Hunting ISIS: Tracking Down the Worlds Most Infamous Terrorists | Witness | ISIS Documentary
At the Al-Roj camp in Syria, hundreds of women and children live in squalid conditions while the world decides what to do with them. They are the wives and children of ISIS fighters, captured when the caliphate fell. Among them are hundreds of westerners who desperately want to come home. For the moment, there is little indication of that happening. But what about the fighters who weren’t captured?
It’s estimated that half of the foreign fighters who left Europe to join ISIS have already returned to their countries of origin. Posing as refugees or travelling on fake passports, others were able to flee the caliphate for the West and rebuild new lives. But a handful of men are on a mission to find them.
Ahmad Ramadan, 33, leads a secret network aimed at tracking down these former jihadists and holding them to account for their crimes. Today, he’s on the trail of a fighter believed to be now living in Germany. A video provided by an informer shows him training as a truck driver. Thanks to this network, high profile members, like jihadi spokesman Abdul Kader el Raqqaoui, have been arrested in Europe. But the members themselves pay a heavy price and are themselves the target of ISIS reprisals.

    Doesn’t surprise me one of the doctors behind the operation is israeli and IN Israel not held accountable. All those thousands of “legal” operations he did were most likely with stolen palestinian kidneys. They have a horribly grim and long history of organ donation exploitation of palestinians.

    19:18 Aspergers is an outdated term. As a diagnosed person I find the term disrespectful because of what Asperger did. You could instead say: he has autism with low-support needs. Or just say he has autism because it’s a spectrum so most people know everybody experiences autism differently. Context: Hans Asperger supported the eugenic Nazi- policy and that this eugenics seeped through his work. With his work he dived autistic children into functional and non-functional. The functional children (the 'little professors', as he called them) could be put to work for the Nazi- regime. He sent the non-functional children to the Am Spiegelgrund clinic, a clinic near the place where he worked. There, almost 800 children with disabilities have been ab*sed and m*rdered in horrific ways. There is evidence that Asperger knew the consequences of what he did and with that he has the murder of at least 42 children on his conscience. Probably more.

    My exhub had a heart tx in 07 and since then, ive come to know many tx patients, including lung and a recent kidney. This topic is really complex... i fully understand the desperation that comes w a failing organ and certain death. Most of us would do ANYTHING to save our loved one. What i know is this: when demand greatly exceeds supply, a black market is inevitable. I dont see it as black and white as the prosecutor states. Its not only greed; if the impoverished benefit too, everybody wins, no ???? As long as the world is capitalistic, there will be poverty. Maybe Capitalism is the evil. Prosecute that.!
