at that time, that in syria, al qaeda is on our side. no, it's your government, and your government said though the worst murderers in human history and in contemporary history, then we have the u. s. defense intelligence agency, document of 2012. we set a solid entity regional countries allied to the united states are trying to create a solid cas entity between syrian rock while who, what is that, what was that entity? it was isis. and then general flynn at that time said that the that they were determined and the united states allow for that entity. okay. you know, i don't know know that and let me question, let me finish. let me finish. not a lecture, let them know that me finish. i asked you to share. you don't want them done that in a private conversation, you're afraid you're very want. you're afraid questions go ask your question. my, my well, you're right. my question for, you know, we lead back on damascus. that could have been a different approach by the gum. yeah. to this on rescue that like the one suggested by 5, leading it

at that time, that in syria, al qaeda is on our side. no, it's your government, and your government said that the worst murderers in human history and in contemporary history. then we have the u. s. defense intelligence agency, document of 2012. we set a solid entity, regional countries ally to the united states are trying to create a solace entity between syrian rock. while who, what is that, what was that entity? it was isis. and then general flynn at that time said that the that they were determined and the united states allowed for that entity. ok, hope you're kidding. i john. good. i'm glad i don't know. know that and let me get a question. let me finish. let me can. it's not a lecture. no, let me finish. i asked you to share. you don't want them done that in a private conversation, you're afraid you won't. you're afraid questions. go ask your question, my, my well, you're right. my question for you. we lead back on damascus. that could have been a different approach by the gum. yeah, to this on rescue. the like the one suggested by

and this is the tuition to the see. serious security forces are required to defeat al qaeda when this is done. so they wanted a week in the syrian army forces, hearing army to come to america, to negotiate. and then they thought they could get rid of us that way that the army would turn on our side, like the egyptian army had turned against mubarak, they would get rid of him, then it would build up the army to kill the jihadists in the northeast. but in fact, their plan blew up in their hands and they built, they managed to build a big state or data building. but of course it, it emerged with the weapons that they were pouring in. and then they had to go and destroy it. and so this terrible plan which didn't stand a chance of working was partly the reason for why rocca was so destroyed and why it hasn't grown back again. because sanctions and other things are, are, and that terrible government has been left in place, are all responsible for the devastation that's been brought on syria. and let's look at that devastation. let's look at the problem before we've perhaps discussed this so

of aside was by building up the opposition and they said already the opposition is dominated by al qaeda and, and it related, malicious these radical islamist. so what they wanted to do was build them up to weaken the syrian army, but they were terrified of destroying the syrian army. they said, because we would need the syrian military and his attention to the see. serious security forces are required to defeat al qaeda when this is done. so they wanted a week in the syrian army forces, hearing army to come to america, to negotiate. and then they thought they could get rid of us that way that the army would turn on our side, like the egyptian army had turned against mubarak, they would get rid of him, then it would build up the army to kill the jihadists in the northeast. but in fact, their plan blew up in their hands and they built, they managed to build a big state or dated build it. but of course it, it emerged with the weapons that they were pouring in. and then they had to go and destroy it. and so this terrible plan which didn't stand a chance of working was partly the reason for

their adherence to some of the things that isis and al-qaeda have said about women and women's placesmade, are there? national action spent hours and hours disseminating isis beheading videos, disseminating materials about why young boys should rape women. why they should take women as slaves, why women have no place in society. so, parents have a responsibility to understand that... zack davies, who went into a tesco in 2015 and tried to behead a man. you know, he had all this isis imagery and words going on, he was a member of national action. so they're right to say... and i think where the security services are right now, previously we just thought these are a bunch of bnp nutters, they're not, that's gone, as we said earlier on, completely gone. we're talking about a new, harsher ideology, younger, harsher, more disturbed, more distant, more isolated young men, and this new ideology is — what can we do to get these people over the line to commit a terror attack? that is fascinating. and what we're also talking about is the power of the internet to create global communities. indiv

just as a sponsor of terrorism but as a terrorist state, because the current russian federation is al-qaeda or the islamic state yes, only with nuclear weapons and many other things, but in its own way, both in terms of its ideological basis and in terms of its position and in terms of its practices, the current russian federation is in no way different from al- qaeda or from such a state, well, that is, what can you talk about with them? do you think that if olka had nuclear weapons, then they were functioning do you think that if the islamic state would continue to exist, i don't know if some of them would be, but then they reconciled with them and said, ok, let them exist and continue to expand throughout the world, no, i think they would stop even sooner such an expansion is therefore a conclusion, in fact, behind all the rhetoric is the recognition of one simple fact, until the political regime changes in the russian federation, this war will continue whether someone likes it or not, that is, this war must end with the fall of putin the regime, or the fall of the entire civilized world

it's the first face to face interaction since al-qaeda's former leader was killed by a u.s.n kabul back in july. miss -- muslim scholar dr. quan, a ahmad joins us now. tell us about your worries, concerns and hopes for this meeting. >> first of all, no matter how detestable it is to engage with the taliban, and i say that as a muslim, there's no getting around that they are now in power with afghanistan, and we know, we've had a 20-year global war on terror led by the united states in response to al-qaeda and the war they launch. ed on the west and all her allies. but we know that military and political action is not enough, so there has to be dialogue. that dialogue, which is commencing with a deputy of the cia in the biden administration now and taliban chiefs, is a beginning. but that dialogue will have to encompass much of the muslim world. and from here in the epicenter of's lam, saudi arabia, the holy land of muslims, we know that combating fundamentalism and radical islamists like the taliban is something that we have to do at the grassroots. i'm here as a guest of th

rejected the ultimatum of president bush jr., who demanded that bin laden herself and the entire al-qaedaeadership in the united states be handed over to american justice proclaimed that the goal of the operation was to overthrow the taliban regime, to free afghanistan from their influence. for the first month, us aircraft attacked taliban military facilities, depriving them of all aviation. however, ground operations were carried out mainly by detachments of the afghan opposition, but the movement was not completely destroyed. there were more and more clashes and terrorist attacks. the process was only started by joe biden in may 2021 during this inglorious departure of the americans the taliban regained control over the entire country in a few months and took kabul almost without bloodshed . the soul has not been reached. this was such a day in history that we went out more often. in the west, they are trying to declare us a pariah country. let's look at this story a little differently. this is an attempt to hear recreate. through painting, the entire panorama of the great country is ar

from 9/11 changed into remaking the country. >> the question lasorda the morality of going after al qaeda it sort of morphs into this nation building mission. it's an interesting question and i've sort of thought is there any way this could have ended okay.ba the one that feels like the most probable outcome how we could have had a more positive endgame in afghanistan like let's say hypothetically it happened, we went after al qaeda, taliban left afghanistan and around 2002 or 2003 we made overtures to the taliban to try to incorporate them as minority stakeholders but get them involved in the afghan government just so they were able to start in insurgency again and had we not invaded iraq and kept our eye on the ball in afghanistan was there someme political settlement that would have allowed us to get out? that's all water under the bridge. i think one of the reasons we go back to this idea of the stories we tell ourselves about war. so we go to war after the september 11 attacks. one of the things i've always remembered about that time was the zeitgeist of the country. so, i kind of re

the population then could have displaced for what could have been al qaeda and iraq to reemerge as basis with a safe haven in syria as well. so i think is very quickly started moving in a bad direction' i would say although i disagree with his initial decision obviously and i made that very clear at the time , he did do the right thing and recognized the threat and went back in but i think at some great cost. i still am of the mind that we might have deterred that reeves rejuvenation had isys maintained >> thank you and with that context in mind i want to come to you looping jim macfarland into the conversation. following the withdrawal can you walk us through if you would the key milestones and decisions associated with three things, the rise of crisis, the decision to send us forces back to iraq and ultimately the battle to defeat the isys caliphate . >> all in three minutes or less.>> very concisely because i think general macfarland had a very important role along with some people in the audience and in building the structure that was needed to defeat isys. but i agree with miss sher

the monument is only meet is from where militants linked to al qaeda. blue arthur patty bar in a nightclub, in se ages deadliest terror attack containing our correspondence georg matter, spoke to us just before that ceremony, and told us more about what happened 20 years ago. and how it's being remembered to day. i'm standing here, i am in the middle of those 2 packed bars that you have just mentioned on leon street of very busy party, a district off the holiday island of bali. essentially what happened that night 20 years ago, is that a smaller device that unaided by a suicide bomber went off in an irish pop right over here. and then that was followed by people running on to the streets and then a huge device or in a truck just outside the busy night clapper, which you, sir see right behind me of a catered, or a slot of land that is to day and bad bomb was so strong, it left a crater of one meter depth on the street. i would say essentially there's 2 groups of people. there's those who simply want to forget and were scarred for life physically or menta
