somebody either stuck up in the cove it, you're living like the female of old, but in the 21st century, the head of the 911 on a past 3. all to commemorate the ensuring impact of the us led war on terror. today we'll be hearing from a british army factor and on the devastate control of the 20 year long john, the too thing through how you're still living with us get a feeling of fear. we've lost too many people for situation, which we just give a point. also ahead of time on unveiled new government for us down to san including a terrorist on me. yes. the most wanted list, but washington is left with no option to cooperate with the incoming leadership.

and the in florida course is outraged by refusing to treat patients who have been how to coping practicing. we have the different slides and the ottoman can understand this doctor's getting straight. she wants to help people, and they haven't even bothered to have the bags. i think we need to respect the people who are so far, refusing the vaccine and trying to lower them into persuading them, making them comfortable receiving the bags. ah, it's just gone 9 am here in the washing capital. you are watching our t international, where you're joining us from a very welcome to the program will fast up almost 2 decades have passed since the horrors of 911. the event that triggered to americas warm terror on here at all

t were investigating the ensuring impact those conflicts have had on the lives of millions and our special project on hud voices. the will use all tools at our disposal. killed our children to united states was bringing people to watch a sight. it was a pointless exercise while among those who paid the highest price for the ass down invasion. while the 457 british personnel killed in action. but even many of those who didn't make it home were left with last tor. mom. we've had from chevy colt who sobbed in the british army for 20 years, including 4 tours enough down on i can take my life last year and i was in a wheel by the way, my mind ended. i nearly lost my son and i didn't know what to do. a lot of the guys i was with don't really talk to each other anymore. i mean there and to try to delete it and move away small. but quite a few people lives in the last,

but for 5 years i think the most recent is only a few months ago. i few been through hell and you're still living it. you just get a feeling of fear somebody wouldn't understand, you know? and given the order to kill someone, stuff you, people get upset of things today that don't need a lot satellite. i want. so i look in my coffee, i really just drink the coffee when

i 1st went to gaston, we were told that we were going to burn the puppy. feels to the promise that pon changed them. we landed in on our troops in a way that they haven't for many years, are going to be fighting alongside other countries in situations of great danger. soldiers are very good at taking orders and just getting on with that. i'm not questioning orders. but as you go to the years and you mature and you start to sort of have to bring in the things for yourself and realize, okay, why are we here? what do we think we know looking at style a think it was a point, this exercise? what's happening in the south of afghanistan? is that a residence about tight and taliban trying to get back power the we want our way back. and the taliban had already got id in the grind that we had

already cleared. my friend, my really was just a couple, stood on one and died instantly lost his arms and legs. i believe it's 17 casualties all from, from our group out of each of those casualties. you've got quite a few guys affected by what they've seen. it's trauma on top of trauma, it's a constant heights about over a weeks and weeks, and most of the u. k. troops and officials of work round the clock to a remorseless deadline. it, thanks to the colossal exertions this country has not been processed, checked, vetted, and it did more than 15000 people to safety in less than 2 weeks. i mean, it's been a complete mess. hard by administration, worked with the rest of his allies. it would've been,

we were going to leave anyway, but we could have done it in a systematic approach. for instance. you don't even need to have a middle of the mindset to understand. but if you're going to extract from a country, you bring back all your citizens from the embassy, put them into secure abuse, and then fly them or what you don't do, your flyers, your military, and then go. what about the, what with the civilians. tama and i got tional that got home be 600016 weapon systems, 3 stars and bombs left behind. so the munitions that can be used for the glass that i was watching last night i watched the video of taliban dressed as us special forces moving in behind her to take control of fortune x, which you know, it's just unbelievable. we've lost too many people for a situation which we just give a point. we will be speaking with more people, soldiers, civilians, to his lives, was overturned by america's war. in fact, tomorrow we'll be hearing the testimonies of a 911 widow on the us war veteran. that is all part of our special coverage on hud

voices. how still to come later on? saudi arabia dismisses long running allegations on its role in the 911, played hijackings, and welcome washington physician to relief classified files. moral not in just a few minutes. in the meantime, 9 days half to the rushed us pull out from afghanistan. the country has a new government in waiting. it consists mostly of hard line taliban militants. us says it's in no rush to recognize the new regime. nevertheless, the white house says it has no other option, but to walk with the tower group they went to war against 20 long years ago. their new acting interior minister is a tiny network terrorist he's wanted for a bombing, the killed 6 people, including an american. he believed to have participated in cross border attack against us troops. there's a $10000000.00 bounty on his head. why are we engaging?

should we not? should we not talk to the people who are overseeing of ghana, stan, and just leave it and not get the rest of the american citizens out without an unveiled or mail interim government on wednesday, the military will be led by the sun over the telephone found on the interior minister as a militant wanted in the us for some deadly bombings, including a 2017 truck austin cobble killed 150 people. and yet the u. s. secretary of state was apparently more concerned about the lack of inclusive. now, despite professing that a new government would be inclusive, the announce list of names consist exclusively of individuals or members of the taliban or their close associates. and know when we're also concerned by the affiliations and track record to some of those individuals. the taliban seek international legitimacy and support any legitimacy, any support will have to be earned. spoke with john carrier, a former c i,

unless he lifted the net on abusive interrogations of alco philly to prisoners by us. pass to no. he says he still stands by his decision to speak out. i have 0 regrets. i will never have any regrets. somebody had to tell the american people that the government was committing crimes in their name. you know, when we try to convince the world that we are a shining beacon of human rights and respect for civil rights and civil liberties. and then they see us carrying out a torture program at secret prisons around the world. it just makes us look so hypocritical, i can understand why any country would want to emulate the united states in a situation like that. the end of this 20 year military campaign by the united states in afghanistan. did you ever imagine that it would and so quickly, so frantically. no, i didn't imagine so, and i don't think any americans did just like no americans assumed in september or

october of 2001 that 20 years later we would be having this conversation. you know, president biden said just about a month ago that he believed that the african government put hold out for 6 more months. in fact, they held out for 6 days. and i think that that he gave that 6 month time because that's what he was told by the cia. and it just goes to show you that this was another intelligence failure in a long line of intelligence failures. i think the after, at the afghan people rightly resent united states for 20 years of occupation and then in the end, nothing to show for it, but death and destruction. we made this terrible, terrible mistake called nation building, where we decided that it was, it was incumbent upon us to impose a western style democracy on a country that never had any history of western style democracy. and then we

couldn't understand why it didn't stick. what we have to have is true and robust, congressional oversight, which we have not had in decades. what you see general is a group of congressional cheerleaders for the cia, the f, b i, the defense department, and the state department. and that has to stop. there has to be legitimate, true oversight, where members of congress tell the government to stop crimes are being committed and then we have to see those crimes prosecuted and see the people who carried out those crimes punished. we haven't seen that in many, many years. meanwhile, the united nations human rights party has warned that i've kind of started facing a total cut ups in basic services with food and life saving 8 about to run out and estimates that it needs 600000000 dollars in a will be needed by the end of the year to prevent a catastrophe. meanwhile, the un women's agency and i've kind of stone,

says it's receiving reports of significant role box on women's rights. now those complaints range from women being far from going to walk from even leaving their homes. also attacks on schools for goals. the taliban has said it will respect women's rights bought only in accordance with sure we're law. red cross president peter morris in afghanistan has been visiting medical facilities on meeting with the new government. he spoke to t on the one side. you will see all the deserted remnants of war. you see these are camps. these are 2 vehicles, military vehicles. you see this traction where fighting has taken place, including in some of the cities like classical guitar and others. and on the other hand, you see an normality of life and normalcy of life. you see that this country is

and has been affected by 40 years of war and by poverty and the 2 together create enormous humanitarian need. what i can see is that this is a country in bad need. of your many terry and assistance of help to stop lies, infrastructure, and basic services. it needs international support and when and how political actors states will recognize that you are gone. government is, of course, up to them. our interest is that international support comes to have gotten the stand to the people of afghanistan and in a way which is respectful of the geneva conventions of best many tavian practices. and i am hopeful that we manage to have acceptable conditions, given some of the assurances that myself and also the coordinator of the many

terran affairs of the us have received this week. we had a long conversation with marla, about the deputy of the now we're now in government, a very substantive conversation with him self and with some of his closer aids and collaborators in order to ensure that the humanitarian space, which is needed for a good, impactful and mutually human, terry and assistance are guaranteed. i think we got a lot of understanding and also a good sense that we need further dialogues as we move forward. as i c r. c, we have worked with tale bon in territories controlled by them. over the last

40 case, and so now in power, we will certainly continue to capitalize on these relations as we approach the 20th anniversary of $911.00, the saudi embassy and washington says a once classified documents relating to the terrorist attack to be released played means the del, prove the country was in no way involved. no evidence is ever emerged to indicate that the saudi government, or is officials, had previous knowledge of the terrorist attack, or were in any way involved in its planning or execution. its already been a long standing aspect of suspicion on saudi arabia due to the fact that a number of the hijackers were from saudi arabia, those who hijacked the aeroplanes. however, the united states has long been basically downplaying any investigation or talk of such involvement by the saudis in 911. because saudi arabia is

a key ally of the united states in the region. now relatives of victims of $911.00 have attempted to sue saudi arabia. in court, alleging that it was involved or complicit somehow in the attacks. however, under a 1976 law, basically they're unable to do to take that action just because the 976 law gives foreign governments immunity from such lawsuits. now, will recall that there were the $28.00 pages from the $911.00 commission that were released. and those were, you know, long classified pages about saudi arabia as possible connections and f b. i investigations into saudi arabia following the 911 attacks. now the, the panel, basically they use the language that they said they did not discover any role by a quote, senior high level, saudi government official in the $911.00 attacks. but many of looked at what they referred to as the commissions, narrow wording,

and basically said that it's possible that less senior officials on the part of the saudi government could have played a role. now. so far, washington has claimed that there was no direct role by saudi arabia in the 911 attacks. here's what we've heard. our investigation has covered no credible evidence that any person in the united states gave the hijackers substantial financial assistance. now, there are a lot of americans who have looked at what was in the 28 pages previously released style and have looked at some of the information surrounding the 911 attacks. and do want answers about the kingdom of saudi arabia and perhaps nefarious activities or what role it could have played. people want new information about what went on and the attacks that took place 20 years ago and certainly left a big scar on the u. s. public, but it's unclear if joe biden will go ahead and take this move if he will make such information public or not. joe biden will have the final say as the president of the united states. still ahead on all tv messaging service,

what top is again under fire for barney, king pledge to protect it, to use his private data. moral. not on a few stories off the brain. i joined me every 1st day on the alex simon show. when i was speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport business, i'm show business. i'll see you then me the way the u. s. government funded is through the issuance of treasury bond and they pay the interest on those bonds by collecting taxes who owns most of those bonds? virtually all those bonds, the top 110th of one percent. so the government simply becomes a pastor mechanism for people to pay money from their pockets through something

called taxes that are just a thickly that hides the transmission mechanism of your money through the government, into those who own these bonds. the, the, the, the the hello again, a doctor in miami is making headlines, alter, announcing she won't treat anyone in person who constant coping back seen doctor linda marchina claims. she's been forced to draw red line bike and her concern for public health. when it comes to the safety of others, when it comes to the fact that it's a global health problem and community health problem at this point, i really say that this is where we draw the line and the send for me. well,

the doctor says how decision doesn't for fall of the ethical standards, because she's still offering phone appointments and exempting people who can't get vaccinated on medical grounds with a highly contagious delta barrier until covert taking hold around the world. dr. martini joins the global course of those quoting for a greater vaccination push. my colleague, neal harvey, put the issue up to debate. she's obviously set out a standard in her practice and everybody knows about that. then all of our patients know, and she's using, i'm sure, computer based telemedicine. however, if they require in person care, she'll have to refer them elsewhere. here in my own medical center, the vanderbilt university medical center. we're not doing that. we're using good infection control precautions to take care of all patients infected with coded and not vaccinated or not. and understand where this doctor's getting frustrated.

because there she is. she wants to deal with people. she wants to help people, but she's got people who present themselves who wanted to present themselves, her medical center, and they haven't even bothered to have the vac. look, i believe is everybody's duty. no man is an island and everybody should be getting vaccinated through a few high profile cases that gets picked up by the media. i think that was a b b. c presenter who got a blood clot from a vaccination and died. nice. so he's got a lot of attention. can you understand people reading something like that and thinking, i don't want to die. i don't want to be one of the lucky ones. he gets a blood clot and dies from this, and he probably statistically isn't going to kill me any way. cobit, i'm going to take my chances. can you sympathize with that mentality? the average person has a background in science and they're fearful fearful of the vaccine. and fearful of the virus, and that gets them in the middle, and they don't act at all. certainly not receiving the vaccine. we've given this

vaccine to more people in a short period of time before, you know, have a bad experience. not only in our own country, but around the world with this backseat. we know how it works. it's not perfect, but it sure is very, very good. and if we all took it, it could really on board the further spread of virus. the internet is a great place to spread conspiracies, and i think elsewhere is coming from. will i from the wild conspiracies that bill gains he put in a chip next? what is to the this is an experimental vaccine. it's not an experimental vaccine. this vaccine that's being tested. what about the societal in but couldn't wind up with a situation where you've got, you know, for example, almost half of the population in america who haven't been vaccinated, you could have a last indigent people saying we will refuse this mandatory vaccination. could you

end up with a real societal split and a kind of to tear society where you've got people who actually have a lot less freedom because they refuse vaccination versus mandate? i don't really want to be mandatory. there shouldn't be a need for that. people should be selfless, not selfish, be creates in our country, you know, they're talking all if you have enough vaccination, it's like in apartheid state. it isn't a part time we combs and let these people who got these stupid ideas. well, this so called hesitance, i think we need to respect the people who, who are so far, refusing the vaccine and trying to lure them into persuading them, making them comfortable in receiving the vaccine the mustering service. what that prides itself on advanced encryption technology, which supposedly keeps your message, is private. but it turns out that most use as a hunting over formal dates as the parent company that's facebook than they realize

ortiz to meet to park investigates. every one likes their privacy, and when you use a messenger like what's up that keeps hammering on and on about how secure it is, you're inclined to believe that your private data stays well private. well, shocker, that's apparently not the case. what's up turns out to be, well, not that private and it's owner. facebook keeps paying hundreds of millions in fines for privacy violations. and that's after numerous promises from zocker berg about insuring a truly secure experience on their platforms. i believe the future of communication will increasingly shift to private encrypted services where people can be confident, what they say to each other, stay secure. this is the future i hope will help bring about that was back in 2019 and what was supposed to be the messenger to bring about a part of that private future. but come on, this is facebook we're talking about,

according to a recent investigation by the pro public a platform, it turns out facebook actively undermined its security assurances. the encrypted data available for scrutiny is extensive. it includes the names and profile images of the uses. what's up groups, as well as the phone number, profile, photo status, message phone, but your level language and time zone unique mobile phone id and ip address. and that's not all. other unencrypted data reportedly includes access to the user's entire list of electronic devices. any related facebook or instagram accounts the last time to use the app and even a history of any previous violations? not exactly what you would call complete privacy, although a spokesperson for what's ab did reiterate that users messages are still encrypted and are only seen when they are forwarded to the user submitted report system. the decisions we make around how we build out app. our focus around the privacy of our users, maintaining a high degree of reliability and prevention abuse. but the company doesn't just

stop at batting accounts, which have been reported by users. they've also allegedly share all the information they have with the justice department. apparently what's up metadata played an important role in the arrest of a former senior advisory at the us treasury. natalie may edwards, who had been sent to prison for leaking sensitive information to the media, describing how dirty money flows through us banks edwards has maintain. she leaked the documents in a bid to expose corruption. notice was accountability and the american people had the right to know what was occurring with the treasury and that it was a national security issue and that american lives were in jeopardy. instead of the government doing their job, they decided to come after a whistleblower with the increasing rate at which the u. s. government requests information from all facebook affiliated platforms. it's plausible to assume there will be more arrest based on may the data in the near future. and while facebook promises but it cares about security and privacy of its users at the end of the day,

it doesn't seem to have an issue collecting and giving out information to those who ask for it seems the company is more concerned with stopping the spread of what they call disinformation, and with trying to assert their influence in politics, instead of actually remembering that they started as a social media site, it's true to say that nothing is really private nowadays, but that doesn't change the fact that when a company assures and promises its users that something will be encrypted and they, they will not be able to review the content of their messages. when that trust is broke. i think that they should be entitled to, at least, frankly, at this point, some sort of compensation. there are different protections for consumers in every industry, but for some reason, tech companies seem to be the only ones out there that can once again reg, they're on terms of service and for their customers trust with no consequences, largely. and i think it's about time that the actual elected officials in the world start asserting their power against these tech james and reminding the silicon

valley billionaires that know they are not our rulers, and that nobody elected them. they are not above the law. and let's just wrap up this a few stories, in brief, a fire has killed at least 10 people and injured many more to make shift cove at 1900 hospital in north macedonia. the prime minister described it as a huge tragedy for both nation fire officials say the structural flint of flamel tactics allowing those flames to spread rapidly. meanwhile, clashes how's the ruptured in the west bank, raleigh's, in support of palestinian prisoners. this was the scene and back the han overnight . it comes off to 6 inmates, escaped from magellan rules and israel using an underground tunnel and large scale, $900.00 is ongoing and find the solitary rallies. have sweat from the tread to offer a legend knife attack on a gay man. spanish police have launched a hate crime prob, off the 8 man reports me surrounded the 20 year old on some day taunting and

sapping him crowds took to the street who found is denouncing homophobia and demanding justice. well that is the news for now. i'm back at the top, the hour pools off the short break midway updates. do stay with also because heading away now and it's the alex com and so have a great day me the ah ah ah,

welcome to the alex famine. sure. we examine one of the consequences of all for you kid ministrations. i live in corbett to sweep through the population. although cases have been searching through the late summer, the for whole nations are taken comforts in the fact that mass vaccination has weakened the link between infection and hospitalized ation. thus, although cases had been reaching near record level, the pressure on the health service from the contagion is much less than it was in previous wave of the by this. however, while the vaccines appeared to be limiting the acute impact of the condition, that is still grace and certainty about the long term effects and in particular about the conditions of long coping. on today, shall we look at the science and the personal impact of.
