So yes you know we didnt need all the politicians you know and terry the heads of state. Woman and they drop their bombs do they ever think of the people that would like. To look into one eye as 5. 100 civilians a just one in this is where their corpses were not buried under the rubble. I i though he this is my wife alia this is dia. This is on a. High on this is a mia why would i. Be actually was my favorite. She was just a child that i saw affection so bad guy in the morning shed come out cuddle with me i dont know if i did me. Im not there all day and im. Going to love them all and almost all i wish i died with them yeah it was i think its as if we were animals in the jungle but whos taking care of us live here where is the state didnt know what to do with it and that i wanted a disaster happens the people need help im a roof over their house and i dont have the house im alone in this i know but it. My done neighborhood in mosul in iraq. This is where some of the toughest urban fighting in recent history ended in july 2017. Final chapter in the battle of mozilla when the iraqi army defeated the Islamic State. Centuries of history reduced to rubble. Stench of death in the air. Bodies decaying in the heat. 8 months later the bodies of is. Fighters and the civilians killed with them are still here. Traces of their lives lies scattered amid the debris. The aftermath of war. Mines unexploded ordinance. The nightmarish legacy of military combat. Rocks stones shattered splintered crushed to dust. The pulver rise remains of human beings. That battle of knows all is over. Now what. Thanks. Well you know this point. Let me say that i guess that you have some. You know its not him. But. Look at this birth certificate these are bodies of i asked fighters that had guys that. See that place over there and there are over 70 corpses in there. Thats where. This was a house with a big center. It was occupied by us fighters. There were over 100 of them they all died in just the n. S. A. Take over a week to recover the bodies and this to my son we dont find even if we use next of asia. That they. Didnt to bury i asked fighters and the corpses are disposed of along with the rubble and how much for the whole city. But at the end. Of life here in isolated us from the world we were waiting to be killed. For 3 years no one came to free us the suffering was unbearable. And i then. Have to clear everything all of we have a hero base. This is where the mosque was. How this was my brothers house i live it was this is house yes. This is safe to go in there no its not mine im just not been secured. That everything was. This was my house it was very old more than 300 square meters in size i got a stem stench is terrible i said. Yes but i knew i needed some point you start to forget how good i am a looking for good god has given us the gift of forgetting well i can now you know. Every time i come here it makes me sad i stop day i go out keep myself busy help recover. But i cant stay longer than a quarter of an hour you know if i stay longer i get depressed in a savage. Is this what religion does i would have been. You know theres maybe. We have the whole world against the i asked and liberated iraq from its rule. My task was to supervise the work of the governorate of nineveh to rebuild the city and help its inhabitants. The old town was completely destroyed. But life is slowly returning to the east of the city. But yeah to. That. Analogy that. We have looked at in this building it is vengeance. But you know of a university being bombed by ice is this 1. 1000 students and about 6000. Professors and teachers. We have now do have its more than 40 buildings inside the university. Little has. The structure what was this is a design for a hospital. Thats about enough and doesnt seem any high i was inspired by a leonardo da vincis famous drawing the trial is interviewing men like to what. I notice is a throne in the spot. In the lineup. Its a dream yes you know way but this is the truth in the future. But that this it gives hope yet and the hope for for the people of the old city of course it is but as if you were coming to talk about sometime in the future. Your. Challenges while to pull. Without International Support will not be able to. This changes. Before we need to what are the subjects of projects we need for truth we summarize it into 15 sectors and we put what a project 5000 houses 2nd the project is Health Health is a big. I mean to have them out to be cost but those also sort of bridges we could see if we have the 2. 00 bridges that this year old so. We could see the cities sewage water out of it on several projects you know those so that are projects for universities for schools i dont think they need to get the budget for the surprise acts. But at least for some of that. Surplus. Into his city with the teller they thought that to have meant to having. The security back to the sort of rebuilding was so that its very important i have to the school. Here in. Mosul remain the largest challenge that we create today government in the United Nations worried that unless that 30 can immediately stabilize the areas we could be a re a margin of violent 3 meant that. Most. Of the. Huge props federal police for the holding for some western mass on their crack that they cant do law and order so they him 5 in the militia and the militia run the checkpoints so every sunni is trying to get back in the west mosul kids around militia says oh no no. The sunni just wont go home if the federal police which is shia and the militia are there they wont go home you have the problem of a political vacuum in mosul we cant solve it so were going to ignore it and this is this is the scary thing. Right heres where they are. Because you know what happened there was no golden door for miles but i saw shave their beards put on dirty sandals and walked out. And theyre sitting right there. Last year when a real guy john remember them asked people condemned to death wrong from them up when i last run well in their america on america over to over there or how loudly put signs in front of the bodies stating why they were executed. And one old man looks so terrible to him his stomach was sliced open and his guts was spilling out i couldnt sleep that night and it looks so horrible him. Giving me my son was with her. And i was the words cant describe that time it was a dream. And most. Islamic state controlled most a lot for years everyone had a son a nephew or a cousin without us. Threatened by law 75 percent of the citys population supported i assume there are still many of us here. A bidayuh scrawled Islamic State on our houses. Had to then even if you wipe it away people know who the house is belong to and find out i mean our children are not allowed to go to school all their rights have been taken away from them and they cant even get identity cards. And one of them even n. G. O. S turn us away so when what i had i looked at the lot when i went there with my grandchildren who were all friends to get them birth certificates i mean. She had them. And said you see. Well im going to the lawyer turned us away when she realized who their father was. He said she wouldnt help us and we should go to hell. You know jane but its not a childrens fault or a suburb laziness. Then then were humiliated in them as our past was glorious but now were oppressed and. Its unbearable to see these flags they stand for iran and the shiites stand yeah yeah well you had the honor hussein and ali but were sudanese. You see there are venting their religion theyre taking revenge against sunni its revenge you come. Into. Mine in. The sleeper cells and i for. The job every day i ask fighters from the west have migrated to the east of the city would be theirs and those from the eastern now in the south of the city theyre scattered everywhere and i dont know that were doing everything we can to punish them but what. That does with the rest of you just then yellow and then ill get down. It would only about one of i should have you with. This is us. With the other one of. The. Bush this. Morning youre. Down on the. Youre with. A cut and what i. Want out of a lot of that but ill. Good luck with the other enough to mean that its just. That ill start with what they like with. The. Law but they know. A lamb and one of. The. U. N. Agencies have had some difficulties planning the reconstruction effort with the governorate. Im with you on the island the state has given us this task now we have to take care of it. But the governor it is proving difficult its very uncooperative. So one half of our race which is the governor and his council want to decide everything but thats just not possible. Expectations being reversed right. 9000 houses. We have. Probably around 30000000. 00. To repair houses for up to about 4000. 00 or house 2500. 00 is said is that it. Is that because of the levels of damage she said we asked to do this and they were agreed. To speak about made. No no over what the governor claims to have had reconstruction work done in the old town i havent seen any of it have any of you. I dont mean i dont want to see you doing hard work when contractors youve hired are lining their pockets at your expense thats corruption. And ive been disciplined enough that it is you know we have been informed that corruption is going on him. And now were measuring as well as soon as the governor gets wind of un d. P. Evacuation work he sends along an excavator to do minor jumps and then claims credit. The money comes from the un d. P. And the Reconstruction Fund the governor i received a small sum but we dont know where its gone there is no transparency otome. The. Governor runs his governor its a loan here its as though there were 2 governess on the. Director of the university and of home a surgeon thats been tasked with the rebuilding of a suit which is not a job hes qualified for modern man or more. Of the. Last appointment is unlawful and i think the task of the governor at. We dont have any money before when he has a go until fall of the moment and july until now we dont have any money. Just. This new evidence today that said you tried stuck in my how could i have and i dont have any money like you need a mom or dad and even. Short of corn and if as. Thats usually thats a democrat the of any peasant hes speaking of that for me thats usually i dont already have all of the. Im just on a cell along with a lot of us i am not what i am of this little article about what i think the unknown gene in way. Of the majestic stumble the surely. The other yeah that little bit of the line yet at the moment the latest version of the let me know its mostly here in the High School English class adolescence my mother might get into a whole us of that and not something out of a lad. In his 100 plus this one yeah well so little of it when i get the saw a lot. Of a lot the local id be in another job a lot milder be. My last. Oh and the over go home on the mobile go most of. Them. Have been in that side of god out of the. Know when. I bet it i lack i say that i got some stimulus of course i never have i just. Couldnt see all this is just lies and deception were told to do this to do that if you sign this sign out of this life its all lies. Assessment what with the mind on neighborhood look like these days if it hadnt been destroyed a shot of the it would be based in light then you are then all of a catherine i used to come here often. Its all not over yet the i asked chapter 7 but who knows what might happen next in the. This isnt how mine should be so many have to get out of here. I mean i have plenty of us no real life and often yes or no lives has been one more after another war against iran war against you wait one more after another. I know you could have i would build a wall up here thats straight right i dont know. Where the bedroom will be out of all any one here when their lives at your door goes there it will make the room smaller. But i week ago i found my sons body under the rubble in the alley behind him and how we now know he was still lying there along. The line of the line i was on the line on a year ago we could only identify them by their clothes. Ollies soul rest in peace. From the now you know breast pocket he was only. A small this time he was buried there i did it threw me back a year when i thought i had found him long ago and buried him. Brought it all back its like losing everyone all over again. Or tried to flee not what about iowa spiders shot at us. Im sure a few there were 25 of us in this house. Fire department. It was and how many people have lost their lives how many are missing what about the children who cant find their parents or thousands of. Items here because of my father members of i. S. I.

I like that drive when i think about my 2 sons when i remember the way they walked and talked and as i carry their souls in my heart but theres nothing i can do this way if i were a parent i could fly away and look for them it would you where like the alley. Theres no one left my parents died so did my only brother my husband to know where my sons were all my hand only. Now i only have my 2 daughters in law and my 2 grandchildren. My house could burn down and i would live in a tent if only my children were here with me thats my only wish it was so my way that i. Remember seeing. The 1st time they were talking if. The plan is to recreate this minaret completely is that their plan is to rebuild minarik. In the same ship of this one so we have think it will probably rebuild in a different location and keep this restored as a memory. Place yeah. Bricks. But this is the most important thing this is yeah nobody touches philadelphia. This is the old mosque yeah yeah. Yeah there are some parts of it belong still. 1175 i think incredible yeah its about it had you saw. The no nobody invested. Mind. From this then its all the same it was gray and it blocks gray blocks and you dont know what yeah but you have stones they created. 800 years ago. Or more the projects are making progress but not as fast as we were hoping that one of us. Sort of a better to 6 months ago we managed to convince the u. N. To rebuild 10000 houses in the old town to hold them but you know its all taking too long at. Slow process. Or even a percent government has not provided any funds for the region on it having. A difficult one to finance the reconstruction of the hospitals and grant loans to the citizens for the reconstruction of that the 2nd him mr john the bridges must be repat and the rubble from the old city removed well get off of the magenta most of the team. Sure that shot do you really think the i. A. S. Is defeated the find is a still there. I say i dont listen to the news the recessive nation i think i gather. There were murderers in many neighborhoods. And while i mean a danger life is getting difficult. Yes a lot of times i found documents belonging to the i. R. S. As to why i handed some of them over to the Intelligence Service but i kept others off the shovel yet. I should know that this belong to them. And i asked member im a day off in my day will come any i have since that day. And i asked. This one to my luck. I. Have found it all in a bank this. Are also marriage certificates with women who came from who knows where perhaps yazidi when one mile from the job yeah yeah. I would see myself my revenge or be arrested. And this im taking revenge for everything that theyve done to us. And theyve got. A lot of those and never let me get me i dont think ive got that ive got out of the job want to go i thought i wouldnt die so. That you can do better than the time. I ask members can get death certificates but they have to pay for them. With. The same with birth certificates if youve got money you can buy whatever you want to. Have on your full stop. But of course our children will take revenge as they grow up their hatred will grow with them. Both here what do i want i want Islamic State back thats what i want. Them is it all from one day to the next deborah he was removed in several places without any of us being informed. Among them a down districts the intention was to implement a plan drawn up by a committee of expats and approved by the cabinet of the Prime Minister is that the way that. It is. And how the whole of it was the most sensible concept for the reconstruction of the old town where all the historical heritage is located. A bit which 1000 s. That one want to removing one of the yeah it was right here were worried theyre going to take the property from us. Well a lot of my dont know whats going to the senate what do you mean whats going to happen to the neighborhood. But no one will be compensated and nothing will be rebuilt. But they said that an organization would prepare everything for reconstruction apartments would be built. For just 30 years nothing has been confirmed but she. Said thats what the governor decided without him a committee of experts. That if we are dealing here with representatives of the earth orators who work without any method who make arbitrary decisions on a case by case basis. Well im actually coming out is even forbidding the heads of the old thirtys any contact with us and say them half of mana was. Men but there was a mud. Island problem all through the day of my little. Addition of. The silver just keep at it just. Be here youre in your piece now fire the poker vision for the list of you know the fate of all days for good and she decision will be all you will introduce put it here to eunice fords work before. I thank all parties especially unesco for their contribution to be ya know the minaret in my town that they call her narrate decided to clear the area under rubble which together with the rabo is cooking out a number of things. Is an activity that we cannot prevent to happen with this is at present i received the recently as you see is the river front of the cornish and it is a design which was as nothing to do with a vision of their one form of mosul is not traditional its not you its just a very hybrid thing that doesnt make much sense which is for National Standards is not acceptable at all. Well if you plot well if you pluck a day. Although. I was not that. Long. Was. One base here. This is what. One. So either one lets be honest well you know the most important question is this. I when i say anything being done to rebuild peoples lives. Lives i dont. Know sustained effective long term measures are being taken to educate and train young people. Whove been a. Player to further their abilities. Or to emancipate women nothing is being done. Yet the people of mosul will continue to suffer. And they know what i did was a lot of things lost. Their mother they are. Through that. Lets them you know they are not. Yet. The one who threw for farrakhans. Grow like the other souls rest in peace. With regard give us strength. Because well look at. The. Final answer or. The. Long. List of everyone lays the blame on these occurs again from our yes on its about but who will accept responsibility for all this. Vision i want to have a right to live. In the dump why has mosul suffered. Yeah actually i wonder still. Puzzled why i was so. How many more months. Many more years will it take to rebuild knows. How many more people will have to die before the cycle of death and destruction can be broken. Well know it will be haunted by the ghosts of the dead forever. Just once i wanted to leave the earth and feel like an astronaut. In the spanish mountains i found what i was searching for. The conditions were tough but it was worth it.
