real fkn journalism! What a delight! You're a rare breed one has to search with a magnifier even today with the internet and all. You and a handfull of other journalists out there are the reason to not lose hope in humanity for me. Thanks, vice! Keep'em coming & stay awesome.
Vice, the content is magnificent, but the length of the parts are somewhat short. I think that since this documentary is so important, the videos should be a bit longer, like around 10 mins. I understand it takes a lot of time to edit but the viewers would love longer videos, just to hold us over until more stuff comes out.
Vice needs the support and consider that some people use adblocks so they don't get anything revenue from those views. Independent news media is rare as is honesty in journalism.
Ah release more, this is the first time a news report has actually caught my attention, I'm eager as hell to see what you covered, please Vice more videos like this and the cannibal warlords of Liberia, cover things the media refuses to cover.
Might have to do with file size. It may be easier to upload 4 high quality chunks of one video rather than have to compress the entire video in one file, which degrades the quality.
thanks for the insight and somewhat objektive point of view, sometimes I could like some raw material instead of the reporter telling me everything. anyway it is exciting to hear about the whole thing and the changes it have brought with it.
All this and ad revenue helps support them so they can even make these kinds of documentaries. I suppose if you sent them a big fat cheque they might consider uploading it in one chunk. But come on, you're getting a free ride, show some appreciation...
This series does a good job at humanising the Islamic and Iraq people. I am Muslim and was born in a western county and I have people be surprised that I'm Islamic and yet not a complete nut. All we need to do is spread this idea that we are all the same.
i think part of it is the fact that someone has to edit what is sometimes hundreds of hours of footage just to bring you a free documentary, and still the complainers when they seek ad revenue.
So they consider Americans to be a negative influence, but blowing each other up because of the way they interpret teachings in an ancient book is positive?
It might be for hits but it could also easily be due to attention span of the audience. For example a song is considered long if it goes more then 3 minutes. 7 minute segments are less 'intimidating' and/or perhaps able to hold attention better then a 35 minute video. Like if you see a 400 page book, it might do better as 3 170 page books because its less intimidating.
I agree. I think they do it for psychological reasons, to keep it like a tv channel, keep you comiing back, make you more familiar with them, rather than watching everything in one shot and not coming back. Also makes people more likely to subscribe, so they dont forget to look for the next part. Cynical but effective.
In 10 years? Watch Robert Fisk, John Pilger, Jon Snow's Dispatches programmes. Check out the channel for The Frontline Club. There is amazing journalism out there, and it's all at your fingertips.
It's not that that small nor that huge. Not as huge as Fox or CNN or anything, but huge enough to have its own large office with a lot of staff. I just watched a Vice video on a "behind-the-scenes" at Vice where they tour their office. Check that out.
I am not advocating religious states but showing that evil can come with non-religious states too. They don't have an organized religious state based on religion. The USSR was declared a non-religious state in fact and atheist. Us humans are one of hell of a species whether or not we are religious we seem to ruin something.
His ideas of peace and prosperity is completely different from yours in a way you can't even fathom because you didn't grow up where and with the people he did.
As I live in Finland, I have not been in any kind of checkpoint in my life. I just can't imagine that somebody would check if I have weapons, or some illegal stuff with me in my home city, unless I do something crazy. I understand that the city borders would have some checkpoints in situation like Baghdad has now. I also wonder, would there be any civil war (or whatever it's called in Iraq), if there would not be checkpoints. I thought that city cannot evolve if the transportation is slow but that doesn't seem to be problem in Baghdad. They must have really good traffic system if people can go to work or school via the checkpoints so that it doesn't take too much time. It's really funny and odd to walk from Finland to Sweden at winter. You can't even see where the border goes and nobody asks questions. I don't remember do they ever ask passport from car drivers but not very often.
"If you see a corrupt person, you must fight him and you must stand against him from the very beginning. You have to stand in his face and teach him, in case he is ignorant" - Oh the irony! Religion, you so funny!
jeans have been around since the 17th century at least. just because some dude put rivets on the pockets doesnt mean he invented them. read up on history
Government slows progress and trys to micro-manage, but fails. How come our school system is producing worse and worse grades despite ever increasing federal funding? A compeditive school system would allow for schools to adapt to technology, which are underused and under-taught in public school, and I know this i graduated 3 years ago. Ive learned more on TH-cam and Google than i had in high school. You talk about what government CAN DO. I talk about what they ACTUALLY DO.

Can't wait for part 3,,enjoying seeing how it looks now and what the people really think
So far I am loving this documentary, great job Vice!
This is what i was just searching for, Thanks vice!
such a great documentary so far. vice, you're the shit. such great work
Vice needs the support and consider that some people use adblocks so they don't get anything revenue from those views.
Independent news media is rare as is honesty in journalism.
Im really enjoying this series of episodes!
Can't wait till part 3!
This series is legit. Very good Vice!
Ah release more, this is the first time a news report has actually caught my attention, I'm eager as hell to see what you covered, please Vice more videos like this and the cannibal warlords of Liberia, cover things the media refuses to cover.
And its our duty as people from all over the world to spread journalism like this since its unbiased.
vice rules. love stuff like this. please keep it up! what about some stuff about eastern europe? serbia?
my right ear really enjoyed the Vice News transmission noises.
why are the parts so short! wheres the full version!
VICE please upload your documentaries in one part.
VICE is a huge magazine that sells all over the world. This isn't a small group of people who make youtube videos.
They're releasing one video a day I think, even though I prefer to watch parts in succession, it's better than nothing.
Because of VICE, I'm seeing a lot of countries in a whole new different perspective.
Might have to do with file size. It may be easier to upload 4 high quality chunks of one video rather than have to compress the entire video in one file, which degrades the quality.
is part 3 up yet ?
What happened to the other guys from the band ? Any follow ups ?
where are the rest of these videos?
Great, but next time upload an entire documentary in one part.
the vice intro man...hard on the ears.
Ahhh I wish they would just upload all 4 parts at once!
Iraq is so metal, even the imam is called methal
They do this to try to give out these awesome docs directly, while we are watching 2/4 one of the vice geniuses is probably creating the 3rd.
thanks for the insight and somewhat objektive point of view, sometimes I could like some raw material instead of the reporter telling me everything.

How come ads load in HD no problem but it barely loads 480P after buffering for 2 mins
Where is part 3 and 4
I can't find episode 3? ):
Yea but its grown rapidly.
I remember reading vice magazines in Montreal back in the day.
Forever killing it.
that bomb explosion was nuts u could see the air waves move so fucking fast crazy shit good video
I need to find the song they used for the intro!
suroosh alvi is back .. yayyyyyyy
The static at the start murdered my ear lol

Ok I know this is a serious matter in iraq but I lost it at 4:06 when he said "look at this fucking shit, man" lol XD
lol me too
It's far from a small group of people, check out the Vice HQ tour video they put up
Exactly, which why im on vice's leg every week!
They are actually a large magazine with over 1,000,000 youtube subscribers.
seriously wheres part 3
God, I HATE that startup audio clip - WHY do you freakin' force that on us?!
I was buggin when i read the title... I thought it read "In Sadaams Shower".
And it's a lot bigger and older than their TH-cam channel.
this is why i love vice :)
I sure hope there's a McDonalds in Part 3 or 4.
So they consider Americans to be a negative influence, but blowing each other up because of the way they interpret teachings in an ancient book is positive?
And us viewers are a part of it.
blew my fuckin speaker >.> thanks for the intro vice
I would personally rather to give my fav news source more ad revenue.
I'd rather have one large documentary. I can wait.
R.I.P all headphones users
love this

Religion is a prison for your mind.
Why do we have to wait till tomorrow :(

Good video
Forget it, he probably thinks Vice isn't biased.
God gave rock and roll to you, put it in the souls of everyone.

Of course your next card is Trash talking mom, your childish reaction telling me that Vice isn't for you, sorry did i hurt your feeling?
Proper Documentary this 1 Vice... Nice 1 XD
Was there a film on netflixs about this "heavy metal band"?

How do you know that?
CHANGE OR REMOVE THE INTRO!
its my birthday during the 10 year anniversary today

If the middle east didn't have any oil, the usa wouldn't have started wars/"helped" the citizens...
I love VICE more than anyone ;)
Mohammad, Koran or Islam in general, are no excuses for the hatred of Muslims. Period.

Seems a lot safer than before. Good. I wish the best for the Iraqi people.
Vice isn't exactly "a small group of people doing youtube videos". I see what you're saying though.
It's still free shit, so be grateful for those 7 minutes...
vice is taking over
More views is probably the reason. I know it kinda sucks but I feel vice needs that extra cash.
"If you see a corrupt person, you must fight him and you must stand against him from the very beginning. You have to stand in his face and teach him, in case he is ignorant" - Oh the irony! Religion, you so funny!
Drives me crazy when they upload one part every day... Ugh
the translation is wrong
Look at that fucking explosion 3:58
jeans have been around since the 17th century at least. just because some dude put rivets on the pockets doesnt mean he invented them. read up on history
This is great. Just as long as it doesn't turn into Iraqi hipsters doing late night munchies.

It's relatively tiny compared to mainstream media though.
Technology and culture dont require government to make progress. In fact they tend to hinder it.
GREAT REPORTING,, WELL DONE,, STAY SAFE PLEASE
Thank you, I was successful yet again
Seeing things for what they are and not for what our media portrays it as.
1:15 middle eastern Adam Sandler front and center
This is the kind of videos we want to see, we don't want videos about cats >.
Try foreign correspondent/Journeyman Pictures
True.. but these clips are not free to make. I dont really mind it.
