In the Shadow of 9/11 (full documentary) | FRONTLINE
From the acclaimed director of “Leaving Neverland,” the story of the Liberty City Seven and the biggest alleged Al Qaeda plot since 9/11, told for the first time as a documentary feature.

This feature-length FRONTLINE film from Dan Reed explores the case of the Liberty City Seven, a group of Black men from Miami accused of planning an Al Qaeda plot to blow up U.S. buildings, including the Sears Tower in Chicago.
Their trial marked the federal government’s first major post-9/11 counterterrorism sting within the U.S. Yet the accused men had no weapons and had never communicated with anyone from Al Qaeda.
Through interviews with former Department of Justice officials and FBI agents, counterterrorism experts, attorneys, journalists, family members and several of the Liberty City Seven themselves, “In the Shadow of 9/11” offers a window into how law enforcement confronted the terror threat at home in the wake of 9/11 and the ramifications of a desperate search to hunt down the “enemy within.”

A setup of entrapment ! 👎
Well you were trying to steal from someone , what did you expect, you brought it on yourself
Boxcutters and complacency took down Bldg. 7? Hadn’t heard that one. What did the official 911 report say again about Bldg. 7? Oh, that’s right- ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! A building, not hit by anything, that J. Silverstein admitted on TV that he ordered it "pulled", imploded into its own footprint, and this mofo says it was boxcutters? 911 was an inside job.
It could never happen is when it happens.
A handful of dumbass dudes are gonna “overthrow the US government”? Really?
BULLSHIT.. no way, he smoked an ounce every 2 day… dude full of shit!!
The Democrats blame Bush like he was flying the planes however this is a case of blame the first white man in the room. These terrorists walked right into America under Clinton’s weak boarders and lived in San Diego under expired Visas prior to 911.
You cant scream FIRE in a building, you cant tell anyone you have a BOMB in an airport and your cant play around about terrorism. IT’S NOT THE FBI’S FAULT. Its YOURS!
@1:42 , how this dude talks like he ain’t know, he definitely knew. He trying to act all like
Wow, I was feeling bad for y’all, but now more than half way through this, I now feel for your brothers. If they had of been in every meeting with Scarface, never would have happened.
This had he followed in his dad’s footsteps, instead of being a knucklehead this would have never happened to him and his crew. But he let his drive for free money get the best of him. He was told the one guy was working with the Fed’s, but did his D.B.A listen? Nope just had his eye on money. And got caught up.
Ok did I hear that right ? I graduated from high school I don’t know how , and this was in the FBI ?
Deport deport
I’ve been on 2 jury trials these guys were course by a outside influence the FBI dropped the ball on this they should have never went to trial these guys were coerced in their confession
Why are we sorry for someone who believed he was negotiating with someone trying to plot a major terrorist threat, and instead of reporting the guy he tried to make some money? Like 911 didn’t mean crap.
OMG 😳 how funny!!. Robert Mueller.. Gonzalez FBI Attorney General…. How freaking despicable.
Naw he was just that dumb. I sold dope the whole time I was on federal probation.
I am totally unconvinced by Narseal’s "scam" narrative. Who seeks financing from Al-Qaeda? You know what you say when someone says they have connections to OBL? You walk away… Narseal sounds like a true believer that’s backpedaling after he was caught.
FBI ARE LIKE KEY STONE COPS ONLY GOOD AT FRAMING PEOPLE
Look up John O’Neill!!!! He was FBI he tried to warn his higher ups but they ignored him even though what he said was going to happen did and he had evidence to prove it but it’s down right suspicious how they froze him out made him retire and he died as head security of the world trade center on 911!! He was a real hero he stopped terrorists from attacking on the 2000 new yr celebration in NYC! And FBI still didn’t listen to him al because they didn’t like his personality and that he dressed nice. Was head strong and when he knew he was right he wasn’t politically correct when going about stopping terrorists plots! Look him up it’s disgusting how ital went down he could have possibly stopped 9/11 from happening if he wasn’t forced out!
This is why I hate the feds, they waste our tax money for convicting innocent lives for bullshit reason!
POVERTY MAKE PEOPLE DO DESPERATE THINGS ……… SO….. "THERE IS NO FREE WILL….". THERE IS ONLY SOCIAL ENGINEERING……..AND NEVER TRUST NO ONE…..
" Our SUBJECT….. "
OMG…,……….. 👀
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS INFORMATION…… THIS IS REAL EDUCATION 😂😂😂…
MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON OUR YOUTHS AND OUR YOUNG ADULTS 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
THESE KIDS DONT KNOW THE EVIL THAT IS IN THIS WORLD…….
THOSE YOUTHS AND YOUNG ADULTS THAT THINK THAT THEY KNOW IT ALL….
THIS WAS VERY INTERESTING AND INFORMATIVE……
THIS WAS A REAL SET-UP…. THIS POOR YOUNG MAN 😢 SAD… "NO FORETHOUGHT "…… 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕯️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🕯️🕊️🕊️🕊️
ALL PLANNED WHEN THE MONEY WAS MISSING
127:00 these brothers stuck to gather. Respect. I believe in investigations but not when they use snitches to do govt jobs. Poor people trying to create their own construction company. Young men. Assad and his recruiter were poor detictives. Dang Robert Muller just looks at paper work and not really looks into the in and outs of plots but we glorify or are taught to glorify govt officials that want innocent young men in jail.
Robert Mueller leads a Sting operation against neighborhood kids…. Is this the same clown that went after Trump and Russia gate for 4 years? what trash!!!
ENTRAPMENT FOR SURE
Waste of resources…..
37:40 and I used to stay at airport Hilton, for the night. After driving from fort Walton beach. it’s like 600 miles one way.and we would get a kilo in little Havana or south Miami. I stole a nice new white robe from there, this is in 1982_86, cocaine was cheap back then, 12kt to 15k for pink Peruvian. You could cut it by half. And people would beg for more.. I could get 1k for Oz. Those wer the days. There’s nothing worse than a snitch or a coward, except for the Hippocrates that make money off of that job. There’s a special spot for people who intrap others. And there’s no place in the Constitution or the bible that says intrapment, or snitching is good.
☠️💩🤡.
shameful. abusrd & shameful. shame on the fbi & us gov
How this guy didn’t know it was a setup is beyond me. The FBI heard a story about a guy who needed money and was willing to do anything for it.
I can’t watch this .. Because I found out Tower 7 fell on 911 without being hit by plane….!..& no,it wasn’t one of the Twin Towers..🎯
shameful, whistleblower!*
somehow," I’m even more convinced of race/genetics disadvantage being a reality.
One word . Money . People wouldn’t do half the shit they do if they had enough of it . Sad world we live in .
this literally should have ended the very first second on the first recording when he says " as soon as we have the money I’m out I want no part of that anymore"(i.e he’s not trying to be a terrorist, he wants the MONEY).
this is so insane
Oh, sh-t.
I thought it was In The Shadow Of 7-11.
Those convenience store workers are badasses.
That sh-t is gangster.
Did you know that working a convenience store is statistically more dangerous than working in law enforcement?
Imagine that.
More dangerous than law enforcement.
Which is why I worked graveyard.
At a convenience store.
Frequented by Federal law enforcement agents and assets.
So I began catching crooked feds for a hobby.
I needed to catch these people who had tried to kill me more than twice.
Who had got my dad’s wife murdered back in 1996.
Now, keep in mind that there has been every excuse in the book used to justify violations of my constitutionally guaranteed rights, including trying to get me killed.
More than twice.
I’m dying to know what excuse for Patricia Sweany’s murder someone wants to offer.
Really.
I would like to hear the excuse.
I’m all ears.
Dude is Fake as Fuck.. threw his dude’s under the bus. His sister is hilarious 😂 and right.. I’d keep an eye on this scammer.. he ain’t done
My brothers were innocent but the govt needed scapegoats after spending all that money on nothing.
Did your “style of religion” always include trying to scam other people out of money. Yo I’m glad I stay far away from religion because they’re either trying to rip you off or molest you if you’re the ripe child molesting age. One dude is religious and sold cocaine… interesting 🧐
WERE THEY SET UP ????
You want to run a scam, but the scam runs you. 😆😏😏
Yeah I blame them but the FBI took full advantage of these gentlemen and their homie Big B led them down a path of destruction, black people would never be apart of this if we could just survive!
Guy at 8:57 in fact is an actor.
Friday, if I’m not mistaken.
I’d have to look it up.
There are quite a few actors and actresses that are in federal law enforcement.
Problem that I have is when they f-ck with innocent people persistently in order to attempt to entrap them.
Have you seen the bullsh-t that I’ve been through.
Have you seen the nearly complete lack of accountability thus far.
It’s a problem when federal law enforcement agents can lie to you, publish fake news online or in print, but it’s a felony crime for you to lie to them.
At what point in the process of violating your constitutionally guaranteed rights are they supposed to stop?
Which boundary are they expected to not cross?
Keep in mind that the intelligence agency not under the DOJ’s oversight agreed with my assessment in early 2020.
My assessment included the small detail that I was going to come up missing if I did not do something about that to prevent it.
Drew lots of public attention to myself online in order to make it too difficult to be practical to implement.
It was during 2018.
Now, in 2018 I worked from mid-January through mid-December without a single day off.
Over 330 days in a row.
Because of federal law enforcement leaning on my former business partner, for example.
To prevent me from having any entire days off.
Which one of you has worked more than 330 days in a row?
I’d like to know.
I’m on record for my claim.
Ask the NSA.
They undoubtedly have a transcript of the entire year.
There are like eight different agencies in the loop right now.
This minute.
This location.
This Bat-channel.
This Bat-time.
Or.
We can resolve this like gentlemen.
Instead of hatey mchatersons with their hatred pulling dirty-ass shit.
Not into crookedness.
Though I do understand it.
Keep in mind that I know more about terminal and external ballistics than most people in federal law enforcement ever will.
There is a reason that I was assessed and had at least one federal law enforcement agency attempting to conscript me.
Indoctrination, to be followed by conscription whether I liked the idea or not.
That’s what has gone on here.
Due to a prolonged near death experience in 2012, I cannot correctly process fear any more.
So my risk tolerance is not the same as most people.
And I am not bound by constraints like the FBI likes to promote.
No smoking, for example.
That’s simply so one can be a better fit for a mold of someone else’s design.
That’s how it works.
No full disclosure.
Incremental behavioral modification takes place.
It’s more about psychological control than anything else.
Do you understand why my Easter eggs are permanently ingrained into the fabric of our society.
Do you have any idea of what has actually taken place.
Here.
Let me give you an example.
Everyone who came into my workplace would not admit to actually being who they were.
Every response to a question was an answer that I had given previously.
Signal intelligence of mine, after a fashion.
The goal was to destabilize me psychologically.
Gaslighting.
Like my father’s wife endured before her murder.
After months of this, it dawned on the participants that they had unwittingly been indoctrinated into my memes, my phrasing, my abstract mathematical identifiers.
My cult.
This pattern has spread further since then.
And let’s all understand that this is, in many ways, intended to be a form of confinement.
In theory, though not directly stated, it would be for my protection.
Like I want to sub that out for other people.
No, I really feel that I am better at threat assessment than most others.
Which one of you has 689 ft/lbs on tap?
Times 14+1/18?
At 90% odds to hit?
That’s roughly double the energy of a standard pressure 9mm.
.45 ACP standard round is 230 grains at 850 feet per second.
389 ft/lbs.
You guys know the formula to calculate ft/lbs of energy?
Familiar with the fact that national law enforcement average to hit with iron sights is 22% ?
740 ft/lbs sooner or later.
Ability with that round to defeat IIIA armor out to 125+ yards.
Few other advantages.
Now, why thee funny vibes.
Nobody has tried to kill you guys, have they?
How many times?
How many murdered family members you got?
The problem with my stories is that they are true.
When people hear that, they get a little freaked out sometimes.
It’s not that I have a death wish.
It’s that I have no reasonable expectation that normalcy is going to happen.
That my son won’t be held hostage.
That I won’t be expected to follow imaginary rules from pieces of shit.
There’s a lot of hyperbole.
A lot.
Stop watching television.
You will see far more poker tells.
Not only 1000s of americans, Millions of innocent t muims women, children and men.
This is soooo sad on so many levels! Entapment, inflammatory fabrications of and to US citizens, I just cant… I feel like I just watched Hitler selling his propaganda to Germany but here in the US, like our government is trying to make us unbeknownst nazi’s!?!? Is this real life, for those guys it is!!! Real stolen life.. Its sad! No one in the sting has to pay any price for lies or deceptions of their promises and aliances to terror. ALL OF THEM, including the informants and the detective implicitly made an alliance towards this non existent and fabricated threat, why do they not have to serve time??? If this guys were a threat and deserved to serve time then the detetive and sting operatives offering to assist them in it is worth at least a year in prison if theyre having people serve time for what could have never been!!! The stings creator kn down should have to serve time, minimally for wasting tax payer dollars and lying to its public! Shameful and embarrasing… May todays conspiracy theorist arent as crazy as they appear cuz this looks like a trial run to test the crap we the American people are willing to eat??? Sickens me…
Never doubt what one man is capable of in this world.
Holy hell! What a two-bit operation… and our tax dollars paid for it–very sad and embarrassing.
China wants you to believe that you must jump like a flea running mad all over the place.
"Think of all the stupid people you know , well most people are stupider than that". George Carlin. These guys are great example.
Pistole’s gotta get better speechwriters. He’s using the same idiots who wrote 9-11.
