9:00 am
and see, see what that battle has done to him. i feel like julian's life might be coming to an end. we are in a conflict situation with the largest and most powerful employer in such a situation. it's remarkable, survive on this account until the 20th anniversary of the 911 terror attack, the f. b i is released, the declassified document that into who carried out the atrocity with the document to essentially repeating known facts. so ever adding no information on possible, the involvement report suggest to us mistakenly targeted an african aid work and it drove strike, killing 10 members of one family. this coming up to me here from a former american drone operator who tells us of his own experiences of killing innocent people. every shot that we turn like they're cheering,
9:01 am
they're congratulating each other. they're high fiving each other. people are getting promoted because of this stuff. meanwhile, in our news review of the week, a series of leaks unconfirmed messages from the pentagon revealed a panic because the withdrawal from i've got to start the troops on naval to rescue desperate american citizens while form a special forces soldiers shed, the encrypted messages gives us his thoughts about what happened. our biggest problem of getting people out actually is the us government is actually not the todd man. we've seen the military lead people behind the gate. the us military was not letting even civilian americans with passports, american passports, on the british prime minister admits to breaking a key election promised by high king taxes to fix a short fall in health and social care funding. ah
9:02 am
oh its wont cost for the new most go time either sunday afternoon, the 12th of september life martinez will views h q moscow. kevin? oh, in here for the next were the weekly or under put the stories the last 7 days. what's happening right now, and that's where we starting the f b. i then, as released to previously classified documents on his prob, into the 911 attacks victims, families have long been clamoring for the records to be made public with many calling for more of a focus on saudi arabia. as possible. involvement, though a closer examination, this new document contains, it seems pretty much the same faxes in the previous one released a few years ago. doesn't shed anymore light so many role of authorities in ria, they've denied it all along. that must be said, of course, the torture dmitri poke is applied through this latest report, a se plowed through, because a lot of it's redacted as a show you've seen there. you mentioned earlier on. so what are we got new here? if anything in this new document compared to the one that came out a little while, but what is there for the victims? relatives?
9:03 am
technically not that much. really. this is what this report is. basically, it's an interview with a certain individual. his name is redacted. that was conducted back in 2015 and this person had allegedly apparently had contact several times with several saudi nationals who had apparently assisted to hijackers that were involved in the 911 attacks. but what does really, if information that we already knew, it was just more details about that information. i guess he detailed the phone calls, he had where the med restaurants, they went to and stuff like that. some of the pupils mentioned, for example, one of them is all but you, me, he was also mentioned in 2015. we report on the investigation. this 1st apparently worked at he actually worked at he had a high regard, was held in high regard at the authority consulate in los angeles and apparently assisted 2 of the hijackers when they arrived to the us. but this was all detailed back in 20, in the earlier report. and this report, he's just described further as having
9:04 am
a high status among workers in the console without actually working out the consulate then that there was more details about his associate man named button on who apparently also held extremist views and worked and lived next to these hijackers while they were in los angeles, but again, nothing new. again repeating. again all over the years, the families have been begging for more answers as to what exactly went on here on the coast. the timing of this report just 24 hours after the 20th anniversary. i suppose if you are a victim or a victim's family member or loved one, you'd be saying you'd be really hoping for some clear cut new information. otherwise it would same, although maybe the timing is in the meant to the best possible way of sea. metallic, cynical, not to give anything new and to give a report that so redacted what have the families of the victims set about it? well, that's kind of actually odd because the initial reaction from the families was that they're grateful and that they feel that this would actually help their case
9:05 am
against saudi arabia. because of the reminder they're suing. sorry that these families united are suing saudi arabia for damages for their alleged involvement in the 911 attacks are selling them for billions. they've been asking biden, to release these documents to help their case. they've actually been frightened by that would not be welcome at any 911 memorials, unless you release the documents. 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 veneration to those last sick and injured welcome, the president to a hallowed grounds until he fulfills his commitment well, ball of widen, followed on that a commitment and issued an executive order to release documents more documents pertaining to the $911.00 investigation and this was the 1st one and apparently there will be more to come within the next 6 months. but as we saw this,
9:06 am
for example, report is heavily redacted and doesn't shed really any new light. and even the former director of the ca, as really said that these documents, these relations probably won't hold that much. and there's not probably won't be that much information in them. 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. well, this investigation is been going on for 20 years, and the families have been waiting for these answers for 20 years. this new weight is to report doesn't seem to be the bombshell that they were hoping for, but we don't know. we'll see maybe within the next 6 months, something new will happen. but right now, there's not that much, maybe more reaction in from, from american as coolers data and the records we'll see will to the piece of the se, but it, but thanks for now to meet you. great. now next new footage suggests us thrown strong can cobble targeting terrorists killed in fact, an aide worker loading his car with water and 10 civilians also dying and last
9:07 am
month's attack including 7 children. us forces said the mans vehicle much description of one used for the terrorist group, isis k also said there was a large, secondary blast off from the drone strike suggesting that he was transport, he explosive turns out. however, the claim was false. according to an investigation by the new york times, the aid workers even been employed by the american n g o. there are many similar fates, victims of the 20 a u. s. campaign. and i've got this done, as we discover in our in depth investigation series, unheard voices. the will use all tools at our disposal. killed our children, united states was bringing people to watch the site. it was a pointless exercise. in our latest report, we talked to brandon bryant, who flew drones for the us military to help pay for his education. at the time he spoke to us about his own personal experiences,
9:08 am
which includes belief that he killed innocent people. dramatic 1st shot, i took 3 innocent men killed that i believe in this, and 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 i was going to get my education and the military showed up when day and i will pay for your education if you, sir, for a minimum of 4 years. and how can anyone turn that down? i know 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've got all these
9:09 am
young enlisted deeds and girls, 1000 guys who are out of high school, who have no experience in anything who are now basically video game snipers for months of training. made that put in the position to make these decisions. the 1st 3 months, i was inactive missions, i watched enemy forces die friendly forces die and the forces die and then innocence, innocent people die. and so i got to see like the impact on everybody's ah,
9:10 am
ah, ah, ah, mental degredation 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 want all the lucky. he was a mom from p. m and ah, i was told one day going in that president obama himself would stop and give the order himself to me. and i got this euphoric feeling. the
9:11 am
death of the lock is a major blow to all kind of most active operational affiliate. and then his 16 year old son was killed 2 weeks later. and it's striking when i asked some of the people that i knew why they struck me, do a romanella lucky they said that because i didn't want them to become a figure. the 1st thing that trump did in office was kill and or our rockies 8 year old daughter. well we see that was a terrorist. you have to take out their families, maybe to them, it seems practical, but to me it seems evil. oh i 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
9:12 am
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. ready 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 for the go for walk. i'm going to go for
9:13 am
a walk. ah, i could tell you more 1st time stories from people's lives were changed forever by america, the longest floor and continuing special series called unheard voices. we should also catch a line is one of our t dot com more americans were allowed to leave. i've gotten on thursday the telephone giving them the green light than to flee on charter flights. almost 10 days of the official end of the u. s. withdraw many more, the remainder supplied administration grapples with the fall out. and if there is a leak messages is no shedding light on the failed efforts to get his citizens out . and the american citizens. yes, all of them we are abandoning american citizens. those texts which haven't been verified or disclosed by god called michael, y'all need a war correspondent and former us special forces soldier. i was among the civilians working with the military and private networks to try to rescue stranded americans
9:14 am
. he gave us more details about his conversation with a high ranking us army officer that colonel was not physically present, but he was an contacts, major general, chris donahue 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 you said 10, you ran the gate and other intended with the car and get in. i mean, he wanted to rescue those people and, and 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,
9:15 am
american passports, our biggest problem on getting people out actually is the u. s. government. it's actually not the todd man. i know that sounds crazy, but the biggest problem is not valid in italy. man, i'm actually it's in some cases of actually helped us. you can't 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 beginning. then of course, the next day we have a 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. hopefully not that it may be, but while i call you on also release conversations with contractors who are in cobble one of them, claiming that 45 americans, including women and children,
9:16 am
were unable to get into that airport. even if they had us force with the source for the claim that some were even beaten and assaulted just for trying to get it and added that he was asking senior officers for clarification on how they could be help as they faced the terrifying wait outside the future uncertain, however, seems his command has apparently refused to step in at the time, leaving those still stuck outside them to meet their fate. there's another contract who wrote the us general's knew the citizens were stuck outside the airport and yet still would not grant them access through the gate even proposed paying other governments such as the u. k. to help her lift americans and confirm to the general mar millie chair of the u. s. joint chiefs of staff had made the decision to not open that gate. can you confirm general milly was mentioned by name as the leader that is condemning them to death. yes,
9:17 am
i can confirm that mentioned by name the picture coming for those conversations. this is stark contrast the narrative from the bible ministration, the white as kept insisting that the situation was under control. and 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 a 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. half the evacuation michael, y'all wrote a scathing letter to the army command highlighting some of the missteps o c. saw them specifically the us nationals were abandoned at the gates. well,
9:18 am
3 empty jets apparently were waiting. they're paid for by volunteers. not full. we asked the pentagon for clarification, so father declined to comment. young believes the lack of transparency is made 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 where 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 as 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. you're
9:19 am
watching our to international, the global broadcast from russia. thank you for taking the time to check in. we appreciate it here. well, recap more stories the week. this is a biggie. a candidate for the french president see calling for his version of breck said, telling citizens that free themselves from the clutches of the, you know, unless the michelle, bonnie had to tell you both about the so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have is crazy, plantation let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. developments only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk
9:20 am
9:21 am
level of 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. no conservative government, no conservative government to speak every once to raise taxes. and i will be honest with her. i kept yes, i accepted the break. i manifesto commitment, which is not something which is not something i do likely, but a global pandemic within the follows may team on spend the bonanza. because it coby 19 and seen the national debt spiral. 1 in the 1st year of the pandemic, the government borrowed 300000000000 pounds, a large part of which was to fund work, his fellow schemes for his johnson cold. tuesday's tax hike a difficult but responsible decision. he said needed to fix funding shortfall and health for the social care were beginning the biggest catch up program in the
9:22 am
history of the an hfs. 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 pensions. secretary, jonathan reynolds, reacting to the prime minister, essentially. 3 saying the way the government tries 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 their pensions. the governments cases of the for the data and 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
9:23 am
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 of build back a better point. and the slogan, the bars, johnson repeated again today, how much political commentator on to the web tell us a tax hike reflects a responsible government behavior in the panoramic. then i think it is damaging
9:24 am
because of the way it's been job to saw where he's playing 3 times. i make the government says actually dealt with the district course that way it's been spending money. i'm not thinking about the consequences. it's now trying to deal with the consequences by bringing in this additional means, like a mummy term has as the leader of the opposition court. and now today, all the problems we had with the us and with social care interested well before the american off to break sick could for exit be next. well, a candidate for the french presidencies now calling in his country to seize buck controller, free. and so for the group of brussels is big name of politics to a shallow, to bend ski reports from paris. he was the man that was leaving the charge when it
9:25 am
came to the brig negotiation thing was the man that was in charge of insuring a victory for the new. and during many years old briggs that he was the man that kept saying you is the gold standard during those discussions you even accuse the u . k. you trying to cherry pick was wanting from the you. now mission volunteer is telling a very different story. something for the presidency, hearing from election quickly in about a level and the things he is saying is shocking. many events in the south phone yesterday he was leaving out more influencing european counterpart. it was too many is doing. and when it came to migration of what he has to say, we cannot do all this without having regained our legal sovereignty. being permanently frightened by a ruling or a condemnation at the level of the european court of justice. so the european
9:26 am
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 that this was fake news. how could someone like me? should vanya see such things, the policy is junior european affairs. mr. clement born said that he couldn't believe that somebody who was truly committed to europe 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 and the desperate hope of looking electable to elect for that just straight up dislikes you regardless. well, bonia has defended his comment, saying the idea of a constitutional field would only apply when it comes to you. repeat calls on issues such as like, gratian, his attempts to defend his comments seem to me things worse. you can only, can i break that she is, has been reacting to this here just some of the comments. this is breathtaking. the
9:27 am
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 friends for exit. this is ironic in the extreme bonnie: a preaching the merits of national sovereignty to cover the overpower for e. u and european court of human rights who born is through feelings. it seems about the new and about european institutions couldn't have come the worst climb to the book at the moment. brussels is trying to research supremacy when it comes to issues of the poor. countries such as hungary and poland, even seeing some questions being raised by too many calls to school course. and he's call me to phone meetings to maybe to, to have more influence when it comes to the european union to counterbalance the influence of germany. doesn't suggest that the relationships within the block goes
9:28 am
cosy, i think would have you believe which many one day. it does mean that there are troubled waters and that's a snapshot of the way the week just gone, panda and we brought you here in moscow. my name's kevin in for me. thank you for watching this sunday. we got taylor may programs coming up for you and your part of the world up for a quick break. just ahead here on our t and national me. ah, ah, the thing in the koran attributed to the prophet mohammed, the dreams are threefold. sometimes they represent divine guidance, sometimes sorrow from the devil, and sometimes there about the conflicts of daily 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
9:29 am
beings, african women and now being told that this amounts to satanic possession when they turn to and on, what can they count in this time of existential struggle? ah, i have often said transparency for the powerful receipt for the bell. this bit cares about privacy. what people care about is power. antonia and sons is become a symbol of the battles of brevity. information is power. that's what's going on, or a huge struggle with the government's corporations who want to keep information secret and others who democratic rights should be pushed forward. and people have a right to know which ones are do. watch how to help shift the conversation around transparency. see what that battle has done to him. i feel like julian's life might
