u.s. troops were in syria and we have won against isis we've beaten them and we've beat now badly we've taken back the land and now it's time for our troops to come back home and then leave them there but according to the u.s. government the islamic state of iraq and the levant is not actually defeated a point stressed by the president's own state department just last week i think it's fair to say americans will remain on the ground after the physical to feed a caliphate until we have the pieces in place to ensure that that defeatism during the move comes after a phone call between president trump and president urged one of turkey he's made clear he wants to target the kurds who have fought beside the u.s. and that is more difficult to do if u.s. troops are in his way just a few months ago the president himself is fully heralded as a sacrifice the kurds have made and we're trying to get along very well we do get along great with the kurds we're trying to help them a lot so they fought with us they died with us they died we lost. tens of thousands of kurds died fighting isis now many worry what will happen to the kurds what this

message sends is we don't stick with people our friends without the kurds in the syrian democratic forces we couldn't have beaten isis we couldn't have taken back and rock of course we were not willing to commit all of those troops that were necessary others say that should be a concern for the u.s. first time in my lifetime we have a prayer a president with the courage to declare victory and bring the troops home this came as a surprise for many on capitol hill some senators calling this a big mistake in this decision is a withdrawal of all of our forces in syria and they were dramatically listen this isn't a bomb of like move it's now that the u.s. has withdrawn or is going to withdraw from syria we have left basically turn the country over to russia and to an even greater extent iran the administration and the pentagon both released statement saying the fight against iso isn't over that the u.s. is simply transitioning to the next phase of the campaign they didn't say what that

in the history of conflicts between east and west. the mightiest battle between christianity and islam. a holy war in the name of religion. for the first time. the story of the crusades. from an arab perspective. up. up. up. the crusades are the epitome of holy war.

yet the roots of this two hundred year conflict laid out in religion but in the economic condition of medieval europe the latest little sleep. shae that look at that molests you know. the in the less no. doubt unless that's a new cliche. while the pope was trying to hang on to his historical forward to over the people of your. all at once you set off and then all elements in balboa like elevators i get. meanwhile in the east internal divisions had to weaken the previously all powerful islamic empire. so i mean they still apply but i too upset i'd than them. but i still accept the philosophy for a minute to tell plekhanov i'm just and that's all with that has to shout it's a c.s.

you assume it. was. in the first episode of the series the story of the show but then go from the muslim world with the arrival of the crusades. to. the mediterranean basin the eleventh century of the common era. the peak of the middle ages. after centuries of european domination largely through the armies of imperial rome . the region at full and

firmly under muslim control. and was mean going to it will be all but me spending a lot of money in a shock to bottom with the loss of chuck. it that it will being all that he let in the shed it because he can then mean that let it hang in there but this. would and they would know all. the time how to fight it off. a coffee has healed both. oma the byzantine at home in the same shop and of his oaks well mostly mean. that it will be a shot of bush later in the horse oculus you know sort of the medicines immediately

shot a can show where he shot a can. and was done as you know. as the muslim east lived in prosperity. the west europe had declined into poverty and comfort. obama. illness leanne's honest lush. i want on that little bit off he hasn't a canal and smoke little. would do it to obama let me up on a wooden yeah he had a lot of those times in the movie that he led up to so what an old. world. the medieval western society was a feudal society which meant that you had

a military our stock recy in charge of. a large amount of people that had no no land possessions. what had been me a municipal. and when. our auxerre i hear with this out this infamy i'm in so can. you look after and. train and i'm going on. other than and yet. there's a whole most of it. says oh my new posts who said we love you cooked a lot of us who won't trade you. a pound equal distant existence believe it.

when we had our sort of the last. emira. well not better than ours kind of our of the. key leyland. and well at this moment cool willow and. good oh my baby do not cry. and die that the men they leave now. but the lemon has. a tight. despite the poverty and suffering of the common people. feudal lords were living

a very different life. and many a. bomb squatting in the foresail. for saying living in the. mean had the say you know man had the fossil bar he. can get that will let its paw. hurried home. where they followed san. can or. the fish on the leave because i'm telling you our million will see the. cayenne at the something it's by jennifer however the aim of the. weed at the

illinois. of how to behave fishtailing if you. want to pull bubba wait until you. get only packs a day out. in the national. not park and had a big. party didn't want for santa. fe mushroom. either you see. that the state bell and. let it and look. again at the who. will has. one that we have enough face again at the folks as a. starter. on

the other side of the mediterranean. lay the prosperity and cultural riches of the muslim world. but this glittering facade had deep political and religious discord. eleven is staggering if you did it but hala club the shuttle. a leg of that i did add though that i better see if you know that you know i did that well you all see it. and now let's you have all that said that. from the mid ninth century bassett calif it had gradually fallen under the control of different dentistry s. . the caliphs meant to be the universal leaders of a slim were no more than puppets in the hands of ministers army come on those and

even servants. that i meet in the house and collapse come at me it's all to me one feel that and then the how some of them could have. one puzzle. in them and i looked at me and i got a shell in the how was the event let me share it and. so logical the lotsa luck with. them so much. as if the whole of. the city jukes began expanding their empire in all directions. the most significant and serious expansion was in asia minor. against the christian by sun time and part. and after the victory of the battle of man's occurred in ten seventy one. the city

jukes moved closer to constantinople the great capital of the buys on time and. that's an excellent coffee etc one of the good news for about. that mean a lot of the old people will back twelve. million dollars seven. a shift along. the time. he says he says ok i'm a. back up he had to bow if you haven't let some. fickle it you know how you cut this whole fuck up all you can physically want doesn't have a shock you still. say that must mean it must have been an enormous.

power. and tend to think no one can it die and if futile freedoms means you sure a measure to better even if you do are not a. western christians at the time didn't see islam as a separate religion. they tended to see islam as a christian heresy they saw that as a diversion from christianity now they're completely wrong about that. ok little children will still modify and the polish shaab. if you will have their free will then. well after a. few was as i'm with them again if you have a douche a cease with more of police and if you added me then we'll assist them so i'm either grown up to caylee's death was to demand

a man of possible to move can meet with. them dead to react hope that he so for the boy. pope gregory died then turn eighty five. before turning his project into reality. however three years later an even more ambitious pope took the post urban the second or had woman. and also lost another one possibility i mean because didn't mr haircuts are ok. the had he been messy hey i. you've been doing to sue false the dog we don't insult it exactly as a part of a pullback on the don't unplug the bees also even concede there was the metal due

to likely county you could see deficit on his first sort of the walk. in november ten monte five in clapham or france. pope urban the catholic church counts. but what started as a religious gathering. took a dramatic turn on its tenth day. on that day the pope would make a speech. a speech that would be the starting point of two centuries of bloodshed. the coup saints.

show. juggles amy you do the dishes specific to wonder that they were sent to sit to jail which gives you thieves but one. moment of hope up here again suffering. like no one say i'm a sucker i'm going through i don't know how what kind of a fucking a mother who was a how when i met him more often than not people. ok fine now come to say that my seahawk coffee and the coffee i was in a while and i lay him a little shiela coffee have. a still and i'll believe in the clouds. over my country had to almost and never found solace as i had in the infeed yes and governor. i will the big guns yeah there was any bag of chicken with most of yeah well i got going to school since he had zero again holy war of how to do most of

this you don't go but you see me feel you for all wallowed you will see. did you get worried about. what herb and done as he was that he addresses directly the spirit trying. so if you go on a crusade your sins the penalties that otherwise you would have performed for the sins of remission. he. has really dinny who i mean assess the odds of you sure opossums on the. law who and well i can and which was the year in one go but when i am now opposite i know that i want to be in the hands had. there been a dem or norman and. willingness to kill you the woman as she gazed

at him gazing with a. fee on all the shark philistine and let it to feel the will of anyone who could have been called this. the force about. to do yeah but those rules about the boat if a little bit no tail and all because of all. the lot of the bow and any little bog and. you're really behind the board. how moment that will is. so there are really only mosul being the so we. let that stand then leave the room and hams. draw up a schedule for the first campaign. with winter approaching. he declared that the campaign should set out the following summer of ten monte six.

but there were many who would ignore this holy c'mon. they found a leader prepared to guide them immediately to the east. an old monk called peter the hermit. in this alicia food. when in one of the elect i don't know and i believe that he lay it in the he figures and. saw how to feel listen. to look at me with they know who are they to him ah he. will in again any b. and this will lead discussion them in the source of the meaning said that's there's a lot o. unless the whole fucking. elite. met

at the borders and then. sure there's a. lot of money men do you own a lovely about them with a serene in it for scent. and. there's a kill bill at the top of you can a male good and also prevent hello book of leather be a dowry having a shabby you have a shabby id ha said it in all big. that's a whole lot. i shouted at him. in the middle east. as he was having a little. few minutes have one. let you know. this is a very indisciplined group not many nobles taking part in it poor leadership

they're desperate for money they're poorly funded they are to kill and get money wherever they can one of the criticisms of people hermits armies and indeed other crusader on this is that they attack fellow christians coreligionists they often did this for practical reasons. all routes they are to seize whatever they can get to survive so they will take property crops prisoners if they can anything to keep themselves going and if that happens to be christians or it happens to be jews then that is just for a second so the ways they are simply trying to keep themselves go.

again allude to the start of what is going there is one. they learn. a lot of them one. after over four months of exhausting marching across europe. the peoples crusade to reach the buys on time capital constantinople. the crossing point to asia the holy land. and most of the world and then over again tol'able all but leg death. well. and. then he. looks so. we.

have a that we had. a lot of even more. the crusaders who cross the bosphorus now found themselves marching in territory controlled by hostile forces principally the muslims so jukes. a few weeks after they landed in asia minor. they fell into a well set sent. in a short path of the fast majority of the twenty thousand crusaders were slow to. you name me gen at the if you had. better luck this will have. been

a didn't see me. but while the on discipline drabble of the people's crusade were meeting a tragic end in asia minor. another wave of the holy war. the nobility of europe was gathering stronger larger and more organized on. armies that would go down in history as the first crusade. which is saying has now been held in pretrial detention for two years what is his crime. why hasn't he been tried yet why hasn't justice been applied in this case

is he detained because he's a journalist as journalism become a crime have moles become a tool to silence weiss's of truth we will continue i news coverage with professionalism and impartiality our work will remain credible and accurate but journalism is not a crime incarcerating journalists is not acceptable we demand the immediate release of our colleague mahmoud to say and all journalists detained in a gyptian jails free mahmoud's and all his colleagues we stand for press freedom. adored by millions the stones most famous cricket team arrived just prime minister on a blaze of national celebration. now one hundred days into his leadership people ask

whether delivering on promises will be easy in practice as it was in pain right now the nation is not feeling confident right now people are disappointed with the bombing in minus one hundred days on al-jazeera. we should all be in doha with your headlines from al-jazeera the u.s. president donald trump has ordered a full withdrawal of american forces from syria and declared victory against eisel in the country the decision surprised his foreign allies and angered some members of his republican party that radha of an estimated two thousand troops is expected within sixty to one hundred days. we have won against isis we've beaten them and we've beaten him badly so our boys our young women our men they're all coming back and they're coming back now we want and that's the way we want it and

that's the way they want it. an election official in the democratic republic of congo says sunday's polls might be delayed because of technical difficulties. the police fired tear gas on opposition supporters in the capital kinshasa after political rallies were banned over security worries there are reports of more explosions on the second day of the un brokered ceasefire in yemen's port city of data. backed government forces and who has blamed each other for violations on the first day of the truce on tuesday who data is critical for the supply of food and humanitarian aid for millions of yemenis on the brink of starvation and yemeni woman's on her way to the u.s. to see her dying sama for a year long legal battle she's been prevented from seeing asylum because of a travel ban on people from yemen and four of them mainly muslim countries as well as north korea and venezuela the two year old is an american citizen with a rare brain disorder the u.s. granted her a visa after

europe the alter of ten ninety six. the book gone but was a big deal a year earlier and the pope urban the second a declare the war to reconquer the holy land from the muslims. the crusades. the first christians to head towards jerusalem and jews yes stick but undisciplined had been crushed by the most incent dupes in asia minor.

but now much stronger larger and more organized forces were gathering and advancing eastwards. these armies forming the first crusade were commanded by figures of european nobility. raymond the fourth count of to lose godfrey oh. and his brother baldwin. hugh the first count affect monday. and brother of king philip the first of frogs. robert duke of norm. brother of king william the second of england. and boy the norman prince of

toronto. a lot of male nobility that had a function on the war of war lords and they would see to crusade as a way to carve out a little kingdom in the east perhaps on their own or also to find glory in warfare. that. obama is a at this. time so i took. the sins of the. by the end of time ninety six the european armies started arriving at the time capital constantinople. but the emperor.

scum the norse wouldn't allow them to cross into asia minor before spring the following year. they are in the biz and do you. want. to sic. zante. and. nominate dead and you a lot of the lead to say as to how the have. bought the. law. would be i did a lot of collecting. some of the home the food of all the.

true to the oath they have sworn to the emperor of. the city of my c.e.o. was returned to the buys on time. and as the crusaders continued their successful march in asia minor. their holy task of taking jerusalem was set aside. baldwin of bologna decided to abandon the army setting southwards. and at the invitation of its armenian christian ruler marched east to add their son. boulder in the first as one of the leaders of the first crusade and amongst the many contingents he decides to move to wards it desa this is

a strategically important place he's also one of the few crusade leaders who wants to set up his own land that so he's looking to establish a territory that he can govern for himself. had given that you know and would believe in the whole hate that would be bad. no why all this while attila when come started she was stuck in a log it was. emmett so often. to la well michel it feel how would. it mottola. when you could only be at the moment that says have. a site that. an allure d.m.

month down that's all you need while the other side of the. company doesn't know. what. a word even a word he said mysie well as that. vaunted the phone did you know for me being there and you have people who are in your. t.t.c. city do things off to do glass or tick to fast or to walk the dog an easy to society that play depends he put it in the pretty didn't you do shut door dissing you'll be resistant keep going to see don't insist that the plate i gave. a pull so that don't be fairly clear the people at the click let up.

while baldwin was heading towards her vessel. the main army marched on. reaching the walls of until. the city nicknamed the cradle of christianity. as the term christina first originated. but taking unto you would prove a hard task for the christians now laying siege to the city. minute undocking. mahasen you didn't let me up when a session released mark asked us to have.

done a lot of bought. a deal that. amir essential to yes yes but it disturbed me. a little and. well. i'm an i know a few. a member of syndicate you have a you know. you can know not what. those images are so made a little it was really good. and bad that it did in. a christian who had previously converted to islam. and the commander of one of the cities guard towers was bribed to help the crusaders.

feels it doesn't know when the remaining. now i had is more than a year was in a long ad of wear and has. more than one to the salon alice in dominican belt and still her home and it was written in. illinois with all of the last of as. we've been going to his plans even while it after what he meant in let you know in the midst of the old love has been enough so. the magnificent us a lost soul can if you would again. oh were there logs of to hell if you had helped him let us was in medina and as a socket has

it appears as if the crusaders were almost defeated they spent a couple of years getting to this place away effort all that their loss of life. and really they're so close to defeated it pretty well needs a miracle for them to survive and that's pretty well what they got. they got to deal with and then said their mess yeah so all of the men there were dead in that house. in the gumball now would different mechanism for any. big dig in the end they find this locks and this is something that inspires the

troops god has given them a sign that if they persevered they will succeed. the fact they've actually seen another one in constantinople as they went through seems to be completely forgotten it was a morale boost. meanwhile outside the walls of antioch. the surrounding muslim army was disintegrating. some of the commanders fell out with the arrogant. and decided to withdraw their troops. an opportunity seized on by the crusaders.

home for you was that. won't. go well then the whole can of what i knew that i was home but i'm lame you matey along with the fellows will either you can. impossible lack of them. will just. be happy. that i can feel. so let me. know and of clean up someone yeah i mean and well it leaves him but i'm told him his auntie them in the midst of your you know how in the torah bills on the way in a matter of a will be early and for. the crusaders spent the rest of ten ninety eight in the captured city arguing over who should be the ruler of the second crusader settlement in the east. the principality

of until. the dispute was finally settled in favor of boy more of toronto. the rest of the armies set off south towards their main goal jerusalem. but this time their march along the levantine coast met no resistance. a funny beyond the whole i want to be a human side not a pit. full mavica no i mean. one that has a lot of fun. in it and i love. dead but not many will die a deadly disease in the disease. blog

a meal deity that is judas and. who did it maybe that could be a female lead stand kind of a long look lemme guess i mean some of the lace were awful but i so upset i didn't know what i saw except the philosophy from neuchatel. place walks off on election on. and that's all we've had hasn't the shot of the sea is us who came. in june to ninety nine. and after three years of a long march bloody battles. plagues and famines. the crusaders finally reach jerusalem.

assault on the united. why matter how are you norman a loss it's been through see when on the post and venia would to show both you have been got off a lot of the. going with a city bus but at the overall one with a city bus so cool to see how i lay at the shore been known. by the hold of the room not all of us what are you where ya feeling a bit of walk away at the us i walk the walk i do and you know that and you know i started saw it with a friend over it i. got a lot of good going. has a hidden. don't get on to think of it i've done few so-called aswat of course. but marching in the name of religion failed to bring down the walls. so the crusaders fell back on the usual method. for five weeks

they laid siege to the holy city. demanding that can i say at the scene and not fall to mean can open still really have a seal. rocks a leisure. time. and a very good sort of show. in with almost all the media forethought and reduce the limits of their goodness allowed within eight. deaths i will said he would and i did britain's. can and then. better will be.

younger than you. that's and it's. to show that the man is she as if. it was very difficult for crusaders to distinguish between local muslim population local jewish population and local christian population because they all looked the same the old looked like arabs. just for the thought that a lot of it and enough for nothing will behold be the loop and the limousine has come out of hotshot i am where. norman is said ian money the. bishop let him lead you said. i shot the sun even. we're not. out of reach. that's cause. us one on that i want. one the food kind of the whole to get up in

a dinner. in a while look at how they got a deal and then that will fly and i've been another this number was a love you know almost you know you know the copy. that. that. when the obvious of the first crusade on the break into jerusalem in july tend not to you know when . they release the pent up tensions of three years on the march having finally achieved a spiritual go. so really it's a situation where the crusaders wish to purify the city and take it for themselves and those defenders that survive all they've driven out of the city. in america they will slay me i will miss the boat to suffer low would must give

them up some point i love that it did miss will it that me and. i'll measure the song still blow in the new hooligan. hole that's in the laws of. course because. when i listen to full chunks to you. bad mouth that can do a moment of good now you need to do much and even get me going in medina i mean even the. doc to demand of you bell who took office for the item as backings with a camera. and i got some of some to be able to have many bits of this wish that they had. i'm on your fourth at home unless you have a lot of it or like you now can i calm a little mostly mean

a lot of. the to him what that utterly him fema me. with the capture of jerusalem. the first crusade at the cheve its greatest victory. but this initial success would not last. it was to be merely a dramatic opening scene in a far longer struggle. and does the muslim revival began. sol the ground was laid for another two centuries. of the crusades.

and most hands initial response had been inadequate but now it was time for a viable buckle it was the muslims now moved from merely reacting to taking action putting the western crusaders on the defensive with hindsight this is seen as a breakthrough as a revival of the joke in the muslim near east the crusades an arab perspective at the so to revive at this time on a. hello
