Take the weapons.

And while you're at it, can I see that watch!

Thank you.

We must have coffee again sometime.

On your knees!

Which tribe are you from?

Bani Khalid.

Ahmed, yes Amir! Make sure she has an escort.

I am from the Janahid.

I am a Yafidi.

I am a Rahmidi prisoner.

I am a Junfiz hostage.

Tell your people I was a hostage...

And tell them from now on time of slaves

and hostage taking is over.

I know the feeling.

Amir! It is true what that old dog spoke.

The only tribe that didnot take Nesib's gold are the Zamiri.

All I know about gold is, that it seems to fluctuate.

Let me lead you to my people,

You will need their help.

They have taken everything.

I swear by Almighty God, I will have my vengeance

on that son of the Zamiri b*tch.

Tell me about my mother.

Was she like you?

No, She was a high born,

She knew how to read and write.

Maybe Auda can teach you how to teach and right.

My brother is going to be a great modernizer.

Of course I am going to be his Minister Of Health.

And Education.

Maybe some others.

You know your father promised he would stand with us forever.

After marrying our Zamira.

But we never saw him since.

Good old dad!

You see! they ride like men...

Get back!

You killed the Amir!

What are you doing?

We are friends.

We freed your people.

Are you mad?

He is not breathing. Auda!

Get back! Give me some space.

You fools, you killed him!

I shot Amar, the prejurer.

You shot Auda Ibn Amar.

Ibn Zamira!

Son Of Zamira?

Why is he dressed like Amar?

My brother can't be dead!

Our Amir is dead!

Our Amir is dead!

Captain! Captain!

Prince Auda is at Beni Sirris camp, overthere.

Auda!

Auda! Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Okay. I was...

Its a... its a more suppurativa.

Its caused by skull trauma it gives

you all the symptoms of death.

That's why in the west they wait 36 hours

before they bury you.

Auda you lucky, you weren't for the mood of digging.

Some water for my brother!

I have always been told that that a Prince from,

our Zamiri blood will come for us from the dead.

Under the banner of the Prophet.

Alive, alive the Mahdi

our Auda is the Mahdi!

Give him some space. Give him some space.

Are you thirsty? Have some water.

Okay get back, give him some space.

What do they say?

Ali, I am not the Mahdi.

Tell them what is told.

Our little secret.

I am not the Mahdi.

I am not the Mahdi!

Take cover! Take cover!

Shoot that! Shoot the plane.

No one is injured, it's a miracle!

No body is hurt.

It's not that bad!

Leave the diagnosis to me.

Thank you.

Auda the bullet went through me.

Came out of my left shoulder, plates shattered.

But I think....

I think the problem, is it ruptured the aorta.

I'm drowning in my own blood.

Don't talk.

But it's difficult,

Ali, Please....

Submit to God.

You want me to kiss the foot that crushes me?

I'm so cold, hold me.

I'm scared of the dark.

All those virgins....

When you are beyond the grave,

And the Angel will ask who is your God?

what will you say?

ALLAH.

And when he ask you?

which is His Messenger?

Please, tell!

Please!

Mohammed.

And when the Angel comes and asks,

"What is your creed?"

Nabi! What do you say?

Islam.

My brother...

my brother...

Promise me you, will often turn the chessboard.

Look Sir!

We bring horses for you.

A present from the Anizas for the Amir.

Welcome!

We see you are giving extra ration to the horses and camel.

Yes!

That means we are going to fight, doesn't it?

The Anizas tribesmen are here, Amir.

They would like to ride with us.

They have brought us horses and riffles.

Where are they?

Over there.

Amars men are everywhere.

We're trapped.

They are all around us.

We're trapped!

We're surrounded.

I know, I saw them.

Do we have any option?

Yes, we do.

You can have anything you like.

Just...

Spare Hobeika.

Now my sons are dead.

So is Tarik.

I'm sorry for that.

All I want is for you to honor the terms,

we agreed upon fifteen years ago.

That's it?

That's it.

They said you couldn't be in a House Of ALLAH.

But I always knew you were....

And then, to bear back to the Northern Road because you knew,

I would reinforce the Yellw Belt.

It was a.... Was a Master Stroke.

But I was never in the desert.

Well somebody is.

Who's out there?

There are men coming.

Who are you?

We are the Bani Sadr, Amir.

You returned my beloved child to us.

Our guns are your guns.

You know where we are heading?

It would follow you to the other side of hell.

You! turn from there.

Leave your weapons.

I want every one of these things shut down.

Now.

Shut it down!

Move!

You! down from there.

Down!

Auda?

Praise God!

I thought you were dead.

No son could have done more than you did.

There was a rumor, you are riding with,

Some of The Southern Tribes.

I am not riding with some of them.

I am riding with all of them.

The Mahdi! Mahdi!

Little bastard!

The Mahdi?

The Mahdi?

He is the librarian for God Sake.

What is it you want?

I am taking The Yellow Belt.

You can't.

I gave my word.

It wasn't yours to give.

The Yellow Belt doesn't belongs to you.

Who does it belong to than, You?

It belongs to them.

And these are the men with whom you will what?

Build a new country?

They are with you today, but God knows who they will ride with tommorow.

But right now, they will die for me.

And when the dying is done, then what?

You will bend the Americans to your will?

I will do it alright!

I will build hospitals, schools.

Nesib is building schools.

Nesib is building hospitals.

These are the trifles the foreigners bestow on

us as if we were kept women.

They will never leave.

There will be more and more of them,

And they will build a thousand such places.

Because....

They suffer from a thirst that i so great,

It can never br quenched.

And even if they do leave,

Finally,

We will no longer recognize ourselves.

And now!

You will surrender you army to me.

Auda, I always used to ask something of you an Saleh,

To read the Quran.

Then you will remember, there is only one instance

In which a son may disobey his father.

Can you tell me what it is?

If you were asking me to not to believe in God.

Am I asking such a thing?

Auda, I swore I would kill you.

Vengeance!

Who did this?

That old fool of The Beni Sirri!

Auda, you're a fine boy.

A fine boy.

They will attack as we circle.

Take your positions!

Fire!

This way!

Back to the derricks!

Towards the derricks!

Auda!

You mere, son of a Zamiri b*tch.

Where did you learn to fight?

In the library?

You cannot meet your princess like this.

You're right.

Perhaps I will meet you some time,

In the desert.

Where the Zamiri roam.

And men and women fit together.

Like water and thirst.

When they meet,

They are everything.

Alone we are nothing.

Magrouf!

Stop her.

Are you sure, Amir?

Turn your backs everybody,

Everybody turn your backs.

Turn your backs! Away from the women!

All eyes to the mountains.

My boy from a book!
