The front hoses are collapsed on the inside.Is there a bracket around the front hoses? if there is that's your issue, rust builds up in the bracket and squeezes the hose shut.
Try disconnecting the brake hose from the line side in stead of off the caliper. Have a helper press the brake pedal softly. Wearing safety goggles watch for fluid.. If visible than lines are clogged and the whole system needs to be bled properly to rid any other foreign bodies out of the lines. Replace all hoses accordingly.
