we have lost our town to daesh. we are fighting daesh a year and a half ago and now they are away. i think there is a crisis, i agree. what daesh created in iraq was dangerous. they used effect against minoriti minorities. this created hostility. we saw it with the women being sold, we have strong against christian and muslims, and shiite in certain areas and sunnis in areas controlled by daesh. we must stop it. sometimes the military can't. the military is there to liberate. it is not there to fight against the people. i issued a command for everyone to hand over the security to the local police. we need to do the same. we don't have a problem now in anbar. we have about 9,000 of local forces. we have a local police force who is controlling these places. we don't intend to leave our army inside the city. we are not going back to the previous area. we are going to every city we liberate to hand over to the local priest. that is why we passed the coalition or training of the local police. we started the forces and have been very successful. yes, there are problems. there are crimina

i want to say little bit about daesh. daesh is a terrorist organization with a psych to path, who have no -- psychopath who have no religion and no morals. they attract other psycho paths, and it's a cult. and it will be defeated. but in order to defeat daesh, we have to deal with what i call the two elephants in the room. one of those elephants is bashar al-assad. we cannot defeat daesh in syria unless we bring about change in bashar al-assad. he is the man who helped create it, by releasing radicals from his jails, by allowing daesh to operate without attacking them, by even trading with them. he is -- allowed them to become what they are, and unless and until there's a cheng in syria, daesh will not be defeated in syria. period. we have an international coalition of which my country was a founding member that has been bombing daesh and syria for 15 months, and it's still around. the environment in which daesh operates in syria will be removed and we can deal with them. the second elephant in the room. is implementing t

we know as a progress, and if the daesh, daesh will try again to resort to terrorism and to bomb, car bombs and other mechanisms to kill innocent people in the capital because this will take off in the media. and their media crazy. we have to protect the population of baghdad. our security checks, and our intelligence, most of the car bombs, in actual fact, more than 95% of the car bombs come from outside of baghdad. we do not want to suggest the population of baghdad to a lengthy search. what we have done, we are trying to control the entry and exit to baghdad. with modern equipment, so that you can control the flow of terrorists and car bombs into the city. this is very important for us. in actual fact, it makes it easier for the population to move in and out, rather than moments where you have to search people. that is our --. reconciliation is a fundamental pillar of my administration. and we are working on it. in the past, people were talking about external reconciliation outside the country, now we do not have an opposition outside the country. we are happy with her opposition,

second is daesh. when we warned against daesh, particularly in this conference last year, it was greeted as a way that i wanted to attract attention to afghanistan. today i hope nobody is in denial al qaeda. al qaeda is not finished. at time when we are focused on daesh's threats, i hope to god i'm wrong, al qaeda has regrouped, and now we need to deal with a renewed al qaeda threat. -- ands are common threadses but what is the platform? the criminal economy provides ps the common platform for all these movements. narcotics and refugees. smuggling are part of the same network, and unless we focus on the -- of globalization, the $1.7 trillion of criminal economy, we will be acting on the part of the problem, not all of it. there's the additional trouble. state sponsorship of a lined nonstate actors continues. worse, some states behave like nonstate actors, and this is of course driven by the failure to agree and act on rules of the game. all of this combined to have a displacement effect. when we addre

this will play into the hands of daesh. daesh once this. --daesh wants this clash of civilization between europe and in the islamic world. so they recruitment of innocent people will increase. we should avoid that. we should address the problem at the source. we are doing this in iraq, but we have to accelerated. for refugees to go back to their homes so they don't have to seek shelter somewhere else. speaking with the chancellor in berlin, we talked about the criminal gangs trading in people. they are not being stopped collectively by countries, by europe and others. every country is working on its own without collaboration with others. i think we need a very clear standard. these criminal gangs are misleading, are destroying families, are causing families to sell their valuables in order follow through on a promise of paradise. to progress oner this solution. addition to our military, we have the public mobilization force. these are volunteers, that when daesh entered into iraq, some elements of the armed forces collapsed. so we do not ha

to argue that daesh is islamic, is preposterous. the quran refeels that you have your faith, and i have my faith. and you are free to practice your faith, and i am free to practice mine. what greater sign of tolerance do you have than this. in the quran, it says he who saves a soul, is as if he saved all of humanity. what better example of compassion and mercy do you have than this. so if you look at what daesh says and you are saying it is in the subscriptions? doesn't the old testament say an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. if somebody does it today would you say they are christian or jewish? so i caution people, because it seems to have become almost nofl -- not novel, it has become the flavor of the day to read things that are not there. the islamic religion, and islamic civilization was the civilization that preserved the history of [ inaudible ] and passed it on to the west. western civilization would not exist without the islamic civilization. the islamic civilization, and the islamic arab civilization connected china

affiliate of daesh. declaration of allegiance, unity and nominate a leader, develop a strategy to implement islamic law, establish contact with the isil leadership and gain leadership isil leadership support. whether there is a -- defining the scope of it, elements within bangladesh are on their way now to meeting all five criteria that daesh has published in their own open publication. >> it's no presence. the government has successfully contained the home grown mi militant. at present, the country is free of any islamic groups. >> if it's okay, probably won't take them off my list just yet. i will kind of watch that. i take your word for it but i probably won't take them off the list just yet. sir. >> so until this past may, i was a program manager where i ran probably the largest research program in social media research in the united states government to date, $50 million. i was not able to get anybody in the united states government, more or less, interested in using any of this fantastic technology

we are going to defeat daesh, i have no doubt about it. even as we do that, we have to do work on a measurable manner. first and foremost, we're going after their fighters. our coalition has launched more than 10,000 airstrikes. we, the united states, and france, coupled with other countries have put special forces on the ground in iraq and syria in order to better enable a number of operations whilst also providing increased amounts of training and equipment to our local partners. together, we have pushed terrorists out of about 40% of the territory that they once controlled in iraq. 20% in syria. we have liberated to treat --liberated tikrit. 100,000 sunni have returned to build their homes. an extraordinary story that does not get enough credit. we have liberated sinjar. we are hammering daesh's heavy weapons, it's training camps, supply routes, infrastructure. and it's terrorism and military campaign is expanding by the day. but it's not enough just to dock them down, militarily, which we are doing. you have to ensure that they cannot

for anyone to argue that daesh is islamic is preposterous. you have your faith and i have my faith and you are free to practice your faith and i am free to practice mine. and greater tolerance acceptance do you have done this? ,e who kills an innocent soul it is as if he has killed all of humanity, and he who saves an innocent soul, it it is as if he has saved all of humanity? what greater compassion do we have than this? if you say it is in the scriptures, doesn't the old testament say an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth? does it today, would you say they were christian or they were jewish? so, i caution people, because it seems to have become almost novel -- not novel, it has toome the flavor of the day attribute things to daesh that are not there. the islamic religion and the islamic civilization is the civilization that preserves the -- western civilization would not exist without the islamic arabs. the islamic civilization and the islamic arab civilization was a civilization that connected china with europe, so it was global. a poi

of daesh.ration of allegiance, unity and nominate a leader, develop a strategy to implement islamic law, establish contact with the isil leadership, and gain the leadership, isil leadership support. whether there is, defined the scope of the, elements within bangladesh are on the way now to meeting all five criteria that daesh has published in the open publication. [inaudible] >> -- and the government has successfully contained a homegrown military. at present, the country is free of any extremist radical islamic groups. >> if it's okay i probably will not taken off my list just yet. i will just can't watch that. i take your word for it but i probably will not take them off the list just yet. sir. >> until this past me i was a program manager at darpa were iran probably the largest research program in socially research into united states garb to date, the order of about $50 million. and i was not able to get anybody in the tiny government, more or less come interested in using any of his techno

including iran, and that is isis or daesh. if we can get-- the reason ending the civil war is so important, obviously it's vitally important just on a sheer humanitarian level. this has been one of the most horrific. >> rose: 260,000 people and 4 million refugees. >> that is something we should talk about toorksz the refugees because that is a whole other dilemma. but there is literally one of the worst crises that we've seen on that level. but second, two other things. one of course the spillover affect is increasingly dramatic. we see it not only in the neighboring countries of turkey, lebanon, jordan but increasingly in europe with the refugees. and this dagger at the heart of european cohetion is something that is of growing concern to our european partners. >> rose: and to us. >> and to us, absolutely. but the third piece is this. we are succeeding against daesh. and we can talk about that. but we are pushing them back effectively in iraq. we've taken 40% of the territory that they held a year ago and even in syria, they

and yemen, and i want to say a little bit about daesh.terrorist organization composed of psycho paths who have no religion, and no morals. they attract other psychopaths, and they're -- and it's a cult, and it will be defeated, but in order to defeat daesh, we have to deal with what i call the two elephants in the room. one of those elephants is bashar al-assad. we cannot defeat daesh in syria unless we bring about change in bashar al-assad. he is the man who helped create it. by releasing radicals from his jails. but allowing daesh to operate without attacking them. by even trading with them. he is the man that allowed them to become what they are, and unless and until there is a change in syria, daesh will not be defeated in syria, period. we have an international coalition of which my country was a founding member that has been bombing daesh in syria for 15 months, and it's still around. so when assad goes, the fertile environment in which daesh operates in syria will be removed and we can deal with them. the second elephant in the roo

and that is isis or daesh. if we can get -- the reason for ending this civil war this is on a civil level. harlie: four million people. guest: four million people. there is literally one of the worst cries sees we have seen. one of couric, the spillover effect and we see it in turkey, lebanon and jordan and this dagger at the heart of the european cohesion is of growing concern to us. but the third piece is this. we are succeeding against daesh and we can talk about that but we have taken 0% of the territory and in syria. arlie: when will we retake most you will? guest: we want to do it when the time is right. we are making it harder for ings to move it back and forth. but if we succeed on the ground won't be successful, assaad is the number one recruiting tule. that's another reason why we have to get this. charlie: assaad is the main recruiting tool. retake most you will that will have a significant impact of what happens in syria and assaad. guest: what is important, there are two bases and the heart of the

daesh does not have any notion of how to build a future. they want to [ technical difficulties ] sdwlfrjs [ technical difficulties ] >> and restore stability and hopefully restore the future to the millions of people that have been displaced from their homes as a consequence of the intragedience of assad and his regime, and the rise of extremists who have taken advantage of the vacuum that has come with that. thank you. [ speaking italian ] >> translator: some questions from the "washington post." >> thanks. the [ technical difficulties ] >> for the stabilization fund you said is no necessary? >> so as you know, we leave here to go to london -- tomorrow i leave to go to london, and there will be a major meeting in london in which we will be contributing all of the countryings coming, some heads of government to make announcements about their contributions to the ongoing effort to rebuild syria and help support syria going forward. and that basically is the stabilization, and i believe in the very -- in a very significant way, it's up to the

and that is isis or daesh. if we can get -- the reason for ending this civil war this is on a civil level. charlie: four million people. charlie: assaad is the main recruiting tool. retake most you will that will have a significant impact of what happens in syria and assaad. guest: what is important, there are two bases and the heart of the self-declared caliphate is that. the reason that daesh has succeeded is creating the perception the home base that it is marching forward that it is 10 feet tall. if you take away that foundation, it will begin to crumble. affiliates that are preexisting targets, money will slow down. and getting at their core is so important. charlie: so what are we prepared to do? before you answer that, who is it that we are supporting there? and who are the rebel groups? and same rebel groups or new groups? and how many are there? and how many are there? we used to talk about the free syrian army? how strong are they? guest: we have worked over the last four years in trying to identify,

there's a big long solid line i can see with the red rebels and purple daesh could be using some help. >> all right. so, i talk about that. what you see this is the moral line. we've been supporting partner force there's along the moral line really for months. we continue to conduct strikes, take strikes as the opportunities present themselves. and we are continue network very closely with the vetted syrian opposition along that moral line, and the enemy which, of course is there in the purple. it's important to note too that some of the forces that we trained in the original syria train and equip operation about a year ago are continuing to fight along that moral line there. neighboring with them probably the most powerful weapon on the battlefield which is communications. those forces that we trained, the new syrian army we started calling them, are participating in that fight along the moral line. they are continuing to use the skills and the equipment and the ammunition we provided them to hold that line against the enemy and then in some cases even attack and seize villages. >> y

we are going to defeat daesh. i have no doubt about it. but even as we do that there is a lot of work that we have to do on a measurable manner. first and foremost we are going after their fighters. our coalition has launched more than 10,000 airstrik pstrik10,0. we have put special forces on the ground in iraq and syria in order to better operate a number of functions and increased training and equipment to our local partners. together we are pushed terrorist out of about 40% of the territory they once controlled in iraq. and 20% in syria. we have liberated towns and 100,000 sunnis returned home. we liberated ramadi, and kobani, and other areas. we are hammering daesh's heavy weapons, training camps, supply roots, and infrastructure. and the military campaigns show terrorism is expanding by the day. but it is not enough to just knock them down. you have to ensure they cannot get back up. that is why the second step is critical. destroying their economic line. we have learned more about daesh's source of income which allows us to be more s

and as i said, those jumpsuits didn't come out of the imagination of daesh. they came out of the images of guantanamo. >> and last question, sir, since i'm running out of time. >> we're out of time but the last questions could be in writing. we go to brian higgins of new york. >> thank you, mr. chairman. mr. secretary, the continent of africa, you know, 55 countries, a population of a billion people. that population is expected to double by the year 2050. and a lot of failed states, particularly in central africa. we see the introduction of isis in libya, we see the terrorism of boko haram in nigeria and we see the tearing apart of the newest country in the world in south sudan with the population of some 11 million people. the u.n. reported that in south sudan soldiers with government uniforms were entering united nations mission in south sudan, protection of civilian camps, firing on civilians and killing many of them, creating great instability. so i think when you look at, you know, particularly the activity of nonstate terrorist actors, isis and in boko

this is in the fight against daesh. let me emphasize. and as part of our effort, part of the president's effort to explore every possibility that is reasonable of ways in which to have an impact on ending the surge of daesh, that is being evaluated. >> what about other countries in the region, pakistan, turkey, egypt, algeria, morocco, to send ground troops against isis? >> there have been broad d discussions with various mill to mill discussions. providing possible people in certain circumstances. >> can i ask unanimous consent request? >> yes, sir. >> thank you. mr. chairman, i ask unanimous consent that letter dated december 13, 2012, addressed to then secretary hillary rodham clinton be placed in the record. >> without objection. >> and i further ask that the response from the state department dated march 27, 2013, to then chairman darrell issa be placed in the record. >> without objection. >> lastly i would ask the news articles from the daily caller dated january 30, 2016 and the hill, dated 2-2-2016 be placed in the record. >> wit

we must do everything we can to defeat that daesh and is a violent ideology.ding role in this, and in terms of iran, where many of these women suffered, daesh has lost 40% of the territory it once controlled, so we are making progress. as i said earlier, it is going to take a long time. building off the rocky security -- iraqi security forces, building the capacity of governments in both countries to drive the evil organization out. we must stick at it. jeremy corbyn: mr. robinson. condolencesn the with the leader of the opposition in relation to harry hartman. i pass mymight -- wishes to his family. i hope his party find an agreement there will be no detriment to scotland with new arrangements. the u.k. treasury is proposing plans that may be detrimental to scotland to the change of 300 billion pounds. david cameron: we accept the smith principles of no detriment. no detriment to scotland quite at this time when the transfer is made in terms of scotland having these new tax raising to tax and the detriment players, but also the rest of the united kingdom, who

they say daesh, being a derogatory term in arabic.y say they are willing as a islamic countries to take the lead, but they need to work with others, because as they point out, this is an international threat, and if you displace it in one place than it crops up in another place, like libya. they talk about the foreign fighters from europe and the unit states who have made pilgrimages to fight with islamic state. there was no agreement on how islamic state can be defeated. the prime minister was optimistic saying they had been routed and places, except mosul. saudi arabia saying that without bashar al-assad out of the way and a settlement that gives sunnis more power, we will not defeat daesh anytime soon. >> we will be back with you and a few minutes to talk a little bit more about the situation in syria. thank you very much. the german newsweekly der spiegel is reporting that russian ground troops are supporting president bashar al-assad's forces in the syrian civil war. according to their spiegel, 3000 troops are stationed in northw

it's a sign of weakness to act with a terror organization like the ypg in the fight against daesh. >>ter: but on the ground the u.s. continues to provide air cover to the ypg and its ally, the syrian democratic forces as they push deeper into isil-held territory. the kurdish fighters are closing in on a main supply route that isil also known as daesh uses to move between its strong holds in syria and neighboring iraq. >> it's not about choosing sides here. there's no doubt about turkey's membership in the coalition. obviously there's no doubt about our commitment to a fellow nato ally, and there's also no doubt that some of the strongest fighters against daesh inside of syria have been kurdish fighters. >> reporter: but they have not only been taking territory from isil. they also have been taking ground from opposition groups backed by turkey. for turkey that is a red line. ankara wants to prevent further ypged a vabss particularly close to its border. ankara considers that a threat to its national security, and has made clear that it will take all of the necessary measures to preven

we must do everything we can to defeat daesh and its violent ideology.are playing a leading role in this global coalition. in terms of iraq where so many ucd's supper, wage has lost over 40% of the territory it once controlled -- suffered. assets at the time of the debate about syria it's going to take a long time to build up iraqi security forces, working with opposition forces, building the capacity of governments in both countries to try this evil organization out of the middle these. for however long it takes we must stick at it. >> we on the benches of join in the condolences the prime minister and a leader of the opposition coalition to harriet harman and pass our best wishes to his family of this sad, difficult time. mr. speaker, the prime minister made -- his party signed an agreement that would be no detriment to scotland with new devolution arrangements. why is the uk treasury hosting plans that may be detrimental for scotland to the tune of 3 billion pounds? >> first of all we except the smith principles of no detriment that there are two prin

my question is how is turkey's tensions with the kurds affected our ongoing fight against daesh

and we must do everything we can to defeat daesh and its violent ideology. now, we're praying a leading role in this global coalition. in terms of iraq where so many yazidis suffered, daesh has 40% of the territory it once controlled. so we are making progress. but as i said at the time of the debate about syria, this is going to take a long time. building up iraqi forces, working with syrian opposition forces, building the capacity of government in both countries to drive this evil organization out of the middle east. but however long it takes, we must stick at it. >> angus robertson. >> we join in the condolences of the prime minister and the leader of the opposition in relation to harry hartman and pass on our best wishes to his family at a sad and difficult time. mr. prime minister, is his party in agreement that there will be no debt with no -- why is the uk treasury proposing plans that may be detrimental for scotland to the tune of 3 billion pounds. >> we accept the smith principles of no detriment. no detriment to scotland quite rightly at the time w

>> i reject that you're suggesting that daesh have been a success because of our platform. absolutely that's not the case. we are one of the main -- we've worked very hard to disrupt what they do in partnership with other organizations also committed to disrupting them. and we will continue to strive to do better. of course, we can always do more. we are always trying to learn but i reject the suggestion that we are -- we don't care about the issue. that's far from the truth. >> that wasn't the suggestion. the question was that -- because i'm sure you could do more, but you may have reasons of principle or cost for not doing more. but there is plenty technologically more. in facebook you banned nipples and it causes offense to women with breast cancer or to women who are breastfeeding that you have technology that bans pictures of nipples and yet -- and yet terrorist content from isis sometimes seems to get through the nets. >> with respect, that's not true. "a," we do allow pictures of breastfeeding and we allow people to post pictures of mastectomy scars. we don't allow n

the stated goal is to fighting daesh. nevertheless, the attach have instrumental for other ends russia, one of the main talking points in coming to syria was to fight deash. to fight the terrorist groups. >> i wonder where this leads t the. >> well, the kurds is a big part of the picture as turkey is very much concerned with the ypgs, the people protection units that move between the offering confound and capturing the area at the syrian opposition but also at the end of daesh by physically attempting to some kind of democratic big change to create between these two areas. they have not had such a move, and they will retaliate with all necessary means. we don't know yet what it means turkey will do all it can to stage an eventuallity. but what they'll be able to do is stop ypg from undertaking such a move is yet to be seen. >> thanks very much for talking with us. >>> and the situation in syria is dominating a security con for instance in munich, as you can imagine. dominic kane is there. what's been said so far, what do

this is in the fight against daesh. let me

the physical entity of daesh and ideology. the physical entity, which we know from jordan and from our intelligence, with the help of the several organizations, that there always, always have support from somewhere. they cannot exist on just what we have. they must have logistics. i did my ph.d. in logistics. they must have had some very, very powerful and strong and very, very deep logistic support from somewhere. and the problem is that they still do. so that is something to do with their physicality with whatever they are doing at the moment. the most important issue for us, whether it is here in the united states or in our area, is the ideology that they are using. the ideology that they are implementing in order to radicalize people. the guy in california, i can't imagine that such a person with nice wife, nice home, nice job, and he does something like that. when the bombings in london in 2005, i was there. i was stationed at the embassy of jordan in london, the four people that -- the perpetrators, criminals, whatever w

daesh does form a existential threat in the middle east.di arabia and gulf countries generally recognize it is the presence of the syrian regime that is contributing to the presence of daesh in the first place. >> we see the iranian foreign minister saying we will cooperate with anybody. but is iran actually if not happy, it's quite prepared to let russia continuing doing what it is doing to -- to support the assad regime, and see the oppositions position fundamentally weakened as a result? >> i will say that iran in the very beginning had a more leading role in the syrian conflict than it is today. today russia is the leading actor, but of course, iran is benefitting from the scenario, because without russia's air campaign, i think iran was about to struggle in syria on the ground as well. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> appreciate your ebbs per tease on this. >>> now to canada is country which says it is on track to welcome 25,000 new syrian refugees by next month. 4,000 have already arrived since the end of last year. >> reporter: this pe

closer to the united states than al qaeda and daesh, the more extremist groups. i think russians basically, that's to me if you will reading between the lines, the russians have run out of targets to hit in syria. i think they had an offensive plan for the month of february and that's why when secretary kerry insisted something must happen ten days ago, they said no no no, it has to wait until the end of the month, they got their way, it's not going to happen until the end of the month they will probably get their offensive strategy in place, the stunning grab of the syrian war if you will, but the americans are also getting fed up with the syrian issue, getting fed up with being humiliated by the syrian issue. that's why i think, and that's my last point that i think president obama has made a deal with. president putin, as to what the political solution would look like moving forward. >> okay that's your last point on that but please stay with us, because it's not your last point if i have anything to say with it on the bigger picture. the russians have slapped
