we debate the controversial reg d like, people can be anonymous on the internet and get upset. all sorts of criminal activity, closing all sorts of. are you brandy? almost an entire nation is criminals. everyone is a suspect and they are approved amos and ah, hello, good evening. you with arte international. now the taliban claims to have absolute control over afghanistan, after defeating the last pocket of resistance in the eastern time she had providence. although those reports have been denied by anti taliban fighters in the region, reporting from bull, his moored gas, the f. during the night, the city of cavil again erupt. it in almost spontaneous gunfire with a constant rule, most of, of rifles firing. trace around into the air was very reminiscent of what happened
3:02 pm
when the last of american troops pulled out of terrible apple the taliban, celebrated by firing into the air logged into the night. well, yesterday, as we fill matter up here, we had the characteristic sound a bullet makes as it pass is very close a leaves almost. and at that point we decide that perhaps it's, it's best to remain in doors. and we later learned that as many as 17 people from 7 to 17, depending on the various sources, died as a result of that gun flaw. yesterday the taliban had since forbidden firing into the air in full celebration by its side to say any fight that caught doing so would have his weapon confiscated and would himself be punished at the celebration was launched. allegedly because of the taliban was celebrating the military offensive against the lost hold. our province against taliban rule in
3:03 pm
a gun. this don punch ship province. we also learned that perhaps the celebrations were pretty mature because the resistance, those anti taliban forces stationed in pine valley come out and said that they haven't yet broken the dash still holding out. and the fighting is going the ongoing. but there are losses on both sides. we applied for contacts today that the taliban hasn't been tardy of the province, but rather several strategic heights and several areas of the proven they have launched attacks from the north, from the south, from the east and west surrounded pan. g o t has also spoken to those forces fighting against the tide about in pantry valley. and they said that while they were welcome negotiations, they are prepared to fight to the end. i just remind everyone, negotiations stretched on for about a week before this offensive began with taliban representatives traveling by trying,
3:04 pm
trying to establish a peace treaty, a peaceful resolution to this standup. but the taliban saying that the negotiations fell through because the demands that the anti tell about forces were making seem to them to be unreasonable. we had heard reports of them demanded 30 percent of minister post in any new government that is formed here. and i've gotten some, but again, i check province is the last remaining province enough guy was not on the taliban rule. the rest of the country. he's, i'm the direct taliban control. and the tale, uncontested. motor gas, the proportion from comple. now despite promising to get every us state funded journalist, i told the afghan, the stan hundreds were left behind. as the last american plane departed and all of those that did managed to get out many need to help other governments. the quarter
3:05 pm
has more because there are men and women in uniform. more than 25000000 afghans are free afghans, shanisha democracy. i finally want to thank the incredible work of our u. s. military who are doing so much to help bring about a more secure and prosperous and democratic afghanistan for 20 long years. the u. s . has tried to force feed afghan, a stand freedom and democracy. now they have an utter fiasco to show for this decision about that can stand. it is not just by that and spout any an era of major military operations to re make other countries normally have been trying to civilize the people who live there. although in essence, it means they have been trying to implement their own system of values and rules in the widest sense of the word. and that included the political structure. so it's the result, nothing but tragedies and losses on both sides sustained by those who did it. i. e,
3:06 pm
the united states, and even more so by the people who live in afghanistan, the the colossal waste of money time and human life have no doubt amounted to one of america's biggest defeats, but further muddying its reputation or the hundreds of employees of its global media agency still stranded, bare with their families. last year alone, the usa g. m state funded outlets like voice of america and radio free europe spent over $5000000.00 to win the country's hearts and minds. the organization claims to have the ears of over 60 percent of the afghan population as well. no doubt, cutting edge propaganda was just as important to washington as state of the art
3:07 pm
bombs, radio free europe, radio liberty mission is to promote democratic vail use and institutions by reporting the news in countries where a free press is banned by the government or not fully established voice of america will serve as a constantly reliable and authoritative source of news was of america will represent america, not any single segment of american society. and will therefore present a balanced and comprehensive projection of significant american thought and institutions. officials on the house foreign affairs committee, se the 50 usa gm journalists were able to escape after getting help from other governments. the state department hasn't even put forward a concrete plan to get its own personnel back home. it just relate a promise that no one has been forgotten. we did not forget about you say, jam employees and families are, will, we will remain keenly focused on getting them out safely. just as soon as we can,
3:08 pm
the usa g m spokesperson has confirmed that their people are still in a life and death situation. we've asked us a gm exactly how many there are. but reports suggest around $500.00 employees and their families remain a situation. republicans described as disgraceful. my office was working with one of these journalists and tried for 2 weeks to get attention brought his case. so he, his wife and his infant child could be saved, but our police were ignored. it's absolutely disgraceful. the us state department claimed they evacuated the local employees when in reality they abandoned hundreds of usa gm journalists and their families. a scrambled evacuation terrorist attacks a couple airport and a government that doesn't exactly love the us state department. it's a horrifying situation. it's a horrifying ideal. i mean, we've essentially our government essentially left these people to be murdered in water by the tell them these people were seen by taliban. they were us propaganda
3:09 pm
agents hired and paid by the us government to to report news favorable to democracy, to, to the west, to the u. s. government. and now we've just abandoned them. this is unconscionable . it's immoral. it's disgusting because the american people do not think of their government as a sort of government that would do something like that. and yet here we are, these sort of people who have been a top priority to getting out of afghanistan along with others who have been in the cross hairs of the taliban. and now they're essentially stuck and left to fend on their own. it's going to be very difficult to get others trust united government. but then again, you know, our military industrial complex of all the money in the world. so, you know, you can always at the prices, right? so it might step up to the plate and do it. well, we have asked the u. s. federal agency for global media to comment on this story. and we'll let you know when we guess a reply that people being left behind isn't the only thing the public spin blasting
3:10 pm
the u. s. for apparently over a 100 dogs, some of them used by the military were abandoned despite the efforts of an animal rush, she sent in couple to fly them out. plenty boy has the story. what's called the internet madder than anything. a handful of what looks like a band coaches. this photo have gone viral, purportedly showing us military service dogs left behind. on the tarmac in couples ravaged apple fog, a major backlash online with learning people suggesting that this image is a symbol of the heartlessness of joe biden, did during administration. but washington says, this latest pile on isn't fat. fake news. apparently, the caged animal was anything to do with the us military. they belonged to contractors and had been passed. them were in the process of being evacuated by
3:11 pm
a point, but animal shelter and couple called a couple small animal rescue sources for this or the pentagon. in the department of defense folks, person, the dogs in the picture are actually in the care of cobble, small animal rescue and animal welfare organization. the 1st casualty of war though, in truth and the fate of the dog in the cages is still a mystery. i was talking to ortiz, mariah garcia, who is one of the early reporters on the ground in capital. and he told me that it's still not clear whose dog stays, why and why they were left behind. the dog crate, such as the on last one kind of an official apparent, he told me that they'll retrain and we deployed the dog to work for them. instead, they're still running around the perimeter of the airport and the taliban. ah, the taliban has contracted animal control dog control to catch the. i know they say
3:12 pm
they haven't sentenced them to death. just like with the war itself. america just call when online right now. earlier in august when actual footage of us service dogs being evacuated from capital did emerge, it led to the comments that american dog lives were more precious than those of afghan human. u. k. government came on defy a couple of weeks ago as well for you being too slow to help with the evacuation of a 150 cats and dogs from a campbell animal shelter run by an expert marine called pen balding when one conservative politician you will. so happens to be an afghan war that trent was questioned about that this was his difficulties getting people into and out of the airport. and we just use a lot of troops to bring in 200 dogs. meanwhile, my interpreter family likely to be killed as one interpreter of me
3:13 pm
a few days ago was my 5 year old with less than your dog fat point. while the us is accused of rescuing too few people from afghanistan, germany might have taken a few too many because among those is airlifted. so far, 20 have to and that to be people have question including suspected terrorists and a convicted rapist is our europe correspondent, piece or role of and he was able to airlift around 4 and a half 1000 people out of the country before cobble international airport was closed that going through the process of identifying exactly who has arrived here in the country right now. while they've been doing that, while they've uncovered that, amongst those people that came here on the evacuation flight to germany was one saw out mohammed. and the reason he is being named like that is because he was very well known to german authorities. the reason he was very well known was because he previously being deported from germany that was off the in 2012. he was convicted
3:14 pm
of having raped his daughter over multiple years by a court in munich. now. he was sentenced to 8 years in 3 months for crime. he was then deported to afghanistan back in 2019. we have heard from the interior ministry previously saying that there was no way to carry out checks on the ground in carnival for exactly who was getting on german evacuation flights. some of them totally falsified their papers from a to said. there was an emergency, and cocoa and such situations are always exploited by criminals. for the german government identifies around 40000 people still in afghanistan that it says should be able to come here to germany. when you look at about 4 and a half 1000 people that have already been evacuated though, well, when it comes to the people angular merkle said would have priority that people who had work directly with german military, german, diplomat,
3:15 pm
and such at the $200.00 of those were on those flights that have already left when you included in the family, members of those people. well, you're still looking at less than one in 5 of the people that are already being brought to germany. having fits into that category that anglo miracle said, were the priority stop long and we will continue their vacation operation for as long as possible in order to make it possible for after school worked with us for security. freedom, the rule of law and development to leave the country. so when you look at these people as well, like the, the one i mentioned previously been reported. we had heard from the interior ministry that they said happened. the number that was previously given was that there was 4 such cases. well, that's now being revised into a well, incredibly vague. there's many or more by the federal police who are on the ground in frankfurt airport. you are going through the top of identifying people who come
3:16 pm
here on evacuation flights now. as soon as the cargo airport is reopened, we are expecting more hoping that more of those people can come here to germany. however, as it stands at the moment you're seeing germany having missed its target for people who wanted to evacuate from afghanistan by 90 percent, and also having issues with those who have been able to come here on the evacuation flights that have already arrived. meanwhile, turkey has reinforced its east and border with a ran to cater for the mass exit from afghanistan and new 150 kilometer wall. in van province is 3 meters high, is top with barbed wire, and his patrol around the clock still to come see the messaging service whatsapp gets a massive find from the european union over what it does with uses data back to the details on that. so the stories in a couple of the
3:17 pm
3:18 pm
the money works, it's right through the economy. those assets go up a lot. and this is how the income gap is created. the moon ah, well again, you will see now foreign diplomats working in russia, including from the united states in germany, a being accused of funding, political opposition movements. the russian foreign ministry says that one of the main beneficiaries was the 90 fun to organisation of the prominent activists. selecting the valley, konstantin, roche gulf. as more on the claims. these are quite serious allegations that we're looking at here. according to maria's harv, russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman western embassies in russia helped fund opposition figure election development,
3:19 pm
who is now serving time in jail after being convicted for embezzlement and reaching his parole condition in the eyes of the authorities. this, of course, amounts to blatant interference in russia's political affairs by foreign states and maria's harv. i couldn't help but draw parallels with a heated debate between russia and the us that ensued in the wake of america. 2016 presidential election following the 2016 elections in the us. doesn't. the freshman diplomats were accused of meddling in the election process and expelled without any proof whatsoever. i dread to think what would have happened if they had found a single dollar transferred from russia to any party in america. and this is what the scheme looked like, according to maria harbor, foreign embassies, namely the us in germany, hired russian citizens to transfer money to the val man, he's projects as a private donations, one of them. the anti corruption fund was brenda an extremist organization for inciting an authorized demonstrations in russia. earlier this year. maria, the harvest,
3:20 pm
says it's unclear whether the transfers were done voluntarily by embassy staff, who simply sympathized with nevada. the or it just may be part of their salaries, were designated to sponsor the russian opposition all along. what's important here is that for officials, the situation is totally unacceptable. and is a clear case of meddling and the russian politics. will news, in brief, nancy saturday, september has been a busy want protests around the world will start with london where anti migration and anti migration march was met with a came to protest, there were some minor scuffles between demonstrators and police for the posing march is clearly numbering the initial protests in paris and overcame restrictions . so size ins tonight again in protest of faxing pass is mandatory jobs was a heavy police presence, c as previous gatherings had a hey, generally turn fine men in greece. dozens of right wing gathered in central athens that protest arrival of little molla 3 and a half metre,
3:21 pm
high puppet with serene child, which is travelling across europe in support of refugees. please intervene though to separate rival groups after the activists were met by i came to approach these, trailing parliament is past the bill that grounds police powers to access and control the social media accounts of suspected criminals. it will also allow c with 13 to modify and delete suspects data and even hack their devices all without having to seek judges approval. it said that the power is needed to fight terrorism and child exploitation, much of which is conducted on line critics. so doing stress that the new bill makes the stray liam police judge jury and executioner. while, for instance, in britain ham, united states, no similar powers have been granted at the same time. there's also been discussion too about introducing id checks for uses on social media and dating apps. it's claimed it would help tackle online abuse and destroy aliens. would be asked to
3:22 pm
answer a 100 point questionnaire before setting up an account. so it would essentially remove and immunity on the internet for many, although at this stage it is still just a proposal. we put the issues nonetheless, up for discussion. i believe that people should be identifiable relatively quickly and relatively straightforwardly. should they do something which harms others? things like that are always useful to investigations into investigative offices because communication between individuals is usually a key part of that investigation. and evidentially very important this. this is clearly police haven, you know, police to do no more. we call leaped fascism really because this is where the government is effectively controlling the media. in this case,
3:23 pm
social media or the internet that the source of the problem is that social media an internet communication, has moved on leaps and bounds. and legislation hasn't kept up with it. probably because legislation simply cannot lose that fast. and communication technology has moved. incredible speed like speed over the last few decades. and so problems have a reason where legitimate interests of the state, legitimate interests of the courts, legitimate interest of others, have failed to provide sufficient ways into internet communications. and so that lacks behind the times. the reality is that in nearly all cases we are able to, to unravel the aid id of people, people who use email addresses and credit cards and they pay for things. and it is
3:24 pm
nearly always possible to, to find out who they are. no matter where they are in the world and you know, this is the deal of the police. the police will lead to work a little bit and do a little bit of digging and do a little bit of investigation in order. now you cannot incriminate being an entire nation. in practice, people can be anonymous on the internet and get up to all sorts of criminal activity, closing all sorts of home with the states and judicial bodies, having no practical way of getting behind that. and so that, that is the home that needs to be addressed. so the balance has to be struck where there are sufficient safeguards to make sure the police are doing it on the spec, as it were. and they've got proper grams for it. and so those things do take time, so it's getting the balance, right? remember,
3:25 pm
governments will take as much power as they possibly can. and this is what the stream in government is doing. now. they are just taking as much power as they possibly can, because they can now elsewhere on and stay to regulate, slap the watson messaging service for the record, 225000000 euro fine for breaching a data privacy laws. it just relates to a pro pro and back in 2018 questioning the transparency of the company's privacy policy. they included the way uses data is processed and clarity over high rules are applied on the platform commission caused violations. very serious, although facebook owned whatsapp does say, it disagrees with the decision. also infringement, same of you, very serious nature. they go to the heart of the general principle after spare, and see, and to fund a mental right of the individual to protection of he's help us no data. we have worked to ensure the information we provide is transparent and comprehensive and
3:26 pm
will continue to do so. we disagree with the decision today regarding the transparency we provided to people in 2018 and the penalties are entirely disproportionate. well, it's not the 1st instance of penalties being imposed on take joins in europe just this summer. he might remember amazon was fined by luxembourg regulate for bri, for breaking the data protection rules as well. however, privacy campaigner and tech expert, they'll mute as believe that the fines going really act as a deterrent. but there are some companies on facebook and google examples of this, but actually have a business model based on exploiting data. and these companies need to be held to account to the different level. the problem that we have is, while nominally under g d, p r, you can find a company for 4 percent of its revenue. very few of the data protection authorities are doing this. facebook and what's up or in a position where they are regularly falling fall of the regulations i'm facing
3:27 pm
already built fraction at all. this volume is, is up the chicken feed to them and they all have enormously deep pockets. and there's actually no assurance that this form will actually ever be levied against them. they can go to appeal and they will stretch this out as long as they can. and the irish regulate it's just try and short tracks, big tech booms to base that european headquarters in ireland for a favorable tax regime. now falling in charge of regulating these organizations and holding them out. and they really don't want to run the boat. and that is when you wrap for this, are you watching already international? we're back with more stories in about 30 minutes. oh i use
3:28 pm
the i think what you're binding deed is up against them with a great decision over the last 30 years it, it was the 1st decision which didn't follow the curse over the events and history was an attempt to change the course and the biggest task on the ministry is to contradict history, is to change the historical part from the national 4 important what actually july them did the news so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy plantation
3:29 pm
. let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, a very critical time. time to sit down and talk the hi imac either. this is a cause a report, you know, lot of people see me on tv ripping out money like crazy wondering why are you doing that? isn't that crazy? oh, boy, i got a story for you. well, let's look up some epic mind blowing. actually money ripping. this is a mind blowing graphic in today's times on what? $85000000000.00 worth of last equipment means in practice for the taliban. full
3:30 pm
just name a few of these taliban new arsenal. they have 8000 trucks. 22174 humvees, 126200 95 pistols. 33 helicopters. am i 17 as well? some other aircraft. right, well this is a problem when you can just print money for free, right? with big coin is called proof of work, and you have to actually have a working network to produce it similar to like a gold standard, but on a pure of money standard where the central bank can just print billions and trillions of worthless paper money. it allows them to do things like we're going to fight terrorism by invading a sovereign nation and giving them $85000000000.00 with a weapons of mass destruction and see what happens. right. so obviously that's been the same thing to do. but the money like the us dollar and others encourage is insanity and that's my so many people are finding it difficult to survive in this world.
