Who were they? 0013 00:02:24:02 00:02:28:07 Where did they come from? What did they want? 0014 00:03:24:02 00:03:27:05 They come here... 0015 00:03:27:08 00:03:31:21 ...to kill in the name of Islam. If I don't kill them... 0016 00:03:31:24 00:03:34:17 ...they will kill me and my people. 0017 00:03:50:04 00:03:53:12 IS attacked our country. 0018 00:03:53:15 00:03:57:21 That's when I decided to go to Kobani to defend it. 0019 00:04:03:19 00:04:07:21 They're attacking civilians. 0020 00:04:10:23 00:04:14:16 They destroy everything and they're beheading people. 0021 00:04:15:01 00:04:20:03 They kidnap women and sell them as sex slaves. 0022 00:04:24:10 00:04:29:01 Those inhuman activities... 0023 00:04:29:05 00:04:31:05 ...had a big impact on me. 0024 00:04:52:06 00:04:55:10 Snipers like to be alone. 0025 00:04:55:13 00:05:04:02 They are assertive and work on their own. 0026 00:05:08:00 00:05:10:17 I'm good at aiming... 0027 00:05:11:14 00:05:14:23 ...and I'm patient. 0028 00:05:17:22 00:05:28:20 To be a good sniper you have to have those qualities. 0029 00:05:48:13 00:05:52:09 As soon as I'm all set up... 0030 00:05:52:12 00:05:56:06 ...I try to guess the distance between myself and my enemy. 0031 00:05:56:09 00:06:03:08 A sniper has to be good at math. 0032 00:06:03:11 00:06:07:04 For example the distance, the speed of the wind... 0033 00:06:07:07 00:06:09:11 ...the walking speed of the enemy... 0034 00:06:09:14 00:06:15:14 You have to know those things in order to be effective. 0035 00:06:18:09 00:06:26:16 I don't have any equipment to calculate those things. 0036 00:06:26:19 00:06:32:06 I trust my instincts to calculate everything. 0037 00:07:14:21 00:07:23:03 If someone is running you have to shoot in front of them. 0038 00:07:26:18 00:07:33:01 If I calculate this right, the bullet and the person collide. 0039 00:07:38:21 00:07:44:11 After I've shot them I check their bodies. 0040 00:07:44:14 00:07:48:03 Sometimes they turn out to be children. 0041 00:07:48:06 00:07:51:05 But I didn't know that. 0042 00:07:52:24 00:07:59:17 I had no choice. If I hadn't shot them, they would've killed me. 0043 00:07:59:20 00:08:04:11 Of course that upsets me. It makes me sad. 0044 00:08:11:21 00:08:16:18 Of course they haunt me in my nightmares. 0045 00:08:44:07 00:08:46:13 It's going to be OK. 0046 00:09:50:21 00:09:53:24 You are always welcome here. - Thanks. 0047 00:10:47:02 00:10:51:16 My dreams are over. But I want a better life for generations to come. 0048 00:10:51:19 00:10:57:03 The things I've been through I wouldn't wish on anyone. 0049 00:10:57:06 00:11:02:00 The next generation deserves a better life, especially the children. 0050 00:11:02:03 00:11:07:04 They should speak their own language and live in their own culture.
