11:26 pm
go from this intimate experience of combat with their brothers to just being an individual in the sort of alienating society and it's a very hard readjustment for them. what brendan said is what needs to heal is not the vet so much but we, our nation. >> what do you think does help soldiers coming back from war? >> i think above everything else if soldiers come back and they feel that the citizenry is sort of owning the war morally politically, that helps enormously. but what they get are these conversations where they can tell the person is talking to them about -- as if it was the vet's war, the soldier's war and it's really not. >> and if we talk to the soldiers you spent time with would they say the war is worth it? >> the scol engineers don't evaluate the -- the soldiers
11:27 pm
don't evaluate the war that way. >> what do you think they take away from koringal? >> i made the film so hopefully soldiers could understand their experience a little bit more deeply with a little bit more complexity. i asked what does word courage mean to you? why do you miss the war? i interviewed them right after deployment, what do you miss about the war? i hope what soldiers get from it is the insight into very confusing combat. >> koringal will be available in limited cities later this month. 20 years since the infamous slow speed chase across los angeles. >> white ford bronco. use caution. >> concluded one of the most

11:31 pm
from islamic groups. sunni tribes men are joining with the i.s.i.l. fighters. adding pressure on iraq's struggling government. president obama says iraq needs help but said today he will not deploy any americans. >> now iraq needs additional support to break the momentum of extremist groups, and bolster the security of forces. we will not be sending troops back into combat in iraq but i have asked my national security team prepare a range of other options that could help prepare iraq security forces and i'll be reviewing those in the days ahead. >> president obama says it's ultimately up to the iraqis to defend themselves. president maliki visited the areas, so how did the sunni
11:32 pm
fighters gain so much land so fast? many of the iraq's soldiers ran away. they didn't have the weapons or resources to have a chance to win. hoda amin spoke to some of the soldiers. >> we met them inside the makeshift camp. they are soldiers from the iraqi army when they fled mosul, when it was being attacked by islamic state of iraq and the levant, or i.s.i.l. >> we fought for five days and then we ran out of ammunition. we asked for support but it didn't come. we asked for ammunition. nothing arrived. how could we continue fighting? the big commanders from baghdad ran away and they left us with nothing. >> not all of them, but they
11:33 pm
come from all over iraq including the southern shia heart land. they say they still don't understand what happened. >> this is a video that was shot in mosul. as the i.s.i.l. fighters were approaching the city. they're singing, actually defiantly, let them come, we are ready to fight. it was meant to boost morale ahead of a fierce battle. aired on national television. watching it now increases their sense of betrayal and loss. i.s.i.l. called on quote the police, soldiers and other infidel institutions. you can repent. we have opened special places that will allow you to repent. the men here say this equates to a death sentence. but perhaps most of their anger is directed at the iraqi prime minister.
11:34 pm
>> they took a lot of equipment. we were based at the mosul hold. they took tanks, armored vehicles. it's a catastrophe. >> unable to reach their homes and being blamed for what iraqis could fear could be the collapse of the entire country. al jazeera, in northern iraq. there is a balance between i.s.i.l.'s and the military. from strictly numbers the military looks bigger. john terret has the numbers. >> suggests it has more than 7,000 combat fighters it can call upon. compare that to the iraqi army which has 250,000 troops available. the nongovernment kurdish
11:35 pm
peshmerga, can muster 140 to 240,000 militia. even allowing for iraqi are desertions, remember that said, remember i.s.i.l. was outmanned 40 to 1, in the northern city of mosul and they could still take city. we're going to have to wait and see. now today president obama ruled out any more where ask troops in iraq but he might gift to them more fire power. $15 billion of training and other services, plus these small scout the represents which have been the back -- scouts helicopters which have been the
11:36 pm
backbone of the military. add to that a shipment of boeing's scan eagle, low cost but long range surveillance drones, scheduled to be delivered to iraq later this summer, and speeding up a shipment of apache helicopters, and middle of a 30-day review of another billion dollar order of arms for iraq that would include these hum vee vehicles. better disciplined iraqi forces would also be required. so for now i.s.i.l. appears to have the upper hand. but it is a position david it may find tough to defend over time. david. >> john terret, thank you very much. a u.s. federal grand jury has are dieted a social media, brian

11:40 pm
of a doubt. now juries wand dna evidence, videotapes of a crime. all sorts of things they didn't know about much less demand before cameras were put in courtrooms. there is a positive legacy to cameras in the courtrooms, that the public understands the process a lot better than it did ever before. people don't believe trials go the way trials go on perry mason. >> i don't want to take anything away from what these lawyers did or the judge did, my colleagues, the analyst but it's not a real trial. and so that's undermining the system when we think this is representative of our justice system. i have a blog about this on tumblr because i feel so strongly about it. >> simpson later lost a multimillion dollar wrongful death lawsuit. and he's been in prison for

♪ >> so your latest album is called white women. sounds like it's a potentially controversial title. why, why did you name it that? >> for that reason. but again, things -- our music works on different levels. and so the title white women is actually the reference to the photographer helmit newton, his first book was called white woman. he himself was no stranger to controversy. when we read about the title, i called p and said, that would make a great david beauie titlee title or a van halen album. why don't we use it. he says are you serious?
