- The harrowing, vivid story of four Iraqi soldiers’ fight against ISIS. (Aired 2017)
This journalism is made possible by viewers like you. Support your local PBS station here: www.pbs.org/donate.
In “Mosul,” FRONTLINE presented an extraordinary look at the brutal battle to drive ISIS out of Iraq’s second-largest city, which some military commanders described at the time as the deadliest urban combat since World War II.
The people of Mosul had endured the repressive rule of ISIS for more than two years. This is the story of the men who fought back - and defeated the self-proclaimed Islamic State in their stronghold. Filmed on the ground by director Olivier Sarbil over the course of the nine-month battle, “Mosul” offers a stunning look at the high cost of the Iraqi Army’s liberation of Mosul from ISIS in July 2017.

I subscribed Frontline is my favorite channel, thank you so much for posting incredible documentaries. Appreciated you hardwork.
“Please protect us”. That mother shaking over the fear of losing her children encapsulates the horror of every war
I hope they are safe.
And the fact that she was shaking because Iraqi army soldiers' were present suggests that there was much missing from documentaries like this (when no cameras were present)
The U.s killed up to 80k civilians in Iraq and another 28k in afghanistan
Anti-war Marine is an oxymoron
Islam religion is evil
I'm iraqi, i lost almost half of my friends during that war, i swear to God they were all like Amjad, brave, strong, full of life and joy, and either newly married or waiting for their first child, just like him.. we're fine now and safe because of them but it just ( till now) tears me apart whenever i remember how many Amjads we lost.. please pray for them
حلوة كلمة امجدات … ذكرتني بالماجدات 😂

I'm Iraqi and I'm proud of our Iraqi forces. We live now in peace because of their sacrifices. Thanks to all of them and Mercy and Immortality for Martyrs.

@@rusi6219Those were the Police and everyday garrisons who have no experience of a full scale war lmao
@@rusi6219 for the most part, the special forces were alright. You're talking about the Iraqi Army or Iraqi Police; they were worthless as hell. We trained tens of thousands of Iraqis and Afghans and every one of them were trash after billons were funneled to them. The only exception were those Iraqi/Afghan special mission units that worked side by side with our Tier 1-2 assets. Probably 5,000 between the lot of them across both countries.
Every single US Military man and woman who served between 2003-2020 could tell any of our politicians what was going to happen when we left in any of those years. I remember saying we were going to lose in Afghanistan way back in 2008 and Iraq in 2006. Those soldiers were not soldiers, they were bodies collecting a paycheck midnighting as terrorists.

Especially when you start a war based on lies. Preaching democracy and human rights while you torture people and live in a plutocracy/oligarchy

"They went with songs to the battle, they were young,
Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted:
They fell with their faces to the foe.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
Lest we forget"

I'll never be as brave as them or the journalist who filmed this, but I feel more grateful about the life I have now.

i wish i could use this docu. to show Americans that not all Muslims are ISIS or Al Qaeda. Many Muslims hate ISIS and other terrorist factions even more than Americans do. Americans don't know the meaning of "sacrifice" or "suffering."
So much bravery abusing and threatening children and sending them out to look for enemy snipers. They are not that different from the ISIS they are fighting against.
@@noamto I have to agree, sending civies to stick their heads out to check for snipers, and threatening to kill them is outright a war crime, when he told him he had kids and a family he points a gun to his head and says "and I don't?" nothing brave about that
@@zancudo1630 It's important to consider the context here. These individuals had the daunting task of confronting heavily fortified ISIS forces that had held Mosul since 2014. The enemy was well-prepared and their snipers were particularly elusive.
Now, regarding the individual you've mentioned, he bears a distinctive appearance with a shaven mustache and a lower beard, a style commonly associated with ISIS due to their interpretation of sunnah (the way of the prophet). It's unclear whether he adopted this look out of necessity while under ISIS control. However, there are reasons for suspicion, especially given the reported activity around his residence. It appears there was a misinterpretation in the video due to a bad translation, and I don’t know if that was intentional by the film maker. In reality, the soldier said to him, 'don't lie, we just saw him [ISIS] in the house with you’. Also, the “citizen” wearing all black raises another red flag because it’s a ISIS theme.
Furthermore, in the video, there seems to be another discrepancy in the translation. He appears to plead at the end, 'don't hold me responsible,' and adds that he has a family and is an orphan. The use of the 'orphan' card is unusual for a grown man and might raise suspicions that he is attempting to elicit sympathy.
In such a complex and uncertain situation, it's essential to approach the matter cautiously and consider all factors, but I understand your point of view, the treatment was harsh. Sad reality of war . …
For what it’s worth, one of the soldiers told him “don’t be afraid, my dear” at 31:15. 🤷
Oh and by the way, since you mentioned it, there is another miss translation. He didn’t say ‘and I don’t?’. The “citizen” said to him in Arabic ‘I am friend with a family’ which could absolutely mean that he had a family, but he didn’t mention kids, and the soldier replied with smirky comment ‘am I friend of pimps?’. It was NOT ‘and I don’t?’. The “citizen” then replied ‘no, God forbid’, NOT ‘no, no sorry’.

Just raw, unadulterated bravery by these Iraqi Special Forces soldiers. I hope they survived and learning to deal with the post traumatic stress of combat. Luckily, Iraq is a very family oriented country and it gets you through it, esp when you are fighting for a cause.
🇮🇶The Golden Division lost half of its fighters, both martyred and wounded, but they were very brave. This pure nature is divine from God Almighty, and it is the courage and zeal of the Iraqi individual. Now the door to apply for Iraqi Special Forces students has been opened again. Long live Iraq.
The soldiers and the Iraqi people have a heart of rock, they enter into battle and come out happy and victorious safe from mental illnesses Men who are not shaken by mountains If it was not for betrayal, they would have eliminated Isis a long time ago, but they were let down a lot
At least the Iraqis fought back and continue to restabilize the country.

Great documentary even though it's dated. What I would like to see is a follow up with the soldiers and how their lives have changed after the defeat of ISIS
A pure Propaganda video to whitewash the killings of thousands of civilians in Mosul by the coalition. Pure Propaganda.
Up to 20 000 civilians were killed there. Hidden afterwards.
Many adults in Iraq suffer some sort of ptsd. This is due to the countries constant state of war.
My family members, relatives and friends who fought isis were not same after the war ended. Most of them are still serving. As for me, thier are signs of ptsd or something. After the war, I'm no longer interested in sports, politics or socializing. It turned me into in intorvert.
@@fogshadow9112 I'm sorry to hear that my dear, there must be people who you can reach out to who suffer from the same sort of PTSD. What people don't understand is that our brains are like a sponge it'll absorb all that we see hear and smell, people who lived through decades of conflict are usually withdrawn they have that empty stare in their eyes as if no emotion exists as if they are part of the walking dead "so to speak" People also don't understand that you don't have to be in the military and have seen combat to suffer from PTSD anyone who is put in a place that is common for us to understand our brain absorbs these terrifying images, the sights, the sounds even the smell of death burns a hole in our noses, every time we close our eyes the images of horror plays over and over as if we are in a constant nightmare that never ends because our minds have been exposed to the most horrific images unimaginable. I pray that God almighty will comfort you in your time of despair that you will know peace again and that he will send a helper to you so you may enjoy your life and not to live in fear or dismay. Please seek help for yourself that you may be at peace. May God bless you and keep you all the days of your life.
@fogshadow9112 I'm very sorry. I've often wondered about PTSD in Iraqi civilians, but there really isn't any information about it on UA-cam. Lots of info about US troops experience, but none about the people in the Middle East.

Although it is terribly sad that this is the situation in Iraq, I am so incredibly proud of these Warriors who I may have met as children taking up the job of defending their great Nation! So fucking proud of them!
رحم الله الشهداء لن ننسى تضحياتكم من اجل أن نعيش بسلام أنا من الموصل و عشت كل هذه الأحداث و شكرا لابطال الجيش العراقي البطل
I was with the first US troops in Mosul after our Shock & Awe bombing campaign lifted. We were the first Americans the residents of Mosul had seen. They thought we had X-ray vision in our goggles and didn’t yet realize we bled too.
The city was calm for the most part, until the Bush administration disbanded the Ba’ath Party and all hell broke loose, which still continues to this day. It breaks my heart.
May God be with those in Mosul.
Any luck finding those WMDs? 😂 Where's your personal responsibility in this shit show? Or was it all just the fault of administration? I'll remind you plenty of people knew this war was baloney from the beginning and were labeled unpatriotic by jingoists like yourself.
Your country made isis
@@madrettor0108 no, his country tried to make the Iraqi army, without US airpower this army will collapse.

I’ve only watched the intro so far but that was the craziest opening I’ve ever seen. Kudos to the director
Truly impressive job capturing the realness of what is not seen by the majority. Mosul is and has been such a unique and challenging city landscape. The massiveness of this city makes it near impossible to control the movement in and out of persons, vehicles and equipment. The city also being split in two by the Tigris river having 5 primary bridges I remember very well. Watching this shown in this manner really took me back two decades ago with memories.
Really appreciate the work that it takes to have this true representation of the environment.
هل زرت الموصل في الماضي ؟
انا من هذه المدينة

The shaking terrified mother, Amjad's pained heart.
It's fucking horrible and so saddening. I wish I could do something, truly.
رحم الله شهدائنا الأبرار شيعة علي أمثال أمجد وأنور والآلاف من بواسلنا ورجال هذا البلد اللذين دافعوا عن أعراضنا وأرضنا في سبيل العيش في أمان في وطننا .. ولعن الله المتخاذلين والخونه والمنافقين اللهم آمين.
I am Yazidi from Şengal. Long live his Iraqi forces
What a documentary! Thank you form sharing this.
Thank you for this extraordinary documentary. It is one of the most touching hearbreaking films on Mosul.I have seen. I feel like I got know these men, and mourn the dead...and the living.
This is the best journalism I've ever seen.
They seem better trained now than when I was there before. I hated some of the Iraqi officers back then 'cause of how they talked down on their soldiers saying things like "They're only good for making tea". Iraqi people are so nice and friendly, it's so warming whenever I meet them and even in the US. When I was there though only the Shiites were nice to us but I have nothing against the Sunnis. When I was there though the biggest issue wasn't even the Coalition forces against the insurgents, it was mostly the Sunnis and Shiites fighting each other, I really hope Iraq can find its peace. God bless Iraq!
