overthrown tyrant american the. last american troops chose that particular statue of saddam hussein because it was right across the palestine hotel there were hundreds of state use in baghdad but that they chose it because they wanted it to be thousand miles it was not like i'm paris at the end of world war two my see you know when the parishioners who are out in the streets and enthusiast agree welcome into liberation forces the streets of baghdad were empty they use they were only in that square there was a mishap lessa. journalists who criticize the bush administration war plans got into trouble and some of them even lost their jobs in vietnam had resisted criticism kept the job gulf war one had resisted criticism and kept the job by gulf war true criticism i'm gone the recipe for military press briefings that was established during the gulf war in one thousand nine hundred one was also used in
11:33 pm
the two thousand and three war the main difference was that this time hollywood type sets were built and millions of dollars were spent on the image making. that can take movies write stories something like forty two thousand. public affairs officer working for the pentagon they don't need the job was to be more. but remains will it's impossible no matter how hard they try to hide it it's true friends.
11:34 pm
it's inherently dramatic we love the visuals and it always gets us viewers but combat is the smallest part of any war it's the smallest feature yet we define war by the guns and tanks and yet collateral damage. the destruction of civil life is the longest lasting and the largest portion of every war but as you know i cover what i'm not scared we've been living in denial when you are that scared but you do it we came to cover a lot of the outside of the story we were the only witness to what was going on but of. you know when i went to baghdad in march of two thousand and three you know i was determined not to treat war as a spectacle but rather treated as a backdrop to a very human story that in the story of suffering a story of isolation the sort of agony of long. and time again i saw the stories and the people that i met in baghdad in those that. this is an up or you know war
11:35 pm
you see the best and worst of human being and i consider myself lucky being able to see all the most things happening before my eyes the things that i can photograph exists so i am able to show others all those people see blissful ones what reality is like down there these used to be normal people. up because the war they have turned into monsters. even today in iraq people who leave their homes to get work don't really know if they will return safely. their lives are threatened any time anywhere by the suicide attacks of al qaeda or other terrorist groups.
11:36 pm
cohen. but even for those who survive life is not the same anymore. in iraq we die a hundred times every day we die in various circumstances in the strait gatherings but in crowded places when explosions go off when blind attacks take place mostly by religious groups our profession faces constant danger and death every where death is more than
11:37 pm
a possibility in this job. since april two thousand and three more than three hundred people working for the media have been killed in iraq most of them where iraqi victims of executions obama attacks from al qaeda and other terrorist groups in minutes but the journalism all over the world is considered the king of the profession. in iraq it's called a disastrous profession or a deadly profession. because wherever journalist goes death is always lurking within. the us it is an obvious one will it be a one shot on if you're. a democrat or you but. i'm
11:38 pm
not sure. what. i do. for you recchi journalists reporting and surviving on dramatically connected. the shocking thing is that i've seen that the person who. can make this explosion or his as a pleasure was in my jacket and then afterward i have notes that i've been injured in my hand but. i was worried for my assistant because his brother also killed and. in those days by some killers you know
11:39 pm
the sad thing in this point that my cameraman. was safe in this accident he got killed after six months in his place in his home. many iraqi journalists lost their lives because their killers did not agree with their views and as a tragic result sometimes in the streets of baghdad coffins passed each other by. independent journalism faces both friendly fire and the blind fanaticism of terrorists and journalist giuliana sgrena victim of abduction herself returns to iraq after four and a half years. or more to death follows us no matter where we are no matter which side we convert to make you look to most of this absolute blind to violence religious hatred in fanaticism that was my case when i was an abduction victim by a group of fanatics. i survived but many of my colleagues were not that lucky.
11:40 pm
and so by danny was one of them. fifty six year old italian journalist in zabadani was traveling with the italian red cross convoy towards my job carrying provisions for the wounded. here i just saw for our concern is to deliver medicine is and water to the wounded of the city and of course to be able to come back safe if for nothing and i thank you and i send my regards to all italian also for you to get me and i know now talk on its wild beast that meds of a convoy his car with him and his driver was in the middle of the convoy. the last one on their way back from najaf a mine exploded causing his car to turn over but i. don't i was abducted on the spot by an extreme insurgent group an al qaeda branch called islamic iraqi army analysts in the spirit of solidarity he honored with his
11:41 pm
thoughts and actions in that spirit we ask of you having to let us help him again and i became of the foot there lady of the tide of evil. vaudeville daddy had that as a bit of peace from a whole family. non-optimal did then we didn't have time to organize any demonstrations if i did it in many respects are never going to would all of course we have the support of citizens organizations and political parties and yankees that would see order so to god we have no time to act because they killed him after twenty four hours. she's. gone he was unlucky in many ways mainly because bear was gone his government had no experience in matters of negotiations and instead of trying to buy more time immediately rejected the ultimatum secondly because the abduction which happened in august
11:42 pm
a holiday month in italy when nothing really functions and also because his abductors wanted more than anything else blood on their hands. six months after enzo baldoni is deaf giuliana sgrena is in baghdad university she is there to interview refugees from fallujah who had found shelter in the mosque of the university thanks for holding back on terrorists and abducted. when i was kidnapped the first thing is to realize i'll get not being you because from this a you can decide if i is out there they need to demo their leaders so from that it will depend on your child to be free or not to be. true immediately contacted diplomatic sources and journalists to organize press conferences addressing merely journalists and use agencies from the arabic world into the trunk appear if we want
11:43 pm
to make them realize that giuliana was just a journalist and not a secret agent as some people might have thought that it. they had no no what i couldn't. know what die with was. because. they they kept also my my watch a de beginning just because i didn't they had their eye toward all what i meant was and then they said they need daddy as a proof of my life. and. so i was. waiting for the day but i had just gotten to know what it was. i went to bed but of course i couldn't sleep at all and just they were thinking out
11:44 pm
they would kill me they would kill me cutting my throat and i will if i open that they really am a woman and they really are the tools and not that way thank you out the window you are going to take me out of here nobody must come to iraq because all foreigners all italians are treated here like an impasse.
11:45 pm
italians shocked by screeners adventure and hit the streets demanding her liberation. after a month of secret negotiations the italian government comes to an agreement with the british. nicola calipari a top executive of you telling an army secret service takes over the mission. you'll recall doing i remember he was a regular nice man doesn't look like rambo or some. character. because there was a man who knew his job and he was good at it before charlie good things about him when he took over our case. but he kept telling me look i can't guarantee anything
11:46 pm
. i'm convinced that all three hearts we're following is the right one. partially i mean they're going to get it all over. the first time. but he was in my kidnappers left me and. they came to pick me up and first of all i heard the voice of the body and it dawned on me i have nicola calipari i am friend of. the war they now it's all finished it brought me to another cat and i was sitting in it was sitting beside me because you told i was to be close to you also did you feel you will feel secure you would feel the way in. the car of the italian secret service driven by on the bunny with . passengers in the back seat heads for the airport meanwhile in rome ben was gone he invites under secretary johnny letter head of the italian secret service. and
11:47 pm
juliana's partner peer to his office. the nickel a polaroid comes out of the woman order to called baghdad again to make it possible for me to speak to juliana on the phone book with him prima. spoken with them earlier and almost immediately comes back in shock shouting they are shooting at her. seven hundred fifty meters from the baghdad airport entrance the italian mission comes across an american patrol who opens fire against them the italian car is hit by. fifty seven bullets. body lies heavy on me i managed to move him a little and to hear his last breath his debt no no. the man who set me free is debt. and he died in order to protect me it was like my freedom and while it was about to begin. it's a terrible feeling sad just to feel
11:48 pm
a man dying on the. it is like a part of yourself is dying a fact after all these tremendous gunfire i cannot understand whether i'm still alive and i think i'm dead or if i'm dad and i think i'm still alive you are such a see i do i when they told me about the incident i thought it was a bomb you opened up on. your principle my mind went to the iraqis saw only after i heard what exactly had happened i mean i realized that the americans had shot at the car of course i was confused i don't know but out of me got any honor let me a bit about it i want him to understand how was it possible. to be hit by americans but out.
11:49 pm
with his last. body gave meaning to values it's become more and more rare in our day self-sacrifice and self-denial. although the report showed clearly that the bullets from the american patrol were not fired as a warning the case never reached courts as the american command has a legal jurisdiction in the area governor rick and some are eager to close the case . that it was an accident but when she learned what a lot of julie reason that the case never went to court was strictly personal drug it was said from the italian side that the court had examined the case and also the
11:50 pm
supreme court that the americans had exclusive jurisdiction in that area trial would have helped me but the high court's decision we didn't give us a chance to get an answer for our case in the court rooms but look at have a trial would have helped me. laugh and then thought about the hard court decision didn't give us a chance to get an answer for our case in the courtrooms and i'm not arguing that. u.s. soldier mario lozano was the one who opened fire against the italian mission he tries to appease the public opinion putting the blame exclusively on giuliana sgrena you know she went out there she wanted to go with the terrorist and all that and then she gets caught now we have to say that we have to say. goodbye to go after this one person that knows that she put herself in the situation so it's her for this is
11:51 pm
happening now by for all investigations conducted by the u.s. army acquitted all the soldiers who opened fire against the italian mission in italy spain and great britain judicial investigations stopped due to the pentagon's refusal to cooperate now all journalists need to be on the spot. just as that we need doctors and nurses on the spot to care for the wounded just as we need people on the spot to provide assistance to the community the civil society that are also affected by conflicts but that work of journalists can't take place if they're going to be treated as competent if they're going to be targeted i think it is a struggle. generally speaking not always generally speaking for the right to tell the truth but those who saw their colleagues die. the memories will never affect. the crime committed at the hotel palestine will never be forgotten so
11:52 pm
there must be justice. was it a mistake somebody will forget to give the information a criminal negligence personally i will never forget that day and. the response of what should pay for that negligence plus a bad ass that a dead mouse in itself. why so much death. so much pain so much and. dad meekly weapons fire at the journalists the new cd their right to the information and the home of my son didn't die in a car accident. no he wasn't killed in the strata he didn't die from cancer
11:53 pm
or some other disease but he was murdered. that's why i'm asking you and which keep on asking in front of the american embassy for an impassioned investigation now i'm sorry for those individuals and i'm sorry for the families believe me i have i prayed about it didn't churchly try to hurt no u.s. army did i try to change that or any period ok but that's one of the as we say the casualties of war ok. i wish you would have never happened but it has said. there was no battle that means there was no excuse but you. as you have proved it to be you are while we're at it you gave the order to them and thomas gibson you put literally all three when you knew there you were killing innocent people this
11:54 pm
you know but he did it anyway badly damaged your dish. as you know hate not anymore my sorrow is much stronger than hate it or see it but a craving for justice and i want to see the three of you in a courtroom there in a fat trial like the one you tonight my son to defend yourselves that's going to be as crucial does not explicitly. displays if it is a circus but i want to see you murderous and war criminals condemned but i know. you belong with my deep and eternal condemnation. but my sorrow i do to my son to the mothers in iraq and to say and above all others. because there is no greater pain than to give birth to murderous.
