and also to ask about al qaeda or al qaeda says, can't i see that was the major points of interest of the french intelligence services. and you more did chemist who d, given that masoud had a significant network of informants in the country who's he might learn things about bin laden or al qaeda and share that information with the french. oh, so he's will say, i shared military insights about the show molly plain front with french intelligence services with my students permissional to last anymore for i was a messenger mister, just opposite. eventually reports transmitted by the western secret services including the cia gaining traction. but america still insisted on sparing pakistan. washington decided instead to pressure the un security counseling new york city, the council voted to impose sanctions on the cobble regime. tell about it on this earth. i don't have to let them use it on us. you know, you don't know, we actually don't need to least on 2000 is the genie shown on the focus could be a pretty united states was in what i call the hyper power phase. what i mean was that basic

. >> after you wrote your book, the united states killed al qaeda leader ayman al-zawahiri in kabul, afghanistan's capital. he was not hiding in the mountains. he was not in a neighboring country. was his killing in kabul an indication that we're back to square one, that afghanistan is once again a safe haven for terrorists who want to plot against the united states? >> you know, we've never lacked an ability to kill terrorists. we've actually gotten very, very good at it. that's a tactical capability. that's not a strategy. that's not a strategy for combating islamic radicalism. it's not a strategy that's necessarily going to keep america safe. the challenge we've always had is, we've never been abl to connect our tactical capability, being able to kill terrorists, with an overarching strategy that gets rid of the threat of terrorism around the world. and so the fact that we killed zawahiri brings us no way closer to having that type of strategic coherence we need so that we can focus on other issues. >> but given that the impetus for going to afghanistan in the first place was to p

they literally said they are worse than al-qaeda terrorists.ar they are willing to go. pushing our country to the brink of civil war. demonizing, targeting our fellow americans as worse than al-qaeda terrorists. all to hold on to their power. that's all they care about whether you are talking about the biden administration. thieves talking heads on tv. u.s. senators, the department of homeland security. the people who are some of the most powerful people in our country who have the strings of the national security apparatus at their fingerprints targeting our fellow americans. just because they didn't vote for joe biden all because they need -- they want to hold on to power. this -- this is outrageous. and should be concerning to every single american. we have got to see right through what they're doing. the timing of this is not an accident. we are just weeks away from the midterm elections. they are concerned that they will lose the seats that they have and so they are, again, not caring about the consequences and the destruction to the count

al qaeda terrorist group in afghanistan, led by osama bin laden claimed responsibility for the attack. just 2 days earlier on september the 9th, he had his only opponent assassinated, a local hero in the afghan resistance, commander ahmed shah masoud. yon mess with me to them. i remember my sword saying there's some one who's very dangerous to you. been that 5 months before the 911 attacks masoud visited france, where he issued a stop warning to the western world. in yellow, he told us he only had one message sick. it was that osama bin laden was preparing a major strike against the united states. right? something extremely dangerous. ah, by all my ball viable here in raleigh that he then and thought my not gonna be in good, much dead. nothing hardaman get out while it's gone by the get on and get on that he thought about the b b just data image study, attitude ah suits, warning, was loud and clear. why did no one listen? was it the trade agreements or the om sales to pakistan? that made the usa and other western countries look the other way. why did they refuse to help my suit? the l

our interest in afghanistan is preventing al qaeda or isis from regenerating and being able to conductn attack on our homeland or the homelands of our friends and partners. and our ability to do that has certainly been gravely reduced. now, the fact that we took a strike against zawahiri and that was a very good and proper action, that's good news. i would note this one strike in a year. and i would just come back, i would be careful about drawing conclusions about our ability to operate effectively in afghanistan in a counterterrorism sense based on that single operation. >> you're talking about the cia drone strike that took out the leader of al qaeda, al zawahiri in july. but the administration would point to that and say, look, we can counter the terror threat without a military footprint. so, are we at the right balance right now of keeping the homeland safe? do you agree with their assessment that isis and al qaeda do not presently pose a threat of being able to carry out an attack here? >> when i left -- when i left active duty, it was our assessment that if we left afghanistan,

and that's al-qaeda, and i say and bin fret.st this is the quintessence of the real, not some fictitious, but simply to prove that the americans used the principle, it means to take a hit on themselves. it was cunning to call fire on himself in order to get a moral justification in the world that america is a victim country and therefore it has the right to all the september 11 attacks. they remained a trigger and a policy document was adopted for cardinal changes in the lives of ordinary americans. the so-called patriotic act, essentially a federal law, which allows the government and the police to spy on their own citizens . uh, and after that, so to speak , tighten the screws as much as possible, not only, by the way, in the usa, but throughout the world. it was the united states , for example, this law on e, which means counter-terrorism, practically nullified. uh, right uh secret correspondence after 9/11, america quite officially became another thing that used to be done mystery eavesdropping calls tracing the table’s emai

al-qaeda's al-zawahirei leader is very curious, because the united states, it seems, just a month andf ago , stated that he was eliminated in kabul by a drone strike. these shots were distributed, but by the way, the body of azovahiriya was not provided by the american military. yes, and they could not, but in the taliban grouping, al-qaeda groups did not confirm the death of their leader, but right there hmm, of course, everything is also ambiguous, after all. uh, this video could have been recorded much in advance, that is, uh, before the americans presumably, uh, they attacked kabul, but , of course, no one is taken to prove this from the jubaiten. got into an awkward situation again it happened in boston after a speech dedicated to the state program to combat cancer. well, in this case, biden has a leaflet, yes , indicating where to go, who to look at, who to talk to. so the organizers of the event ran up, probably, there were no leaves, and they showed the president where to go. uh, well, such problems a politician has very regularly the last time that happened exactly a week ago

following 9/11 if we had not gone to get al qaeda and the perpetrators of 9/11. but then it comes how long do you stay and what do you droid -- try to do while you are there? there is this very optimistic, rosy color view that america has of itself and what we can do for good. you would like to think that you can take a country where the kids are not being educated or women have the opportunities for a life spent as measured in just a few decades, all of these things can we help them make a better life? we are going against centuries of tradition and culture so we don't often appreciate that but we think we can overcome it in weeks or months. so our expectations are very lofty and they run up against the brutal reality of actually doing that. host: danny davis, you had a piece just recently this month the headline of which is david pretorius is wrong the aft in world was never winnable. you were responding to an article he wrote. a mistake he made was the lack of commitment. we never got the approach or within the individual administration. >> that ties in with t

he sits down for his first briefing on the investigation of al qaeda and the bombing of the u.s.s. cole. forty-nine minutes later, someone enters and tells him the plane has crashed into the world trade center. bob mueller, director of the fbi, sitting in a briefing on al qaeda has the same reaction as the lieutenant general. he looks at the conference room at the seventh floor of the hoover building at the blue sky that covered the east coast that day and said how on earth did the plane manage to hit the world trade center that day and then they go back to their meeting. of course at 9:03, we realized something very different is unfolding. we realized that we are under attack, and the day begins to unfold dramatically differently. one of the things that sort of comes through from their is just how much the nation improvised its response to 9/11. just how much the country was unprepared for that day and we saw people at all levels making incredible decisions under incredibly difficult circumstances. and so, i spent a lot of time in the book following some of the stories that you pr

september 11, 2001 perhaps one of the most famous terrorist attacks in modern history, when al-qaedaerrorists organized the attack on the twin towers on the building of the world trade center in new york and a number of other objects in the united states of america, i am sure that many still remember the footage, when a plane rams a building in the center of manhattan and then it was certainly perceived as certain kind of apocalypse and some strange footage from another hollywood blockbuster on tv. i remember how in france they constantly showed women who explained how scared they were. which of the seven a beat and so on. it has become a common world problem. and everyone suffered for the united states, but the pure emotion is that we cannot and cannot build international relations. on the basis of emotions, you still need to keep yourself from emotions. and this is very good, but they must remain in their place, and take, but important, but serious, and an international decision needs to be hatsuna. but this is a completely different approach. and when we now look at this whole war

earlier this summer at the united states delivered justice to the leader of al qaeda., america's determination to keep our country safe will never waver. neither will america's determination to bring justice to those who attacked our citizens. surrounding us today are 184 steel benches. each bearing the name of a person murdered in the attack on the pentagon. every night, 184 lights come on, lining up each bench. just as the people who they honor went up the lives of those who loved them. those lights remind us on our darkest days, the american spirit still shines. if shines through the bravery of our first responders -- it shines through the bravery of our first responders. the bravery of the heartbroken, it shines through the valor of our troops. it shines through the sacrifice of all of those who step up to defend the united states. today, let us renew our dedication to facing the test of tomorrow as our heroes did. with compassion for one another, with love for our great republic , and with devotion to our democracy. we will always remember. we will always stand gu

there was been a step of attacks from arm groups linked to al qaeda and iso. emily nick, what led up to these steadily, incidents? i mean yesterday they with the straight to that the security situation became a facet. tell us a little bit more about the later oh yes, when demi, but took power in january, he made one pledge to try to bring back security for people in burkina faso because of the ups uptake on the in terms of the number of attacks has been millions of people displaced just this year alone, except that since he's taken over power, there's been even more attacks just a few days ago. like you mentioned, there was a protest. but on the heels of that, there was a convoy of several members of the military that were killed. now officially, the government said that only 11 people were killed. some people that we spoke to a in the ranks of the military said there were many more that died and that the they were choosing the government of covering up information. there's a sense that those that are on the front line in the north and that west where there ar

the northern part of multi where we, we've seen groups linked to al qaeda in iso, just gaining ground from the north to the center, crossing the border now to burkina faso effecting burkina faso and also threatening other countries in the region that are in the gulf of guinea, that's why the situation in bertino faso is so important for regional country. so they're watching what's happening closely. we haven't seen any reaction yet from the regional body. echo was, but that's the next step. and what's interesting and the statement made on national television, the, the soldiers were quick to appease concerns from the international community. this is a country that is dependent not only on international aid, but also and the security support from international actors, notably france, the former colonial power that has a base in walker do of special forces. we've seen friendship planes go out on patrols and supporting the soldiers on the ground. so there is a keen interest to continue with a partnerships, existing partnerships. but what's interesting is, well, miriam, is that today, when

intelligence community that al qaeda has not reconstituted its presence in afghanistan since u.s. forces with true and the u.s. intelligence in the in the stands -- so this idea perhaps afghanistan and taliban will fall into a state pays them -- safe haven for groups is not based on information but what does this mean for the biden administration?mi i think it's essential the biden administration congress engage with that in the stands. the first step in that direction would be to unsee's afghanistan'she assets that remn in the reserve. without the release of these assets it's harming innocent more and not changing the taliban were changing what andrew you discussed which is not really impacting by holding onto these assets. the question that's important for the american public to think about if holding these assets means the difference to the taliban and if nothing else it's increasing suffering which is something we should avoid at all cost and from a regional point of view is afghan continues to weaken it will create instability in central and south asia which would be harmful

and al-qaeda. but there is a very big difference in that after it 9/11, united states came together. a mansion that there were an attack like that in the american homeland, god forbid, today. it's impossible to see in the united states politically unifying. how would biden give a speech about maga republicans today, and coming together with the rest of the country after the speech he delivered in front of independence hall just two weeks ago? how would former president trump given everything that is going on with and around him, unify a country and come together with those he claims are in office illegitimately? it is impossible to see. and, that of course is a very big part of how and why this challenge is so hard to address. y >> you, by the way, i know a lot about the world and you posted in russia. you know a lot about that part of the world. this shifting sands this week ukraine claiming that they are taking 1000 square miles of territory. back a, major major offensive underway. how meaningful
