To issue a new electorial role for the best of the people to hold early elections off to the rocky parliament dissolves itself and the government resigns but many protesters say much more needs to be done day after day the demonstrators that we speak with be they in baghdad or other cities tell us they dont feel the government is taking their demands seriously they say that no matter the risk they will continue to come out and press for the rights and opportunities they say they deserve.

All right really go. Ridgeview is a really tight knit neighborhood Everybody Knows everybody else are doing documentaries. One will move that started in the ninetys till now so in the side of young we need to do that in oregon it has been my children. I thought a lot of people in my neighborhood have stories about being watched but most of them are afraid to talk out loud about it especially when theres a camera around ok no worries i think if i want to talk to you know. We got some bread but were no interview. Haria. Hung the law. Come this way if you can get an angle a little bit more but a bit more yeah right there and the damn car is always are great there. Is like how you see in the movie as i post pizza fans that are just sitting staked out from your house when you pass the van by like they pull up of months or a bag and they act like theyre not in the car but we can see you. They would take on an aisle and the car down so they washed all the area. So what coder steps right next to go to the computer and going through would know i should do a movie do home respect their home is this great good. No spot on it. Was time he saw.

Rich you mosque leaders have been under surveillance for years indictments may be forthcoming. The f. B. I. Has had problems going into the mosque during the week they have people out on the corners doing countersurveillance its a very insular community. A decade old federal investigation. So since 93. 00 b. The. Federal authorities are investigating the Mosque Foundation in bridgeview and its leaders for possible involvement and terribly did move on to the house of worship one of the largest Islamic Centers in chicago has been under f. B. I. Surveillance for years. When we found this article it was one of the 1st confirmations for me at least that there was this surveillance that was going on for 911 you know nobody thought anyone was building bombs in the basement but what they did thing was that there was money being funneled through supposedly legitimate charities. 2 hamas 2 has for the most part almost all of these investigations and without any indictments and the ones that did result in indictments were for things like tax fraud so you were getting a lot of wall when you were trying to guess because obviously as a journalist you want to know ok well getting these things moving why what is right why what is it based on and time and again the actual legal argument that was presented was to even discuss the reasons for doing what we are doing would violate National Security. Since august of 9099 ive been working to legally expose the very real forseeable middle eastern terrorist threats to american citizens at home and abroad. The successful investigation which was told me vulgar betrayal vu l. T. A. Our betrayal. To the 998. 00 seizure of 1400000. 00 of middle eastern terrorists on. d the goals of this investigation including identifying organizations involved in the Money Laundering conspiracy and tax from. The list is here and these are the major muslim organizations in America Today so basically they thought all these mosques and charities for just one big front cover for terrorism. I mean with such justification for this. This is the order saying in june of 98. 00 were going to seize that assets of an organization and a person and one of the things they seize was the house i lived at so thats whats wanted out here. Of syrias neighbor who was the 1st american citizen ever designated a terrorist and we were neighbors living downstairs from him at the time. In a middle class suburb of Chicago Living in this house a man the u. S. Government calls a designated global terrorist his name Mohammad Salaam and b c news caught imperium out the window this weekend. That guy peering out the window of his own house that had. Hes publicly known as the 1st american citizen ever put on the terrorist watch list but i knew him best as im a dad my big hearted upstairs neighbor. Who was a trusted man in our community when there was a humanitarian crisis in palestine in the ninetys our mosque sent him to the west bank with thousands of dollars in donations in the Israeli Occupied west bank today 2 american citizens of palestinian descent are being held without charge in any Israeli Military prison while the government here describes the 2 chicagoans as agents for the fundamentalist group hamas they have not been charged with a crime nor have they been allowed to see an attorney when he was arrested by the israelis accused of collecting money for terrorism our community took to the streets to protest his arrest. While in israeli the tension tortured and forced to sign a confession in hebrew a language he didnt speak. The information collected by israeli agents during interrogation was sent to f. B. I. Agents in chicago and became one of the foundations for the vulgar betrayal investigation so law a naturalized u. S. Citizen was convicted in israel but after 5 years in prison there he was allowed to return to the u. S. Despite protests from the lead f. B. I. Agent on the case who says so law remains a threat he and a number of others should have been arrested should be behind bars should have their citizenship stripped should have been defected from this country here you see the old saw about a shoulder. Yes to it not guilty verdict of being a chair restore going to say it didnt matter that abu ahmed was found not guilty in court it didnt matter that the government eventually removed his name from the terrorist watch list once youre labeled a terrorist that red paint never really comes off. Can you talk to me a little bit about the investigation that you worked on that the very large one the name of the state was called polgar betrayal there was a. Individual who was targeted that mohammad salada he was ultimately convicted of a very very minor offenses and i didnt try to tease that or you up thats right you left there 2000 yeah ok do you think that this long investigation was justified. If there are had been crimes uncovered ah or crimes prosecuted that would have been justified. If the reason nothing ever came of the investigation because there was indeed nothing they are then i mean its not a matter be justified the f. B. I. Declines cases all the time with your stretch of squads because all the times are just out of evidence. But if youre i think your question is would. Want to go deeper in that you are you trying to say you think the investigation you know was as a result of. Islamophobia or prejudice. Susan i do i do not but that certainly was not my world view certainly certainly is not. And had i ever thought that that was what was happening i would have not been part of it because that is not obviously who i am maybe not so obvious with his new idea of i mean even if its a bigger question here which it is or is or. Islamic for we are in this country of course the murders its really f. B. I. Wow i cant see much. More since these are documents so i found a 1000 pages of declassified f. B. I. Documents. About an investigation they were doing in chicago in the ninetys called operation while going to try out one of the most interesting documents on june 9th 9098. 00 the assets of blink were 6 percent to warrants based on civil forfeiture complaint filed in the United States court rather than district of 09 so im june 9th 1908 we lived in that house that was seized by the f. B. I. So mom i gotta tell your story well i think shopping Something Like that is where we came and we always saw this bunch of woman in men in suits or in the car with you i think yeah it was all schooling gone like i wasnt aware of them i was just saying your fathers and be a f. B. I. They were just forcing the dollars Something Like these are part of the breeding i was so what they are doing said the attic people over the. City out of the debate. Your father told me he said always sort of maybe would be. Without home was without a home in this so we have to think about having the and all the apartment this and that which is documented in these f. B. I. Documents basically led to us living in this house. The. The. The. I want to find out everywhere that our name is on a list and theres a way to do that you can find a privacy waiver and i can submit it to the f. B. I. And tell them anywhere your names exist to relief. If. You will think. It was. Dear mr know if this is in response here remember racial progress basement mission or provided we conducted a search of the records system we were unable to identify main file records responsive to the foyer be live near acknowledgment of such records existence or nonexistence wouldnt of itself trigger harm to National Security be please be advised that unusual circumstances apply to the processing of your requests be heard advised that the records were not in their expected location i could not be located after a reasonable search. Therefore we are closing your custom and strictly. To be exact how many different ways they have sent me rejection letters they dont have things that i know exist that i know where they are. The. Search 2 days ago. I got a letter from the f. B. I. You know like these letters that weve been getting lately. Dearman spandau a this is in reference here freedom of information act requests on operation volcker trail the federal bureau of investigation has located approximately 33120 pages of records. 33120 pages of record. Just the amount of information you have to collect about people to get to 33000 is enormous and knowing like the end result knowing that these 33000 pages of records never resulted in convicting anyone of terrorism. Its shocking just the number i can imagine within this. Theres a mosque holidays and bridge we have to see see 1st thing that you as the cigar go yeah wow well the shock and fear already know much enough why we havent seen one. How does you know talking lost your dad was even the father me. He had when he was you know. Im expecting about it a whole slew ph the towel tears are desired yeah like it was a temporary thing yeah. I was happy because i was close to them all and you know i have a lot of. Problems. In 1980 when my little brother and the 5th kid in our family was born my father decided that we should move to a bigger house and bridge view. While the new house was being built and my dad was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer. And a few months after we moved in he was gone. I remember for weeks after he died my house was full of Family Friends and neighbors cooking and cleaning and keeping my mother company. At my fathers funeral hundreds of people from around chicago came to the mosque the community to make a donation in memory of my father to help pay off the remainder of our mortgage. In less than an hour the community donated more than 200000. 00. We paid off our home and 1000 years later were still here. Its really easy for me to talk about my family my community but its a lot harder to talk about myself. I feel like i cant even begin to tell you who i am without getting into who i am not. I was 10 years old when i became aware that everyone looks at us like were all a bunch of terrorists. It started with cartoons all the bad guys in the movies had accents like my parents i had to diffuse but i got we kids were constantly bombarded with images of arabs and muslims as radical backwards violence villains. And so i became aware of how others see me and i learned how not to come off to people not a terrorist not an alien not a traitor. Dont talk too loud in arabic at the mall dont argue with your parents in public dont talk with an accent dont fail in school dont ever break the rules dont look an american. I am constantly juggling within me 2 conflicting gazes how i see myself and how i see myself through the eyes of others through the eyes of a world that views me with suspicion and fear.

So its a conversation. To approach Community Members who are not active why not in this field who dont have a clear understanding of the house itself f. B. I. Surveillance and repression yeah its going to be a hard conversation but then lets not forget that these this its the not stop now they have and they have a lot i was also out of their look i was visiting another prominent person in the community was visit one organizing one i would say about 2 months ago they knocked on your door that item i found was the home yeah and they asked for you by name that they had pictures.

And of justice trump in the white house you know what that has an impact on the Community Whether we like it or not oh and it is living in fear. So its a very sensitive topic but i think it could be done. In this. Move. To mean the f. B. I. For information about surveillance not ridicule and i need as many people as possible to sign privacy labor so if the f. B. I. Has a file and they will release a. Dollar were going door to door trying to get people to sign this for. Basically the f. B. I. Told us they have 500 individual records on people in our community. Visiting us for the last one of the biggest law. To follow this case because the believer has a right to. Fire. Here this. Year if they are you. Know you dont really know or know dont be nervous theres a lot of sleepy really straightforward i think a point that if youre just going to kind of say you know im going to bring him in and were going to think no and this is whats happened yeah theyll be nice to meet him and its good for him to kind of thing you ok yeah but but but but the. Morning on this is alexa. Letter for us it went out in the plaintive. One year ago my client who is a journalist submitted this boy request of the government asking for information which is very much in the public interest. This request was denied by the government one year later we dont have a document in hand. The f. B. I. Currently has russian and actually. Called me other things that are headline news. Headlines doesnt cut it for me as being more important than a request from a citizen for documents. Today my real interest is having the government compelled to a schedule to produce documents. Standard. 500 pages improper phenomena maybe. I dont think 500. 00 pages per month is going to be acceptable in this case for a foil request thats been pending some symptoms are of last year absent something telling me i cannot do it im going to order processing at a faster rate than has occurred i dont think we need to discuss this more than have you back next week. Google may have detected government backed attackers trying to steal your password. I clicked on the learn more when this popped up. Thats really frightening. This is all of it is hard suddenly becomes hard to communicate its interesting once youre under investigation its not that youre you stop talking to people because youre dont trust some its because youre afraid that any lack medium of communication is being watched and so nothing is security on and so you keep to yourself i mean the idea of like you become alienated you cant talk to people about that is going on you cant get the help that you need because youre afraid so one thing i did that was proactive other than freaking out why is i emailed the minute freedom of the press foundation hard when i took screenshots of all those things and i was like. As this legit because the u. R. L. Looks legit is it legit and if it is like what should i do and she responded this morning and she said google has methods of detecting this type of attacks on peoples accounts and for some reason a lot of lawyers have been going out to people this past week. So i am going to my mothers house sleep over for the night. And. Then having to find a way to hide all my shit when a very leave the house because im afraid that someone might break into the house where it is its watching me and still my heart drives well so i average home and leave the house now how the stuff. Apparently never hear back in just a minute or 2 men on here to cut one or 2 more away to be. About to be interesting to. Me and making it out to others work on.

About the students while i conquered them you know. Im all in that area. Took. Out like im not sure. How i found it and yeah how did you i was curious how you found a spot on the street like wow. Thats it im honest i dont want to go on. I thought i knew. I was doing a search to meet up and down on that street. Because all the time i went out like looking around like. A sausage bobsledder as you told that area wow. Yeah you know more time yeah i usually record all of my phone calls but if you opt out of that i dont have to do that. I dont want. Im ok ok i can never quite you. Can you move it back a little. Though. Its pretty good though we could see the whole walkway you would see the cars you know but the front door a little more of the front door we want to be able to see more about and the more of the front door it will just be the back a little more thats perfect we have nothing to do how i know youre a nanny what if your job and if i dont he doesnt is my mother she you call it god my god you know she i dont know which taken jenny i miss she didnt value when i called him did i scare her mom could that again or are you trying to yeah i did say oh yeah is it your god why do you think you have and he laughed.

Why hes here and were slow have an answer for any of them. Before the court is played to its motion the compelling expedited process in her request for an f. B. I. Records concerning the antiterrorism operation older material. Plaintive is informing the public of the f. B. I. Is alleging profiling and surveillance of communities based on race religion and the city in particular the Arab American Community and bridgie of. Significant questions about privacy rights are implicated by the plaintiffs project. The court finds that the anticipated 5 year timeline for production is patently on the reasonable and plaintive is entitled to expedited processing. The court orders the defendants to review 3500. 00 pages per month and give priority to the subfiles of individuals who plaintiffs provides privacy waivers. Id marry at. A far happier. For the 1st batch. It looks like in terms of redacting like they redacted as much as heavy handed getting and they are so silly neal its difficult but we think i think well be able to glean something out of. The. The paper here says in 1989 the f. B. I. Field office in indianapolis opened an investigation in the sun trust and then closed it between this is really interesting i had no idea that there was an investigation on the same topic before polgar betrayal. And then questions and answers what were the tactics used and both of which are. Informants calling informants in the community sending f. B. I. Agents to peoples houses and places of work you sit in the british house or if there is the i heard you used a monitor phone calls and they monitored who youre sending it to. Chicago f. B. I. Field office said its our requests to like 20 some other a few. I field offices asking them to get information on this person get information on this organization heres one from louisiana and theyre like we cant find anything in the future that doesnt believe there is suppression evidence of a server should they get one from that or no response. In the future springfield requests that chicago articulate the reasonable belief that each person is engaged in criminal activity in support of International Terrorism were the things that they found the suspicious about us or actually the things that are most important characteristics of our community were very philanthropic and connected to each other. I always thought the paranoia is in a fact of the investigative tactics that they used the way the to the investigation caused us to be paranoid but what if what if some of these things are reversed its not that this is the cause and thats the effect what if this was the purpose based on historically how the f. B. I. Has dealt with communities of color its not a stretch of the imagination to say that there are surveillance methods created paranoia but in fact they want to create paranoia within the Muslim Community shake the cage rattle the cage and see what comes out. And they thought there were terrorists there so that if they put enough heat and pressure on us they would come out the woodwork and they would cash in on a phone call when our early dead so when when you rattle a cage in our and the criminals calling out what does that do to the people in the cage champ. Everybody in this room knows exactly what were talking about when were talking about the increase in surveillance in the community increase in this presumption that the community is something of a threat that started from operation bulger trail in the ninetys and that form not just methods of investigation but also legislation that was in acted post 911 checks and balances starts with people that minds are the courts and congress that check is that people as long as were here in the hiring and they say talking about that somehow makes us more of a target is actually plays in city entire secrecy in the whole game as long as people are free to talk and there is no check against system we cannot be asleep any longer this is our country i want to raise my voice to be proud of who they are as arab as muslims as palestinians and as americans. Whether youre a citizen born here or a citizen of naturalized or an immigrant dont feel that your list of whos who doesnt have the whiteman. Definitely understand the fears that our immigrant Community Uses come to this country with you know we want to invite them in to have a cup of tea or coffee and prove to them that were Great American citizens and i just want to say no sharper f. B. I. Its very simple theyre not in my community. A 20 minute drive from my moms house is the only pen optic con prison ever built in the us. The pan up to gone is designed to ensure that the prisoner is seen without ever seeing. And that the guards see everything without ever being seen. The prisoners feel like they are under such constant surveillance that they change their own behavior. Their paranoia becomes as effective a tool of control as actual surveillance they become silent docile alienated. I still dont know for a fact whether the f. B. I. Has ever stopped watching us and perhaps theres nothing that i can do about being watched maybe the only thing i can do is make sure that the government is not invisible that the systems of power are kept in check. Its in the act of looking back and talking out loud that weve become less an alienated less petrified by our paranoia. Perhaps the only way to destruct surveillance is to make sure that those who do the watching are also being watched. Were. Were or were. Is a risk not worth taking for most.
