-	When I was working with my handlers, you know,	0:00
	I told them that, you know, something I would like to	0:03
	do is I would like to have a camera on somebody or	0:06
	somebody's family member that was killed in the towers.	0:10
	A camera on them before, during and after, to see	0:13
	who these people are, and then I would like to take	0:17
	that video and show it to people in Al-Qaeda, that you know,	0:20
	that committed this, you know, to show them that, you know,	0:23
	like, these are people like me and you, okay.	0:25
	These are innocent people.	0:28
	And then in the same time	0:30
	I would like to show the Americans the normal day	0:32
	to day lives of some of these people, you know,	0:35
	how they were raised, how, who they were and how and	0:38
	what they've become in the end, you know.	0:41
	I mean, the biggest thing for us as humans is to	0:43
	try and understand each other.	0:46
	And that's the biggest problem we have, is that we refuse to	0:48
	understand, we refuse to understand each others views,	0:51
	we just see what we're doing and we see that as correct,	0:54
	and we want everybody to do the same.	0:58
	And in the end, I mean, we get bigger and bigger	1:00
	as human beings, but I think our mentality sometimes is	1:03
	just stuck in a small place.	1:06
