s. involvement in syria. there were some people in the administration who worried that i sunken at the end be top alden extremists would take over. and those of us who were following siri more closely kept telling them, stop worrying about that. the extremists are no stronger than a lot of the modern elements, and they're not going to take over. it might just shift the fighting a little bit, but there will not be an islamic state declared in damascus. this lack of a western response seemed to embolden assad. he realised that some western leaders were more concerned about the potential chaos that might result from opposition groups taking over than the were about his staying and power. i saw was quite to exploit this. michelle said that if not as a pot hustle, natalie poet kill whole school me law. she had a unit stem yeap. bill. i showed him how to persuade the challenge level no set up for korea and she had yelled emotional dishes, ian. and she's at mann in mann in nuts. oh, really my food ought to be young

s. ambassador to syria. he was a very nice i asked president martha, are you worried that the winds of change will come here? and he said he was not worried. he said the syrian people strongly supported him, strongly supported his government. ah. 7 just 2 weeks later, there was a large demonstration in damascus in a market called althea, it happened very, spontaneously very suddenly, wasn't planned. and it was immediately filmed by syrians with their cellphone. ah, and we sent a message to washington that night and said it's coming. the firewood is very dry and it's coming. 3 days later on the 18th of march 2011 young people in the southern city of dora wrote on their school wall. it's your turn next doctor. they arrest and torture provoked a wave of protests which swept the country. syrian security forces attacked unarmed protesters who were colon for more freedom ah, at the beginning the classes we met with british ambassador friendship, masters of medic, on a mass of those. i felt that am the ambassadors,

s. attempts to defend and as strong can syria that killed dozens of civilians in 2019. that was a report reveals the military tried to cover it up that story and small off the base that showed break. stay with us. ah, no one else showed seemed wrong when i'll prove just don't whole. i mean, you world is yes to shape out the same because the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. ah ah, ah ah, ah, ah, with ah, with oh, well come back. us have defended as legitimate and as striking syria in 2019 which killed scores of people. the incident was exposed by the media leading to claims the military had tried to cover its up. 80 people were killed, mostly women and children. likely, a majority of those kids were also competence at the time of the strike. these 2 strikes were legitimate, self defense strikes, no disciplinary actions were warranted. this is of the tubman isis was on its last legs as a coherent caliphate when they were fully in their last towns that they control. and what happened in

oh, so on not on syria. ah, i tell you were concerned about the signals that some of these visits and engagements ah, are sending. and i would simply urge all of our partners to, ah, remember, ah, the crimes that the assad regime is committed and indeed continues to commit. we don't support normalization. and, and again, we would emphasize to, to our friends and partners to consider the signals that, that they're sending. ah, we, when it comes to afghanistan in the yeah, the 2nd question we've been taking out our afghan families of you a service members all along. and that will continue, and as we identify people who are in afghanistan, including family members of service members who remain there and wish to leave, we will do everything we can to get them out. and, and again, i would just step back for a moment if i could hear because this is in so many ways a m o, a complicated story that i'm not sure the american people fully understood just taking american citizens for example, as you know, ah, starting b

and as we can do that at that time in 2015 missus marker, let in some 1500000 refugees, mostly from syria, from the muslim world own. while she doubled the score of the ultimate for doctrine in germany, she's the creator of the hard drive party 8th. either way, because of a policy that no german accepted the seller will. so choosing russia had a hand in this sort of mazda martin. this crisis being better, the better is his closest ally. what would you make of that, and do you think russia could also face periods have measures from the you? oh you room underestimates miss lucas shanker. he's a shrew, gentleman, he was a cold calls, had you know, but producing potatoes in his old days, but he's a very short guy. and if he wanted to retaliate to the european sanctions, e found the right way because europe is in deep problems. now, with this elm that's wanting, and as for russia, of course, every time there is a problem, it is russia, the russian bear, the bad people president in russia is almost culprit for everything. in this case rainy, frankly, i think it was completed some policy itself.

can syria that killed dozens of civilians in 2019 story and more of the brain? ah, oh, is your media a reflection of reality in the world transformed what will make you feel safer? tice, elation for community. are you going the right way? or are you being that somewhere? i read. what is true, was his way in the world corrupted, you need to descend. ah, so join us in the depths all remained in the shallows. this was a bargain that was may 2025 years ago under a clinton. as a matter of fact, they've brought china into the world trade organization, the w t o. this was a quick probe. well, that we're going to essentially give america a huge break on flat screen tv, but within 2045 years we're going to bankrupt the country and that's what's happening now. oh, quote him back. the u. s. has defended as legitimate and i struck in syria in 2019 which killed schools of people. the incident was exposed by the media leading to claim the military had tried to cover it up. 80 people were killed mostly women and children. likely, a majority of those kids were also competence a

while governments failed in north africa, eagle in syria watched closely al jazeera, damascus staff were heavily monitored by the syrian authorities. in march 2011 crunches erupted between the syrian police and protesters in the southern city of that are on the 15th of march. the 1st lodge anti government rally was staged in damascus. government supported started to harass al jazeera personnel, and the network decided it would have to stop operating that it hasn't returned since a few days later, syrian security forces killed dozens of protesters and arrested many more demonstrations spread throughout the cities and the opposition group. the free syrian army was formed. government forces dropped barrel bombs on towns and cities, causing widespread damage and triggering the launch scale movement a vast numbers of people. refugees fled to neighboring lebanon, jordan and turkey. al jazeera hired local free, la journalists, who operated from opposition, controlled areas. 7 of those journalists where he the killed or died in car accidents, while reporting in syria between 201320. 16 mohammed

bear reasons for having intervened in both libya and syria. so obviously they are not going to go down that pathway. however, there is, and a very, very obvious reason. i play here as to why in focus is on russia. it is because the russia of today is not the russia of the 19 ninety's is flat, that may uprooting was over yeltsin if he was complying to weston wishes to western demands. if he allowed russia to be dependent on the international monetary fund, then you would say a very different approach from the west. but of course, the reality is that on the, it, not only has russia regained its independence, which it lost. so a very great extent during the 1990s, because it was on an iron, met life support machine. not only that for them, it has returned russia as a great power. and even further, he has returned russia as a superpower. and of course, the americans look to russia as the only country which can truly challenge. it's a, it's hedge, a monic role in the well, they do not look at china in the same way because they know that the chinese

so when, when they were old, these interventions in syria, i've gotten on even iraq. and you know what, what i think is missing in this discussion is how did they end up on the polish bell? the russian border and why would they go there and the 1st place, right? they're not, you're in there. i think there is little discussion on what's going on in the iraqi kurdish then why would people go to, to, to europe now? and that these are a serious questions that i think have not been at rather than rather the europe keep looking for the war to factor in every single challenge that they face. and i don't think it's a long term solution markets with this issue with energy, their low to, to appreciate energy security, migration, security. but, you know, at the same time they, they have to demonize russia. but maybe the russian in figured out, i mean it's a very, we're trying to buy adult, broached or, and all of the. and if you rightfully pointed out the u. k, that's true. the whole, this all started out because of military decision in the middle east. and now the best solution

resulted in well over 1000000 migrants ensure in europe, most of whom have not come from libya and syria, but turn into the tension on the polish russian. buddha, the g strategic dimensions to that are as follows. america and britain are attempting to manage civil unrest in delivers or it's historic. and i sort of name is lasha in the hope that fermenting civil unrest in the country will assist them in their quest to initiate a crew in bella, russia against president alexander, look back towards wrestler bell russia from moscow is all bits and place. it's in the west open it, which would result in the western border of the russian federation from the old 60, to the black sea. being entirely encircled and close by countries which are in the west, all bits. that would be a tremendously dangerous situation for russia. now, was the chances of weston embellish occurring are negligible, none the less anything is possible. there is also another dimension to this america and britain on looking for a pretext to continue increase in nature's presence along the russian order. both soldiery and weap

you needed syria to legitimize that process. syria was the beating heart of pan arabia. jordan was a small state any like a king but it had no real weight in the balance of power. his attitude was that israel and jordan should deal with the palestinian problem between them. it was their problem. it didn't rise to the level of american preoccupation because they couldn't really disrupt the order. that's what he kept on telling the israelis that it's your problem, you need to deal with it. don't ask me to do it and as a result of that, he missed the opportunity which was there in 1974 of actually bringing jordan back into the west bank and establishing the construct in which the palestinian problem could have been solved at the time in a jordanian context. his failure to do that meant almost immediately within a few months to the arab states deciding that it was the plo that was the legitimate representative of the palestinians and that happened at the end of 1970 four and the king of jordan has been out of it since them. that's essentially what he did with the palestinian

so when, when they were old, these interventions in syria, i've gotten on even a rock, i guess a huge number of these migrants and the polish bell, russian border, or iraqi purse. and you know what, what i think is missing in this discussion is how did they end up on the polish bell, russian border, and why would they go there in the 1st place? right. they're not, you're in there. i think there is little the standing discussion of what's going on in the iraqi curtis. then why would people go to, to, to europe now, and that these are serious questions that i think have not been ras and brother pins keep looking for the core factor in every single challenge that they face. and i don't think it's a long term solution. markets with this issue with energy, their low to, to appreciate oh, and energy security, migration security. but you know, at the same time, they think they have to demonize russia, but maybe the russian been figured out. i mean, it's a very, we're trying to buy adults broached on policy. and if you rightfully pointed out the, you case then true to poland. i mean, this all

in its 10th year now caused by america. britain and france have been de stabilized both libya and syria for having supported islamist terrorists in both countries, which has resulted in well over 1000000 migrants enter in europe, most of whom have not come from libya and syria, but turn into the tension on the polish fellow, russian, buddha, the g, a strategic mentions to that are as follows. america and britain are attempting immense civil unrest in belarus or it's historic a, in the hope that fermenting civil unrest in the country will assist them in their quest to initiate a crew in bella, russia against president alex on to look to shame that towards rest. so bella, russia from moscow is all bit and place. it's in the west of it, which would result in the western border of the russian federation from the old, 60, to the black sea. being entirely in circles enclosed by countries which are in the west all bit that would be a tremendously dangerous situation for russia. now, was the chances of western crew embellish occurring all, negligible, none the less, any thing is possible. there

it's last territory in syria. ah. after the defeat, children of the fighters were taken to this camp at al home. 62000 people are still living now. a among them 21000 iraqi children with many mothers have kept the i feel ideology intact. a lot with i brought with inside the can save the children, a child protection n g o teaches math science, arabic and english a. so i don't know a lot found out only available in lucon with abilene, my daughter, vanessa mon, without an issue on a job. my daughter's sick, i will be di comcast, over my been back a little while jo with the i learn more. know really mother is my worried house. you want to hold her and her for the assess in admission. lot fall been hired to lie. do you come on a limb? can my whole miller can few i'm and now he don't you? hello? hello is america middle? did i say i did it? you're going for, you know, what the will use them or you could, will, she could, will, after you, were you either before the holiday and hopefully hi, adam. muhammad is 13 years old. his

in syria, in iraq, and the thing is that they keep happening. it is almost as if lessons just aren't being learned. with david swanson from the world beyond war group believes the lack of accountability from the u. s. needs a strong international response. i in the heck, should it be legal or moral to blow up? 80 people if you label them non civilians. why in the heck, can you scream, imminent danger or self defense in somebody else's country, thousands of miles away, self defense, and make it ok that this is, this is absolute madness. where are the prosecutions? where are the human rights groups? where is the u. s. congress, where was the senate armed services committee that did nothing. imagine if, if china had done anything, if russia or iran had done anything, north korea had remotely done anything like this. where is the sort of pressure you would be seen if this were a nation being targeted by the united states, rather than being the united states and f, e, i, right on contractual investigative journalism outfit. project veritas has been s

from a distance it looks like just another bond in syria. we can largely become numb to stories like this many of us. but i would suggest these revelations are huge. they significant. well, i think so too. i think this is the 2nd in recent weeks. stories of this kind by the new york times one about that hopefully last drone missiles strike in afghanistan in cobble and, and this one. but these are 2 out of hundreds. i would like this to become a habit at the new york times. i'd like to see them continue down this path because we have known of for years from reporting on the ground from a independence social media reporting and independent investigators in these countries that this has been happening. we've known from the documents leaked in particular by a guy named daniel hale, that this was the norm, not a sort of aberration. he now been in prison as a reward for telling us this. so, you know, it is there, there is courage in the sources named an unnamed behind this story. and we need more of that courage because many, many of these stories

it's last territory in syria. ah, after the defeat, children of the fighters were taken to this camp at al home. 62000 people are still living now. a among them 21000 iraqi children with many mothers have kept the i feel ideology intact. a lot with a, [000:00:00;00] with inside the can save the children, a child protection n g o teaches math, science, arabic, and english a. my son, i don't know a lot found her daughter available in lucon with abilene, my daughters phone, if someone without an issue on your job. my daughter's sick i will be di comcast, over my been at that level. while joe, with the i lamore know really mother is my worried house on the quarter and had it as i see in an image, a lot fall been hired to lie. do you come on a limb? can my whole mirror alone? can few i'm in now. he's on your phone and he had that. oh, is america middle? did i say i did it. you're going for you, and hopefully we'll use them out of local sheer, cool. after you. cool. i had them before the holiday and possibly hi, adam. m

use if atalla, fletch, syria, he's now relatively safe in poland. he was driven towards the board by bella, russian police, but he says he was also beaten. god followed us and then they cut out the thick and he used we took and he used like this in the way. there's a bit of soldier just this side. he gave me the fries with his foot. so i passed a football to couple of minutes finals and broken bone in here. my eyes are small, decadent, off the reports, brussels might target aero floats. the russian airline denied any involvement in transporting undocumented migrants to bela rufus. none of this political standoff does a thing to help the desperate families at the border which poland is preventing aid workers, as well as journalists from reaching at least 7 people have di here in recent months. there are real fears that number could grow. nadine baba al jazeera, well let's find out more with us, had beg, he's joining us from near because need so that's on the poland. beller is border. i said, what are you seeing? what's the situation like where you ar

. —— from a small town in america to the heart of isis in syria.four years, baker investigated the story of sam sally. after arriving in syria, sam's husband became an isis sniper, and her young son matthew was forced to take part in an infamous propaganda video. by the will of allah, we will have victory. so get ready for the fighting hasjust begun. it was moussa and his brother that were forcing the kids to do this. crazy intense video of this american kid with his yazidi friends. this would be a great propaganda. sam claimed that moussa had tricked her into going to syria and that she had no knowledge of her husband's interest in extreme ideology. sam is a complex person. she can be both the manipulator and the manipulated, and you often never really know where you stand with sam. and as a journalist, she's a real challenge to tell the story of, because she is an unreliable narrator. she is also not the sort of stereotypical person you expect to end up with isis. this is somebody from middle america who has no history of extremist views, yet she

many of the newcomers come from places like iraq or syria, which have been subjected to western military interventions. the e u, though, is adamant that the crisis was manufactured by bela bruce and is threatening another raft of sanctions. the responsibility of what is happening is alberto rose, 100 percent. we agreed to expand the scope of the sanctions regime on barrows. we will be able to target those responsible for exploiting vulnerable migrants and for facilitating illegal border crossing into the u. independent journalist. look where they say is more sanctions weren't resolved, the migrant crisis unit is very ill at ease with this thing. you know, they can only impose sanctions, but there isn't much sanction that they can impose them by roscoe's, the. the comic links are cut or, or there are more many, anyway. oh, politically speaking, they have forbidden on the id, but i was aligned to land or to fly over europe on that is much more that can do the sanctions. it's just the word. it is totally inefficient, it's just words go. oh, so in this instance, there are really annoyed by t

syria, indeed. the countries that are in focus in this tribunal hearing.t is a combination of corrupt power, and in the age of disinformation, it's also a case of undermining public trust in journalism and journalists. you take someone like daphne in a place like malta, which we did not necessarily think was one of the places on earth that it could be so dangerous to be a journalist. and we see in this era, as the world really does to hurt -- does tilt towards fascism, threats to journalists are not just happening in conflict zones like syria and afghanistan, they are happening in western europe, in countries that we previously considered to be safe to practice journalism. and the reason that is occurring is because there's been an enabling environment created by the rise of populism, by weaponized social media platforms, and the general threats to journalist whose job it is to ensure that we have access to truth, has become that much more difficult. and the demonization and criminalization of journalism has caused an escalation of these threats. it is no
