during the soviet occupation, the united states supplied and supported the anti-soviet mujahideen as they called themselves who waged a guerrilla war against the soviet army. in 1985 the united states launched something called operation cyclone which was a clandestine support program which supplied the knew mujahidn with weapons and cash through the pakistani inner service intelligence agency. so the united states really ramped up its participation at that point in time. once the soviets withdrew in 1989, they continued to support the afghan communist government under imagine they bull la. and the u.s. continued to supply is mujahideen though at a lower level up until that collapse in 1991 and the ending of soviet subsidies to to the afghan regime. at that point in time, afghanistan really drops from the american radar, and especially under the clinton presidency there's very little interest in afghanistan. there's some residual interest from the refugees caused by the soviet war, there's also, um, some kind of speculative strategic interests out of what are called pipeline politics

he was bragging about september 11th and he was asking the mujahideen of the islamic world to go join their syrian mujahideen brothers. >> so you are saying what's happening in syria is some fundamentalist islamist extremist armed movement that is trying to destabilize. >> if you are talking about the armed groups, absolutely. if you are talking about peaceful protesters. let me repeat this. we believe their demands are legitimate and we are addressing their demands in a comprehensive way. >> one of the thing you said in a radio interview a few days ago, not a single demonstration in syria has started from anywhere other than a mosque. i was in syria in june, as you know. that's not true. >> it is true. >> there were demonstrations at damascus university. a sky news team filmed it. and it was nowhere near a mosque. >> untrue. >> why would everyone be lying? >> they are not lying. >> about syria. i don't understand. >> let us be respectful and reasonable. everybody knows. inside syria and outside syria. not every mosque wads demonstration. i would say out of the 3,000 or 4,000 mosques

the deforestation we see in afghanistan is a product of three forces first of all you have the mujahideen that were using the forests for cover the soviets destroyed some of the force to prevent that second of all you have the afghans themselves harvested the forests. and stockpiled the wood because they feared that they'd be taken away during the collectivization process. and third you had land mines that were put in agricultural areas by putting the land mines agricultural areas that forced people to find other areas to grow food and the most obvious where the forests and woodlands of the country so those three factors have led to virtual one hundred percent deforestation in some areas this footage was taken during a field study for the united nations environment program holes in the soil indicate where trees have been uprooted to plant crops. or after three decades of war only the smallest patches of forest remain in northern afghanistan barely detectable by satellite and the reason we don't see some of these woodlands and forests regenerating is also complex at the moment if the seedl

for any of india's recent terror attacks will not move recent ones have been blamed on the indian mujahideen preceding the attack in mumbai you need investigators have blamed the loss could it bible or. investigations do the mumbai attacks the rule. of. or particularly the commandos in who have provided some form of logistical support to this particular attack who do you was established during the gone jihad. and you told links. with the pakistani i.s.i. we don't know whole rule dissolute sort of the moment. the group is quite strong and what other you know that there's been a lot of speculation stay and a lot of experts are coming out and saying that perhaps the hoodie could be a front for something else what are the other major threats to india security well it is a part of what they call the three one three brigade. excuse me. of the groups which have dissolved. because for example fortunately. because members of al qaeda and it has lost planet and so and so forth. so the three months or brigade has actually looked into the karachi project one of the believe that the mumbai attack was a p

close to the ideas of bin laden and as we all know we americans were created for more from the mujahideen let's see whether the americans are yet again making the same mistake but on a larger scale economic problems social problems civic problems the response from the united states tonight eleven and was was so catastrophic. to some of them i don't get what he wants but people all around the world are being affected and lots of people in the global south still remember how their countries have been distorted and destroyed in so many ways by american. jokes or words to excite such. senseless. people strong. of an evening. look back at nine eleven. this week russia's sporting world was rocked to its core when one of its best talking teams was all but wiped out in the blink of an eye they died on wednesday when. plane crashed on takeoff on saturday thousands gathered at the team's stadium to say final goodbyes to the victims thomas witnessed a city in mourning. waves of emotion poor through jaroslav as residents realize the full weight of the tragedy their country or the lives of some of the

afghanistan and the mujahideen which we had been funded by the united states the cia they came back to haunt the united states with the taliban regime do you worry about something like that happening with libya. what's already happening in libya that there are actually people fighting there who were trained by al qaida who've been in afghanistan and this is of course kept very quiet about but this is something which is already going on of course this is one of the very likely things that would happen and i had absolutely no time for gadhafi and i recognize that many many libyans are pleased to see him gone and i think he is effectively gone but the truth of the matter is that you cannot just go into countries overthrow the regime this has to be a process which the people of those countries themselves undertake as they have done in egypt as they have turned into nazir and as they want to do in a number of other countries which are being prevented from doing such as in bahrain and if you don't do it like that if you think you can take these things in the eyes of the british empire used t

thirty years ago in afghanistan when people in the cia thought to be very good reasons to get a mujahideen going to attack the person if it was you who were soviet troops they were successful but i'm not sure the long term it was terribly beneficial to the united states or the world in general so would you say it's sorry to interrupt would you say it is fair that these critics of the u.s. operations and be attacking an interest in those arab spring uprisings it's a policy that could actually backfire is that fair comment. for comment i think one has to say that it's still continuing certainly the british government that's very closely associated with the americans has a whole organization called the quilliam foundation which has been very much part of a process of bringing arab muslim fundamentalists in from the fold to join in these revolutions so the key figures in the libyan opposition to gadhafi in the actual hardcore fighting force are people who are in afghanistan turned around as it were by the british and now used against africa but we do of course whether they will stay bought if

when you teach a mujahideen commander that has been fighting for 40 of his 50 years of life he comes to you and you teach how to write beyond nei meter in pashtu or english you give him a sense of pride that he's never know and and his generations have never known and then he will look to you and be more loyal and faithful, excuse me, just as loyal and faithful as the guy that brings his burned daughter to you screaming for somebody to help them there is no health care in afghanistan, there is no medical care and when they bring them to you you know that you are the only a semblance of health and freedom that they are ever going to see. and even if it doesn't turn out the way the storybooks want it to they know that you tried to help. but people have nothing that makes all the difference in the world. so i think it will take some time to help educate them while we are helping train them, but i think that we will have an honest and loyal partner because you have to remember we are working with not only the grown afghans in the generations of afghans that have survived the soviets, we

number of attacks within india over the last few years the group that you would refer to the indian mujahideen has also been identified and that i want to apologise for and i'm going to as i can because it would suggest that there are no sleepers all groups within india because on one hand the recent t.v. spoke about groups coming from outside of india the standard phrase used in india is state sponsored terrorism meaning and the establishment bit but groups like the indian which i have been have a domestic want to so that is cause for concern and the prime minister's statement from god just prime minister manmohan singh i think is indicated that this is a long haul and we have to ensure that we deal with it appropriate people obviously will continue to monitor the situation and sort of see when the investigations wrap up who actually is held responsible for all of this mr boster i want to thank you so much for your time thank you. all right our tease. joining us from new delhi with latest there we'll be keeping you up to date on the new delhi blast all this and more stay with us here on r t a

then they blow to pieces you mention the economy network and you think about what we have with the mujahideen going back into the eighty's and the into the seventy's and you think about the pakistanis and pakistani i saw it but let's take this to a very current state if we think about what pakistan in the pipette is standing aside that's their intelligence service what they have done they were the ones who primarily established the taliban in afghanistan and i'm thinking about this in terms of my last trip to afghanistan itself and we think about what the i.s.i. has done they were the ones who funded them they were the ones that put them in place in afghanistan and then we turn around in our spending amazing amounts of money on the pakistanis while at the same time we're actually fighting the very people that they started if you can explain that or at least explain it in a way that makes sense to me or anybody else. you know i guess you win the big prize i think you win a big prize but he did a pretty good job of explaining it and use that all of that comes from your experience you were in th

close to the ideas of some of bin laden and as we all know we americans were created to funded the mujahideen let's see whether the americans are yet again making the same mistake but on a larger scale economic problems social problems civic problems the response from the united states to nine eleven was so catastrophic the wrong. someone in love may not get what he wants but people all around the world have been affected so poorly for badly by u.s. policy we must remember that the u.s. is also the anniversary of the american backed coup against chile in one hundred seventy three and lots of people in the global south still remember how their countries have been distorted and destroyed in so many ways by american just briefly funny you talk about the way people have been affected by. by these events now of course the u.k. has supported the u.s. in its fight against terror as they like to call it but europe doesn't many ways seem like it still a very dangerous place to be i mean you're there in london how is it do you think affecting our lives now in europe and indeed how can we now deal with

the afghan mujahideen kicked out the arabs including the likes of bin laden because of this arrogance because they were there not for afghanistan they were there for their own agenda and so everyone has been involved with afghanistan has been for their own agendas and not for the agendas of the afghans so i think one has to really pay attention to that with god what's happened so. here we are now you know with with flypaper you know sickly. and you know one hundred cars as brother half brother or whatever just recently assassinated. the levels of corruption. cynicism here in this country about. our's eyes former associations are . you know. what. that is if you say you were advising the president well i would say first of all forget any military options you know everything is been run by the military and you know why allow generals to decide and i feel very sympathetic to a lot of these soldiers we've asked them to become soldiers aid workers development workers relief workers i mean you name it you can expect them to do that afghanistan can only be resolved i think through proper and
