With PROCIREP support

Here in France, in the West

pornography is everywhere.

It is in everyone's head.

Why?

Because we see it in every picture,

in advertisements,

on television.

Concerning films they say

"forbidden for people under 18".

But what does that mean?

At the age of 17 you don't have

the right it's "haram".

But at the age of 18:

"Go on, watch it, no worries"

"Don't be shy, it's no big deal,

it's even good for you."

This is freedom!

And worst of all:

Internet !

Everywere in the West they say

that Internet is a freedom tool.

They say Internet is a progress tool,

a tool for feeling good.

But no, not at all!

Internet is the devil's workshop

It's where the pornography venom

flow through the viewers' veins.

And they say it's a progress.

It's rather unfortunate.

This is decadence!

An other sign of decadence:

gender relationships that

we see all over the world

like a spreading disease.

Relationship is when a man is alone

with a woman who don't belong to him

which is haram!

Here in the West this relationship

is not only lawful but it's encouraged.

Men and women who look,

talk and touch each other.

Wherever you go my brothers.

At work, in the streets,

in the subway, in schools, in hospitals.

This is decadence!

Because this morbid relationship leads to

"sex out of wedlock":

fornication and adultery.

And that's why a woman should

stay at home

to guard herself against bad temptations.

So don't forget when you're talking to a

woman that within her taboos

Allah puts "sex out of wedlock"

right after "murderer".

And still killing is forbidden

unless it's justified.

However "sex out of wedlock" is

never legitimate in the eyes of the Creator

Men and women who practise it

deserve the worst punishment.

Down here and in the hereafter

Of course you can do it during Ramadan

if you're married.

No you can't.

I swear to you. Between sunrise and sunset.

That's quite a negro thing to say isn't it?

Even with religion you find

a way to f*** it up, starfallah.

Shut up I saw it on the net.

Calm down my brother,

don't you see I'm making fun of you?

Anyway, neither of us is married.

I don't know why we're still talking.

The only thing I didn't find is

whether you can do anything.

What do you mean?

In bed with your wife!

Go on Mr. Know-it-all!

What is our sexual rights with a wife?

Foreplay, fellatio, penetration

no problem.

No sodomy. You go straight to hell.

Sidi?

What?

Look!

Red Beard?

Can I ask you another question?

Of course.

Is the price high?

Price for what?

The henna for your hair.

Peace be upon you my brother

Peace Christophe, you good?

Not Christophe, Youssef please!

Youssef, it's the same thing, go on.

I must speak to you.

Come here.

Abu Hassan came back this morning

Where are we seeing him?

We have a meeting at my place

at 18 p.m this evening

See ya soon guys!

See ya!

My name is Sam El Khansouri.

I was born in Paris in 1984

in a working-class family

of an Algerian father and a French mother.

I am a journalist

and backed by my Muslim culture,

I took the risk six months ago

of infiltrating clandestine mosques

in the Paris suburbs

in order to write a work

about jihadism.

One has to attend extermist imams sermons

to notice

their manipulation through language methods

resemble those of a sect leader.

Their young listeners seeking

for spirituaity

listen to them initially out of curiosity.

They come back out of conviction

then out of fanaticism.

They have become unable to think

for themselves.

Throughout my investigation, I've got

in contact with four disoriented men.

To earn their trust and protect my family,

I was forced to live in a hotel

and lie about my true identity.

Take a look, here's dad.

Do you want me to do it?

With pleasure.

Look!

Put it back!

Put it back on the wheel.

Huh Malik?

Don't eat that.

Is it good?

Good?

Good or what?

Hassan is an imam right?

No, Hassan is the group leader.

His real name is Pelletier.

He converted in jail.

He went to Pakistan for 6 months

in a training camp.

And then he wants to leave

permanently France for the holy war.

In any case, he must come back

with enough contact.

So what are other members doing

when he's not here?

They get motivated

and I think they will follow him.

They don't want to disappoint him.

Are you sure they don't doubt anything?

Impossible.

Except two or three war suras,

they know nothing about the Quran.

When are you planning to stop?

You're not going with them, are you?

Well, I don't have enough content

for the moment so...

I'm going back to the hotel but I promise

to come back home after their departure.

Alright. Well...

Don't worry!

It's almost done.

How the f*** can he play for

France national team?

What the hell is he doing ?

Thank god it's a friendly match bro.

Sam look at this!

I didn't know this one!

That's a good one.

Not bad!

Funny huh?

I'm saving it.

Do you parents know about your

conversion?

He's alone!

You're crazy.

If they knew it, they'd cut me off,

they'd kick me out of here. Nah!

My parents are very Catholic.

Why didn't you stay Catholic?

Because...

Because it was boring.

That's all?

What do you mean ?

What about you, why did you choose

your father's religion?

Well, my mother was communist so

there wasn't much future.

Yeah, you're right brother.

Come on now!

Driss please, I already told you.

Don't put your shoes on my Grandma's stuff.

Take your shoes off please.

Come on give me a break.

Hurry up, turn off the TV!

Hassan, my brother!

I'm so happy to see you.

We missed you.

Peace be upon you Christophe.

Nah, there's no more Christophe.

Christophe is done.

Let me introduce you to

Abu Youssef.

It suits you.

Really? You like it?

Come on in, they're all here.

Peace.

Peace be upon you my brother.

Hassan where is your beard?

I'll explain.

Good to see you.

We were freaked out.

You're not too tired, are you?

No, but I'm cold.

It was 40 in the shade over there.

Which way did you go?

Austria, Germany, Italy,

Greece,

Turkey, Iran, Pakistan.

I was placed in isolation in Peshawar.

Ten days of interrogation.

They reckon I was reliable and they

brought me to Waziristan

in tribal areas.

That's where training camps are.

What a f***ing trip.

Were there other French guys?

There are soldiers from everywhere

in the camps.

There were more than 30

nationalities in mine.

Even Japanese people.

Jap-Mujaheddins!

That's crazy talk!

How does it go over there?

It's tough.

They're testing to find out

who's mad.

You spend your day running,

crawling, doing push-ups.

Some live-fire exercises.

With theoritical courses and prayers.

Non-stop.

The most sensitive issue is when

they suspect a traitor.

They force him to kneel down

in the middle of the camp.

And they order one of his partner

to shoot in the back of his head.

If you don't, you're next.

Did it happen to you?
