they don't believe syria will ever be syria again. >> rose: and you wonder where the judgment of history will be in terms of at what moment did we lose the opportunity -- we being the people, not the united states or any particular country -- lose the opportunity to stop the disintegration of a country, and as we see the disintegration of the whole culture of a region? >> there is the history that goes with it, the beauty. i think, also, most viewers, they don't understand, they didn't visit syria before this all happened, so people don't necessarily have a sense of what an incredibly beautiful -- i mean, you know -- a beautiful, sophisticated country with an incredible rich archeological heritage, you know, very educated, interesting, friendly people, incredible food, a wonderful sense of hospitality. damascus had become one of the greatest hot spots for tourists. >> rose: yeah. so this is to lose, on a humanitarian level, it's horrifying to see 250,000-plus people dead, but it's also such a huge loss in terms of that kind of a society to see it fall apart and to know there is no way of

strikes began many syria a month later. critics of the campaign say it hasn't done enough to stop the armed group operating in the region. and a series of bomb blasts at least 40 people have been killed in the past 12 -- 24 hours in kabul. the taliban has claimed responsibility for an explosion at the police academy. as temperatures soar across iraq, public discontent is also rising. iraqis are protesting against government corruption, and power shortages. the unrest has been growing across iraq in the past week, hundreds gathered on the streets southeast of baghdad, chanting and waving flags. there were similar scenes in the country's southern city, security has been stepped up to control the crowds who are angry over a wide range of issues including a lack of basic services like water, and electricity. protests were also seen on rid. protestors are vowing to keep coming out until their leaders act on their concerns. the united nations says greek must take control of what it has described as total chaos on several islands

you need identity card and reach turkish border with syria. it is slightly more complicated and more expensive from the united states. the second reason has to do with the fact in the u.s. we do not see the recruiting networks that we see in europe. i'm not saying they are completely nonexistent in the u.s. but in europe we have significantly more established and sophisticated structures of recruiting networks that do not exist in the united states. even both internet, social media to some degree, substitute itself, recruiting networks, a lot of people argue it doesn't completely substitute face-to-face interaction. you don't join isis just with a online interaction with somebody. the vast majority of the cases you join isis and other groups you have some personal connection to somebody who has connections there. the third reason, which is more of a macrolevel, has to do with very different levels of radicalization, between european and american muslim communities. i do not want to overstate the problem in europe. i think periodically when we

turkey, syria, syria policy is very unpopular so turkey and respond. i think there was an agreement, between the u.s. before. so bombing almost became a safe haven way for turkey to join the anti-islamic camp. yet you write, turkey is quite vulnerable. there are now 1300 turkish nationals fighting in syria for these young states. they are well established salafi networks and major turkish towns but i think turkey yes will go to the rally that infect islamic state poses more direct and bigger challenge than i thought. shares a long border with syria and there are too many syrian refugees. but i think the main reason is again the kurds. turkey is quite uncomfortable with a just decision to airdrop weapons and kobani. turkey decided -- in return that asked for the u.s. to establish a safe zone within syria. that is a way of common it is right in the middle of, there are three enclave in northern syria, and with the foremost, the kurds managed to link up those too. turkey has been worried that the kurds are now forming a corridor which could have access to

should do in syria? >> well, the turks for some time have argued to be setting up these humanitarian safe zones much like the united states did at the end of the first gulf war, operation northern watch operation southern watch. but it seems to me the responsibility of the world in general and the united states in particular that we can help out provide some humanitarian safe zones so the civilians can go to those areas without fear of either being attacked by el nusra and the jihadi fighters nor by the syrian fighters as well. >> yes the terrible humanitarian crisis in syria and also in iraq. general kimmit it's always good to see you, thank you. >>> the woman who was charged with the or the you torture of kayla miller the pentagon confirmed she had been killed. unsayaf is the wife of former i.s.i.l. leader ab sayaf who was killed by u.s. forces this year. she was recently turned over to iraqi kurds. >>> almost a quarter of a million people have been killed in syria p more than 12,000 children were amon

syria, is there scope for americans? the russians are urging the americans to stop pushing. >> the regime is losing and the army is starting to withdraw. -- homeland isnd about to be under attack. the homebase, think about it, is there much space to work with? if he cannot retake the suburbs after three years, what are the prospects of him being able to take on the strongholds of islamic state and places that damascus?0 miles from instead, it seems that there aboutbe a bigger question diplomatic coordination. that, in turn, will require the ians to accept the assad regime is losing and there has to be a move to get assad out. that will not move the turks and saudis along without concessions. are about to get a large amount of cash over the next 16 months and they may be willing to make the concession. i will leave that to alex. in short, the events on the ground do not suggest immediate change for american-iranian effective collaboration against islamic state in syria. thank you. >> thank you very much, robert. thank you

syria is undercutting turkey's policies in syria. the second strategic concern turkey has, closer ties between washington and iran at the expense of turkey. turkey and washington have not been on the same page in syria. they have conflicting priorities and objectives in syria. turkey has been quite upset with the obama administration policy in iraq as well. so turkey thinks that if washington and tehran, they cultivate closer ties, because of this nuclear deal, then they could, they could undercut turkey's syria policy mainly turkey has been supporting, toppling of the assad regime from the get-go, since the uprising started in march 2011. turkey has been, while late august, august 2011, turkey has been supporting the syrian opposition, and turkey become operational hub for the syrian opposition and turkey has invested heavily in the anti-assad coalition. that is turkey's strategic number of one aim in syria and yet the united states, has seen the islamic state as a threat. that is why there has been a lot of tension and washington a

erdogan is raging a two-pronged war against isil in syria and the pkk in syria and iraq. >>> syrian kurds say the government of president bashar al-assad could be a partner, if it commits itself to a democratic future. the move would be a dramatic shift for the group. zana hoda is in southern turkey with the latest. >> reporter: the syrian government is take credit for pushing out isil from the northeastern city but they didn't win this fight force, the ypg joined the battle. for years the ypg and the government controlled separate zones in the area. it was part of understanding to prevent the city from becoming yet another battleground. the ypg said cooperation was logical under the circumstances, but that only fuelled accusations from turkey and syrian opposition groups that the kurds are allied to the government. now an official from the pyd told us that the threat of terrorism, means it would partner with any group, including the syrian government if it's committed to a democratic syria. >> anyone who are ready for work for democracy, who accepts the diversity within the syrian people

in a case like syria, there needs to be a policy for syria. the president said the united states does not have a policy for syria. it leaves a vacuum, somebody else is going to fill it. it's one of the characteristics of the iranians, they have not managed the crisis with the outside layer very well. in fact, things have gotten worse, and they don't acknowledge it. i would say the u.s. ought to develop a policy for each of these conflict zones and then try to carry it out. and another thing i also mentioned at the end was, it's important to have at least the u.s. official version of what really happened, because you are not going to be able to discuss things with iran whatsoever if you're operating off to completely different sheets of music where they have almost invented a version of history that does not accord with what anybody else thinks actually happened. pushback, dialogue, or both? >> i think they have to find a balance, they did not get many commitments out of camp david. maritime security, financing oil shipments. everything we see

we and our partners should declare a no-fly zone in syria. enforce the no-fly zone and we will stop the regime's bombing raids. it can also help stop iranian flights from resupplying the regime and hezbollah and other bad actors. a no-fly zone is essential to keep the pressure on and prevent more needless death in a country that has seen so much of it. when we talk about no-fly zones in syria, precision airstrikes in iraq, or any projection of military power to meet or deter threats all of this assumes that , such power is there when we need it. yet, here as well the shortsightedness of the first -- current administration will leave a cost. we are in the seventh year of a significant dismantling of our own military. almost in inverse proportion to the threats that are multiplying. i assure you, the day that i am elected president of the united states will be the day that we turn this around and begin rebuilding the armed forces of the united states of america.

security council staple on syria. it's been one of the rare times that the united nations has been able to agree on anything syria-related. it first endorsed the new peace plan by stefan de mastour. he has had several different peace plans for syria at least two, so far none of them have gone too far. this latest one however starts pretty small. it mostly focuses on getting four key working groups together trying to bring many of the sides together at the table odiscuss key issues or key disagreements. now ban ki-moon says he is hoping that u.n. working group will begin their work as early as next month. but that's the key aspect of this u.n. security council staple endorsing this plan by de mastour. beyond that it says all sides should look at the geneva communique of 2012 and the key aspect of that was calling for a transitional governing body in syria. but as we know up until now that has not happened. >> well, the u.n. security council gave as we know has trouble on agreeing about much on syria especially on polit

this berm marks the border between syria and jordan. the refugees that we ran into were coming across the top of the berm and turning themselves in to the safety of the jordanian border officers here. more than a million have crossed into jordan so far during the three-year civil war in syria. they had been farmers, shopkeepers, office workers. now, they shared one occupation- - saving the children, with matted hair and faces covered in ten days of misery. we noticed the little ones around halima. turns out, she's the mother of nine. why did you come?
