- Jack, you're going to do the talking? - Yeah.
- Wait a second, wait a second... -Your bro... Your brother tried to kill me, you rat.
I didn't... Don't, don't tell them
about the pieces that you have inside of you.
- Not yet. - Not yet.
Only if you really get friendly with him.
That's the last piece left.
Right there.
That's the last piece of this guy's brother.
As far as I know.
- Of organic shrapnel? - Of organic shrapnel.
- No jiving around. - I know.
The Tel Aviv promenade is, once again,
the scene of blood and ruins, early this morning,
as the suicide bomber blew himself up at Mike's Place,
a nightclub situated just a few meters
from the heavily-guarded American Embassy,
killing three people and injuring 55 others.
People inside the crowded club
were listening to a live jazz performance
when the bomb went off, setting the place on fire,
shattering the windows, and leaving only broken glass
and twisted metal hanging from the ceiling.
Mike's Place was not only
the target of the terrorists,
it was also the focus of a film in the making.
Jack Baxter, one of the film's directors,
arrived here from New York last month.
He was also badly wounded in the attack and is still in hospital.
The picture that one gets of Mike's Place
is the best example, I think, of Israeli society.
A free and open society.
One of those interviewed extensively for the film
was 29-year-old Dominique Hass.
Immediately after the explosion, Gal, the owner of the pub,
found her on the floor lying against the wall.
She was missing a hand, but was still conscious.
She later died en route to hospital.
My mom would call me and ask me, "Are you okay?"
I'm like, "Yeah, why?" "There was just a bomb in Tel Aviv!"
I'm like, "Oh, really?"
The pub's security guard, Avi Tabib,
was severely wounded in the bombing.
Thanks to his actions, preventing the bomber from entering Mike's,
a much greater massacre was averted.
Neighbors of Asif Hanif said they were shocked
by the news about the 21-year-old Muslim.
Omar Khan Sharifescaped the scene on Tuesday night
after his explosives belt failed to detonate.
Both Hanif and Sharif entered Israel from the Gaza Strip,
marking the first time in this Intifada
that attackers infiltrated Israel
from the southern territory.
Hanif's device detonated. Sharif's failed.
He was found drowned on the beach weeks later.
After Mike's Place, some of Sharif's relatives were put on trial
for withholding information.
One was cleared, and two others had cases dropped.
One of those inside the bar was American Joshua Faudem,
who was in the middle of shooting a documentary film
about the pub at the time of the blast.
Jack, we're still filming.
We've been filming everything ever since.
- You got all of that? - We got it all.
Wow.
Do you want to make a statement?
One of the cardinal rules of journalism
is, "Report the story. Don't become part of it."
But after surviving the Mike's Place suicide bombing,
that rule was meant to be broken.
This time out, Joshua and I were aiming
to look at the bigger picture of international terrorism
and tell our own story in the process.
At least, that was the plan.
In 2005, I met Mr. Jack Baxter.
I was running a small distribution label at the time,
and I purchased his first movie,
called, Brother Minister: The Assassination of Malcolm X.
When I did that, I started to get death threats. And Jack was like,
"Oh yeah, that's kind of par for the course. You know what I'm saying?"
The Last Sermon must bring up all kinds of thoughts
in terms of questions you need to find answers to.
And what are they?
Part of the beauty of documentary filmmaking
is asking the questions when you start
and not knowing the answers
until you go through this journey.
You know, there's a scripture in Ecclesiastes,
it says, "Cast thy bread upon the waters,
for thou shalt find it after many days.
Give a portion to seven, and also to eight,
for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon earth."
So what we're doing,
we're going to drop a pebble in the pond
and see what happens.
We're going to go out with this documentary,
and we are going to find out
what is going on in Europe among refugees,
the whole refugee situation.
We're headed to England,
and we're going to meet, Inshallah,
with the families of the two guys
who tried to take us out.
Muhammad!
I just crossed the checkpoint.
Okay, just stop somewhere there
- and, uh, wait for me. - Okay.
- Hello. It's an honor, man. - Hey, how are you?
How you doing, man? All good?
Wow, this is a nice joint.
You're living it up here in Shuafat, right?
- And, you know... -Well, at least you can make your house look good.
- Wow. - Come to this side.
I'm kind of a celebrity
- in the refugee camp, and people appreciate that. - So you...
Really? So when you walk down the street,
you're, like, you know, people, like, "Hey, Muhammad!
I know that guy!"
This area, Shuafat,
is considered as "a dangerous population."
You don't feel welcomed in the city
or in Israel in general.
Just from the neighborhood? I mean, just from...
Especially because you're from Shuafat.
On your papers, it says, So you have to carry papers with you?
- Shuafat refugee camp. - Your ID?
Now, what does it say? "I'm a Palestinian?"
It says nothing.
You're not Israeli. You're not Palestinian.
You're just...
someone who lives in East Jerusalem.
So you're not a citizen of anywhere?
No.
And neither are any of these people?
No.
People don't like refugees.
But this is my identity.
I... I identify myself as a Palestinian refugee.
There's this image of the refugee that's
uneducated and violent.
It's a bad thing to be a refugee.
I got a harmonica for you.
Oh, you got a Blues Harp?
- Yeah. - Alright, hey...
Wow...
You saw the kids in the barber shop.
Like, this is what kids do, like,
they just want to have fun, ride motorcycles.
They don't want to be involved in crazy,
radical Islam.
The harmonica, man,
this is a present for your journey.
- Really? Oh, wow. -You've got to take it with you
to Europe all the way
- to play it. - Thank you. Thank you.
♪ I got the Shuafat boogie ♪
I haven't sat with everybody
since 2006
at the Mike's Place memorial.
Why do you think people remember the Mike's Place bombing?
Why is it so significant?
Do you think it was because the two guys were British
- and not Palestinian? - Mm-hmm.
- Some of it had... some has to do with it. - Yeah.
And it was Mike's Place, and there were
- foreigners involved. - Right.
It was the first time that was
a bombing that was done by... Not, not by foreigners,
but the recording that was done before it, that was in English.
- Right, that too. -That was explaining why they did it,
in the... in their sense.
That was the first time an English... that was before ISIS,
- that was before everything else. - Right.
Islam is not a religion of just, you know, speaking,
we've got to be people of action.
So we have to understand these people.
It's not just the soldiers, it's the civilians also.
So those in the west, when you see a civilian die, you're just thinking,
"Oh, the Jewish man died."
No, when Muslims are being killed every day, day in, day out, every day!
It's a great honor to kill one of these people.
It's a great honor...
How did they become who they became?
I want to know how people become radicalized.
I got to understand, what's the purpose of that film?
- Of what film? Of this film? - This film. Yeah.
Like, this Last Sermon...
it's like, for me, it's like pulling out a card
to... to say to people from this religion,
"Maybe I'm wrong, maybe you're wrong,
but did you read this?"
I'm not on the same page.
I'm not in that world peace and happy-dandy ending.
I'm not, um, really not there.
Where are you?
- Reality. - Reality.
It's just glorifying
what they're doing,
you taking the time and investing tha... you know,
to learn more about that
- it's just glorifying... -You're putting them on the same level,
and we're doing a dialogue now?
You're just going to show up at their door?
To be honest with you, I don't even think they'll want to meet us.
Uh, why would they?
- I'm Pedrag, nice meeting you. - How are you?
Hey, man, how are you doing?
- Do you speak Greek? - Uh, no, I don't, but I understand Greek letters.
- Okay, yeah, because they're Cyrillic? - So, look at this one,
- this, it says "Exit." - Yeah?
Uh, on Greek, it... It says, "Exodus."
We're coming very close to the Idomeni Camp.
At one point of time,
when there was a big rush of refugees,
and either Macedonians
or Hungarians closed the border for few hours,
and around 10,000 to 12,000 refugees
had to stay for a while on one place without moving.
They could see the wire, they could see the border,
but they can't go through.
Mud, rain, small children everywhere.
Scenes that you wouldn't want to see,
but are scenes of humanity's bad work.
This is the railroad,
which many of refugees took as their point,
how to get to the border
because most of them couldn't wait for the buses
and didn't trust the government.
So they were walking on foot for...
around 500 km from the Athens.
I remember, when the whole crisis started,
it took them 40 days to come to Austria.
Which is okay time, yeah?
From Syria to Austria, 40 days,
mostly by foot, and boat, and buses.
Now, it takes them six months.
Half a year, a year they've been stuck someplace,
and they, they don't know where to go next.
They don't want to be bombed, they don't want to be killed.
Nobody wants to be killed.
You know wha... what that means?
Well, how do you feel when you hear the sirens?
What is the perspective for you in future?
I understand them very well.
A lot of my friends ra... Ran from Serbia.
We go... I ran from Serbia because of that.
You know what? I'm going to bring this back.
Yeah, you can bring it back, then.
What does "Elpida" mean?
"Elpida" means "hope" in Greek.
It's the Greek word for "hope."
Elpida's purpose was to provide humane conditions to refugees.
Uh, the conditions before were terrible.
Uh, people were living in tents, in the middle of empty fields.
Here in Elpida, the... They're not refugees,
we don't treat them like refugees, we treat them like residents.
This is actually, uh, the most vulnerable people in north Greece right now.
Syrians, Palestinians, Kurds, Iraqis, mixed.
Uh, but they're all Arabs.
Uh, I mean, people here were part of, uh, by boats,
and some of them drowning and falling in the water and all of that?
These people know that experience?
All of them, every single one of them,
even the small kids.
I didn't take this on as a job and come directly here.
I was pulling children out of boats, soaking wet.
I was there in the dark when women were screaming
because they couldn't find their children.
If, if the children that were there
were lucky enough to come to a camp like this,
that would be perfect for me.
It's a communal space, they can feel safe.
And they can rely on the fact that this can go back to being normal again.
This says, uh, "broken." She wrote that.
But you notice that's "OK" right in the middle.
So...
I guess she's, uh,
she's okay.
I got one shot left, and I got to tell you,
I'm an ex-Jesus freak, man!
I spent seven years
trying to change the world.
- Okay. -Preaching on the street in Hollywood.
Working in a field for 12 hours a day.
Coming back and sleeping on the floor.
That's what I did.
Hello again, Tony and Susan Alamo
coming your way from Southern California, the new Bible Belt.
We weren't like little Mickey Mouse teens
the guys in there were
Vietnam veterans, and gang members, and Hells Angels,
and everybody else that wanted to, like,
give themselves to God.
Just like these guys.
I used to fast, you know, at least two days a week for seven years of my life!
When you're in that kind of environment,
and you're praying to God on that kind of level,
whether it's illusion, uh, bad nutrition,
you're having a spiritual experience, my friend.
We would die for God.
We would die for our brothers. Gladly.
First of all, you know, it would be better than the way we lived.
It's the same kind of thing as these guys who go out and blow themselves up.
They look at themselves and they're not really satisfied
or they're half-crazy.
And then they find religion, they get caught up in it,
they really believe they're doing a favor,
and they're doing what God, what Allah, wants them to do.
I fe... I, you know, I understand their mindset, I really do.
Praise the Lord, Sue. About a year and a half ago,
I was into acting back in New York City.
I was into drugs,
into, uh, believing that the way and, uh, the truth was, uh,
in, uh, doing your own thing and, uh,
philosophy of live and let live.
I went across the country searching for the truth.
Uh, I thought that, uh, I woul... I would become, uh,
the m... the most famous actor in the world.
I thought I was the most talented person on the face of this earth.
Uh, I was told, uh,
by different people back in New York that,
that "this kid is going to make it, this kid is going to be the big star,
- he is going to be... "Yep. And, uh... - You did, you did.
You're on right now, see?
And...
Thank you, Jesus.
He met his wife now,
and they got married here in Serbia.
And they're waiting for a child,
in three months he's going to be a father.
Do you guys go to movies here?
Um, do you have movies?
What about music? Musicians?
So, what do you guys do during the day?
Do you work out? Do you play football?
He is into going sleeping, nothing else.
- Jack, you're from the United States? - New York.
New York, look at that.
- Amazing city. - You've been there?
Ah, I wish.
All the people who live here,
there is a reason that they left their countries.
We are not economic refugees.
I'm not here to ask for charity.
To raise my hand, "Please, give me $ 1." No.
Just... I need opportunity, I just need a chance
to prove who I am.
I'm... I'm, I'm a young guy, I'm educated,
I can work, I can earn money.
I bet, from a year a million. I can just challenge,"
give me one-year chance.
I would buy a car, I would rent car, I mean, a house.
I will send my brother
to a very good Kindergarten school.
Everywhere I can do it, I just need opportunity.
We're educated family, not only me, lots of my friends.
Am I looking for you to go and destroy your country?
With a 9-month baby?
With my wife, with a Down Syndrome brother?
Thank you. Thank you.
I'll tell you what, though. You know what we should do?
We should start something to try to get
musical instruments in this joint.
How about that?
That's what this place needs,
we could send harmonicas in here.
You know, I'm sure, we could put out harmonicas,
and that's how we'll let everybody know, uh,
"Hey, the Taliban don't play music."
- You know what I'm saying?
Hi, Joe, this is Jack Baxter calling.
I need this advice from you
and see if you have a contact
of a, an investigator in London.
I need to, I need him to look up a couple of people for me,
and see if he can figure it out.
That was Donald Trump's private investigator
- for many, many years. - -Yeah?
- Where do you know him from? - If he... I know him from, uh,
from Kennedy's, on 57th Street, on the West Side.
You think he's going to...
You think he's going to be able to help us?
If he can't help us, no one can.
These are the facts Joshua and I know.
Mohammad Sidique Khan, a British citizen,
visited Israel on Wednesday, February 19th, 2003.
Khan left the next day.
Ten weeks later,
after midnight on April 30th, 2003,
Khan's friends from England,
Asif Hanif and Omar Khan Sharif,
attacked Mike's Place, next door to the American Embassy in Tel Aviv.
Only hours before,
the US backed Roadmap for Peace Plan
was presented to the Palestinians and Israelis
in an effort to solve the Middle East conflict.
July 7th, 2005, two years later,
Mohammad Sidique Khan and three others blew themselves up
when they attacked the London transit system.
Jack Baxter, Abdullah.
Abdullah. Jack Baxter.
Oh, wow, what an accent.
Really?
Really, like, coming from...
Clint Eastwood movie.
What about food?
How do you feed? Bec...
Are you kosher people or you eat anything?
I'm not.
How dare you?
He's going to Hell. I told him that.
I'm not sure about Hell, but, uh...
- Except they don't believe in it.
- We don't have Hell. -Yeah. What do you got? - Yeah, of course.
- You got, like... - We've got, uh...
- What do you... - Detroit.
- He's got Detroit.
One thing in life I don't like is nationalism.
Because nationalism, uh, presumes border.
I would like to have a borderless world.
I would like people to be, like, one family that we are.
According to Islam,
you can believe what you believe,
you are responsible for your beliefs,
I am responsible for my beliefs.
I'm not allowed to say to you,
"Because you are Jewish, or because you are Christian,
you are, therefore, wrong."
To assume that they are all evil enemies
who were born evil,
to do evil against you, and you are now going
to eliminate them from the surface of this Earth,
and saying, therefore, you are good,
is false.
And it's evil in itself.
And nowhere in Islam that, uh,
committing suicide in the name of religion
is good.
And that they will go to heaven,
and have 70 virgins looking after them.
Martyrs are those who defend their country,
their family, from invaders.
There is nothing there that calls us to go
and kill an innocent person.
Are there a lot of Imams that feel like you do?
- Or are you at another level, or...? - My friends, yeah.
I... I hope I'm on some good level.
My friends are, the mufti before me,
all my Imams, all of us,
don't have any Anti-Semitic feelings.
- As-Salaam-Alaikum. - Alaikum-Salaam.
- Good luck to you. - Okay.
- May Allah keep you safe. - Thank you.
And you think these people are going to get radicalized
or are prime candidates for...
ISIS or Al Qaeda to come through here and, you know, grab some of these guys?
Say, "Look, here is a couple of bucks,
strap this on, we'll give you...
We'll give your brother $ 25 grand."
These guys, man, I mean, these are people
that just want, you know, like, they just want to work.
And, I mean, they can't get a job, right?
They can't go to work.
They're desperate.
So, in the beginning, you know,
there was no Muslim communities in Hungary.
It's something, like, 10,000 people,
most of them integrated to the middle class,
upper middle class, so there was no Islamophobia in Hungary.
And even the Hungarian far right,
the movement which the Mayor is a part of,
was very much pro-Palestinian
just to cover the anti-Jewish sentiment
in a politically correct way.
So, even the Mayor was wearing a kuffia as a young activist,
and he was very much pro-Palestinian.
However, uh, with recent tendencies in Europe,
he is swifting his thoughts on this.
Ásotthalom was like a refugee camp everywhere.
- So... - How many people are we talking about?
How many?
Uh, in 2015,
we had, um, 9,000 illegal migrants
every day, a day.
- And where would they go? Did they just... - Every day.
They just passed through everybody's farm and keep going? Or...
Uh, yes, yes, uh, they, they didn't want to leave.
I got a lot of, uh, calling, uh, from my children's mother,
and she said, "Please help us because, uh,
one group of 40 persons from Afghanistan
are in our garden, in our house."
- So... -So, can you imagine this situation?
Yes, we, we sometimes need, uh, these, uh,
these, uh, border fences because, uh,
uh, these fences protect us,
they protect our country, protect the peaceful people, you know.
And, uh, I am very proud of this border fence
because I was that man who suggested to erect.
This is my idea.
I would accept real refugees
only from the neighbor countries where is war.
We accept many refugees here.
- So you see, you see Islam... - many refugees.
And Muslims or their beliefs as foreign to,
basically, Christian Hungarians?
You know, um, a few Muslims,
uh, can integrate to the European society,
but, uh, Hungarian culture is not comfortable with the Islam.
I love Europe.
I love the colors of Europe.
You know, if I, if I want to get some experience about the Islam,
I will travel to Saudi Arabia.
But I don't want mosques in my town.
So this is the double fence.
It's brand new. It's been just completed,
like, a few weeks ago.
And actually, what I haven't seen,
and I just heard, uh, stories,
that there's, uh, electricity in the wire.
I heard just rumors and I, I told to my sources,
"No, it's impossible we put, uh, electricity in the, in the fence."
And now it seems like it's really true.
You know, police cars are, are, uh, running up and down
to show a militarized face of Hungary.
Because this is a political game, what's going on here.
We don't have refugees anymore.
Like, in the last month,
less than 50 people tried to come through Hungary.
This is crazy, especially if you know the reality.
So this is, this is pure shame.
You've got compassion for refugees.
I know you don't like fences.
But you were in the IDF,
you were... You were in the Israeli Army.
You, you actually manned a checkpoint,
asking people for their papers.
That's probably why I feel the way I feel now.
I felt terrible.
- It's degrading. - But you did it.
Of course I did it.
I was... I was 18, 19, 20, of course I did it.
I turned people back at checkpoints,
I took people's cars apart.
It's terrible, telling people, "No, you can't pass."
"But I live here." "No, you can't. You got to go all the way around..."
Yeah, I did it, absolutely.
That's why, when I see this, these kinds of things here,
it, uh, it's... It really, really makes me,
um...
sick.
Were you around when, when The Wall went down? How old were you?
I was four.
I'd already been through my first wife,
and, you know, and...
- Jesus. Jesus. - Yeah, I'd lived an entire life.
There's the Alexander.
- That's Alexanderplatz? - Yeah.
- The West had the shopping mall, and they had this tower. - Yeah.
Like, the symbol of Berlin, a big disco ball.
I was blown up in a suicide bombing in 2003
by two British nationals,
Omar Khan Sharif and Asif Hanif.
I needed to know if Stuart could do a, uh, a location job for me.
I'm trying to locate their relatives in London.
And I wanted to know if, uh,
if Stuart could help us out.
They have my information, he'll call me tomorrow morning at...
nine o'clock.
Hey, do you know where the Hohner factory is?
Is there a Hohner place in Berlin?
As Hohner on the...
- Like, the main harmonica joint? - There's one in...
- the south. -I'll tell you one thing, if I could go
to the Hohner main place,
- where it's like, "Hohner!" - What's Hohner?
It's the capit... it's the people who make harmonicas
and the best Blues Harps in the world.
So, what's this up here?
This is the Kaiser Wilhelm Church.
This is where, on my birthday, 19th December last year,
was... there's always this big Christmas market.
And there was a guy driving in with a lorry that he stole in Poland.
And he just ran over the stands.
I remember that.
That was right here, huh?
It was right here.
Got to do it. You got to mourn the dead,
you got to honor the dead.
You also have to fight for the living.
If these guys are going to run havoc all over the world,
we got to stop these guys cold.
Resist them, fight them, kill them.
Or convert them, one or the other.
Good luck. Good luck at conver... I think it would be easier
to kill them than to convert them.
All right, their choice.
We started as a helping organization fo...
Just in the neighborhood.
The officers, all the authorities here,
everything, totally collapsed, they messed up.
You had 1,500 people sitting here on the field,
no food, no doctor, no diapers, nothing,
by 40 Celsius,
that was the moment when we stepped in,
we made a full post on Facebook,
and said, "People, just people from Berlin, come, we have to do this."
They always try to make it difficult.
They ch... brought us the Health Department,
"You don't... You're not allowed to cut stuff
because it's not healthy."
We're like, "What is not healthy? They're people.
They're starving, they are hungry.
And what we do is not healthy?
It's not healthy what happens there on the field.
Go on the field!"
We found this
on the Macedonian-Greek border.
- It's a baby's refugee shoe. - Mm-hmm.
And, uh,
I hope that, uh,
somehow she made it to here,
or someplace wh...
Someplace that's the equivalent.
- Is there any place like this? - No.
Alright. So, if she didn't make it here,
- she couldn't replace this shoe with another one, right? - Yeah.
- Sure. - Alright.
And we had a lot of children, they came without shoes.
- Well... - They came just barefooted.
You know, I wonder how is it possible,
if you find this shoe on the Macedonia border,
um, and if this child arrives here without shoes,
where have been the people on the way from Macedonia to here?
Why wasn't on this nowhere
somebody giving those children shoes?
Ahh...
How is it possible?
What is wrong with us?
You don't have a T-shirt I could buy, do you?
You don't have to buy, if you need a T-shirt,
- we give you a T-shirt! - Well, I...
- I'll wear the T-shirt. -Yes, we can give you this T-shirt, sure.
- It fits like a muscle shirt. - -Perfect!
Arnold Schwarzenegger, you're not... got nothing on me.
It's a good T-shirt.
It's a...
I will, uh, I will wear it with pride.
Not... no problem.
You, you are, um, expected.
- Jack. Aeham. - Aeham. You'll speak with me?
I'm going to speak with you. He's going to...
- Salaam-Alaikum. - Wa-Alaikum-Salaam.
One thing that really got to me when I read this
was that you said... You're quoted as saying
that you don't really want to be the "Face of the refugees."
I read something, you, you have shrapnel in you?
Oh, I can see it, yeah.
- I'm partially paralyzed, right down the middle. - Oh.
I'm sure you might have the same feeling, it's like, uh,
- like when your foot falls asleep... - Yes, yes, yes.
- Yes. -...that, that, like, it's like, uh,
- pins and needles type of thing, and... - Yes, yes, yes.
- Yes. Oh. - I can't really...
When the bomber exploded,
pieces of him embedded in me.
So I got...
And most of them are gone now so...
- But you've got your war stories... - Yeah.
I've got my war stories, so...
- Let me ask you, Uh, can I play with you? - Yes, please.
I mean, I only have an A, it's only an A.
So I don't know if...
Hey, Jack.
Hey.
I just talked to Hohner.
And, uh, they said they don't have anybody in Stuttgart,
but they might make this package of 50 to 100 harmonicas,
and send it to us tomorrow to Stuttgart,
so we can take them along, and we get to, uh,
this thing started.
What do you say?
Hey, man, thank you very much, man.
I didn't do much, just called them.
- They seem to be very friendly. - Wow.
What's this "Hijab Style"?
Yeah, "The Hijab Style," I think, uh,
we want to try to put our statement before us.
So if I'm the viewer of the photo,
I knew... I know I have to think about,
like, "What is he trying to tell me?"
I like this country, you have more future here, you know.
But I think I'd rather live in Serbia
because I feel more like I'm human there, you know.
I also feel, like, more accepted than here.
I mean, also, when I go in Serbia,
I feel like a tourist, you know.
When I'm here, I also feel like a tourist.
So I don't really, really have
to say I have a home, you know.
I also don't talk, uh, about where I'm from.
It's, it's not an important thing for me where I'm from.
So I never talk about that.
I'm going to write one of the quotes
from The Last Sermon of the Prophet Muhammad,
"Peace be upon Him."
In, uh, Arabic?
- Sure. Let's get to it. - Let's get to it.
Hey!
If we can drop a dime somehow and help you guys out
- and see if we can get a gig for you in the States... - Yes.
- Could you, uh, could you make it? - Yes.
Well, welcome.
- Lady's first. - Yeah.
- In our community... - -Thank you.
You are welcome all times, anytime.
Come over, you are welcome.
- Thank you very much. - -Thank you so much.
They are dates from Saudi Arabia.
- Thank you very much. - Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.
- Thank you, my friend. - Thank you.
The word is "Yitka," not "Jitka."
Hey, Josh, hey, Jack, hey, guys.
Hey.
- Hey, Jack. - How're you doing?
- How is it going? - Good.
We're ready... we're ready for Olivie tonight.
- Oh, yeah, she's ready for us. -Will she, will she bring her shotgun?
She's... she will definitely bring her husband,
- which is more than a shotgun, I think. - Is it? Yeah, yeah.
I don't know Olivie that much in person.
I was doing the research for this movie,
and that is when I figured out that we would need an attractive figure
to represent the anti-refugee voices.
- Olive, how are you? - Hello, hello.
- Pleased to meet you. Hello. - Hello.
Thank you very much.
I do care about children.
I mean, you know, their security,
so with this, uh, terror, what's going on...
- Yes. -...in Europe, whole Europe, so this is a problem,
so I don't like it, and I want them to live in peace.
- So you do acting, singing, teaching? - Writing.
- Writing? You write lyrics? - Lyrics,
- and the whole... And plays. - For songs or, or plays?
- Songs and plays too. -So you are, you're extremely artistic?
Yes, I, I think so, yes.
And I'm teaching some voice lessons, yes.
I don't want to support criminal, uh, people.
- And they're all criminals? - They are mostly crimina...
Because the people who send those people
to... who help them to come,
to... what are they called?
- Smugglers. - Smugglers.
- So, and this is 90%,
90% of these immigrations are through smugglers.
Is this a matter of Czech identity
and Czech culture?
That you don't want to see,
- uh... - -Migrants?
That you don't want to see, not just the immigrants,
but maybe immigrants from anywhere.
- Or is it just specifically... - We have here.
Islamic and Muslim immigrants?
We have here already some Muslims,
but a very, very low number.
Yeah? So they are already here.
We have here not only Muslims, we have here Vietnam, Chinese,
we have here two million migrants.
- And you don't mind those immigrants? - We don't mind them at all.
And now are thousands, millions migrants coming
to the European Union,
and they offer them everything for nothing!
- And then I am angry! - We've met other people
who say that you guys are the problem.
- Is violence part of your platform? - No, we are not violent.
I don't say that we will take our guns
and that we will shoot them.
It's not my way. My way is only to, uh, tell people,
"Look what's going on."
We met a Muslim who said
that his daughter was attacked,
- sh... for wearing a hijab in the subway here. - Yes.
- Yeah. -I mean, you don't agree with that, do you?
Well, you know, you can't, um,
be surprised of reactions like this.
People really want to show what they mean.
This is th... the only thing how they can show, uh,
Muslims that they hate them.
- These are dates that... -Yeah, yeah, I know, they're sweet as...
Right, and they were given, they were given to me
- by the Imam... - Um.
Uh, an Imam from Saudi Arabia.
Like, we have nuts here from Iraq, Iran.
These are h... these are from...
- I know you've got nuts, but... - We have things from them.
I don't know wha... What you mean with this.
We can do business with these people.
I don't have a problem with making business with, uh,
uh, Muslims.
But I don't want here their hijabs, burqas.
I don't want it here! This is the point!
I don't want war, all those civil wars.
We're meeting Muslims,
they're quoting from the Quran and telling us
that this is not Islam,
that the people who are doing this
have a false interpretation of Islam,
that Islam is peace.
Are these people deceiving us?
Yeah, they are used to lying to us.
I tell you what, we're going to France tomorrow.
I will ask the next Imam that we run into...
- Imam! Sorry... - and I will...
they're people you can't believe it!
Your naivete is bigger than I thought!
Can you believe it?
- Never. Never. - Never!
He said never.
I can't believe that you are so naive.
They almost kill you and you... Do you, like,
How is that possible?
They wash your brain already!
And we can't, we can't let this happen,
that somebody will brain our... Wash our brain!
I will never, never, never...
Man, you can't!
Don't!
Don't! You Americans,
No, we Czechs are totally different level!
That was maybe one of the wildest interviews
that I've ever had.
I assure you that they used our pictures with them
to promote her presidential...
- Yeah. - You're going to be in her presidential campaign, Jack.
- I know, we're, we're... - With your Peace shirt.
The singer already posted my,
my picture filming her on Facebook.
What I'm looking for, just to reiterate,
is, uh, seeing if we can, uh, meet or,
at least, have information, uh,
I don't know if you can actually facilitate
a meeting with us and the, uh,
the two terrorists' families.
The UK, unlike America,
is a little bit more difficult for,
as you put it, skip-tracing for people
that have operated in this particular arena.
We may be able to identify family members
and make some general inquiries.
If whether they will actually want to talk to you,
given what's happened and where some of them are,
that might be a little bit more difficult.
He's going to make inquiries today to find out
if there can be a meeting set up with some of the...
With one... Three of these people.
You and me, of course, are the perfect people
to get into this because we were the first attacked
by this British Al-Qaeda crew.
So I understand that you work with people in jail,
people in prison here in Paris and around France
who've been radicalized,
some of them or at least one that we know of,
fought with ISIS.
How have you approached this guy, and has he changed?
Some of them have changed, yes.
Because...
Each one has his own story.
Please, go ahead.
How do you actually take a guy
who's committed himself to kill
on behalf of Allah?
How do you get a guy like that back into the fold...
of true Islam?
These two brothers
who murdered these artists at Charlie Hebdo,
they believed that they were protecting
the legacy of Prophet Mohammad, "Peace be upon him."
Because he was being slandered, made fun of.
- Is Islam and Muslims... - Um.
So weak...
that they can't take a joke?
The name of this film is The Last Sermon.
Do many Muslims actually know this particular sermon,
or is it given short shrift by people,
especially your guys, who are sitting in prison,
um, did they know about it?
And do you bring that message, the Last Sermon, to them?
How do we go from a man who is called by God,
in His name,
murder?
How that happen?
Because it's the stuff of the life.
We are humans, and we are here in a test.
That's the challenge.
How we are going to behave?
Some people kill in the name of religion.
And some people bring peace in the name of religion.
It's a test, it's an exam.
Well, how do you think we're doing?
We have to do our best to live together in peace.
- Salaam-Alaikum. - Wa-Alaikum-Salaam.
On April 29th, 2003,
Asif Hanif and Omar Khan Sharif smuggled high-grade explosives
into Israel from the Gaza Strip
concealed inside a hollowed-out copy of the Sacred Quran.
In the days leading up to the attack,
Omar Khan Sharif sent emails from the Palestinian Territories
to his sister, his brother, and his wife,
the mother of his three children
back in England.
Omar's relatives were subsequently charged
with failure to disclose information
about acts of terrorism.
The charges against Sharif's wife were dropped.
His sister and brother were found not guilty at trial.
We are at war, and I am a soldier.
Now you too will taste the reality of this situation.
In spite of the known connection
between the Mike's Place bombers
and Mohammad Sidique Khan,
British Intelligence didn't connect the dots in time
to prevent the 7/7 attacks.
If they had, 52 people might still be alive.
No official explanation of Khan's mysterious one-day visit to Israel
in February 2003
has ever been given.
For the Mike's Place suicide bombing
to have been carried out next door
to the American Embassy
on the same day the Roadmap for Peace Plan
was presented to the Palestinians and Israelis
was not a coincidence.
The location of the target and its coordinated timing
was designed to send a message to a worldwide audience.
To this day, the Palestinian Group Hamas
continues to celebrate the martyrdom operation of Asif and Omar,
young men from Great Britain,
who became foot soldiers
of an international terrorist organization,
Al Qaeda.
When we get to England,
Joshua and I will ask Asif and Omar's relatives
what they knew about their plans for martyrdom,
that is,
if we can find them.
It is so goddamned hot, it's incredibly hot.
- It's good. - -Look at it.
- Do you see that, uh... - Yeah.
- That wooden brush there?
- This thing is so hot that I cannot... - Wow.
- Oh you're doing double, wow! - You've got to stay with it.
You can't go away, like, you can't go away and read,
like, read your emails. Now, you got to be on the case.
- Amen! - Amen!
Remember that girl at the press conference,
- the Palestinian girl? - Yeah.
She sent me a message,
saying...
- this. - I love you?
No, Jack. "How are you? I just saw the devastating news.
You're in London, right?"
So I opened up the newspaper.
There was a terrorist attack in England yest... last night.
What kind of attack?
Suicide bombing?
At a concert.
Get out of here!
- Where? - Manchester.
- 22 died. - 22, yeah.
It's the biggest attack in England since 7/7.
Children...
Te... uh, teenagers, man,
- teenagers. -This is including chil... I don't know, yeah.
And 59 others...
ISIS celebrates.
- This is, this is red, this is red alert. - Too much.
And the Prime Minister of England said
that another attack is imminent.
So you've got to... you got to watch your ass as well,
besides filming your film. You got to be careful.
- Come, look at this co... look at CNN. - Let's go look at CNN.
- Check it out. - Three victims killed in the Manchester bombing
have been identified so far.
Authorities confirmed that 8-year-old,
8-year-old Saffie-Rose Roussos is among those who lost their life.
Saffie was a student at a primary school in Lancashire
and was described as "simply beautiful."
- While that... -These are like young teenage girls,
that's her crowd.
Yeah, I know. And their parents.
Nurses and not rush...
Oh, my God.
Enough.
We are uncomfortable
screening all of this and...
That's it. Murder.
From the people of Manchester...
Murder.
A diverse crowd there at...
Not jihad.
Murder. Alright.
Just, this is, this is...
You want war, you got it.
If somebody wants to swear to it,
they're in on the game and they're going down!
It is, uh, Easy Rider meets Apocalypse Now.
- Why do you think so? - Because of what Marlon Brando said at the end.
Colonel Kurtz, "The horror...
the horror."
- Marlon Brando said that thing? - Colonel Kurtz.
- Colonel Kurtz? - He kept repeating that.
New York, 9/11, it's the same situation.
All the pictures of people who were missing.
You know, as if somebody would come out of outer space,
and, you know, these people were dead,
but people were still looking for them.
So... How long have you been at this church for?
- Nine years. Yeah. - Nine years, yeah?
Nine years.
So, Jack, I was saying to...
- Joshua. - Joshua, yeah, Josh.
I was saying, to do this project...
that I just heard about from Avi,
that requires immense humanity, to do that.
It does.
I was just thinking of Ecclesiastes.
Yeah?
"A time to mourn,
and a time to dance,
a time of war,
and a time of peace."
What time is it?
That's a big question.
Because...
this cannot keep going.
There can't be more Manchesters,
- Londons... - Um.
- 9/11s. - Um.
Except that...
we believe there will be, don't we?
That's what we believe. And...
one thing, I... I think in, in the city,
is, uh, there's a real feeling of coming together.
It's good and nice to feel together,
but it's not the solution.
That's true.
That's absolutely correct.
It's in... but it... But it is part
of the solution about how we should live.
Thank you very much.
Jack, anyway, bless you.
- Bless you. - That's what I can say.
Bless you very, very much. Bless you.
- Yeah. Bless you, guys. - Thank you, Nigel.
Thank you very much.
Isn't it the flag of Ukraine?
Sin! Sin has brought the problem!
And sin has brought death!
- Hallelujah! - And so it was necessary
for Jesus Christ...
Here you just can kiss my ass...
what is holy to dogs,
and do not throw your pearls before swine
or they will trample them and they'll...
and the evidence is we're all sinners,
it is not perfect.
But I think, in general terms,
you've got to say that it's true...
- Stop because that's right, especially... - Amen.
- That this is only by His Grace. - Amen.
The British and the Americans
are the closest allies with Saudi Arabia.
And by the way, you may have followed the story...
I say, sir, how are you?
Doing the best I can with the tools I have,
which are diminishing as I speak.
What are your tools?
Name one, besides the cane.
Who are you?
Nobody. I'm a nobody.
- Where in the States are you from? - Florida.
New York City.
You're kidding me.
We're neighbors, man!
Well, I tell you, this is,
at least this is an example of, I guess,
- free speech, right? - It's great!
- You come here every Sunday? - Been coming here
every Sunday for 24 years.
- Do you get up and preach? - Yeah, of course.
- Do you have a box or you just... - A ladder.
- Can I rent your ladder?
The Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him,
said in his Last Sermon,
"All of the practices done in the days of ignorance
are now under my feet.
There is no superiority of an Arab over a non-Arab,
or of a non-Arab over an Arab,
or of a White over a Black,
or a Black over a White,
except by righteousness and piety."
That is the essence of Islam,
not murder!
If they want to fight,
if they want to kill,
then let them be killed!
No quarter with those who would take the example of the Prophet
and use him to be a cudgel against humanity!
Hello, Paul speaking.
- Paul, this is Jack Baxter. - Hi, Jack, how are you?
I think we were all disappointed from our end as well
that we couldn't get you a,
a law enforcement sort of guy,
we're well connected and we certainly,
uh, knew a number of people via, via... just there're nobody,
they were even pixilated or anything, they really all seemed to pull away from it.
Even the chap that agreed, suddenly at the last minute...
Do you think this is because of Manchester?
I just don't know, it could be,
it could be a little bit hot at the moment, of course,
tha... that, that actually would make a bit of sense,
given that he seemed quite keen previously.
So, yeah, it could be.
I didn't even make that connection myself,
but, but, um, hopefully we'll have more joy,
you know, on the relatives side, so...
My guys will let me know when they can get
all the rest of the staff gathered.
We can get to the woman, we've got her address.
- His sister. No, the wife, his wife. - We've got the sister's address.
His wife could've said one word.
She could've said something like,
"Omar, I love you.
Please, don't do this."
"I'm doing it for God, I'm doing it for Allah,
I'm doing it for..."
Maybe she did.
Not according to the transcripts.
They knew what these guys were up to and they... and...
By their silence,
three people are dead,
I'm sitting here with, uh,
Asif Hanif, Mohammad's,
organic shrapnel still in me,
which reminds me,
uh, ever since then,
I can tell you that I've had a, uh...
I've had a serious craving for baba ghanoush
and, uh, hummus and pita bread.
And I don't know if that's...
that's a very sick joke, isn't it?
Now, I guess we're going to, you know,
try to be, uh, cordial and,
you know, as far as I'm concerned with this guy,
the sins of the brother don't pass down to the brother,
just like the sins of the father don't pass.
I guess, you know,
he probably misses his brother.
And whether he idealizes him
or he thinks he was a fool...
- We'll find out. - We'll find out.
It's what happens when you come to people's house unexpected.
- Yeah.
Like, "Who are you?"
- I think he's home. - I wouldn't answer the door.
- Yeah. - Why do you think he's home?
- Because his car's here. - Yeah, he's home.
Uh... two cottages next to him
and they, they know him, but they don't have his phone number.
- And I told them that I will see them in the mosque later today. - Really?
- Why not? - We're going to the mosque?
Of course we're going to the mosque.
Now, do you know if Asif prayed
- at the Hounslow Mosque for sure? - Yes, that's why we are here.
Do you think it? Because at the time, the prayer has been finished.
- It's finished already? - It's already finished.
So most of them are gone.
- Uh, everyone has gone. - Is that a funeral?
It's... no, no, it's not a funeral,
it's about, you know, the Man...
No, no, it's about the Manchester attack.
That we are, uh, standing together,
- that it's wrong. So we are... - Really?
Just trying to say to the community th... Yes.
When are you doing... When are you doing this?
Uh, he just started to be on the stage.
- Ca... can we go there, can we film it? - Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Let's stop today for one minute of silence
in remembrance of those who perished.
When you enjoy raindrops, peace comes to you.
When you hear birds sing, peace comes to you.
When you see fish swimming in clear water,
peace comes to you.
When you hear children laugh,
peace comes to you.
And when you hum while walking in the woods,
peace comes to you.
Let peace come to you in different ways.
Let peace be with you all.
That's a nice cane, man.
If you get a chance to go to India,
- then have one of these made for you. - Wow.
- You're a survivor, from what I understand. - Yeah.
Which bombing were you a survivor from?
The Mike's Place, uh,
- bombing back in... Yeah, 2003. - In Tel Aviv?
- Me and, uh, Josh were making a documentary... - Yeah.
- About the bar. - Yeah.
And I understand you knew Asif Hanif?
I didn't know him personally.
The school behind you
it's the school where he went to.
At a one time, I was
the vice Chair of school governance there.
But I think the most important thing is
that individuals like him, right,
somehow they've been indoctrinated, brainwashed,
and I condemn that type of individual.
They have no place, and if they think they're going to go to heaven,
well, I think the Almighty might have something else to say.
We need to make sure that we support individuals, that we need to stop
this brainwashing and indoctrination,
that violence is going to solve all their problems.
And it isn't, it really isn't.
What do you say to, uh, people who say,
"Not only do we have to stop the brainwashing or the indoctrination,
but we've got to stop
the killers of ISIS and Al Qaeda cold
- and kill them." - Well, I say to them
that there must be a better way.
We're talking about a crew of individuals
who are raping, murdering,
in the name of the Prophet,
- peace be upon Him. -And they are not... I'm not a Muslim,
to be clear, I'm not a Muslim.
When you talk about those people,
they've gone back in time,
and if they actually went back in time 1,000 years
to the time of Muhammad
and some of His preachings,
- none of this would then be possible. - I know.
There are more people being killed
who are of the Islamic faith
by the same people.
- So let's kill them. - No.
- Let's kill them where they live. - I don't... I don't...
- No. No, no, no. - Let's go and get these guys
- and wipe them out. - I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- That goes... - We're going to make
- peace with these guys? - I, I think these guys...
Listen, I can't... This is it for me.
- Forget this. - -What?
Why?
What seem... what happened?
This is over with, okay?
I cannot... I can't abide by this crap!
You have to understand that these are murderers!
- I understand that, I have friends... - These are murderers!
- Who are in Syria... - Murderers!
Who are from... Protecting the Yazidi people.
Can you imagine that?
Murderers!
I'm sorry.
Murder!
- I think I'm... I'm not Islam... - I'm sorry.
Peace. Peace. And all it is, is war.
They're killing innocent people.
They're enslaving women.
They're raping children.
They're blowing people up
all over the world in the name of their religion.
Fear. That's what thi...
That's what this religion is all about.
Not just them, but everybody.
It's a fear of God.
Fear God and keep His commandments,
for this is the whole duty of man.
That's in Ecclesiastes,
which is a philosophical treatise.
And even there somebody is saying, "Fear God."
So maybe my beef really isn't with Muslims.
It's not really with ISIS.
It's not really with anybody else.
Maybe my beef is with God.
- I think it is. - Maybe that's the beef.
Trials Inquiry. Four subjects.
Strictly private and confidential.
The first one deals with the, the, the widow.
Tahira was the widow of Omar Sharif, she was 28 at that time.
She went on trial for failing to disclose information.
So she will be 40 or 41 at this time.
You know, it's like, the more...
we come he... We come to these places,
to these houses, and nobody answers,
the more I don't even want to see them.
- Yeah. - So, should we go to the other address?
- Yeah. Let's try the brother. - Let's go.
No, we're going to the sister now, no?
They're home.
- Mm-hmm. - We saw the kids.
All I heard was, "Mummy! Mummy!"
And then they left.
Jack, I'll be by your side, I'll let you do the talking,
- okay? -Yeah, let me do the talking. No...
- And I'll do all the talking. - What's his name again?
- Zahid. - Zahid. Yallah, Zahid.
- Good afternoon. How are you doing? - Good, and yourself?
- We're looking for Zahid. - Zahid?
He's currently in a meeting...
- Is he here? - He's not available.
- Why, is it something I can help you with? - Yeah.
My name is Jack Baxter. I'm a filmmaker
and freelance journalist from New York City.
- Right. - And, uh, Zahid's brother
tried to kill me 14 years ago.
I want to talk to him about it.
- Zahid's brother? - Omar Khan Sharif.
Serious?
All those years ago? And you still have...
Fourteen.
In Tel Aviv.
Right.
Um...
I mean, is there a number I can get hold of you on?
- And you can...
Well, we're just, uh...
I can give you my number, but we're just here
for a few, a few hours.
We tried to speak with his sister.
And she wouldn't answer, and we're just here in town.
We were trying to... Trying to speak to him.
Um, okay.
We're not police, we're not anything.
- You understand why I'd like to know... - Sure.
- My father, he's like that... - He's your father?
- Of course, yeah. - -Yeah.
- What's your name? - I'm Mohammed.
Nice to meet you, Mohammed, I'm Joshua.
So you know the story, I don't have to...
- I was young, and, uh... - Sure.
I've heard of it, yeah. Um...
How is your father? I mean, what's going on? Is he, is he...
What... so, what's the story with, with Omar?
I mean, nobody talks about him?
- Or you were too young to know about him? - I was... I was too young.
- And I... - Well, he...
Jack, Jack and I were at the bar where...
- I'll tell you what the real story is... - How, how did you find us,
though? How did you... uh...
Believe me, we have our ways.
Yeah, but that's, that's, like...
- Research. - If we can't see your father...
- Yeah. -...this is what I want to let your father know,
- and Parveen and everybody else. - -Yeah, yeah...
- We believe... - Um.
And we wrote, we wrote a book, we did...
You know, we did a, uh,
we completed the film we were making.
- Okay. - And we believe that Omar...
because you know he didn't die in the suicide bombing.
- His partner, Asif Hanif did. - Yes, yeah, yeah.
We believe that he had a change of heart,
or we want to believe that he had a change of heart,
and he, he didn't go through with it
- because he had a change of heart. - Um.
And we want to know, uh...
I don't know what we really want to know, to tell you the truth.
We've been on this thing for 14 years.
And...
I don't know if there's a, uh,
some kind of cooperation or...
- We just want to... - Just to get a conversation with him.
I don't know.
I mean...
As I said, he's actually currently in a meeting,
so even if you want to see him, it wouldn't be possible
until the meeting... until he's finished with his meeting,
- but, um... - Well, can I give you my number?
- And if he wants to call, or email us. - Yes.
- Or if, you know, if he doesn't want to call. - It would be better for him
to call, I'm going to give you a UK number, okay?
What's that?
You can't blame the son
- for the father, you can't. - No, you can't.
- You can. No, you can. - You can't blame the son.
I'll tell you, you know, I... after seeing that kid,
I mean, you could see, you know, he had a light in his eyes.
He's a young guy, his whole future is ahead of him.
His uncle, you know, involved in a terrorist attack.
His father charged.
I don't think he's going to turn out to be a bad guy at all.
I think he's going to be a good Muslim.
He's a good Muslim now.
Here is yours.
And yours.
- And yours. - -Give me.
Repeat.
That's harmony, man, you hear that?
That's harmony.
I think we've got a virtuoso in the making over here.
So you... to hit individual notes,
We're going to get some more.
