officials hiding deep in al qaeda territory or al qaeda-dominated area. now the islamictate were bitter rivals of al qaeda, which indeed isis and al baghdadi split away from what was the al qaeda franchise, the nusra group, back in 2014, in order to form isis and actually fought against them, killing many in and around raqqah. so not the obvious place to be hiding, but very close indeed to turkey. some five miles inside syria, close to the turkish border in northwestern idlib province. an area very densely populated now with refugees from government forces and russian forces bombardment, mainly, of towns and cities like aleppo and homs and elsewhere where people have been in the opposition sgru sgr groups. have been heavily concentrated in idlib down in itself, which that whole area has been almost constantly attacked by the regime and russia. a very complex battle space to get involved in. cnn has had some uncorroborated eyewitness reporting from an individual who doesn't want to be named near a village or town called sumada, saying that they reckon there was fighting f

before hitting the al qaeda sanctions list in june 2011. here he led the islamic state of iraq, the al qaeda franchise in iraq. but as the u.s. left iraq and the spring fell apart, sectarian violence of civil war bag a magnet for the blood thirsty. it led to the extremist groups to split in february 2014. months later the group showing breaking the porders of iraq. with al baghdadi at its helm claiming direct lineage from muhammad. an attack on an occupation of mosul. the atrocities in mount sin ja, the procedure of kobani. one of the more terrifying things about the isis he helped create is not its obsession with gruesome video and act of murder, but instead its harnessing of social media to create a global franchise of people it often never met in libya, paris, brussels, people attracted to isis's brand to commit atrocities and even die for it. but in november 2014, rumors of an air strike hitting him. within a week a recording of his speech.

wedge in bin laden's al qaeda, not the other al qaeda. remember the islamicaq was a branch of al qaeda. it is very didn't when bin laden was killed versus when baghdadi is killed. when bin laden was killed al qaeda benefited from a deep cadre of people who had been with bin laden from even before he established al qaeda. some of them still exist until today. the number two of al qaeda was al czar wowwy. they're still running the organization with him. and i think the situation with isis is a little bit different. you'll have a vacuum of leadership. it will be very difficult to fill that vacuum. why? because isis said we're a caliphate. in order to be a caliph, you need to be from koresh and an arab. koresh, the tribe of the prophet. the number two now that is supposedly going to be fit, you know, the position or fill the position of the caliph he's a turkman so it will be difficult for them to stay true to their brand and promote a leader that can be trusted by the rank and file. al qaeda did not have this problem. al qaeda had a lot of leaders who were there

fight isis, if we abandon them, good luck getting anybody to help america in future with radical islam, al qaedaggest winner of this. you may be tired of fighting radical islam but they're not tired of fighting you. i heard the same argument from president obama. all i can say the campaign is over. i expect american president to do what is in our national security interest. it is never in our national security interest to abandon an ally who helped us fight isis. it is never national security interest to create the conditions for reemerge ends of isis. to all the fighters, american soldiers who died against the fight against isis i feel terrible for you because they will come back. you just, you just dismembered syria even further. other than that this is good decision. brian: by the way, would we have defeated isis without the kurds? >> isis is not defeated, my friend. the biggest lie being told about it administration that isis is defeated. the caliphate destroyed but there are thousands of fighters over there and no, the caliphate would not have been destroyed without the kurds and i applaud

like al qaeda or islamic state or something like that. unfortunately we are dealing with all of those things in 2019, bonus, we now get white supremacists on thest rise. we now get o neo-nazis in the re and think there's only collaboration in terms of the asset versus them you. know mistaken. so we do asked the question about in the intractability of this, it's not an intractable. solutions are available right now. secondly talk about what one of the things i in the book with. and that is a very particular diagnoses in terms of what stock was in our government. around how we solve problems. this book talks about the solutions. very critically government has a role to play. so do corporations and so do regular sentences that will get into this but open power, is an assessment based on my time in government where would we look at what our options are, our tools in the toolbox, i see in you know, that our colleagues is smart is they are, there is a way to do things. so with our power, the military executed things in a very particular way and

they told us how radical islamic fighters, allies with al qaeda are fighting for turkey. they went door to door looking for kurds, kidnapping some, killing some, and burning houses to ought ground. these soldiers described to us the horrible burning sensation they felt after shells landed near them. they tried to rub sand over their bodies. we have been hearing accusations of war crimes in northern syria. turkey denies all of them. that being said, the ceasefire is crumbling. there is concern over what can happen the next few days. jon: 63 protesters killed and 7,000 others injured. security forces and iranian-backed militia tried to contain the demonstration. the deadly violence comes two weeks after clashes between protesters and security forces left 109 people dead and thousands wound. 39 people were found dead in a tractor-trailer near london. >> we take all the information we can from that individual. but tattoos, marks, scars, general appearance, these photographs that were taken there. all that information we glean from the initial recovery of our victims. >> briti

with the demise of al-qaeda, the islamic state group was formed by merging with other groups. the islamicging with other groupslj the islamic state group was formed by merging with other groups. i want to pause there. for anyonejust joining us, we have a picture of the white house. plenty of flags, including one of the marine corps. we expect president trump very shortly to come out and talk about the tweet that he sent last night when he said something big was happening. reports are that us special forces have carried out an attack on abu bakr al—baghdadi. we will continue talking while we keep an eye on those pictures and wait for an eye on those pictures and wait foertrump to an eye on those pictures and wait for mr trump to enter. if it is confirmed that al—baghdadi has been killed, how does the islamic state movement regroup? the islamic state group itself has not really disintegrated. it had lost its power base and has been kicked out of iraq. the iraqi government two years ago declared victory over islamic state. was that too early to declare victory? if you are cynical, yes, but t

answer dean wants to impose sharia law across the country various groups selling to al qaeda and the so-called islamic state in recent years they have expanded from the north to central mali and into the neighboring countries. who are governments cannot fight the jihadists because they do not have the right policies in place they don't help the civilians to jihadists a much better organized. unemployment a lack of resources and a crippled government mali is an easy place for jihad is to find new recruits. this country has become a with you for jihad is that again means that it's a blind spot to many things and we are seeing the growing threat of islamic militancy. citizens are growing weary of the instability in mali. even the young people will join the jihadists. because there's no work. we all have a family so one should think about whether it's good to join you'll kill people this is not good. chere a lot of people leave no one's to fight many of them returned as dead but i don't understand. why there are explains that before he joined dean he was teaching the koran and that was also his job with t

perverted ideology and it manifests itself in different forms the muslim brotherhood islamic jihad hamas hezbollah isis al-qaeda you know it's all the same thing meanwhile you hear next to nothing about extreme political charges that have much more relevance to the conflict the platform the ruling the crude party in israel. a klan destroying world of illegal trade what you have here is not just archaeological objects you're talking about the political dimension where the spoils of war are smuggled and sold to auction houses and private collectors are selling artifact is where finance is the be headaches and must use in the middle east don't say don't that's one quick solution. trafficking on al-jazeera. we have a news gathering team here that is 2nd to their all over the world and they do a fantastic job when information is coming in very quickly all at once you've got to be able to react to all of the changes and al-jazeera we adapt to that. my job is is to break it all down and we held the view on the stand make sense of it. i believe the instill in. a place like no. generation by the sun. but the discovery o

alarmed what they see this syrian rebels they claim a link to your heart is groups and even al qaeda an islamic state now on quote the nice side but there is profound concern about the safety of the people there and given the fact the vice president mike pence on speaking after the deal ruled out any deployment of u.s. forces in this area only adds to that concern so yes at the moment that does seem to be a big difference in the understanding of this agreement is very much a ceasefire a work in progress but time is running out and i do i am president i don't want to say he wants to resettle one and a half to 2000000 a syrian refugees from turkey and put them into this area what about the refugees themselves would they be willing to make that kind of move. well that is a very big question turkey is hosting over 3 and a half 1000000 refugees many of them who have been here for many years now and have carved out a new life for themselves would they be prepared to move back to the safe so much turkey wants to create many of these people don't even come from this area given the fact that there were

islamic state. unlike, for instance, bin laden, who was a cult figure in al qaeda, al baghdadi wasn't seen as the embodimentte. he was seen as the head of it. you didn't have the cult of personality. osama bin laden, his fame goes back to the mid 1980s, during the soviet occupation of afghanistan. baghdadi, when he first appeared in july of 2014, announcing the position of the caliphate, he was in the unknown. even within iraq itself. he was an unknown figure. we know that the islamic state, in afghanistan, in the fill l n philippin philippines. and it's unlikely if abu baghdadi, that isis is going to disappear. >> we will leave it there for now. it will bornlt to get your perspective in the coming hours. 50 days, front-row seat as they tried to hold on to their caliphate. all of those people that still believe in the brutal ideology. ben wedeman, we'll come back to you. >>> please stay with cnn as we cover the breaking news. a military raid is believed to have killed the leader of isis. because getting older... should mean being healthy enough to act young. because farmers should be able to use less water

long stretch in the shadows of iraq's savage civil war before hitting the al qaeda sanctions list in 2011. here he led the islamicte of iraq. as the u.s. left iraq and the arab spring fell apart. the violence of syria's civil war became a magnet for the blood thirsty. al-baghdadi silently behind isis violence even al qaeda didn't back it. months laters its followers declaring it's caliphate. this was al-baghdadi's moment. the pinnacle of years of calculation and isis rose fast. then came the attack on an occupation of mosul. the atrocities against the people, the be headings of western hostages. horrors marked by an obscene worship of violence. al-baghdadi isn't visible, but a doubtless decision maker. one more terrifying thing is not isis' obsession with gruesome murder, but its harnessing of social media to create. there were atrocities committed by isis' brand to die for it. in november 2014 rumors of an air strike hitting him and then within a week a recording of his speech. it became a pattern. no public appearances mixed with randomly released audio statements. u.s. officials told cnn they believe he was in

al-qaeda. al-qaeda sees itself as representative of the struggle between islam and crusaders. at the embassy in london, jamal returned to saudi. he edited a newspaper but was banned from writing after speaking his mind under a regime he was now finding autocratic and repressive. in 2017, he fled to america. i wish i could go home and take part but the environment isn't welcoming to me or any saudi writers or economists who is independent. jamal khashoggi was invited to write for the washington post. he was working with his friend, david ignatius, the paper's investigative journalist with a deep knowledge of saudi. he used to love to come to this newsroom. he'd walk around and look in offices and see people work and he just beamed. jamal wrote 20 columns in the year before his death. "saudi arabia wasn't always this repressive. now it's unbearable. it is the only home we know or want. yet we are the enemy." this man — the new saudi crown prince, mohammed bin salman — was a target of jamal‘s criticism. mbs, as he's known, was hailed by many in the west as a reformer. very nice p
