kocho was defenseless against the onslaught of sigh sis. they needed a champion and they got one. but would it be enough. >> the massacre at kocho was horri horrifying. but more horrifying was isis cutting a swath across the middle east. repeated such atrocities wherever it went from iraqi military cadets to cop tick christians. it may have placed the kocho villagers in the path of isis. but there was one who who wasn't going to stand pi and let the world watch. she's a member of the iraqi parliament, representing the land of jonah from the bible. and the area being overrun by isis. many of those being slaughtered

throughout 2014 isis rampaged across iraq with their vision of an islamic state with death and destruction. before december isis controlled a land mass larger than the unit united kingdom. but just as significant, they had captured the attention of the world. they did this through a fairly sophisticated social media campaign as a message to everyone about their intentions and as a recruiting tool. the one part of the campaign that no one could ignore. gruesome videos. they showed such things as british terrorists jihadi john decapitating emergency journalists james foley. >> i'm back and i'm back because of you. >> president obama responded and eight months later it was clear isis was no longer just the jv
2:22 pm
team. >> we will conduct a systemic campaign of air strikes against these terrorists. working with the iraqi government we will expand our efforts beyond protecting our own people and humanitarian missions so that we're hitting isil targets as the forces go on offense. >> the plan was to degrade and destroy isis. but the effort would be limited to air strikes because the president foreswore the deployment of american ground troops. >> meanwhile the yazidi people had been forced to flee to sinjar mountain, about ten miles away from the overrun village of kocho. many of their villages had been blown up by isis after they left or isis still controls them so they have no place to return to. thousands are still on the mountain. fox news sent benjamin hall, journalist and author of the new book "inside isis" to mt. sinjar
2:23 pm
to assess the situation. >> we're driving up mt. sinjar at the moment. it's clear there's been a lot of fighting around here. up ahead is the mountain itself where the jazzdies took their refuge in june and there are still many of them up there. >> translator: there are different tents. some are cold, some okay. in the summer it was 50, warm. now it's down to zero degree sell yus. >> her tent was filled with family and strangers. >> translator: some of them are my relative's some are newcomers that we are welcomed among us. we shared the tent together. >> not all of the yazidi refugees live atop mt. sinjar. those who made their way off the mountain were living in newly constructed trailer parks. most of the yazidi women taken

2:25 pm
occasionally been in touch with her by a cell phone. >> translator: she was taken captive with my wife. he was first taken to tell la far and to iraq can and to the saudi arabian border. >> dathil spends his days desperately hoping for a call or text. but since late november noll. he is only fear the worst. as you walk down the streets you notice each house has the same story of woe. there's a house over here which 18 members have been killed. one over there in which 30 have died and another where 90 of the same family are all dead, leaving just one alive. you see very little hope here and you see very lit you total your brand new car. nobody's hurt,but there will still be pain. it comes when your insurance company says they'll only pay three-quarters of what it takes to replace it. what are you supposed to do, drive three-quarters of a car?

news. giving you the power to prosper. so far we've seen how isis ravaged the yazidis. as in ancient days, it meant death for the men and slavery for the women. we've also seen how this attacks were only one sll part of the devastation that isis has delivered to those in its path. the world wasn't fast enough to save the yazidis from the cruelty and soon the question would become would it be able to back isis at all. and if it were to be done, who would lead? isis has little trouble slashing through northern iraq
2:31 pm
in 2014. but late in the year there was a counter attack. it came from the kurds, the middle eastern ethnic minority who were concentrated in the area. their fighting force, the peshmerga backed by international air striking succeeded in opening up a car door to mt. sinjar where thousands of yazidis were trapped. we were there when the mesh mer ga faced a renewed offensive. at the time the village of kocho was controlled by isis and completely unaccessible. but there was plenty of action around the capital of sinjar city. >> we've heard that isis attacked in places we were in just an hour ago. right on the front line in sinjar city 700 meters from here. sounds like a man has lost a leg an an arm.
2:32 pm
>> translator: the shooting is gun fire that's being exchanged between us and them. i spoke to the general, the commander of the peshmerga infantry. >> translator: the fight is going on. >> he wishes that the fighters were better equipped. >> translator: the weapons we've received have been old weapons, totally not new weapons. what we need is modern weapons ike armored vehicles. >> he worries that his forces are outgunned by isis which has been armed inadvertently by the u.s. >> translator: most of the american weapons that were given to iraqi armies fell into isis hands and they have all modern advanced weaponry like humvees and armored vehicles. >> peshmerga we spoke to were bitter. >> right now isis, they have the weapons.
2:33 pm
they bring some mortar and ammunition. >> meanwhile, others are running toward the battle. >> whether it's incoming or outgoing i couldn't tell you at this time. >> patrick, a 37-year-old american doesn't want us to use his name. he's an adventure seeker who's joined the peshmerga to fight. >> i don't know how many they have. but it's an endless barrage. mortars, they shake the earth, man. >> while i was there the two sides were having a standoff just outside sinjar city. the forces were separated by just 150 feet. patrick served in the u.s. army in iraq as a calvary scout and powelled sniper duty to protect the check points. >> been in a sniper's nest. isis are like rats. they tunnel tlood buildings, you know. it's heavy fighting.
2:34 pm
>> the battle for sinjar is about more than restoring the yazidis to their home, it's also about dealing a powerful blow to the ability of isis to continue its campaign. >> translator: they are in great financial benefits through the oil that they transit via this route. this is one of the main roads that connects mosul to syria which is why they don't want to lose sinjar. >> indeed the peshmerga see themselves fighting a war not just for their own part of iraq but to help rid the world of the scourge of isis. they belief they'll need more support. >> no support. that's shocking isn't it? doesn't make sense. >> when i was there the peshmerga were barely able to hold their own. they're now attacking and we decided to pull out. anyone who thinks isis is being pushed back or on the defensive need only come to the front line like this to realize that in
2:35 pm
fact much more is dmeeded to defeat testimony. and until they get the weapons and support that they desperately need and ask for, it's going to be a long drawn out fight. when i come back, the fight in washington over how best to in washington over how best to at ally bank no branches equals great rates. it's a fact. kind of like mute buttons equal danger. ...that sound good? not being on this phone call sounds good. it's not muted. was that you jason? it was geoffrey! it was jason. it could've been brenda. the has unlimited access is thatto information,tion no matter where they are. the microsoft cloud gives our team the power to instantly deliver critical information to people, whenever they need it. here at accuweather, we get up to 10 billion data requests every day. the cloud allows us to scale up so we can handle that volume. we can help keep people safe; and to us that feels really good.
2:36 pm
2:37 pm
2:38 pm
at ally bank no branches equals great rates. it's a fact. kind of like shopping hungry equals overshopping. barack obama had run as an anti-war can date. he was the one who was going to get us out of iraq. so what does such a white house do when it look like we may need to go back? >> this is a dumb war and a rash war and we shouldn't fight it. >> barack obama ran as an anti-war candidate. once in office many thought he first order of business would be to get america out of iraq. they weren't far off. before his first term was out, the last 500 american troops stationed in iran packed their
2:39 pm
gear and left. >> we're leaving behind a sovereign stable and self reliant iraq. >> some worried however that failing to reach an agreement or stay behind u.s. forces would create a power vacuum. i spoke to the ambassador who works on the president's team dealing with isis. >> critics say that by us not getting that agreement we facilitated the growth of isis. how do you respond to that? >> i do wish that we were able to leaf a residual force to do some counter-terrorism. we had a difficult negotiate with the iraqis. but can tell you we're really no kused on where we are now. >> general michael flynn agrees that we have to move on. >> you know, hindsight is 2020. what we have to do is admit to the mistake and say, okay, now what are we going to do about snit. >> as we've seen, one group that
2:40 pm
filled the vacuum was isis and one group that's paying for that are the yazidis. which brings us back to dakhil. she came to washington, d.c. last december seeking help for her beleaguered people. >> i'm here door by door political, some person, some organization to help us. >> she made the round, an appearance at a congressional hearing. her message, her people needed more than american air strikes. however following the policy of the obama administration, via could get no promises for any troops. >> the yazidis think that there could be more humanitarian aid, more help in fighting isis in their specific area. how do you answer that. >> everybody in this whole region wants more and i wish we
2:41 pm
could do everything we possibly can. but i think in the case to have yazidis, we've done over 2007 air strikes working directly with them with precise excellence. >> the kurds, they say they're outgunned. ment some of them don't have the right armor, some of them don't have helmets. how do you respond to that. >> i talk to the kurds almost every day. when isil launched its attack in in kurk stan in august, we helped immediately. they've taken back almost all of the thert that they lost and we are now going to be supplying the kurds three new peshmerga brigades with sophisticated equipment. >> general flynn wonders why american help has been so little so late? >> the kurds want more air support than we're giving them. we have to rely on these guys and they're doing brave things but they're looking to us to say hey, we still need your help. it's too slow. we got to figure out where is the road block and get thee guys what they need.
2:42 pm
>> we've seen firsthand the suffering of the yazidis. >> it's sad. >> are they the canaries in the cold mine that kind of describe what happens if isis comes to town? >> yeah. and we can't allow another yazidi -- >> you were talking about the policy and obviously it changed, developed, evolved. is it now still degrade and destroyed isil as you call them, over a period of three years? >> well, you know, we have an assessment at this organization of just how strong it is. we do think that within appear idea of two to three years we can significantly degrade the organization. that means it won't be holding territory anymore, won't be a major threat to the u.s., but sit going to take time. >> the united states can't lead from behind because we're just, we're too big. it's not a matter of leading from behind and sort of sitting there and twid ling our thumbs and getting everybody else go off and figure this thing.
2:43 pm
if we say they wer leading, leading us in the right direction. >> one major fear is if the u.s. doesn't do more, iran will happily fill the void and expand its considerable influence in the region. >> the administration isn't helping but also isn't condemning iran for its role against isis, especially in iraq. what's your view of iran and isis? >> part of me says we have to tell iran you get the hell out of iraq. let us try to help the rest of this -- let us try to help iraq and the region stabilize what it is that we need to do. but you have to back off. >> not the u.s. is standing still. as part of the administration's involving strategy, the military is training 25,000 iraqis to face off against isis. but the question remains, will the u.s. ever put troops on the ground in the fight? >> so is it your sense that we're better off encouraging
2:44 pm
other arab nation to do the fighting and we just back them up, to not get drawn in, or you have to engage at some point? >> you to engage at some point. but -- and one of the things that i have stated as an idea is this proposal for an arab-nato like structure. and i was actually surprised but pleasantly surprised that president el sisi a few weeks back talked about the formation of an arab coalition kind of like that. >> and that's why we went to egypt, to talk to this dynamic new leader. when we come back we present an exclusive interview with the man who's been the most outspoken head of state in the arab world, egyptian president abdel fattah el sisi. to many he's the leader who is do you want to know how hard it can be to breathe with copd?

2:47 pm
2:48 pm
in a stunning speech on new year's day 2015 egyptian president abdel fattah el sisi denounced killing and destruction done in the name of islam and the clerics who support it. he believed it was time for a revolution in his revolution. those are brave words from a reader in a region where radicals abound. i spoke to el sisi to find out what steps he believes are needed for his country, for muslims and the world. >> translator: a religious revolution and it's not a revolution on religion. on the contrary. it's a revolution to reinstate
2:49 pm
the right meaning of religion. we're fighting all of the misconceptions that create extreme etiologies which in turn created terrorism that is threatening the whole world. >> that is a bold stand. what has been the reaction that you received since you gave that speech and you continue to talk about this revolution inside islam? >> translator: the muslims have to stand up and correct this misinterpretation of what is happening. as for the action of the extremists, of course they will not be happy. and for them i am disagreeable person. but i am doing this for humanity and for history and religion and god will hold me accountable for all i'm doing. >> in recent days you've met with the king of jordan, the king of saudi arabia about possibly forming this joint arab
2:50 pm
force, this coalition, this alliance to counter isis. what is at stake for your country and the region? >> translator: we have to admit that terrorism is now a major threat not only to egypt and the immediate region, but sit a threat to the stability and security of the whole world. >> what do you need to make that arab force, that united arab coalition a reality. and do you think it would be more effective in this fight than a u.s.-led coalition? >> translator: there is no conflict between the aim of this arab coalition and the international role led by the united states. as a matter of fact, our role here will be part and parcel of the whole international coalition in order to counter this danger. >> i sense, though, the u.s. stopped supplying military
2:51 pm
weapons and equipment after june 2013. they stopped for a while. and then it slowed. >> '13 june to 2015 is a long time. more than a year and a half now. we thought that they would take time to really understand what really happened in egypt. they need really to understand it was and has been the will of the egyptians far change. >> you wrote your dissertation on democracy in the muslim world when you were at the army war college in the u.s. is islam compatible with democracy? >> >>. >> translator: a very good question. allow me to say to you real islam gives complete freedom to the human being to choose not only the person who is going to
2:52 pm
the country but the freedom to believe in god in the first place or not to believe in god in the first play. i'm saying to the people who who believe, they have to improse mayor religious perspective on ores by force. i'm saying that god endowed man with the gift of free choice. that means an absolute freedom and absolute liberty of choice. god created us different from each other. if god wanted us the same people looking alike and having the same religion and the same language, he would have created us alike. >> how do you and how do america's other arab allies view u.s. leadership in the region now? differe >> difficult questions. >> that goz the english response. >> with power comes the responsibility. and the united states has a lot
2:53 pm
of might and that's why its responsibility is huge toward the whole world, toward human kind. >> we've heard people say in the middle east and north africa that america's friends feel that they no longer can depend on the u.s. is that fair? >> translator: feels a lot of threats. and the public wants to see a big response from capable countries, countries that are able to provide assistance. for example, the suspending of equipment and arms was a negative indication to the public opinion that the united states is not stonding by the egyptians while they are in the midst of a ferocious war against
2:54 pm
terrorism. >> we've seen iran expand its power. now they're fighting on the ground in iraq against isis. are you concerned about iran taking that active role or do you welcome it? >> translator: the arab countries are supposed to defend their interest. we used to have this before the arab counties were capable of doing that and we're capable of restoring our capabilities one more time and do it together. >> for now the world waits to see what america will do next. but isis won't wait. and if america doesn't act boldly, it's likely others in the world will step in as well. as a reminder of what this is all about, a postscript. earlier this year dakhil who had lost his family was reunited with his wife and three of his children. >> translator: my wife was taken
2:55 pm
