We live in a dangerous time.

I don't need to tell you that.

Our enemies used to be overseas,

and we could see them
in tanks and airplanes.

They wore uniforms,

and we fought them on battlefields.

But now we're living on the battlefield,

and we can't see the enemy.

They look like us.

They talk like us. They live
down the hallway from us.

We only find out who they are

and the damage they want to do
after they've done it.

After they've shot up a nightclub.

Or blown up a marathon.

Or brought down a building.

Or two.

The only chance we have
to fight these enemies

is to find out who they are

before they do these terrible things,

and that's what
these fine agents did here.

They found a dangerous man

who was willing to commit
an unspeakable crime,

and they stopped him.

Ms. Bell wants you to believe
that our government did this.

Ask yourself how much money,
how much time would it take

to convince you to blow the head
off the Statue of Liberty?

"The function of law enforcement
is the prevention of crime

and the apprehension of criminals.

Manifestly, that function
does not include

the manufacturing of crime."

Chief Justice of the United States

Earl Warren wrote that 60 years ago

in a case that came out
of this very courtroom,

decided by a jury sitting

in the same seats
you're sitting in today.

That man is not a criminal,

and law enforcement
prevented no crime here.

They manufactured a crime.

Instead of hunting actual terrorists,

your government tried
to make a terrorist.

They contacted him. They befriended him.

They trained him.

They picked a target for him.
They built a bomb for him.

They made him.

♪♪

This is Mohammed Fayed.

This is Mohammed Fayed.

And that is what they made.

It's easy to become distracted
in a case like this.

To become emotional.
To focus on the wrong things.

But this case is about one thing
and one thing only.

It is about the power of
the United States government

being used to systematically
target and manipulate

and incarcerate American citizens

because of their religion,
their ethnicity,

their national origin, their color.

It is an awesome power.

But what you have today
is even more powerful.

You have the power to say no.
You have the power to resist.

In this courthouse, in this courtroom,

in those seats today,

you have the awesome power of justice...

and there's nothing
more powerful than that.

Mr. Oliver. Is this true?

I'll keep it off the record
