in 1924, the k k. k even appeared in one of the 1st short films produced by walt disney featuring kids mimicking clansman. ah, the clue was by far the biggest social movement of the 1920s. and it was not only a mouse organization was somewhere between $3.60 people, but it was a family organization with activities for children, for young women, for a young men at the same time that the class was hosting wholesome activities by day it's crimes. continued in the shadows k, k. k had managed the unthinkable. it had become respectable. it's imperial wizard, even grace, the cover of time magazine. i think the most important to understand and perhaps the most frightening thing is that they were, they had achieved a certain kind of respectability. they were viewed by many people as a legitimate i for turn, all political group in the united stage. but this golden age wouldn't last. at the end of the 1920s, several scandals weakened the movement. david stevenson was the k. k case, new strong man, and grand dragon o

a new k k. k was born with a leader and its own laws. while the birth of a nation was spreading its venom, simmons made announcements in the press declaring the rebirth of the client. the film thus became a 180 minute advertisement glorifying his movement. simmons is haunted, horseman could be seen on film posters and in newspapers throughout the country. the popular image of the plan, as we often think about it, is fundamentally created by griffith's birth of a nation. that is the film that creates the image of the white hood and robes that then gets adopted by the 2nd plan. the birth of a nation is considered to be the 1st hollywood blockbuster. more than 50000000 americans watched this racist film in all. for most viewers, respect tackler battles, lincoln's assassination, and of course the clans, heroic victories were seen as truth. this movie was seen as in effect telling the story of the south after the civil war. and so it really becomes the predominant way that people in america understands southern history and, and which of course

the freedoms of assembly and speech guaranteed by the american constitution provided the k. k. k. with a permanent megaphone gradually, the clansman traded in their hoods for military gear and swastika tattoos. wine. they linked up with neo nazis and other right wing malicious, the powerful ties of white power and anti semitism found them together. beginning in the 1970 s, she began to see explicitly, clansman, working with neo nazis. and it was at that time the 19 seventy's through the 1980s that this idea that the country was run by choose, came to be accepted all the way across the radical right. so the narrative came up that the federal government was sog, the zionist occupied government. and it's that that really symbolizes these movements coming together. so now today, when you see a big demonstration, ah, by the radical right, very typically you will have clansman and nazis arm and are marching together. their goal is to purify the white race and create a future for white children. basically they want their own state. they want to have an all white sovereign state inside of

for members of the local k, k. k were questioned, including robert chambliss known as dynamite, bob, very, shortly after the 16th street baptist church bombing, the f. b, i developed information which turned out to be true about who had actually carried out the bombing. they sent this file back to washington up to the f. b, i headquarters of but the head of the f, b i, j edgar hoover refused to forward that file to prosecutors in the department of justice. so it lay there for years and years and years and years. so even in fact, f b i, agents in the field knew who the killers were, knew who the bombers were, but because of the leadership of the f, b i, at the time, none of that information was prosecuted until decades later. robert chambliss who committed the bombing was convicted of possession of dynamite, but he would serve just poor months in prison. the other suspects were not prosecuted. ah, f b, i, director j edgar hoover had chosen his side. he did everything he could to block the investigations. he saw the ci

the media took interest in the new strong man of the k. k. k. robert shelton always seen driving his late model, cadillac shelton was an excellent organizer. he managed to bring several clan factions together to form the united clans of america, which he led, the former tire salesman was now in charge of $30000.00 men in 5 states. beaming with confidence, the imperial wizard appeared more and more in the news. under pressure from the media, the investigation began moving faster and the f. b, i became more closely involved mediately more f b i. agents will transfer in the united states navy has a small training base near meridian. and approximately 200 sailors came out with the f. b i. agents to assist in the 1st of the area where the car was located on august 4th, 1964. after a $45.00 day investigation, the bodies were finally found in a forest. the f. b. i managed to get a witness to talk and reveal everything. more than 15 suspects were linked to the large scale plot and arrested. among them were samuel bowers, a local plan official, as well as

regarding other perceptions of the p k. k. with a nato that, that he's a strong man as the always projects himself. but there's often a lot of diplomacy taking place behind the scenes. he was taught down at the end of 2019, and the mood in stock on the mood in helsinki is that they have an off and there is an awkward in the the alliance to talk him down this time as well. aragon on turkey are, are quite isolated and right now, you know there strategically very important oper, western strategic interest in ukraine. us $23.00 says mentioned, but of course it is not in aragon interest to be isolated within nato either. and if i could also follow up with you, if things are able to get back on track now if things are able to be smoothed over when it comes to turkey's objections, how long might the accession to nato take when it comes to finland and sweden? so what we're looking at now, and in the next week or 2, we're looking at phil and sweden filing their applications for nato membership. it is likely then that spin london, swede

k. k, which calls it a terrorist to, to gear as being supporting the open door policy or nato, even before this war. but we got to this possible candidate already candidate countries. you know, we have also legitimate security concerns that they have been supporting terrorist organizations. and there are also export restrictions on defense products. so we already express our concerns today we had some and sweden submit their applications. and this of course is a process and we will go through that process as allies and as partners. we have a lot on our common agenda, including of course, russia's ongoing aggression against ukraine, united states, turkey, all of our allies have been resolute in support of rain earlier finland and sweden submitted their formal applications to join nato. that ambassador had letters to the chief of the ministry lines is installed and back on a long time, both countries have been neutral, but russia's invasion of ukraine rapidly shifted public opinion in favor of joining nato. i think at this stage we have to get our eyes on the ball and that is of very smooth and fast ratification of our membership in every native and a country. so this is what we are focusing now. and i think our most important job in nato is to defend our own country, our own region, and also making sure that the whole nordic nordic region is secure. the finished president and swedish prime minister will meet us president joe biden and washington on thursday to discuss their applications balance. fisher has more from washington dc. joe biden believes that nato will be stronger. he thinks it will send a very clear message to russia and to others, thinking that russia's plan in attacking ukraine was to try and we can nato believing that some natal members simply wouldn't step up simply wouldn't follow the u. s. lead. and joe biden is essentially pointing to the fact that nato could become stronger with an expanded membership because of what has happened in ukraine . in fact, he put out a statement just the last few hours saying that he is looking forward to welcoming the leaders of finland. and sweden to the white house on thursday, adding that the united states is firmly committed to nato and also the, the commitment to article 5. that is, if you attack one, you attack all that is absolutely iron clad. and he believes that the ascension of both finland and sweden to nito will be relatively problem free. they still have the issue to deal with the turks. the turks are deeply concerned about some of the stances that finland and sweden have taken in the past, particularly when it comes to the p. k. k and turkey. but it's clear that this white house doesn't believe that those obstacles are insurmountable. well, kindly, 5 nato members, shannon land boulders with russia. they include the entire eastern frontiers of estonia, latvia, norway just touches russia in the arctic circle by lithuania and poland flank the baltic. i slave o, colleen, and god. finland's membership of nato would add 1300 kilometers to be alliance is land border with russia more than doubling its length or joining us live from bethesda, maryland is dave dow. she's a professor at national defense university and former nato operations director in the office of the u. s. secretary of defense. so it's very good. have you with us on al jazeera. thank you very much. indeed. as sweden and finland have been neutral for so long and yet they seemed to have a perceived threat now from russia is the threat from russia that great that it should move. they should move into nato. well, they perceive it that way. i mean, look,

k. k, kurdish on the group finn and then sweden are ending 200 years of neutrality to join nato. after russia, the invasion of ukraine, diplomatic editor, jayden's phases in brussels, where you defense menaces are meeting today. clearly, all the talk is about those applications from sweden and finland. what we're expecting is those applications to be submitted to nato in the coming days of very big development. bought turkey has opposition to this. turkey is a nato member. turkey says that the 2 countries harbor terrorism. and that means, i think effectively that they have supporters of the p k. k and kurdish nastiness living in their countries. this is something that i think throughout the week is going to be a big issue. we understand that the turkish foreign minister and the u. s. secretary state are going to meet in new york in the coming days, but how can this issue be overcome? it's a point i've put to the foreign policy chief joseph barrow. i'm sure the country will support extremely strong supported, biggest possible report to the membership of a student and fealand. for me. i know that turkey has put some objections. a whole nature will be able to overcome them. but from my side, from side to the defense country, a strong support to these membership as those defense ministers meet, one of the things it's already been decide is you is going to increase its military aid to ukraine. further, some of over $500000000.00 is going to be set aside to buy weapons for ukraine. that brings a total that the use supplied since the russian invasion of over $2000000000.00 worth. s

from the swedish foreign minister, formerly applying to join nato and from the finish side, the finished parliament. that overwhelming vote. a 188 in favor. just 8 against showing how public and political opinion in both countries has changed so radically since the invasion of ukraine by president putin. what happens next? well, as still is the possible opposition of turkey. and i think the most important meeting is the one that will take place in new york between the turkish foreign minister and the u. s. secretary of state u. s. officials say they are confident they can change the turks mind that this can be a unanimous decision, and it has to be the animal decision by nato turkey, as a member. and if it wanted to, it could block the membership of these 2 countries that would bring a great deal of sophistication and capability in their military. they are large military's and nato's border. if they join what more than double the border with russia? and president biden's

k. k into the y p g terrorist organizations, and asking us for support for nato membership of amounts to say the least to inconsistency and our target. either moto beauty, grand lake or lucian, will do. big nato is a security entity hallway. therefore, we cannot say yes to depriving this security organization of security yet to demand . currently 5 nato members share land borders with russia. they include ester news and lack fears and tire eastern frontiers. norway just touches russia in the arctic circle, while lithuania and poland flank the baltic, exclaim of kellen. in grad, finland's membership of nato would add 1300 kilometers to the alliances land border with russia. more than doubling its length. and prime minister wants nature members to ratify the applications as soon as possible. i think at this stage we have to keep our eyes on the ball and that is very smooth and fast ratification of our membership in every native member country. so this is what we are focusing now, and i think our most important job in nato is to defend our own country, our own region, also making sure that the whole nordic northern region is secure. president joe biden has said the u. s. will work with finland and sweden, while a membership is being considered, is national security advisor jake sullivan says the administration is confident the process will go ahead. we're confident that at the end of the day, feminine sweden will have been effective and efficient a session process. the turkeys concerns can be addressed filling in sweden or working directly with turkey to do this, but we're also talking to the turks to try to help facilitate i spoke with my counterpart today. secretary blinking is meeting with his counterpart perhaps as we speak in new york, and we feel very good about where this will track to fish has more from washington . joe biden believes that natal will be stronger, he thinks it will send a very clear message to russia and to others. thinking that russia's plan in attack in ukraine was to try and weaken nate or believing that some little members simply wouldn't step up, simply wouldn't follow the u. s. lead. and joe biden is essentially pointing to the fact that natal could become stronger with an expanded membership because of what has happened in ukraine. in fact, he put out a statement just in the last few hours, seeing that he is looking forward to welcoming the leaders of finland and sweden for the white house on thursday. i think that the united states is firmly committed to lee 2 and also the, the commitment to article 5. that is, if you attack one, you attack all that is absolutely iron clad, and he believes that the ascension, or both finland and sweden to nito will be relatively problem free. they still have the issue to deal with the turks, the turns are deeply concerned about some of the stances that finland and sweden have taken in the past, particularly when it comes to the p. k. k and turkey. but it's clear that this white house doesn't believe that those obstacles are insurmountable. russia says almost $700.00 more ukrainian fighters at mario pose as of style steel plant, have surrendered over night. is video released by the russian defense ministry. and she had said to show some ukranian soldiers handing themselves over to russian forces on tuesday more than 250 fighters left industrial complex. moscow says the troops have been taken to the former penal colony in russian control territory. are the injured on hospital for treatment? i said, beg has more from cremmit ask in easton ukraine. we're going to stand there still, some of those clinging soldiers still in at that moment. now, the presidency lensky has said that the military intelligence and the most influential international mediators are trying to negotiate or talk to try to try to be involved in the evacuation of those remaining fighters. now they have said that they will not surrender. an uncertai

stay turkeys accused both countries of support and kurdish p k k.

k. but i would like to broaden the argumentation here. it's really not only about the p k, k encourage some terrors. it's also about an arm embargo that was put forth in 20192020. and i would argue that indirectly, it's also about f 30 fives that the turks were to have from the us. so that's why i'm saying that this is a more complicated package. when you have a complicated package, it's usually easier to get a result. of course, what you do have is that present one has been able to reach out to president putin to talk you talk about the 35. the reason they don't have the a 35 because turkeys taken on the s 400 defense system from russia. i mean turkey is playing dare i say both sides and get it once it's cake and it wants to eat it. well, i'd probably say that turkey is very much the strategic lynchpin right there. you know, between the west or europe and the middle east. uncomfortably close to russia as well. so it's playing a g o strategic game here, but i think that the ally mc made the lions and turkey has with the united states is very valuable and important. and i thin

, in particular of supporting and engaging with the kurdish extremist groups here particular the p k. k. a bad sir. many here are indicated that the reasons for turkish and or turkey's objections could be more of the domestic issues or for instance, and restrictions on weapon deliver it to turkey. after buying a russian made or a defense systems, for as for instance, the u, as a decided to impose sanctions against turkey thought maybe that is the reason. but here anyone is confidence that there will be no turkish veto. and what's the perspective from russia? while russia has threatened to retaliate in the case of a membership of finland and sweden, but they seem to be dialing down a bit so they have suspended deliveries of electricity a to finland, for instance. they are, they have also threatened to move more troops to the finish border, which is a long one. however, we also have to say that to the russian army is at the moment, very busy in ukraine. they have suffered a huge losses there. and according to nato military officials, they're, they're an aggression that war has lost moment

there p k. k, that is considered a terrorist organization and he said that turkey has always supporter to the open door policy of the alliance, but that it is turkish people who are against it, who are calling on the government to block her potential finish and swedish membership of the alliance however, he also added that this is something that the foreign ministers are going to talk about tonight. so he left the door open for a kind of compromise and, and many ministers. he told us that they're actually just wants to really listen and, and, and get to know what a turkey's real intentions here are. foreign minister is from the group of 7 countries, say they will reject russia's attempts to change international borders by force. g 7 ministers addressed to russia, the invasion of ukraine at their meeting in northern germany. german foreign minister and alina bab, oak, also called for an end to russia's blockade of ukraine's ports. she accused moscow of waging a quote, food war on the world by causi

the p k. k. terrace organization is listed as the chair organization in the united states and elsewhere . so there's, there's some legitimate concerns in turkey side about is security concerns. and so it's raising them right now. you've heard leaders in both sweden and finland. both say that they will respond. there's diplomatic efforts under way to engage and so on one hand that process is taking place. the most important thing is that this doesn't become for mr. eric one, a political football for him domestically given his poor standing and potential for upcoming elections. and so we want to take this out of turkey's politics. let's put it back into the important security. and right now we have the most furious security situation in europe, in decades, finland and sweden right there. i need the support to move forward as quickly as possible, as president biden said today. and so let's hope that diplomacy works in this move forward. jonathan, how important is joe biden's show support to sweden

p k. k, which is designated by anchor and the west is a terrorist group that analysts say add one is using the situation to extract other concessions to for turkey. the issue could actually be about us fighter jets. turkey was dropped from the f 35 advanced fighter jet development program in 2019 this was part of the us sanctions packet imposed on the country after it bought a russian air defense system. many believe anchor is now hoping to pressure the us into selling it new f. 16 fighter jets instead. an extremely controversial topic and washington, another issue in 2019 sweden halted weapons deliveries to turkey. after it attacked kurdish people's defense units in northern syria and launched and offensive there. anamosa turkish president reject type odor. one could considered this grounds enough to block the start of nato. accession talked for sweden and finland, possibly destabilizing the alliance. and the process would, it would play into president putin's hands. it would send a signal

they want them to drop their support for extremist kurdish group such as p k, k. and they want also wanted them to lifted their arms embargo against a turkey. and we have to notice here that it's that only fin london, sweden. there is a number of european nations is also members of nato that decided to impose restrictions on arms deliveries to turkey because of her there and offensive in northern syria. and of course, that is also what probably is going then to be discussed among sweden, finland, and turkey. and sir, this is an important topic. her, the german foreign minister in her press conference after and they to foreign ministers meeting stressed once again. that isn't very important moment an emotional moment for finland and sweden to make such a decision after decades of fir neutrality. and that is good for the alliance to welcome them. because as we just heard from the finished prime minister, and they are very close partners and they're a very capable armies can be easily integrated into natal. alexandra, how united are nater members, given this foreign

there p k. k, that is considered a terrorist organization and he said that turkey has always supporter to the open door policy of the alliance, but that it is turkish people who are against it, who are calling on the government to block her potential finish and swedish membership of the alliance, however, he also added that this is something that the foreign ministers are going to talk about tonight. so he left the door open for a kind of compromise and, and many ministers. he told us that there actually just want to really listen and, and, and get to know what turkeys real intentions. here are a foreign ministers from the group of 7 countries have concluded. their meeting in northern germany vowing never to recognize the board as redrawn by russia by force . the g 7 also bow to increased pressure on russia through sanctions, and called on china to not undermine international efforts to isolate moscow. a united front pole. that's what the foreign ministers of g 7 nations were hoping to put up afte

k. k, which is internationally designated as a terrorist organization and has been fighting a turkey state for several decades. encore also says that these cannon even countries are also providing refuge for supporters of the syrian kurdish group. the y p g, which has been full so fighting turkey, which isn't designated the terrace group. now encore expects movement expect change on these 2 countries stance and the message from prisoner on to day to his parliamentarians was very clear. he said, unless a change has thought they shouldn't st. diplomats here to change turkey's mind while dorian isn't president out of the one in danger of isolating turkey further within nato. nato. well, i've been present on police. he really isn't. of has a very strong position. he has a veto, old nato members have a veto over any new applicant. i'm president. one has made it very clear that he is prepared to use it. now it does come with a time when turkey has been trying to rebuild his relationship with its nato partners, which has be deeply strained over, present, heard ones, close ties to russian president vladimir putin. but the father earth, one has come out strongly in support of ukraine, has been a saw, an opportunity from turkeys, nathan partners to rebuild relations. but this present route has a, posing a major set back to those efforts, but unquote, belief that this is an issue that is prepared to stand for the math question of principal, and also a question of security. and then they, unquote, belief that has an awful lot of leverage to extract major concessions, not only from finland and sweden, but also probably from washington to dorian is the risk of any other countries objecting like turkey has? well i think that, i mean there was concerns about countries like possibly hungry which to has close ties with moscow. but the fact that that the, any country can wield one veto is enough. i think the one that has concerns will the just stand by and be very quiet and watch on crew. take all the flack and pressure and there will be pressure on that is very clear. the talk is for missed another child for sure. louise in washington, where he'll be meeting with is your counterpart, and this is expect to dominate talks, but on cra at the moment it's any, a very clear message. it is not going to back down. there is concern to uncle could over play hand, but the end of the prison earth, one of his more than 20 years and power has a reputation as a man who doesn't bloss. dorian jones, in his stumble. thank you. russia says nearly 1000 ukrainian fighters have now surrendered at the as of stout steel works in money. you pull in, cranny in authorities are hoping they can be traded for russian prisoners of war. but some real makers in moscow are calling for them to be put on trial and even executed. ukraine says talks are under way to evacuate fighters still in the plant . there are fears, the ukrainian fighter is defended, the as of style plant in marty. you, paul, could face rough justice from moscow. russian tv show defeated troops being led away from the sprawling steel plant. russia says they will be treated according to international norms, but there have been calls to designate the feared as of regiment, a terrorist organization, or a russian law maker. taking part in peace talks with keith said russia should consider the death penalty for the as of regiment. then the st. louis missouri ports that they do not deserve to live after the monstrous crimes against humanity that they have committed and that are committed continuously against our prisoners . upwards of lustre, bloom, shaw ukraine. officials remain hopeful their soldiers can be exchanged for russian prisoners of war. as national broken from our side, we can say that the negotiation process is ongoing and that the rescue operation itself is also ongoing. one 0, let us try. there is also been some unprecedented criticism of the war from unexpected quarters. sam aguilar enough enough that the main problem with our military and political position is that we are in full geopolitical isolation. and that however much we hate to admit that virtually the entire world is against us. and that's the situation we need to get out of flats in lat that we got them. are you paul victory? marx, a rare win for russia's military in its 3 month invasion of ukraine. but it could be short lived, finland and sweden have made a joint application to join nato, a further set back to moscow's ambitions to contain the expansion of the block. moscow claims that nearly 1000 fighters have surrendered at the us of style still works. he has his helping for an immediate prisoner swap. i asked our correspondent mathias bellinger, inquired keith, what the most likely scenario could be? well, if for an immediate prisoners, what was likely they wouldn't have for that long? it was luckily a long time ago that they would not be able to win or to get out of there by their own a force. and it was also long clear that ukraine did not have the capacity to break through the lines and get them out of there. so the fact that they have stayed there so long, and so as it looks like even starving in the end, it was due to the fact that they thought they would be mistreated in russia or possibly even killed. so this anxiety, this is shared by ukrainian society, is still there and we are also hearing from moscow. some signals met people in the politicians in more, in, in russia or public figures, calling for their, for the execution or, or to, to see them in court, et cetera. so all of this is on the table. ukraine is of course, hoping for a prisoner swap because that's the best thing they can hope for. but it's far from clear whether this will happen that is filling our reporting there. the united nations has launched a 5 point plan aimed at averting a global climate catastrophe. the un secretary general antonio quoterush is

heat makes people less productive but staying outside for too long as many workers and even children are forced to do chemicals. fatal damage to organs. temperatures will keep rising as long as people continue to burn fossil fuel in a bit to keep whether it streams like this from wrecking communities. world leaders in 2015 promised to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees celsius of the century. the
