Branding it up for. Good morning welcome you watching our international where she is content here in moscow. The u. S. President donald trump has pulled the plug on afghan peace talks with the taliban which it was hoped would bring americas longest war to an end he blamed the terrorist groups recent attack on kabul in which an american soldier was killed the taliban warns that scrapping talks will result in more u. S. Losses. They admitted to an attack in kabul that killed one of our great great soldiers and 11 other people if they cannot agree to a ceasefire during these very important peace talks the most probably dont have the power to negotiate a meaningful agreement anyway the u. S. President called off the peace dialogue this will lead to more losses to the u. S. Is credibility will be affected his anti peace stance will be exposed to the world losses to lives and assets will increase or problems handling of the peace talks with the taliban which could have ended americas 18 years of military involvement in afghanistan and bipartisan criticism the us targeted the group for giving shelter to al qaeda terrorists before but before the invasion though u. S. Relations with the taliban were very different smart guys the reports after almost 2 decades of war this could have been the big break but no back to war as luck would have it peace in negotiations werent on the medias mind when they found out they were outraged that trump should dare talk to the enemy that was murderous villains through their fight against the us occupation. The problem with the council of afghanistan talks was not the timing locale or recent taliban violence it was the reality that the talks were designed to provide a cover for u. S. Troop withdrawal rather than peace and would help the taliban while undermining the Afghan Government never should lead is a terrorist organization that hasnt renounced kind 11 and continues an evil be allowed in a great country never full stop for the us to meet with the taliban and not have the leader of afghanistan to make meet with the taliban is something thats doomed to failure the whole thing doesnt quite make sense i mean its just another example of the president truly treating our Foreign Policy like its some kind of game show this isnt a game show these are terrorists listening to them youd never know that by the late ninetys the taliban which was already hosting asama bin laden were invited to the us is on the guests for business by Us Energy Company talks and laying pipelines talks supported by the government it was very you know they have this shadow we image i guess you call it that i found a very straightforward and. I think the Clinton Administration was really committed to helping you know American Business to be successful. We enjoyed. Really strong support. For military analyst julie sirs to report for the Defense Intelligence agency pointing out that there were alternatives to the taliban we didnt go down well with her superiors. The state department didnt want to have anything to do with the Afghan Resistance war even politically to reveal that there was any viable option to do taliban she was apparently forced out soon after i heard that some people at the state department were people among those more sympathetic with the taliban at that time so there might have been some political reasons as well but ultimately i was forced to leave a year later bin laden and al qaida orchestrated 2 attacks on us embassies in africa 224. 00 People Killed and yet still the us entertained the taliban the same taliban then governing of gotta start and which tolerated al qaida on its soil was invited back to the us in 2001 on the fischel state visit during which job does the dignitaries explained their virtuous treatment of woman and now when theres. Security or not. Busy overworking. Its right there a woman in the ministry of defense. Its very bad we dont use them as of the advertisement. Theyre not for you or. For many other things. For months before 911. 00 the u. S. Sent 43000000. 00 to the taliban a reward for fighting narcotics trafficking who would have known that just months later america would invade to start a war that would last for almost 2 decades the United States have been cooperated with dean in afghanistan for a long time they didnt see them as that dangerous they saw them as people who would stay over there and and they thought they could use them but this changed on 911 today inviting the taliban to the United States to try to. Do to arrange what they call a peace deal is a very difficult optics for the president especially as we get close to the anniversary of the september bombing the one hand it does seem hypocritical for the United States to meet with the taliban today after promising to destroy them on the other hand its the necessity of defeat the United States has been fighting for 18 years and it is the American Public is tired of it so the president s in a dilemma he wants to look strong and he wants to help American Allies but the same time the cost has gotten bigger and bigger and the American Public are fed up there you have it the u. S. Wouldnt hear a bad word about the taliban why did the mover is on a guest plan to build pipelines together but peace talks in 2019 that albeit is something america just current and paid. The of there while the u. S. And the taliban had been in negotiations for almost a year although the talks didnt involve the Afghan Government the taliban demanded the draw of all foreign troops from afghanistan while america wanted guarantees that the group would not assist International Terrorism a draft accord been reached last week currently the taliban controls more afghan territory village any point since the us invasion in 2001 when the peace talks were still active the taliban never committed to halting attacks in the country in fact the group stepped up its campaign of terror we got reaction to trumps decision to abandon peace talks from people in kabul. Because one of their soldiers presumably the general was killed in a Suicide Attack or Abdul Haq Square he called off the peace talks while so Many Afghan Army forces and civilians are killed on a daily basis they do not think about the quarter the peace talks began the suicide bombings and attacks have increased in our people have been killed and they had accepted peace they should have announced a cease fire and then the talks moved forward. Meanwhile the u. S. Special envoy for middle east peace has resigned casting doubt on existing Israeli Palestinian resolution plans jason green blatt was a key figure in the trumpet ministrations efforts in the region and its unclear now if his successor will be able to put his plans into practice with a man taking over of it he graduated from law school 3 years ago and according to reports has no middle east experience up to now hes worked as an aide to trump son in law jared cushion. Well the former envoy green blatt had received criticism from popular decisions in the arab world supporting the relocation of the us embassy to jerusalem and recognizing israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights but his decision to leave the job is now raising questions over what happens next the trumpet ministrations long delayed peace plan is set for publication after these ready elections in september but previously leaked details of paid to highlight the decisions like an expansion of israels territory to include west Bank Settlements while palestinians would get past the gaza strip for infrastructure but live there the leagues she jested palestinians would be forbidden from having an army to you because expert analysis on how all of this could play. First of all lets agree that there might be a plan that the Us Administration is working on but that peace is not part of it and the palestinians are not part of it then thats why the palestinians have to take in the very logical approach informing the International Community that for long because this administration does not recognize troublous to me and writes International Law theres really not much to talk about if the palestinians are going to simply boycott mr greenberg boycott mr trump boycott the saudis boycott anything before theyve even seen the play and then theres no opportunity for a gauge of it this is the time for engagement not for boycotts and when you start to boycott the arab world and the United States youre going down a very slippery slope going back to their own. Nobody is well i can tell the syrians palestine is an integral part of the arab world mr greenblatt is someone who has is not only committed ideologically to the Settler Movement he is a contributor to the entrancement of the supplement regime which is illegal under in turn. National law in the heart of the occupied west bank so there was never. A moment where this Administration Even made a slight effort to give the impression that it has any inclination or any interest in being balanced in being objective its the Palestinian Authority that have got to get with the program they live in the middle east that they essentially believe they are the center of the middle east and theyre really theyve really become a footnote and theyre about to throw the throw themselves excuse me into the waste basket of history of the less they begin to engage with the greatest superpower on earth which is the troubled ministration who truly wants the best for the Palestinian People and is trying yet again after 25 years of failures to help the Palestinian People and their israeli neighbors come to a diplomatic political and economic solution and the palestinians throughout the past years with successive american administrations have bent over backwards to try and reach a solution that would guarantee a real 2 state formula now if youre talking about formulas that were presented that would give the palestinians far less than a state then naturally the palestinian leadership which is accountable to the Palestinian People cannot accept something that is not acceptable less than a palestinian state its time for the Palestinian Authority to pony up and get with the program so that they can achieve the type of independence that israel can have the type of the rights and security that the jewish people so much deserve in this part of the world so its a win win recognizing israels illegal annexation of jerusalem has been rejected worldwide recognizing israels illegal annexation of the syrian golan has been rejected worldwide a win win situation in the middle east is quite simple and it starts by putting the occupation in the historic waste bin. And on your religious performance in germany has come under fire from the Animal Rights organization are calling for dunking removed from the show depicting the last days of jesus christ and she jest instead an actor rides in on a nice. These days jesus would no longer travel by dont key he would presumably move a money scooter or some other electric vehicle that is kind to animals and the environment or the man has been criticized by performers the playing jesus says they are representing a specific moment in time and the scooter quote doesnt really fit the events being held in the south a gym in the southern germany states of bavaria since the 17th century with few changes and its not just those on stage slamming the suggestions made by Animal Rights campaigns. This is supposed to ride on these couture instead of a donkey it could not be more idiotic. I was in jerusalem and there is a ban on the use of electric vehicles in the old town i understand the criticism itself but seriously jesus on a nice scooter while everything around is historically correct oh. Animal welfare is taken into account a lot in germany and European Countries in many countries throughout the world Animal Welfare is well taken and what is not taking counsel patiently is Human Welfare peta has had essence mission to divert attention away from human suffering and focus attention on less important issues and peta has probably no knowledge of the german loss but a lot of that is very strict and it has its limits but it also has privileges and certain privileged organizations can as long as they follow the strict procedures that the law provides use animals in their performances watching i say just coming up to quarter past 10 here in moscow were back with more nice just awful. The barbarians the vandals on wall street are now actively plundering your bank account with a negative Interest Rate and a sonic amount of policy there and theres no economics behind it that would cue to any school of economics that has ever existed as dr Michael Hudson said since the bronze age its just out right. Hello again now the mayor of london city has spoken out against a major. City in his city he described the event is apparent and says he strongly opposes it london is a global city which is home to individuals who fled conflict and suffered as a consequence of on some weapons like those exhibited it d. C. I. In order to represent london his interests i will take any opportunity available to prevent this event from taking place at the world talks in future years. Well the defense and Security Equipment International is the Worlds Largest arms exhibition and has been mired in controversy before back in 2013 for example torture equipment was found on sale at the fair and critics also point to those doing the shopping among them saudi arabia and also iraq meanwhile human rights activists say that the u. K. Is facilitating atrocities the u. K. Is the 2nd largest arms exporter to saudi arabia despite a court of appeal to carrying the sales are nor fall since 2015 riyadh has led to military intervention in yemen with its coalition accused of war crimes meanwhile hundreds of protesters took to the streets of london ahead of the fair antiwar activists campaigning to highlight the deadly consequences of the weapons trade. Reports now on why the arms fire is getting so Much Negative attention. This is a british with a twist held only every 2 years theres no candyfloss teacups or soft toys no the largest weapons in the wild is in town. D s e i attracts armed companies and military delegations from all over the world backed by the ministry of to fads its the kind of that youd expect the media to be keen to get involved in who its not so easy to pass the security checks take in a virtual war correspondent is what alongside the British Military he should fit the bill each application in the information submitted is assessed on the case by case basis after reviewing europe location we are unable to establish that you are a journalist and editor a Production Team member in a role in field mr cobain trying to convince them with his reports for the likes of the guardian and Times Newspapers covering everything from Northern Ireland to bosnia and saudi arabia no luck though and its a decision thats provoked a strong reaction. Ian cobain is an Award Winning journalist it is absurd that the Security Team for the arms for have taken it upon themselves to decide he is on suitable to attend the event it is totally unacceptable for a journalist to be refused access in this way and it is a sinister breach of press freedom the arms spec comes at a time of increased scrutiny over the u. K. s weapons sales back in june westminster was forced to freeze any deals with saudi arabia after a court ruled the unlawful amid allegations that british arms were being used in the yemen conflict now the u. N. Says arms tennis could be complicit in alleged war crimes there are certain states who are well known to be supplying weapons that includes the United States it includes the United Kingdom and it includes france to name but 3 the group of experts has recommended that 3rd states prohibit the authorization about transfers and refrain from providing arms to parties to the conflict still its perhaps no surprise that riyadh is the guest of honor at this is d. S. C. I an even less of a surprise that antiwar activists are stepping up that charge the weapons that should be the ts yarm spear can be used for decades to come in atrocities and looking particularly this destruction of yemen we have to remember that the soviet regime is by far the Worlds Largest buyer if you keep weapons and we know that these are being used to commit atrocities christine atrocity after chastity after atrocity and my traces would not be possible without the weapons which had been licensed by Boris Johnson and his colleagues but with the weapons market what 14000000000. 00 pounds a year so little control policy to be on the safe side though curious an experience would correspondence probably but a cat in the d. S. E. Dog suffocate ought to. The u. S. Budget deficit is expected to hit a trillion dollars next year and questions are being raised over how american taxpayer money is being spent in fact a new report by a kentucky senator has highlighted some of the more bizarre examples of government waste. A retired u. S. Navy commander is suing the pentagon and the alleging that they are delaying the publication of his book about the former defense secretary jim mattis guy snodgrass worked as a speechwriter for mass is before resigning 2080 is a book promise is an insiders account of the Defense Department during the trunk of ministration and was set to come out at the end of october but now snodgrass accuses officials of deliberately dragging out the manuscript review and shared communications from the process. Im still finishing the manuscript and will of course be submitting the book review i dont go anywhere near the crash of flight in from all sources methinks. I regret that you appear to be violating the trust that you as a member of my staff being in my private meeting. Him on a separate memoir by matters has already hit the shelves and hes been busy on the promotion circuit. When you started writing the book call sign chaos colonel has another outstanding suggestion so lets turn to your book in the book you write check out his brand new book why did you write about him when he spotted him thats going to general state in dolphin believes that commercial interests might be feeling that unless he wants to get a lot of sales and if he has an aide who is writing a tell all book about what things were like working under trump theyd split is going to be a lot better and how this is so matt is trying to keep the other book off the shelves for as long as he can all of this stuff is hype its all of that making money selling as many books as you can and seeing that youve got you know these hoops that people will want to hear about it think theres there is a market in among the American Public to hearing what really goes on in the Trump White House and so if theres people inside who can give you an acct oats and let you see whats happening whats really happening. And you know people are going to want to buy it and watching i think things from company this morning dont forget that kinds of stories taking out a website about you know. What politicians do. They put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president or injury. Or somehow want to be rich. Have to go right to be cross its like that before 3 in the morning cant be good that im interested always in the waters in the house. Last question. The food a bit of good tennis and bad veterans the bad news in yemen the United States deems to be a threat the looked at those who work in syria the cia and the us military were engaged in covert actions really throughout the world. Where they were assassinating populist leaders they were backing up the right way military juntas funding an army just was theres no phones anymore because theres always a small call of people for a really good thats good for profit. Shows seemed wrong when all rolls just dont hold. Any new gold yet to say proud disdainfully comes to educate and engage with equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart. Just to look for common ground. Well you know they were kind of adopted because we were called pirates for so long. Being there in the small boats next it hard pulling ships and its. The little self to big fish already 90 percent of the dot and wall and connor. 15 scoops 17 tons they do it several times a day with a big fleet oh you get an idea. We have to understand we can still use to just. Be with them this is going to go. Im doing this because i want to the future world to future generations to have and enjoy the ocean we have. A low pain welcomed across time for all things are considered im Peter Lavelle attempting to end one war while avoiding a new one as usual the trump administrations Foreign Policy is unpredictable and even contradictory there are no better examples than afghanistan and the red. Cross talking some real news im joined by my guest here in moscow he is the founder of the center of the. You can also strap poll we also have dimitri bobbitt she is a political analyst and editor at me internet media project and in london we cross the charles shoe bridge he is a security analyst and a former u. K. Army and counterterrorism Intelligence Officer originally crosstalk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate let me go to charles 1st in london while this story with afghanistan in the quote unquote Peace Process is take a very interesting turn from what weve been told leadership members of the taliban were supposed to go to camp david and i guess maybe tie a bow on this again quote unquote Peace Process here i dont buy that story it was on the back of a Taliban Attack in one american was killed and 11 other people were killed thats the story of the last 18 years ok was of the story of the last few days here my supposition is trump got cold feet because he doesnt know where its going to go and its not a political winner for him with the Foreign Policy blog not necessarily with the American People we can get into that go ahead charles whats your take i think theres something in what you say here i dont think its as it appears certainly i think trump has had misgivings as indeed as a lot of the yes we can say Foreign Policy establishment of course trump is sometimes in that sometimes outside of that circle but i think he would share some of the views that hes been strongly pressured particular of the last few days and weeks
