a doctor in florida causes outrage by refusing to treat patients who happened to have a coven vaccine, leisure from voices who strongly opposed under agree with the metrics can understand this doctor's getting frustration, who she wants to help people. and they haven't even bothered to have the facts. and i think we need to respect people who are poor parts so far, refusing the vaccine, and trying to lure them into persuading them, making them comfortable in receiving the vaccine. i live from moscow. this is our team. my name's you know, neil on 30 minutes of news on news start, know, almost 2 decades have passed since the horrors of $911.00, the event that triggered america's war on terror. we're continuing to investigate
10:02 am
the enduring impact, those conflicts of how on the lives of millions in our special project on heard voices. the will use all tools at our disposal. they killed our children to united states was bringing people to 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 in action. but even for those who did make it many who were left with lasting trauma, let's hear the account of trevor colt who served in the british army for 20 years, including 4 tours and afghan. i can 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 i was with don't really talk to each other anymore. i mean there and to try to delete
10:03 am
it and move away from all. but 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 and stuff you people get upset of it, things today that don't need it. i want so i can my coffee. i really just drink the
10:04 am
coffee when i 1st went to the gallery on, we were told that we were going to burn the poppy fields to the plan was to work and do not, not planned, change 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 and situations. a great danger salinas are very good at taking orders and just getting on with it. i'm not questioning orders, but as you go to the years and you mature and you start to sort of have to bring the things yourself and realize, okay, why are we here? what are we doing? we know, looking at gast, i don't think it was a pointless exercise. what's happening in the south of afghanistan, the redlands, about the taliban trying to get back power the way back in the tell about had already got id in the grind that we'd already
10:05 am
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, 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 high threat 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, check vetted, and ended more than 15000 people to safety in less than 2 weeks. i mean it's been a complete mess, had by ins and ministration worked with the rest of his allies. it would have been,
10:06 am
we were going to leave anyway, but we could have done up a systematic approach. for instance. you do even the top middle of the 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 do is flyers your military and angle. what about the one with the civilians? tom, i've got shinnecock stuck at home, be $600016.00 weapon systems, 3 stars and bombs left behind. so that's munitions that can be used for 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 lost too many people for situation which we just gave up on. the highly decorated former british army officer there at trevor cult. well, throughout the week we will be speaking with more people. both soldiers and civilians whose lives were,
10:07 am
are vocally altered by americans the longest war tomorrow. we'll hear the testimony of a 911 widow and a u. s. war veteran center, a special coverage on heard voices look. saudi arabia dismisses long running allegations on its role in the $911.00 plane hijackings, and welcomes washington's decision to release classified files. more. enough's 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 taliban militants. and the u. s. a's, it's a no rush to recognize the new regime. that said, the white house they did has little option, but to work with the terror group america went to war against 20 years ago. their new acting interior minister is tying network care these wanted for a bombing,
10:08 am
the kill people including an american these believe to 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 afghan 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, the telephone and failed its all meal interim government. on wednesday, the military will be led by the son of the telephone's fonder. on the interior administers a militant wanted in the u. s. for some deadly bombings, including a 2017 truck blast and kaboom that killed 150 people. the taliban leadership will
10:09 am
also include members of a u. s. designated terror. root comedy, army former guantanamo inmates. the off shore prison has been operating of a u. s. military base in cuba for 19 years. 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. and john kerry alco a former cia analyst who lifted the lead on abuse of interrogations in guantanamo talked to r t. earlier, he still stands by his decision. this be guard. 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
10:10 am
hypocritical, i can understand why any country would want to emulate the united states in a situation like that. the end of this 20 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, present inside and 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,
10:11 am
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 stop crimes are being committed and then we have to see those crime prosecuted and see the people who carried out
10:12 am
those crimes punished. we haven't seen that in many, many years. another aspect to bring you on this, the united nations human rights body has one that afghan, the standards facing a total collapse in basic services with food and a life saving age about to run. i don't estimates that at least $600000000.00 in aid will be needed by the end of the year to prevent a catastrophe. un office reports nearly half of the population of 38000000 needs, humanitarian aid, among them are 3 and a half 1000000 internally displaced by conflict. the red cross president peter maurer, travel to the country and visited medical facilities before meeting with the new afghan government. he assured some of his experience with our team on the one side, you will see all that these are remnants of war. you see these camps,
10:13 am
these vehicles, military vehicles. you'll see the struction where fighting has taken place, including in some of the cities like rush and others. and on the other hand, you see an 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 marla about the deputy of the now we're now in government. he's a very substantive conversation with him self and with some of his clothes, their age 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
10:14 am
a lot of understanding and also good sense that we need further dialogues as we move forward. you know, a doctor in miami is making headlines after announcing she will treat anyone in person who hasn't had a coven vaccine. doctor linda. maurice see me 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 adds, her decision complies with ethical standards. she believes because she's still offering phone appointment, sound exempting people who can't get vaccinated on medical grounds with the highly contagious delta variant of cove. it's still
10:15 am
a concern. dr. morris senior joins the global course of those calling for a greater vaccination plush. my colleague new 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 intention control precautions to take care of all patients infected with coded and not vaccinated or not. and understand where this daughter'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 presenting themselves, wanted to present themselves, her medical center. and they haven't even bothered to have the vac. local,
10:16 am
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 by the media. i think there was 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 know if you want to be a lucky ones, you get a blood clot and dies from this, and 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, the before, you know, have the best experience, not only in our own country, but around the world with this fact. we know how it works. it's not perfect,
10:17 am
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. well, i from the wild conspiracies that bill gains, he put a chip next. what he's to the, this is an experiment, collect seen he's not an experimental vaccine. this vaccine that's being tested. what about the societal impact? couldn't we end 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 then and it with a real societal split and kind of to tear society where you've got people who actually have a lot less freedom because they refused explanation versus mandation. i don't really want to be mandatory. there shouldn't be a need for that. people should be selfless, not selfish. the creation, our country,
10:18 am
you know, they're talking all if you have another vaccination, it's like in apartheid state. it isn't a part we combs and let these people who got the stupid ideas. well, this so called hesitant. i think we need to respect the people who, who are so far, refusing the vaccine and trying to lower them into persuading them, making them comfortable in receiving the vaccine. later in the program, the messaging service what's up, is again under fire, for apparently ditching a pledge to protect its users private data, the implications of we breakdown few moments ah long when i would show the same wrong when i
10:19 am
just don't i mean yesterday out the same because the after an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves with the parts we choose to look for common ground in 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 ah,
10:20 am
20 minutes into the program. welcome back. an afghan refugees who recently arrived in the u. s. sounds been slammed on line for pointing out the quality of the food other refugee facility in texas. many accuse the interpreter of being ungrateful for his rescue. i meant actuality is one of the many gun if i q e to the u. s. who, after arrival, where transferred to military bases or run the country. and these not alone and complaining about the conditions and some of the facilities with one recent post describing them as deplorable. just following it's hasty withdrawal from scam us down, the u. s. has so far taken in some 25000 afghans. more than 65000 were evacuated from the country, but many are currently being housed in
10:21 am
u. s. military bases in europe and asia. america's refugee resettlement agencies have been told to expect at least 50000 more arrivals. so let's get some perspective on all this now in cross line to lucky buller luck. money, a former afghan interpreter himself who works for the refugee services of texas. hello to you. give us a sense nike, bill of what the situation's been like. have you been able to cope with the numbers arriving? are many more expected then i think so much for today . as you mentioned that there's a large number of doctors that are being hosted in the military bases right now for dinner processing time. so we're expecting to get a large number here in the mission use and we are actually ready for name and been taken planted,
10:22 am
and in the community the people reach out to be supportive for them. so we're, we're waiting on them to come over to houston, texas. what are people from most of the immediate needs when you meet the well, the beginning, of course they are new and they don't know anything. so we trying to help them with the 1st thing that we trying to help them with. we want to make sure that they have a farming a place where they can live, so they can, you know, that's one thing. and then we welcome to airports. then we provide him training and we provide social services and we also provide training in educational planning. and there are a lot of services that they needed and being working with refugee for a long time in the refugee, which i'm going to be knowledge,
10:23 am
know what services they needed and what are the requirements for them to be qualified for services. then the issue we spoke about earlier, you may have heard us one refugee was slammed as ungrateful for pointing it online . the food that he was given in text is, what is your response to, to that story? well, when we, we don't control over and the ac was been giving over in the military bases. but when they come to acted especially easton, we have a lot of a lot of pages restaurants. but really that we want to make sure that their culture wise and religious. why that there's something that the supposed to get it. so we trying to help them, for example, if people coming from and it's under a lot of restaurants, a lot of that we can try to help in getting food from beer. so i was declined now when,
10:24 am
but i'm not sure what's been giving in the notes yet. what's your sense? because you're perhaps better place than most to give an answer in this of the help from the state, the federal government, to, to people coming in has there been enough help from the government? will be talking about a broad asap. you'd price the, they've been getting a so we're from the government, they've been getting a financial support and we do it. come in agencies, we're trying to provide support for them. that's what we're here for. we want to make sure that they're, they're sufficient. i know they're programs and know they're getting some temporary financial support, but we, our job is to make sure that by the end of those services, they're self sufficient in terms of finding their own job, working and knowing the area what they're run it by. and in all the resources that they're available in the east and then what is clearly that you've been incredibly
10:25 am
busy your yourself and i'm sure a lot of people are certainly thankful to you, not people like money, former african interpreter and worker at the refugee services a tech has thank you. thank you so much. the messaging service, what's up, you know, prides itself on advanced encryption technology, something we hear a lot about, which supposedly keeps your message is private, of course. but it turns out most users are hunting over far more data to the apps per company facebook than thought. here's ortiz, dmitri polk. every one 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,
10:26 am
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 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, its 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
10:27 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 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 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 have been reported by users. they've 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 prison for leaking sensitive information to the media, describing how dirty money flows through us. banks edwards has maintained. she
10:28 am
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
10:29 am
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 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 helping us make sense of the big numbers and some big scandals to from the business world. next it's another visit to the kaiser report studios. max and stacy are here in moments eastern the.
10:30 am
