fix it up to something terrible can build so of all ills or are we trying to mitigate life itself? i just think i was like i was just scared, scared, little girl of 24. and like, i didn't have to be so complicated the the, the, the, the, i was begging to go to one tunnel because what i've seen and witnessed in belgrade was so destructive to this day. i haven't, i can't sleep. today, we present the 1st of an in depth investigation into the victims of america's brutal war on terror. the line told by the us, pull out from a guy was a bag, full guantanamo detainees. shes the horace he into the had a sounds,

a woman in the next room that, that lead with my wife told her with a tip of my children to leave off. where do you think they are now? what didn't happen? like you took away a couple of to few to get access to cobble airport just days after it was abandoned by western troops. we see the terminal equipment shafted and destroyed in the u. s . retreat. all the helicopters and there are a lot of them that were abandoned the was to be caught various various electrical blocks removed. britton's foreign secretaries grilled by a piece of his handling of the crisis. enough gun this that and why he was relaxing on a beach when cobble fell to the color. bob plus the well, this is what i feel like the ice breakers allowing for the ice trembling. i'm doing

so good to see that to all foot in our t crew continues, and it's journey on but nuclear icebreaker plowing its way through the frozen northern seas. this time we explore more of the high tech vessel we meetings crew. we encountered iceberg along the way. ah, the morning most good time. good morning from kevin. oh, in live formalities will use h q this says they the 2nd of amber. the 1st with the us out of ghana, stan washington's now was set to review the failings of its rushed and chaotic evacuation. and t is said to scrutinize the horrific impact their occupation hired on the lives of millions in our special project called ghosts of all i

53 year old was a bag lives in brittany, runs a nonprofit, and doesn't look like someone who's lived through the experience of america's worst prison practices, but he knows about that 1st hamp i had to stop telling myself that i am the father that i am my son. i'm a husband that i'm a human being. i started to whole myself. what i had been told that i was, and that was my number 558. that was my number in the, in the room in may 2000. i was interrogated by the c i and the f b i and they threatened if i did not corporate to send me either to egypt, syria, to be tortured with us. are you with the enemy?

there is no in between and that dr. still stand ah, in. i think it's quite clear to meet the united states response to the terrible acts of 911 was vengeance. the war on terror is not a police operation. it's a military operation. why they picked on me. it wasn't just me. they picked on every one who knows if anybody prepared to hand you over to country to talk you through the pack sundays and the bill of rights and i'm my parents and i'm a deal national. they handed me over to the americans without any legal process for me. i was held for a year in 2002 to 2003. and i saw 2 individuals beaten to death by american

soldiers. these terrorists play by a whole set of different rules. it's gonna force us in your words to get mean 30 and nasty in order to take them on. we'll use our tools at our disposal, the boys a few bad apples. isolated incidents one by one. the terrorists are learning the meaning of american justice. to me, this place, the pit of my what me and i did, states was doing stuff. they were bringing people to this torture site afghans for africa and abusing them outside of the rule of law and then allowing some of them to go back home and they would go home and tell people what the americans did. by

the time i got to guantanamo, i was begging to go to turn on because what i've seen and witnessed in background was so destructive to this day i haven't, i can't sleep. oh i . ready several of us, sensible internal. several taliban members who now heads of various departments in the act and government were tortured. we were strict, we were beaten, was spat upon. we were humiliated photographs. this was taken during this period of time, they had a found a woman in the next room that led me to believe was my wife being tortured. they waved pictures of my children in front of me and asked, where do you think they are now, what you think happened in the night and took your way? and of course, what they wanted me to do was try and a confession that i was a member of the title which i was not. and this is i chase and that i got it. i

think i got it's better than a lot of the other prisoners. ah, ah, i me. ah, so this is the hon made calendar that i made when i was in school and i thought that perhaps if i counted the days that it will be easier. but when the days tended to weeks and months, and then 2 years, i realized that it was just futile. when i received such letters from my children who are very young at the time, it's actually made it worse to look at the calendar and start the count down the days my children growing up without me. and every day, without them, with a stab in the heart. and they would come sporadically, they had to be vetted and censored by the us. censorship. my daughter who was 6 at

the time, wrote a poem, 12345. once i caught official life and they redacted that because they said that has numbers in the numbers could mean some sort of a code. so it was that kind of nonsensical reduction disconnecting from the idea of being a father. ironically and sadly, but also my own personal faith in my belief in god my reading, the koran. and again on expectedly, becoming friends with several of the american soldiers who would bring me little snippets of inclination. sometime they've taken a chocolate sometime next week and a dvd player and show me a film like that humanity that i have never forgotten to this day. and i think i left to go on time to move, not hating america because of those soldiers. me

messages directly from some american soldiers who say that this has been a, a war that has destroyed us as individuals, soldiers spoken to told me that they cannot keep at night. so i am in no doubt about the effects of this war, not just on the individuals, but on the nation as a whole of whom the soldiers are representative. me has gone to the shop and unity types destroyed. the united states produced a senate to report on torture, but not a single person was ever bought for charges for these crimes. recently, i gave evidence the international criminal court for their investigations of abuses by americans enough. they will investigate to the united states,

the national army and the taliban. the only ones who responded by threatening the international court was the united states of america. they said that we will sanction all members of the international court. we will arrest any members of the icpc who come to the usa or elsewhere that want to investigate us. i think the united states of america needs to step back if it wants to help any of any assistance to the people who understand it's got in the position to negotiate those conditions. it has, it has been an aggressive taliban already made gestures towards russia towards china to have the wrong to it's pakistan with indonesia would be like states and britain in particular. i think that feeling very upset because this is a defeat. it's a military defeat. however, you want to look at it and that imperial hubris, as it were, will not allow them to say that we need to move forward and continue within negotiations that we began in doha, that they cannot be any more saber rattling. it's no good for the african people.

it's no good background assessment with a britain or america. you've really got to find a way forward looking to have more all the people whose lives was shattered by the us war on terror. so for now, i've gotten the sounds heading into the 3rd. davids post us reality with cobble airport and devoid of western troops, and under the full control of the taliban, us, how much vehicles helicopters, ma'am? a nation can be seen abandoned outside those once busy terminals. senior correspondent ward, gusty of reports next from couple airport. these place looks very different to what we arrived to during the evacuation that cleaning the plagues up. there's said enormous amount of work to do what with all the vehicles, all the armaments, all the ammunition that was left behind by us and allied forces as they retreated

as above. while there was of this tool as a person that is still being cleaned up. but as i said, there's a lot of work to do these evacuation that the pentagon calls the largest and most complex in history left a whole lot of trash behind trash wreckage. and they, bree the taliban command, that tells us they destroyed 95 percent of the equipment, stuff, and systems. they destroyed everything and destroyed cars. airplanes, especially the military for us are destroyed 100 percent. we asked the she the airports and once crammed into the back of a pickup truck. we got our wish. it was like a movie set, a disaster scene. our 1st stop was the helicopter graveyard. all the helicopters and there are a lot of them that were abandoned at capital airport. they have been sabotaged quite visibly. the wires have been cut various various electrical

blocks removed and smashed, apparently with a sledge hammer, anything the taliban or even afghans could use the americans destroyed. and what they couldn't bring themselves to destroy. they let use of the, the dog crate. the cause such as the on lot, you have yet many of the dog lives behind by american booth, but they were locked in crates as we had be led to believe. we will let you at the dentist, someone before the fire us troops have taken someone, had opened all the crates and left them with, with food on line animal activists of mobilized in the thousands, their incense that the american troops could have left behind these dogs, right there next to the runway, at the mercy of the taliban,

the americans live the dogs to get out from the specific places. but our teens are often called the in charge of those dogs. and to dave, they came to the port and they are trying to collect the docks and they are trying to facilitate for them and what they need to give them all we can say that these may be just what the taliban needs. a p r stuck collect the dogs and the move with the activities and reap the humanitarian glory. alternatively, they may have enough on their plate. she, the americans didn't justice for the helicopters and vehicles. they trashed much more than that. when i read the morning to the airport, so i saw a lot of destructions here many things who are distraught. i don't know who did this actually, american was there. we have got damage and the road on faction. you can see at the backside of me, it was also damage, but fortunately by the help of

a lobby made it and we might make it correct. the other interesting thing about the airport is the, the hundreds of armored diplomatic vehicles that have been left here. abandon during the evacuation, they used these vehicles to block off roads while the evacuation was on the way. this is passport control at capital international airport. this is the states that it was left in after the evacuation was complete for some reason, other than destroying or the military vehicles and aircraft that the united states left behind. they also did stored much of the airport civilian infrastructure, computers, x rays, cameras, even arrival and departure screens. here they saying it was the americans who cut the power cables knocked over the monitors, smashed windows and kicked in doors, even to the vending machines. why?

that's boredom. baths hate. you don't end the 20 year war and leave in a humiliating evacuation without feeling a little bit of spite more i'd gas d o. r g couple. i've got to start anew in just weeks before the taliban sees carville joe biden reportedly knew it was about to happen, but desperately wanted. i've got to stand then president to pretend otherwise, that revelation coming from a bombshell league phone call between the 2 ladies, which the reuters news agency says it's been able to verify the perception around the world. and in parts of afghanistan, i believe, is the things aren't going well in terms of the fight against the taliban. and there's a need whether it is true or not. there is a need to reject a different picture. that conversation between biden and guard allegedly took place on the 23rd of july, the african liter appears to have followed the advice 2 and 3 weeks later he addressed the nation, vowing to prevent further instability, violence,

and displacement of people. but just one day after that happened, the taliban took kabul, disbanded the police and the government, and forced gone to flee the country all despite president biden. he pink praise on the afghan army you clearly have the best military. you have 300000 well armed forces versus 708-0000 they're clearly capable of fighting. well . the assumption was that more than 300000 african national security forces that we had trained over the past 2 decades and equipped would be a strong adversary. in their civil wars or the tale bond. that assumption that the afghan government would be able to hold on for a period of time beyond military draw down, turned out not to be accurate and exercise and in

south delusion or spending allusions. but i did that, you can say whether or not it's true about the ability of the military, the military us trying to get to carry out the struggle as to say whether or not that is true. we just need to change the picture. if it's an amazing statement coming from to come from a world leader 5 and concerned about here is his image perception of buying. and that perception, of course, took a big hit with his proclamations like this. you know that there's 300000 african national army trend by the us. they wouldn't be able to do the job that they'd be able to hold on. of course, we've all seen that none of that was true. british foreign secretary,

dominic rob and other senior officials have been getting a lot of heat in parliament over the government's handling of the afghan stan, paulette, described by the opposition as the biggest failure of foreign policy in the generation. it is important for us to move what we're doing away from when did people hold them? i mean, i'm not looking to brush over this. i just want to know when you wet things, when did you know when, in fact, when was the last time a foreign minister went to a 2nd stop. went through beckers. i'm not sure i'd have to check if you'd like to know the busiest, very have to come back to very great what seems particularly random because high come us with reason is better still ranging the evacuation of german people through tashkent and it seems to be a route that works really effectively from germany. did you ever, at any point, consent or offer to reside? now i consider getting home with the job. it comes a day after a tv interview where he indicated that military intelligence failures led to the rapid fall of the country to the taliban in effect,

blaming the ministry of defense reform ahead of the army. hit back at rob, over suggestions that thousands of afghans eligible to come to the u. k were left behind and said the government had been forewarned about the situation. and numbers were a key question for what can we see? did the foreign secretary know how many u. k and 4 national long vulnerable people were still in afghanistan, which apparently he couldn't answer. confident numbers remaining, but we think that they would be in the low hundreds. why? 100, you mean $110.00 sort of area or do you mean under $3400.00? they will be low, hundreds 100 sounds that it could be $400.00 or it could be 10510115 . i'm. if i could give you more precision, cuz i would let me somewhere between 10500, so let me explain. k nationals. so let me explain why it's difficult. there are also questions about rob's role in the evacuation. he delegated a key telephone call to the ask on foreign minister to a junior minister to make

a call, which ultimately didn't happen, or rather off how often he telephoned ministers in other countries to help assess what was needed during the to process. but the foreign secretary believe the efforts in the u. k. much those on the ground who is take response helpline and the email address in your department, not even being opened. so the, the issue as you have a search for the door is that you have a search of emails including late emails and requests like that. but let me just explain the situation for the, you know, just purely transparency. we got 3 types of cases. they melting away to get, frankly, and countries that didn't use 3 different question question. you're going back to the question from that, from what i will find. but other countries didn't use one process, how career problems other examples they told me below, after almost 2 hours of questions, it remains a case of wait and see to discover if there will be any consequences for the

current foreign secretary. henry bolton, the former leader of the can dependence part. he told us that 12 questions are being directed to mr. rob big ones need to be asked to the british foreign office. think in this particular case, dominate, rob needs to be able to offer certain questions. and i, you know, the question is can, when he was on leave, it's not particularly serious question in my mind. he should have been it is that got to tell when he went to lee be sure to be know that is that. and if he was on the way, if he should have got straight back, robin delayed his return. there's a systemic problem. deep seated systemic problem in the foreign ministry that came up the question. when was the last time a secretary of state visitors done? well, probably never. and i know for a fact having worked across central asia for some years, the british engagement across central asia has been incredibly full. and for example, a few years ago, the ambassador to london, the republic of kirk, was complaining to me that anytime he had something serious to discuss with corn

office here in london, he was unable to speak to anybody but a junior desk officer. that is simply unacceptable. you're watching all tend to national good morning coming up, but change of pace. so me come back. we're continuing our trip to the north pole. no less corresponding to the voyage of adventure, of all that new massive russian nuclear ice breaker. ah hello, driven by a dreamer shaped by those in me dares

thing. we dare to ask me sometimes the simplest answer is the correct answer and a lot of people ask, why are these tax tax so high? why is the stock market so i and the simple answer is that it's a transfer payment. the federal government is transferring the paper money that they print into the pockets of the tax executives as plain as the nose on your face . and you can see it. and the numbers the the, the, the ah, i guess so it's probably a few minutes out and for

a spot of adventure it will big time adventure we're talking. icebergs are tick animals and it's all of the top of the world on our team. continuing adventure to the north pole, we're heading there, a border russian nuclear icebreaker. so in the 2nd part of his report, constantine rose cough braves. the cold meets the ship's crew and takes a plunge into those you see waters. previously, we're departing from the mascot. the whole board of worlds only nuclear ice breaker played. this is huge. i mean it's basically like a rebuilding left step in dark habit. nothing fancy, but it has everything we need. so we walk around the ship. i see radio doesn't mean that could be exposed to radiation. right, barbara anymore. so like a lot, we're going all the way to the north. now it's time to meet the captain. a tall, handsome man who likes to smoke is bite on the bridge while steering the mighty

vassal forward at the other 20 miles. it's the rudder, as i understand through a move through all the more you can effectively call the ship's wheel, the rudder above and it has automatic steering, which holds the ship's course of course. so this is something like an auto pilot, right? nice axiom of the bill that's quite an auto pilot. auto pilot is what keeps an aircraft in 3 dimensions. whereas on a ship it's just to show up. and then if i turn the rudder than it was, it was just a new course. investor will turn and adjust to a new steady cause, and this is what happens on a lower deck every time the captain adjust the course. the helm sets the large pistons in motion, which turns the ship left or right. the we were on the bridge interview and the captain and we were lucky enough to side our 1st arctic iceberg. let me shoot you this. back to the day. icebergs aren't 100 percent white. they have

these beautiful to watch sheet. they also come in handy for local birds and habitable icebergs. i can tell there are birds on just the fact they see birds which rest in the water. they use any surface that they find it. frank, an iceberg or ship. they use it to take a rest. after 2 days of sailing, we reach friends, joseph land, and uninhibited arctic archipelago which belongs to russia or to the northernmost part of russia and a last piece of land on the way to the north pole. so in advance, we're approaching the edge of the world. now the most dangerous part of our journey begins. if something happens, it will take days for someone to come rescue us from now on. we can count only in ourselves and our captain

the well, this is what it feels like. the ice breaker for the average weight of the ship hit the i see this huge blaze on the deck. let's get a closer look. they are their part or for bell or that are constantly working underneath the vessel. you might think data, icebreaker, ramsey, i what it actually rides upon it 1st and then crushes downward with all the might. and that's one. the propellers come into play. they help chop the into small pieces,

painting the way it was worth watching the ship break yards and pushed dry and trying to decide as mesmerized. it's, we're really both coming and intimidating at the same time. have a look at this. the wide path led by the ice breaker is close enough. as soon as we pass through in a few minutes or the hours, it's all going to be covered with ice again as it we've never been here. shows you who the boss is around here and i guess makes you feel small and insignificant parts of the ships start to cover with ice as we get closer to the north. however, the temperature isn't extreme just under 0 degrees celsius. unlike me, veteran polar explorer who we interviewed on the deck even refused to put his hat on the prison. it's a common misconception that the north pole is the coldest spot on the earth. it's completely false. the north pole is the middle of an ocean. the ocean is a kind of heat storage and as it allows temperature spikes frequently at the north pole, it's warmer than let's say in tango or mac on or who ends remains. the pole of cold

does not coincide with an actual geographical one by ascii has taken several dozen expeditions to the north pole. global warming, he says, is speaking. it's tall on the arctic and the eyes becomes thinner every year. however, he doesn't believe men made c, o 2 emissions are to blame for everything. but i share the same viewpoint is fine to also think that this process is not a reversible in its nature. the anthropogenic fact is the main way. what it means is that imagine for a 2nd, we'll switch to green energy and stop reducing c o 2 in the atmosphere. all the factors that close and you think this will fund these. don't know why it's coming up next. well, don't be fooled by his adorable look. a polar bear. we'll go after anything that's moving. if it's there time, it's midnight. but look how bright it is. it looks to

me. we are on top of the.
