then the animators go through all to make it to the scene. he can add a smile or frown. one simple scene, which last just over

a 2nd can take up to 5 days to animate. and each is just one of the hundreds of scenes that go into creating an episode. and then after months of time consuming and ridiculous work, the final version is pretty up rendered and finally released to the world marsh. and the bear seems to have tapped into something that children throughout the world can understand and relate to. and with all the stories it's told and has yet to tell, hopefully it will make these children better people. and along the way, leave some lasting impressions. not taught things to say it's not for now. remember the very late from those and cause many, many more stories on t dot com, check it out and see soon the look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders, given it by human beings, accept where's the shorter?

in that conflict with the 1st law show your identification, we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. the point obviously is to straight truck rather than fear i was like, take on various jobs with artificial intelligence. real. somebody with demon a robot must protect its own existence as americans love. fine. ah, this was a funny middle part of how our political leadership and our country, large understood the bargain. you get a whole and then you know, rebel right as the.
