the the, the, the, the, the, on the 20th anniversary of the 911 terror attack, the f. b. i has released classified documents on their probe into those who carried the atrocity. also this report suggest us mistakenly targeted in african aid work in a drain strike, killing 10 members of one family. it's our we hear from a former american trading operator who tells us of his own experiences of killing innocent people. every shot that we turn like they're cheering, congratulating each other. they're high fiving each other. people are getting promoted because of this stuff. me was me more in our review of the week, a series of late con concern messages from the u. s. military refill the panic if

the withdrawal from afghanistan with troops unable to rescue desperate american citizen form a special for his soldier who share the encrypted messages gives us his take on what happened. our biggest problem when getting people out actually in the u. s. government, it's actually not the we've seen the military lead people behind the gate. us military was not letting even civilian americans with back courts, american passports. the british prime minister admits to breaking a key election promised by hiking taxes to fix the short fall in health and social care fund. ah, hello. well, can you watch in the weekly here on the international top story this out of the f. b, i has released a previously classified document on each probe into the $911.00 attacks victims. families have long been clamoring for the records to be made public in the hope of

implicating saturday arabia 20 years after 911. they do claim that the latest papers back up the case. so let's discuss this further detail with to meet you probably could joins me in the studio to meet just run through them. the key points made in this report and also explain why it's being released snap. well, the whole thing about this report, what details is basically an interview with saudi national, who apparently worked at a conference in los angeles because he was applying to for a citizenship in this interview because apparently had contact with some saudi nationals who apparently allegedly assisted 2 of the hijackers that perpetrated the 911 attack asked for why it's being released now. well, basically, the binding ministration has been under pressure to release these documents. the families that are suing saudi arabia, sick money or compensation for damages occurred in the $911.00 attacks. have basically said that biden would not be welcome at any memorial unless she releases documents detailing the f b. i investigation and the case. we had great hope that president biden to

campaigned on bringing truth and trust, back to the oval office would value the lives and sacrifices of america, citizens over diplomatic relations with a country accused of mass murder. we cannot in good faith and with the veneration to those last sick and injured welcome, the president to a hallowed grounds until he fulfills his commitment well after this pressure biden, although not in direct response that issue in order for investigations of the f, b i in the 911 tag to be released now, one from now to wait for 6 months. basically, within the next 6 months, i will be more documents released. and this was the 1st document released on the day of the anniversary. although this document has been having a redacted and most of these investigations when they are released are heavily redacted. and many experts, including a former c, h e. have said that this won't actually reveal that much. i suspect that the families and not going to get the kind of satisfactory answers about the role of

saudi arabia with regards to this attack. in terms of reaction then to me see what the family said about this. well, the families with this 1st document seems to be happy. they've actually said that basically this is the 1st big step into proving their case against the saudi arabia government. now the saudi secrets are exposed and it is well past time for the kingdom till own up to its officials rolls in, murdering thousands on american soil. now they seem happy, but saudi arabia themselves have obviously denied any connection to the $911.00 attacks. and we've actually encouraged more investigations to be public for, to clear, basically any blame against the saudi arabia government. you said earlier to make sure that this all seems to revolve around and employee saturday mc in los angeles . why the interest particularly in him? well basically the interest in him is because he is interview with the f. b. i has

detailed his encounters with all by me who is one of the people who already been revealed in previous investigation. reports to have been linked to, to hijackers who perpetrated the attack, he apparently provided logistic support, financial support, and basically this interview and this report details how, by you me, was treater at the embassy who was apparently held in high regard. he was apparently not an official authority of person, but he was still somebody important apparently according to this interview. so that's basically the main points of this investigation. but overall, i mean generally speaking that doesn't seem to be, does there any thing in there that could definitely incriminate saturday or ab drivers? no, not really. i again, the report is really heavily redacted. so it's kind of unclear what like the title of the names of the people being interviewed even. but no, there is no official direct link to any officials of the government on the saudi

government. there is, i mean, there were one of the things the families have said that this allegedly proved that there was some sort of financing from okayed or from the saudi government to these terrorists. but this report doesn't show any of that. it could have been as pocket money. there was some financing, obviously like to help these terrorists who are posing as students like to get bosses find places to live. but there is no direct proof that the saudi government was involved. i suppose i was more documents to be released. you could argue that could be something that's revealed in the future over the next 6 months. if a so yeah, it's been 20 years since the attack every year, every other year we see more reports coming out. but still it seems like the, the picture isn't bad. clear at all. maybe within the next 6 months, more documents, but we'll have some bomb shell regulations. but this 1st report doesn't seem to have any like new incriminating evidence or anything like that. okay, all right. thanks set to meet me for that i was to meet re power new footage suggests the u. s. stroke strike comple intended for terrorists killed an aide

worker loading his car with water. 10 civilians died in the attack including 7 children. the end of last month, us forces said that the mans vehicle matched the description of one used by the terrorist group, isis k. they also said there was a large, secondary blast after the drain strike suggesting that he was transporting the explosives. he turns out that was a force that claim, according to the investigation by the new york times the work had even been employed by the american n g o. well, there are any similar fights and victims of the 20 year campaign us campaign in afghanistan is we discover in our in depth investigation on heard 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. now our latest report, we took

a brand and bryan's who flew predator drones for the u. s. military to help pay for his education. he spoke to us about his own personal experiences which include his belief that he killed innocent men. after my 1st shot, i took the 3 innocent men killed that i believe in this end. i called my mother afterwards and cried. and she told me that it was good that i felt bad about it, because if i felt good about it, i would just be another psychopath. ah no other way. and again, my education and the military showed up when day and i will pay for your education if you serve for a minimum of 4 years. and how can anyone turn that down? ah,

sergeant comes down and turns around now goes in the military crater, actually since your job is to kill people and break things. so you got all these young enlisted deeds and girls. galvan guys who are out of high school have no experience in anything. who are now basically video game snipers for months of training, made put in the position to make these decisions. the are the 1st 3 months. i was in active missions. i watched enemy forces die. friendly force and die, energy force die, and then innocence, innocent people die. and so i got to see like the impact on everybody.

ah, [000:00:00;00] ah, ah mentor, degredation with the proper term. every shot that we took, like they're cheering their congratulating each other. they're high fiving each other. people are getting promoted because of this stuff. it's like a withering away of who you are. i are hunting a man named and was lucky. he was

a mom from p. m. and i was told one day going in that president obama himself was up and give the order himself to me. and i got this euphoric feeling. the death of the lock is a major blow to all kind of most active operational ophelia. and then his 16 year old son was killed 2 weeks later and it drones, right? when i asked some of the people that i knew why they struck me or do a romanella lucky because i didn't want them to become a figurehead. the 1st thing that trump did in office was kill and our, our lockheed 8 year old daughter. we stay with the terrorist. you have to take out their families, maybe to them, it seems practical, but to me it seems evil. ah,

there was an incident involved killing of civilians. they might have been to new zealand, why civilians in afghanistan. so president obama got on television himself and was saying it was not the fault of intelligence or the military leadership. it was defaulted to drone operators that cause this and that really upset me because we get no intel. i felt like he was blaming me, commander in chief of the united states military, where it's pointing a little me and saying, oh, all those things that were other people's fault and actually your phone, the ah, i didn't know who i was anymore. i didn't know what i believed anymore. i didn't know my purpose anymore. i almost kill myself with a 9 millimeters 6 p 2266,

our german law enforcement weapon. and the only reason i don't is because of him. like he said, he just wants he wanted to go for a walk and i'm sitting there with the guy in my hand and i ready to do it. and he's just like, dad, let's go for what would go for walk. i'm going to go for one. i . ready ready will have more storage and people whose lives were forever changed by america. strongest will. that's in our special series on heard voices, which can also watch online. more americans relax, leave afghanistan on thursday. the taliban, giving them the green light to flee on charter flights. almost 10 days after the u . s. so the official end if the u. s. bedroll many more, however, remain as the biden administration, grapples with the fall line with a series of leave messages. now shedding lights on its failed efforts to get it citizens and,

and the american citizens. yes. all of them we are abandoning american citizens. well, those tests say which have been verified. so we haven't been verified, were disclosed by michael young. he's a war correspondent and former us special forces soldier and was among the civilians working with the military and private networks to rescue stranded americans. he gave us details of his conversations with a high ranking us army officer. that colonel was not physically present, but he was an contacts, major general kristavia you who, who was the combatant commander on the ground. and so that colonel wasn't physically there. in fact, he was very frustrated. you can see from that tax, there was more tax those while he was really demonstrating a lot of frustration at one point he said, can you read the gate and other intended with the car and get in? i mean, he wanted to rescue those people and you know, he, i hope that his tags don't cause him any problems. he's the kind of general we need . no, he didn't want to follow those orders. he wanted to get them out. we had 3 jets on

the ground that were private jets that were paid for by a friend of mine's team. his name is rick clay, and his team had paid for 3 jets. they were on the ground civilian jets waiting. and the us military was not letting even civilian americans with passports, american passports, our biggest problem on getting people out actually is the u. s. government. it's actually not the taliban. i know that sounds crazy, but the biggest problem is not without the taliban. i'm actually, it's in some cases of actually helped us, you can even make up the stuff. this is like something for a weird movie. so taliban is saying that us forces happy to come and get them, or call us to let them through. nobody can make up the stuff. i don't care who's fault it is the department of state or the military. it's all of your fault. you didn't let them in period. they were at the gate. then of course, the next day we haven't pentagon in the white house, they're going know, you know, all american citizens who wanted to get in could have gotten in. but they couldn't

actually make it to the airport and were saying, excuse my language, i don't know if i can say this on russian tv. they definitely were at the gate period or michael young. they're also released the conversation with contract as who were also in comple, one of them claiming that $45.00 americans, including women and children, were unable to enter the airport even if they had us passports with them. source claim this some were beaten and assaulted in their efforts to get in and added to that. he was asking senior officers for clarification on how they could be helped as they faced a terrifying weight. however, his commanders apparently refused to step in. now another contract to wrote us generous new their citizens worst side the airport, but still wouldn't grant access even proposed paying. other governments, such as the u. k. to help lift americans and confirm that general mar millie, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff,

had made the decision not to open the gate. can you confirm general milly was mentioned by name as the leader there is condemning them to death. yes, i can confirm that mentioned by name. while the picture coming from those conversations is in stark contrast to the narrative that came from the biden administration. they continually stress that the situation was under control and that no american citizens would be left behind. what we're doing every single minute of every single hour of every single day is working to create safe passage for all civilians, including the afghans who work for us to the airport to get them on planes and get them out. i think they're responsible to say americans are stranded, they are not. we are committed to bringing americans who want to come home homes completed. one of the biggest err lists in history, extraordinary success. and this mission was due to the incredible skill, bravely and selfless courage of united states,

military and our diplomats and intelligence professionals will often evacuation manion wrote this scathing letter to the armies high command, highlighting some of the missteps. specifically, the us nationals were abandoned at the gates, while 3 empty jets paid for by volunteers were actually waiting for them. we asked the pentagon for clarity on this, although they declined to comment. i don't believe so. the lack of transparency does actually make matters worse. that's what americans are saying. we leave no one behind. right. and right now we've seen the military leave people behind the gate. but it's, it's a sin to say, well, i'm just going to live because it's humiliating. so we just have to leave behind and lie about it, know we're going to try to get them out and we're getting a lot of them out right now. the military in the department state are in our way, at this point. so in addition to leaving people behind, they are stopping us from getting them out. now, department state isn't our way. we want the military and the government to get out

of our way. we don't need their help anymore. i mean, now that we're getting success is civilians because you know, we can do it. we don't need them, we're faster, we're more efficient, and we don't have the bureaucracy and we're just smarter than they are. so the home on the weekly a candidate for the french presidency is calling for his version of rex. it's telling his countrymen to free themselves from the clutches of the european union. have the details just ah, i the thing in the koran attributed to the brother mohammed the dreams of threefold. sometimes they represent divine guidance, sometimes sorrow from the devil, and sometimes there about the conflicts of dated living and past events. this applies also to women's rights in afghanistan, today,

encouraged in the past to live out their dreams of being fully fledged human beings, african women. and now being told that this amount to satanic possession when they turn to. and i'm, what can they count in this time of existential struggle? ah, join me every 1st day on the alex summon, 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 the the, the, the, ah, welcome back, the weekly. now the british prime minister has admitted breaking

a key pledge of his election manifesto by raising personal taxes to the highest level. in decades. we promise not to raise the rates of income tax, national insurance, or v a t. this is a tax guarantee, it will protect the income. so hardworking families across the next parliament, the no conservative government, no conservative government to speak every once to raise taxes. and i will be honest with heights i kept yes, i accepted the brakes. i manifesto commitment, which is not something which is not something i do likely, but a global pandemic within the will. this follows and 18 months spending bonanza, g t k. with 19 that seen the u. k. national debt spiral. the 1st year at the pandemic . the government borrowed 300000000000 pounds, a large part of which was to fund the workers furlough skein, bowers johnson cold. she stays tax on like a difficult but responsible decision needed to fix the funding. sure,

for in health and social care were beginning the biggest catch up program in the history of the an h. s. the levy will share the cost as fairly, as possible between people and businesses because we all benefit from a well supported and a chest and all businesses benefit from a healthy workforce. the shuttle work in pension secretary, jonathan reynolds, reacting to the prime minister, essentially saying the way the government try to frame this issue of, for example, people living longer and having healthier lives and insensitive way of dealing with what are very real issues for the elderly. when it comes to that pensions, the governments cases of the 1st day or in the pandemic have produced a statistical aberration. i reject the presentation of this issue as the source of intergenerational tension or unfairness because we all have an interest in ensuring that there's

a decent state pension in the future. we would never present increase longevity as a problem. the pretends to the prime minister is only here because it's time to make is not going to wash. he's putting a sticking plaster over gaping wounds which his party inflicted. he made the comment of social care before the pandemic, and he said he would pay for it without raising taxes before the pandemic. now this is of course, the 2nd manifest pledge that the prime minister has broken within a day. the 2nd of those being an announcement to raise national insurance contributions, which they the government that is promised not to do in the lead up to that election at the end of $29.00 teams. so the government, the chancellor, the treasury all with a balancing act to do to have tried to please if not all sectors of society as many as possible when it comes to the agenda, not just in the u. k. the so called global gender build back and better point, and slogan the bar, as johnson repeated again today,

how much was reporting now after breakfast? could frank sit be next? because a candidate for the french presidency is now calling on his country to seize back control. i'm free itself from the clutches of the european union, and it's a big name and politics to charlotte davinsky explains from paris. he was the man that was losing the charge when it came to those rig negotiation thing was the man that was in charge of insuring a victory. you fool that you and during many years old briggs that he was the man that kept saying you is the gold standard doing those discussions. and even if she was the u. k, you trying to cherry pick was wanting from the youth. now we should volunteer is telling a very different story. he's sounding for the presidency, hearing from elections, take place in about a level. and the thing he is saying is shocking. many events in the phones

yesterday about leaving out more influencing european counterpart. it was germany is doing and when it came to the migration of the rules rules, what do you have to say? we cannot do all this without having regained our legal sovereignty. being permanently threatened by a ruling or a condemnation at the level of the european court of justice. so the european convention on human rights or by an interpretation by our own judicial institutions . the reaction as i was in fact, some people were so shocked about these comments. they thought the face was fake news. how could someone like me? should vanya see such things. the policy is a junior european affairs. mr. clement ball said that he couldn't believe that some of these who is truly committed to you will, will be able to say such things. others suggested the mission volunteer had essentially imploded entire career. michelle bonnie: a is giving a master class on how to destroy your career and legacy in the desperate hope of

looking electable can elect for that just straight up dislikes you regardless. well, bonia has defended his common thing. the idea of a constitutional field would only apply when it comes to you repeat calls on issues such as migration, but his attempts to defend his comments seem to have made things worse. you can only how break this she is, has been reacting to this. here are just some of the comments. this is breathtaking . the hypocrisy the same. michel bonnie who doing the brakes it negotiations taught to belittle the u. k for demanding control over our courts and our borders. now he wants the same for france for exit. this is ironic in the extreme bonnie: a preaching the merits of national sovereignty to cover the over powerful e. u and european court of human rights. who born is true feelings. it seems about you in about european institutions couldn't have come the worst climb to the floor . at the moment,

russell is trying to reschedule supremacy when it comes to issues of the countries such as hungary and poland. even seeing some questions being raised by germany called to school court, and he's coming to from meetings to maybe to, to have more influence when it comes to the european union to counterbalance the influence of germany. just suggests that the relationships within the block goes cosy. i think would have you believe which many will wonder if this does mean that there are trouble voices hash been scheme reporting in paris for us. so that's how the weekly looking so far, they will be back again though with more stories for you and about half and the in the, in the september,

the 11th 2001 day that reshape to the modern world. i remember watching the world trade center burn on a tv at the cia and i was standing there like this just looking at it. and a colleague of mine was standing next to me and he said, my god, did they have any idea what they've done? we're going to kill everybody now. everybody, the, the live tv images promote the us into declaring its war on terror. they've begun to bomb african villages and homes and get people hurt and, and killed the main goal of destroying terrorism and then was it achieved? yes. and no, okay, to essentially no longer exists. good for us,

but there are certainly other terrorist groups that are worst that are in the me i don't a wealthy jewel deport. there's a saying in the garage attributed, you profit mohammed the readings all the time. they're represented divides guidance some time. * from the java, and sometimes they are about the conflict of daily living impact to them. this applies for practically to women in afghanistan. encouraged in the past to leave

out that dream that we flash to human beings that are being told by the college on this amount to nothing more. but they panic, possession, who walk, they count on in this time of a truly existential struggle. well, to discuss now joined the swell kabul by what was the raj executive director of athens women, field development center mr. osh. it's a great personal and professional privilege for me to talk to you. thank you very much for being available. thank you for having me. your show, i really appreciate it. thanks. i know that you had a chance to travel to the united states this summer, and yet you chose to return to your country. you have a sign of their time with thousands and thousands of your countrymen and women are desperately trying to please. why did you make that decision and was
