9:00 am
somebody either stuck up in the cove. it, you're living like the semen of own, but in the 21st century. ah ah, ahead of the 911 anniversary artsy commemorates the enduring impact of the us led war on terror. today we'll be hearing from a british army veteran on the devastating soul of the 20 year off gun conflict. we've lost too many people for situations which we just give a point. and also i have the telephone on vales, its new government for afghanistan, including a terrorist on the f. b, i most wanted lead washington left with no option to cooperate with the incoming leadership doctor in florida. that causes outrage by refusing to treat
9:01 am
patients who happened to have a coven vaccine, leisure from voices who strongly opposed under agree with the medic. so i can understand where this doctor is getting frustration, who 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 in receiving the vaccine. ah, just after 10 am and rio 10 at night and soul and 4 in the afternoon here in moscow this thursday, september the 9th. welcome to the news our on our t almost 2 decades have passed since the hours of $911.00. the event that triggered america's war on terror,
9:02 am
we're continuing to investigate the enduring impact. those conflicts have had on the lives of millions in our special project on heard voices. the will use all tools at our disposal. said, killed our children to united states was bringing people to watch the site. it was a pointless exercise among those who paid the highest price for the afghan invasion, where the $457.00 british personnel killed an auction. but even for those who did make at home many were left with lusting trauma. let's be here. they kind of trevor cool too. you might have just seen a few moments ago. he served in the british army for 20 years, including 4 tours enough chemist i take my life last year. i was in a wheel by the way, my mind ended. i nearly lost my son. i didn't know what to do. a lot of the guys and i was with don't really talk to each other any more. i mean,
9:03 am
they're going try to delete it, moves away. so we'll put, put quite a few people lives in the last, but for 5 years, most recent is only a few months ago. i have been through hell and you're still living it. you just get a feeling of fear something wouldn't understand, you know. and given the order to kill someone, still few people get upset of it. things today that don't need it. i won't. so i
9:04 am
woke and my coffee, i 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 promised work. do not, not planned, change them. and 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. 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 thing yourself and realize why we here. what are we doing? we're not looking at style. i think there was a point this exercise. what's happening in the south of afghanistan, the residence about height and the taliban trying to get back power? ah,
9:05 am
we want our way back. and the taliban had already got 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 on top of trauma, it's a constant heights about over a weeks and weeks and most ah u. k. troops and officials, what run the plot to a remorseless deadline. it, thanks to the 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,
9:06 am
hard by ins and ministration worked. what's the rational 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 the middle of 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 like what you don't doing is flyers your military and angle, what about the what about the civilians? tom, i'm not sure if that got home be 600 version m. 16 weapon systems, 3000 bombs left behind. so that's munitions that can use for id. like last night i was watching that i watch a 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 situation which we just give up. the highly decorated former british army officer there at trevor colt . and throughout the week we will be speaking with more people,
9:07 am
both soldiers and civilians whose lives were irrevocably altered by america's longest war. tomorrow. we'll hear the testimonies of a 911 widow under u. s. war veteran that's in special coverage on heard voices similar come, saudi arabia dismisses long running allegations on the roll. and then $911.00 clean jennings on wealth comes washington's decision to release classified files are enough later in the program. 9 days after the rushed us polite from afghan, less than the country has a new government in waiting. it consist mostly of hard line talib militants. on the u. s. a, it's in no rush to recognize the new regime said the white house nodded. it has little option, but to work with the terror group they went to war against 20 years ago. their new acting interior minister is her county network care at the wanted for
9:08 am
a bombing that killed think 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 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. to tell about unveiled its all meal and trim government. on wednesday the military will be led by the son of the taliban fonder. on the interior minister is a militant wanted in the u. s. for some deadly bombings, including a 2017 truck blast and cable. but killed
9:09 am
a 150 people. the taliban leadership will also include members of a us designated tara group. former guantanamo inmates. the offshore prison has been operating f, a, a u. s. military base in cuba. 19 years, not in that time. almost $800.00 people have been held there without charge or trial many subjected to water boarding stress positions and sleep deprivation. john curry arco a former c. i a analyst who lifted the lid on abuse of interrogations in guantanamo talk to r t earlier. he still stands by his decision to speak guide. 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.
9:10 am
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 know, 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 goes to show you that this was another intelligence failure in
9:11 am
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
9:12 am
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 carrie acco taken us through the meanwhile, the united nations human rights body has worn enough. yellowstone is facing total collapse and basic services with food and life saving it. but to reload it estimates at least $600000000.00 in aid will be needed by the end of the year to present a catastrophe. un also reports, nearly half of afghanistan's population of 38000000 needs humanitarian aid. among them are 3 and a half 1000000, internally displaced by conflict. the red cross president peter mar, travel to the country, visited medical facilities. before meeting with the new afghan government, he talked to our, to the on the one side,
9:13 am
you see all that these are the remnants of war. you see these camps, distorted vehicles, military vehicles. you see this traction where fighting has taken place, including in some of the cities like classical regard 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. he's a very substantive conversation with him. self and with some of his closer age and collaborators in order to ensure that the humanitarian space, which is needed for
9:14 am
a good, impactful, and mutually 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. a lot of people talking about this next story. a doctor in miami is making headlines after a 9 thing. she won't treat to anyone in person who hasn't had a coven vaccine. doctor linda motorist 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, so 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 send for me. the doctor also said her decision complies with ethical standards because she still offering phone
9:15 am
appointments, exempting people who can't get vaccinated on medical grounds with a highly contagious delta variant of cobra. it's still a concern, dr. morrison. he joins the global chorus of those calling for a greater vaccination. push my colleague new harvey, 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 intention control precautions and take care of all patients. in fact, it was coded and not vaccinated or not can understand this daughters getting frustrated because then she is. she wants to deal with people. she wants to help
9:16 am
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. look, 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 by the media. i think there was a b, b. c presenter who got a blood clot from a vaccination and di me. so we've 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. you get a blood clot and dies from. they said 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 we've given this vaccine to more people in a short period of time before we know have the best experience,
9:17 am
not only in our own country, but around the world with this fact. we know how it works. it's not perfect, but it sure is very, very good. and we all took it, it could really poured the further spread of this 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 a chip in it, but he's new to the this is an experiment. lack seen, he's not an experimental vaccine 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 we've got people who actually have
9:18 am
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, could be creating our country, you know, they're talking all if you have enough vaccination. it's like in apartheid stage. it isn't a part of it. we can't let 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 and receiving the vaccine. one of the many debates and discussions surrounding covert right after a short break as well here in art, see the messaging service. what's up again on fire. we're a part of lead ditching, a pledge to protect its users private data. we break done the implications
9:19 am
the the, 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 transgression mechanism of your money through the government, into those who own these bonds. 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,
9:20 am
you know, 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, what are the car you want your name as these? these are getaways. ah hello again. as we approached the 20th anniversary of $911.00, the sodium bassy in washington sees it once classified documents relating to that 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 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
9:21 am
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 the 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,
9:22 am
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 hasn't 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 certainly left
9:23 am
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. another story to bring you today. the messaging service, what's up prides itself on advanced encryption technology, which supposedly keeps your messages private. but it turns out most users are handing over far more data to the parent company facebook than thought here. so our team, dmitri 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 keep thing, hundreds of millions in fines for privacy violations. and that's after numerous
9:24 am
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 and 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 user's
9:25 am
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'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 are focused 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 had been reported by users. they also allegedly share all the information they have with the justice department. apparently, what's ab 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 american people had the
9:26 am
right to know what was occurring with the treasury. and that just was a national security issue and that american lives were in jeopardy. instead of the government doing their job, they decided to come to 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 like 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,
9:27 am
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. some news updates from across the globe. now a fire house killed at least 10 people and injured many more of a mix shift cove in 1900 hospital in north macedonia. the prime minister described it of a huge tragedy for the balkan nation. fire officials say the structure was full of flour. val plastics allowing the flames to spread rapidly while clashes have
9:28 am
a rough day in the west bank at rallies in support of palestinian prisoners. this was the scene in bethlehem overnight said comes after 6 inmates escaped from the jail in northern israel using an underground tunnel. a large scale man hunt is ongoing. and l g b t. solidarity rallies have swept madrid. after on the ledge knife attacked on a gay man, spanish police up launched a hate crime prob upgrade people who reportedly surrounded the 20 year old and someday taunting and stopping him, cried to the streets with banners denouncing homophobia. on the monday, just just really on facebook are again going toe to toe over at tech privacy concerns been bused, analyzes, and moments whether there will be a knock out blow this time around or just stomach occasional job. truly. that's next.
9:29 am
the look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings. accept where's the short or conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. at the point obviously is too great truck rather than fear i would take on various jobs with artificial intelligence. real, somebody with demon the robot must protect its phone existence with the
