	Yes. I was in London.	0:08
	"What you were doing there?"	0:10
	Yes, I was in cage prisoners, yes.	0:11
	We follow some cases, you know,	0:13
	for ex-detainees for Guantanamo.	0:16
	When they have for the harassment,	0:18
	when they go somewhere they are harassed,	0:21
	something like that.	0:23
	So they don't stop.	0:28
	One time I go to German, they stop me three times.	0:31
Interviewer	And they asked you the same questions?	0:35
	Or what questions where they asking?	0:37
-	No, they look, they say, they show me all day.	0:38
	"We are The Worshipers of America.	0:44
	So don't worry everywhere, America has worshipers	0:46
	and they will do what she says.	0:49
	And we will harass you everywhere	0:54
	because our god is America."	0:56
Interviewer	And how did they know	1:01
	that you're were in Guantanamo?	1:02
-	Huh? What?	1:05
-	How did they know that you were in Guantanamo?	1:07
-	I don't think that everyone knows, but they stopped me.	1:09
	So they got something.	1:14
	Someone told them to stop.	1:16
	They will shoot us, the worshipers.	1:18
	I think, I don't know.	1:22
	But that is the reality.	1:24
	Like I told you, America don't want to change.	1:26
	They killed the Indians, they take their lands.	1:29
	And then they have sorrow about it	1:32
	after a hundred or 200 years.	1:34
	Understand?	1:36
	And they are still in reservations.	1:38
	There are don't go.	1:40
	And after that they search for other victims.	1:42
	because America is finished now.	1:44
	They have no resources there.	1:46
	So they need to get something else, somewhere else.	1:47
	And so there are now Muslims.	1:51
	They are now busy with Muslims.	1:54
	They take them to Guantanamo.	1:56
	And then they will sorrow about them after that.	1:59
	They will cry but there will be other victims.	2:01
	I shall sorry	2:03
	and they will also cry about them after 100 years.	2:05
	But the same politic is God in America.	2:08
	And that is what I think.	2:12
	They never changed.	2:14
	It's still the same.	2:16
