More on the Muslim world.
I don't know why this isn't more widely reported.
Another e-mail I received. This one's an interview.
Subject: Interview with Pierre Reehov French Filmmaker
By - Pierre Rehov, documentary filmmaker
MSNBC's "Connected"
One of the guests was Pierre Rehov, a French filmmaker who has filmed
six documentaries on the intifada by going undercover in the
Palestinian areas.
Pierre's upcoming film, "Suicide Killers," is based on interviews
that he conducted with the families of suicide bombers and would-be
bombers in an attempt to find out why they do it. Pierre agreed to a
request for a Q&A interview here about his work on the new film.
Q - What inspired you to produce "Suicide Killers," your seventh
film?
A - I started working with victims of suicide attacks to make a film
on PTSD (Post
Traumatic Stress Disorder) when I became fascinated with the
personalities of those who had committed those crimes, as they were
described again and again by their victims. Especially the fact
that suicide bombers are all smiling one second before they blow
themselves up.
Q - Why is this film especially important?
A - People don't understand the devastating culture behind this
unbelievable phenomenon. My film is not politically correct because
it addresses the real problem, showing the real face of Islam. It
points the finger against a culture of hatred in which the uneducated
are brainwashed to a level where their only solution in life becomes
to kill themselves and kill others in the name of a God whose word,
as transmitted by other men, has become their only certitude.
Q - What insights did you gain from making this film? What do you
know that other
experts do not know?
A - I came to the conclusion that we are facing a neurosis at the
level of an entire
civilization. Most neuroses have in common a dramatic event,
generally linked to an
unacceptable sexual behavior. In this case, we are talking of kids
living all their lives in pure frustration, with no opportunity to
experience sex, love, tenderness or even understanding from the
opposite sex. The separation between men and women in Islam is
absolute. So is contempt toward women, who are totally dominated by
men. This leads to a situation of pure anxiety, in which normal
behavior is not possible.
It is no coincidence that suicide killers are mostly young men
dominated subconsciously by an overwhelming libido that they not only
cannot satisfy but are afraid of, as if it is the work of the devil.
Since Islam describes heaven as a place where everything on Earth
will finally be allowed, and promises 72 virgins to those frustrated
kids, killing others and killing themselves to reach this redemption
becomes their only solution.
Q - What was it like to interview would-be suicide bombers, their
families and survivors of suicide bombings?
A - It was a fascinating and a terrifying experience. You are dealing
with seemingly normal people with very nice manners who have their
own logic, which to a certain extent can make sense since they are so
convinced that what they say is true. It is like dealing with pure
craziness, like interviewing people in an asylum, since what they
say, is for them, the absolute truth. I hear a mother saying "Thank
God, my son is dead." Her son had became a shaheed, a martyr, which
for her was a greater source of pride than if he had became an
engineer, a doctor or a winner of the Nobel Prize.
This system of values works completely backwards since their
interpretation of Islam worships death much more than life. You are
facing people whose only dream, only achievement goal is to fulfill
what they believe to be their destiny, namely to be a Shaheed or the
family of a shaheed.
They don't see the innocent being killed, they only see the impure
that they have to destroy.
Q - You say suicide bombers experience a moment of absolute power,
beyond punishment. Is death the ultimate power?
A - Not death as an end, but death as a door opener to the after
life. They are seeking the reward that God has promised them. They
work for God, the ultimate authority, above all human laws. They
therefore experience this single delusional second of absolute power,
where nothing bad can ever happen to them, since they become God's
sword.
Q - Is there a suicide bomber personality profile? Describe the
psychopathology.
A - Generally kids between 15 and 25 bearing a lot of complexes,
generally inferiority complexes. They must have been fed with
religion. They usually have a lack of developed personality. Usually
they are impressionable idealists. In the western world they would
easily have become drug addicts, but not criminals. Interestingly,
they are not criminals since they don't see good and evil the same
way that we do. If they had been raised in an Occidental culture,
they would have hated violence. But they constantly battle against
their own death anxiety. The only solution to this deep-seated
pathology is to be willing to die and be rewarded in the afterlife in
Paradise.
Q - Are suicide bombers principally motivated by religious
conviction?
A - Yes, it is their only conviction. They don't act to gain a
territory or to find freedom or even dignity. They only follow Allah,
the supreme judge, and what He tells them to do.
Q - Do all Muslims interpret jihad and martyrdom in the same way?
A - All Muslim believers believe that, ultimately, Islam will prevail
on earth. They believe this is the only true religion and there is no
room, in their mind, for interpretation. The main difference between
moderate Muslims and extremists is that moderate Muslims don't think
they will see the absolute victory of Islam during their lifetime,
therefore they respect other beliefs. The extremists believe that the
fulfillment of the Prophecy of Islam and ruling the entire world as
described in the Koran, is for today. Each victory of Bin Laden
convinces 20 million moderate Muslims to become extremists.
Q - Describe the culture that manufactures suicide bombers.
A - Oppression, lack of freedom, brain washing, organized poverty,
placing God in charge of daily life, total separation between men and
women, forbidding sex, giving women no power whatsoever, and placing
men in charge of family honor, which is mainly connected to their
women's behavior.
Q - What socio-economic forces support the perpetuation of suicide
bombings?
A - Muslim charity is usually a cover for supporting terrorist
organizations. But one has also to look at countries like Pakistan,
Saudi Arabia and Iran, which are also supporting the same
organizations through different networks. The ironic thing in the
case of Palestinian suicide bombers is that most of the money comes
through financial support from the Occidental world, donated to a
culture that utterly hates and rejects the West (mainly symbolized by
Israel).
Q - Is there a financial support network for the families of the
suicide bombers? If so, who is paying them and how does that affect
the decision?
A - There used to be a financial incentive in the days of Saddam
Hussein ($25,000 per family) and Yasser Arafat (smaller amounts), but
these days are gone. It is a mistake to believe that these families
would sacrifice their children for money. Although, the children
themselves who are very attached to their families, might find in
this financial support another reason to become suicide bombers. It
is like buying a life insurance policy and then committing suicide.
Q - Why are so many suicide bombers young men?
A - As discussed above, libido is paramount. Also ego, because this
is a sure way to become a hero. The shaheed are the cowboys or the
firemen of Islam. Shaheed is a positively reinforced value in this
culture. And what kid has never dreamed of becoming a cowboy or a
fireman?
Q - What role does the U.N. play in the terrorist equation?
A - The U.N. is in the hands of Arab countries and third world or ex-
communist countries. Their hands are tied. The U.N. has condemned
Israel more than any other country in the world, including the regime
of Castro, Idi Amin or Kaddafi. By behaving this way, the U.N.
leaves a door open by not openly condemning terrorist organizations.
In addition, through UNWRAP, the U.N. is directly tied to terror
organizations such as Hamas, representing 65 percent of their
apparatus in the so-called Palestinian refugee camps. As a support to
Arab countries, the U.N. has maintained Palestinians in camps with
the hope to "return" into Israel for more than 50 years, therefore
making it impossible to settle those populations, which still live in
deplorable conditions. Four hundred million dollars are spent every
year, mainly financed by U.S. taxes, to support 23,000 employees of
UNWRAP, many of whom belong to terrorist organizations (see
Congressman Eric Cantor on this subject, and in my film "Hostages of
Hatred").
Q - You say that a suicide bomber is a 'stupid bomb and a smart
bomb' simultaneously. Explain what you mean.
A - Unlike an electronic device, a suicide killer has until the last
second the capacity to change his mind. In reality, he is nothing but
a platform representing interests which are not his, but he doesn't
know it.
Q - How can we put an end to the madness of suicide bombings and
terrorism in general?
A - Stop being politically correct and stop believing that this
culture is a victim of ours. Radical Islamism today is nothing but a
new form of Nazism. Nobody was trying to justify or excuse Hitler
in the 1930s. We had to defeat him in order to make peace one day
with the German people.
Q - Are these men traveling outside their native areas in large
numbers? Based on your research, would you predict that we are
beginning to see a new wave of suicide bombings outside the Middle
East?
A - Every successful terror attack is considered a victory by the
radical Islamists. Everywhere Islam expands there is regional
conflict. Right now, there are thousands of candidates for martyrdom
lining up in training camps in Bosnia, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Inside Europe, hundreds of illegal mosques are preparing the next
step of brain washing to lost young men who cannot find a satisfying
identity in the Occidental world. Israel is much more prepared for
this than the rest of the world will ever be. Yes, there will be more
suicide killings in Europe and the U.S. Sadly, this is only the
beginning.
