in less than a week, their army took mosul. you have to take sides.hem or against them. i decided to stand against them. at that time i was teaching at the university. and it was taken over as a military camp. mosul eye was a website i set up to get information out to the rest of the world. i wake up in the morning, i go out, i collect information, and then i go back. i would go everything by hand and scan it in. 0ne mistake could lead to death, to the end. from the pulpits, the isis leader — abu bakr al—baghdadi — proclaimed himself the ruler of all muslims. i felt very offended because who is this guide is a claim he is a caliph in our city? isis was getting into the city, into the neighbourhoods, there was only a thin wall between me and isis when i was reporting against them. next door was an isis senior fighter, the other house next to our house was a isis fighter, in front of us was a house of isis. behind the city there was another war house of isis was up and i am in the middle of all of this, reporting against isis! from the beginning i decid

in raqqa was much smaller on mosul.osul in june of 2014, the nature of war changed just as surely has it had on 9/11. suddenly thin sur gent group who had taken smaller cities, fallujah, ra maddie, took the second largest city in iraq in a middle-income city. everyone knew that mosul would have to fall eventually and they knew if it fell it would spell the end of the caliphate at least in iraq, and if not isis, at least their territory. >> there is this desire, i think, among the american people historically and now to somehow declare victory. >> yeah. >> what does victory look like. >> donald trump has declared victory said isis is defeated but we have al qaeda morphant to isis. how do you declare victory against a defeat like that? >> i think it's a significant victory, it took away their territory. what was remarkable about isis as compared to al qaeda or so many other groups is they held a great deal of territory. they had a state, a government, a regime, an economy. they had a school system. they had a society. tha

could lessons learned from mosul hedalpef pittard commanded the coalition response in iraq in 2014, andd bryant, was part of the special ops teams on the ground. they give a candid account of the war in their new book," hunting the caliphate: america's war on isis and the dawn of the strike cell." gentlemen, it's nice to have you with me. dana: oh thank you for having us. you bet. soledad: so this book begins very dramatically like a page turner where you're describing a guy named abu ali. and there's this dramatic plan to try to kill him. you don't want to have any collateral damage of course which makes it tricky. and basically in the fall of 2014 you have a checkpoint that's blown up and it's a way to get him to kind of head there and there's a targeted strike that takes him out. i mean it's extremely dramatic. how many of the isis leaders had a story like this guy abu ali? dana: a lot in fact -- in fact , it's not an accident that within the first eight months of the conflict starting in 2014, within the first eight months, 40 of the 50 top isis leaders were killed. would you sare da
