12:00 pm
the little bout must protect its own existence with the again, on the 20th anniversary and 11 terror attack, the f. b. i is released the declassified document into who carried out the atrocity with the document though essentially repeating only known fact setting no information on possible saudi involvement report suggest to us to say, can be targeted in africa, aid work in a drug strike, killing 10 members of one family, we hear from a former american drain operator who tells us that his own experience is killing and some people, every shot that we turn like they're cheering their congratulating each other. they're high fiving each other. people are getting promoted because of this stuff.
12:01 pm
i did on these are the week series of lead counsel phone messages from the pentagon, revealed a panic of the withdrawal from i've got with troops unable to rescue desperate american citizens. one form of special forces soldier who shared the encrypted messages with us gives us his thoughts about what happened. our biggest problem with getting people out actually in the u. s. government is actually not the man. we've seen the military people behind the gate. the us military was not letting even civilian americans with passports, american passports. but the british prime minister admits to breaking a key election promised by hiking taxes to fix a shortfall and health and social care funding. ah, by this sunday evening to office and, and the life from us, he's well
12:02 pm
d h q and moscow. kevin, i would like to be with you and thank you for checking in. welcome to the weekly roundup of a top stories. the last 7 days is reported by us to you, including something happening right now. this one then the f. b, i's released the previously classified documents on its probe into the 911 attacks victims, families, and long demanded the records be made public with many calling for more focus on saudi arabia as possible. involvement. however, it's not clear whether the latest document release says anything new, as a discussed with correspondent dmitri polk. this report what it is basically is it's an interview with a saudi national, who was applying for citizenship, who apparently had contexts with 2 saudi nationals who apparently assisted to hijackers while they were in the us. one of the 1st came to hijackers of the 911 plane basically, but a lot of this stuff, a lot of the information regarding this latest report is actually not that new.
12:03 pm
there was already a report declassified report back in 2016. and basically this, the stuff told out in this interview that we got in this report is all the same stuff. it's the same people with smashing the same people. for example, one of them is being a person named alba, jo, me, who was apparently held in high regard within the consulate of saudi arabia in los angeles. now apparently this person was not working there, but he was highly regarded. and the person in this interview says that he was seen as one of the higher ups, even amongst the staff, even though he did not work there. but the main thing that this report was supposed to do is prove a connection to the saudi arabian government. and it does not do that. there is no concrete evidence that links these people who were, sorry, national, there's no link to the actual saudi officials, government officials. so that link does not exist. also there were people names such as baton again, another person who had a ties to the hijackers who lives across their apartment in los angeles. again,
12:04 pm
he held extremist views, but no official ties to saudi government. and then there was also also mary, who was apparently accredited diplomat. so she's like one of mark accredited people . but again, he was not proven to be following any direct orders from saudi arabia from their official government. so this report basically just shows more details like 5 minute detail, like phone calls, where the met accidentally some restaurant, the ones who, but it does not give any specific evidence. new, no connection, society, government ok. going along with what the saudi government said, all along the way that they would not respond revolt in this, in any shape or form. right. that when all that said, what are the victims? relatives had to say this report was heavily redacted. you saying this? hardly anything new. it it, are they happy or not about this? them? it's odd actually, because one of the 1st report, one, the 1st dropped, the initial reaction from the families was that a, this is
12:05 pm
a big step in their fight against in their lawsuit against saudi arabia. because again, they're suing saudi arabia for billions of dollars in damages. for their suppose it involvements in the 911 attacks the one the 1st report dropped. the said, yes, this will definitely help. but upon closer inspection, really there's not that much of air even though the families have been fighting for this, these documents to be released for quite a while, even threatened bite, and that would be not welcome at any memorials the pertaining to $911.00. unless you released 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. those calls were heard and biden did respond. no, not directly, but she did issue in order to release more documents pertaining to the
12:06 pm
investigation of the 911 attacks. and this is just the 1st one and there will apparently be more within the next 6 months. but these, as you saw what this one, the report is heavily redacted and doesn't really provide any bombshell, revelations, or any of that anything of that sort. and even the former c i e director, has said that there's people shouldn't really expect too much from these upcoming documents and reveals, i suspect that the families are not going to get the kind of satisfactory answers about the role of saudi arabia with regards to this attack, well yeah, and doesn't seem to be any of that information and a lot of people have no, it's point to know that this is saudi arabia. us has very high dealings with there's a lot of money involved. and really there's, it's been 20 years since the attack. there's been many investigations. and still there's not been anything to link even though the, all the terrorists like 900. there was 1900 the terrorist and during that attack. and most of them were saudi nationals. so it's obvious why it's some people would assume there isn't a connection,
12:07 pm
but it doesn't seem like any of these documents will actually prove that connection for whatever reason either there really isn't on or that just wouldn't be really beneficial to the us saudi relations. so we'll see maybe the next 6 months we'll see something substantial, some actual revelations. what for now we're still getting the same old yeah. next you for to suggest us. busy drone striking, cobble targeting terrorists killed an aide worker loading his car with water. 10 civilians died in last month's attack, including 7 children. us forces said the mans vehicle much description of one used by the terrace group isis k. he also said there was a large, secondary blast after the drone strike suggesting maybe that he was transporting explosive. but it turns out that he was full of coding for the investigation, but the new york times were pretty employed by the american n g o. and there are many similar fates and victims of the 20th us campaign in afghanistan. as we discuss. continuing in depth investigation series and heard
12:08 pm
voices. the will use all tools at our disposal. killed our children to united states will bring people to your site. it was a pointless exercise. so in our latest report for you, we talked to god called brandon bryant, who flew drones for the us military to help at the time pay for his education. he spoke to us about his own personal experiences which include his beliefs still to this day that he killed innocent people. after my 1st shot, i took 3 innocent men killed. that, i believe are innocent. 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 was, i would just be another psychopath. ah,
12:09 pm
no other way is 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? oh, 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 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 are
12:10 pm
the 1st 3 months i was in active 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. ah ah ah ah mentor, degredation the proper term, every shot that we took, like they're cheering their congratulating each other. they're high fiving each other people getting promoted because of this stuff. it's like
12:11 pm
a withering away of who you are. i hear hunting, a man named and want all lucky. he was a mom from pm 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's striking when i asked some of the people that i knew why they struck me, do remind our lucky and they said that because they didn't want them to become a figure. the 1st thing that trump did in office was kill and our,
12:12 pm
our rockies 8 year old daughter. well, we see 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 white 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,
12:13 pm
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. but 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'd ready to do it. and he's just like, dad, let's go for work. let's go for walk. i'm going to go for what i . ready like tell you will have more 1st time stories and papers lines say what changed forever by america longest forward a continuous special series for you on heard voices, you can see the whole thing as well as streaming. anytime at all t dot com more americans were allowed to leave up canister on thursday. the taliban giving in the green light,
12:14 pm
the flee on charter flights almost 10 days after the official end of the us withdraw. many more the remain as the by did ministration grapples with the fall out. and a series of lead messages is now shedding lights on the failed efforts to get it citizens out. and the american citizens. yes, all of them we are abandoning american citizens. those texts which haven't been verified yet were disclosed by michael gill on. he's a war correspondent and a full us special forces soldier. he was among the civilians working with the military and private networks at the time to try to rescue stranded americans. he gave us details of 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,
12:15 pm
there was more tax those while he was really demonstrating a lot of frustration at one point you said, can you ram 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 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 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,
12:16 pm
or call us to let them through it. 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. we'll let you actually couldn't, but we got the jess will mike cody and also released conversations with contractors who are in cobble one of them, claiming that 45 americans, including women and children, were unable to get into that airport of the time you saw the k else there at that time, even if they hug us passports with them crucially to you may be surprised to hear the source play that some or even beaten on the soul to just for trying to get in and added that he was asking senior officers for clarification on how they could be help because what they faced outside there was
12:17 pm
a lot going on was frankly terrifying. however, goes on to say his command is apparently refused to step in, leaving those still stuck outside, then to meet their fate. and then there's another contract writing with us generals new the citizens were stuck outside the airport, but still wouldn't grant access. it seems as well even proposed paying other governments such as the u. k. to help lift americans and confirm to the general mark, millie, chair of the u. s. joint chiefs of staff had made the decision to not open the gate . can you confirm? general milly was mentioned by name as the leader that is condemning them to death . yes, i can confirm that mentioned by name. the picture that coming from those conversations is in stark contrast to the narrative. from the bye didn't ministration white has kept insisting that the situation was under control and that no american citizens would be left behind. what we are doing every single minute of every single hour of
12:18 pm
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 are responsible say americans are stranded, they are not. we are committed to bringing americans who want to come home homes. we completed one of the biggest err lists in history. extraordinary success of this mission was due to the incredible skill, bravely and selfless courage of united states, military and our diplomats and intelligence professionals. after the evacuation, michael yon wrote a scathing letter to the army side command highlighting what he saw as some of the missteps specifically that us nations were abandoned at the gates while 3 empty jets paid for by volunteers. he says we're waiting for them. we ask the pentagon for clarification on it so far they've declined to get back. young believes the lack of transparency has made matters worse to that's what americans are saying. we
12:19 pm
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 is on 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 watching the weekly life tend to lie. so world news, h q, moscow. it's kevin. oh, in here, let me tell you about this. it was a big story, the wait, but if he didn't see it, stick around a candidate for the french presidency, no less is cooling for his version of breck said,
12:20 pm
telling citizens to free themselves from the clutches of the youth. it's michelle. bonnie is saying it too big, i will tell you more after the break. i use driven by drainage shaped by those with vision in me. i think we dare to ask me
12:21 pm
so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk me ah again. so the brief prominence is 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,
12:22 pm
so hardworking families across the next parliament, the no conservative government, no conservative government to speak every once to raise taxes. now will be honest with the high except yes, i accept the break. a manifesto commitment, which is not something which is not something i do likely, but a global pandemic within the follows and 18 months, spending bonanza because of koby 19 that has seen national debt spiral. in the 1st year of the pandemic, the government borrowed 300000000000 pounds, a large part of which was to fund work his fellow schemes. boris johnson called tuesday tax hiker difficult, but responsible decision. he said needed to fix of funding shortfall in health and social care. we're beginning the biggest catch up program in the history of the chest. the levy will share the cost as fairly, as possible between people and businesses. because we all benefit from
12:23 pm
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, to governments, cases of the full 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, he's only here because it's time to make is not going to wash. he's putting a sticking plaster over the gaping wounds which his party inflicted. he made the comment of social care before the pandemic,
12:24 pm
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 slogan the bars johnson repeated again. today. political commentator anthony web told us the tax, how it reflects the responsible government behavior in the pandemic. i think it is damaging because of the way it's been job to saw where he's playing
12:25 pm
a panoramic. the government has actually dealt with the a desperate course that way it's been spending money. we're not thinking about the consequences. it's now trying to deal with the consequences by bringing in this additional means, like a mummy house as the leader of the opposition court. and now today, all the problems we had with the chess with social care interested well before the camera won't question. we are so the week after breakfast and could for exit be next because a candidate for the french presidency is now calling on his country to seize, but control and free itself from the group of brussels is a big name in politics, to shallow to bend, sky explained from paris. he was the man that was leaving the charge. when it came to those brig negotiations, he was a man that was in charge of insuring a victory. you fool. you. and during many years had to break that. she was the man
12:26 pm
that kept saying you is the gold standard during those discussions you even the q u . k. you trying to cherry pick was wanting from the you. now mission vanya is telling a very different story. something for the presidency, hearing from elections, take place in about a level and the things he is saying is shocking. many events in the south phone yesterday about needing to have more fluency in europe, counterpart. it was too many is doing and when it came to migration of the rule, 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 or the european convention on human rights, or by an interpretation by our own judicial institutions. the reaction, i mean, i will, in fact some people were so shocked about these comments. they thought that they
12:27 pm
would fake news. how could someone like me? should vanya see such things. there is a junior european affairs, mr. clement. paul said that he couldn't believe that somebody who was 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 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 close to school, she would only apply when it comes european court on issues such as like gratian, with his attempts to defend his comments seem to have made things worse. you can only how briggs and 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
12:28 pm
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 true feelings, it seems about the new and about european nations couldn't have come the worst point to the book at the moment. brussels is trying to reschedule supremacy when it comes to issues of the poor. countries such as hungary and poland, even seeing some questions being raised by germany, constitutional court, and his coma, to phone meetings, to maybe to, to have more influence when it comes to the european union to counterbalance the influence of germany suggests that the relationships within the block goes cosy, i think would have you believe which many will one day. it does mean that there are
12:29 pm
trouble waters hash before leave. is it for a break? can use kevin him from russia? not quite so sure. the full details of the sofa could be 5, maybe know a passenger plane, with 16 people on board where is crash, landed in rushes, a co screech, and reportedly came to a low altitude, according to locals there. but this is still sketchy at the moment. for people who survive, one is in critical condition. the condition of the others is not known yet because they've trapped inside said craft will bring him more on that. it's not looking great. is it? as a se? looks like there's been a plane crash in rushes, it could screech, and at the moment the fates of not all of them is known. but there are some people who survive, one in critical condition called embrace, going to bring up to speed on this. nothing else that breaks over the course of the evening throughout the course of reading. but for now from kevin, i mean that's it. thanks for watching this weekend and have a good rest of the weekend wherever you're changing. i
12:30 pm
secret the private military companies have been playing a role in complex worldwide. u. s. government doesn't track the number of contractors that uses in places iraq or afghanistan united states army and the military in general is so reliance on a private sector. i would call the dependency, but we don't know who's the on the ground presence of these companies overseas. we just don't out. the western private military companies can, in their turn, use so called sub contractors from countries with trouble pass. the chances are quite good that they had also been soldiers. i think i was as well as my drug profession. i drilled his work when the full moon.
