people confront various phobias. so presumably it's reversible. how do you go about to intervene here what isis are doing with these children, how easy would it be to reverse some of this? >> i wouldn't say easy, but i am a big believer in anything that can be learned can be unlearned. it may take time and resources, but our history does not necessarily determine everything. it has a big role in it, but iffing? can be learned it can be unlearned. >> when we look to those young boys watching these movies on movie night, it is so chilling. how long would they have to be subjected to this for that brainwashing to succeed? >> you think about it, in our

country, there are a lot of boys playing violent video games. here it sounds like they want to take what they're seeing and turn it into action. it would depend on a lot of factors, the community, the pressure. i don't know how much time it takes but it's something you have to do consistently. >> then, of course, we were looking at those graduations. we were looking at those young boys, market sked. they're moving on to the next level of murders. goodness knows what their lives are going to be like in the next few years. >> as a child, we're designed, we have to trust the people taking care of us. it's what our survival counts on. it's painful to watch, those. chilling, chilling, chilling. >> thank you so much for coming in and talking to us about this. >> thank you. and coming up, a right-to-die advocate in the u.s. takes her life after
