The Newburgh Sting (2014) is a documentary film about the Federal Bureau of Investigation's sting operation on four Muslim men involved in the 2009 Bronx terrorism plot. Beginning in 2008, an FBI informant, Shaheed Hussain, recorded hours of conversations with the men who were ultimately arrested and convicted of planting three non-functional bombs next to two synagogues in Riverdale, Bronx and for planning to use Stinger missiles to shoot down United States military cargo planes near Newburgh, New York. The documentary shows that the four men were coaxed into participating in the plot by an FBI informant and offered incentives including $250,000. The men's lawyers argue that this was a case of entrapment.

Synopsis

À seulement 60 miles au nord de New York se trouve la ville pauvre de Newburgh, où, en 2009, quatre hommes ont été arrêtés pour un plan visant à bombarder deux centres juifs dans le Bronx. Mais leur chef, un homme d'affaires pakistanais suspect placé par le gouvernement comme informateur, a conduit ces hommes directement entre les mains des autorités. Avec des images sans fin recueillies à partir de caméras cachées, les réalisateurs David Heilbroner et Kate Davis enquêtent sur ce que signifie vraiment le terrorisme local dans cet exposé choquant et galvanisant.

Part 1: Pride and Genocide deals with the carnage and its immediate aftermath. It examines the patterns of pre-planned genocidal violence (by right-wing Hindutva cadres), which many claim was state-supported, if not state-sponsored. The film reconstructs through eyewitness accounts the attack on Gulbarg and Patiya (Ahmedabad) and acts of barbaric violence against Moslem women at Eral and Delol/Kalol (Panchmahals) even as Chief Minister Modi traverses the state on his Gaurav Yatra

The movie begins with the following statement: This is a film about radical Islamic terror. A dangerous ideology, fueled by religious hatred. It's important to remember most Muslims are peaceful and do not support terror. This is not a film about them. This is a film about a radical worldview, and the threat it poses to us all, Muslim and non-Muslim alike. The film uses many images from Arab TV, provided by the Middle East Media Research Institute and Palestinian Media Watch.
