u. s. military believes there about 2000. i saw k fighters within afghanistan, he said that they posed the biggest threat to the u. s. over the last few days and not the taliban at all. but he said it's now and he said essentially, well the u. s. is no longer has a physical presence in afghanistan, they still have a very capable and probably the world's most powerful air force and are still able to carry out any sort of military operations that are the commander in chief would deem necessary. should that be the case? still, the u. s. has many bases within the region. of course, the bottom line though is it was a pretty frank assessment of where things were at. but very interesting. and the last day that the u. s. was in afghan stand sort of complimenting and tipping their hand to the afghan to the taliban for their help securing the airport on those critical final days and weeks money. thanks for that. gabriel and his andre efforts in washington dc. well, as we mentioned earlier, the you unsecure to council adopted a resolution to let people who want to leave afghanistan de so safely. but it's not known if the taliban will go alon

and for all, he mentioned that the last 5 u. s. military planes left the very last one he said, carried with it the military commander on the ground as well as the us ambassador to afghanistan. and then it was rolling down the, the plane rolled down the runway and wheels up and that pretty much ended it. he did confirm that there are absolutely no u. s. military personnel at all in afghanistan at this hour. he said that he believes that there, this is the biggest, completing the biggest evacuation ever carried out by the u. s. military just to give you some numbers. mackenzie said that 823000 civilians were evacuated by the military, u. s. military and their partners in the last few weeks since the taliban gain control of cobble. he said that 6000 us citizens had been evacuated as well. and interestingly enough, he was very complimentary towards the taliban saying to taliban were helpful and useful. those were his words. over the last several days and weeks i said the taliban did were very useful in enforcing a very strong perimet

u. s. military or the last few days. but there are a lot of questions about how to conduct themselves in the future. sandy are listening to the pentagon briefing earlier. there was an on previous to that listening to the book in the security council. there was a loss to talk about making sure that have gone on does not become a hot bed for terror. and then of course we heard the marine corps general say that the biggest threat he thinks to the taliban is the number of the 2000 hard core fighters of isis k. and he said that's going to be the biggest challenge for the taliban. how would you see this fragmented situation playing out on the ground? it is to been the bite in administration, had underestimated terrorism threat from a guy's done in general these last few months. it did not see the stomach stayed in the sky, present biting, referring to this group to be a major problem until a few months ago. but the, a for today definitely put pressure on the u. s. government. and as somebody in general noted, you know, pressur

u. s presence in afghanistan will be written about and studied for years to come. there was a clear miscalculation by the u. s intelligence community, who last week thought it would take 90 days. for the taliban to reach kabul in just three days, the afghan capital has fallen into the hands of taliban fighters in jerusalem. tray angst, fox news. secretary of state anthony blinken said today that staying in afghanistan was simply not in the best strategic interests of the united states. you know, the in the 19th century, the british were there. we've now been there far longer than they have in the 20th century. the russians were there. we've now been there twice as long as they have as a strategic matter. there is nothing that our strategic competitors would like more than to see us bogged down and mired in afghanistan for another 5 10 20 years that is not in the national interest, blinken went on to say that there would be a small american diplomats. presence at the kabul airport, while americans and others were evacuated earlier today, on mornings on two we talked to a usf political science professor, he says. as bad as it looks right now i

u. s. thought that they could try to pull off over the last 20 years. well the u. s. is trying to engage in nation building. i mean the u. s. and when military, we were entirely successful with every engagement with the taliban and insurgent force and happiness. and keep in mind that this is a political defeat, not a military one for the u. s. i was a, it was a loss of will and lack of thinking. we didn't have a, we ended up fighting a 20 year war. not a 20. your so much is one year war 20 times over. so there's a real distinction there. obviously the russians have a lot of experience in afghan and like the united states, it was not a pleasant part of russian history. the russians want to, will they be able to have the basing and touch it gets done and is becca stand to be able to build a type of build up the type of infrastructure necessary for an incursion against and remember in the cold war, when the russians were last there, so she started his breakfast and were part of the soviet union, not really any more. so the question is, the big question, the biggest quest

u. s. yeah, it really is interesting to see how china is responding to the policies we've seen from the u. s. over the last few years. now another story that came up this week was the fact that the chinese government is also moving to regulate the algorithms used by tech companies like fight, dance, and tens, that whole thing. now of course, china is known for having strict controls that and the majority of social media sites we use here in the u. s. so what kind of an impact is this restriction on individual algorithms expected to have? well, i think it's a huge, over step by the government to try to regulate the algorithms of private company. essentially what they're saying is, hey, you're doing too good of a job at what you're built to do. we need you to tone it down a bit and be less powerful and thus less profitable. the csc released a 30 point draft proposal friday, and a soliciting public feedback until september 26. and these new rules will regulate algorithm empowered recommendation activities on the internet, including content aggregation, personalized recommendation and search ranking. and this

u. s. withdrew 3 years ago. there's been international pressure after a deadly attack last week on a ship in the persian gulf, the u. s. and other countries say iran is to blame white group, say there was about a crackdown and protest because a stan province which approved fatal over dwindling water supplies. and i says one of his goals is to end government corruption. what, how may de bashi is a professor of iranian studies at columbia university is joining us live from new york is very good to have with us and colleges either. so thank you very much. indeed. we heard the new president say just a moment ago, he was not going to connect the airlines economy to the lifting of the us sanctions . is it possible to do that or the 2 intertwined? they are, the 2 are intertwined. it is impossible. iranian economy is massive. oil based is a economy predicated on the sale of oil and domestic gross national product is not sufficient. and as a result, the impact of the u. s. that sanctions against over the last 2 decades at least even more have been devastating.

u. s. just a little bit divided on if this was the right thing to do, but especially if the last 2 weeks or so have gone smoothly or not. bottom line, no, it's over. the u. s. is now out of afghanistan, and joe biden is hoping that this is what people will remember the most gave elephant. they are joining me live from washington. d. c. gave, thank you will. earlier, the republican leader in the house of representatives heavily criticized the us with role played out. kevin mccarthy wanted the white house to explain how it's getting remaining americans over time. what is the plan to get americans out? never in my lifetime. would i ever believe america would have it administration knowingly make a decision to leave americans behind? whereas just 2 weeks ago, the president promised this nation that he would not leave until every single american was out. for 2 weeks away of the 20th anniversary of 911. we now have americans stuck in afghan to spend the taliban in charge with mo, more weaponry than they've ever had in the past. and a border that is open. oh, can i speak to bret boone, who was the
