3:00 am
a lasting peace in afghanistan, the us and i know we still need that. i'm a dunaway and as i have the news the do want to know weekly on r t international has a ton of surrounds called black hole, with extra forces as foreign countries, race against time to evacuate that troops on citizens to meet the dogs among the deadline. the, the extra security comes off to the airport was rocked by a suicide bomb attack on thursday, which claimed at least $170.00 lives, including 13 us marines. hundreds of people were also left injured.
3:01 am
i'm following 20 years of war and trillions of dollars on the veterans boys that i grew up. how the situation in the country house on proper hold. so paul, just even invading dana fan was a radius taylor. historically no one has ever able to conquer dennis. we're just gonna continue to make the same biggest states and we're just being used for the b, m i c and i it's sunday, it's our teams national. so it's the weekly our round up of the big stories of the last 7 days. thanks for joining us. well, the u. s. has warned that it's highly likely that will be another explosion to me. african capital within the coming. i was even a touchy blog thing called earlier this week claimed the lives of at least 170
3:02 am
people. a warning the following footage. contains graphic images the the belinda was looking to do a walk the suicide bombing happened on entrance to the. c port where afghans were waiting in line to be processed to fly out the blast tool through the crowd and bodies were thrown into a nearby to a drain. people had been messing up the fight for days, trying to flee the taliban. ortiz moore, at god's reports from the tragedy torn capitol, anti terror raids across the city are continuing. security measures have been
3:03 am
beefed up as not as much as they can be. so the taliban is still conducting door to door searches, anti terror rates across the see if you trying to identify to detain that catch more isis, members from off a dozen to a dozen ice supporters were detained, arrested around couple, 3 of them had the pictures published by the taliban and the taliban is promising to put a stop to, to stamp out to put an end to ices presence here in capital around of gotten this done. but this is something they say they will only be able to do once the united states leaves. so the threat level is, is very high. both the taliban in the united states and the allies expect the expect the i splinter. so i just came to strike again, especially given how much cottage their last attack caused perhaps publicity for them. this is exactly the taliban says what they want. they want to discredit the
3:04 am
taliban and they want to get people on their side plates. only we can provide you with security as we are the true gods people here. and i've got to stop. they say that the taliban is is too weak. it is to westernize that it has lost its edge. nevertheless, the united states as also acted maximum security measures at the airport around several checkpoints, in area has been clear that people tried to get to close. warding shots are flawed both by the taliban, by us troops. that flashback grenades, even gas grenades. if the crowd gets out of control, but things are also desperate for ordinary people. there that includes people who work with us forces with nato forces, with the embassies diplomatic stuff. 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
3:05 am
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. we spoke to ali her sony who was in a couple of port when the tragedy struck to dave into the airport of cobbled i was in standing on to get i will need to get in and they used to sort of like 5 minutes away. i just saw there was like 45 minutes. they had and they had to when they was looking look dash c. p will renew, desertion, parliament. different of them did the type of type of good. they're waiting. we're looking, we're suspicious. they didn't have gems, but they was looking for the airport. they was looking to be used to a 100 mentors when they get back to my line, when they get back to the learners with the people that are wanting or community
3:06 am
exclusion happen when they began. it was near near the lake 1st in that way an accident happened. didn't go on 1st of the year, the gun for the victim, the $78.00 me. the guy was and it came when they get to the line, they used to say it. i think the guys that there was behind the use of looking guns. i mean your camera after the used through they call the people that stay away . stay away with the people that didn't. they told me they are joking because they did these things. money pants, it was always didn't get service and then the used tubing gas doesn't smoke when the people the day you know, the to like 6 to 7 people. the people who really need to get the job. i saw there was like 5 to take form in danger. the 1st was born in think it was going when the
3:07 am
grounds, the talk to the left. hundreds of people injured with men, you need to hospital treatment number remain in a critical condition. we spoke to one survivor who described what happened i had applied for the visit the poor and invited us to come near the door. i was near gate when the explosion occurred. i saw myself fall into the ground and when i stood up, i told the dog lost one side of my abdomen and then they brought me to hospital in one of the wounded b i splinter group behind the state. the tank has been active in eastern afghanistan and pakistan and launched 8 salvage campaign of bloodshed when it was founded in 2015. with more details, his equal channels, the dreaded name of ice. it had all but vanished from international headlines. but now, amid the afghan power vacuum, the terror group has apparently struck again the double strike right outside couple, airport killed dozens. american politicians had been warning,
3:08 am
an attack was inevitable, but to no avail. every day were on the ground is another day. we know that ice case seeking to target the airport attack both us and allied forces and innocent civilians. as we conduct these operations, we are sustaining the highest level of vigilance for an attack against the airport by isis k or another terrorist group, or commanders on the ground have taken every step they can to prepare for such an attack. isis k is an african offshoot of the same, the tory as his law. me state terror group. it's based in correson. hence the letter k in the abbreviation with over 2000 g. hardy's committed to its terrible cause. the group targets have ghana stones most vulnerable the
3:09 am
the if you think this may have been isis case law strike at the exiting foreign troops before a happy union with the taliban? well think again. the 2 groups are sworn enemies with the taliban just not radical enough. in the eyes of isis k, the islamic emory strongly condemns the bombing targeting civilians at coco airports. the explosion took place in an area where us forces are responsible for security. the bottom line is isis k presents a massive security and reputational challenge for the taliban. given the talent
3:10 am
attempts to look more civil, humane and legitimate, we could conceivably soon see. i mean, strangers, it sounds a taliban lead anti terrorist operation, or isis k might become the perfect pretext for the us to negotiate at least some presents in talib, uncontrolled of ghana. and we did hear about this group, for example, and i believe, april 2017. when trump and essentially authorized the pentagon to drop the mother of all bombs in eastern afghanistan, i believe in the non ga har province on isis k. but the roots of this group and its existence is poorly understood. and of course, when we hear these press briefings at the pentagon, there's very little context. this group actually is a direct by product of the us invasion and occupation of afghanistan. it grew out of the pockets, donnie taliban, who were disgruntled tally bon members who wanted to carry out attacks on us
3:11 am
targets inside pakistan and afghanistan. one of their most spectacular attacks was on camp camp chapman, the u. s. military base where they used a c. i turn coat to attack us soldiers. there are several other attacks on american assets, and this all led to a rise of terrorism inside pocket st on directly related to the u. s. presence and afghan. as dan, 6 years ago, the pakistani taliban, which was widely suspected of being used by the african government, backed by the u. s. against pakistan, turned into isis k. as to clark accounts down to the august 31st withdraw deadline. if ation efforts continue with countries racing to get the last of that nationals out of those who served in africa all me police on the western back government also desk researching for an exit route. as they now said, persecution from the taliban fuller,
3:12 am
the group has promised if we think i'm going to be a rock cleave, video agency, talk to man who served as a special forces officer onto the previous government. and as a mom and i had always wanted to join the military. and so when i graduated from school, i did. and i received training at the academy of special forces in cobble. our unit was deployed to areas where there was fierce fighting police officers would call us in as reinforcements when under heavy fire. and it looks like we don't have a future now that the government has fallen. i call on the islamic emerett to establish a stable all inclusive government. as soon as possible, we must all shake hands now and rebuild our country on our road. the biggest concern i have is my children. we studied, we got some education, but what will happen now if the situation continues like this, it will all be hopeless if the government employees don't go back to work the future, the country will be in peril. currently, the universities and schools are closed and we are concerned about our children's
3:13 am
future being caught in the 13 marines killed in thursday's attack. what the foster deaths of us personnel, enough kind of storm in 18 months, and one of the largest daily death tolls in a decade. it's seen on the veterans voicing that anger at how the current situation has played out. we heard from 2 ex servicemen the real failure of this war enough can expand or whatever you want to call it. a conflict was explicitly pointed out in the papers where a lot of generals basically spoke about the fact that there was no mention. they had no mission, they didn't know what they were doing there, and they didn't know what they were going to do in the future anyway. so yeah, so of course i think, i think not pulling out of just even invading up. dennis sam was a radius taylor. historically no one has been ever able to conquer up down. people are offset with people. i talked to r a re it's completely botched. there is no. ready political will,
3:14 am
and there is still americans trapped in afghanistan and still haven't been able to get to and as far as lessons learned from, i mean other previous words. i mean, if we haven't learned from vietnam, if we didn't learn from, you know, from iraq and early to thousands. i mean, we're just gonna continue to make the same big mistakes because we're not the ones that are pocketing the mit. and we're just being used for the will, the mit and that's and that's what i say about that. i says k is not the only faction capable of carrying out thought to tax box the warning for me off down national resistance front which controls the punk kid valley and area now seen as the heartland of the tunnel position. its foreign relations head believe the terror threat in the country right now was even higher than it was 20 years ago. a warning are all graphic images i had it could be, i says k, but we think there are, there are other elements. 1 plan the attacks might have perpetrated such attacks
3:15 am
against us soldiers and was a terrorist attack on the watch of the taliban. a group that says we are able to provide security. and now in one day we see numerous terrorist attacks happening on the watch. unfortunately, international terrorism and sun as much stronger compared to 2001. this is something that the national resistance front of afghan as on, has been saying for the past year. we believe the international community should help our efforts to combat to national terrorism enough again in the doing the to the international community, abandon the dentist, them. and we saw how, again it became a haven for terrorists groups. this will happen if the international community abandons african, it's into 2021. there's no posed threats towards everyone. no one is an exempt. and terrorism is after every state,
3:16 am
whether it's part of the western world or the eastern or just from either the taliban is still viewed as a terrorist organization. by most countries, it spokesperson outlined their objectives to us. now that they've seized back power, the me, sorry, really sorry about what happened, a couple add port for our part. we've taken measures to avoid these unwanted events . of course, the responsibility lies with the americans. they tell people to gather the field, they say we will take you out. there was hustle and bustle. the americans opened fire people. many were trampled and crushed. many died by august the 31st. the americans must have played the evacuation of their employees. a mo maitland that's for the pansies hair. it's not a big problem. there were only 2 people to who would like to continue the war umbrella and afterward my suit. we've repeatedly appealed to must do to resolve the
3:17 am
existing problems through negotiations. and there is no need for a military confrontation, we've not received an answer to our calls, and that's not a problem either. or i'm forced as a station nearby pension here to keep the situation under control more and believe the current situation is entirely dependent on the afghans and no one else. you are not going to become a threat to the states. boring us using the g o strategic factor. we have good relations with tajikistan is back as time to minutes time packets on iran, china. i can assure our neighbors that they should not fear any threats, harm or damage from our territory. the belly online has the drugs we have a far reaching plan to prevent drug production. currently, about 3000000 afghans rejected drugs. this is this side phenomenon for us will try to nullify the cultivation and production of drugs in 2001 the cultivation and
3:18 am
production of opiates would not eradicated work in this direction as well. in some provinces, the sewing and collection of drugs is still ongoing. and here we need cooperation not only with the countries the region, but also with other interested in them. still ahead, painful reminders of the past week. unique's approach that whistle blowing archives on afghanistan to re expose a multitude of problems over the years. we think us lead mission was all the details on not more of the so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have is crazy. plantation let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally,
3:19 am
i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk rather driven by a dreamer shaped by the control center. those in me dares think we dare to ask me. ah
3:20 am
ah, hello again. now as the crisis, enough time san unfolds wiki leaks is drawing attention to pos revelations about america's longest war and a series of twitter post the organisation republish, classified us documents, which it fos, neat to public a decade ago. now back then wiki leak found a jewelry song warned, but the u. s. intervention would be an endless war. beneficial to meet a few. don't a quarter picks up the story. the swift fall of the afghan capital cast a dark shadow over every sacrifice made in the fight against the taliban. but there is a man who tried to stop things from going down this road. his name is julian, a son. she is the co founder of wiki leaks, and behind one of the biggest revelations in u. s. military history. in 2010, the whistleblower group released the afghan papers for the 91000 leak reports that
3:21 am
shed light on the grim affairs. the u. s. was for understandable reasons hesitant to share with the public the unvarnished ground level picture of the word of god to stand. that is in many respects more green than the official betrayal of the biggest leagues in u. s. military history. a devastating portrait of the failing war in afghanistan. when these reports came into the public eye, washington's reaction was not to say, sorry, or even to try to deflect a guilt. instead, it shifted the blame on 2 songs, calling him a criminal for apparently putting american lives in danger. what he likes, walks like a hostile intelligence service and talks like a hostile intelligence service. it is an attack on the international community.
3:22 am
julius, i'm using asian terrorism. he should be treated as an enemy combatant. so a sounds put american lives in danger when he showed the world how us soldiers actually killed innocent people, how publications documented their involvement in a case by case level in the death more than 20000 people in africa. and more than a 108000 people in iraq. and so when you want to distract from this, you just make the same accusation to the, to the person that is making accusation against you. what do you, leaks determined that the 2006 operation medusa resulted in one of the highest civilian death tolls of the war? despite the shocking circumstances surrounding the event, it was poorly investigated. an american soldier was killed. they called in an ac 130 gunship. this is a c 130 cargo, refitted with canons on the side. it circled overhead and rained down shells,
3:23 am
the warlock, se $181.00 enemy were killed. the logs also say there were no wounded or captured. it was a significant massacre. the afghan papers go on to suggest that the cover ups began with those actually carrying out the slaughter us soldiers reporting on their own actions appear to lump civilian deaths with the number of insurgency had killed. wiki leaks revelations also shed light on special task force, 373, and a lead unit task with hunting down taliban leaders. many times though, they were involved in the killing of civilian men, women, and children, and washington later trying to water down the situation with misleading information about what happened. one example of this was when the task force fired rockets at a compound quoting nefarious activity there. but it was apparently not the case. it does appear to be evidence of all crimes in this material. example is the task force free 73 high miles missile strike on
3:24 am
a house which killed 7 children. nato later recognized the children's deaths they had caused, but said that initially they had no idea they were there. the colossal price american taxpayers paid needless suffering caused the fall of a corrupt, failed state. why did all this continue for so long? one answer is gigantic profits for giants of the military. industrial complex with stock returns from 2001 to 20. 21. for government contracted companies like lockheed martin and northrop grumman totaling more than 1000 percent. it's one of many, seemingly inevitable consequences of what a sons' claimed is money making scheme of endless war to wash money out of a way to the base of europe. back
3:25 am
into ahead of that in the goal. my goal is to have in no wonder the west may want to bury the truth and condemn julian a song whose fate is still hanging in the air as he faces 175 years in prison. if extradited from a u. k. jail cell to the united states. the scale of america's problems in afghanistan has been revealed in 20 deep classified documents published by the us national security archive. one shows how she is work consistently until the brittany, hidden from the public. back in 2002, then defense secretary donald rumsfeld was worried. the mission was drifting, but he never mentioned it publicly. rather arguing that there was no point in negotiating with the remnants of the taliban. more than a decade later, an american diplomat had the same concerns. the 1st question of did we know what we
3:26 am
were doing? i think the answer is no. if there was ever a notion of mission creep, it didn't get this done. we went from saying that we'll get rid of ok the so they can threaten us to say we're going to end the television. then we said, we will get all the true the telephone works with then further to have in 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 you mix editor in chief says the recent events in afghanistan, the vindicate the groups leaks over the years ago. to supported by all the revelations that came out of the documents published by week at least 11 years ago . some of them, of course, went from earlier period ca, documents, diplomatic cables, military documents, it all pain the, the, the truth that drew a picture of what was going on and i'm kind of from 11 years ago. and it was somehow didn't register the, the ly continues, and that is the,
3:27 am
the most of pricing out there. 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 julian us and 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 probably under estimate did go into us the military industrial complex, the, the private contractors like dunkirk 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 corruption on a large scale. on top of that, of course there's a, the, the corruption inside the sun where basically money was used as cameras on to,
3:28 am
to come from the fire. there were no loved good on the fire or just to gasoline being pumped on the fire that does not create a lasting bonfire. everybody knows that. now it's all recap of the big headlines of the last week for those, for the latest on those. and of course, other stories check out, i want you to come to me 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, except when so short or conflict with the 1st law show your identification, we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. the point obviously is to great truck rather than fear take on various jobs with the artificial intelligence real summoning the demon
3:29 am
a robot must protect his own existence with the still large enough to satisfy the ambitions of jeff bezos. you know, it's that its tentacles in so many aspects of the economy. there's nothing that amazon isn't trying to get into to step by step. the amazon empire has extended its grip on the world that was like end up being quite like a dog. so amazon looks like monopoly trays like a monopoly makes money like monopoly behaves like monopoly. amazon essentially controlled the marketplace. it's not really a market as a private arena world where a single company controls the distribution of daily products. and the infrastructure of our economy is bruce the,
3:30 am
according to amazon or military mission. again, stan, we'll conclude on august 31st. we're ending americas longest war one phone. so who did a good, who would have thought the quote unquote a young girl, because i really want the proof for my you got to be of subtle companies, something you cut the cut over the whatever. okay, that was the 7th, not to get a quote to ship a minute. this was the right weapon against the right and the local. no, no, no bought it from but it was billed out through z o o z the
