u. s. and its allies has actually made the taliban more legitimate than ever before. and now you're at a point where you've got china and russia saying how they're going to deal with the taliban. at the same time we've actually got biden. and the g 7 leaders now discussing whether or not to recognize the taliban as well as the legitimate government of afghanistan. so will this happen? and if so, how likely is the us to unfreeze that $9500000000.00 worth of atkin assets that are currently being held in us banks right now? yeah, well to the 2nd part of the question 1st i think would be, i would say unlikely that they would unfreeze those accounts. and yet, if you recognize the taliban as the legitimate government of afghanistan, how do you not unfreeze them 1st, 2nd of all, the idea that the u. s. would recognize the taliban as the official government, not because of an election, but simply because they conquered the country. it's kind of shocking as well. i mean, remember, we don't recognize nicholas madura as, as the actual leader of venezuela, even though there was a

u. s. has actually exported a lot of their inflation onto in china because essentially the u. s. has the buying goods from china for the good part of the last decade. so that's been export to inflation onto china. so even if you manage to contain there's, they still have to deal with the upstream inflation coming from china because the u . s. no matter what they still purchase goods from china, they still purchase consumers, tables, and all the commodities and the earth, minerals that we talk about, that store comes from china. so upstream, why? you have to think about that in the logistics term. excellent points to consider here, christy, i don't go anywhere just yet. we'll have you back to talk about the world of crypto straight ahead. thank you. and the united states said it finally released the text of its bipartisan infrastructure bill sunday. aiming to pass the massive measure this week, but this bill does a lot more than just deal with infrastructure. buried within this new legislation are new regulations that could potentially cause serious harm to the crypto currency ind

u. s. actually likely to not. 7 only admit defeat, but to also admit that they need to back down when it comes to china. do you see that happening? well, i don't see them back on china, but here's the thing. china is literally laughing in their state media laughing at the united states right now lapping that this debacle. that is up canister in. so much of the world is looking at afghan and stan and saying the u. s. made promises went there for 20 years and ultimately resulted in billions of dollars being spent on nothing. and so the chinese are real probably saying the most people in their region of the world don't just lean on the u. s. and expect that they're going to be here to protect. you were to bill you out where the real power we're the real force. i think that's what's happening. and it's pretty embarrassing for b. p. harris to get up and threaten china at this point when we have such a mess on our hands just a few miles away and i've been in all of it, the united states did to itself kaden's that as always, boom bus spends one. thank you so much for your time. thank you. the federal

u. s. actually had direct intelligence about the attack you that just failed to the end of the day to stop it was i think regardless of whether this truck had taken place or not, i think the accusation efforts will continue to be in jeopardy. i mean this danger of the suicide bomber going ahead and carry or carrying out an attack like the one which we saw this danger always exist. you have to remember that the suicide bomb off from i. so what i saw and succeeded in this terrorist operation, despite the fact that the united states had intelligence that such a scenario was likely the other's face declared, this global war on terror, opposite timber 11. and here we have the solid on coming back to tower, and we have the highest scaled terrorist activity in the country. and i think that this goes to show that the united states, the global war on terror, embryo has failed. the chaos near cobble, apple meantime, shows no signs of relenting this video. you can see people running for cover as gunshots of fire. and here we have the latest report from cobble with our correspondence. and what i guess

u. s. actually stay, anthony blinking says his country has achieved its mission in afghanistan and rejects comparisons to the full of saigon and 975 in what was found vietnam. let's take a step back. this is manifestly not saigon. the fact the matter is this. we went to afghanistan 20 years ago with one mission in mind, and that was the deal with the people who attacked us on 911. and that mission has been successful. we brought a lot to justice a decade ago. our cater, the group that attacked us has been vastly diminished. its capacity to attack us again from afghanistan has been right now does not exist. and we're going to make sure that we keep in place in the region. the capacity, the forces necessary to see any re emergence of a terrorist threat and to be able to deal with it. so in terms of what we set out to do and f canister and we've done it. so how are us veterans who served in afghanistan, looking at the events in campbell? my seller is co founder of the non profit organization, no one left behind an advisory board chair. if the association of more time allies enjoyed the psalms

an actual crisis that the u. s. blocks access black gamma stands with the billions of dollars and that $7000000000.00 lawsuit against the mining giant behind brazil, deadliest environmental disaster counting the cost on al jazeera. the news. ready this is al jazeera ah, hello mariam. new jersey are watching the news, our life from london coming up in the next 60 minute traps between the taliban and uncertainty desperate afghans wait and hope for the chance to be lifted out of the country. i made the decision to buck stops with me. the us president has questioned over administration. handling of the afghanistan withdrawal pledges to evacuate all afghans who worked alongside us forces on the front line of media freedom. we look at increasing concern over the safety of afghanistan's journalists. also coming up on the program, 40 results, hospitals struggle to treat the wounded after another devastating earthquake in haiti, and 3 prime ministers in 3 years. another major change in malaysian politics and i'm li, harding

u. s. is actually dependent on countries with which it has deep political attentions. washington may dislike all those things, but i think it dislikes high gasoline prices even more. and right now, thanks to russia's strategic position, pricing position, because russia is not a member of opec. it's independent. so it can choose its own range of price within various agreements. it has the most competitive pricing, a lot of titanium, which is used in making aircraft parts and which means defense equipment comes from russia as well. not to mention the fact that critical materials like career, it's mostly come from china. so in terms of resources, the united states is highly dependent on countries with which it has deep political pensions. and of course, it is a situation of its own making because by applying sanctions left, right and center is forced to sometimes contradict itself. states approved torture on trial next documentary asked just how did the success of government get away with it for so long? for me, the the other stuff and then need to talk to someone that co

u. s. is actually needing taliban cooperation to try to help secure the airport to evacuate americans and afghan partners. yeah. and on that important issue of coordination with the taliban, as you're saying seems to be key. do we know if this us cooperation will continue after august 30? first of the taliban we don't know any both biden. and his administration officials are being a little vague on this. what they are saying is this, do we trust the taliban know, do we feel that we can at least work with the taliban for the next few days until august, 31st. yes, biden says that they have neutral interest to work together right now in the short term, the us interest is to have taliban security personnel guarding the outside of the airport, the perimeter, the u. s. needs to taliban to do that in order to help secure the area and the taliban. they need the u. s. or want the us to get out of cobble as soon as possible. so it's in their best interest. the u. s. feels for the taliban to cooperate with the u. s. over the short term. will this cooperation go on after august 31st? nobody knows. but admin

u. s. government actually auction off, all of those, kept those all the light coin, the big coins and some portions of bitcoin cash. and these were essentially holdings that they had fees from tax non compliance cases. and that number has only grown bigger in the coming years in 2019 they had seized about $700000.00 worth a cut, though in 2020. that number was about a 137000000. and now here in 2020, where 2021 we're seeing that number in the billions. so that number is expected to grow as the year progresses and crypto seizure and sales operations has now grown so massive that the government officials are now turning to the private sector in order to help them store and manage the sales of these auctions. so once the crypto has been sold, the proceeds are then distributed to either the treasury forfeiture fund or the department of justice forfeiture fund. and right now as of today, crypto currency remains the largest contributor to both of those funds. so this is just another example that regulation is coming slowly but surely to the industry. now when it comes to those crypto users out t

u. s didn't actually do that versus from a liberal in its policy, canadians could still fly into the us, but on the central travel throughout the pandemic, so that they say which is already been that mexico is reporting its biggest number of corona virus cases. since the pandemic began, the delta varying is fueling the surge, which is heating younger people, had a quarter of mexico, was on the highest level of alert, which requires some non essential businesses to close. since the beginning of the pandemic, the united states have been turning back, migrants to cross into the us illegally without giving them a chance to ask for asylum. many have been dropped over the border into cities in northern mexico, which are in the grip of organized crime. hundreds and our camp john and one of the worst hit areas. reynosa. john holman, has moved a migrant camp out in the open in one of the most dangerous cities in mexico. this is very no sir. it's known across mexico is a black hole where several criminal groups bustling and even new struggles to get out. it's one of the places where us authorities

u. s. military actually being involved, there are other ways that, that strengthening local capability to go after their own countrymen who are saying that whatever is going on in their country is not to their liking. and they're willing to kill other people to get their point of view across the us. of course, if you want to say the military is the only way to do this, well the u. s. still has that capability with what the administration is falling over the horizon capabilities, a drones and other military aircraft that can go in and. and that's one part that i am very, very fearful of because we've just seen and hobble where us drone going after what they said was what they, they considered a terrorist in a car filled with explosives. and then what we now see is that the car was in a compound and 9 people, 10 people were killed, 7 of them, children. we've yet to see any sort of drone footage. you know, every drone has a camera on it. so the military is already see what exactly happened and whether or not it was a secondary explosion. we've never seen the car that the u. s. military says

actually. as he's reckless planned, you will require, well, the debt ceiling limits the a month, the u. s. government can actually, oh, it was reinstated last week after a 2 year suspension. the figure was automatically recalc, calibrate to equal the current debt at level, forcing the treasury at the end of at all to call up the government bill is now let's make sense of that because financial group, max kaiser, he's been watching events a little bit closer than i have, he sees the u. s. has no choice, it just has to keep on borrowing. b, u. s. economy, in conjunction with most of the west, is one enormous ponzi scheme, need fresh money to keep the ponzi scheme going. if you take the contact from, you understand that 0 percent interest rate and global that the g d p is over 300 percent and the ability to pay back any of these loans is berkeley darrow. you can understand why now the debt in the u. s. is going to start to become hyperbolic, and this is having an interesting corollary. and that is causing a real inflation because all that money printing attempting to tamp them is dead, which

see, or was there actually on the ground from people you've talked to, was it pretty started, this is going to happen, or do tell them was going to gain control rapidly. once the u. s. pulled out. actually the people they were, they were surprised. why did mister ash of getting the so called president off? i'll get this done. he escaped from afghanistan. he was talking, you know, actually the, the tree people, they handle all up genesis shop gunny with 2 other partners. they had and that's why the majority people, they don't like. and the former president of a gun son, mr. sharp guinea was minister, was the chief of war, was the mayor was everything. so he didn't let anyone to work there. and they, he stole a lot of money, he's came from up get a son and the rest of money like $5000000.00. he gave it to the p. p. s. as to his unit to has people. so people of guns, i'd say once we see or receive the former president, i shall get any anywhere. we will not let him to walk or we will not let him to be alive because they are very upset from former president of i've got us on it. former president of our son was the hated president and the history of get a set of sorry, m

u. p. s. country. so this is actually an opportunity for europe and europeans to start with a new and different approach to the situation which would be more realistic and would focus on the actual reality of the current situation in yemen. all right, let's get an update now and one of our top stories. hurricane ida, which is sweeping across the u. s. gulf coast and b, c j gray joins us live now from new orleans j. so this is one of the most powerful, hurricanes ever to hit us tell us what's happening there in new orleans where you are very intense windsor earlier in the day. and we're still getting some severe gus here. rain that has been driving for hours and wilson, and let me tell you what some of the when did you look across the jacket where the door, where you can see it, an old creed and battered by the wind. rip you pardon, phone call for. and unfortunately, that seems playing else across the city right now. we are down top with away from building is also got a window saturday. it is a mess. the storm has really d

u. p. s. country. so this is actually, you know, put unity for europe and europe pm's to start with a new and different approach to the situation which would be more realistic and would focus on the actual reality of the current situation in yemen. because one has to admit that in the military has effectively been a stay made now for a number of years, with the exception of the major, who's he offensive on monday and politically that it's been a complete and utter stalemate throughout. i think at all has been progressing and this new new and un special envoy is an opportunity for some change and possibly for a resumption of discussions. though i think it would be very important for him to take a very different and new approach to negotiations. to them has been held in the last 12 and the last 2 or 3 years. so in fact, the last 7 years, really, since the war started good to speak with you. helen laughed. no, thank you for being with us. i and syria. government forces have launched more attacks on the southern city of that.

u. p. s. country. so this is actually an opportunity for europe and europe pm's to start with a new and different approach to the situation which would be more realistic and would focus on the actual reality of the current situation in yemen. meanwhile, yemen has received its 1st batch of johnson and johnson's coven. 19 vaccines, all the 151000 doses, arrived at abe and aiden applewood under the global kovak scheme. the country is now received about half a 1000000 doses through the us back to initiative. when a 1400 yemenis have died from the virus so far, israel is offering booster shots of the code 900 bucks, seen to any one above the age of 12. the country began administering said shots that defies the job to the elderly last month. health officials say a booster is needed because the effectiveness of the vaccine weakens. after 6 months. thousands of people in greece have rallied against mandatory curve, noisy vaccines for health work. at least 5 pay gas and water cannon to despise crowds like gathered outside parliame

u. s. intelligence off, central korea in the week who attended actually have a sentencing hearing. the mood was one of great apprehension and the court room was packed for daniel hale. it was all quite dramatic, but we were apprehensive because we really didn't have any indication of which way the judge was going to go. and then he surprised everyone by clearing the courtroom and sealing it for 2 hours. while the justice department argued in a classified venue for a sentence of 9 years to me, the fair verdict would have been to, to, for the judge to come off the bench, shake his hand, thank him for his service to the country and let him go home to his family, i didn't think he deserved any prison time at all because he revealed a crime that was being committed by the u. s. government, the crime of, of the murder of innocent civilians. these are war crimes. when, when we know that civilians are within the strike rage, that makes it a crime when we kill civilians and then put in the official report that they weren't children for example, they were go. that is a war crime and it becam

actually just 2 weeks. do you think those in power in the u. s. government, you order the withdrawal actually thought these governments were prepared to stand on their own, or was that just saying things when they actually knew the truth? certain amount to the military industrial complex has gotten the idea that they can dictate to reality. and that's what you saw there are certainly people inside the u . s. government who were telling other people inside the u. s. government, this is all going to be fine. we. we spent our $6000000000.00 a year building is fighting force. and it's all going to be fine. the problem is they ran up against 2 things. first of all, the people were actually in the african army. didn't feel that it was a matter to them. whether of the foreign occupier continued to occupy the country, or whether a roofless dictatorship, religious dictatorship took over, simply didn't matter enough to them to fight. and part of that was the fact that we're paying them a $150.00 a month, who's going to risk being decapitated, face to face

u. s. air force veteran. actually babbitt a martyr or he's kill them up and comments. this is part of the ongoing fall out of the january 6 the capital riot. and we now have the us capital police announcing that they have concluded their investigation into the killing of ashley babbitt, who was fatally shot during the events that took place on capitol hill. now, according to the statement they've released, there won't be any disciplinary action against the officer and carried out the shooting. they say case closed, this is what they said. the actions of the officer in this case potentially saved members and stuff from serious injury and possible death from a large crowd of riots of who forced their way into the u. s. capital and to the health chamber where members and stuff was steps the way. now many conservatives say the case is not closed, and furthermore, there's a lot of outrage on the conservative side because the name of the officer who pulled the trigger has not been reveal, say there are very serious threats to the person involved. his life is on the line and

well they may well do, and he's a substitute actually that the the u. s. military and the whole occupation has reached a point of humiliating defeat at the hands of of the taliban. how these plays out in the. ready in the days in the weeks to come, it's a little bit hard to predict, but it does look because it's very, very serious forward. ready momentum either they'll be a, an entrenched civil war or they'll be complete telephone and take out that neither is very good for the people of african the song. but it's also an absolute catastrophe. full. ready of western powers that can go into this occupation almost exactly 20 years ago this year. so it's, it's definitely respecting human. yes. i'm just a month ago, of course joe barton was saying that the taliban army, their fighting power isn't even close to the capability of the vietnamese forces back in a more era. just a month later, they control most of the country and all days or weeks away from seizing. cobble. and do you think the president made a big mistake, underestimating the power? well, i think

it is also, there is also begin to play between this the monetary system, actually the u. s. dollar centric monitor is them. so we are of the opinion that this, this new kind of cold war situation is, is, is also part of the monetary climate change. since you have this new and some to some extent old blocks again polarizing and, and then we see as we saw in the case of russia, very evidently russia didn't. that doesn't hold any us dollars anymore. china is decreasing the holding of us dollar reserves. and this is, this is going to have repercussions or so again, for, for the dollar and for the stability of currency. hey, thanks so much. bring on cars report. you're welcome. thanks for having me. all right, and that's going to do it for this edition of kaiser report with me max kaiser and stacy herbert want to think, i guess mark valid of incremental them until next time via the me ah, ah, is your media a reflection of reality? in a world transformed what will make you feel safer? tyson lation community, are you going the right way or are you being direct? what is truth? what

it is also, there is also begin to play between this the monetary system, actually the u. s. dollar centric monitor is them. so we are of the opinion that this, this new kind of cold war situation is, is, is also part of the monetary climate change. since you have this new and some to some extent old blocks again polarizing and, and we see as we saw in the case of russia, very evidently, russia didn't. that doesn't hold any us dollars anymore. china is decreasing the holding of us dollar reserves. and this is, this is going to have repercussions or so again, for, for the dollar and for the stability of currency. hey, thanks so much. bring on cars report. you're welcome. thanks for having me. all right, and that's going to do it for this edition of kaiser report with me, max kaiser and stacy herbert want to think, i guess mark valid of incremental come until next time via the me ah, me by the make know, you know, borders and my number is emerge, we don't have authority, we go to the back seat, the whole world needs to take action and be ready and not a joke. people are judge.

so nc web cal fire the u s forest service. they've actually set up locations here in south lake tile. there's one in round till there's one right down at the y at the rail ease there's one at the holiday market admires go to the right location so you can get the right information. please don't use social media there are so many fire experts now on facebook it's kind of ridiculous to see what they're forecasting so just go to the right places because the i m t, which is the incident management team. cal fire the pios are all putting out information each and every morning and each and every evening this evening they'll be streaming on facebook the incident the i m t team we're giving up the be giving out the latest information. on what they did today. what they were able to battle back if they were able to control more right now it's at 9% i'm hoping just to see maybe 10 or 11% because thisg on tile. it's also. encroaching on my favorite place. kirkwood. so, yeah i know it's so emotional for all of you there like you mentioned kevin been through

okay, well we have actually contact to the u. s. department of justice for comment on that will closely follow the story. m. bring you any updates. ok, maybe on some other news, the french government's been accused of ruling a health dictatorship of response to coven passes. people put onto the same powers to voice, their anger on thursday of defense is constitutional counsel will be, governments moves, legal and so to liberty. in the forty's we had a period of occupation and people need to, to, to, to show a paper to go here or here. and it's a bad memory hearing friends. yeah, we are because i speak on behalf of everyone, a little angry. it's not that we against the vaccine, but we have no one said because it is only 6 months old. we can no longer go to the cinema. or if children want to go to the cinema, if the parents are not vaccinated, then they cannot. well, we can no longer do anything. it's called the fund it scandalous because the french don't want it. we know very well that and the constitutional counsel, there are peopl

u. s. one is going to actually close down and move to an undisclosed location. that's the level of concern about security in central center of the capital. and so we have a double problem here, the logistics of the pull out as far as the government is concerned, and also domestic politics. the opposition saying that they are all disorganized, that they are effectively just just leaving africans in a terrible mess. it is betrayal, and also humiliation for its military. one key figure in a foreigner, fast select committee, chairman of that committee, said that it is at admission of total failure when you need reinforcements to hold the door open while your forces get out. thank you so much and are simmons reporting from downing street for agencies or warning of an unfolding humanitarian catastrophe? nearly 400000 off guns have been forced from their homes since the beginning of the year. and the un says 80 percent of people display since may are women and children . while more than $5000.00 civilian casualties have been reported in the 1st half of this year. more

u. s. coast guard. we just saw actually quite a big playing coming from the air force of chile. so different countries of bringing their right into the airport. and then it's been taken out by the apple and shop. it's helicopters for in plains to try and get to that region. a number of americans admitted into intensive care has raged levels. last same during the winter weighs more than half a year ago. and the surgeon new corona virus cases has been fueled by the more infectious delta strain. latest government data shows 20 percent of hospitals have nearly all of the i. c u beds occupied heidi joe castro reports from baton rouge and louisiana. one of the worst effected staying up a little bit 62 year old bobby burdette has just emerged from the covey intensive care unit at our lady of the lake hospital in baton rouge, louisiana staff have nicknamed him there miracle patient. most havent been leaving the i see you alive. i feel really well mom breathing has really gotten under control. burdette was never vaccinated and says he still has no regrets. his wife also tested positive.

and the fact is that you're seeing people from britain actually tried to cover for the politicians in the u. s. which makes me wonder, are they worried, they might actually have some dirt also when they released on them, they're just going to go on and cover everything right now. could that also be helping is we continue the story to not have any sort of closure at this point? well demonstrated, say the court opinion, public opinion is what matters after julia sanchez partner broke down in tears. and a question. one of the wiki leeks is spoke, people said we've got to now take it to the streets, a massive demonstration before the october 28th october 29th, the saturday before it. and in the global south, you know, they understand that it's interesting, here with the media, i'm not sure over there. should presumably me on the from pages of the part of the publications over there. but the new child motion posted and seems to be that bothered about the fact that the president maybe being struck here, which would de prison, that journalist for a long jail periods. so the meeting, i mean it's kind

u. s. is going to give israel 3300000000 in a most of that goes to military grad weapons grads. and there is no oversight about this. israel is actually the only country where the u. s. gives, in a lump sum and not in quarterly installment. and he doesn't know where the spending is taking place. and the us has done this for, you know, reputed a year after year in spite of the fact that there are in human rights violations that don't square with what the u. s. and security strategy is inviting security strategy. he mentioned again and again this idea of values and human rights and that age should be condition on human rights. but these 2 things don't seem to go together when it comes to israel, because this relationship is so deep and it doesn't really seem to matter what israel does. so, i mean, i think with this 1st meeting, this 1st meeting is probably more important to, to bennett a visual because he's a new prime minister. but in the long term, i tend to think that israel has tended to, to hold the cars and sort of the tail wagging the dog. let's get skipped, but get back to yak of nathan, i want to ask as well that is really prim

u. s. is showing no signs of actually stepping up its attack. so do you think that's likely to change? right, so the us still planning to completely withdraw their military forces by the end of the month, most of that withdrawal has already happened. still, to date, the u. s. is assisting with some air operations assisting afghan forces with some of these operations. but all of those are from planes that are being sent in from outs, where there's currently no plans on the ground in afghanistan to carry out the, the operations. and the military has so far, so they don't plan to increase. there isn't any way with the u. s is really looking to do right now is the hand over most of the operation to the african forces and trust the training that they've provided to them. but so far that hasn't really held and the african forces for the most part have been overrun or have surrendered to the taliban. and most of the cities and apartments that we're talking about. and in that hand, of course, this comes at a humanitarian cost. hundreds of afghans displace, do you think that's a factor in ameri

u. p. s. country. so this is actually an opportunity for europe and europeans to start with a new and different approach to the situation which would be more realistic and would focus on the actual reality of the current situation in yemen. well, staying with yemen, its received its 1st batch of johnson and johnson cove id. 19 vaccines or than 851000 doses. arrived at 8 and at or on the global kovak scheme. the country is now received about half a 1000000 doses through the us back initiative, or than 1400 yemen. nice have so far died from the virus. israel is offering booster shots at the cove and 19 vaccine to anyone above the age of 12. the country began administering fed shots of the fires a job to the elderly last month of official say, a boost is needed because the effectiveness of the vaccine weakens. after 6 months, thousands of people, grief rallied against mandatory coven, $900.00 vaccines for health workers. release fire t gas and water cannon to the best crowds that gathered outside parliament. demonstrated thr
