00:00:04,672 --> 00:00:06,712
dissidents armed to kill...
4
00:00:06,707 --> 00:00:08,037
>> CLINT VAN ZANDT: Because you
5
00:00:08,042 --> 00:00:09,542
put on a uniform in this
6
00:00:09,543 --> 00:00:11,453
country doesn't mean you adopt
7
00:00:11,445 --> 00:00:14,745
what this country stands for.
8
00:00:14,748 --> 00:00:16,078
>> NARRATOR: ... sociopathic
9
00:00:16,084 --> 00:00:18,194
outsiders harboring hatred...

>> MAN: Get them out!
11
00:00:19,287 --> 00:00:20,317
>> MANCOW MULLER: Why would they
12
00:00:20,321 --> 00:00:22,091
turn against America? Why?
13
00:00:22,090 --> 00:00:23,220
We took care of them.
14
00:00:23,224 --> 00:00:24,234
>> NARRATOR: ...religious
15
00:00:24,225 --> 00:00:26,155
zealots plotting mass
16
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:27,630
destruction...
17
00:00:27,628 --> 00:00:28,698
>> DARYL JOHNSON: They carried
18
00:00:28,696 --> 00:00:31,096
out 17 firebombings and ten
19
00:00:31,099 --> 00:00:32,499
political assassinations within
20
00:00:32,500 --> 00:00:34,240
the United States.
21
00:00:34,235 --> 00:00:35,465
>> NARRATOR: ...and all of them
22
00:00:35,469 --> 00:00:37,739
hiding in plain sight.
23
00:00:37,738 --> 00:00:39,068
>> LAURA SULLIVAN: If you can
24
00:00:39,073 --> 00:00:40,713
blend in with American society
25
00:00:40,708 --> 00:00:42,378
and keep your mouth shut,
26
00:00:42,376 --> 00:00:43,636
there's a high probability that
27
00:00:43,644 --> 00:00:46,214
your attack is gonna succeed.
28
00:00:46,214 --> 00:00:47,354
>> NARRATOR: But just who are
29
00:00:47,348 --> 00:00:49,448
these killers in our midst?
30
00:00:49,450 --> 00:00:50,580
>> MICHAEL DOWNING: It's people
31
00:00:50,584 --> 00:00:52,224
that look like you and I.
32
00:00:52,220 --> 00:00:53,350
>> NARRATOR: And is there any
33
00:00:53,354 --> 00:00:56,164
way to stop them?
34
00:00:59,227 --> 00:01:00,657
There are those who believe in
35
00:01:00,661 --> 00:01:04,501
the existence of a book.
36
00:01:04,498 --> 00:01:06,328
A book that contains the most
37
00:01:06,334 --> 00:01:09,244
highly guarded secrets of the
38
00:01:09,237 --> 00:01:12,237
United States of America.
39
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:16,110
A book... whose very existence
40
00:01:16,110 --> 00:01:20,510
is known to only a select few.
41
00:01:20,514 --> 00:01:23,424
But if such a book exists,
42
00:01:23,417 --> 00:01:25,887
what would it contain?
43
00:01:25,886 --> 00:01:28,686
Secret alliances?
44
00:01:28,689 --> 00:01:30,159
Secret agendas?
45
00:01:30,158 --> 00:01:32,758
(gun cocks)
46
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,400
Secret threats?
47
00:01:36,397 --> 00:01:39,227
Does there really exist
48
00:01:39,233 --> 00:01:42,443
America's Book of Secrets?
49
00:01:54,548 --> 00:01:56,848
September 11, 2001.
50
00:01:56,850 --> 00:01:58,820
(jet engines whooshing)
51
00:02:02,556 --> 00:02:03,556
(shouting, screaming)
52
00:02:03,557 --> 00:02:05,427
New York City...
53
00:02:05,426 --> 00:02:08,296
Washington, DC...
54
00:02:08,296 --> 00:02:10,726
Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
55
00:02:10,731 --> 00:02:12,171
>> MAN: Jump!
56
00:02:12,166 --> 00:02:14,266
>> NARRATOR: For most Americans,
57
00:02:14,268 --> 00:02:16,838
the word "terrorism" conjures
58
00:02:16,837 --> 00:02:19,737
images of the 9/11 attacks--
59
00:02:19,740 --> 00:02:21,580
a devastating and deadly strike
60
00:02:21,575 --> 00:02:23,175
against the United States
61
00:02:23,177 --> 00:02:25,207
executed by Osama bin Laden's
62
00:02:25,213 --> 00:02:27,283
foreign militant organization
63
00:02:27,281 --> 00:02:29,251
known as Al-Qaeda.
64
00:02:32,353 --> 00:02:33,753
(man speaking indistinctly)
65
00:02:33,754 --> 00:02:34,764
>> NARRATOR: But perhaps even
66
00:02:34,755 --> 00:02:36,355
more frightening than the
67
00:02:36,357 --> 00:02:37,857
terrorists whose plots are
68
00:02:37,858 --> 00:02:41,198
hatched from overseas... are
69
00:02:41,195 --> 00:02:42,755
those who plot against America
70
00:02:42,763 --> 00:02:44,873
from within its borders...
71
00:02:46,234 --> 00:02:48,574
...terrorists who live, work and
72
00:02:48,569 --> 00:02:51,639
play right beside us...
73
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,639
terrorists who will stop at
74
00:02:53,641 --> 00:02:55,381
nothing to cause mass
75
00:02:55,376 --> 00:02:57,976
destruction, even if it involves
76
00:02:57,978 --> 00:02:59,548
killing their friends and
77
00:02:59,580 --> 00:03:03,350
neighbors.
78
00:03:03,351 --> 00:03:04,651
>> VAN ZANDT: When we look at
79
00:03:04,652 --> 00:03:06,522
an American terrorist, this is
80
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,360
someone, by and large, is an
81
00:03:08,356 --> 00:03:11,986
American who salutes the flag,
82
00:03:11,992 --> 00:03:14,232
who stands up with the National
83
00:03:14,228 --> 00:03:15,898
Anthem, who goes to baseball
84
00:03:15,896 --> 00:03:18,266
games, and then goes home in his
85
00:03:18,266 --> 00:03:21,536
basement and builds bombs.
86
00:03:21,535 --> 00:03:22,595
>> JOHNSON: Domestic terrorism--
87
00:03:22,603 --> 00:03:24,273
I can sum it up in three words:
88
00:03:24,272 --> 00:03:25,372
ideologically motivated
89
00:03:25,406 --> 00:03:27,406
violence.
90
00:03:27,408 --> 00:03:28,808
Domestic terrorism's occurring
91
00:03:28,809 --> 00:03:30,009
about every other month here
92
00:03:30,010 --> 00:03:31,950
in this country.
93
00:03:33,814 --> 00:03:35,424
>> NARRATOR: Although the FBI's
94
00:03:35,416 --> 00:03:36,816
Terrorist Screening Center
95
00:03:36,817 --> 00:03:38,517
has an official terrorist watch
96
00:03:38,519 --> 00:03:40,689
list, authorities state that the
97
00:03:40,688 --> 00:03:42,518
exact number of American
98
00:03:42,523 --> 00:03:45,833
terrorists is unknown.
99
00:03:45,826 --> 00:03:48,396
Some experts estimate they could
100
00:03:48,396 --> 00:03:51,326
number in the tens of thousands.
101
00:03:53,534 --> 00:03:54,844
Boston, Massachusetts.
102
00:03:54,835 --> 00:03:58,765
April 15, 2013-- Patriots' Day.
103
00:03:58,772 --> 00:04:00,372
(man speaking indistinctly over
104
00:04:00,374 --> 00:04:01,584
P.A., people cheering)
105
00:04:01,575 --> 00:04:02,975
As Boston Marathon runners cross
106
00:04:02,976 --> 00:04:04,946
the finish line...
107
00:04:07,848 --> 00:04:09,978
(people screaming)
108
00:04:09,983 --> 00:04:12,053
...two consecutive explosions
109
00:04:12,052 --> 00:04:14,592
send shrapnel flying into the
110
00:04:14,588 --> 00:04:15,958
crowded streets.
111
00:04:15,956 --> 00:04:17,956
(explosion)
112
00:04:17,958 --> 00:04:19,888
(panicked shouts)
113
00:04:21,962 --> 00:04:22,962
>> OFFICER: Watch out!
114
00:04:22,963 --> 00:04:24,973
Watch out! Watch out!
115
00:04:24,965 --> 00:04:26,465
>> NARRATOR: Three people are
116
00:04:26,467 --> 00:04:28,867
mercilessly murdered, and more
117
00:04:28,869 --> 00:04:30,969
than 260 are wounded.
118
00:04:30,971 --> 00:04:33,711
Four days later, one suspected
119
00:04:33,707 --> 00:04:36,437
terrorist is killed, and the
120
00:04:36,444 --> 00:04:38,884
FBI launches an unprecedented
121
00:04:38,879 --> 00:04:41,679
search for a second terrorist,
122
00:04:41,682 --> 00:04:43,752
by locking down the entire city
123
00:04:43,751 --> 00:04:46,351
of Boston.
124
00:04:46,354 --> 00:04:48,594
Within hours, a resident of
125
00:04:48,589 --> 00:04:51,089
nearby Watertown, Massachusetts,
126
00:04:51,091 --> 00:04:53,461
discovers the suspect hiding in
127
00:04:53,494 --> 00:04:57,504
a boat in his very own backyard.
128
00:04:57,498 --> 00:04:58,728
>> SEAN MURPHY: When I came into
129
00:04:58,732 --> 00:05:00,502
Watertown, there was absolutely
130
00:05:00,501 --> 00:05:01,601
no one on the roads.
131
00:05:01,602 --> 00:05:02,902
There were no vehicles around.
132
00:05:02,903 --> 00:05:04,003
It was surreal.
133
00:05:04,004 --> 00:05:05,374
It was like a ghost town.
134
00:05:05,373 --> 00:05:06,543
I'd never seen anything like it
135
00:05:06,574 --> 00:05:08,584
before in my life.
136
00:05:08,576 --> 00:05:10,576
We had hundreds of federal,
137
00:05:10,578 --> 00:05:12,348
state and local police officers
138
00:05:12,346 --> 00:05:14,516
here.
139
00:05:14,515 --> 00:05:15,645
When I got to about here, I
140
00:05:15,649 --> 00:05:17,019
noticed to my left that there
141
00:05:17,017 --> 00:05:18,617
was a boat in the driveway.
142
00:05:18,619 --> 00:05:19,749
I knew that if there was someone
143
00:05:19,753 --> 00:05:21,523
in the boat, they could see me.
144
00:05:21,522 --> 00:05:22,992
So my first thought was to take
145
00:05:22,990 --> 00:05:23,990
cover.
146
00:05:23,991 --> 00:05:25,391
So I was in that house with all
147
00:05:25,393 --> 00:05:26,393
the snipers.
148
00:05:26,394 --> 00:05:27,604
And when the suspect first
149
00:05:27,595 --> 00:05:29,455
showed his face and hands in the
150
00:05:29,463 --> 00:05:30,863
boat, that's when I knew it was
151
00:05:30,864 --> 00:05:32,074
absolutely real.
152
00:05:32,065 --> 00:05:33,065
That's when I knew we had this
153
00:05:33,066 --> 00:05:34,066
guy.
154
00:05:34,067 --> 00:05:35,497
What happened here in Watertown
155
00:05:35,503 --> 00:05:37,043
could have happened anywhere.
156
00:05:37,037 --> 00:05:38,537
This could have been anyone's
157
00:05:38,539 --> 00:05:40,939
backyard.
158
00:05:40,941 --> 00:05:42,141
>> NARRATOR: With one of the
159
00:05:42,142 --> 00:05:43,782
terrorists dead, and another
160
00:05:43,777 --> 00:05:45,507
captured, Boston breathes a sigh
161
00:05:45,513 --> 00:05:47,623
of relief.
162
00:05:47,615 --> 00:05:48,815
But a nation is left
163
00:05:48,816 --> 00:05:50,676
wondering-- just who were these
164
00:05:50,684 --> 00:05:52,794
terrorists?
165
00:05:52,786 --> 00:05:53,946
And what made them want to
166
00:05:53,954 --> 00:05:56,394
commit mass murder in the very
167
00:05:56,424 --> 00:05:59,664
country they called home?
168
00:05:59,660 --> 00:06:00,960
>> SULLIVAN: The Boston bombers
169
00:06:00,961 --> 00:06:02,531
are an interesting case of
170
00:06:02,530 --> 00:06:04,830
American terrorism, because they
171
00:06:04,832 --> 00:06:06,772
really did grow up here.
172
00:06:07,835 --> 00:06:09,965
They seemed just like any other
173
00:06:09,970 --> 00:06:11,710
two brothers that were living in
174
00:06:11,705 --> 00:06:13,405
an American city, living
175
00:06:13,407 --> 00:06:14,777
American lives.
176
00:06:14,775 --> 00:06:15,975
One was a boxer.
177
00:06:15,976 --> 00:06:17,036
One was a wrestler.
178
00:06:17,044 --> 00:06:18,584
They had friends.
179
00:06:18,579 --> 00:06:19,809
And they seemed just like
180
00:06:19,813 --> 00:06:21,053
everybody else.
181
00:06:21,048 --> 00:06:22,548
>> MULLER: Dzhokhar and
182
00:06:22,550 --> 00:06:23,850
Tamerlan, why would they turn
183
00:06:23,851 --> 00:06:25,591
against America? Why?
184
00:06:25,586 --> 00:06:26,586
We took care of 'em.
185
00:06:26,587 --> 00:06:27,587
They were on welfare.
186
00:06:27,588 --> 00:06:28,588
We fed them.
187
00:06:28,589 --> 00:06:30,089
We gave 'em a college education.
188
00:06:30,090 --> 00:06:31,530
Well, because they were never
189
00:06:31,525 --> 00:06:33,455
for America to begin with.
190
00:06:35,696 --> 00:06:36,726
>> NARRATOR: Friends of the
191
00:06:36,730 --> 00:06:38,600
Tsarnaevs said the brothers
192
00:06:38,599 --> 00:06:40,099
publicly voiced their disdain
193
00:06:40,100 --> 00:06:42,700
for America, and even posted
194
00:06:42,703 --> 00:06:44,003
what could be considered
195
00:06:44,004 --> 00:06:47,014
numerous red flags by means of
196
00:06:47,007 --> 00:06:49,507
social networks, like Facebook
197
00:06:49,543 --> 00:06:51,553
and Twitter.
198
00:06:51,545 --> 00:06:53,105
According to some reports, the
199
00:06:53,113 --> 00:06:56,483
FBI even had files on Tamerlan
200
00:06:56,484 --> 00:06:58,494
and Dzhokhar long before the
201
00:06:58,486 --> 00:07:00,416
Boston attack.
202
00:07:01,489 --> 00:07:02,619
>> VAN ZANDT: Russian security
203
00:07:02,623 --> 00:07:05,033
services had come to the FBI and
204
00:07:05,025 --> 00:07:07,125
said: these two guys, they've
205
00:07:07,127 --> 00:07:10,497
got some very radical views.
206
00:07:10,498 --> 00:07:12,498
At the time, they associated
207
00:07:12,500 --> 00:07:15,470
with no one that would make them
208
00:07:15,469 --> 00:07:17,969
significant enough to monitor
209
00:07:17,971 --> 00:07:20,711
these guys 24 hours a day.
210
00:07:20,708 --> 00:07:22,638
They weren't a big enough dot.
211
00:07:22,643 --> 00:07:23,783
You know, we've got a lot of
212
00:07:23,777 --> 00:07:25,447
dots out of 315 million
213
00:07:25,479 --> 00:07:27,919
Americans to look at.
214
00:07:27,915 --> 00:07:29,045
>> ALEX JONES: If you look at
215
00:07:29,049 --> 00:07:30,049
the FBI statements, they claimed
216
00:07:30,050 --> 00:07:31,020
they never heard of those
217
00:07:31,051 --> 00:07:33,051
brothers.
218
00:07:33,053 --> 00:07:34,623
They put them on TV for two days
219
00:07:34,622 --> 00:07:35,922
and said: Who are they?
220
00:07:35,923 --> 00:07:37,593
Three years before, they had
221
00:07:37,591 --> 00:07:38,591
interviewed them.
222
00:07:38,592 --> 00:07:39,592
They had them under
223
00:07:39,593 --> 00:07:40,933
surveillance.
224
00:07:40,928 --> 00:07:42,528
>> SULLIVAN: If you're plotting
225
00:07:42,530 --> 00:07:44,900
a terrorist attack, and you
226
00:07:44,898 --> 00:07:46,598
basically can blend in with
227
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,170
American society and keep your
228
00:07:48,168 --> 00:07:50,068
mouth shut, there's a high
229
00:07:50,070 --> 00:07:51,910
probability that your attack is
230
00:07:51,905 --> 00:07:54,775
gonna succeed.
231
00:07:54,775 --> 00:07:55,775
>> NARRATOR: Could the
232
00:07:55,776 --> 00:07:57,076
authorities have missed an
233
00:07:57,077 --> 00:07:58,647
opportunity to stop these
234
00:07:58,646 --> 00:08:00,876
terrorists before they had a
235
00:08:00,881 --> 00:08:02,821
chance to kill?
236
00:08:04,818 --> 00:08:06,088
According to former boxing
237
00:08:06,086 --> 00:08:08,516
partner Ibragim Todashev,
238
00:08:08,522 --> 00:08:10,762
Tamerlan Tsarnaev had been
239
00:08:10,758 --> 00:08:13,028
involved in a triple homicide in
240
00:08:13,026 --> 00:08:16,626
September of 2011, over two
241
00:08:16,630 --> 00:08:21,100
years before the Boston bombing.
242
00:08:21,101 --> 00:08:22,771
While being questioned about the
243
00:08:22,770 --> 00:08:25,040
murders, Todashev himself was
244
00:08:25,038 --> 00:08:27,878
killed after allegedly attacking
245
00:08:27,908 --> 00:08:29,978
an FBI agent.
246
00:08:29,977 --> 00:08:30,977
>> MICHAEL RIVERO: The FBI was
247
00:08:30,978 --> 00:08:32,978
looking at Todashev.
248
00:08:32,980 --> 00:08:34,580
He was walking out and telling
249
00:08:34,582 --> 00:08:35,852
everybody, "Hey, the FBI's
250
00:08:35,849 --> 00:08:37,219
trying to get me to frame these
251
00:08:37,217 --> 00:08:39,217
guys," and I think that's when
252
00:08:39,219 --> 00:08:40,819
things got out of control, and
253
00:08:40,821 --> 00:08:42,261
Todashev wound up being shot
254
00:08:42,255 --> 00:08:43,785
multiple times, including one to
255
00:08:43,824 --> 00:08:45,834
the crown of his head.
256
00:08:45,826 --> 00:08:47,326
The FBI tried to claim he pulled
257
00:08:47,327 --> 00:08:48,327
a knife.
258
00:08:48,328 --> 00:08:49,728
That story was contradicted by
259
00:08:49,730 --> 00:08:50,730
the Florida police who were
260
00:08:50,731 --> 00:08:51,731
there.
261
00:08:51,732 --> 00:08:52,872
Todashev's father said he had
262
00:08:52,866 --> 00:08:54,126
just had knee surgery;
263
00:08:54,134 --> 00:08:55,274
he was barely mobile.
264
00:08:55,268 --> 00:08:56,738
It just looks like one of these
265
00:08:56,737 --> 00:08:58,737
FBI situations that got out of
266
00:08:58,739 --> 00:08:59,869
control and somebody died for
267
00:08:59,873 --> 00:09:01,983
it.
268
00:09:01,975 --> 00:09:03,835
>> NARRATOR: Did the FBI abandon
269
00:09:03,844 --> 00:09:05,754
the triple-homicide case in
270
00:09:05,746 --> 00:09:07,676
order to cover up their
271
00:09:07,681 --> 00:09:08,751
involvement in the death of
272
00:09:08,749 --> 00:09:11,019
their informer?
273
00:09:11,018 --> 00:09:13,618
And by doing so, did they miss
274
00:09:13,621 --> 00:09:15,161
an opportunity to arrest and
275
00:09:15,155 --> 00:09:17,725
deport Tamerlan Tsarnaev, and
276
00:09:17,725 --> 00:09:20,285
therefore prevent the Boston
277
00:09:20,293 --> 00:09:22,663
Marathon bombings?
278
00:09:22,696 --> 00:09:24,866
Perhaps.
279
00:09:24,865 --> 00:09:27,165
But one thing remains certain:
280
00:09:27,167 --> 00:09:28,837
the Boston bombings proved that
281
00:09:28,836 --> 00:09:31,166
international terror can be
282
00:09:31,171 --> 00:09:33,311
plotted and carried out within
283
00:09:33,306 --> 00:09:36,636
America's borders.
284
00:09:36,644 --> 00:09:39,054
And even after 9/11, it is
285
00:09:39,046 --> 00:09:41,616
difficult to predict, and even
286
00:09:41,615 --> 00:09:43,915
harder to prevent.
287
00:09:43,917 --> 00:09:45,247
>> MURPHY: I think the bombings
288
00:09:45,252 --> 00:09:46,322
of the Boston Marathon
289
00:09:46,319 --> 00:09:47,919
definitely have changed our
290
00:09:47,921 --> 00:09:48,921
country.
291
00:09:48,922 --> 00:09:50,292
I think that we have to know
292
00:09:50,323 --> 00:09:52,393
that this could happen anywhere.
293
00:09:52,392 --> 00:09:53,662
>> SULLIVAN: I think most
294
00:09:53,661 --> 00:09:55,261
Americans would be surprised to
295
00:09:55,262 --> 00:09:57,802
learn that a domestic American
296
00:09:57,798 --> 00:09:59,628
terrorist could be the person
297
00:09:59,633 --> 00:10:01,273
living next-door to them, and
298
00:10:01,268 --> 00:10:02,798
they wouldn't have any idea what
299
00:10:02,803 --> 00:10:04,273
this person was capable
300
00:10:04,271 --> 00:10:06,641
of doing until they did it.
301
00:10:08,041 --> 00:10:09,641
>> NARRATOR: While some American
302
00:10:09,643 --> 00:10:12,413
terrorists operate alone, others
303
00:10:12,412 --> 00:10:15,082
find strength in numbers.
304
00:10:15,082 --> 00:10:18,352
They prey upon the weak-minded,
305
00:10:18,351 --> 00:10:21,921
and some even use faith...
306
00:10:21,922 --> 00:10:23,862
as bait.
307
00:10:35,068 --> 00:10:38,808
>> NARRATOR: September 24, 2009.
308
00:10:38,806 --> 00:10:40,766
Springfield, Illinois.
309
00:10:43,777 --> 00:10:46,877
29-year-old Michael Finton--
310
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,150
also known as Talib Islam--
311
00:10:50,150 --> 00:10:52,350
drives a truck filled with
312
00:10:52,352 --> 00:10:54,052
explosives to the Paul Findley
313
00:10:54,054 --> 00:10:55,994
Federal Building...
314
00:10:58,225 --> 00:10:59,825
...with the intent to blow up
315
00:10:59,827 --> 00:11:01,827
the courthouse and everyone
316
00:11:01,829 --> 00:11:04,799
inside.
317
00:11:04,798 --> 00:11:06,228
But before he can strike,
318
00:11:06,233 --> 00:11:07,803
authorities immediately
319
00:11:07,801 --> 00:11:09,941
apprehend Finton on charges of
320
00:11:09,970 --> 00:11:12,070
domestic terrorism.
321
00:11:12,072 --> 00:11:13,472
>> DOWNING: The terrorist today
322
00:11:13,473 --> 00:11:15,083
is-is... is not what the
323
00:11:15,075 --> 00:11:16,105
stereotypical terrorist is,
324
00:11:16,109 --> 00:11:17,079
that you see in movies or you
325
00:11:17,110 --> 00:11:19,110
read in books.
326
00:11:19,112 --> 00:11:20,382
It's people that look like
327
00:11:20,380 --> 00:11:21,980
you and I.
328
00:11:21,982 --> 00:11:23,182
>> NARRATOR: Years before the
329
00:11:23,183 --> 00:11:25,353
attempted attack, Finton had
330
00:11:25,352 --> 00:11:27,092
converted to Islam while in
331
00:11:27,087 --> 00:11:28,187
prison.
332
00:11:28,188 --> 00:11:29,988
It helped to fuel his desire to
333
00:11:29,990 --> 00:11:32,790
become a fighter for jihad...
334
00:11:32,793 --> 00:11:34,493
and wage war on the United
335
00:11:34,494 --> 00:11:36,464
States government.
336
00:11:36,463 --> 00:11:37,733
>> DOWNING: Prison
337
00:11:37,731 --> 00:11:39,801
radicalization is a concern
338
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:40,830
for us.
339
00:11:40,834 --> 00:11:42,504
We consider prisons to be
340
00:11:42,502 --> 00:11:45,142
a community of some sort,
341
00:11:45,138 --> 00:11:46,468
a community that could be
342
00:11:46,473 --> 00:11:49,983
considered a community at risk.
343
00:11:49,977 --> 00:11:51,877
We have people that are
344
00:11:51,879 --> 00:11:53,509
converting to Islam in prison.
345
00:11:53,513 --> 00:11:55,153
Some would say we call it
346
00:11:55,148 --> 00:11:57,988
"Pris-lam."
347
00:11:57,985 --> 00:11:59,415
So Pris-lam is actually a
348
00:11:59,419 --> 00:12:04,119
cut-and-paste form of Islam that
349
00:12:04,124 --> 00:12:06,894
is so far away from what the
350
00:12:06,894 --> 00:12:09,834
moderate Muslims practice in
351
00:12:09,830 --> 00:12:11,900
the world and in our country,
352
00:12:11,899 --> 00:12:13,299
and it is a violent
353
00:12:13,300 --> 00:12:15,400
interpretation of Islam.
354
00:12:15,402 --> 00:12:16,902
And it's very dangerous, because
355
00:12:16,904 --> 00:12:18,414
it's out of context.
356
00:12:18,405 --> 00:12:20,765
These people that, uh, that
357
00:12:20,774 --> 00:12:23,014
convert have about 30 seconds of
358
00:12:23,010 --> 00:12:24,540
Islam and they call themselves
359
00:12:24,544 --> 00:12:27,414
a Muslim.
360
00:12:27,414 --> 00:12:28,784
>> NARRATOR: What is it about
361
00:12:28,782 --> 00:12:30,882
doing time in American prisons
362
00:12:30,884 --> 00:12:32,924
that makes former gang members
363
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,190
and common hoodlums such easy
364
00:12:35,188 --> 00:12:38,428
prey for radicalization?
365
00:12:38,458 --> 00:12:41,928
And is there any way to stop it?
366
00:12:41,929 --> 00:12:43,329
>> DR. J. GORDON MELTON: For
367
00:12:43,330 --> 00:12:45,000
people who have a certain
368
00:12:44,998 --> 00:12:46,328
element of hostility in their
369
00:12:46,333 --> 00:12:49,343
lives already, it's a fairly
370
00:12:49,336 --> 00:12:51,336
simple step to fall into a
371
00:12:51,338 --> 00:12:53,338
religious group, uh, which
372
00:12:53,340 --> 00:12:55,140
offers them a sanction for
373
00:12:55,175 --> 00:12:57,805
expressing that hostility.
374
00:12:57,811 --> 00:12:59,281
That's something that many
375
00:12:59,279 --> 00:13:01,479
extreme religions do, is they
376
00:13:01,481 --> 00:13:05,221
sanction violence.
377
00:13:05,218 --> 00:13:07,348
The ideology of the groups, the
378
00:13:07,354 --> 00:13:09,364
religious beliefs of the groups,
379
00:13:09,356 --> 00:13:12,286
uh, provide them solace, provide
380
00:13:12,292 --> 00:13:15,462
them acceptance, provide them
381
00:13:15,462 --> 00:13:17,932
with community.
382
00:13:17,931 --> 00:13:19,371
>> DOWNING: Prisons created
383
00:13:19,366 --> 00:13:21,096
really kind of an incubator,
384
00:13:21,101 --> 00:13:24,071
where you could introduce this
385
00:13:24,071 --> 00:13:26,841
radical Islamic ideology into
386
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,110
the prison system.
387
00:13:32,980 --> 00:13:34,080
>> NARRATOR: One group that
388
00:13:34,081 --> 00:13:35,851
reportedly recruits its members
389
00:13:35,849 --> 00:13:38,389
from prison is known as Jamaat
390
00:13:38,385 --> 00:13:41,585
al Fuqra-- Arabic for "Community
391
00:13:41,621 --> 00:13:44,991
of the Impoverished."
392
00:13:44,992 --> 00:13:46,392
>> JOHNSON: Jamaat al Fuqra was
393
00:13:46,393 --> 00:13:48,203
formed in Brooklyn, New York, in
394
00:13:48,195 --> 00:13:50,855
1980, and it's led by a man by
395
00:13:50,864 --> 00:13:52,574
the name of Mubarak Ali Shah
396
00:13:52,599 --> 00:13:55,339
Gilani.
397
00:13:55,335 --> 00:13:57,265
And during the period of 1979 to
398
00:13:57,270 --> 00:14:00,410
1990, it carried out 17
399
00:14:00,407 --> 00:14:02,977
firebombings and ten political
400
00:14:02,976 --> 00:14:04,336
assassinations within the United
401
00:14:04,344 --> 00:14:05,654
States.
402
00:14:05,645 --> 00:14:07,505
Sheikh Gilani recruited a lot of
403
00:14:07,514 --> 00:14:09,084
convicted felons.
404
00:14:09,082 --> 00:14:10,482
These convicted felons brought
405
00:14:10,483 --> 00:14:12,653
with them criminal tradecraft,
406
00:14:12,652 --> 00:14:14,592
violence.
407
00:14:16,556 --> 00:14:19,286
He would take these new converts
408
00:14:19,292 --> 00:14:20,562
and move them out to remote
409
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,030
areas of the country to his
410
00:14:22,029 --> 00:14:23,999
jamaats.
411
00:14:23,997 --> 00:14:25,267
>> NARRATOR: There are currently
412
00:14:25,265 --> 00:14:28,535
at least 13 al Fuqra compounds
413
00:14:28,535 --> 00:14:30,995
in operation across the United
414
00:14:31,004 --> 00:14:34,014
States, all carrying out a quiet
415
00:14:34,007 --> 00:14:36,307
and secluded existence...
416
00:14:36,309 --> 00:14:39,149
out of the public eye.
417
00:14:39,146 --> 00:14:40,276
>> JOHNSON: Jamaat al Fuqra
418
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,450
operates two front
419
00:14:41,448 --> 00:14:42,518
organizations.
420
00:14:42,515 --> 00:14:44,145
One is the Koranic Open
421
00:14:44,151 --> 00:14:46,321
University, and the other is the
422
00:14:46,319 --> 00:14:48,059
Muslims of the Americas,
423
00:14:48,055 --> 00:14:49,315
which is a nonprofit,
424
00:14:49,322 --> 00:14:51,292
tax-exempt, ethnic organization
425
00:14:51,291 --> 00:14:53,031
that basically provides
426
00:14:53,026 --> 00:14:54,256
fundraising to terrorists
427
00:14:54,261 --> 00:14:55,461
overseas.
428
00:14:55,462 --> 00:14:57,032
The Muslims of Americas'
429
00:14:57,030 --> 00:14:59,030
recruitment strategy swelled the
430
00:14:59,032 --> 00:15:00,272
ranks of that group to
431
00:15:00,267 --> 00:15:01,597
approximately 3,000 to 5,000
432
00:15:01,601 --> 00:15:04,471
individuals.
433
00:15:04,471 --> 00:15:06,141
>> NARRATOR: In recent years,
434
00:15:06,139 --> 00:15:08,179
reports of prison recruitment
435
00:15:08,175 --> 00:15:11,035
for terrorism have declined.
436
00:15:11,044 --> 00:15:12,484
But just because a terrorist
437
00:15:12,479 --> 00:15:15,579
group seems inactive... it
438
00:15:15,582 --> 00:15:16,952
doesn't necessarily mean it's
439
00:15:16,950 --> 00:15:19,420
been disbanded.
440
00:15:19,419 --> 00:15:21,619
It may only mean that it has
441
00:15:21,621 --> 00:15:24,191
gone further underground.
442
00:15:24,191 --> 00:15:25,361
>> DOWNING: Some reasons why
443
00:15:25,358 --> 00:15:27,058
terrorist groups, individuals
444
00:15:27,060 --> 00:15:28,500
go quiet is because they're
445
00:15:28,495 --> 00:15:29,595
involved in some type of
446
00:15:29,596 --> 00:15:31,356
strategic planning.
447
00:15:31,364 --> 00:15:34,234
How are they raising money?
448
00:15:34,234 --> 00:15:37,374
Do they deal in heavy weapons?
449
00:15:37,370 --> 00:15:39,240
Are they researching weapons of
450
00:15:39,239 --> 00:15:41,209
mass destruction?
451
00:15:44,577 --> 00:15:46,607
So that's why the absence of
452
00:15:46,613 --> 00:15:49,453
activity is not a measure of
453
00:15:49,449 --> 00:15:51,379
success.
454
00:15:51,384 --> 00:15:52,354
(siren wailing, indistinct
455
00:15:52,385 --> 00:15:54,385
radio communication)
456
00:15:54,387 --> 00:15:56,317
>> VAN ZANDT: Until they commit
457
00:15:56,323 --> 00:15:58,233
a significant criminal act,
458
00:15:58,225 --> 00:16:00,655
they're one more dot, they're
459
00:16:00,660 --> 00:16:03,200
one more point on our radar,
460
00:16:03,196 --> 00:16:04,326
but they're not a big point
461
00:16:04,364 --> 00:16:06,374
right now.
462
00:16:06,366 --> 00:16:08,536
And U.S. law enforcement is
463
00:16:08,535 --> 00:16:12,135
stretched so thin...
464
00:16:12,139 --> 00:16:14,069
that they have to respond to
465
00:16:14,074 --> 00:16:15,544
what is the clear and present
466
00:16:15,542 --> 00:16:18,552
danger today.
467
00:16:18,545 --> 00:16:20,145
And tomorrow we'll deal with the
468
00:16:20,147 --> 00:16:23,147
next one.
469
00:16:23,150 --> 00:16:24,650
>> NARRATOR: But in addition to
470
00:16:24,651 --> 00:16:26,551
terrorist groups who prey upon
471
00:16:26,553 --> 00:16:28,223
the underprivileged and
472
00:16:28,221 --> 00:16:30,391
disaffected...
473
00:16:30,390 --> 00:16:32,360
there are those who secretly and
474
00:16:32,359 --> 00:16:35,259
strategically recruit others in
475
00:16:35,262 --> 00:16:37,132
our society.
476
00:16:37,130 --> 00:16:38,570
And some of them are the very
477
00:16:38,565 --> 00:16:41,425
people we most admire
478
00:16:41,434 --> 00:16:43,274
and trust...
479
00:16:43,270 --> 00:16:45,210
with our lives.
480
00:16:54,247 --> 00:16:55,417
>> NARRATOR: According to the
481
00:16:55,415 --> 00:16:57,345
Justice Department, there are
482
00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:59,790
anywhere from 2,000 to 5,000 gun
483
00:16:59,786 --> 00:17:01,786
shows in the United States each
484
00:17:01,788 --> 00:17:05,358
year.
485
00:17:05,358 --> 00:17:07,288
Sales figures show that guns are
486
00:17:07,294 --> 00:17:10,364
being bought in America now more
487
00:17:10,363 --> 00:17:14,633
than at any time in our history.
488
00:17:14,634 --> 00:17:16,174
But while the Constitution's 2nd
489
00:17:16,169 --> 00:17:18,509
Amendment protects a citizen's
490
00:17:18,505 --> 00:17:21,505
right to bear arms... there are
491
00:17:21,508 --> 00:17:23,708
some who believe it may also be
492
00:17:23,710 --> 00:17:25,780
making it easier for terrorists
493
00:17:25,812 --> 00:17:29,122
to legally obtain weapons.
494
00:17:29,116 --> 00:17:30,446
>> VAN ZANDT: America's greatest
495
00:17:30,450 --> 00:17:31,680
strength is its greatest
496
00:17:31,718 --> 00:17:33,718
weakness.
497
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,520
We're constantly trying to
498
00:17:35,522 --> 00:17:37,422
strike that balance between our
499
00:17:37,424 --> 00:17:39,664
freedoms and our safety and
500
00:17:39,659 --> 00:17:41,189
security.
501
00:17:41,194 --> 00:17:43,304
There are 285 million guns
502
00:17:43,296 --> 00:17:45,466
in this country.
503
00:17:45,465 --> 00:17:47,595
So does gun ownership flag
504
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,200
somebody as a terrorist?
505
00:17:50,203 --> 00:17:53,143
Hopefully not.
506
00:17:53,140 --> 00:17:54,310
>> NARRATOR: Could legally
507
00:17:54,307 --> 00:17:56,407
obtained and Constitutionally
508
00:17:56,409 --> 00:17:58,709
protected weapons be finding
509
00:17:58,711 --> 00:18:00,351
their way into the hands of
510
00:18:00,347 --> 00:18:03,217
terrorists...
511
00:18:03,216 --> 00:18:05,216
terrorists who may seem the
512
00:18:05,218 --> 00:18:06,848
least likely candidates for
513
00:18:06,853 --> 00:18:08,793
radical recruitment?
514
00:18:11,724 --> 00:18:15,304
(birds chirping, cawing)

in Long County, Georgia.
518
00:18:23,370 --> 00:18:24,840
In a forest near the Fort
519
00:18:24,837 --> 00:18:27,337
Stewart Army base, two fishermen
520
00:18:27,340 --> 00:18:28,640
discover the bodies of
521
00:18:28,641 --> 00:18:31,211
19-year-old former private
522
00:18:31,211 --> 00:18:32,911

York.
525
00:18:37,484 --> 00:18:38,894
Evidence leads authorities to
526
00:18:38,885 --> 00:18:40,645
believe that they had been
527
00:18:40,653 --> 00:18:44,323
violently murdered.
528
00:18:44,324 --> 00:18:45,934
Five days later, the Georgia
529
00:18:45,925 --> 00:18:48,655
Bureau of Investigation arrests

double homicide.
536
00:19:03,810 --> 00:19:05,380
Their motive?
537
00:19:05,378 --> 00:19:07,278
To ensure that Michael Roark and
538
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,680
his girlfriend could not expose
539
00:19:09,682 --> 00:19:11,882
the activities of a domestic
540
00:19:11,884 --> 00:19:14,424
terror group, one in which
541
00:19:14,421 --> 00:19:17,961
Roark was a former member--
542
00:19:17,957 --> 00:19:20,387
a secret militia group called
543
00:19:20,427 --> 00:19:22,527
F.E.A.R.
544
00:19:22,529 --> 00:19:23,829
>> JOHNSON: The acronym F.E.A.R.
545
00:19:23,830 --> 00:19:25,400
stands for "Forever Enduring,

00:19:25,398 --> 00:19:26,798
Always Ready."
547
00:19:26,799 --> 00:19:28,399
F.E.A.R. is a paramilitary
548
00:19:28,401 --> 00:19:30,371
militia organization that has an
549
00:19:30,370 --> 00:19:31,800
antigovernment conspiracy belief
550
00:19:31,804 --> 00:19:34,714
system.
551
00:19:34,707 --> 00:19:36,277

Private First Class Michael
553
00:19:37,977 --> 00:19:40,277
Burnett further outlined the
554
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,780
group's insidious and twisted
555
00:19:42,782 --> 00:19:44,722
ideology.

government back to the people.
558
00:19:52,725 --> 00:19:55,555
Yeah. Patriotism.
559
00:19:55,562 --> 00:19:56,602
>> PAULEY: The express purpose
560
00:19:56,596 --> 00:19:58,996
of F.E.A.R., as a whole, was to
561
00:19:58,998 --> 00:20:00,598
overthrow the United States
562
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,400
Government, uh, and to
563
00:20:02,402 --> 00:20:04,742
assassinate the president.
564
00:20:04,737 --> 00:20:06,337

00:20:06,339 --> 00:20:08,579
assassination was not the only

00:20:10,577 --> 00:20:13,347
American terrorists.
568
00:20:13,346 --> 00:20:14,676
>> PAULEY: They had planned to
569
00:20:14,681 --> 00:20:15,981
take out the ammunition control

point on Fort Stewart.
571
00:20:18,585 --> 00:20:19,845
If you have soldiers but you
572
00:20:19,852 --> 00:20:21,322
don't have ammunition, they are
573
00:20:21,321 --> 00:20:22,491
useless.
574
00:20:22,489 --> 00:20:23,689
>> POTOK: They had a very
575
00:20:23,690 --> 00:20:25,690
bizarre set of goals.
576
00:20:25,692 --> 00:20:27,332
They talked about doing things
577
00:20:27,327 --> 00:20:28,357
like poisoning the apple
578
00:20:28,361 --> 00:20:29,461
orchards of the state of
579
00:20:29,496 --> 00:20:31,496
Washington.
580
00:20:31,498 --> 00:20:32,768
>> PAULEY: This would kill
581
00:20:32,765 --> 00:20:35,635
civilians, create chaos,
582
00:20:35,635 --> 00:20:37,365
interfere with the economy of
583
00:20:37,370 --> 00:20:38,770
Washington State in a tremendous
584
00:20:38,771 --> 00:20:39,911
fashion.
585
00:20:39,906 --> 00:20:41,506
And, also, they planned on
586
00:20:41,508 --> 00:20:44,508
taking out a hydroelectric dam
587
00:20:44,511 --> 00:20:46,451
by way of a bomb.
588
00:20:46,446 --> 00:20:47,906
The resulting flooding would
589
00:20:47,914 --> 00:20:50,484
strike nearby nuclear power
590
00:20:50,483 --> 00:20:52,453
plants, resulting, then,
591
00:20:52,452 --> 00:20:53,622
in a nuclear catastrophe.
592
00:20:53,620 --> 00:20:55,990
(explosion thunders)
593
00:20:55,988 --> 00:20:57,788
>> POTOK: F.E.A.R. was a scary
594
00:20:57,790 --> 00:20:59,790
group, as was shown by the fact
595
00:20:59,792 --> 00:21:01,362
that they actually murdered one
596
00:21:01,361 --> 00:21:02,661
of their own.
597
00:21:02,662 --> 00:21:04,362
They had acquired an awful lot
598
00:21:04,364 --> 00:21:05,674
of weapons and other
599
00:21:05,665 --> 00:21:06,895
paraphernalia.
600
00:21:06,899 --> 00:21:08,939
This group ultimately spent
601
00:21:08,935 --> 00:21:12,065
$87,000 on bomb components and
602
00:21:12,071 --> 00:21:14,011
other weaponry.
603
00:21:15,808 --> 00:21:17,638
>> NARRATOR: In September of
604
00:21:17,644 --> 00:21:19,484
2011-- just three months before
605
00:21:19,479 --> 00:21:21,809
the double homicide-- Aguigui
606
00:21:21,814 --> 00:21:23,954
reportedly purchased 15 assault
607
00:21:23,950 --> 00:21:26,950
weapons from a gun supply store
608
00:21:26,953 --> 00:21:30,923
in Wenatchee, Washington State.
609
00:21:30,923 --> 00:21:33,693
A relative of Aguigui's raised
610
00:21:33,693 --> 00:21:35,563
suspicion about the bulk
611
00:21:35,562 --> 00:21:36,832
purchase to local authorities,
612
00:21:36,829 --> 00:21:38,899
but since no laws were broken,
613
00:21:38,898 --> 00:21:41,368
no action could be
614
00:21:41,401 --> 00:21:43,571
taken against him.
615
00:21:43,570 --> 00:21:45,100
>> DOWNING: I think we have
616
00:21:45,104 --> 00:21:46,774
enough freedom to secure the
617
00:21:46,773 --> 00:21:49,083
country, and to hunt
618
00:21:49,075 --> 00:21:50,405
terrorists, to exploit
619
00:21:50,410 --> 00:21:52,910
intelligence, but I think we
620
00:21:52,912 --> 00:21:54,452
need to also respect the
621
00:21:54,447 --> 00:21:55,847
Constitutional rights that we
622
00:21:55,848 --> 00:21:57,918
have because that keeps us in a
623
00:21:57,950 --> 00:22:00,920
position of legitimacy.
624
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,120
>> NARRATOR: In July of 2013,
625
00:22:03,122 --> 00:22:05,532
F.E.A.R.'s leader, Private Isaac
626
00:22:05,525 --> 00:22:08,425
Aguigui, pleaded guilty to
627
00:22:08,428 --> 00:22:09,658
murder and criminal gang
628
00:22:09,662 --> 00:22:10,962
activity.
629
00:22:10,963 --> 00:22:12,703
He was sentenced to life
630
00:22:12,699 --> 00:22:14,469
without parole.
631
00:22:14,467 --> 00:22:16,937
Private First Class Michael
632
00:22:16,936 --> 00:22:18,806
Burnett pled guilty to
633
00:22:18,805 --> 00:22:20,465
manslaughter, while other
634
00:22:20,473 --> 00:22:22,113
members of the F.E.A.R. group
635
00:22:22,108 --> 00:22:23,878
were arrested on charges ranging
636
00:22:23,876 --> 00:22:26,146
from theft and drug dealing to
637
00:22:26,145 --> 00:22:27,875
violating Georgia's
638
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,450
anti-terrorism and street gang
639
00:22:29,449 --> 00:22:30,579
laws.
640
00:22:30,583 --> 00:22:32,123
>> VAN ZANDT: Because you put
641
00:22:32,118 --> 00:22:33,748
on a uniform in this country,
642
00:22:33,753 --> 00:22:35,593
doesn't mean you adopt what
643
00:22:35,588 --> 00:22:37,118
this country necessarily stands
644
00:22:37,123 --> 00:22:39,693
for, and doesn't mean you can't
645
00:22:39,692 --> 00:22:40,992
turn around and use all that
646
00:22:40,993 --> 00:22:41,893
training and education
647
00:22:41,894 --> 00:22:43,864
against us.
648
00:22:45,998 --> 00:22:47,498
>> NARRATOR: Are United States
649
00:22:47,500 --> 00:22:49,000
armed forces unwittingly
650
00:22:49,001 --> 00:22:51,001
recruiting and training a new
651
00:22:51,003 --> 00:22:53,973
and highly armed generation of
652
00:22:53,973 --> 00:22:56,613
American terrorists?
653
00:22:56,609 --> 00:22:58,139
Perhaps.
654
00:22:58,144 --> 00:23:00,014
But there are those who believe
655
00:23:00,012 --> 00:23:01,752
that the greatest danger we face
656
00:23:01,748 --> 00:23:03,478
is not at the hands of a
657
00:23:03,483 --> 00:23:05,023
terrorist group,
658
00:23:05,017 --> 00:23:06,917
but from individuals--
659
00:23:06,919 --> 00:23:09,589
lone wolves who will stop at
660
00:23:09,589 --> 00:23:10,719
nothing to cause chaos...
661
00:23:10,723 --> 00:23:12,193
>> MAN: Get-get the camera
662
00:23:12,191 --> 00:23:13,461
out of here!
663
00:23:13,460 --> 00:23:14,490
>> NARRATOR: ...and mass
664
00:23:14,494 --> 00:23:16,504
destruction.
665
00:23:29,509 --> 00:23:32,749
>> NARRATOR: November 1, 2013.
666
00:23:32,745 --> 00:23:36,075
Los Angeles, California.
667
00:23:36,082 --> 00:23:38,182
While passengers make their way
668
00:23:38,184 --> 00:23:39,694
to ticket counters and security
669
00:23:39,686 --> 00:23:41,186
lines...
670
00:23:41,187 --> 00:23:43,117
(gunshots, screaming)
671
00:23:45,958 --> 00:23:47,228
...shots are fired from a
672
00:23:47,226 --> 00:23:49,496
semiautomatic weapon, sending
673
00:23:49,529 --> 00:23:51,829
hundreds into hysteria.
674
00:23:51,831 --> 00:23:54,571
Before targeting his victims,
675
00:23:54,567 --> 00:23:57,097
the lone gunman walks calmly
676
00:23:57,103 --> 00:23:59,043
through the screaming crowd and
677
00:23:59,038 --> 00:24:02,678
asks them if they are part of
678
00:24:02,675 --> 00:24:04,675
the TSA, the airport's
679
00:24:04,677 --> 00:24:05,647
Transportation Security
680
00:24:05,678 --> 00:24:08,518
Administration.
681
00:24:08,515 --> 00:24:10,115
Before he can be apprehended,
682
00:24:10,116 --> 00:24:11,916
one person is dead, two are
683
00:24:11,918 --> 00:24:14,818
wounded, and one of the world's
684
00:24:14,821 --> 00:24:16,661
major transportation centers is
685
00:24:16,689 --> 00:24:19,789
brought to its knees.
686
00:24:19,792 --> 00:24:21,792
>> DOWNING: His focus was he was
687
00:24:21,794 --> 00:24:23,004
angry with the government,
688
00:24:22,995 --> 00:24:26,695
and the most symbolic form of
689
00:24:26,699 --> 00:24:28,899
government for him was a TSA
690
00:24:28,935 --> 00:24:32,805
agent in a TSA uniform.
691
00:24:32,805 --> 00:24:35,575
>> NARRATOR: The shooter-- later
692
00:24:35,575 --> 00:24:37,675
identified as Paul Ciancia-- is
693
00:24:37,677 --> 00:24:40,247
one of an increasing number of
694
00:24:40,246 --> 00:24:42,146
American terrorists who prefer
695
00:24:42,148 --> 00:24:44,118
to act alone.
696
00:24:46,252 --> 00:24:47,252
>> JOHNSON: One particularly
697
00:24:47,253 --> 00:24:48,563
secretive nature of domestic
698
00:24:48,555 --> 00:24:49,955
terrorism is their adoption of
699
00:24:49,956 --> 00:24:51,656
leaderless resistance and lone
700
00:24:51,691 --> 00:24:53,731
wolf tactics.
701
00:24:53,726 --> 00:24:55,126
This emphasizes self-training,
702
00:24:55,127 --> 00:24:57,897
surveillancing targets on your
703
00:24:57,897 --> 00:25:00,127
own, and not relying on a group
704
00:25:00,132 --> 00:25:03,142
identity.
705
00:25:03,135 --> 00:25:04,695
>> NARRATOR: But not all lone
706
00:25:04,704 --> 00:25:07,174
wolves are self-radicalized
707
00:25:07,173 --> 00:25:11,043
American men, as proved in a
708
00:25:11,043 --> 00:25:12,313
case that began on
709
00:25:12,311 --> 00:25:15,111
October 16, 2009,
710
00:25:15,114 --> 00:25:17,754
in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
711
00:25:17,750 --> 00:25:19,190
At the Philadelphia
712
00:25:19,185 --> 00:25:20,845
International Airport, the FBI
713
00:25:20,853 --> 00:25:23,893
arrests Colleen LaRose,
714
00:25:23,890 --> 00:25:26,590
a petite blonde-haired,
715
00:25:26,593 --> 00:25:28,863
blue-eyed American woman.
716
00:25:28,861 --> 00:25:30,631
Her crime?
717
00:25:30,630 --> 00:25:32,800
Providing material support
718
00:25:32,799 --> 00:25:34,729
to terrorists and plotting
719
00:25:34,767 --> 00:25:37,137
an assassination.
720
00:25:37,136 --> 00:25:39,306
>> VAN ZANDT: Colleen LaRose is
721
00:25:39,338 --> 00:25:42,308
a very interesting person.
722
00:25:42,308 --> 00:25:43,338
Obviously, because she's a
723
00:25:43,342 --> 00:25:45,312
terrorist and she's a female,
724
00:25:45,311 --> 00:25:47,351
which is rather unique in the
725
00:25:47,346 --> 00:25:49,276
United States.
726
00:25:51,283 --> 00:25:52,183
>> NARRATOR: According to
727
00:25:52,184 --> 00:25:54,224
reports, in 2007, while
728
00:25:54,220 --> 00:25:56,090
vacationing in Amsterdam with
729
00:25:56,088 --> 00:25:58,758
her boyfriend, LaRose had a
730
00:25:58,758 --> 00:26:00,188
one-night affair with a Muslim
731
00:26:00,192 --> 00:26:01,662
man.
732
00:26:01,661 --> 00:26:03,661
She kept the tryst a secret,
733
00:26:03,663 --> 00:26:06,103
but a fascination with the man
734
00:26:06,098 --> 00:26:08,938
and his religion grew.
735
00:26:08,935 --> 00:26:11,195
After returning to the States,
736
00:26:11,203 --> 00:26:12,843
she started to scour Islamic
737
00:26:12,839 --> 00:26:15,239
literature, message boards and
738
00:26:15,241 --> 00:26:18,041
videos, all while keeping her
739
00:26:18,044 --> 00:26:20,384
self-radicalization hidden from
740
00:26:20,379 --> 00:26:22,819
her live-in boyfriend.
741
00:26:22,815 --> 00:26:24,675
She soon became drawn to the
742
00:26:24,684 --> 00:26:26,994
concept of jihad--
743
00:26:26,986 --> 00:26:29,586
martyrdom for a cause.
744
00:26:31,658 --> 00:26:34,228
LaRose's radicalism eventually
745
00:26:34,226 --> 00:26:36,996
went from advocacy to action
746
00:26:36,996 --> 00:26:39,396
when a Swedish cartoonist named
747
00:26:39,398 --> 00:26:41,998
Lars Vilks published what she
748
00:26:42,001 --> 00:26:43,141
believed to be a blasphemous
749
00:26:43,135 --> 00:26:45,095
cartoon.
750
00:26:46,205 --> 00:26:47,705
>> VAN ZANDT: There's this
751
00:26:47,707 --> 00:26:49,137
cartoonist who sketched out
752
00:26:49,141 --> 00:26:50,211
this cartoon of the
753
00:26:50,209 --> 00:26:52,009
prophet Mohammed,
754
00:26:52,011 --> 00:26:53,681
and there's a death warrant,
755
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:54,880
basically, on him for having
756
00:26:54,881 --> 00:26:55,981
done that.
757
00:26:55,982 --> 00:26:57,282
So she's on the Internet.
758
00:26:57,283 --> 00:26:58,723
She's recruiting people
759
00:26:58,718 --> 00:26:59,818
to help her.
760
00:26:59,819 --> 00:27:01,019
She's trying to come up with
761
00:27:01,020 --> 00:27:02,420
money.
762
00:27:02,421 --> 00:27:04,391
>> NARRATOR: LaRose gave herself
763
00:27:04,390 --> 00:27:06,260
the alias "Jihad Jane" and
764
00:27:06,258 --> 00:27:08,158
eventually raised enough
765
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,300
cash online to finance her
766
00:27:11,297 --> 00:27:14,397
plot to kill Vilks.

going to commit this terrible
770
00:27:17,904 --> 00:27:19,114
crime, this murder.
771
00:27:19,105 --> 00:27:20,905
She doesn't do it, fortunately.
772
00:27:20,907 --> 00:27:22,437
Comes back to the United States,
773
00:27:22,441 --> 00:27:24,011
where the FBI and other
774
00:27:24,010 --> 00:27:25,040
intelligence agencies have
775
00:27:25,044 --> 00:27:27,014
picked up on her.

>> NARRATOR: Surprised to learn
777
00:27:30,783 --> 00:27:32,053
of his girlfriend's secret
778
00:27:32,051 --> 00:27:34,851
identity, LaRose's boyfriend
779
00:27:34,854 --> 00:27:37,724
cooperated with the FBI, even
780
00:27:37,724 --> 00:27:39,294
making the phone call that
781
00:27:39,291 --> 00:27:41,261
convinced LaRose to return
782
00:27:41,260 --> 00:27:42,760
to the United States.
783
00:27:42,762 --> 00:27:45,432
But how could Jihad Jane's

00:27:45,431 --> 00:27:47,901
boyfriend have shared a home
785
00:27:47,900 --> 00:27:50,200
with her for years and truly
786
00:27:50,202 --> 00:27:52,002
have no knowledge of
787
00:27:52,004 --> 00:27:54,744

close to another human being

they're doing?
792
00:28:00,947 --> 00:28:02,307
I think the answer is yes,
793
00:28:02,314 --> 00:28:04,024
but usually it takes a little
794
00:28:04,016 --> 00:28:06,216
work not to see everything.

796
00:28:08,087 --> 00:28:10,957
arrested on October 16, 2009,
797
00:28:10,957 --> 00:28:13,057
but her capture remained secret
798
00:28:13,059 --> 00:28:15,799
for five months while
799
00:28:15,795 --> 00:28:17,225

800
00:28:17,229 --> 00:28:18,769

>> VAN ZANDT: The worst type of
805
00:28:26,038 --> 00:28:28,068
terrorist to go against is the
806
00:28:28,074 --> 00:28:30,444
intelligent lone wolf--
807
00:28:30,442 --> 00:28:32,512
a man or a woman with the
808
00:28:32,511 --> 00:28:33,811
ability to keep their mouth shut
809
00:28:33,813 --> 00:28:35,353
and tell nobody else.
810
00:28:35,347 --> 00:28:37,247
That's a tremendous threat
811
00:28:37,249 --> 00:28:38,449
to us today.

enforcement officials, lone wolf
814
00:28:41,854 --> 00:28:44,394
terrorists are the hardest to
815
00:28:44,390 --> 00:28:46,260
track and catch.
816
00:28:46,258 --> 00:28:48,858
There is usually no one close
817
00:28:48,861 --> 00:28:50,331
enough to them who suspect their
818
00:28:50,329 --> 00:28:52,799
plans, and thus alert
819
00:28:52,799 --> 00:28:54,929
authorities of their activities.
820
00:28:54,934 --> 00:28:57,274
They also tend to keep a lower
821
00:28:57,269 --> 00:28:59,509
profile and do little that
822
00:28:59,505 --> 00:29:00,965
might attract attention or
823
00:29:01,007 --> 00:29:02,367
arouse suspicion.

back and do a psychological

autopsy on a terrorist, there
836
00:29:23,395 --> 00:29:26,395
is usually something there that,
837
00:29:26,398 --> 00:29:28,528
if we would have been looking
838
00:29:28,534 --> 00:29:30,404
for it, it might have flagged
839
00:29:30,402 --> 00:29:31,542
that person.
840
00:29:31,537 --> 00:29:33,167
We learn from it,

committed with guns

851
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:55,900

That includes natural gas,
959
00:33:54,633 --> 00:33:57,373
electricity,
960
00:33:57,369 --> 00:33:59,109
railways,
961
00:33:59,105 --> 00:34:00,205
etcetera.
962
00:34:00,206 --> 00:34:02,536
You apply a potential cyber
963
00:34:02,541 --> 00:34:03,741
threat to those industries,
964
00:34:03,742 --> 00:34:07,252
the game completely changes.
965
00:34:07,246 --> 00:34:10,476
Somebody that was an individual
966
00:34:10,482 --> 00:34:12,282
now effectively can wield
967
00:34:12,284 --> 00:34:14,394
national power from wherever
968
00:34:14,420 --> 00:34:17,160
there's an Internet connection.
969
00:34:17,156 --> 00:34:19,126
>> DOWNING: What it does to the
970
00:34:19,125 --> 00:34:21,125
mass population is what we're
971
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:22,490
very concerned about.
972
00:34:22,494 --> 00:34:24,664
Transportation, the ability to
973
00:34:24,663 --> 00:34:26,633
communicate, the ability to buy
974
00:34:26,632 --> 00:34:28,832
food, to eat, to fuel your cars,
975
00:34:28,834 --> 00:34:32,104
that's what we most worry about.
976
00:34:32,104 --> 00:34:34,244
>> IADONISI: In this cyber
977
00:34:34,240 --> 00:34:35,840
world, the real threat is not:
978
00:34:35,841 --> 00:34:37,681
are they gonna hack into
979
00:34:37,676 --> 00:34:39,146
a nuclear launch code
980
00:34:39,145 --> 00:34:40,245
and launch a missile?
981
00:34:40,246 --> 00:34:42,406
The real threat is hacking into
982
00:34:42,414 --> 00:34:44,854
every single GPS transponder in
983
00:34:44,850 --> 00:34:46,290
the United States on every
984
00:34:46,285 --> 00:34:47,845
aircraft in real time and
985
00:34:47,853 --> 00:34:49,463
shutting it down.
986
00:34:49,455 --> 00:34:51,455
It's about hacking a hundred
987
00:34:51,457 --> 00:34:54,587
million areas that each cause a
988
00:34:54,593 --> 00:34:55,863
little bit of damage but added
989
00:34:55,861 --> 00:34:58,801
up, bring down a nation.
990
00:35:00,866 --> 00:35:02,596
>> NARRATOR: As the threat of
991
00:35:02,601 --> 00:35:04,471
domestic cyber terror continues
992
00:35:04,470 --> 00:35:06,810
to grow, there are those who are
993
00:35:06,805 --> 00:35:09,535
tracking still more threats to
994
00:35:09,541 --> 00:35:11,281
our national security,
995
00:35:11,277 --> 00:35:12,837
and these threats involve
996
00:35:12,844 --> 00:35:15,214
weapons that are even more
997
00:35:15,214 --> 00:35:17,624
deadly than the largest bomb,
998
00:35:17,616 --> 00:35:20,486
one that's nearly impossible
999
00:35:20,486 --> 00:35:22,616
to detect.
1000
00:35:31,730 --> 00:35:34,470
>> NARRATOR: September, 2011.
1001
00:35:34,466 --> 00:35:36,596
At a restaurant in Georgia, four
1002
00:35:36,602 --> 00:35:39,942
gray-haired men are overheard
1003
00:35:39,938 --> 00:35:42,308
grumbling about the United
1004
00:35:42,308 --> 00:35:43,838
States government,
1005
00:35:43,842 --> 00:35:46,452
but although most of their
1006
00:35:46,445 --> 00:35:48,345
fellow patrons dismiss them as
1007
00:35:48,347 --> 00:35:51,177
just a group of grumpy old men,
1008
00:35:51,183 --> 00:35:53,493
there is one who is convinced
1009
00:35:53,485 --> 00:35:56,585
they are not just complaining,
1010
00:35:56,622 --> 00:35:59,862
they're plotting.
1011
00:35:59,858 --> 00:36:01,888
>> POTOK: They talked about
1012
00:36:01,893 --> 00:36:03,863
their plans, plans which
1013
00:36:03,862 --> 00:36:05,462
included assassinating
1014
00:36:05,464 --> 00:36:06,734
government officials and
1015
00:36:06,732 --> 00:36:08,672
kidnapping others.
1016
00:36:11,203 --> 00:36:14,743
The leader was taped saying
1017
00:36:14,740 --> 00:36:17,480
quote, "When it comes to saving
1018
00:36:17,476 --> 00:36:19,476
the Constitution, some people
1019
00:36:19,478 --> 00:36:22,648
got to die."
1020
00:36:22,648 --> 00:36:23,878
>> NARRATOR: Part of their plot
1021
00:36:23,882 --> 00:36:26,392
also involved releasing ricin,
1022
00:36:26,385 --> 00:36:28,315
a deadly toxin, from highways
1023
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,220
in Newark, New Jersey;
1024
00:36:31,223 --> 00:36:32,923
Washington, DC; Atlanta,
1025
00:36:32,924 --> 00:36:36,334
Georgia; Jacksonville, Florida;
1026
00:36:36,362 --> 00:36:39,932
and New Orleans, Louisiana.
1027
00:36:39,931 --> 00:36:41,531
>> COLE: What ricin does, once
1028
00:36:41,533 --> 00:36:42,903
it gets into the system, is it
1029
00:36:42,934 --> 00:36:46,914
blocks the activities of cells.
1030
00:36:46,905 --> 00:36:48,665
So you actually have a death of
1031
00:36:48,674 --> 00:36:50,944
cells, meaning a death of organ
1032
00:36:50,942 --> 00:36:52,682
systems throughout the body,
1033
00:36:52,678 --> 00:36:54,378
whether it's the lungs, the
1034
00:36:54,380 --> 00:36:56,780
heart, uh, the liver, the entire
1035
00:36:56,782 --> 00:36:58,682
system, the body system breaks
1036
00:36:58,684 --> 00:36:59,794
down.
1037
00:36:59,785 --> 00:37:01,285
A person who inhales tiny
1038
00:37:01,287 --> 00:37:04,257
amounts of this can die.
1039
00:37:04,256 --> 00:37:07,686
>> NARRATOR: After their trial,
1040
00:37:07,693 --> 00:37:10,703
Ray H. Adams, age 57, and Samuel
1041
00:37:10,696 --> 00:37:13,896
J. Crump, age 71, were found
1042
00:37:13,899 --> 00:37:15,929
guilty of conspiracy to possess
1043
00:37:15,934 --> 00:37:18,944
and produce a biological toxin
1044
00:37:18,937 --> 00:37:20,807
for use as a weapon.
1045
00:37:20,806 --> 00:37:23,776
Frederick Thomas, age 73, and
1046
00:37:23,775 --> 00:37:26,945
Dan Roberts, age 67, pled
1047
00:37:26,945 --> 00:37:29,545
guilty to lesser charges.
1048
00:37:29,548 --> 00:37:31,648
Luckily, this would-be terrorist
1049
00:37:31,650 --> 00:37:33,450
plot was thwarted before it
1050
00:37:33,452 --> 00:37:34,722
could be carried out, but
1051
00:37:34,720 --> 00:37:36,860
could it really have posed a
1052
00:37:36,855 --> 00:37:39,525
serious danger to the American
1053
00:37:39,558 --> 00:37:40,828
public?
1054
00:37:40,826 --> 00:37:43,296
>> VAN ZANDT: We know that
1055
00:37:43,295 --> 00:37:44,855
these biological agents are out
1056
00:37:44,863 --> 00:37:46,673
there and not only that they
1057
00:37:46,665 --> 00:37:49,395
can kill, but they scare the
1058
00:37:49,401 --> 00:37:52,601
hell out of us.
1059
00:37:52,604 --> 00:37:53,614
>> ALI KHAN: You can find,
1060
00:37:53,605 --> 00:37:54,865
on the Internet, all sorts of
1061
00:37:54,873 --> 00:37:56,613
information about how to
1062
00:37:56,608 --> 00:37:58,308
manipulate biologic agents.
1063
00:37:58,310 --> 00:37:59,610
So, as that technology becomes
1064
00:37:59,611 --> 00:38:00,951
more pervasive in our society,
1065
00:38:00,946 --> 00:38:02,476
it's obviously easier for
1066
00:38:02,481 --> 00:38:03,751
somebody to think about how to
1067
00:38:03,749 --> 00:38:04,979
divert that for purposes against
1068
00:38:05,016 --> 00:38:06,486
society.
1069
00:38:06,485 --> 00:38:08,485
>> COLE: There are far more, um,
1070
00:38:08,487 --> 00:38:11,757
agents in different categories
1071
00:38:11,757 --> 00:38:13,487
that could cause widespread
1072
00:38:13,492 --> 00:38:15,462
damage in worst-case scenarios.
1073
00:38:15,461 --> 00:38:17,861
Could be anthrax.
1074
00:38:17,863 --> 00:38:19,573
Could be plague bacteria.
1075
00:38:19,565 --> 00:38:21,995
The potentially lethal list of
1076
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,770
biological agents is amazingly
1077
00:38:25,771 --> 00:38:28,341
large... possibly couple
1078
00:38:28,340 --> 00:38:30,540
of hundred.
1079
00:38:32,611 --> 00:38:36,381
>> NARRATOR: January 9, 2014.
1080
00:38:36,382 --> 00:38:37,782
A chemical leak from a coal
1081
00:38:37,783 --> 00:38:39,523
company in West Virginia makes
1082
00:38:39,518 --> 00:38:41,648
its way into the Elk River,
1083
00:38:41,653 --> 00:38:43,893
affecting a reported 300,000
1084
00:38:43,889 --> 00:38:46,529
people.
1085
00:38:46,525 --> 00:38:48,725
>> MAN: Do not use any of
1086
00:38:48,727 --> 00:38:50,027
the water with the exception of
1087
00:38:50,028 --> 00:38:51,928
using it to flush the commodes
1088
00:38:51,930 --> 00:38:53,930
or for fire protection.
1089
00:38:53,932 --> 00:38:56,602
>> NARRATOR: Although the leak
1090
00:38:56,602 --> 00:38:58,402
was found to be an accident,
1091
00:38:58,404 --> 00:39:00,044
it exposed what could very well
1092
00:39:00,038 --> 00:39:01,938
happen if a terrorist
1093
00:39:01,940 --> 00:39:04,640
purposely poisoned any of the
1094
00:39:04,643 --> 00:39:07,613
77,000 dams and reservoirs or
1095
00:39:07,613 --> 00:39:10,653
the 168,000 public drinking
1096
00:39:10,649 --> 00:39:12,879
water facilities in the United
1097
00:39:12,884 --> 00:39:14,824
States.
1098
00:39:14,820 --> 00:39:16,050
>> KHAN: You can contaminate
1099
00:39:16,054 --> 00:39:17,664
large sources of water or
1100
00:39:17,656 --> 00:39:19,156
food with chemical agents.
1101
00:39:19,157 --> 00:39:20,657
You can, obviously, cause severe
1102
00:39:20,659 --> 00:39:22,829
death and disability due to
1103
00:39:22,828 --> 00:39:25,028
chemical agents, and we saw
1104
00:39:25,030 --> 00:39:27,430
that with previous wars.
1105
00:39:27,433 --> 00:39:28,433
>> NARRATOR: As more American
1106
00:39:28,434 --> 00:39:30,074
terrorists continue to
1107
00:39:30,068 --> 00:39:32,538
experiment with biological and
1108
00:39:32,538 --> 00:39:36,438
chemical weapons, can the United
1109
00:39:36,442 --> 00:39:39,612
States ever really be protected?
1110
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,580
And what other even more
1111
00:39:43,582 --> 00:39:45,952
insidious methods of mass
1112
00:39:45,951 --> 00:39:49,091
destruction are out there,

just waiting to be discovered?
1114
00:39:52,424 --> 00:39:53,864
>> COLE: We have to think of
1115
00:39:53,859 --> 00:39:57,529
what anybody who has an evil
1116
00:39:57,529 --> 00:40:00,869
purpose in mind might consider.
1117
00:40:00,866 --> 00:40:03,596
Whatever may be fashionable or
1118
00:40:03,602 --> 00:40:06,612
real or likely today may not be
1119
00:40:06,605 --> 00:40:08,735
so when the next terrorist
1120
00:40:08,740 --> 00:40:11,480
attack occurs.
1121
00:40:11,477 --> 00:40:13,477

tens of thousands of terrorists
1123
00:40:15,013 --> 00:40:17,583
operating in the United States,
1124
00:40:17,583 --> 00:40:21,423
is there any safe place for

00:40:25,457 --> 00:40:26,757
probability that there are
1128
00:40:26,758 --> 00:40:28,028
other people like the Boston
1129
00:40:28,026 --> 00:40:29,526
bombers, right now, in this
1130
00:40:29,561 --> 00:40:31,601
country, planning an attack.

this morning at Starbucks.
1134
00:40:36,001 --> 00:40:37,601

toll booth on Route 95.
1136
00:40:40,472 --> 00:40:42,712
They're an engineer at MIT, and

00:40:52,183 --> 00:40:55,123
or she attacks.
1142
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,490
It's the ones that slip through,

the blips on the radar, that we
1144
00:40:59,190 --> 00:41:01,260
don't pay attention to, those
1145
00:41:01,259 --> 00:41:02,629
are the ones that are
1146
00:41:02,628 --> 00:41:03,628
eventually going to come around
1147
00:41:03,629 --> 00:41:04,659
and hurt us, and we can't
1148
00:41:04,663 --> 00:41:06,573
stop every one of them.
1149
00:41:08,934 --> 00:41:10,804
>> NARRATOR: Points where
1150
00:41:10,802 --> 00:41:12,142
potential domestic terrorists
1151
00:41:12,137 --> 00:41:14,107
dwell litter the map of the
1152
00:41:14,139 --> 00:41:16,139
United States.
1153
00:41:16,141 --> 00:41:18,041
Considering the events that
1154
00:41:18,043 --> 00:41:19,513
have already happened and the
1155
00:41:19,511 --> 00:41:23,081
inevitable attacks to come,
1156
00:41:23,081 --> 00:41:25,651
is there any chance of winning
1157
00:41:25,651 --> 00:41:28,691
the so-called "War on Terror"?
1158
00:41:28,687 --> 00:41:31,057
Or will vigilant citizens
1159
00:41:31,056 --> 00:41:33,526
and law enforcement agencies
1160
00:41:33,525 --> 00:41:36,185
be able to restore the peace
1161
00:41:36,194 --> 00:41:37,564
and security that was
1162
00:41:37,563 --> 00:41:40,033
once taken for granted?
1163
00:41:40,031 --> 00:41:42,831
A peace that was shattered
1164
00:41:42,834 --> 00:41:43,904
by those who plot in the
1165
00:41:43,902 --> 00:41:45,242
shadows and could be living
1166
00:41:45,236 --> 00:41:47,236
right next door.
