the last decade if not longer the last three decades it's very well known as you know sponsored bin ladin you know i'm going to say we say you know the united states the united kingdom various other western powers. i mean we did this during the cold war against it's a mobilized these guys against the soviet union against communism but what what many of us don't know is that this actually continued off of the cold war and in many many ways as you continue to this day and this is not a conspiracy theory this that you documented fact since whistleblowers like civil edmonds for example who worked with the f.b.i. confirms. from the late ninety's to two thousand and one you know just bates was funneling into central asia these islamist extremists and terrorists in order to carry out operations in order to pursue there is. a very narrow it's used to teach you can trust sidelining russia's side right side i think trying to using these extremists on the ground to destabilize regions and and push through certain interests including like you know just paving the way all the gas pipelines and so on a
