the, the, the, the, the, the head of the 911 anniversary are to come, emirates, the enduring impact of the us led war on terror. today we'll be hearing from a british army veteran on the devastating tool of the 20 year of gun conflict. we lost too many people for a situation which we just gave up. also i had to tell a bomb, unveiled its new government for afghan. this done including a terrorist on the f. b, i most wanted list, but washington left with no option to cooperate with the incoming leadership.

and the doctor in florida cause has outraged by refusing to treat patients who haven't had a coven vaccine. we hear from voices who strongly oppose under agree with the medic stamps. can understand where the doctor is getting frustration so she wants to help people and they haven't even bought out the bags. i think we need to respect the people who are so far, refusing the backseat and trying to lower them into persuading them, making them comfortable in receiving the vaccines. ah, wherever you are counting the program from today, not home, even at work or on the moon. welcome to the news r and r t. i'm, you know, new almost 2 decades have passed since the horrors of 911. the

event that triggered america's war on terror. we're continuing to investigate the enduring impact, those conflicts that hot on the lives of millions in our special project on heard voices. the will use all tools at our disposal and killed our children to united states was bringing people to watch a site. it was a pointless exercise. well, among those who paid the highest price for the afghan invasion, where the $457.00 british personnel killed in action. but even for those who did make at home many were left with lasting former. let's hear the account now of a person. he just saw a trevor colt he served in the british army for 20 years, including 4 tours and f canister. i can take my life last year. 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 any more. i mean there and to try to delete it and move away from all. put, put quite a few people lives in the last 4 or 5 years. 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. she wouldn't understand, you know, and given the order to kill someone, still few people get upset about things today that don't need it. i want so i walk

in my coffee and really just drink the coffee. when i 1st went to the gallery, we were told that we were going to burn the poppy fields to the plumber to work. do not, not pon, change them out. we landed in 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. solutions 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 the things yourself and realize why we here. what do we think we know? look at gast, i don't think it was a pointless exercise. what's happening in the south of afghanistan, the residence about height, and the tell him i'm trying to get back power. ah,

we want our way back in the tell about 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 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, public trauma, it's a constant heights about over a weeks and weeks ah u. k. troops and deficiency, what running the plot to a more serious deadline? it, thanks to that colossal exertions this country has not been processed or checked, vetted, and ended on more than 15000 people to safety in less than 2 weeks. i mean,

it's been a complete mess, hard by ins and ministration worked. what's the rational of his allies? it would have 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. the 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 or what you don't do, your flyers, your military and angle. what about the, what about the civilians, thomas and i got sick at home be $600.00 version m. 16 weapon systems, 3 stars and bombs left behind. and so that's munitions that can reach for id. like last night 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. haunting memories there from trevor cold on throughout the week we'll

be speaking with more people. both soldiers and civilians whose lives were irrevocably altered by america's war tomorrow. and here the testimonies of a 911 widow and a u. s. war veteran. now sooner special coverage on heard voices look um. sony reba dismisses long running allegations on its rule in the $911.00 plane hijacking. unwelcome washington. this decision to release classified more nuts a little later in the program. 9 days after the rushed us polite from afghan us down, the country has a new government in waiting. it consists mostly of hard line telethon militants, and the u. s. h. it's in no rush to recognise the new regime said the white house nodded. it's little option, but to work with the terra group, they went to war against 20 years ago. their new acting interior minister is her

tiny network carriage wanted for a bombing that killed 6 people, including an american these believe 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 ganna, stan and just leave it and not get the rest of the american citizens out? the international community is watching the united states as 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 tell about the field, it's all male interim government. on wednesday the military will be led by the some of the taliban founder and the interior minister is a militant wanted in the u. s. for some deadly bombings including a 2017 truck blasting couple that killed 150 people. the taliban leadership will

also include members of a us designated group and former guantanamo inmates. the offshore prison has been operating out a us military base and cuba for 19 years. and not time, almost $800.00 people have been held there without charge or trial. many subjected to water boarding stress positions and sleep deprivation of john that korea co, a former c. i a analyst who lifted the lid on abuse of interrogations in guantanamo talked to warranty earlier. you still stands by his decision to speak. either 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 american 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. 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 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 in 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 crime prosecuted and see the people who carried out

those crimes punished. we haven't seen that in many, many years. john korea. meanwhile, the united nations human rights body has worn that afghan. this time is facing total collapse and basic services with food life saving aid as well by to remote and estimates not at least $600000000.00 in aid will be needed by the end of the year to prevent a catastrophe. the u. n. also reports nearly half of afghan, a population of 38000000 needs humanitarian aid. among them are 3 and a half 1000000 internally displaced by conflict. the red cross president peter mortar travel to the country and visited medical facilities before meeting with the new afghan government. he took the time to talk to ortiz or the on the one side, you will see all that these are remnants of war. you see these are

camps distorted vehicles, military vehicles. you see the struction where fighting has taken place, including in some of the cities like blush and others. and on the other hand, you see a normality 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 need we had a long conversation with the deputy of now we're now in government, a very substantial conversation with him self and with some of his closer 8 and collaborators in order to ensure that the humanitarian space, which is needed for

a good, impactful, and usually humanitarian assistance are guaranteed. i think we got a lot of understanding and also good sense that we need for it or dialogues as we move forward. okay, to a story, generating a lot of interest today. a doctor in miami is making headlines after lunching. she won't treat anyone in person who hasn't had a cobit vaccine. dr. linda morris seen a claim she's been forced to draw a red line by her concern for 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 draws the line and the said for me, the doctor said her decision complies with ethical standards because she still

offering phone appointments. exempting people who can't get vaccinated on medical grounds with the highly contagious delta variant of cove. it's still a concern. dr. morris seni joins the global chorus of those calling for a greater vaccination push. my colleague, neil 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 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 been able 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 there was a, a b, b, c presenter who got a blood clot from a vaccination and died. 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 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 know,

have the best experience, not only in our own country, but around the world with this, but actually 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 poured 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 gates, he put a chip next. what he's to the, this is an experimental vaccine. he's not an experimental vaccine mister 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 lot of 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 another vaccination, it's like in apartheid state. it isn't a part time we combs and that these people who got the 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. after a short break here in our tea, the messaging service, what's up again under fire, for importantly, ditching a pledge to protect its users. private data we picked on the location. i

use jain, me every thursday, and the alex summon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me financial guy. i don't buy a i buy futures. that's not an almost friday. that's the last time i buy it from the future. so for i can watch kaiser report when i would show the wrong one. i'll just don't rule out the thing because the kid an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves,

well the part we choose to look for common ground in the the me ah, 3 20 pm here in most welcome back. as we approach the 20th anniversary of $911.00, the sodium bassy in washington sees it once classified documents relating to the terrorist attack to be released. it believes the files will prove the gulf kingdom 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. this is 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 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

and the attacks that took place 20 years ago. and it certainly left a big scar on the u. s public guy, 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 to a topic which keeps on raising its head. the messaging service, what's up prides itself. we know this on an vance encryption technology, which supposedly keeps your message, is private. but it turns out most users are hunting over far more data to the apps per company facebook than thought. your chart is dimitri polk. everyone likes their privacy and when you use a messenger like whatsapp 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 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. zone encrypted data available for scrutiny is extensive. it includes the names and profile images of a 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 users

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 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 are focused around the privacy of our users, maintaining a high degree of reliability and prevention abuse. what the company doesn't just stop at batting accounts, which had been reported by users. they 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 leak

the documents in a bid to expose corruption. notice was accountability and the american people had the right to know what was occurring within treasury and that it was a national security issue. and the 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 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 like the company is more concerned with stopping the spread of what they called 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 raise their 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 janes and reminding the silicon valley billionaires that know they are not our rulers, and that nobody elected them. they are not above the law. hey, quick selection of stories from across the globe. now a fire house kills at least 10 people, an injured many more. a mic shift coban, 1900 hospital in north master dounia, the prime minister described it was

a huge tragedy of the balkan nation. fire officials say the structure was full of flammable plastics allowing the flames to spread them wide. clusters have a ruptured in the west bank at rallies in support of palestinian prisoners. this was the scene in bethlehem overnight. it comes after 6 inmates escape from a jail in northern israel using an underground tunnel. a large steel man hunt is going on picking you back to europe. finally, where l g b t. solidarity rallies have swept madrid from the ledge knife it's going to gay men. spanish police have launched a have prime pro doctor 8 men reportedly surrounded the 20 year old on sunday, haunting and then stopping him. crowds took to the streets with banners denouncing homophobia, and demanding just the latest edition of the alex summon show gets it started moment they choose for the former 1st minister of scotland and his guests after the

shortest of breaks here on archie. ah, ah ah, ah. having alternate realities to experience or even live in like a world war, does my dear you know,

especially during the and damage where you can go anywhere in the game world, go everywhere, you know, 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 name it these, these are getaways. ah, [000:00:00;00] me . welcome to the alex famine show. we examine one of the
