In Saddam's Shadow with Suroosh Alvi: Baghdad 10 Years After the Invasion (Part 3/4)

[@Devilock79]

Keep up the good work Suroosh, your documentaries are some of the best I've seen.

[@MrBrg234]

Gratz on getting vice on HBO cant wait for the series to start! good job vice :)

[@ArrecBarrwin]

This series is incredible, thank you Vice!

[@Aceswild269]

Enjoyed the series,, defiantly looking forward to more. And episode 4 is on the vice web page.

[@Mybitchcat1987]

thanks for the upload!

[@tigerclaw1000]

Awesome work guys, you always provide people with good insight to things. keep it up, more report on important issues Humanity needs you!

[@CjamesS118]

thanks, it gave me something good to read while waiting for the video to load in 1080p. 3/4 stars

[@Nicholas-yi6rl]

very interesting series. Pls make more videos like this. Good job guys

[@metaphysikz101]

I forgot to add how brave I feel he is to partake in this interview with out altering his appearance or having his face blurred.

[@DavidScottDavene]

Great work! Thank you for reporting.

[@smartmonkey777]

Let me start by saying i am not normally impatient, but release the rest of this show!!!

[@taylorcarlson8537]

I don't think it was a good idea to show this activists face. He might face repercussions in the future because of this documentary. They should have blurred his face as they did for the other activists there.

[@SBiRAHNI]

Notice how you tube is the only window open on all screens during this documentary lol

[@willdegraw]

Vice, thank you for your dedication to the public.

[@Unhitable1]

they release one every day

[@qbed1852]

Heavy metal band 1:14 , Still sticking to culture "I think it is tea time" LOL so true.

[@solheights]

The sound used in the intro is an old computer modem connecting via a telephone line.

[@AiDeed1992]

(cont)....In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was his fight against the Jewish poison. Today, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed his blood upon the Cross....(TBC)

[@_chip]

great stuff guys

[@BonesTheCat]

Gotta throw respect to people living under such threats but continuing to be what they are.

[@Frühobst]

thanks vice for this documentation.

[@MAXIMUMinHD]

I really like your take on the problems in Iraqi, you do not disregrad same subcultures, which may the hardest hit in the very religious and conservative society. Thanks for the cevering and I hope to see much more in the future.

[@moearabi]

Keep up your work man! Your work brings awareness to the westerns watching this. It's ironic how leaders of America say that they wanted to free iraq and rebuild it when in fact this series shows a different story.

[@gekkosan]

Hitler was an roman catholic and he often spoke about his beliefs in his speeches, and muslims yelling "allahu akbar" is essentially the same as "oh my god".

[@thesameasyoursasisaid9567]

Keep rocking guys, you have definite potential and music can change the world.

[@smaIIkid]

Guys, part 4 is on their website..

[@Bones98]

Dog-Faced Corpse is a cool band. Hopefully they can record their full length album in a pro studio.

[@Drelam]

I guess part 4 isn't uploaded yet?

[@delanski2012]

These guys a really good as well..They really know how to play the instruments.

[@MotherGrits]

i truly hope these men aren't subjecting themselves to more danger by being interviewed.

[@joker12346969]

Whats wrong with the intro sound it makes it sound more like a radio broadcast

[@iGavid_Doggins]

anyone noticed that the views are allways stuck at 301 views for a while

[@JohnnysChingaderas]

the drummer is like "play as quiet as possible..."

[@bikefreak40379]

part 4 kab aa raha hai?

[@flamex999]

By the way before people bash me, I have had a Muslim girlfriend and have many friends who are Muslim. I am an immigrant who is half Muslim.

[@kylemacmillan652]

Thank you!

[@majinjared]

Is there no part 4?

[@VM-SG]

So where is part 4?

[@ph0pe]

The cat is like "If not for sits, why made of warm?"

[@delanski2012]

I like this guy Waleed. You hear the language and you think its not safe, but they are people too. No different from me and you. Most of them want the freedom we enjoy, but they are not allowed.

[@dsmluck]

Bizarre seeing this. We were briefed in 2006 when taking over control of the Ghazaliya and Shuala neighborhoods in western Baghdad about an active serial killer named the dog-faced killer. Story is legit. The band must be from that area.

[@Apexer86]

I like that static this is the news intro sound.

[@eddysplosion]

This is heart breaking

[@VS24AT]

Where is 4 of 4 ?

[@bakedinspiration]

I hope people in the future go out side and feel the rain.

[@BurntF3aceMan]

"I think its tea time" SO FUCKING HARD CORE

[@huamanJR]

It's not that there is anything wrong with it, but it's the moral of the people who lose motivation to actually do something about it. I can tell you I have seen the same pothole every time I visit Peru and nobody hasn't claimed it to be fixed. Yet here in the US you can go to the Town Hall and they will get somebody out there to fix the problem. If you wanna succeed you don't play fire with fire; you play fire with water. Get ahead and make the move.

[@DataSe7en]

Can someone please tell me another youtube news channel thats similar to VICE

[@MaisterRaebbit]

Please change the Intro sound... Please!!!

[@RougeWaterPoloPlayer]

"This is the first interview with you"- Make that your motto vice. Do it. Explore the unexplored. Go way the off the beaten path.

[@dantendo2]

Why are they using golf ball detectors at the end?

[@FlyingP4dre]

It's legal adoption, not human trafficking.

[@growsomedank]

Oh please, the French never stood a chance when the socialists next door decided to take them. It was the Brits who stood up to it. Europeans have even let their governments take their guns away. That is a huge sign of weakness

[@Nanoc.]

You make me remember a episode of family guy where Brian and Stewie enter an alternate universe of Earth without religion, surprisingly, Mankind was much more technologically advanced because without the religious purges, prosecution of scientists, ect technological advances have been made unhindered. The best example would be the Great Library of Alexandria, if it had not been burned down, we would've already learned basic algebra and would not have to rediscover it hundreds of years later.

[@FlyingP4dre]

I'm not playing with words. Gay couples go to the same adoption agencies and are held to the same criteria (if not more strict) for potential parents as straight couples. Are you saying any form of adoption if human trafficking? In that case you're playing with words, and not just misspelling Iraq.

[@mikhailman]

ALSO in 1493, the papal bull, Inter Caetera by Pope Alexander VI granted these rights to Spain in the New World (the Americas and parts of the Pacific). Also came slavery, mostly of Africans brought to Hispanola, Cuba and other islands and Central and South America where indigenous people starved themselves to death rather than be taken into slavery.

[@BlindWhiskeyGumball]

Suroosh Alvi is the fucking man! Best docs on Vice! Keep it up!!!

[@KnarkPekka]

"whats your opinion?" "i think its tea time!"

[@tobiassrensen5754]

...Can you provide evidence for that?..

[@growsomedank]

I'm considered a "Libertarian". All i want is the government out of my life, free markets, and also ending the war on drugs. It's the small government and free markets that made the US such a great place, and now our population is leaning towards socialism. its terrible

[@oLazid]

love vice

[@mikhailman]

"Obviously"? A kid will turn out absolutely normal. Look up the statistics of gay marriages, what kind of kids they have. All the child needs in a family is love. Doesn't matter if both parents are male or female. He will learn toleration and multiculturalism most likely. NOTHING negative can come out of that. The child WONT become gay since it is NOT a choice (as you've wrongly mentioned). There is gay activity in animal kingdom, so it's absolutely natural for ~10% of population to be gay.

[@mikhailman]

and what is exactly bad in ANYTHING you've mentioned?

[@T0MZ0]

Only 7 minutes, Come on VICE.

[@robto]

You'r right man. They should depict more the life on the streets and interview more ordinary people. This metalheads seem to be part of the upper middle class, they not represent the majority of the Iraqi people.

[@CallusDnb]

Exactly!! They even used to give out free Vice magazines in clothes shops. Everyone uses adblock nowadays so they don't even make much off Adsense. Free, quality content; what more do people want? For Vice to pay us for watching their documentaries?

[@Hedgpig]

This shows no matter where you go in the world, people will hate people and cats will rub their butts on anything you're trying to use

[@colonialmarineavp]

He was raised a catholic by his parents, but it is unknown how he was as an adult.

[@vluggejaapie1000]

- You are twisting my words, this is what I actually said: ''The civil in Iraq had it's roots by the US government, military and CIA who organised death squads of up to 10,000 men for the purpose of sowing terror among the Iraqi population in an effort to defeat the Iraqi resistance.'' - So in other words, Divide & Conquer.

[@SponzifyMee]

The problem with religion is not people worshipping or believing in something, it's when people follow the words of preachers blindly. How one man can preach about how a mass of people should behave and act "because god says so".

[@tebmenja]

Need 4

[@mikhailman]

catholic church abolished slavery in it's ranks while being under pressure by secular societies, contradicting it's (catholic) own religious texts which actually promote slavery. I was talking about "mental slavery" (no argumentative thoughts, no argument, dogmatic views). So it seems to me that you've missed my point. You have a right to believe what you want, but at least acknowledge the FACT that organized religion is a corrupt political system where there is no appeal "in the eyes of god"

[@reezzavy]

As an iraqi who lives in the west...I approve this message.

[@LysergikFuneral]

When I saw that they have annoying cats in Iraq, I realized we're all the same.

[@vector6977]

the drummer with the ADIAS track jacket rules! Set up a fund to buy him a new kit!

[@TheProtagonistDies]

Risk their lives to bring top quality content? Risk their lives? Thats just another day in the office. No one makes them "risk" their lives. They chose this path and since their cool with "risking" their lives for documentary purposes, at least give longer parts than 7mins. A 30min 2 part documentary would be more understandable...

[@Born2Ready]

I'd say it's somewhat comparable to alcohol in that sense, yet alcohol is responsible for things that are far worse. Drunk driving, families literally being broken up, homelessness spousal abuse, gambling, people literally giving up every dime they have for another sip. And yet it's legal because it's culturally ingrained into most western society.

[@drummerrrrrrrrrr]

Marijuana isn't cheap due to the laws that surround it. It would probably be the most abundant plant around if it wasn't constantly eradicated. It's an extremely versatile plant that can be grown with little to no effort/investment. You have to say the same about alcohol (unless you are a hypocrite, which it seems you may be). The only difference is that alcohol is extremely harmful, psychologically and physically addictive, and causes 2.5 million deaths a year.

[@P4INKiller]

That's a modem from hell.

[@biggleswerth88]

read the description... "Part 4 coming tomorrow."

[@voiceovquayin]

i had an idea about an episode..since you were intervewing bands from iraq..there is a black metal band from that area that is actually fronted by a woman. No one has alot of info on her and she never posts photos of herself for fear of getting targeted..could make for an interesting interview

[@Brinstar90]

You people at vice should do a documentary on the Sentinelese people.

[@TheProtagonistDies]

I agree man. But it just sucks to know that our entertainers no longer entertain us for the passion. But for our wallets...

[@MegaPISSTITS]

Lets hope that nobody who was interviewed by vice gets killed after the fanatics sees this.

[@sername888]

from the description... Part 4 coming tomorrow.

[@vluggejaapie1000]

yeah, that's like totally your department. Which comment are you referring to ?

[@lazyguy348]

All these people (metal heads/gays/others) might as well leave. Whats the point in living in constant fear that some day you are going to be murdered because of who you are...

[@joey5395]

i miss the old vice where everything was one big video

[@10pound]

Suroosh and/or Vice crew: Was Mr. Ali Al-Hafez at all concerned about speaking to you so openly, with none of the typical measures taken (blurring his face out, changing his voice) to conceal his identity? I realize it would be somewhat non-productive to be an "unknown activist" but he must be under a lot of scrutiny and threat of death.

[@aguythatisasa]

Read the description box: "Part 4 coming tomorrow"

[@Drixtu]

Never thought I'd see a Hammerfall t-shirt in iraq. Blew my mind.

[@libertycaps666]

that metal band were dope.. drummer had some nice blast beats

[@bart-uzi-yak]

"Is a bowlschitt" XD

[@CallusDnb]

They're not that bad, I dont have adblock. I click on the video, advert comes up, says 'skip advert in 3..2..1..' skip advert, and that's it. I used to hate adverts until I realised, if there was no adverts, there would be a subscription fee. Fuck that.

[@P4INKiller]

"You can't learn me anything" It would appear so.

[@Liferruinerr]

OMG superb blastbeat at 2:29

[@theelmokiller]

Its on their website

[@Auror420]

wait... so youre tellin me that people that arent americans can play instuments that arent american really well. wow im amazed!

[@gts1067]

yo that metal band shreds dog face corpse get them in a nice studio asap like we did with buena vista social club

[@SovietButcher]

Too late, we got you!
