A rebel coalition in Syria took the central city of Hama on Thursday. The city's capture is a strategic and symbolic victory for opposition forces. The rebel coalition that took the city is called Hay'at Tahrir Al Sham, and it's led by Abu Mohammed al-Jolani. Host Carolyn Beeler speaks with journalist and filmmaker Martin Smith about his 2021 film "The Jihadist," which features Jolani and follows his efforts to rule over a rebel enclave in the northwestern part of Syria.
