Season 1 Episode 1

Episode 1: Introducing Terror Talk – Yassin Aref and Mohammed Hossain

On August 4, 2004, two Muslim men in Albany, New York, were arrested by the FBI for a terror plot.

Did the FBI really arrest a terrorist “Commander” from Iraq? Or, a medi-cab driver who was also the spiritual leader of an inner-city mosque?

Two lawyers and two activists will describe the FBI raid on the mosque and begin the story of what happened to Yassin Aref and Mohammed Hossain, the imam of the Masjid As-Salam, and a pizzeria owner.
