  8. Chapter 7: Mosul
    • Mosul was the largest city ISIS held in Iraq. It was also one of the oldest cities in the world. The ancient city was once an economic center of the region, but the ongoing war in the country had taken away all its glory. After American troops being drawn back from Iraq in 2011, Mosul was seized by a terrorist group, which later became ISIS.
    • ISIS provided a rather functional government compared to corrupted Iraqi officials. The extremists provided electricity to poor area, forbidden bribes, and clean the roads. Because of its capacity to govern, ISIS quickly won supports from poor areas around the globe.
    • However, they also carried out brutal punishments. Dissidents were lashed, amputated or beheaded publicly. As the result, the group remained being feared and hated by many of its citizens.
  9. Chapter 8: The Briefcase
    • Rukmini Callimachi was a journalist whose reporting focused on Islamic State. After ISIS retreat from Mosul, she went to the city to get documents left behind by the extremist group.
    • She was companied by a translator who identified himself as Hawk, and a journalist from The New York Times.
    • The Iraqi security force allowed them to go into western Mosul and collect documents. They also sent an amour car and some armed man to protect the journalists.
    • As they drove into the city, Callimachi saw ruined buildings everywhere. She couldn't see any body, yet she could smell the stench coming from them.
    • Their destination was a church building, which later became the headquarter of ISIS. The building had already been searched. They couldn't find any files.
    • When they got out of the church, Hawk recognized some of the nearby buildings. He used to work as a translator for US forces there. After ISIS took over Mosul, Hawk’s neighbor reported him. He was taken to the buildings again to meet a religious judge. The judge threw him in jail for a night.
    • He led the journalists into one of the buildings and went on searching the rooms. He came back with a black briefcase.
    • The briefcase contained financial reports, receipts and IDs, all with ISIS logo on them. Callimachi had learned many departments of the Islamic States from the documents.
    • She was also aware that ISIS had become a self-sufficient organization. Unlike other terrorist groups, it didn't rely on donors. The self-claimed Caliphate taxed their citizen and trade with foreign forces, just like a country.
    • The reporters also found a marriage certification, which enabled them to identify the owner of the briefcase, whose name was Abu Jarrah. They also learned his family's whereabouts from the documents they obtained.
    • Callimachi and Hawk went to the hometown of Abu Jarrah. They spoke to his family, whom kept denying their relative had joined the Islamic State. However, they told Callimachi a story.
    • After the US invasion in 2003, American soldiers broke into Abu Jarrah's house. They suspected Abu Jarra's grandfather had planted a land mine in nearby road. They asked the old man to follow them, but he was too weak to stand. So they dragged him out of the house and took him way to be questioned. He was released the next day.
    • Abu Jarrah came from a wealthy family. They were respected by local people. The event was a huge humiliation of the family, which could explain why Abu Jarrah had joined the ISIS.
    • The family confirmed that Abu Jarrah was alive, but refuse to give his actual location.
