even if you don't care about syria, if you're interested in a isk, syria -- iraq, syria very related to that. to expand on each element of those, obviously now we just heard isis just released a statement, a video showing -- of the first time since june 2014. he looks very healthy, despite recent reports saying -- including from defectors and people captured by isis, who said he was a link, sick -- ailing, sick, slim. exactly as heks appeared in 2014. he grew a beard more slowly than i did. that's a significant video, massive propaganda for the group. over the past two years we have seen people were saying he's ,rrelevant, dying, very angry all this was gleaned from reporting from captured isis commanders. it seems like he is healthy and more importantly, the organization is very healthy. i'm talking about the core of the organization and that has implications beyond syria. affiliates of isis, and this is the biggest failure, in my opinion, by the u.s. led coalition, is that isis has been able to transition safely from being a caliphate holding territory, we know the story, into beco

some of them are now on their way back home many are already here following i asked this collapse in syria and iraq both men and women and among them are vicious killers and war criminals of those who have returned a number are already on trial what should germany do with them should they answer for their crimes and be sent to prison should social workers help them integrate back into society into neighborhood schools workplaces. islamic state terror today just how dangerous are returning fighters i'm brian thomas and joining me here in berlin to talk about that is amir masowe he works for media outlets here in germany and in iraq he says some i asked attorneys are dangerous but more dangerous is the updated ideology they bring with them. allan poe's and as a commentator for the daily newspaper de velde he argues if we want other states to take back their citizens who we consider terrorists then we have to take back our citizens who have committed terrorist acts and kristen helberg is a featured mideast analyst in a number of european publications she points out i yes is militarily defeate

syria, which is about 1/3 of syria or more. now we just heard isis just release a statement, a video showing al baghdadi for the first time since he declared the califate in 2014. he looks very healthy fp despite the report in recently over the past two years, saying and concluding from defectors and people captured by the iraqis, who said he was ailing, he's sick, slim, it wasn't like what he appeared -- how he appeared in 2014. i think he looks exactly like he appeared in 2014, except he grew a little older. i think probably more slowly than i did. over the past few years, people said he's relevant, dying, very angry. what was gleaned from captured isis commanders. it seems like he's healthy. more importantly, the organization is is very healthy. i'm talking about the core of the organization. not the califate. and that has implications way beyond syria, in fact for about two years, what we're seeing is the affiliates of isis, and this is the biggest failure in my opinion by the u.s. led coalition is that isis has been able t

s about syria you spent a lot of time in the country let's get a a demographic of our average i-s. fighter jet hottest who is he and what drew him to fight in syria to fight in iraq well it's not that easy because behind the one thousand and fifty german fighters there are one thousand personal stories they are quite young the majority of them they have radicalized very quickly usually over the internet so some of them are converts german citizens convert some of them are migration and they have a migration background in germany but i think what generalizes them would be that they feel alienated from german society they felt that this is not their country this would be from women for example who left the kind of fed who said that i don't want to educate my children in this country i feel i'm a part of this country personal frustration maybe as a muslim feeling you know this new anti muslim ideas many german citizens so this is a general question of why did these citizens german citizen not feel at home in germany ok then how did they radical as you know this is a this is basically

special forces in syria i suppose illegally you would say. i only know from the news out there that there were forces but it is forces supporting the americans but all of them not illegal in my country we did not invite them to come on the way consider that any force that came to syria without the invitation of the government is in the that force. ok well reuters is claiming that the united states is trying to stop arab countries from reopening embassies in damascus who is going to reconstruct syria are you making deals with russia china india presumably north post brics of britain who is going to be building syria again the ones who will visiting i gain out of the syrian people you will be said of prize since the. fall was liberated since home so of liberated you would be said of pride at the amount of work that the syrian people did with their little means with their little money they have that of course a lot of friends would would be welcome but i shall would be welcomed china would be was come. it out and would be well come all the peopl

hold them to work to syria. what happen there should be a journalism none of this way of doing things do you think that people like should we move begum should be arrested and tried in a syrian court yeah i think if there were other hand and i wanted entity they should be at us because they were an aide to the federalist and they should be tried and if it encodes of course but you have that if they were can you know what people do you have the death penalty that would mean the king of britain's citizenship and then could you be executed in syria if convicted of aiding isis when you know i don't like the onset hypothetical question but i would like to tell you about what britain and your of of the united states did code that penalties to hundreds of thousands of students at his and off innocent third instances and many villages and i've been many thousands and this is what i thought i knew that they care about life in utero or in the faith but they don't care about life in syria that over they have that thousand

i think syria is different. the russians had a really serious presence in syria until the end of the cold war. when i was working on the subject in reagan administration, we were constantly looking at the range of backfire bombers that could get from syria to libya and refuel and go back to the soviet union. it was a serious threat. it is a very important course. they've been there for a long time. they are not going to get out anytime soon. the chinese, okay. let me say two things about china. what you are seeing in china do in the middle east is what china is doing everywhere. this is a global issue. they are everywhere. they are not going to stop. the one problem i would raise is that the middle east is one area where they do have a major major competitor. india is only a matter of miles from the middle east. the indian army, liberated the middle east from the germany under the british. there indian wars cemeteries all over the middle east. india has historic stake in that region of the world and they are par

and that has implications way beyond syria. for two years, what we are seeing the fighters of isis and the national-led coalition, isis has transitioned safely from being a caliphate from hole territory into becoming an underground insurance organization. ut contrary to my isis has expanded not just going a erground but expanded in way we expect two years from now. isis outside syria and iraq has become more like isis. they are closest to isis. that moment is big when they losted the caliphate. and see some elements of it and we are no longer part of baghdadi's group. we haven't seen it. that is very, very significant and has implications for a long time. if he manages to say, i built a call tate, trns ised from insurgency for another moment another opportunity for the future and syria, iraq and wider region, he could position himself, present himself in the future as a leader who made a difference. if he was killed. as the caliphate collapsed that would undermine that for a long time and present an alternative to it. >> but st

why did they go to syria hold up to them to work to syria what happened there shouldn't be as journalism none of this way of doing things do you think that people like shamima begum should be arrested and tried in a syrian court yeah i think if they were held and i wanted unfettered to be they should be at us because they were an aide to the federalists and they should be tried and if it end quote of course but you have that if they were can you know what people do you have the death penalty that would mean that really looking at britain's citizenship and then could she be executed in syria if convicted of aiding isis diana well you know i don't like the onset hypothetical question but i would like to tell you about this what britain and you know of and they have not did save did course that penalties the hundreds of thousands of students at his and off innocent students that isn't in many villages. i'm in many towns and this is what i don't do that they care about life in utero or in the states but they don't care about life in syria that over they have the thousand people where needles

to reach stability and peace in syria. to give this to the peace process in syria and we have to coordinate our efforts with the u.n. . there needs to be a constitutional committee established in the near future and then we will be able to solve the problems all that region. there is mutual understanding between turkey and russia and. as there is a will to continue the relations. in conclusion i would like to express my gratitude to mr putin for his hospitality again for awhile to me personally and our delegation and i would also like to invite mr putin to hold hold the next. committee in our country. where you will with the decisions that were made i hope will benefit both of our countries and people in our country's history to its people one of those two questions from each side for the first. turkey and russia so let's start with the turkish journalists. chris angel bush for his. cause but mr president. so i do wish him good luck with you. today but there was a huge divide with you meeting and you mostly discussed econo

hosing us were as we used to be under pressure from syria we are friends we're not occasions by syria the various segments of the syrian opposition know that when all the political forces in the region know that we are friends. for as a first and second they have this when i say we support a potential cause of the most and the most that and most certainly will be willing to accept any that all any contribution and this yes to achieve that sort of vertical solution in the person i said jim knew that with you we contacted some parties but they refused to get into it a.j. i know with the regime so any any group that wants i would rather be dialogue with the regime and would like us to be to be go betweens will be more than happy to mediate either but we are asking others and we have to do just to make the effort to help to to create a political solution. i believe that these opposition groups would find his followers grow more credible if you said to the syrian regime of us so that we have a red line. is the syrian regime free to do what it wants as far as hezbollah is concerned for all

fight our way into syria he killed in fighting and she came back to germany and. another guy went against second time there this isn't a this is an example to show you how dangerous they are you've interviewed a number of women women the brides of the liars fighters. was there an attraction to the anti feminist message that is part of the city ology what drew them in the the women you talk to while in the end of the day that women live in the kind of sharia. imagination that the woman for a play the role as a host wife she should serve her man and she is she should keep herself in holds she serve the religions she serve the god when she is. this is a kind of you can't say it until phantom ism like this but also with the communal energy inside because they look to others as unbelievers and they do not accept even to talk with someone i came from iraq and i talk with her she said i don't want to talk with you because you are i believe are something that i think our perspective can we get it here is there you can roll your eyes a better christian we're not going to t

i think syria is different. the russians had a serious presence in syria. the end of the cold war, when i was working on this subject, we were constantly looking at a range of backfire bombers from syria to libya and refuel and go back to the soviet union. it was a serious threat. they have been there for a long time. they are not going to get out anytime soon. the chinese, okay. let me say two things about china. what you are seeing in the middle east is what china is doing everywhere. they are everywhere. they are not going to stop. the one problem i would raise is the middle east is one area, they have -- from the middle east. the indian army, liberated the middle east and their indian war senators all over. there is a historic stake in that region of the world and particularly worried about china's encroachment into the bay of bengal, its cooperation with pakistan and that is why india is working with iran to develop a big base that offsets, the china has built for pakistan. the chinese face a problem and sooner or later india may start flexing its musc

when you look at syria you've got to a situation such as syria you got to think we've got to collect the evidence we've got to safeguard the evidence because for future prosecutions we never thought the charles taylor would be held accountable we never thought that right of encourage it who has just received life and president would be held accountable the those who are responsible in syria will be held accountable the i.c.c. doesn't have jurisdiction over syria as i said what we are trying to do now when we filed the beginning of march with the prosecutor which is now being considered it is for the crime of force deportation the same as the situation of my mom and our group is hopeful with the support of the trip and the commission of inquiry that the prosecutor will be given sufficient evidence to to investigate and then potentially bring charges but what you've got to understand and i say this having dealt with those near rwanda iraq libya is that we can't expect this to happen overnight it won't happen overnight and the majority of the situation is going to fall on syrians and sy

the room somewhere in northern syria. tens of thousands of people live in the overcrowded refugee camp. among them children wounded men and women and perhaps islamic state militants. want to return to their home countries as quickly as possibl. one is they not give. she used to live in berlin with her turkish husband. on a visit to turkey he forced her to accompany him to syria when he joined the i. s. according to her statements. now her husband is dead. as a strictly spots the eases it's horrible the crimes isis committed in the name of islam. i'm hoping i'll be allowed to come back to my beloved home country germany. hi martin i'm don't cheat on her son was born during the war. now she's hoping the worst is behind her [inaudible] talk she cruel things happened there. women and children have no value at all. women were horribly mistreated by isis honda. whether complicit or not should isis followers get a second chance. what do you think there is she telling the truth and how do you go about ascertaining something like

syria only traditionally friendly neighbor syria vital trade instead of the high cost of air cargo or shipping by sea traders hope to benefit from there. a few months ago but lebanese politicians ok. as to the syrian government believe a political price will have to be paid. work. again and again pressures on the lebanese at the time when we witness some lebanese parties requesting normalization of the syrian regime and this is. at the start of syria's civil war eight years ago didn't cut diplomatic ties but hasn't had official links. the syrian government wants to end its isolation the west however is refusing to recognize president bashar assad's government until it implements political reforms it has also pressured its allies in the arab world to put on hold we integrating syria into the arab fold. syria's decision to reopen the border crossing with jordan late last year to jordan softening its stance towards assad but it seems jordan's moves to normalize relations haven't been enough jordan's exports to syria are down by seventy percent. of the syrian jordanian technical committee

but also the countries need wider international support in the west if syria is to end its isolation and receive war reconstruction funding russia is pushing for progress on the political track sending diplomats to the syrian capital as well as to the saudi capital to meet the opposition. so. russia. the russians and iranians believe they won the war for us said but turkish troops and their local allies remain in northern syria u.s. troops and their kurdish allies are in the north east multiple players are involved in syria all maneuvering for their place when peace eventually comes. beirut the united nations is evacuating more than three hundred refugees from the detention center and southern tripoli because of the deteriorating security situation that they moved to a facility in northwestern libya after fighting reached because the bit in the shade detention center where they've been held five other detention centers are in areas already and cult of the battle between the u.n. recognize government and forces loyal to warlord. the u.s. state department has condemned myanmar after it

is soft on syria. is soft on brain. is hard on syria and. is hard on. the brainy government. why is this. i mean the dictatorship that syria the syrian people is suffering from is exactly the say that in tunisia before before they were lucian and this is why we we feel very close to the syrian people we understand that they are what they are feeling because they are fighting against corruption and i could tell it is against . the state of fear and. we feel very very close to them because. sometimes we feel that we have also some responsibility you know because i can say that if we didn't have the revolution here in tunisia probably it wouldn't happen in syria or in egypt so we feel this kind of responsibility very close we understand them and that fight for democracy for human rights is our own and we have to support them. and we have to forget about you know. people like him you know think that syria is because he is you know against israel they can forgive to do this dictatorship everything but we hear when we don't have this problem we are not interested in the fight betwe

that's their own decision, and it's for our benefit in iraq and syria to clear syria from all terrorism and extremism organizations. we have to have them back as a participant with the international community. myself invited the speaker in syria to come to iraq and visit raq in april to have a joint conversation with him at the parliament level, and i extended an invitation to other peakers of the neighboring countries, to bring them all this way. syria will come back to the arab world, to the international -- be a participant in the international community. nancy: so one more question about iran. his is about iran waivers, and it's given the importance of electricity to iraq and to baghdad in particular, but also very important for business development in iraq. do you expect future waivers from the united states on iran sanctions to allow electricity development? speaker al-halbousi: the situation in iraq is distinguished and different. how to deal with iran than any other country. 1,400 kilometers, that's our borderline with iran. we do not want any problems between iraq and iran, jus

cd and syria was a model of. the points about on our agenda today we will continue our effective kark aeration together that iran working. on the basis of the acid of last fall which. is the dearest almost that is from syria now we need to be sure safety here are the ground that we need to force the political. situation settled by the when accordance with the twenty two fifty four resolution of the old security council and he. kardex we agree to coordinate our efforts with the united nations syria the government of syria the opposition so that syria cheever the early start of the work of the constitutional committee we discussed the situation will either be escalations over further prospects to play badly so should. i do hope that our joint efforts world help to dog allies is a shared a decidedly it is collation so another round it and that will allow was to finally ready kate every last bit of terrorism the same time we need to remember bob to preserve a shred of serious. sovereignty only the country should not

of the loss of the last village by who's in eastern syria a month ago the organization. still alive and kicking not only in sri lanka but also in saudi arabia and as we know in iraq this is a disturbing message he's saying we may not have a. caliphate but the organization is still able to attack where and when it wants to well but we know that the organization has prepared for the day when they lose. territory in iraq in syria by building i asked provinces from two thousand and fourteen in libya on the sinai in yemen and in many many other countries even the philippines and thereby they have broadened they have widened the front and he talks in this video he keeps talking about the provinces and about the need to fight the west. worldwide. we knew that isis is still alive he must know that as well so why publish this video when what's the purpose of showing his face to the world to get i think the purpose is to show the whole world that. he has not been defeated in many important politicians believe that that the fight is over in iraq and syria you know they have said sa

it plays like syria or iraq. there is this fiction out there, i think, that the american public always has to be driving toward an exit. the american public will not let 150,000 troops sit in a country long-term, taking significant amount of casualties. that was not sustainable. the strategy based around that was not sustainable. small, long-term american presence. part of the point of the report is specifically engineered to deal with certain conflicts, but not taking major kaiser these -- casualties, but still having positive impact. that is completely sustainable. the public does not really care that much about that. unless politicians generate it were convinced themselves but i don't think 2020 will be decided based on -- even from -- i don't think it will make a difference. i give more space to the politicians give themselves and a lot of this is talking about the panel, iraq's hangups which are still there from 2003 in impacts so much of american decision-making. i will stick with you for a minute and shift

on the ground collecting evidence there are around forty investigators working inside syria. and it's not in this model heavy. other list we have of us stop the thought of the film and i haven't asked for that eleven. during one of these missions adl got his hands on documents abandoned by the syrian army. in the midst of war his priority is to secure evidence. that it was minor or. come. at them of the. moment. in a war zone where death and destruction is rampant food and medical care is scarce risking your life for a few pieces of paper can seem trivial. to us in the midst of that and say that. at the. time i thought. your chance. had a magic. i have not the oak or. the met you don't get london with the amount of handicap. when dealing. on authority me as the yani you can not go to the to mr demo wouldn't john i'm a bombshell dad. for failing to tap tap can inject the. blood to them and at the time and call it a walk i'm not did you say that was he was one of those who has done things in the area covered that he fears he heard it in the time and again know that a. funny jok

completely but will nobody know if once the americans pull over to the easy to troops of syria's the aid the assets will march in order to take ain't nobody had in mind nobody gets to kurds we stare humility not to shoot faces people in large numbers is militias of iraq you say they relate to in your area from isis but they have built themselves into seventy something so thousands of women and children plus about eight so may which they have no in jail. in the old this is too many they cannot got them for it though this is a triangle and an unprecedented situation christophe white are joining us from the magazine spiegel as we mentioned from the from the north of syria this afternoon thank you so much it's. now the embattled head of the german football federation reinhard rendell has resigned he's been president of the federation since twenty six team the world's biggest sports federation by membership but brando had been facing growing criticism over payments that he received from a federation subsidiary as well as over critical decisions that he has made weeding the governing body

another round of talks on syria is expected to take place and because that capital of will still fall russia taking and iran believes they have played pivotal roles in the conflict and now want to know what's in it for them they know how their tells us more from beirut. russia is further cementing its foothold in syria government leaders in damascus granting russia access to the mediterranean port of tartus for the next forty nine years it's the latest deal between the two countries as russia strategic and financial rewards in post-war syria. syria's other main ally iran seems to be doing the same after partnering to keep president bashar assad in power the iranians and russians are talking about dividing the spoils of war it's. future. there's a structure but it's our. current regime it's in parts. russia and iran cooperate with turkey iran's foreign minister mohammad said if there's a turkey's capital ankara following a trip to damascus the iranians are trying to mend the relationship between syria and turkey hoping for an increased diplomatic role. while iran of course also is tryi

when you look at syria you've got to a situation such as syria you got to think we've got to collect the evidence we've got to safeguard the evidence because for future prosecutions we never thought the charles taylor would be held accountable we never thought that radovan carriages who has just received life in prison would be held accountable the those who are responsible in syria will be held accountable the i.c.c. doesn't have jurisdiction over syria as i said what we are trying to do now when we follow the beginning of march with the prosecutor which is now being considered is for the crime of force deportation the same as the situation in mind. and our group is hopeful with the support of the trip and the commission of inquiry that the prosecutor will be given sufficient evidence to to investigate and then potentially bring charges but what you've got to understand and i say this having dealt with those near rwanda iraq libya is that we can't expect this to happen overnight it won't happen overnight and the majority of the situation is going to fall on syrians and syrian instit

these children have arrived in a hole in the northeast syria and have been jewed really an extremely difficult time because they were in an area where there was heavy bombardment it was really a conflict taking place of the right sided traumatized psychosocial issues of course with what they have experienced too but also these children are really in an extremely vulnerable situation because the solution must be found to live there and this is where our call today we really want to draw attention to this thousands of children who are actually have a foreign father or a mother who may have been nor is as mean involved with i still looked at these children i really children at five years old and most of them are really minority they're living into an extreme situation or they were asking really for a solution a way forward special attention solution must be. based on the vested interest that i mean nation of these children why does the right thing for them to help them have a better future to get through education to get them to school to get them to some sort of no monthly why this ext

the final battle against syria last month left thousands of people homeless. in the northeast turned into a refugee camp. aid agencies weren't ready for what's being described as a humanitarian emergency in the past four months l. whole camp in northeast syria has gone from hosting ten thousand people to more than seventy thousand the camp was built to house just forty thousand many live in communal shelters they are the wives and children of i still fighters as well as civilians displaced by the fighting against the aren't a group ninety percent are women and children and we have over six hundred cases of documented malnourished children and hospitals in the area are overwhelmed to provide them. very specialized care that malnourished children need so health care is a challenge malnutrition is an increasing concern for us some have died of disease there is a lack of proper medical facilities and there is a need to improve sanitation to reduce the risks to health forty three percent of the cap's population are syrians they can't return home because their villa
