those was people, carroll lot one or a dead soldier or dead marine shows up in this country and we started asking ourselves, why did they don water, what were they fighting for? nobody bothers down to about the contractors the in the had all benign. and that's the amount of buffering all memory ensuring impacts of the us led war on terror. today we'll be hearing from a british army veteran on the devastating toll of the 20 african we've lost too many people for situation, which we just give a point. also has a ton of on vales and new government props down us on including a terrorist on yesterday, i wanted let washington left with no want to cooperate with the incoming leadership . and a doctor in florida was,

is outraged by refusing to treat patients who have been, had a coven fact seen. we had different sides of the argument, understand where they don't have getting frustration. she wants to help people, and they haven't even pulled out the back. i think we need to respect people who are so far, refusing the vaccine and trying to lower them into persuading them, making them comfortable and receiving the vaccine. ah, life, almost every hour of the day. this is all t international from the whole team here and most because i welcome to our program . we're getting started. let's head straight to southwest england where the suspects been detained. ultra stopping in a petrol station, a one pass and was injured in not incident, which led to a lengthy standoff with members of staff trapped inside bystanders. heard loud

bangs and saw flashes of light inside the building. suggesting police may have used don grenades to subdue the attacker who was, as we've been told, armed with a knife almost 2 decades. how parsons, the horrors of 911 given the trigger. america's warm tara, and here i saw t. we are investigating the enduring impact. those conflicts have had on the lives of millions and our special projects on hot voices. the will use all tools at our disposal. killed our children to united states was bringing people to watch a site. it was a pointless exercise among those who paid the highest price for the afghan invasion, while the $457.00 british personnel killed in action. but even many of those who did make it home were left with lasting trauma. we heard from trevor colt who

sobbed in the personal me for 20 years, including for tools and i've danced on i can take my life last year. i was in a wheel by the way, my mind ended. i needed 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, they're going to try to delete it and move away small. but quite a few people lives in the last 4 or 5 years. i think the most recent is only a few months ago. guys 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 and stuff you, people get upset of it, things today that, that don't need to go up satellite. i want, so i morgan my coffee, i really just drink the coffee. when i 1st went to the gallery on, we were told that we were going to burn the poppy fields to the plumbers to work and do not, not planned, change them out. we landed in on our troops in a way that they haven't for many years are going to be fighting alongside other countries and situations of great danger. solis are very good at taking orders and just getting on with it. i'm not questioning orders, but as you go through the years and you mature and you start to sort of have to bring in the thing for yourself and realize, okay, why are we here? what do we think we know looking at this time? i think there was a point this exercise. what's happening in the south of afghanistan is the remnant

about tight and the taliban trying to get back power. the news we want our way back. and the taliban had already got id in the grind that we'd already cleared. my friend, my really was just a couple stood on one and died instantly lost his arms and legs. i believe you had the 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 the u. k. troops and officials would run the block to a remorseless deadline. it,

thanks to the colossal exertions this country has not been processed, checked, vetted, and ended more than 15000 people to safety in less than 2 weeks. i mean, it's been a complete mess. had binds 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 military mindset to understand that if you're going to extract from a country, you bring back all your citizens from the embassy, put them into secure bias and then fly them. what you don't doing is flyers your military and angle. what about the one with the civilians? tom and i got tional. home be 600 version m. 16 weapon systems, 3 stars and bombs left behind. so that's munitions that can use for id the glass that i was watching. last night i watched a video of telephone draft 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 situation which we just give up on over the next few days, we will be speaking with more people, soldiers, civilians, to whose lives overturned by america's war. in fact, tomorrow will be here in the testimonies of a 911 widow on the us war veteran will part of our special coverage on hud voice as well. so come on this program, saudi arabia dismisses long running allegations on the road and the 911 plane hijackings unwelcomed washington decision to release a classified filed war. i'm not in a few minutes 9 days off to be rushed. us pull out from afghanistan. the country has a new government in waiting. it consists mostly of hard line town. upon millison on the us says it's a no rush to recognize the new regime. but said the white house that has no option

to walk with the terror group, but they want to war against 20 years ago. their new acting interior minister is a tiny network terrorists. he's wanted for a bombing the kill think 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, 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 with the international community is watching. the united states is watching. its whether they let people depart the country who want to depart, whether they treat women across the country as they have committed to treat them and how they behave and operate. and therefore we're not moving toward recognition . at the same time, we're dealing with a reality world here we have to engage in order to get american citizens and others out of the country. the taliban unveiled is all male into a government. on wednesday, the military will be led by the son of the town upon founder on the interior and it says a militant wanted in the us, some deadly bombings, including

a 2017 truck loft. cobble that killed a 150 people. the taliban leadership will also increase members of the u. s. designated group and full, not one ton of inmates. so the offshore prison has been operating as you might know . i mean as a u. s. military base in cuba for 19 years. and in that time with $800.00 people have been held that without charge or trial many subjected to water boarding stress positions and sleep deprivation. we spoke with john curiosity, a former c. i a analyst who lifted the lead on abusive interrogations in guantanamo, he still stands by his decision, 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 could 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 those to show you that this

was another intelligence failure in a long line of intelligence failures. i think the asked at the afghan people rightly resent the 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 stock crimes are being committed

and then we have to see those crime 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 wounded off kind of stone, is facing a total collapse and basic services with food. unlike saving a devout run out and estimates that at least $600000000.00 in a will need to by the end of the year to prevent a catastrophe. you also report many off all past kind of sounds. population of 38000000 means humanitarian aid. among them of 3 and a half 1000000 in town and you just faced lie conflict. the red cross president pizza more traveled to the country and visited medical facilities are met within new african government. he spoke 20 on the one side. you see all that these are the remnants of war. you see these

camps, these vehicles, military vehicles. you see they struction where fighting has taken place, including in some of the cities like classical guy and others. and on the other hand, you see and normally of life and normal 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 human period. neat. we had a long conversation with marla, about the deputy of 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 good sense that we need further dialogues as we move forward from the us to talk to miami, is making headlines afternoon saying that she won't treat anyone in person who hasn't had a co faxing talk to linda martine claims she's been forced to read line and by how can son so public health we will no longer subject our patients and stuff to unnecessary risk when it comes to 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 said this is where it draws the line. and the said for me, the doctor says hard decision doesn't fall foul of ethical standards because she's still offering phone appointments and exempting people who can't get vaccinated on medical grounds with the highly contagious delta variance on coff cova taking hold

around the world. dr. martini joins the global chorus of those calling for great to vaccination. push. my colleague, neal harvey, put the issue up for 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 than elsewhere here in my own medical center, the vanderbilt university medical center. we're not doing that. we're using good infection control precautions and take care of all patients infected with covered 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 are present in themselves who wanted to present themselves,

her medical center, and they haven't even bothered to have the vac. local, i believe is everybody's duty. no man is an island and everybody should be getting vaccinated for a few high profile cases that gets picked up by the media. i think there was a b, b. c presenter, who got a blood clot from a vaccination and died the 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 it 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 hasn't the 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 backseats. 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 be further spread virus. the internet is a great place to spread conspiracies and i think mouse where is coming from. will i from the wild conspiracies that bill gains he put in a chip and what he's like, me to the this is an experiment. maxine, he's not an experimental vaccine vaccine that's being tested. what about the societal him 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, creates in our country, you know, they're talking all if you have enough vaccination, this law can apartheid state. it isn't a part. we can't 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. had on the messaging father walked up is again on the fire for pony ditching. a pledge to protect to fuses private data. moral, not of the short right. ah, the

ah, me having alternate realities to experience or even live like say or does my via you know, especially during the and damage where you can go anywhere in the game world, go everywhere, choose the game that you want, any open roll game, choose it, and you are now on a vacation in a place where you're like flying helicopters or you're, you're on beaches, you're, you're in a city drive, you know, whatever you want, you know, your name and these,

these are getaways. ah, welcome back. as we approach the 20th anniversary of $911.00, the saudi embassy and washington says it once classified documents relating to the tower attack to be released, claiming that they'll prove the country, it was in no way involved. no evidence is ever emerged to indicate that the saudi government or its 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 as 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 hijacker 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 one answer is 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 in 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 see, must think of us what's up prides itself on advanced encryption technology,

which supposedly keeps your message in private. but it turns out that most uses, how do you have a formal data to the apps? parent company, facebook, then they realize ortiz to park investigates. everyone likes their privacy. and when you use a messenger, like what's app 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 being 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 which others 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. though an 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 they use the app and even a history of any previous violations, not exactly what you would call complete privacy, although a spokesperson for what i 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 prisoner for leaking, sensitive information to the media, describing how dirty money flows through us banks edwards has maintained. 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 arrests based on may. the data in the near future. and while facebook promises but it cares about security and privacy, if it's 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, regular,

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 giants. and reminding the silicon valley billionaires that know they are not our rulers, and that nobody elected them. they are not above the law. let's finish off with some news. in brief, a fire has killed at least 10 people run into many more mischief. cozy hospital in the prime is described as a huge tragedy to the full commission fire fire. this will say the structure was full of plastics and allow the flames to spread so rapidly. one other story classes have dropped it in the west. buying ronnie's in support of palestinian prisoners. this right here. that was the scene and best overnight that comes off to 6 inmates, escaped from a jail and moved and is using an underground tunnel. a large scale man hunt is ongoing. and finally,

our tv on the derek rallies have swept madrid after an alleged night attack on a gay man. spanish police have launched a hate crime prob, off the 8 man, reportedly surrounded the 20 year old on sunday, hunting and stopping him. crowds trip to the streets was found as now thing home, a phobia i'm demanding jobs are not how run down all the big stories is looking for the moment. you know, meal will be here with the very latest the top now. so do stay with us, and i hope to see the join me every 1st on the alex simon show. and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politic sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me i have often said transparency for the powerful receipt for the palace cares about

privacy. what people care about is power. julian, a son just become a symbol of the battles of brevity. information is power. that's what's going on and a huge struggle with governments and corporations who want to keep information secret and others who democratic rights should be pushed forward. and people have a right to know when they're going to do. watch how much help shift the conversation around transparency and see what that battle has done to him. i feel like julian's life might be coming to an end. we are in a conflict situation with the largest and most powerful employer. in such a situation. it's remarkable. it's about the

everybody's turn around the traffic circle, they're really trying to get away from the influx of contractors, what largely uncontrolled by us government was it was this organized non purpose. it just was too much going on in wars zones. and there is no coordination really, between the companies the problem was that we had all of the different private military companies running around we out source to quickly. and they weren't coordinated both in contract terms, but also and on the ground operational terms. so what is your answer to a problem without sourcing outsource, more we out sourced it to a.
