This is the third part of a four-part Israeli documentary by Zvi Yehezkeli and David Deryi about the Islamization of Europe. It has been translated from the Hebrew and subtitled in English.
The filmmaker is an Arabic-speaking Israeli whose appearance and flawless Arabic accent were sufficient to allow him to mingle freely with the Muslims in several “no-go zones” in Britain, Belgium, Sweden, and France, and to get an inside look at the Islamic mindset within the greater European community.
Many thanks to DarLink for the translation, and to Vlad Tepes for the subtitling:

23 | Europe’s Takeover by Islam, Part 2 |
00:10 | There is no god but Allah | |
00:22 | Here, in the quiet park of Amsterdam, capital of Holland, | |
00:26 | 180,000 Muslims live in this city, | |
00:29 | 24% of the population, | |
00:31 | In the heart of the relaxed Western existence, near the National Museum, | |
00:36 | in front of the Opera House, | |
00:37 | in a few hours an event will start, | |
00:39 | which all Europeans got used to – | |
00:41 | – the Friday’s Muslim prayers. | |
00:44 | To the tourist in Europe, | |
00:47 | the minarets became a part of the city skyline long ago, | |
00:50 | but Europeans, who listen to the mosques’ calls to prayer | |
00:53 | lately, hear the messages, which are getting more and more extreme. | |
00:57 | Clearly the ideology is that of Al Qaeda. | |
01:00 | A chain of terror attacks in New York, London and Stockholm | |
01:05 | led European countries to be more suspicious than ever | |
01:07 | of religious radicalization which is going on in mosques. | |
01:11 | There are some brothers here, which is… you could say they are jihadists. | |
01:15 | Praise the name of Allah! Allahu Akhbar! | |
01:17 | We believe that Sharia will dominate the world. | |
01:19 | The intelligence services of Europe, which began to investigate | |
01:21 | Muslim religious organizations, discovered widespread activities | |
01:25 | which had been hidden from their eyes for too long. | |
01:27 | Nobody will come on-camera | |
01:28 | That’s enough! Stop filming. | |
01:29 | The generation of teachers is replaced by eloquent preachers | |
01:33 | who promote an extreme anti-Europe agenda. | |
01:36 | We will attain the victory, and Allah will make sure it’s been bestowed on us. | |
01:39 | Jihad! Jihad! | |
01:42 | They create a new generation of Muslims, | |
01:44 | one which lives in Europe, | |
01:45 | but does not identify itself with the continent’s values | |
01:48 | and asks to fundamentally change them. | |
01:50 | They can take our nationality | |
01:51 | we do not want it. | |
01:52 | They can take it from us. We do not need it. | |
01:56 | You are invited to visit radicalized religious centers | |
01:59 | within the young Muslim population of Europe. | |
02:01 | The journey between religious ardor and extreme conservatism | |

02:50 | Holland | |
02:53 | The biggest threat that we face | |
02:55 | David Cameron, British prime minister | |
02:56 | comes from terrorist attacks | |
02:57 | Some of which are sadly carried out by our own citizens. | |
03:02 | Sweden | |
03:05 | We need to be absolutely clear on where the origins of these attacks lie | |
03:11 | Britain | |
03:12 | And that is existence of an ideology, Islamist extremism. | |
03:19 | Antwerp, Belgium | |
03:24 | In some mosques, preachers of hate promote separatism | |
03:28 | by encouraging Muslims to define themselves solely in terms of their religion | |

03:45 | What we see in so many European countries | |
03:47 | is a process of radicalization. | |
03:52 | The kuffar are never going to accept that. | |
03:53 | They like, “What is this?” This is not from our system. | |
03:57 | This is barbaric, this is not Afghanistan or something like that. | |
04:02 | Some people, they think they are gonna make some compromise | |
04:08 | and that they gonna please the kuffar and they gonna be pleased with them. | |
04:14 | They never gonna be pleased with us. | |
04:19 | We must ban preachers of hate coming to our countries. | |
04:22 | At stake are not just lives; it is our way of life. | |
04:29 | They should study history. | |
04:31 | Every time they attack the Muslims, | |
04:35 | they were defeated, it’s a matter of time and Allah… | |
04:37 | after we suffer, the victory will come. | |
04:41 | Part III – Terror | |
04:45 | March! | |
04:48 | Stockholm, Sweden | |
04:56 | More than anything else, Europeans are afraid that religious extremism | |
04:59 | is leading, among other things, to the creation of terror cells inside Europe | |
05:02 | which are operating beneath the surface, | |
05:04 | and mainly, as different studies show, | |
05:06 | in religious institutions and mosques. | |
05:14 | The most prominent example of that is in Sweden. | |
05:17 | The naive nature of this Scandinavian country | |
05:20 | convinced the government and the citizens | |
05:22 | that the terrorists are not interested in Sweden and never will be. | |
05:26 | What we had a year ago | |
05:27 | should had worked as a wakeup call. | |
05:30 | It was a very close call, very close call. | |
05:34 | The lack of preparedness, even to think | |
05:38 | that something like this could happen, was totally wrong. | |
05:46 | While the shopping center’s Christmas atmosphere wraps the crowd, | |
05:49 | explosions rock the heart of Stockholm. | |
05:52 | Swedish security forces are convinced that these are fireworks | |
05:55 | or a single-point crime event, | |
05:57 | but Magnus Norel, | |
05:59 | Swedish specialist for civil and army intelligence, | |
06:00 | who held key positions in Sweden’s intelligence services, | |
06:04 | was one of the first to realize | |
06:05 | that his country experienced its first ever suicide bombing. | |
06:09 | When it comes to terrorism, | |
06:11 | you can see that what we have in Europe is a lot of home-grown terrorism | |
06:16 | This stuff may happen here as well. | |
06:19 | We think we are protected | |
06:21 | because we are nice and polite, which we are, | |
06:23 | but you know, it does happen, | |
06:25 | and when it does happen you have to be prepared | |
06:28 | to deal with the consequences, to mitigate the consequences. | |
06:33 | Except for the panic, which engulfs Stockholm, | |
06:34 | the attack does not achieve its goal | |
06:36 | and suicide bomber is the only one who loses his life. | |
06:40 | For people in general of course it’s new | |
06:42 | because it’s never happened before | |
06:43 | and the way the attack last year was viewed by people, | |
06:48 | from the public to the police | |
06:51 | is that “Nothing happened”. | |
06:54 | A local intelligence investigation leads to this mosque, | |
06:57 | the biggest in Sweden. | |
07:19 | Hello. Greetings. | |
07:25 | As you can see, to this place | |
07:29 | come all Muslims, who wish to pray, the most ardent. | |
07:52 | Here you can see donations | |
07:54 | Somalia, Saudi Arabia, | |
07:56 | Palestine, Gaza. | |
07:59 | Look how many organisations are here, | |
08:01 | whether educational or help. | |
08:09 | These are religious education books for toddlers, | |
08:12 | those who were not born in the Middle East | |
08:14 | and do not know what a mosque is. | |
08:16 | The religious literature of course is very friendly. | |
08:20 | Allahu Akhbar! | |
08:43 | Some of the worshipers denounce | |
08:45 | the deeds of the suicide bomber in the heart of the city, | |
08:47 | not far away from the mosque, | |
08:51 | but the imam we met outside | |
08:53 | is not afraid to condone the terrorist attack as allowed under Sharia. | |
08:57 | They always place the blame on Muslims | |
08:59 | in every political or financial crisis. | |
09:02 | He did not kill anyone. | |
09:05 | He only killed himself. | |
09:07 | In my opinion he is a victim of the false democracy. | |
09:10 | The democratic terror caused him to do that. | |
09:24 | Prayer time is for prayers only, | |
09:25 | but after that in the afternoons there are religious studies, | |
09:28 | lessons and group activities. | |
09:30 | Does someone know what is going on here? | |
09:31 | Does someone actually reads the texts? | |
09:33 | Anyone read the flyers, understand the message? | |
09:34 | And there are messages which are quite intolerant of the Swedes, | |
09:37 | but is seems that no one knows about that. | |
09:40 | Let’s say no Swede had ever really checked what’s written in those books. | |
09:45 | because it’s considered to be protected by privacy rights. | |
09:48 | It’s obvious to me that Swedes started to notice. | |
09:51 | The first conclusion of the intelligence services in Europe | |
09:54 | is to pay attention to this place. | |
09:57 | Maybe they already do. | |
10:00 | By and large, the direction is known | |
10:01 | It’s a battle… | |
10:03 | which is now tectonic. | |
10:11 | In the meantime, investigation by Swedish intelligence finds out | |
10:13 | that suicide bomber belongs to an extreme Muslim group | |
10:16 | from Luton, England, | |
10:18 | whose declared intention is to send suicide bombers to targets across Europe. | |
10:24 | Luton, England | |
10:30 | We arrive here following the terrorist cell | |
10:32 | from which the Stockholm bomber came. | |
10:43 | Internal report from British intelligence were leaked to the press in 2008 | |
10:47 | and told the real story of this town | |
10:50 | which became the main center of | |
10:52 | extreme Muslim activities in Britain. | |
10:56 | Hello, does anyone speak Arabic? | |
10:59 | Somebody here speak English? | |
11:02 | We do not speak English | |
11:03 | No one? | |
11:07 | Heritage preservation | |
11:09 | Islamic studies and Arabic language studies | |
11:12 | for ages 7-14 | |
11:14 | We have what I would describe as a form of reverse simulation. | |
11:19 | Douglas Murray, Journalist | |
11:20 | That is to say that two generations ago… | |
11:22 | People who came to Britain in the 1950s, for instance | |
11:25 | from Pakistan, who learned the language, learned English, | |
11:28 | wanted to be part of Britain, | |
11:31 | but their children, certainly their grandchildren believe | |
11:34 | that the British way of life is wrong. | |
11:37 | They don’t feel a part of it. | |
11:38 | In particular are experiencing a re-awakening of religious identity | |
11:43 | over any kind of national identity. | |
11:49 | In every Muslim home | |
11:51 | there is a sticker with a certain verse from Quran, “El Fateha”. | |
12:00 | The town was marked as a growth center of terrorist cells | |
12:04 | after the joint attack planned by terrorists. | |
12:14 | The terrorist act , which succeeded in paralyzing the capital in the summer of 2005 | |
12:18 | will be remembered as the deadliest attack on London | |
12:21 | since WWII. | |
12:23 | The significance of Luton in the attack in July 2005 | |
12:27 | was that that’s where they met | |
12:29 | and then took a train into central London on the morning of the bombing. | |
12:33 | If there’s any milk, it’ll be great. | |
12:35 | Peter Clark, who was the head of the police terror prevention unit | |
12:37 | and led the London attacks investigation, | |
12:40 | understood after a few hours of searching | |
12:42 | where the motivation for the attacks came from. | |
12:46 | Clearly the ideology was that of Al Qaeda. | |
12:49 | There was no doubt about that. | |
12:51 | And there’s no doubt that some of their training and inspiration | |
12:54 | came from Al Qaeda itself. | |
12:56 | The people who launched this attack were young man | |
13:01 | who for whatever reason had been radicalized, | |
13:03 | somehow generated an enormous sense of grievance and anger. | |
13:17 | From these rows of buildings, | |
13:20 | one could say, | |
13:22 | from low socioeconomic level neighbourhood in Luton, | |
13:25 | came four bombers. | |
13:27 | They lived near each other. | |
13:28 | None of them was considered by neighbours | |
13:30 | as out of the ordinary; | |
13:33 | on the contrary, they blended with the crowd, | |
13:35 | returned to Islam, went to the mosque. | |
13:37 | Some Jihadi propaganda, some Internet sources | |
13:39 | and the obvious result … | |
13:42 | When it comes to the actual attacks, | |
13:44 | The materials they gathered together were bought here, in United Kingdom, | |
13:49 | easily obtainable | |
13:52 | and available for very low cost | |
13:55 | to mount a very deadly attack. | |
13:58 | Hello. | |
14:01 | In this building so many brothers | |
14:03 | Algeria | |
14:06 | Muslims. All are Muslims here | |
14:10 | We are trying to find the mosque, from where bombers went | |
14:13 | to different sites in Europe. | |
14:15 | What are you doing with the camera? | |
14:16 | We are doing a film. | |
14:18 | Do you want to be in a film? | |
14:20 | My mother lives here; she is religious. | |
14:22 | She wears a burka. Really? | |
14:24 | Ask her if she is prepared to talk to us in a burka. | |
14:27 | No, no, ’cause my brother has a big beard. | |
14:29 | My brother comes, he sees my mom on the camera, | |
14:32 | people come, he gets very angry. | |
14:35 | What really happens in mosques | |
14:38 | has no way to be found out, | |
14:40 | even the intelligence info of the British services | |
14:42 | on the terror cells is strictly confidential. | |
14:57 | This mosque for example was built in the 80s | |
14:59 | and it is a home for first-generation Pakistani immigrants. | |
15:02 | Hello. Hello | |
15:06 | Since British intelligence started to follow mosque activities in Luton, | |
15:10 | the followers play it safe. | |
15:15 | They appear, at least on the surface, to separate themselves from underground terrorist activity | |
15:19 | which goes on in town’s mosques. | |
15:22 | This is the great mosque of Luton? | |
15:24 | The biggest? | |
15:26 | Yes. This is the biggest | |
15:29 | One of the youth members of the mosque, | |
15:31 | Majad Han, who immigrated to Britain from Pakistan, | |
15:34 | is not following the rules of discretion concerning visitors to the town’s mosques | |
15:39 | and reveals the reality | |
15:40 | which is quite rare to hear in public. | |
15:42 | What year did you left Pakistan? | |
15:45 | What year … | |
15:47 | 2007 | |
15:49 | During the war and … Yes | |
15:51 | Where are you from in Pakistan? | |
15:53 | North West | |
15:55 | North West | |
15:57 | This is the area! | |
15:59 | Yea, that’s the area | |
16:00 | Did you see Bin Laden by chance? No, no | |
16:02 | But I saw some people | |
16:05 | because my city was like that. | |
16:07 | Jihadis? Yes | |
16:13 | There are some brothers here … you could say they are Jihadis | |
16:16 | There are Jihadis here? Yes, there are. | |
16:18 | Salafis, Al Qaeda? Yes, Salafis, that one … | |
16:21 | Because of them the clashes began. | |
16:23 | I think they were brainwashed. | |
16:25 | But you know, these people | |
16:27 | who made the operation on the tube on July 7th, | |
16:32 | they were Muslims | |
16:33 | and they did it in the name of Muslims. | |
16:35 | The Jihadis did that. | |
16:36 | They see things around the world, | |
16:39 | in Iraq and Pakistan. – Pakistan | |
16:42 | Pakistan as well | |
16:44 | You go there and they train you. | |
16:47 | That’s what they believe. | |
16:48 | Maybe it’s wrong, but I don’t know. | |
16:50 | Is it easy to go to train and come back? | |
16:53 | Well… Yes. | |
17:00 | Where is the Salafis’ mosque here? | |
17:04 | Well, that’s in the center of the Berry Park, which is the Islamic center. | |
17:09 | Berry Park is here. I have to go to the right. | |
17:12 | That’s a mosque over there, to the left. | |
17:14 | I don’t know if you want to… | |
17:16 | Do you want to see that? | |
17:19 | 200 meters away, | |
17:20 | in the heart of the immigrants’ neighbourhood Berry Park, | |
17:22 | there is a mosque called “Luton Islamic Centre”. | |
17:47 | Hello. | |
17:48 | Do not be afraid of the camera. | |
17:52 | Do not be afraid, we are from Palestine. | |
17:55 | No one willing to be on camera. | |
17:56 | Why? I don’t know. | |
17:58 | Why? | |
17:59 | I don’t know. They don’t like? | |
18:00 | They don’t like that. | |
18:01 | Because of… Even before as well | |
18:03 | Because of what happened? No, not because of that. | |
18:05 | Even before what happened. | |
18:07 | Nobody wants to…. | |
18:08 | Let me… I don’t know. Wait, let me check. | |
18:10 | I’ll wait here | |
18:12 | Nobody wants to talk, certainly not about those who “graduated” from the mosque | |
18:14 | and were responsible for terror attacks around Europe | |
18:21 | Timor Abd Al Wahab, Stockholm’s suicide bomber, | |
18:23 | may be the classic example | |
18:25 | of the process which attracts many Luton youths | |
18:27 | to the mosques’ radical message. | |
18:30 | Timor, 28 years old, married and father of three, | |
18:32 | gave up his studies of physiotherapy in Bedford University of Luton | |
18:37 | after exposure to the mosque’s activities , in which apparently he was very interested. | |
18:42 | The training he received here | |
18:43 | could be found in the testament, in his own voice, made on the day of the attack. | |
18:48 | To all Muslims of Sweden I want to say: | |
18:50 | Stop degrading yourselves, stop trying to make them like you. | |
18:53 | You are getting yourselves further from Islam. | |
18:55 | This is the time to fight back, not to wait anymore, | |
18:59 | be violent, do not be afraid of death. | |
19:04 | Did you see that? He warns everyone now. | |
19:07 | One went out. | |
19:08 | Now he tells everyone there is a camera outside. | |
19:14 | Pretty quickly we get it that we are simply not welcome. | |
19:18 | That’s enough! Do not film! | |
19:21 | Enough. | |
19:31 | Islam is everywhere. | |
19:34 | 24 hours a day people are talking about Islam. | |
19:36 | People all over the world are working to establish Sharia. | |
19:39 | It’s a matter of time. | |
19:40 | It’s a promise of Allah, the one who created us, | |
19:42 | one who knows the beginning and the end. | |
19:44 | So these people they are nothing more than kuffar, | |
19:47 | they should study history. | |
19:50 | Every time they attack Muslims, | |
19:54 | they were defeated, it’s a matter of time and Allah … | |
19:57 | after suffering, victory will come. | |
19:59 | In Belgium we manage to find out what they refused to tell us in Luton. | |
20:03 | The youngsters I meet are especially suspicious. | |
20:06 | They prefer not to share their ideology | |
20:10 | Only after our knowledge of Koran was confirmed | |
20:12 | they agreed to open their doors, | |
20:14 | and before anything else they offer spontaneously | |
20:17 | to join them in prayer in the unusual place. | |
20:33 | Sharia is Islam, to be clear. | |
20:35 | There is no difference between Islam and Sharia. | |
20:37 | We believe that Sharia will dominate the world | |
20:40 | and of course, also Belgium. | |
20:42 | The leader of this group is Abu Imran, | |
20:44 | just 30 years old | |
20:45 | and already leads the group of youths determined in their beliefs. | |
20:48 | The Belgian police follow him everywhere, | |
20:51 | but until now abstained from arresting him. | |
20:53 | Every day Abu Imran crosses the red lines | |
20:55 | of the Belgian authorities. | |
20:57 | He is careful | |
20:58 | and refuses to cooperate with anyone who in his opinion | |
21:00 | belongs to the enemy forces. | |
21:02 | Democracy is the opposite of Sharia and Islam | |
21:05 | We believe that Allah is the legislator. | |
21:07 | Allah makes the laws. | |
21:09 | He is the one who tells us what’s allowed and what’s forbidden. | |
21:12 | He is famous in Belgium for his disdain of all country’s signs and emblems | |
21:16 | and calling for Jihad all over Belgium. | |
21:18 | He is convinced that only violent protests will eventually change the ways of Belgium. | |
21:23 | This is the flag that will, with Allah’s help, rise soon above this building. | |
21:27 | His latest provocation angered many in Belgium, | |
21:29 | it happened under “Atomium”, | |
21:31 | Eiffel tower of Brussels. | |
21:33 | Atomium is a huge monument | |
21:36 | made of nine connected steel spheres, symbolizing the Belgian regions. | |
21:40 | We promise to clean Belgium | |
21:44 | from the system of paganism, | |
21:47 | and from all the false gods of this system. | |
21:49 | And then we’ll destroy this symbol, this monument. | |
21:52 | “Learn the meaning of beautiful Sharia, | |
21:54 | pray to die as Shahids…” | |
21:58 | Who from you is in this picture? Where are you? I’m here | |
22:03 | Abu Atek. | |
22:05 | And where are you? The one with the keffiyeh? It’s me, here. Nice. | |
22:10 | Very nice! You look like a sheikh | |
22:13 | We were in Brussels, on our way home, | |
22:15 | but we saw some cars going into the parking, the house of the king, | |
22:21 | so we said, “Let’s make a video in front of the palace, | |
22:24 | to provoke.” | |
22:25 | The reason we pray in the streets | |
22:27 | is because Abu Bahar did it. | |
22:29 | He’s one… first followers of Islam. Yes | |
22:33 | He always prayed in front of his door | |
22:35 | He never prays in his house. Why? | |
22:37 | So that he can provoke, make them mad. | |
22:41 | That’s why we pray in streets. | |
22:43 | This is a kind of da’wa. | |
22:44 | The kuffar, when they go by, they must see we are praying to our god. | |
22:47 | When you pray, how are Belgians reacting? | |
22:52 | For them it’s Islam, | |
22:53 | Islam for them is something very bad. | |
22:55 | They’d rather have alcohol and drugs and kill people on the streets | |
22:58 | than pray on the street. | |
23:00 | When the Sharia is implemented here in Belgium | |
23:03 | we gonna remove this tower. | |
23:19 | One cannot ignore the key problem of Belgium, | |
23:21 | the young generation of Muslims. | |
23:23 | The same generation with very high rates of unemployment, | |
23:27 | which grows up to 5 times faster than in the general Belgium population, | |
23:29 | the young generation that does not integrate, | |
23:30 | the young generation which says to their parents: | |
23:32 | “We have to go back to Islam”. | |
23:34 | It is sort of social revolution which reminds me of the events in Israel. | |
23:37 | The children decide what’s going to happen, | |
23:39 | and it’s the same thing for this generation, | |
23:40 | to integrate or to revolt? | |
23:42 | This is the choice they have to make, | |
23:43 | and it’s a ticking time bomb, | |
23:45 | the fourth generation. | |
23:47 | All of you born in Europe? I was born here | |
23:50 | I went to Catholic school. Catholic school? | |
23:53 | Yes I went to Catholic school, because I was born here. | |
23:55 | Your parents came from Morocco? No, my parents were also born here. | |
23:59 | So, you’re third generation. Third generation, yeah. | |
24:02 | I went to school, | |
24:05 | they gave me history lessons. | |
24:07 | They never said that there is Islamic state. | |
24:11 | Islamic world. Islam in the world | |
24:13 | for 1400 years. I never knew that. | |
24:16 | And they never teach me that. | |
24:18 | They just teach us about their heroes | |
24:20 | The Romans, Charlemagne, Hercules. | |
24:24 | and those who fought Islam. Yes, yes , those who fought against Islam. | |
24:29 | That’s their system. | |
24:30 | Erase the history of the Muslims. | |
24:33 | They teach you theory of evolution, | |
24:35 | We were monkeys before | |
24:37 | and then after that we became human, the superior. | |
24:42 | you have to clean your hands after you been to the toilet. | |
24:45 | Stupid things. | |
24:46 | 90 percent of their studies is nonsense. | |
24:50 | We have 42 Catholic schools, 17 Jewish schools, | |
24:55 | but none of the Islamic schools. | |
24:57 | So we have to go to one of those schools. | |
24:59 | So when we go to school, | |
25:01 | Like, Christian school, | |
25:02 | so when we start eating we say “bismilla”, | |
25:04 | they said to stand up and do like this | |
25:07 | When we finish and say “Hamdulilla” | |
25:09 | they say no, don’t say that | |
25:10 | say “Excuse me”. That’s what they teach you. | |
25:12 | The problem there is the state forcing some things in that direction. | |
25:20 | Like forbidding veiling, | |
25:22 | forbidding the burka, | |
25:24 | forbidding minarets, | |
25:25 | forbidding these things. | |
25:27 | Klaus Kuhnke, professor of social studies, Jacobs University, Germany | |
25:29 | This has shown as clearly… the evidence is very clear | |
25:32 | that this plays into the hands of extremists. | |
25:36 | In the Arab world, or in the Muslim world in general, | |
25:39 | which country is the closest to your world view? | |
25:44 | Afghanistan, Somalia and Yemen. | |
25:45 | Abu Fares, “Sharia4Belgium” | |
25:47 | Yemen and those areas, Hadramaut, | |
25:51 | these are places totally under Muslim control. | |
25:56 | There people are safe. | |
25:59 | Pakistan also, South Pakistan… | |
26:01 | Waziristan, yes. | |
26:03 | What do you think about sheikh Osama (Bin Laden)? | |
26:09 | Sheikh Osama, may Allah have mercy on his soul. | |
26:12 | He is the best man of this era. | |
26:17 | Yes, Allah have mercy on his soul. | |
26:18 | For me to speak of Sheikh Osama, | |
26:22 | I am not worthy. Who am I? | |
26:24 | I am like dirt under his fingernails | |
26:29 | I am not worthy of Sheikh Osama. | |
26:30 | What did you feel when they found and killed him last year? | |
26:34 | What did you feel when you heard the news? | |
26:38 | Sadness, sadness. We were sad but happy at the same time. | |
26:43 | Why were you happy? Because he died as a martyr. | |
26:47 | London, Britain | |
26:51 | This is a call to all Muslims! | |
26:53 | Islam’ll never die! | |
26:55 | The Sharia’ll never die! | |
26:57 | The Jihad’ll never die! | |
26:58 | Sheikh Osama Ben Laden passed away, like a shahid (martyr). | |
27:04 | Members of “Sharia4Belgium” are not alone. | |
27:05 | There are other groups, and their followers in different capitals of Europe | |
27:08 | with headquarters in London | |
27:10 | and their leader is Sheikh Anjem Choudary. | |
27:12 | We will implement the Koran in Brussels and in Europe, | |
27:16 | and one day, Allah willing, | |
27:18 | a group will rise | |
27:19 | and they will implement the sharia. | |
27:21 | and fly the flag “there is no god but Allah” from the White House. | |
27:24 | Praise be to Allah! Allahu Akhbar! | |
27:27 | Choudary, a London resident, | |
27:28 | was arrested a few times on suspicion of inciting loudly against Britain. | |
27:32 | Cameron, you will pay! | |
27:35 | The organisations he led were proclaimed illegal | |
27:38 | after encouraging jihad in mosques. | |
27:42 | Maybe he is here. | |
27:44 | The arrests and the shadowing by the British police | |
27:46 | caused Choudary to be very suspicious. | |
27:48 | We will wait for Anjem. | |
27:49 | Again and again we tried to make an appointment with him at the religious centre he manages, | |
27:53 | but our requests were denied under pretext of being followed by security forces. | |
27:58 | Are you all Muslims? Yes. Why? Raise your hand, Muslims! | |
28:02 | Come with me. | |
28:04 | Palestinians, yes? Yes. | |
28:05 | So, now we go in? Yes. | |
28:07 | Take off the shoes? It’s a mosque? | |
28:11 | Are you recording everything, yes? | |
28:13 | In regular interviews to the European press | |
28:15 | you won’t hear him saying these things. | |
28:17 | When it is for Palestinian ears, he feels free to express himself. | |
28:21 | 7/7 is a reaction to the foreign policy of the Bush government | |
28:26 | and the domestic policy. If you look at … | |
28:28 | But formula .. | |
28:30 | that the British do something in Iraq and Afghanistan | |
28:33 | and you can revenge them in the tube? | |
28:35 | Definitely. There is an Islamic opinion on that. | |
28:38 | People like sheikh Ayman al-Zawahiri, Sheikh Osama Ben Laden et cetera … | |
28:42 | You call him sheikh? Of course. | |
28:43 | I believe that Allah created two camps in the world. | |
28:49 | The camp of believers and camp of the unbelievers. | |
28:51 | In the middle is just hypocrites. | |
28:53 | Either you’re in one camp or you’re in the other camp. | |
28:55 | So those people who want to be sitting on the fence, | |
28:57 | the fence is very uncomfortable. | |
28:58 | You have to be in one or the other. | |
28:59 | George Bush himself said: | |
29:01 | “You are with us or you’re with the terrorists” | |
29:03 | So if you made me make a choice, | |
29:05 | you’re not going to be siding with the George Bush, are you? | |
29:10 | Holy s***! | |
29:14 | Since the mega attack on 9/11 2001 | |
29:17 | when Al Qaeda succeeded in murdering more than 3000 people in the USA, | |
29:22 | the crisis started to brew between Europeans and Muslim immigrants. | |
29:26 | After 9/11 | |
29:27 | all the books on Islam sold out in America. | |
29:29 | Yeah, of course, just to know who did it. | |
29:31 | But after that many people became Muslims. | |
29:34 | They bought the books | |
29:35 | thinking they will attack Islam and the Muslims | |
29:37 | they ended up discovering the truth. | |
29:39 | So sometimes when you fear something, | |
29:41 | you seek knowledge about it then you realize that was wrong. | |
29:43 | So actually 11th September did good for Islam? | |
29:45 | Of course. I do believe that the 11th of September | |
29:49 | was a milestone. | |
29:51 | Since, particularly since 9/11 | |
29:53 | there is a certain basic animosity | |
29:57 | in right side of the political spectrum | |
29:59 | that would say: “No, we essentially don’t want these people here. | |
30:03 | If they are here, they have to behave very calm | |
30:06 | and they don’t always do that”. | |
30:08 | And that’s after 9/11, | |
30:10 | there was kind of spill-over effect | |
30:13 | from these terrorist attacks in New York | |
30:18 | or later in London and Madrid, | |
30:20 | it was very clear that all Muslims are kind of part of huge conspiracy. | |
30:27 | Marseille, France | |
30:37 | They call us “immigrants” | |
30:40 | There are Bosnians, Serbs, Tunisians, Moroccans, Algerians | |
30:48 | Italians, Spanish, British, from everywhere. | |
30:54 | And only us, Arabs, they call “immigrants”. | |
30:59 | Why only Arabs? | |
31:01 | The French label Arabs as “immigrants”. | |
31:07 | “Those Arabs” | |
31:10 | This is the soccer club. | |
31:12 | Jamal, youth soccer teams coach | |
31:14 | in the troubled areas of Marseille, France | |
31:16 | is dealing with the real reasons for the younger generation’s affinity for religion. | |
31:20 | I work here with children so that they’ll play … | |
31:27 | so that they’ll study and go to work … | |
31:35 | everything so that they do good things and grow up as good children. | |
31:42 | They will not grow up as criminals and murderers. | |
31:48 | The coach thinks that it all starts with the image of Muslims in Europe. | |
31:51 | The image that in the last decade was mortally damaged. | |
31:55 | Whoever sees this person, with a beard and this hat … | |
32:00 | will not say he is a Muslim. | |
32:03 | Any French who sees you, will not say you are a Muslim, | |
32:08 | will not say, “He is a Muslim”, they will say, “He is a terrorist” | |
32:12 | Why are they afraid? | |
32:13 | They are afraid of this, | |
32:15 | they get scared and lower their eyes. | |
32:18 | Why? | |
32:19 | Does he wear a suicide west? | |
32:22 | Does he have a Kalashnikov? Does he have anything? | |
32:24 | He does not. All he has is a phone … | |
32:29 | Hello, | |
32:31 | what happens when the boys here are sent to prison, what can I do? | |
32:39 | I try. | |
32:47 | Those are the places where 4th generation identity is created. | |
32:51 | The same identity which says, “I am French, | |
32:53 | I am here to stay, | |
32:54 | but I am also strengthening my Muslim identity | |
32:56 | because not all of French society’s opportunities are open to me” | |
33:00 | and the 4th generation does not want to go back to the countries of their origin, | |
33:03 | to Morocco, Tunisia or Algeria, | |
33:05 | but to stay here, keep their Muslim identity | |
33:07 | and live in the place which keeps this identity | |
33:09 | like these poverty-stricken neighbourhoods in Marseille. | |
33:19 | Are you making a movie? Yes, we are. | |
33:22 | Hi, nice to meet you. | |
33:25 | Muhamad Randuri, Marseille | |
33:27 | Me personally, | |
33:28 | if I had an option to choose whether to live here or in my country, | |
33:32 | I’d choose my country. | |
33:33 | You certainly remember how it was 25 years ago. | |
33:35 | It wasn’t like that. Really? | |
33:38 | Because when we came here, we did not plan to stay. | |
33:43 | All we wanted is to make some money and build the house back at home. | |
33:47 | Today the young are looking for a job and cannot find one, | |
33:49 | search for a place to live and cannot find one, | |
33:52 | that’s why they find a kind of refuge in religion. | |
33:57 | Do your children want to become French? No, they do not want to. | |
34:01 | And if we ask them what are they first, French, Muslim or Moroccans? | |
34:06 | They will tell you that they are Muslims first, then French. | |
34:09 | In order to stabilize your identity, | |
34:12 | I think you need more of your religion, more of your culture | |
34:16 | Then of course the third and the fourth generation, | |
34:19 | of course they criticize both their parents’ generation | |
34:24 | and their general surroundings. | |
34:27 | But you are the generation that say, “No more”. | |
34:29 | Yes, no more. | |
34:30 | Why can they beat us? | |
34:31 | Why can they spit on us? | |
34:34 | Why can they do everything to us and we can do nothing? | |
34:36 | Where is the freedom you talk about? | |
34:38 | Freedom, freedom, everyone says freedom. | |
34:40 | Freedom from religion. Freedom to disobey Allah. | |
34:43 | Here is the brother, he goes to school, | |
34:45 | and when he prays at school, | |
34:48 | they make everything difficult. Wow. | |
34:51 | They don’t like it. | |
34:53 | And he prays when it’s pause. | |
34:58 | When it’s pause. | |
34:59 | Some people are going to smoke, some people are going to have sex, | |
35:03 | but this brother he takes responsibility | |
35:06 | and he goes to pray. | |
35:07 | They said to me: “You can’t show at school that you’re a Muslim.” | |
35:11 | That’s what they said to me. Who told you, the teacher? | |
35:13 | My director. Principal. | |
35:16 | That’s what he said to me. | |
35:18 | I went many times to speak with him | |
35:22 | and every time he said to me: “Yes, it’s true what you’re saying | |
35:26 | but we can’t allow it.” | |
35:27 | And you know what the danger was? | |
35:28 | They said: “Look, the boy started to pray alone in the courtyard, | |
35:33 | but then there were two, then there were five, | |
35:36 | then there were ten.” | |
35:38 | They said wow. | |
35:39 | And then they said: “We’ll give you a classroom | |
35:41 | because when you are praying in the courtyard, everybody sees you, | |
35:44 | many go with you.” | |
35:46 | Go, go! Here is a key to the classroom, go pray there”. | |
35:50 | But then more came | |
35:52 | and then they said: “No, no we need to stop this”. | |
35:54 | The anger and frustration over social and financial issues are the lever | |
35:57 | to hang onto for those such as Abu Imran, Anjem Choudary and others, | |
36:01 | so that they can solicit donations and recruit new believers. | |
36:04 | The youth needs to be nurtured, | |
36:06 | the young who stand on the corners, everywhere, | |
36:08 | work in the corners, lean against walls, | |
36:10 | they have to be nurtured. | |
36:12 | We need Muslim men and women | |
36:15 | to raise our children in Islam, | |
36:19 | and then the children won’t go to “50 cent”, crime and drugs, | |
36:25 | they will grow up and will remove crime and drugs from society; | |
36:29 | this is the role of Muslims. | |
36:31 | Wherever we look, the Muslims are rising. | |
36:34 | Wherever we look, they are removing the tyrant regimes. | |
36:38 | Wherever we look the Sharia is alive | |
36:42 | There are not enough, if you like, places | |
36:47 | for those people who want to die as a martyr, | |
36:49 | in Iraq and Afghanistan. There are queues. | |
36:51 | Muslims literally are queuing up | |
36:55 | to be part of the struggle. | |
36:56 | And the mujahideen say: “Look, we don’t need you. | |
36:58 | we have too many people already.” | |
37:00 | And this is a big problem for the American-led alliance | |
37:04 | People are being radicalized in their backyard, | |
37:06 | you don’t have to go outside of your country. | |
37:08 | They can be under the radar, they don’t need passports. | |
37:11 | All they need is access to the internet. | |
37:12 | You can sit in Paris and you can download material | |
37:15 | and you can make your bomb in your mother’s kitchen. | |
37:17 | I work with Al Qaeda. I have superiors. | |
37:21 | I am not alone, do you understand? | |
37:24 | The most prominent example of the radicalization of the 3rd and 4th generations | |
37:28 | are the terror attacks by Mohamad Merah in Toulouse. | |
37:31 | Merah, who murdered 3 French soldiers and 4 Jews | |
37:34 | in two different attacks, | |
37:36 | was the first terrorist born on French soil. | |
37:38 | “I love death as you love life.” | |
37:42 | He grew up in a poor Muslim neighbourhood | |
37:44 | and was recruited as a boy by the extreme group “Fursan Al-Izza”, | |
37:48 | which was outlawed. | |
37:49 | He described himself as a warrior of Islam, | |
37:52 | and a representative of Al Qaeda in Europe. | |
37:54 | What did Mohamed Merah say? | |
37:55 | “Because you attack Muslims, | |
37:57 | Afghanistan, you don’t let Muslims pray, | |
38:00 | Palestine occupation, | |
38:01 | withdraw your forces from our lands | |
38:04 | and we’ll stop attacking you.” | |
38:06 | Jihad! Jihad! Jihad! | |
38:10 | The biggest enemy to Allah and his messenger today | |
38:14 | is Barack Obama | |
38:16 | and his regime. | |
38:18 | I simply see no the reason why we should tolerate people coming to Britain | |
38:22 | and being paid welfare by the taxpayer | |
38:24 | Douglas Murray, journalist. | |
38:25 | when all they use this country for | |
38:28 | is as a base to ferment hatred against our allies and our friends. | |
38:32 | The more you practice Islam, | |
38:34 | the more there’ll be hatred from the camp of non-Islam. | |
38:37 | You know sometimes they say he’s the most hated man in Britain | |
38:40 | And they demonize and vilify you on a daily basis, | |
38:42 | For me if I am called a terrorist, extremist or fanatic | |
38:48 | it is a medallion on our chest at the day of judgment. | |
38:50 | They say “terrorist”, I say Allahu Akhbar. | |
38:52 | You are a great speaker by the way for Islam. | |
38:55 | I think if I was the state I would arrest you tomorrow. | |
38:59 | This morning! Well, maybe they are coming for you as well. | |
39:05 | God save us from cursed Satan. | |
39:11 | Shortly after we’ve met | |
39:13 | with the very small inner circle of “Sharia4Belgium”, | |
39:16 | the security forces decide to arrest Abu Imran. | |
39:19 | They came into his house. | |
39:20 | They arrested him for some trivial thing, | |
39:23 | because he spoke about laws of religion. | |
39:27 | They arrested him at home, entered his house. | |
39:30 | They broke down the door, they came in. | |
39:32 | He was sleeping with his wife. Their baby was with them. | |
39:38 | They took him, covered his eyes | |
39:43 | and took him to jail. | |
39:46 | The group of young men who follow activities of Abu Imran | |
39:49 | is now orphaned. | |
39:51 | Abu Fares, the faithful deputy of Abu Imran, | |
39:53 | is now the leader. | |
39:55 | Tomorrow, god willing, it will happen: | |
39:58 | Abu Imran will stand before a judge. | |
40:01 | In addition they want to destroy us and prove we are violent group. | |
40:06 | They must know for every action there is a reaction. | |
40:09 | That’s how it is. | |
40:11 | Abu Imran knew that there is a day that will come and he’s gonna be in prison. | |
40:17 | He knew that, we all knew that. | |
40:19 | You knew? Yes. | |
40:20 | You know that one day you’ll be in prison? | |
40:22 | The truth, I admit intentionally, I am going to teach you, | |
40:25 | there is no one else. | |
40:26 | Good Muslim is in jail or on his way to jail | |
40:30 | that’s a good Muslim. | |
40:31 | They gonna take us to prison? They gonna take our nationality? | |
40:33 | Take our nationality, we don’t want it. | |
40:35 | Here, take. Take it. Where is it? | |
40:38 | Here, see. | |
40:40 | They can take it from us. We don’t need it. | |
40:42 | This is the Belgian ID? | |
40:45 | Like I told you, they have their nationality, | |
40:47 | and we have “there is no god but Allah” everywhere. | |
40:49 | That’s the only thing we want. | |
40:50 | Allah, lead us in the righteous way. Amen | |
40:53 | Allah, who will release Muslim prisoners. Amen | |
40:59 | Allah, keep us and our brother Abu Imran safe. Amen | |
41:03 | The decision by Belgian police to stop ignoring | |
41:07 | the provocations and incitement by Abu Imran | |
41:10 | and the group he was the leader of | |
41:12 | is a sign of the next step in the power struggle of two sides, | |
41:15 | and it looks like the question now is what will come first, | |
41:19 | Europe’s awakening to religious radicalization and terror cells activities | |
41:22 | or unrest of the young Muslims on their way to wage Jihad in Europe. | |
41:29 | Europe needs to wake up to what is happening in our own countries. | |
41:33 | We never gonna stop. Never. | |
41:35 | Even in prison we gonna do our da’wa. | |
41:37 | If I breathe, I will continue. | |
41:40 | Islam is a religion | |
41:41 | observed peacefully and devoutly by over a billion people. | |
41:46 | Islamist extremism is a political ideology | |
41:50 | supported by a minority. | |
41:52 | We will go through this stage. | |
41:53 | We will be boycotted, we’ll be arrested, we’ll be raided, | |
41:56 | but eventually the victory is with Allah, | |
41:58 | so it could be in this life it could be in the hereafter, | |
42:00 | but ultimately we will attain the victory | |
42:02 | and Allah will make sure his law will prevail on Earth. | |
42:05 | At stake a re not just lives, it is our way of life. | |
42:09 | That is why this is a challenge we cannot avoid. | |
42:13 | It is one we must rise to and overcome. | |
42:16 | What can my enemies do to me? | |
42:18 | If they lock me up, I have paradise in my heart. | |
42:22 | If they kill me I become a martyr, god willing. | |
42:24 | We are now here and we will stay here | |
42:26 | and we will establish Islam here. | |
42:29 | That’s our main objective, | |
42:31 | we will establish Islam here, in Europe. | |
42:33 | I am a witness there is no other god but you | |
42:38 | We ask for your forgiveness | |
42:39 | praise the god, the ruler of all worlds | |
42:43 | Praise! Allahu Akhbar! | |
42:51 | in the next part … | |
42:53 | There is anti-Semitism here. | |
42:54 | From whom? | |
42:55 | The youngsters from Middle East you could say. | |
42:58 | I call them Muslims. | |
43:00 | I got beaten up, just because I was a Jew. | |
43:02 | One girl she wrote on the wall ” Jew whore” | |
43:05 | It is a kind of equation, | |
43:07 | Jewish=Zionist, Zionists=Israel, | |
43:11 | Israel=Nazism. | |
43:13 | Do you have any proof my cartoons | |
43:15 | are causing people to beat Jews in the streets? | |
43:17 | He beat him up! and said “Are you proud to be a Jew now?” | |
43:20 | The Arab in Malmö in 21st century asks if a Jew is proud to be a Jew! | |
43:25 | The problem is in Israel. | |
43:27 | When the Israeli tries to enter a mosque, | |
43:29 | the Muslims drive him out . | |
43:31 | So I am driving you out now. |
