Speaker 1 (00:00):
Do you know what I mean now?
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Is Annie Cyrus and Hadiya Maramadi.
Speaker 1 (00:04):
Guys, welcome back to the broadcast. Thanks for being with us,
Thank you for having us.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
All right, let's start out with the terrorist attack in Australia.
Of course, Logan's got a bunch of b roll footage.
We can bring horrific, horrific. Dealt with it today at
one o'clock with Aaron, our reporter of the brund in Israel.
He has family members that live in Australia. The two
guys Pakistani is what we're hearing now.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
The Sun apparently had been on their radar.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
They've you know, Australia has opened up their borders bringing
all these Islamists.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Here's what you get, I mean, this is just ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
In the police response fifteen to twenty minutes without even responding.
Takes a private citizen who gets shot twice to do
the job of the cops. Because we're in an era
where we have you know, we don't have qualified cops.
We're largely pushing aside the good guys and ridiculing them
and calling them racist and all kinds of things if
they're good cops. So we can hire a bunch of
(01:02):
community organizers, so you know, same problems in Australia as
we have here in America. The whole thing is just disgusting.
There was a police station reportedly within eyesight of this incident.
How we have a Honika by the sea event where
you have a couple structures to give the high ground.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
How that's how this was allowed to happen.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Or they don't have their own private security or more
government security. It just seemed like the whole thing at
many levels is troubling. Not I'm not blaming anything on
the Jews, but I am certainly concerned that there wasn't
thought by somebody that this is not a good location.
There's just too much high ground. But this guy the sun,
(01:49):
he's rattling off his shot so fast. He clearly had
training somewhere. Now we're hearing reports, whether they're true or not,
I don't know, but I'm reading reports that the two
the two had just been over in the Philippines. So
were they over there getting training or what? I don't
know what's the latest? You know, let's go with you first, Annie,
what are you hearing?
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I want to emphasize on something. This was not the
first time we faced a father's son Pakistani father's son
duet of attack. If you remember, Brand and I came
on your show because nobody else was covering it. In Utah,
days after Charlie Kirk was moordered, there was a bomb
that malfunctioned and they didn't go puff and behind that
(02:34):
bombing in Utah wre the father and son from Pakistan.
I think that's important to mention. Why is it important
to mention? A lot of people keep saying close the border,
don't let people in.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
A lot of.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
These sons are the first generation. Their parents came from
Pakistan and Sara and of Pankistan and Iran. They were
born here. Like the Utah attack that we were blessed
that lord, they didn't let that bond go off. But
with the son and father in Australia, you look, the
whole scene just seems so bizarre. The police is there,
(03:13):
but they might have as well not be there. The
people again not blaming, but do they never train their
mindset that this kind of thing is happening every day?
Do they not understand we're getting closer to Hanukov, We're
getting closer to Christmas?
Speaker 4 (03:28):
They step up.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
They're always a step up their game when it comes
to our holidays. That's just given. How could even the
man and I have to be very careful here Because
I received some backlash saying this.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
I am not saying this because.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
The biastandard hero was a Muslim from Syria. No, I'm
not saying that he should have done better. I'm saying that. Okay,
you had the bravery to grab the rifle from the father.
Did you put the rifle white the tree in? Put
your arm up? What was that about? That was just
(04:06):
about twenty twenty five seconds for the father to make
his way up to the bridge next to the son,
grab the other rifle and.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
Start shooting again.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Why did you put yourself in danger? That all comes
back from mindset. Oh I got the gun. I don't
need to do No, you got the gun, you aim
at the person, you shoot him. I'm not saying kill him,
me kap them something.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Do we know if that guy is Buzzlom because we're
getting reported he is, yeah, from Syria? Wait wait wait, wait?
Is Maronite? What is that?
Speaker 5 (04:38):
I heard he was a Lebanese Maronite owned a store,
But that's not correct.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
That's what he is from Syria he's from Syria. The
mother and father both did the interview from the hospital bed.
They are very proud and they literally said, we are
proud of him.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
So is our entire village in Syria.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Okay, so he was a Muslim, but he obviously wasn't
a practice practicing Islam, right he would he have been
considered a hypocrite annie he.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Would definitely as it is. And that's the thing again.
Did he put down the rifle and not shoot the
attacker for not putting more heat on himself for being
a Muslim who killed a Muslim?
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Because that's unforgivable.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Absolutely, if you're a Muslim and kill a Muslim who's
killing Kaffers, you have to pay with your blood.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
It's my guess. I'm not saying that's why he did it.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
But are you thinking that he was like Sharam Haden's dad,
a beer drinking, pork eating Muslim, meaning he wasn't Islamist?
Is this guy likely just Hey, you know, he was
born into the Muslim family, but he's not a practicing Muslim.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
He might be, he's not activated, he doesn't practice jahad yet.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
What are your thoughts? What are your thoughts? Hadiyah?
Speaker 6 (05:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:53):
Whatever, terminology you want to use, whether he's normatively culturally Muslim,
but not a Jahadist, not an a s U.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
Yeah, this is actually I saw conflicting reports.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
I heard it was Brenite, but I didn't know that
his family had been interviewed. But another caveat I wanted
to add is that, you know, because of all the
backlash for people who do take actions into their own hand,
like remember our own subway incident where the gentleman intervened
and then he got prosecuted, there could be this fear
that he was going to get retaliated against if he
(06:26):
took any action other than disarm him. But I also
want to say that we have to look at what
and I'm I presumable going to look at all these
events in totality. We've talked about this rush of you know,
soft target attacks, and we keep talking about them in
isolated examples per country, and I think we really should
(06:48):
be looking at this as a global in a global
attack against the West. And as these incidentss pop off
every day, we have to realize we are in a
war of sorts and when are people going to start
to prepare? As Andy was mentioning preparing and having the
mindset and situational awareness to realize that that's the state
(07:12):
that we're in. Tragically and horribly. But citizens need to
start taking responsibility for their safety because law enforcement. I
have a ten minute video where I hear sirens in
the background and there's no response in no police presence.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Well, so here's a clip by one guy about that
very fact.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Should we go.
Speaker 7 (07:31):
A simple as that twenty minutes was four policemen there,
nobody give fire back.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Nothing, twenty minutes, no fire back nothing.
Speaker 7 (07:40):
The cruise that foot it looked like twenty minutes, and
they should the guy change magazine. I look at him
all the time. I was with two of my babies
under me, and I look at that and it's just
where I felt, and a pistol and just should should
And the other one was under the start to come
close to the m one. I think one of the
(08:03):
people come took his rifle and shoot him.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
That's one of them.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
That's what I saw.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
So you know, basically, look, he's reloading. Why not take
advantage of the fact he's reloading. But no, they didn't,
And the excuse.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Is going to be casualties.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
Too many people the crowd goes moving with them, want
to shoot innocent people? That's going to be the excuse
behind it.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Well, when it comes to casualties, here we go. He're
the cops wasting their time on this piece of trash.
You know, why are we wasting our time trying to
save this piece of trash? Those cops should be out
there helping the victims, not this piece of garbage. Does
he one disagree with that?
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I do not, But I know what's going to be
the excuse behind that too. They wanted to capture one
of them, at least alive, to get information to see
what was their motive.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Yeah, well, I don't know that. We don't know the motive, right,
because we don't know exactly right.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
We don't know the motive, and they weren't apparently too
concerned about it. The son had already been investigated and
cleared according to some reports we're reading, isn't He wasn't cleared.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
He wasn't cleared, but he wasn't pushed on the list
of monitoring. But the father was clear enough to actually
have license for his firearm. All the firearms that were
used at they were licensed. The father had the license
to own every single one of them.
Speaker 5 (09:30):
How does that happen? And they have stricter gun rules
than we do. They actually have to list a purpose
behind why they need the firearm to get them.
Speaker 6 (09:39):
And he was and he had all of those permits, all.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Right, so mm hmm. Sorry, this is a bigger bit?
Is this? Is this just?
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You know, I don't believe in lone wolves anyway? But
do you think this is a pattern? We're going to
start seeing more and more? What was that face for?
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Why are you making that face? Any Oh?
Speaker 4 (09:57):
I'm sorry? Did my face steak louder than my mouth? Again?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
I mean, there is absolutely zero lone wolf scenario.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I don't believe in lone wolves. I don't believe in
lone wolves.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
And so what I'm asking is is this a global pattern?
Has someone said something in the brass or on social
media that was the trigger that was the go statement?
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Is there a Somber nineteen ninety eight, Osama bin Lauden.
December nineteen ninety eight, Osama bin Lauden issued a fatva
to kill the coffers during their sacred holiday? Is that
enough for the reason every Hongo Kong Christmas will get bloodshed?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
And now we're reading that maybe in LA where you're near.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
I think Hadia.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
They foiled a terrorist attack out there from multiple locations
for New Year's Eve, right, Yes.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
And so the larger point that I'm hoping to make
from each of these terrorist tacks if we include Brown Australia,
the foiled one in LA, and even Syria. Syria lesso,
so that's a little more isolated. Is that Again, I
go back to this statement about enves. These are nihilistic,
(11:12):
violent extremism, as the FBI is describing. They are a
merger of the left and the Islamis and you see
all over X people are like, he wasn't a Muslim,
He's a leftist, he's a white guy. We have to
stop with the boxes because the boxes don't matter.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
These groups have merged, and so the.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Group is that they're holding publicly accountable for the LA
terror attacks is the Turtle Liberation Front, the Turtle Island
Liberation Fund, and fascinating group because they talk about the
Christian Judeo heritage of the United States being a colonizing
influence that they want to rid the Turtle Island of
(11:55):
but basically have taken on the language of the Palestinian
movement of the Islamist movement in the Middle East merging
these ideas with this globalized the Intifada. But not just
for Palestine. They're saying all the countries that have been
supposedly colonized by the Judeo Christian tradition. So they say
(12:17):
it very publicly that who they consider to be the
world's colonizers are the Judeo Christian religions.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Okay, so where do you think we're headed with this on? Say, America?
What first of all, what can you tell us about
the La cases Hedia where you live.
Speaker 5 (12:35):
Well, like I'm saying, is that that these these guys,
they're going to put them in this far left box
and say these are just leftist radicals, but they're not.
If you look at that, and I send you a
picture of the of the girl with a T shirt
on because they claim to be they start off as
this indigenous movement claiming to be you know, Indians. So
(12:57):
look at the T shirt. So look at the woman
and you wouldn't consider her a Muslim. She doesn't have
to be a Muslim. But the T shirt says solidarity
from Turtle Island to Palestine. And so this movement has
very clear I looked up a bunch of their social
media posts they have. They're part of this electronic intifada
where they're basically merging these two networks together. And what
(13:20):
happens is a lot of the Jahati groups are infiltrating
these anarchists far leftist groups and inserting this language, participating
in joint rallies, participating in social media posts, showing up
at their teachings to merge these two forces. So we
have the soft side that we've already seen on campuses
where they're merging these ideas. Now we're seeing it in
(13:43):
the violent space, and I think that's what we're going
to continue to see. I still, despite everything that's out there,
believe that's what Tyler Robinson was a part of Charlie
Kirk's killer. And I think we're just going to see
a lot more of this, and it's going to deceive
the public because everybody's looking at Oh wait, no, this
is white, this guy's far left, this guy's Muslim, and
(14:03):
it's one group we're going to continue to see that.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Let's get to Syria. What do you tell our audience
abouts we have.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
The contractors National Guard. I think on Iowa murdered in Syria.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Annie.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Yes, we had two army soldiers killed, one American translator killed,
and three army soldiers wounded. This was supposedly a coordination
to take out few ISIS members in Syria. The information
(14:46):
and intel came from Syrian military. I need to be
very specific here for your audience when this say Syrian military,
I need you to understand.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
These are Al.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
Sharra's Jahadis soldiers that we just removed from terrorist list.
This is in some countries military just that's important. However,
unfortunately that intel turned into more of a trap where
our soldiers two of them were killed, a translator were killed, and.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
Three of them were wounded.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Because we have Syria under control and for some reason,
the ice is that many including right wing anti Sharia
movement leaders, talked about ISIS is done. We got rid
off ices. This narrative is started in twenty nineteen and
then twenty twenty they're like, IIS is done. Somehow, I
SAIS is back. It's in Syria, and I don't know
(15:38):
why we see the need or Pete's hex that sees
the need to send our soldiers to die for Syria.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
And Hadiya.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
So what is continue?
Speaker 5 (15:55):
What is going to continue to be a problem, very
different than what we were talking about with this Seyrian
young man being the hero in Australia. Is two different
kinds of Muslims. In the Syrian case, between Isis and
Shaddah's forces, they are the same kind of Muslim.
Speaker 6 (16:13):
So they're both Jahadis.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
They both believe in very strict interpretations of Shariah. They
both want to advance the Islamic cause. So how is
Sharah going to govern when everybody on his force has
a brother, cousin, nephew that is uncontrollable in his pursuit
of jahad. The country is filled with lawlessness, and I
(16:37):
don't understand how he's going to, at least for the
America's purposes, make a distinction between these guys, and he's
going to progress, hopefully progressively, look like he can't control
this his population, and that hopefully we will look for
another leader because he's claimed he has the street cred
(16:59):
to manage the but he won't. He won't be able
to manage them because they have a Jahadist mindset and
there's only so many people he's going to be able
to bribe to listen to him.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Can I be respectfully brutal here for a minute. Sure,
why is it our business to find a different leader?
Why is Syriah our business? When are we going to
give up? It is none of our business. Our soldiers,
they fight, they make an ultimate sacrifice for freedoms and
borders of America.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
I am tired.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
From Iraq to Afghanistan, to Libya to Syria.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
They can have what listen.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Hamas was picked by people of Palestine. It is none
of our business what happens to Palestinians if they exist,
because they don't. Same thing applies to Syria, even if
Iran's going to take over Syria. Again, we should have
never saved the Mola's life. But okay, fine, I don't
think we should even entertain that al Shara is.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Going to fail.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
Then we're going to find a different leaders. Who's going
to figure it out? No, we need to step aside,
back away, let them figure it out. How many more
of our soldiers are going to pay with their blood
fighting somebody else's fight.
Speaker 5 (18:19):
I definitely appreciate that sentiment, but that's just not the
way our diplomacy, Amraz works.
Speaker 6 (18:25):
We we well, we should make it. We should we
stick our fingers everywhere. I mean, I totally agree with you.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
We shouldn't have had soldiers on the ground, but I
think they had this false level of security that Shara
is our guy, He's going to protect us. So they
know better now.
Speaker 6 (18:43):
But the fact, but.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Who gave them that false sense of security? I believe
that would be Pete hexit Oh No, Pete Hexath bought
into that. If we say he didn't know and he believed,
which I don't believe that Buka Okay Trump told him
to believe him. So somebody needs to be held accountable.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
That's the bare minimum.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
But we sent our soldiers there on their false sense
of security. Now two of them are dead, three of
them are wounded, so he needs at least he needs
to be held accountable. And now we know, let's withdraw
our troops.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
I get the sentiment, but I find it unlikely to
believe the US will entirely step out of the Middle East.
I mean, it's too valuable to the United States to
have stability in the Middle East to do nothing, So
it is likely that we will continue to interfere.
Speaker 6 (19:46):
I wish we would get it right and interfere in
the right way, but we historically.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
Don't, and there are factions in our government or people
on the outside, you know that, isolationists who prefer we
do nothing anywhere.
Speaker 6 (20:02):
I just don't think that that's really plausible.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
Well, I wouldn't think that what I'm saying is sentiment.
I would say, considering as of right now, we the
people still hold the power over our government. If it
would get off our couches and our combia parties and
our false hope, we can absolutely change the diplomacy they're using.
(20:27):
Diplomacy is not part of our constitution. It is not
a written law. It can be changed at any given moment.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
So I think what I'm.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Proposing is a solution, but majority of Americans refuse to
see it as a solution because they are used to
the broken system. We just mourn the loss of our
young generation, move on to the next time that our
government gets our soldiers killed.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Let's switch gears real quick. How do you go?
Speaker 2 (20:56):
I think your time schedule crunch tonight about Brown University.
I guess the FBI has now released a new picture
tonight Brown University shooter. I guess he got off about
forty rounds into a classroom where the kids were studying
for a pre exam two killed. I think one is
(21:16):
a Republican leader student leader nineteen.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
I think.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
We're told that the individual shouted something, but they're not
telling us what was it? Pre Palestine? Was it ala Augbar?
Was it Merry Christmas? Happy Hanukah? Would they shout? Anybody
want to guess?
Speaker 5 (21:38):
Well, Laura Lumer put out that she has reports that
it was ala Akbar?
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Of course it was, so what else would it be?
Speaker 5 (21:46):
Well, it's curious to me because is this guy again
one of these radical leftists. Is he going to shout Palestine?
Is he going to shout colonization? Is he going to
shout the Jews?
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Like? Who knows?
Speaker 5 (21:58):
Because these guys don't have a common mL anymore. They're
this amalgamation of anarchists and so it's entirely unclear. Again
my reference to why we shouldn't have boxes, we just
maybe just one giant box of these crazies, and how
we're going to handle it.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Well, now they're I guess, announcing some money for finding
this guy.
Speaker 8 (22:24):
Let's see here now here from Colonel Oscar Press, thank you, Mata,
thank you all for being here again. Here we are
once again to provide you some of the highlights and
the progress that the Province Police Department are long with.
Several agencies have gone together and stepped up to come
up to this. I want to remind you that this
(22:45):
is a very active investigation, very complex investigation, and is
the dedicated work of the men and women of the
Providence Police Department, the Detective Division, the Community Response Team,
the special Response teams, all hens on deck, and on
top of it all, if you have the State Police
who's assist in us, and every other federal partner that
has been in this building for several hours, and I
(23:06):
want to comm in and applad them for the work
that they have done. And that includes the FBI, HSI, ATF,
the IRS, the marshals, and several agencies analysts that are here.
So it's pretty active because we want to make sure,
as the government stadents that may have stated, to make
sure that we identify this individual and bring them to justice.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
All right, and I guess they're offering five hundred thousand
dollars leading to the individual's arrest.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Any comments on this will let you, guys go.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
I will repeat what I've been repeating for a while.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Train yourself through your mind, your body, don't think it
happened somewhere else, it will never happen to you. With
the speed we're going, it's going to happen to every
single neighborhood, either a mall, university, school, church, synagogue, you name.
You have to genuinely be prepared. And as my pastor
(24:04):
said last Sunday at church, remember we do have the
armor of the God, but if you're not putting it on,
there's no use for it.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
It's a good comment. Hydia absolutely agree.
Speaker 5 (24:19):
We have to have situational awareness. Everybody has to realize
the threat that we're under, including students. We should go
back to the whole issue of no gun zones and
whether campuses are gun free campuses is basically creating yourself
as a target, and so we should be having armed
(24:39):
officers on our college campuses. There should be more security
on the doors. Apparently this place that they were able
to enter did not have security, that's what some of
the reports say. And better equip the students with run, hide, fight,
whatever strategy they're supposed to use in order to protect themselves,
because this is a twenty first century reality.
Speaker 6 (25:00):
Needs to be prepared.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
It's fifty thousand reward.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
I misspoken, not five hundred thousand and fifty thousand, resurrectministry
dot com. Resurrecministry dot com, and Annie is live up
to Freedom dot com, Live up to Freedom dot com
and lutf Studio dot com. We get that last minute
Christmas gift personally and handmade by Annie. She's wearing a
new one tonight, the red one. You made that right, Annie,
(25:23):
Yes there you go. All right, guys, as always, thank you,
and unfortunately, I guess we'll be seeing you guys again
soon to report on another terrorist attack, because that seems
to be the trend now and going into the end
of the year.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
I think we're going to see more of these for
the years over.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Do we have about thirty five seconds for me to
just add something. I just want to thank you for
the plug, but I want to say something, as I decided,
until we close the year, most of the week I'm
going to write on myself a second about history and today,
on December fifteenth, seventeen ninety one, our first ten Amendments
(26:03):
became the law, the Bill of Rights became the law,
and I just want to remind my fellow Americans, though
it's a tragic day where really we feel like we
can't even feel anymore after the last three days. Remember
those rights there for a reason. I broke it down
on my substack. But most of you know why they're there.
(26:24):
They weren't just placed there by our founding fathers so
we could leave a free life. They were also assigned
to every single one of us from there on to
be protected. The only way to protect our rights is
to constantly in every day practice our rights.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Agreed, We want to put this out there. Agreed.

Do you know what I mean now?
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Is Annie Cyrus and Hadiya Maramadi.
Speaker 1 (00:04):
Guys, welcome back to the broadcast. Thanks for being with us,
Thank you for having us.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
All right, let's start out with the terrorist attack in Australia.
Of course, Logan's got a bunch of b roll footage.
We can bring horrific, horrific. Dealt with it today at
one o'clock with Aaron, our reporter of the brund in Israel.
He has family members that live in Australia. The two
guys Pakistani is what we're hearing now.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
The Sun apparently had been on their radar.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
They've you know, Australia has opened up their borders bringing
all these Islamists.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Here's what you get, I mean, this is just ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
In the police response fifteen to twenty minutes without even responding.
Takes a private citizen who gets shot twice to do
the job of the cops. Because we're in an era
where we have you know, we don't have qualified cops.
We're largely pushing aside the good guys and ridiculing them
and calling them racist and all kinds of things if
they're good cops. So we can hire a bunch of
(01:02):
community organizers, so you know, same problems in Australia as
we have here in America. The whole thing is just disgusting.
There was a police station reportedly within eyesight of this incident.
How we have a Honika by the sea event where
you have a couple structures to give the high ground.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
How that's how this was allowed to happen.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Or they don't have their own private security or more
government security. It just seemed like the whole thing at
many levels is troubling. Not I'm not blaming anything on
the Jews, but I am certainly concerned that there wasn't
thought by somebody that this is not a good location.
There's just too much high ground. But this guy the sun,
(01:49):
he's rattling off his shot so fast. He clearly had
training somewhere. Now we're hearing reports, whether they're true or not,
I don't know, but I'm reading reports that the two
the two had just been over in the Philippines. So
were they over there getting training or what? I don't
know what's the latest? You know, let's go with you first, Annie,
what are you hearing?
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I want to emphasize on something. This was not the
first time we faced a father's son Pakistani father's son
duet of attack. If you remember, Brand and I came
on your show because nobody else was covering it. In Utah,
days after Charlie Kirk was moordered, there was a bomb
that malfunctioned and they didn't go puff and behind that
(02:34):
bombing in Utah wre the father and son from Pakistan.
I think that's important to mention. Why is it important
to mention? A lot of people keep saying close the border,
don't let people in.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
A lot of.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
These sons are the first generation. Their parents came from
Pakistan and Sara and of Pankistan and Iran. They were
born here. Like the Utah attack that we were blessed
that lord, they didn't let that bond go off. But
with the son and father in Australia, you look, the
whole scene just seems so bizarre. The police is there,
(03:13):
but they might have as well not be there. The
people again not blaming, but do they never train their
mindset that this kind of thing is happening every day?
Do they not understand we're getting closer to Hanukov, We're
getting closer to Christmas?
Speaker 4 (03:28):
They step up.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
They're always a step up their game when it comes
to our holidays. That's just given. How could even the
man and I have to be very careful here Because
I received some backlash saying this.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
I am not saying this because.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
The biastandard hero was a Muslim from Syria. No, I'm
not saying that he should have done better. I'm saying that. Okay,
you had the bravery to grab the rifle from the father.
Did you put the rifle white the tree in? Put
your arm up? What was that about? That was just
(04:06):
about twenty twenty five seconds for the father to make
his way up to the bridge next to the son,
grab the other rifle and.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
Start shooting again.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Why did you put yourself in danger? That all comes
back from mindset. Oh I got the gun. I don't
need to do No, you got the gun, you aim
at the person, you shoot him. I'm not saying kill him,
me kap them something.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Do we know if that guy is Buzzlom because we're
getting reported he is, yeah, from Syria? Wait wait wait, wait?
Is Maronite? What is that?
Speaker 5 (04:38):
I heard he was a Lebanese Maronite owned a store,
But that's not correct.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
That's what he is from Syria he's from Syria. The
mother and father both did the interview from the hospital bed.
They are very proud and they literally said, we are
proud of him.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
So is our entire village in Syria.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Okay, so he was a Muslim, but he obviously wasn't
a practice practicing Islam, right he would he have been
considered a hypocrite annie he.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Would definitely as it is. And that's the thing again.
Did he put down the rifle and not shoot the
attacker for not putting more heat on himself for being
a Muslim who killed a Muslim?
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Because that's unforgivable.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Absolutely, if you're a Muslim and kill a Muslim who's
killing Kaffers, you have to pay with your blood.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
It's my guess. I'm not saying that's why he did it.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
But are you thinking that he was like Sharam Haden's dad,
a beer drinking, pork eating Muslim, meaning he wasn't Islamist?
Is this guy likely just Hey, you know, he was
born into the Muslim family, but he's not a practicing Muslim.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
He might be, he's not activated, he doesn't practice jahad yet.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
What are your thoughts? What are your thoughts? Hadiyah?
Speaker 6 (05:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:53):
Whatever, terminology you want to use, whether he's normatively culturally Muslim,
but not a Jahadist, not an a s U.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
Yeah, this is actually I saw conflicting reports.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
I heard it was Brenite, but I didn't know that
his family had been interviewed. But another caveat I wanted
to add is that, you know, because of all the
backlash for people who do take actions into their own hand,
like remember our own subway incident where the gentleman intervened
and then he got prosecuted, there could be this fear
that he was going to get retaliated against if he
(06:26):
took any action other than disarm him. But I also
want to say that we have to look at what
and I'm I presumable going to look at all these
events in totality. We've talked about this rush of you know,
soft target attacks, and we keep talking about them in
isolated examples per country, and I think we really should
(06:48):
be looking at this as a global in a global
attack against the West. And as these incidentss pop off
every day, we have to realize we are in a
war of sorts and when are people going to start
to prepare? As Andy was mentioning preparing and having the
mindset and situational awareness to realize that that's the state
(07:12):
that we're in. Tragically and horribly. But citizens need to
start taking responsibility for their safety because law enforcement. I
have a ten minute video where I hear sirens in
the background and there's no response in no police presence.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Well, so here's a clip by one guy about that
very fact.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Should we go.
Speaker 7 (07:31):
A simple as that twenty minutes was four policemen there,
nobody give fire back.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Nothing, twenty minutes, no fire back nothing.
Speaker 7 (07:40):
The cruise that foot it looked like twenty minutes, and
they should the guy change magazine. I look at him
all the time. I was with two of my babies
under me, and I look at that and it's just
where I felt, and a pistol and just should should
And the other one was under the start to come
close to the m one. I think one of the
(08:03):
people come took his rifle and shoot him.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
That's one of them.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
That's what I saw.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
So you know, basically, look, he's reloading. Why not take
advantage of the fact he's reloading. But no, they didn't,
And the excuse.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Is going to be casualties.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
Too many people the crowd goes moving with them, want
to shoot innocent people? That's going to be the excuse
behind it.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Well, when it comes to casualties, here we go. He're
the cops wasting their time on this piece of trash.
You know, why are we wasting our time trying to
save this piece of trash? Those cops should be out
there helping the victims, not this piece of garbage. Does
he one disagree with that?
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I do not, But I know what's going to be
the excuse behind that too. They wanted to capture one
of them, at least alive, to get information to see
what was their motive.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Yeah, well, I don't know that. We don't know the motive, right,
because we don't know exactly right.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
We don't know the motive, and they weren't apparently too
concerned about it. The son had already been investigated and
cleared according to some reports we're reading, isn't He wasn't cleared.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
He wasn't cleared, but he wasn't pushed on the list
of monitoring. But the father was clear enough to actually
have license for his firearm. All the firearms that were
used at they were licensed. The father had the license
to own every single one of them.
Speaker 5 (09:30):
How does that happen? And they have stricter gun rules
than we do. They actually have to list a purpose
behind why they need the firearm to get them.
Speaker 6 (09:39):
And he was and he had all of those permits, all.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Right, so mm hmm. Sorry, this is a bigger bit?
Is this? Is this just?
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You know, I don't believe in lone wolves anyway? But
do you think this is a pattern? We're going to
start seeing more and more? What was that face for?
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Why are you making that face? Any Oh?
Speaker 4 (09:57):
I'm sorry? Did my face steak louder than my mouth? Again?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
I mean, there is absolutely zero lone wolf scenario.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I don't believe in lone wolves. I don't believe in
lone wolves.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
And so what I'm asking is is this a global pattern?
Has someone said something in the brass or on social
media that was the trigger that was the go statement?
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Is there a Somber nineteen ninety eight, Osama bin Lauden.
December nineteen ninety eight, Osama bin Lauden issued a fatva
to kill the coffers during their sacred holiday? Is that
enough for the reason every Hongo Kong Christmas will get bloodshed?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
And now we're reading that maybe in LA where you're near.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
I think Hadia.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
They foiled a terrorist attack out there from multiple locations
for New Year's Eve, right, Yes.
Speaker 5 (10:51):
And so the larger point that I'm hoping to make
from each of these terrorist tacks if we include Brown Australia,
the foiled one in LA, and even Syria. Syria lesso,
so that's a little more isolated. Is that Again, I
go back to this statement about enves. These are nihilistic,
(11:12):
violent extremism, as the FBI is describing. They are a
merger of the left and the Islamis and you see
all over X people are like, he wasn't a Muslim,
He's a leftist, he's a white guy. We have to
stop with the boxes because the boxes don't matter.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
These groups have merged, and so the.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Group is that they're holding publicly accountable for the LA
terror attacks is the Turtle Liberation Front, the Turtle Island
Liberation Fund, and fascinating group because they talk about the
Christian Judeo heritage of the United States being a colonizing
influence that they want to rid the Turtle Island of
(11:55):
but basically have taken on the language of the Palestinian
movement of the Islamist movement in the Middle East merging
these ideas with this globalized the Intifada. But not just
for Palestine. They're saying all the countries that have been
supposedly colonized by the Judeo Christian tradition. So they say
(12:17):
it very publicly that who they consider to be the
world's colonizers are the Judeo Christian religions.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Okay, so where do you think we're headed with this on? Say, America?
What first of all, what can you tell us about
the La cases Hedia where you live.
Speaker 5 (12:35):
Well, like I'm saying, is that that these these guys,
they're going to put them in this far left box
and say these are just leftist radicals, but they're not.
If you look at that, and I send you a
picture of the of the girl with a T shirt
on because they claim to be they start off as
this indigenous movement claiming to be you know, Indians. So
(12:57):
look at the T shirt. So look at the woman
and you wouldn't consider her a Muslim. She doesn't have
to be a Muslim. But the T shirt says solidarity
from Turtle Island to Palestine. And so this movement has
very clear I looked up a bunch of their social
media posts they have. They're part of this electronic intifada
where they're basically merging these two networks together. And what
(13:20):
happens is a lot of the Jahati groups are infiltrating
these anarchists far leftist groups and inserting this language, participating
in joint rallies, participating in social media posts, showing up
at their teachings to merge these two forces. So we
have the soft side that we've already seen on campuses
where they're merging these ideas. Now we're seeing it in
(13:43):
the violent space, and I think that's what we're going
to continue to see. I still, despite everything that's out there,
believe that's what Tyler Robinson was a part of Charlie
Kirk's killer. And I think we're just going to see
a lot more of this, and it's going to deceive
the public because everybody's looking at Oh wait, no, this
is white, this guy's far left, this guy's Muslim, and
(14:03):
it's one group we're going to continue to see that.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Let's get to Syria. What do you tell our audience
abouts we have.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
The contractors National Guard. I think on Iowa murdered in Syria.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Annie.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Yes, we had two army soldiers killed, one American translator killed,
and three army soldiers wounded. This was supposedly a coordination
to take out few ISIS members in Syria. The information
(14:46):
and intel came from Syrian military. I need to be
very specific here for your audience when this say Syrian military,
I need you to understand.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
These are Al.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
Sharra's Jahadis soldiers that we just removed from terrorist list.
This is in some countries military just that's important. However,
unfortunately that intel turned into more of a trap where
our soldiers two of them were killed, a translator were killed, and.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
Three of them were wounded.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Because we have Syria under control and for some reason,
the ice is that many including right wing anti Sharia
movement leaders, talked about ISIS is done. We got rid
off ices. This narrative is started in twenty nineteen and
then twenty twenty they're like, IIS is done. Somehow, I
SAIS is back. It's in Syria, and I don't know
(15:38):
why we see the need or Pete's hex that sees
the need to send our soldiers to die for Syria.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
And Hadiya.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
So what is continue?
Speaker 5 (15:55):
What is going to continue to be a problem, very
different than what we were talking about with this Seyrian
young man being the hero in Australia. Is two different
kinds of Muslims. In the Syrian case, between Isis and
Shaddah's forces, they are the same kind of Muslim.
Speaker 6 (16:13):
So they're both Jahadis.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
They both believe in very strict interpretations of Shariah. They
both want to advance the Islamic cause. So how is
Sharah going to govern when everybody on his force has
a brother, cousin, nephew that is uncontrollable in his pursuit
of jahad. The country is filled with lawlessness, and I
(16:37):
don't understand how he's going to, at least for the
America's purposes, make a distinction between these guys, and he's
going to progress, hopefully progressively, look like he can't control
this his population, and that hopefully we will look for
another leader because he's claimed he has the street cred
(16:59):
to manage the but he won't. He won't be able
to manage them because they have a Jahadist mindset and
there's only so many people he's going to be able
to bribe to listen to him.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Can I be respectfully brutal here for a minute. Sure,
why is it our business to find a different leader?
Why is Syriah our business? When are we going to
give up? It is none of our business. Our soldiers,
they fight, they make an ultimate sacrifice for freedoms and
borders of America.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
I am tired.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
From Iraq to Afghanistan, to Libya to Syria.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
They can have what listen.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Hamas was picked by people of Palestine. It is none
of our business what happens to Palestinians if they exist,
because they don't. Same thing applies to Syria, even if
Iran's going to take over Syria. Again, we should have
never saved the Mola's life. But okay, fine, I don't
think we should even entertain that al Shara is.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Going to fail.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
Then we're going to find a different leaders. Who's going
to figure it out? No, we need to step aside,
back away, let them figure it out. How many more
of our soldiers are going to pay with their blood
fighting somebody else's fight.
Speaker 5 (18:19):
I definitely appreciate that sentiment, but that's just not the
way our diplomacy, Amraz works.
Speaker 6 (18:25):
We we well, we should make it. We should we
stick our fingers everywhere. I mean, I totally agree with you.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
We shouldn't have had soldiers on the ground, but I
think they had this false level of security that Shara
is our guy, He's going to protect us. So they
know better now.
Speaker 6 (18:43):
But the fact, but.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Who gave them that false sense of security? I believe
that would be Pete hexit Oh No, Pete Hexath bought
into that. If we say he didn't know and he believed,
which I don't believe that Buka Okay Trump told him
to believe him. So somebody needs to be held accountable.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
That's the bare minimum.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
But we sent our soldiers there on their false sense
of security. Now two of them are dead, three of
them are wounded, so he needs at least he needs
to be held accountable. And now we know, let's withdraw
our troops.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
I get the sentiment, but I find it unlikely to
believe the US will entirely step out of the Middle East.
I mean, it's too valuable to the United States to
have stability in the Middle East to do nothing, So
it is likely that we will continue to interfere.
Speaker 6 (19:46):
I wish we would get it right and interfere in
the right way, but we historically.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
Don't, and there are factions in our government or people
on the outside, you know that, isolationists who prefer we
do nothing anywhere.
Speaker 6 (20:02):
I just don't think that that's really plausible.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
Well, I wouldn't think that what I'm saying is sentiment.
I would say, considering as of right now, we the
people still hold the power over our government. If it
would get off our couches and our combia parties and
our false hope, we can absolutely change the diplomacy they're using.
(20:27):
Diplomacy is not part of our constitution. It is not
a written law. It can be changed at any given moment.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
So I think what I'm.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Proposing is a solution, but majority of Americans refuse to
see it as a solution because they are used to
the broken system. We just mourn the loss of our
young generation, move on to the next time that our
government gets our soldiers killed.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Let's switch gears real quick. How do you go?
Speaker 2 (20:56):
I think your time schedule crunch tonight about Brown University.
I guess the FBI has now released a new picture
tonight Brown University shooter. I guess he got off about
forty rounds into a classroom where the kids were studying
for a pre exam two killed. I think one is
(21:16):
a Republican leader student leader nineteen.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
I think.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
We're told that the individual shouted something, but they're not
telling us what was it? Pre Palestine? Was it ala Augbar?
Was it Merry Christmas? Happy Hanukah? Would they shout? Anybody
want to guess?
Speaker 5 (21:38):
Well, Laura Lumer put out that she has reports that
it was ala Akbar?
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Of course it was, so what else would it be?
Speaker 5 (21:46):
Well, it's curious to me because is this guy again
one of these radical leftists. Is he going to shout Palestine?
Is he going to shout colonization? Is he going to
shout the Jews?
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Like? Who knows?
Speaker 5 (21:58):
Because these guys don't have a common mL anymore. They're
this amalgamation of anarchists and so it's entirely unclear. Again
my reference to why we shouldn't have boxes, we just
maybe just one giant box of these crazies, and how
we're going to handle it.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Well, now they're I guess, announcing some money for finding
this guy.
Speaker 8 (22:24):
Let's see here now here from Colonel Oscar Press, thank you, Mata,
thank you all for being here again. Here we are
once again to provide you some of the highlights and
the progress that the Province Police Department are long with.
Several agencies have gone together and stepped up to come
up to this. I want to remind you that this
(22:45):
is a very active investigation, very complex investigation, and is
the dedicated work of the men and women of the
Providence Police Department, the Detective Division, the Community Response Team,
the special Response teams, all hens on deck, and on
top of it all, if you have the State Police
who's assist in us, and every other federal partner that
has been in this building for several hours, and I
(23:06):
want to comm in and applad them for the work
that they have done. And that includes the FBI, HSI, ATF,
the IRS, the marshals, and several agencies analysts that are here.
So it's pretty active because we want to make sure,
as the government stadents that may have stated, to make
sure that we identify this individual and bring them to justice.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
All right, and I guess they're offering five hundred thousand
dollars leading to the individual's arrest.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Any comments on this will let you, guys go.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
I will repeat what I've been repeating for a while.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Train yourself through your mind, your body, don't think it
happened somewhere else, it will never happen to you. With
the speed we're going, it's going to happen to every
single neighborhood, either a mall, university, school, church, synagogue, you name.
You have to genuinely be prepared. And as my pastor
(24:04):
said last Sunday at church, remember we do have the
armor of the God, but if you're not putting it on,
there's no use for it.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
It's a good comment. Hydia absolutely agree.
Speaker 5 (24:19):
We have to have situational awareness. Everybody has to realize
the threat that we're under, including students. We should go
back to the whole issue of no gun zones and
whether campuses are gun free campuses is basically creating yourself
as a target, and so we should be having armed
(24:39):
officers on our college campuses. There should be more security
on the doors. Apparently this place that they were able
to enter did not have security, that's what some of
the reports say. And better equip the students with run, hide, fight,
whatever strategy they're supposed to use in order to protect themselves,
because this is a twenty first century reality.
Speaker 6 (25:00):
Needs to be prepared.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
It's fifty thousand reward.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
I misspoken, not five hundred thousand and fifty thousand, resurrectministry
dot com. Resurrecministry dot com, and Annie is live up
to Freedom dot com, Live up to Freedom dot com
and lutf Studio dot com. We get that last minute
Christmas gift personally and handmade by Annie. She's wearing a
new one tonight, the red one. You made that right, Annie,
(25:23):
Yes there you go. All right, guys, as always, thank you,
and unfortunately, I guess we'll be seeing you guys again
soon to report on another terrorist attack, because that seems
to be the trend now and going into the end
of the year.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
I think we're going to see more of these for
the years over.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Do we have about thirty five seconds for me to
just add something. I just want to thank you for
the plug, but I want to say something, as I decided,
until we close the year, most of the week I'm
going to write on myself a second about history and today,
on December fifteenth, seventeen ninety one, our first ten Amendments
(26:03):
became the law, the Bill of Rights became the law,
and I just want to remind my fellow Americans, though
it's a tragic day where really we feel like we
can't even feel anymore after the last three days. Remember
those rights there for a reason. I broke it down
on my substack. But most of you know why they're there.
(26:24):
They weren't just placed there by our founding fathers so
we could leave a free life. They were also assigned
to every single one of us from there on to
be protected. The only way to protect our rights is
to constantly in every day practice our rights.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Agreed, We want to put this out there. Agreed.
Speaker 2 (26:46):

The Burden
The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
