NEW REPORTS INDICATE THAT IRAQIS ARE DRIFTING...
THEIR CARS.
CURRENTLY THERE ARE YOUNG PEOPLE LIVING IN PLACES LIKE MOSUL
WHO WANT TO MAKE A POINT THAT THEIR WAR-TORN COUNTRY
ISN'T ALL ABOUT WAR.
IN FACT, THERE'S A GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS WHO LOVE DRIFTING
THEIR FANCY, SOUPED-UP CARS, AND TO GET TOGETHER AND TEACH KIDS
HOW TO DRIVE CARS; THEY RAISE MONEY TO HELP KIDS LEARN
HOW TO DRIVE CARDS.
MOSUL WAS SEIZED BY ISIS IN 2014, BUT THE GOVERNMENT HAS
BEEN TRYING TO RECLAIM THE CITY SINCE LAST FALL.
VIDEO BUFFERING ñ
NOW, ONE PERSON WHO IS PART OF
THIS ORGANIZATION, HE'S A
DRIFTING EVENT ORGANIZER, SAYS, " WE'RE TRYING TO TAKE THIS
TALENT, AT LEAST, AND GRAB ATTENTION AND TELL THE PEOPLE
THAT THERE'S A LOT HAPPENING IN OUR COUNTRY; MORE THAN JUST
SHOOTING AT WARS."
THAT WAS A QUOTE THAT WAS GIVEN TO BUZZ FEED, AND THEN
PROMPTLY AFTER THAT ISIS STARTED DRONING THE AREA THAT THEY
WERE DRIFTING THEIR CARS IN...
WHICH SUCKS.
AYE...
BUT I LIKE THAT THEY WERE TRYING TO BRING SOME POSITIVITY TO
THE AREA, AND THEY HAVE SOME YOUTUBE VIDEOS UP.
THEY ARE REALLY WELL PRODUCED, SO HERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF
ONE OF THEM.
ALL RIGHT, SO - BY THE WAY, MUSIC FROM THAT PART OF THE
WORLD IS BETTER THAN MUSIC FROM ANYWHERE ELSE.
YOU'RE SO PRO MIX A LYDIAN SCALE.
I WAS LIKE, THERE'S A CHANCE THAT SHE MIGHT JUST PLAY A
CLIP FROM TOKYO DRIFT.
AT THAT POINT I WAS WAITING FOR VIN DIESEL TO JUST BE LIKE,
YEAH...
FIRST OF ALL, THE LINKS TO THE WHOLE VIDEO WILL BE IN THE
DESCRIPTION BOX WHEN WE PUT THIS VIDEO UP.
2ND OF ALL, I AM SO UNCOOL.
I WAS LIKE, I KNOW THAT DRIFTING IS SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE DO WITH
THEIR CARS, BUT I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS.
DON'T TRY IT.
HE CAN'T EVEN PURCHASE PART ñ
PARKED HIS CAR PROPERLY, CAN YOU IMAGINE HIM DRIFTING?
THE OVER UNDER ON CARS THAT I WOULD HIT IS LIKE 7 1/2.
NOW, ONTO THE SUBSTANCE OF THIS VIDEO, IT'S TOTALLY MISSION
ACCOMPLISHED BECAUSE IT MADE ME FEEL SO MUCH BETTER ABOUT HER
IRAQ.
LIKE, THERE ARE FOLKS THERE THAT ARE STILL LIVING
THEIR
LIVES.
LIKE, WHY HAVEN'T YOU GOTTEN OUT OF DODGE OR MOSUL?
I WOULD THINK I WOULD TRY TO GET OUT OF MOSUL AS SOON AS I COULD
IF I HAD THAT MONEY, BUT I'M GLAD THAT THEY STAYED, AND
THESE ARE THE FOLKS THAT ARE GONNA REBUILD THE CITY ONCE
WE GET RID OF THE SCOURGE OF ISIS.
AND IT'S WEIRD TO THINK OF PEOPLE THAT MODERN ñ AND I GET
IT, BECAUSE ACTUALLY IRAQIS TO BE VERY SECULAR, AND WAS FAR
MORE ALONG THE PATH OF MODERNITY BEFORE WE INVADED IRAQ, AND
HIM HAD THE FUNDAMENTALISM AND ALL THE WARS, AND ISIS, AND ETC.
IT'S GOOD TO SEE IT WITH YOUR OWN EYES, BUT IT'S WEIRD HERE IN
AMERICA TO SEE GUYS LIKE THAT THAT ARE SO MODERN, IN THE MIX
OF ISIS OPERATED TERRITORY.
IT'S WEIRD BECAUSE ALL WE'VE SHOWN IS THE DESPAIR AND THE
DEVASTATION, AND THAT PLACE AND THE HATE FILLED IDEOLOGY THAT
THESE PEOPLE ARE JUST TRYING TO KILL EACH OTHER, NONSTOP.
AND THAT LEADS TO THE MISCONCEPTION THAT IT'S A
RELIGION LEADING TO ALL OF THIS, AND IT IS NOT ñ
THAT THERE IS NOT JUST PEOPLE THERE THAT ARE TRYING TO
LIVE THEIR EVERYDAY LIVES.
I DON'T KNOW YOU'RE SAYING THAT THESE PEOPLE HAVE THE MONEY
THERE, MAYBE THEY SHOULD MOVE OUT, BUT YOU'VE GOT TO THINK
ABOUT, IF YOUR HOMETOWN WAS GOING THROUGH THIS DISRUPTION ñ
THIS DESTRUCTION, I KNOW YOU DON'T WANT TO JEOPARDIZE
YOUR LIFE AND YOU WANT TO BE SAFE, BUT THIS IS THEIR AREA.
THE ONLY WAY TO REALLY DRIVE OUT ALL THIS HATE AND EVIL IS BY
SHOWCASING THAT IT'S NOT AN OVERALL RELIGION THAT'S CAUSING
THIS, AND THAT THERE'S REAL PEOPLE THERE THAT ARE AFFECTED.
YOU TAKE IT CASE-BY-CASE.
FOR EXAMPLE, THERE'S REASON WHY DONALD TRUMP DOES NOT COMMENT ON
THE QU…BEC SHOOTING, BECAUSE IT WAS NOT COMMITTED BY A MUSLIM,
AND THAT IDEOLOGY PASSES OVER FROM THAT ñ FROM WHAT EVERYONE
ASSUMES WHEN THAT HAPPENS.
SO THE MORE THAT YOU PROMOTE THINGS LIKE THIS, THAT THERE'S
REAL PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT ARE JUST TRIED TO GO ABOUT
THEIR EVERYDAY LIFE ñ
I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE GOING TO GET THROUGH TO THESE NAœVE
INDIVIDUALS THAT ASSUME IT'S ONLY MUSLIMS THAT CAUSE TERROR,
BUT EVERY LITTLE BIT CAN PLAY A PART IN CHANGING PERCEPTION.
THE ONLY DEPICTION WE SEE OF MUSLIMS IN THE MEDIA IS OF, YOU
KNOW, PEOPLE WHO ARE FUNDAMENTALISTS, OR PEOPLE
WHO MIGHT BE DEEMED VIOLENT.
OR EVEN IF THEY'RE NOT DEEMED VIOLENT, MUSLIMS AND AMERICANS
CAN'T RELATE TO IN ANY WAY.
SLACK ñ SO I THINK THAT LISA THAT US VERSUS THEM
MENTALITY THAT A LOT OF US HAVE; THEY ARE DIFFERENT THAN US.
NO, THEY ARE JUST LIKE US.
THERE WAS A GREAT ARTICLE IN THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER ABOUT LA LA
LAND.
YOU KNOW THERE WAS ONE PERSON LOOKING AROUND AT THESE PEOPLE
WITH THEIR HUMMERS, BUT LIKE, WHERE WAS THAT HUMMER WHEN
WE WERE FIGHTING ISIS?
I'M SURE SOMEONE WAS LIKE, COOL CAR BUT WHERE WERE YOU?
I'M SURE HIS ANSWER WAS, I WAS IN THE ARMY.
BUT TO BRETT'S POINT, WHEN ISIS ATTACKED, THEY TOOK MOSUL FAIRLY
EASILY, BECAUSE THE IRAQI ARMY DID NOT CARE SO MUCH THAT THEY
NOT ONLY THREW DOWN THEIR WEAPONS, BUT THEY THREW
DOWN THEIR UNIFORMS.
THEY LEFT THEIR UNIFORMS BEHIND AND RAN, BUT THE REAL REASON
BEHIND THAT IS NOT BECAUSE THE GUYS IN THE HUMMERS ARE HIDING.
THAT WAS A JOKE, TO BE FAIR.
IT'S BECAUSE WE SPLIT UP THE RACK ALL WRONG.
IN FACT, WE PUT THEM TOGETHER ALL WRONG, AND SO WHEN YOU HAD
--
VIDEO BUFFERING ñ
TO THE FRANCIS POINT ABOUT MUSLIMS, ONE GUY IN THERE WAS
TALKING ABOUT THE EDE, WHICH IS ONE OF THE MUSLIM HOLIDAYS.
SO YOU LOOK AT THOSE THINGS AND THINK, THEY MUST NOT BE
MUSLIM BECAUSE THEY LOOK MODERN.
NO, THEY ARE MUSLIM AND THEY ARE ABOUT TO CELEBRATE A MUSLIM
HOLIDAY, BUT RIGHT BEFORE THEY WANT TO DRIFT THEIR HUMMERS.
HUMMER SOUNDS FUNNY TO ME EVERY TIME.
NORMALLY, MO' MONEY, MO' PROBLEMS, BUT IN THIS CASE, MO'
MONEY MO' MOSUL.
