Very very well made documentary!! That Alan comes off as a fraud. He says others came there to show off and be heros on social media, but when fighting kicks of he's the one rocking a gopro as he smokes a cigarette while others fight.
Ahhhh Alan! I ran into that bloke in a hotel in Hewlar! 😀
Mohammed my brother in arms ❤️👹🏴💥💥💥 This Man was the real deal for a young man of his age ☝️💪 Sadly the others were Clowns😢 but they really did mean well for Kurdistan❤️👹🏴
I would be very grateful if someone could ID the track that is played along side the end credits? Top! – A
Found this through your Ukraine special. Man you need to have your own tv network. Which place made you more nervous? Ukraine or Syria? Where you afraid of any retribution on your family for this even though it’s non biased?
This is a awesome watch.
I absolutely am loving it..and i am not even started it hardley yet.
💪💪💯💯💯😳😳❗
So sad to see Sinjar in such a position. Things were much better when I was there. AQI were basically extinct and IS wasn't a thing yet.
Awesome work, thanks a lot
What is the tittle of the song at the end? I couldn't find it i look it up 1by1 the music you put on credit still no result.
Is anyone know?
Godbless u all….
Hopefully the fucking moron singing on at night patrol gets a .308 in the dome. Shame these guys don’t even have basic comms
Incredibly moving and so poignant. So many truly good men. Konsta was a beautiful soul and his mother equally so. The blackness in between takes can feel suffocating and dark..you are gifted as a documentary maker. Never lose your freshness and empathy
The ISIS supporting Turkish state [Erdogan] is planing on attacking the Kurds in North-East Syria. The world should not stay silent to Erdogan's threats.
This Canadian guy, spent what? 3 years in the military over 10 years ago? Then preaches about not doing it for the money etc, fair enough, but he is still there for the action and you could see he was gutted by his unit/platoon being sent to Afghanistan so here is us in Iraq looking for what he missed. He may be a nice guy, but at the end of the day this is all about his own agenda and filling the gap that he missed. It is ridiculously easy to go to these modern war zones be it in the Middle East or Ukraine, too many foreign fighters are either A) Unsatisfied with their current life or B) in it for the money and C) the very, VERY few who are genuinely there to help out of their heart and my god they are VERY few. I would be so bold to say 1 or 2 out of 20 are there out of selflessness.
Can anyone show me only one verse from the Quran which explains what "Islam" and "Muslim" is? I do not want your thoughts and conjectures I just want to know what Allah said in the Quran, simply "What Islam means". Peace
Rest In Peace Roy
when was this filmed?
I wonder if "Doc" will get RPL for his previous experience if he ever decides to finish medical school haha
It’s sad now that the documentaries you find on Syria now days is all war and grief. Forget that is the oldest city in the world. Forget about the culture,the best of people and forget about the poisoned air the terrorist have brought to once was beautiful country
Excellent documentary, thought I would watch the first 10 mins…it’s now 0530. 👍🏻👍🏻
Roy, the old man in the beginning, is definitely older than 48 years old.
why giving the city to them back in 2014 than suffer all of this al-maliki government is the one bhind all of that + cia …and more just to convert iraq to shisem by force and other goals ….back in 2006 Iraqi resistance made a short video telling the world how the us is preparing the ground for an sunni shia civil war in 2006 just imagine so isis can not come to power without outside support isis are just using religion as a cover while archiving other goals even for some governments most of isis top leaders are secular….isis was just a game evry thing is clear now imagine the good people who died in this game ………
Kurdish are our only True Allies in the ME besides Israel.
Thanks for this great documentary!! You are amazing!
you lose 🐸 lraq is win 🐸💜
Hero's Of Humanity…
I WILL APPLY TO ANYBODY, YHINKING OF GOING THERE! " GO WHITE HELMET, ORE GO FREE KURDISTAN FAR NORTH"
NO, U SOUND LIKE AN ASSHOLE
HELP FREE KURDISTAN // SUPPORT THE "WHITE HELMETS"
TOO FREE A STATE, IS BIG! FREE KURDISTAN! JIMI/NONRELIGIOUSDENMARK
Excellent documentary. What does he say at 38:30. Does he say "if I was religious, i'd have made the sign of my religion"? Mike's pretty epic. Amazingly touching scenes. The plight of the Yezidi's moves me so much. I hope they find peace and the world highlights their cause better.
isis and the Taliban are still popping around and going up in down through size and territory
could someone please tell me the name of the closing credit song?
I don't think there was a single uniform that wasn't jacked up lol.
This is one of the best documentaries that I've watched in a very long time.
HOW ABOUT THE MOTIVATION OF MONEY TO FIGHT??!!
Wow!
This is serious inside footage. Hat's off to them…crazy or not. We need a big enough force so that ISIS wouldn't even be tempted to try. Also cut off the money supply because that's what's encouraging a lot of people, whilst simply having a hate on the world over religion. There's killing, raping, kidnapping, stealing,… etc. It's not religion. We all know that. There's many things that can be done.
I wonder how ISIS got these fancy drones
Great documentary, but every single person who went to Daish to help people is a coward and a fool that was willing to admit of face the facts that their government is to blame for their actions in the middle-east and most importantly in their home nations.
Doc reminded me so much of Kane from the brotherhood of Nod at the end o.o
Isis is funded by the deep state…u muppets..
The deep state are the int3rnational banking elite thwt take advantage of the debt system …over the public, run pedo rings to blackmail ur politicians and abuse children…
The enemy os at home ..
Utube : birth certifiicate your status
I honestly think Alan was full of shit because only those who are full of shit talk that god damn much.
