Jan:
Now let us go to a very special
lady who I had the privilege of meeting in February. Let's bring on Caryl. Caryl
Matrisciana welcome to the Twin Cities and beyond.
Caryl:
Welcome, welcome, welcome. Thank you
for this wonderful welcome Jan. You are so welcome and I just love being with
you and talking to you.
Jan:
Boy, I tell you, I loved meeting you in
February. You were here. You are making another new film on, you are going to
update Harry Potter, I believe, and…
Caryl:
Yes.
Jan:
With Wendell Amstutz. It was just such a
privilege to meet you at that time, and I think that film is coming out down the
road a bit, perhaps this coming winter, is that right?
Caryl:
Yes, I am hoping so. At the moment I am
consumed with the latest release which was The New Barbarians.
Jan:
And that's where were headed here. Let me
just tell folks again. I did talk about you earlier in the program Caryl, and we
had some announcements to make and I didn't really want to waste your time. I
did tell them, however, at the beginning of the program that you have, for the
past 21 years, you were the Creative Director for Jeremiah Films and contributed
research expertise and helped produce more than 30 journalistic documentaries
revealing today's cultural trends. Now your most recent video, film, is The New
Barbarians, which I have watched. Let me just say this Caryl, before I go any
further. This morning I do have a co-host in the studio with me. His name is
David Wheaton, who has also seen the film, and both David and I will be quizzing
you for the next, well until 11 a.m. our time. Now Caryl, just let me. David, do
you want to greet Caryl?
David:
Caryl hello. I just want to say I
really enjoyed watching the video last night. It really is a revelation, I
think. I think a lot of our listeners today would like to hear it, and I want to
make sure they have an opportunity to get this video at some point, because it
is a powerful imaging in words about what is truly going on in the Middle
East.
Caryl:
Well David, thank you so much and it is
nice to meet you. I'm not sure that enjoying the film is the right…..
David:
Your right, your right, exactly. It's
illuminating, let's put it that way.
Caryl:
Yes.
Jan:
Now, let's just clarify one thing, are
you with a new production company, Proclaim Production?
Caryl:
No, I actually, I've gone out on my
own. It is new in the sense of being a strong journalistic piece, for the first
time kind of on my own, as Jeremiah Films is turning more towards theatrical
film release and family entertainment. I still feel very led and love doing
journalistic pieces and expose documentaries, which I feel is my forte. So, I
have branched out on my own.
Jan:
Yes, that's what I thought, and you know
I became familiar with you Caryl, were gonna date each other here a little bit,
I think you and I are close to the same age. I got familiar with you with your
video Gods of the New Age, which is one of the most powerful videos I have also
seen.
Caryl:
Well, thank you so much Jan. Yes, that
was my debut video with Jeremiah Films, and Pat and I traveled to India to film
that, and interviewed the gurus and god men in India where I was actually
born.
Jan:
Yes.
Caryl:
And so, going back to my roots, so to
speak, and being able to talk to people and find out true Eastern Mysticism and
Hinduism as they understand it, then seeing its repackaging in the churches in
the West, through the self-help movements, through psychology, through
alternative medicine, and through education was all part of Gods of the New Age.
It was a very exciting documentary to make, and I also wrote a book to go along
with it. Actually I am on the verge of republishing.
Jan:
Okay, and let me just add here
parenthetically, because Caryl raised a point, and that is next Saturday we are
going to be dealing with the issue of alternative medicine. We will spend almost
two hours on it with Dr. Jacobson, his first name escapes me. He has co-authored
a book with, I'm blanking out, Neil Anderson on alternative medicine. Not to say
that all of it is bad. I think that there perhaps is, I'm going to share with
you next Saturday my own encounter with alternative medicine, which I will tell
you right upfront, was almost deadly. But, that is not to say that there aren't
some aspects that we can consider perhaps helpful. So that is just a promo for
next week. Because of Caryl's comment, I felt was timely to throw in. Now, let's
go right to your newest production, as David and I do have comments and
questions for you. And Caryl, you have captured some of the most awesome and
graphic film on this newest production of yours. Now as an expert on cults,
which you are, and you state that you have never seen anything, nor have I by
the way, like the mind control being used in the brainwashing of Muslim
children. That is basically what this new production is about folks, The New
Barbarians, Training Children to Kill. Mainly about the brainwashing of these
Islamic children, I have never seen anything like it, and you have had a
lifetime in the cults, you primarily highlight this in the video, particularly
as they are directed against Israel. But also America, as young as 2 and 3 year
olds, and you have that documented here in this video.
Caryl:
Yes, I think the most powerful thing
about the video is that it is raw footage taken directly off Arab TV and the
internet, and does reveal the most shocking indoctrination of Arab children in
the Middle East. As I showed, 10,000 children a year go through these summer
assault courses where they are taught to load guns, be involved in terrorist
activities, like slitting the throats of infidels, high jacking cars, and
basically they are taught to hate. These camps and these children are just
brought up to invite hatred towards the Jews, and believe in the total
annihilation of the existence of Israel.
David:
You know Caryl, what struck me most
about the video is just what you mentioned, the amount of hate that you can see
in the eyes of the people over there towards the Jews. I mean it really is what
I felt to be, really only can be described as a Satanically inspired hatred for
another group of people as you watch the film. The subtitle of the film is
Training Children to Kill, and that is certainly presented very much throughout
the film, but it really gives a gray background on the conflict in the Middle
East, and the history of it, and what the word Palestine means and who the
groups are. It really is excellent, and for anyone who wants to get educated
this would be a tremendous film to do that. Caryl, why don't you give us the way
we can get this film.
Caryl:
Well, thank you so much David. Your
listeners can order it through the 800, through my toll free 800 number, which
is 1-800-897-5080, that is 5-0-8-0.
Jan:
We'll repeat that.
David:
We will. I guess my question is,
looking at this and training these young people to hate and grow up, that's how
you change a generation, you know that's how America tries to raise a great
generation through education and so forth. They are educating in a different way
over there. Their summer camps are not roasting marshmallows over a fire, it is
learning how to kill Jews and anyone who is not a Muslim. Tell me, is there any
precedence that you have seen in past history for, let me give you an example,
of a mother being pleased that her son has just gone and blown himself up and
killed Jews? Is there any precedence for that in history?
Jan:
Jews are Americans.
Caryl:
David, I have not seen it, that is why
I put this film together because in all my dealings in the cults over the years
where, you know, for the last couple of decades, it has just been sort of
leaders such as Jim Jones who got 960 people to take Cyanide, to take orange
juice laced with poison, and kill themselves. They did it in a sense
voluntarily, and in a sense I suppose that those mothers did give their children
the medicine, but this is so different because this is a generation. I mean, we
are talking of thousands of Arab children and hundreds of thousands of mothers
who are actually supporting their children strapping themselves with detonating
explosives and believing it to be a spiritual calling that these children and
their families will go into heaven. And of course the political leaders, and
this is the shocking part of the film, is that the political leaders are paying
these families $25,000 a family to incite their children to murder. And we are
not talking about suicide here, because even though life is very precious, if
somebody chooses to commit suicide and go off quietly and privately and do it,
that is their own choice. But, this is actually murder bombs, these are homicide
bombs and genocide bombs where they are blowing up a race of people whose only
crime is that they are Jewish.
Jan:
Now Caryl, by the way, we are talking, if
you just joined us, talking with Caryl Matrisciana who has 21 years as Creative
Director at Jeremiah Films, contributed to research expertise, and helped
produce more than 30 journalistic documentaries. But Caryl, I want to just jump
to another area here, because you have teamed up here a little bit, or at least
you showed a lot of Steve Emerson's video Jihad in America, which by the way
folks was scrapped by PBS. PBS asked him to make it, but they decided it was
politically incorrect, as it was profiling Muslims in America and causing them,
perhaps, harm or danger. You, in a sense, teamed up with Steve here, because he
produced this Jihad in America back in 1994, where he forewarned us, forewarned
Americans, that this was coming to America. You also, in your video, in your
film, you go into the summer camps that are going on right here. As a matter of
a fact, there are nine, in a sense, terror training camps within our
borders.
Caryl:
Well Jan, you have hit the nail on the
head by saying that this film was produced in 1994, where Steve documented,
Steve Emerson the producer of the film, documented what was taking place before
September 11th and the Twin Towers. In fact, Steve stands in front of the Twin
Towers, which was just such a shocking and extraordinary interview, that several
years later those would no longer be there. Now, what he said in 1994 was that
there were nine camps in military training, but obviously it has grown because
there are more Muslims in this country. The numbers are rising and I think it
has gone beyond 7 million in this country. Of course, I am not saying that all
Muslims are jihad terrorists.
Jan:
Nor are we.
Caryl:
And, certainly that wasn't the point of
the film, it was to show that American Muslims are funding, many American
Muslims are funding, the Hammas and the jihad terrorist movements in the Middle
East. The money is coming from America, to have terrorism within American
cities, as we saw with the New York falling of the Twin Towers. That was
American money and jihad followers. One of the desperately tragic things about
this fundamentalist jihad movement is that these children, these youth, that we
saw with the 19 young men that became genocide and homicide bombs in 9-11, were
trained in America. They were trained to fly the planes here, they were living
within American borders in order to destroy the American lifestyle. Then, the
most shocking thing was to see the reactions in the Middle East, where there was
joyful singing, clapping, and dancing.
Jan:
I am glad that you put that on your film
Caryl.
David:
Caryl, I have a question for you
regarding President Bush's previous comments about Islam being a religion of
peace. I think there is a lot of confusion about this. Who are the real devout
Muslims? The ones that are taking the Koran in a very literal way, and blowing
themselves up, and declaring jihad on the world and anyone who is an infidel? Or
is it the other Muslims who are "peace loving?" Which is the real Islam?
Caryl:
David, that is a very good question and
a complex one, because obviously to maintain political correctness one has to
show that there is a differing theology. However, as I showed in the film, The
New Barbarians, Training Children to Kill, we see that the Koran, which is a
book written by Mohammad, the founder of Islam, was a militant, is a militant
belief. I mean Mohammad clearly wanted the world to become an Islamic state. And
we see that such leaders as Saddam Hussein is also calling for the new world
order of Islam, and we understand that devout Muslims do want conversion under
the sword and under terrorism. The rest of the world, which is strongly Islamic
puts into practice a physical jihad or holy war disciplines. However, the
Americans, the American Muslims, who have a place in a democratic society,
perhaps many of them don't choose to be involved in physical jihad, and support
it maybe in a spiritual sense. That is what the theologians, the new Islamic
theologians, are trying to sort of rewrite, Islam for this democratic society.
However, in essence, jihad is a very integral part of Islam and I think……
Jan:
Yes it is.
Caryl:
….what your
listeners need to understand is we have to almost have another mindset when
understanding Islam. In America we have the separation of church and state, but
Islam is both religious and political and there is no separation.
Jan: You make an excellent parallel in your video
movie here. We're talking to Caryl Matrsiciana, her newest video is The New
Barbarians, Training Children to Kill. You make an excellent parallel to the
times of Hitler and today. The Saddams, the bin Ladens, the Arafats, the new
breed of men who want to reshape the world just at Hitler did. Hitler had
mandatory youth training. He wanted to bring the world to his standards and
guidelines. He wanted to create what could be called the new man. I think you
make that comparison. Obviously Hitler didn't have weapons of mass destruction,
maybe that is the primary difference between the barbarians of yesterday and the
barbarians of today.
Caryl:
Very good point Jan, and I did want to
show that parallel because it is frightening when one sees 60,000 young children
between 12 and 17 in Saddam Hussein's army and you see the visuals of those
young children tearing apart live chickens with their teeth and bare hands, and
realize that their indoctrination is so filled with hatred towards Israel and
the supporters of Israel, which is mainly the Americans. We see that even now
with the peace talks and the road map to peace where Israel is contemplating
allowing Palestine to have its own state, under the promise that America will be
more supportive of Israel. Well, that immediately brings in dangers to our
security at home when we understand that the Muslims in this country are taught
to kill through the Mosques, in the Mosques, that is where a lot of their
instruction comes for Jihad, as you saw in the film The New Barbarians. There
were religious leaders that were standing up telling their followers to hate the
Americans and kill them wherever they are. You have those religious speakers
saying that even in America the Muslims need to kill Americans.
Jan:
It is traveling. You wonder what is being
taught in these mosques, because after the Friday sermons and these mullahs, and
still all sorts of who knows what, all sorts of barbarian sentiment in those
that are attending services. Look at the contrast between Christianity and
Islam, because when we leave our religious services, our churches, we go out
with hopefully the desire to serve the living God. And yet, the end of these
services in the mosques of many parts of the world, the mullahs are telling the
people to go out and kill, what a contrast in the two religions.
Caryl:
Absolutely, and I think one sees that
in a democracy there is freedom to pursue the religion that the individual wants
to pursue. In Arab countries, where Islam is both religion and political, these
people do not have the freedom, even if they want to, they have to keep their
views private. If they are merely, let's say, moderate Muslims, they are just as
much in jeopardy of being killed and tortured.
Jan:
I think that's a good point to raise,
yeah, because Muslims kill Muslims.
Caryl:
Yes they do, and I think the most
shocking thing about The New Barbarians, Training Children to Kill, is to see
how urgent their desire is to annihilate Israel, where they absolutely do not
even agree, they do not even accept the presence of Jews in the Middle East, in
that tiny little land which is no bigger than New Jersey. When I showed you the
map in the video, indeed how much land the Arabs have, surely there is no
reason…
Jan:
Let's pick up on that Caryl, we've got to
take our top of the hour break and when we come back, talking to Caryl
Matrisciana here on her newest film The New Barbarians, Training Children to
Kill. But, we're out of time for this first hour. We're coming back right at the
top of the hour, we'll continue our discussion, AM 980 KKMS. Prophetic Views
Behind the News, Saturdays 9 am to 11. Repeated Sundays 12 noon to 2 pm. Please
stick with us AM 980 KKMS more spirited talk radio.
Jan:
….computer problems, Marty says we didn't
get our introduction on the second hour, but we are back live here in the studio
and we have as a very special guest this morning Caryl Matrisciana. For the past
21 years Caryl was the Creative Director at Jeremiah Films, contributed to
research expertise, and helped produce more than 30 journalistic commentaries,
documentaries rather, revealing today's cultural trends. Her latest, and
powerful, film is The New Barbarians, Training Children to Kill. And again, if
you are just joining us, as many do throughout the two hours, and I have in the
studio with me David Wheaton from Beyond Sports, but David has also subbed for
Tom Marshal and Todd Freol. Now he is going to be joining Behind the News, at
least when he can. David travels a great deal so hopefully David will get the
schedule worked out and
David:
Be here as much as I can Jan.
Jan:
Alright Caryl, are you with us?
Caryl:
Yes I am Jan.
Jan:
I want to go back to your statement, as I
cut you a little bit short because of clocks. We were talking a little bit about
the fact that Israel is really the size of New Jersey, and you make an
outstanding case for the, well first of all, you clarify the historical
religionism that has gone on over in that part of the world. But also, absurdity
of an Arab kingdom in that part of the country, Israel surrounded by about 200
million Arabs, 22 Arab states, and Israel about the size of New Jersey. Yet they
can't stand the stench of Israel even with the little 8,000 square miles she
occupies over there. That is why they are being trained to be barbarians, as you
point out very graphically, to annihilate her. Even in this road map that is the
ultimate conclusion or the ultimate wish, the ultimate destination of the road
map is the destruction, the total destruction of Israel.
Caryl: Yes, in fact I take quotes from the
Palestinian leader Yassar Arafat to show that peace for them means the
destruction of Israel. I mean, this road map for peace does not in any way
assure the Jews living in Israel any type of peace from terrorist bombers. In
fact, at the end of the video The New Barbarians, Training Children to Kill, we
heard a young 14-year-old boy, Mohammad, talking about how he wanted to be a
martyr for the homeland, and how he would happily strap himself with explosives,
and how they will continue to. Here we had a teacher saying how they will
continue to teach these children to be martyrs as long as Israelis live in
Israel. I tried to show the viewer why this little country was given to the
Jews, and we saw their plight in the II World War where no country would harbor
them from the absolute barbaric efforts of Hitler who put them into
concentration camps, herded them into incineration ovens, and dumped their
skeletal bodies into massive graves. Here were these people trying to just have
some kind of refuge in a little country, which at last the United Nations gave
them in 1948, and yet here 50 years later the Arabs will still not accept the
fact that here is a race of people that have lived here for thousands of years
and are entitled to this piece of land. You know, they will not be given any
kind of acceptance, which is just incredible, and the world's opinion seems to
be influenced by pro-Arab, pro-Palestinian media. The Jews are always made to be
rogues and terrorists, when one only has to look at the mitts surrounding the
publicity. For instance, the terrorism that the victims of this conflict, the
Palestinian terrorist not only detonate themselves in public places like
pizzerias and nursery schools, they also use Palestinian children as human
shields.
Jan:
That's right.
David:
Caryl, you know, I think what is
interesting about this issue is that it is not very difficult. I think you can
use this as a kind of a baseline way to find out what side of the issue to be
on. You can see what the massive world opinion is, whose side they are on, whose
side the U.N. is on, whose side the liberal secular side of our society is on.
They pretty much support, or even the liberal college professors and a lot of
the students are always, even some secular Jews surprisingly can often be on the
side of the Palestinian cause. And, I think that is a good way for Christians to
understand that's probably not the right side to be on on this issue. But, my
question for you is that Israel originally came back into the land in 1948 as a
result of a U.N. declaration. When you play by U.N. declarations like that one,
does that kind of hinder you in the future, having to be under the authority of
the U.N. for future things that happen? Or, is it better just to go and try to
survive on your own?
Caryl:
Um…
I didn't quite understand your
question David.
David:
Well, I'm basically saying if Israel
tries to use the argument of, well the U.N. gave us this land therefore it's our
land. In the future, now let's say we have different U.N. declarations that the
U.N. says well there has to be a two-state Palestinian state/Israeli state, are
you getting caught in a trap of putting yourself under the authority of the
U.N.? In other words, like when George Bush wanted to invade Iraq, and liberate
Iraq, he tried to go through the U.N., but if he had done that he would be under
the authority of the U.N. for future decisions concerning Iraq. Is Israel doing
the same thing do you think?
Caryl:
I see what your saying, and I think
that Israel is caught in a horrendous situation. They're damned if they do and
they're damned if they don't. I think the point I was trying to make was that
world opinion was really behind giving the Jews their own land and the United
Nations in a sense accommodated, if you will, world opinion by giving them the
British mandated land already called Palestine. However, we saw that when the
ink was hardly dry, the signatures were hardly dry, when six Arab nations went
to war not agreeing with the U.N. accommodations of giving these people their
own small piece of land. So, yes I see exactly what you are saying, and I think
Israel is trying so hard to please world opinion or leaders that will give them
any kind of support, which of course at the moment is only America. The
extraordinary thing about this is that America also supports the Palestinians.
So, there is such confusion and such an ambiguous situation here with America
telling Israel that they support them, then also being behind the enemies that
insight hatred towards the Jews.
David:
Yeah Caryl, I think one other
interesting point related to the U.N. and instigating Israel back in 1948, was
that Israel only has, and you said this in your video, only 15 percent of what
the U.N. originally gave them back in 1948, which is incredible to me.
Caryl:
It is, and here we see them giving away
more with the road map to peace. You know, bit by bit by bit the Arabs chomping
in and what is the end result? Well, fortunately, the Bible believing Christians
who believe in the Book, they will see that Jerusalem is going to be the
trembling of their last days. The issue, as I have brought out in the film The
New Barbarians is over the ownership of Jerusalem, and here we have Mt. Zion,
which is the place and position of God on earth, and yet we have the god of the
Muslims who hates the Jews, setting up their Dome of the Rock. Yet, we have the
Rock Himself with His position there. It is very interesting to see the three
major religions of the World, and the Christians of course, whose Messiah, the
Messiah of the Christians was killed on the very mount there where the Muslim's
rock, The Dome of the Rock, is worshipped. And in fact, the young children are
told to spill their blood for The Dome of the Rock.
Jan:
We're talking, if you've just joined us
this morning, and we, by the way, start at 9 a.m. now, 9 to 11 a.m. on Saturday,
repeat it Sunday 12 noon to 2. We are talking with Caryl Matrisciana, the past
21 years Creative Director at Jeremiah Films, contributed research expertise and
helped produce more than 30 journalist documentaries. I think one of the most
powerful ones is the one that we are talking about this morning, The New
Barbarians, Training Children to Kill. Caryl, let me ask you this. First of all,
let's give that number again where folks can call and order the video.
Caryl:
Well they can go onto my website……
Jan:
Yes, let's give that as well.
Caryl:
……which is very easy. My name is a
little complicated to spell, but it is C-A-R-Y-L TV.com (Caryltv.com) and they
can order it through the web page or they can go to the toll free number which
is 1-800-897-5080.
Jan:
One more time.
Caryl:
1-800-897-5080, which is 5-0-8-0 or go
to Caryltv.com.
Jan:
Alright, I want to raise another issue
that you raise. Bye the way Caryl, I think because you and I met in February,
you know that the material that you are dealing with here I am quite familiar
with. I am trying to bring out some of the highlights that I feel folks need to
know the most. One of the things that I was very happy to see you bring out in
the film, is that it is even now young girls that are getting inspired to become
martyrs. One tends to think of martyrdom and vitriolic hate as coming from
males, male suicide bombers, homicide bombers, but the hate is intense coming
from women. I noticed in the Jerusalem Post this week, that Islamic leaders have
now issued a fatwa that women can and should now carry out some of these suicide
bombings.
Caryl:
Unbelievable isn't it? As you saw in
the film, they were such young children. It was…..
Jan:
Exactly.
Caryl:
….and you know the brainwashing and
indoctrination begins through children's cartoons on children's television and
children's programming. How many of us know as Mums that we place our children
in front of television when we are fixing the evening meal or whatever. And here
were these very, very graphic, very violent little children's cartoons showing
children that they needed to pick up rocks and kill the Jews for the sake of the
Dome of the Rock, and to have peace and to have martyrdom. These young children
being taught that martyrdom was the way to go and that would please the god of
Islam.
David:
Now Caryl, the men, the young boys
actually, that blow themselves up are promised 70 virgins in heaven. So it is
really a motivation of lust for them. What is it for the young girls?
Caryl:
Well, I think it's still the spiritual
call of heaven. I mean, yes, that is a very good question, what happens to the
young girls? I don't know what on earth are they promised, except that their
parents, of course, are promised thousands and thousands of dollars if they help
their children learn how to detonate themselves. I think one of the things is
just to see how women and young girls are treated in these Arab lands, is just
something that I wonder, why the United Nations and people who are out for
children's rights aren't in arms over the way these young children are treated.
I don't know if you remember in 2002 where 15 Saudi teenage girls died. They
were trapped in a burning building because the Muslim authorities would not let
them out due to the fact that they did not have the proper head covering and the
Muslim headgear to be seen in public. You know, Saudi women take beatings, and
they are arrested if they expose their ankles or faces. If you looked at those
little children that were yelling, that had guns put in their hands, they were
covered in the Muslim gear and they were yelling, "Give us a gun, give us
children a gun, give us boys and girls guns so that we will kill the Jews and
not even have one Jew in Israel." You know, these Saudi, in Jordan in fact, male
family members can legally murder women suspected of even having been raped or
promiscuity in order to preserve the honor of the family. These are called honor
killings. We hear that in Palestinian, you know and actually within Israel and
the so-called Palestinian lands there, they estimate that up to 70 percent of
all murders in Gaza and the West Bank may be honor killings. Young girls killed
because they are raped.
Jan:
Caryl, when we come back I want to ask
you this, I want to ask you, and you can think about it for a couple of minutes
here, If you think some of this suicide bombing, etcetera, could be coming to
America. I know the entire New York Police Department thinks that. They have
sent a crew over there to learn how to handle it. I'd like to ask you that when
we come back from a very short time out. You always get Prophetic Views Behind
the News. David Wheaton sitting in with me this morning and we are on every
Saturday 9 am to 11 am, and Sundays 12 to 2 on AM 980 KKMS. We'll be back very
shortly, please stick with us please.
Jan:
Alright we're back. That was the shortest
break in radio history, right David?
David:
It was.
Jan:
Okay, Jan Markell here, Olive Tree
Ministries. David Wheaton on the other side of the studio table with me. On the
line with me is Caryl Matrisciana who is a film maker, 21 years Caryl was the
Creative Director at Jeremiah Films and contributed to the research expertise
and helped produce more than 30 journalistic documentaries. I have seen, by the
way, probably half of those 30 and they are absolutely awesome. Caryl, want to
go back, by the way, we will probably open the phones up at the bottom of the
hour here if you have some questions for Caryl as to the topics we're talking
about here. You can jot down the number now, which is 651-681-8255,
651-681-talk, or out of state 1-888-332-5169. We'll do that right at 10:30, open
those lines. Caryl, I am told, actually I read it in many sources, that the New
York Police Department has gone to Israel to learn how to deal with these
suicide homicides bombings, because they sense that that is coming to America.
What is your sense on that?
Caryl:
Well, I think just understanding the
history of Islam and the resurgence of Islam and certainly fundamentalist jihad,
just looking at the resurgence world wide, and especially since the birth of
Israel in 1948,
we have seen a tremendous growth of hatred
towards the presence of the Jews in the middle East. Suicide bombing has not
stopped, this homicide and genocide bombing has become more and more barbaric.
There are schools training young children how to blow themselves up, and we see
that coming over here, which was what September 11th was all about. Youth, young
men, who were prepared to commit suicide, learn how to fly these enormous great
planes, and fly into the World Trade Center, the financial capital of the world,
for spiritual prizes in their belief system. These young children that were
interviewed in The New Barbarians said that they would be happy to be martyred
for the homeland. And then, if you remember, one of the film clips was the young
American Muslims that were in a summer camp in mid America….
Jan:
Exactly.
Caryl:
….where they were chanting the
terrorist slogans and chants. One young boy came towards the camera and said,
"Butcher the Jews." Now that was an incredible statement on American soil by a
young American Muslim in this country. Then you saw the religious leaders going
around the country telling these adults to kill Americans in this country, and
if that meant blowing them up, cutting their hands off, making widows, they had
to do it. Just as they had to fast within the Islam faith even in America, so we
heard their leaders say they had to commit jihad, in other words holy war, in
order to make their statement, which is to get rid of Israel. That is the
purpose of these jihad bombings.
Jan:
Going back to David Wheaton's question on
the women who are now blowing themselves up and what's in it for them, not the
sensual pleasures that is with the men, I think that in Islam, I believe, the
only assurance of heaven is jihad. I'm wondering if that isn't perhaps spurring
some of these women to do this now.
Caryl:
Jan, that is a very, very good point.
The assurance of paradise, of Muslim paradise, is through jihad and we did hear
in the film, The New Barbarian, Training Children to Kill, that is what Yassar
Arafat says, "jihad! jihad! jihad!" and he commends a young teenager who blew up
other teenagers in a nightclub in Telaviv. He said that through his act of jihad
he would be ensured of paradise. So, yes, obviously the women who have no rights
within Islam, you know, we hear absolutely horrible stories of young girls in
Egypt, Oman, Yemen, and the United Arab Emirates who endure genital mutilation
between the ages of 4 and 9. This is the kind of horrible behavior to young
girls, and I can quite understand them wanting the assurance of some kind of
paradise after life through this barbaric act of martyrdom, suicide, homicide
bombings. It's horrible, it's absolutely the most horrible indoctrination of
children, and we should be up in arms about this in America.
Jan:
Yes we should.
David:
Now Caryl, we have talked a lot about
the problems going on, and the symptoms of the problem, and everything to do
with how horrific this whole situation is. Now let me ask you the difficult
question here now Caryl. What in your opinion is the solution to this age-old,
what I like to call, genetic hatred conflict between the Jews, well it's really
one-sided, it's between the Palestinians or Arabs to the Jews? What is the
solution? How can this be solved if you had your wand and said that this will be
the way that Israel should go? What would you recommend?
Jan:
Could I broaden that David just a little
bit?
Caryl:
David and Jan, what are you doing to me
(laughing)?
Jan:
You are on the hot seat Caryl. I sit here
every Saturday. You know that question could actually be expanded and I would
like to expand it. I am wondering, if you don't mind David if I expand your
question.
David:
Go ahead.
Jan:
You know Caryl I wonder how just the
whole hatred we see in radical Islam, folks please notice that I am saying
radical Islam, how that is every going to come under control? Because, look, in
another 15 years these kids that you've got on your video are going to be
adults, and they are going to probably be the new 9-11 heroes of the Islamic
world. Is antichrist the only one to solve the problem?
Caryl:
Well, one looks at history David, if I
may just go to what both of you are saying, and look at the terrifying results
of history where young children were trained by Hitler, the Brown Shirts, who
became the SS officers of the II World War. Of course, I said that back to
front, Hitler trained his children in the II World War, but the young children
who were in the first World War as Brown Shirts, were the ones that became
Hitler's cohorts and SS officers for the second World War. So we saw a pagan
generation of children indoctrinated towards the new world order and how awful,
how awful, their behavior was towards the annihilation of the Jews during the II
World War. We see that same spirit of annihilation and hatred towards the Jews,
which we see thousands of years earlier in the story in the book of Esther,
where the Jews were also to be annihilated. Of course we see King Herod at the
birth of Jesus doing the same thing in killing children under two years old who
were Jews, so that his position wouldn't be taken over by who he believed would
be the King of Israel. So, this is a spiritual battle that we have seen repeat
itself in history….
Jan:
Yes, yes.
Caryl:
…..and one has to ask the question,
"Why have the Jews been persecuted for thousands and thousands of years?" The
answer, I believe, lies in a spiritual answer, that is, they are God's chosen
people and the god of this world, Satan and his minions, absolutely thrive on
hurting God and brining displeasure to God through the annihilation of His
people. We know today more than any other time in the history of the world, that
Christians and Jews are being killed in the thousands.
Jan:
Probably millions when you…..
Caryl:
Millions! Hundred of thousands I should
say, daily.
Jan:
Yeah daily, right. You know, let me just
pick up on a little bit more of what you said and David's question as well. By
the way, if you are just joining us folks, we are talking to Caryl Matrisciana
this morning, and I have as a co host this morning in the studio with me, David
Wheaton. Let me just pick up a little bit more on this because we just had a
conference here in town, my ministry did, where we brought in Chuck Missler and
a number of other folks. Chuck has an interesting teaching that the antichrist
could actually be an Arab or a Muslim. He believes he could be a Syrian, and
that perhaps somebody like an antichrist who has an Arab heritage, a Syrian
heritage, perhaps even Islamic heritage, could in fact put, somehow
supernaturally, and end to some of this violence. Of course by then we would be
in the tribulation probably.
Caryl:
Well, I respect Chuck and I think he is
a very learned scholar and has some very, very interesting views, and that is
certainly a potential possibility.
Jan:
Well I mean, the question is, you know,
how do we stop all of this? I mean, I give credit to President Bush. He said
this is a battle that will take a lifetime. There are some presidents who would
come out, probably the last one, who would come out and say look we are going to
take care of this, don't worry about it, it's going to be over in a few months.
President Bush is very honest about the fact that this is a life-long problem.
However long life-long means, we actually don't know, but I do give him credit
for being honest about it. Okay folks, if you would like to join in on the
discussion we will open the phone at 651-681-8255. 651-681-t-a-l-k or, out of
state, 1-888-332-5169. David you wanted to make a comment.
David: I still want to hear the Caryl Matrisciana
road map though.
Jan:
The road map?
David:
I want to hear her road map.
Caryl:
David…
Jan:
Could we do it on the other side of the
break because we have lines filling up here too Caryl? We need to take our
bottom of the hour break.
Caryl:
Thank goodness for breaks.
Jan:
Thank goodness for breaks. This is our
short one people. If you are running into Home Depot, hurry up because this is a
real quick break. And when we come back we will get to your phone calls with one
line open at 651-681-t-a-l-k. This is Prophetic Views Behind the News brought to

your cars. This is Prophetic Views Behind the News heard Saturday 9 a.m. to 11
live, with a repeat of it on Sundays from 12 noon to 2 p.m. Let me make just a
couple of quick comments here, then we will get back to our guest Caryl
Matrisciana. John from St. Paul hold on. Bruce in Deephaven hold on. Then we do
have a line open at 651-681-8255. I just want to remind you we had our most

are going back to, we still have a line open, and we are going to get to the
other callers here momentarily. David you wanted to pick up where we had left
off.
David:
Well, I'm not trying to belabor the
point, but I wanted to see, in an ideal world, how Caryl would solve this.
Caryl, would it be a military action, as far as Israel literally driving the
Palestinians out of the land and protecting their own borders? We have kind of
this new philosophy in warfare that started in the last 30 years, that when a
country gets involved in military conflicts, land by international law is not
allowed to be occupied. That is a big misnomer in this whole case, in that they
call the Palestinian territory, the occupied territories. Well really it belongs
to Israel, the won it in the 1967 Six-Day War. It's their land. It's not
occupied, it's theirs. But the international community does not acknowledge
that. What would be your solution, even if it is one that is distasteful to the
world, what would be your ideal solution here?
Caryl:
Well, I think that Israel must be given
the right to defend herself. I mean, what would American's do in the same
situation in this country if they were not allowed to defend themselves in the
same sort of situation? I think it is an absolutely immoral situation that
Israel finds herself in. You know, it's horrible.
Jan:
Well, I think that some have suggested
that the Palestinians, at least those that are the troublemakers, I don't think
Israel has any problem with the Palestinians who want to live with them, some
are even called Israeli Arabs, they serve in the Kenesett, they have greater
rights and freedoms than in any other region in the Middle East. Israel has no
problem with them, but I think that there has been the suggestion that these
that are trouble makers be shipped off to another country.
Caryl:
Well the difficulty, of course, is that
here we're training new generations to be the troublemakers. How can you,
there's absolutely no way to halt the suicide bombers who attempt to infiltrate
Israel on a daily basis. How are we going to do the same in this country? It's
an attitude, it's a mindset. These people in the Middle East have dressed as
pregnant women.
Jan:
Right.
Caryl:
They have hidden in ambulances. They've
smuggled arms in specially exempt vehicles. It is absolutely horrible what these
attitudes have done, and yet Israel, you know, isn't allowed to defend herself
in this situation. It's absolutely extraordinary.
Jan:
If you have just joined us, we are
talking this morning with Christian filmmaker Caryl Matrisciana. Her new film is
The New Barbarians, Training Children to Kill, which both my co host David
Wheaton and I have viewed of course. Caryl has made about 30 movies, or videos,
films on cultural issues and new age, occult. I have seen almost all of them. I
think Marty stepped out, so folks, you who are calling in, would you just let
that line ring. Marty disappeared, he's doing a lot of things on Saturday
morning.
David:
He is a one-man show.
Jan:
Yeah, he is a one-man show. So please be
patient when you are calling in, just let the phone ring, even if it has to ring
20 times. He will get to it eventually. Go ahead John in St. Paul, do you have a
question for Caryl?
John:
Hi Jan.
Jan:
Hi John.
John:
Hi Caryl. Hi David.
David:
Hi.
Caryl:
Hi John.
John:
Hello.
Jan:
Go ahead.
John:
Okay good. Just a quick comment on the
first half of your show. I think looking back at the last attempt at bringing a
resolution to the Palestinian/Israeli situation, we had a storm called the
"Perfect Storm" in Hurricane Andrew. Prior to that, Secretary of State, James
Baker advised then President Bush not to support loan guarantees for Israel, the
only nation on the earth that pays its debts, and his house was struck by
lightening at that same time. So I think it will be interesting in the coming
days here to see what the effects might be in that regard. But, beyond that,
reading from Don Richardson's book, and he said that there may be as many as 40
million trainees in these so-called schools that he describes, or rather, the
article he quotes from Readers Digest describes as "jihad factories." And in
Indonesia alone there are over 37,362 of these Madrasas, and that far exceeds
the total number of all of our educational institutions, universities, colleges,
right on down to elementary schools. There is about 24,000 in this country. In
Pakistan there are 1 million Muslim students in these "jihad factories" and over
10,000 Madrasas. So, that is just a small portion, a little glimpse, of how
monumental this militant move is potentially. I guess the only thing I can say
in regards to David's question is that we can liberate Iraq, but democracy has
failed to change the heart of the Muslims. What we need to do is what Jesus did,
liberate us, what he did with every one of us, Muslims one soul at a time and
pray for them.
Jan: You raise a good point John, and by the way,
thank you for your call.
John:
You're very welcome.
Jan:
I want to build upon what John just said.
By the way, Marty is back in the studio, so whoever was trying to call and
couldn't get through, he's back in the control room at 651-681-8255. I think the
thing that we need to be mindful of is now is the time for Arab evangelism and
Muslim evangelism, and perhaps that is the only solution to the problem of
conflict, any kind of conflict, is coming to a knowledge of the saving grace of
our Lord, Jesus Christ. Let's go to Bruce in Deephaven, go ahead Bruce.
Bruce:
Yes, thanks for taking my call. I would
like to pose maybe a question sort of down the middle of the road between the
extremes here. I think as Christians, as the last caller has said, and you had
said, that Christians can pray, and we can bring the gospel to these people. We
do know from God's Word that Israel will exist and that they are not going to go
away. I guess my question is more along this line, what should our government do
at this present time? We are planning this getting together with the leaders
over there, and is that something that we really should be doing at all? Or
should we just let Israel have their right to defend and let them go their own
way, and just support them and let Israelis go at it, whatever happens?
Jan:
Yeah well, I think you outlined it well
there Bruce, and your point too, but let's let Caryl respond to your question
too.
Caryl:
Well, yes, I mean, I think that our
government is doing an awful lot. I think they have been well aware of the
situation, as we see through Steve Emerson's film which was made in 1994, where
they were well aware of militant jihadists, these people that were speaking in
states all around the states, and cities and towns, encouraging Muslims to be
involved in jihad in America. Our government has been well aware of terrorism. I
think they are doing an excellent job in many, many ways. But, your question
Bruce was deeper in the sense that should we allow Israel to defend herself and
have at it and support her. You know, I think there is a lot to be said for
that. Israel's hands appear to be so tied, they are trying to please so many
people. Of course, the psychological and political costs of the suicide bombs
that they have on a daily basis, 9-11 happens to them on a daily basis, so the
psychological and political costs of this, I mean, just must be horrendous on
Israelis living in Israel.
David: I mean, I can't imagine living in a
society where you can't step on a bus or go to a public place, and really have
that in the back of your mind that you might be blown to bits at any particular
time. It just must be horrific to live in that environment.
Caryl:
I have been to Israel 14 times. It is
one of my most favorite places in the world after America, because it does have
such freedom and such democracy. I have watched those people who love their
family. I think it is the safest country in the world, in the sense of their
police, the military police. The soldiers are so aware of this incredible
danger, it is constantly there, and yet they seem to be so relaxed, and allow
people to attempt to live in a somewhat normal situation. But, they are on alert
as they protect the people every second. I think they are just the most amazing
people in the world with the hardships they have to put up with.
Jan:
I have to agree. I've been there numerous
times myself. We have a line open at 651-681-8255, or out of state
1-888-332-5169. I still have some questions, as I think David does too. Let's
quickly go to Kevin in Moundsview, go ahead Kevin you are on the air.
Kevin:
Hi folks. I heard David, he picked up,
I should say, on the year 1967 when he stated that Israel won that land. You
have to understand, they didn't win anything, that was theirs to start with.
David:
That's right.
Jan:
That's right.
Kevin:
The inception in 1948. Now here's who
occupied the territory, as I'm sure you folks know, Jordan. They came in and
occupied that land and stole it for nineteen years. This is really distressing,
I could take a camera crew out on the street, or on the sidewalks of any high
school in this country, in any state, or any private run college or university,
and they have no idea of that. You know, the term settlements now, this is
tremendous, you know like Joseph Gergel said, "You tell a big enough lie often
enough, over and over and over, and people will just believe it." They won't go
out and check the facts. That is what is so distressing. We at least need to arm
ourselves with the facts and truth about this, but having said that, our only
hope is because we know that mankind cannot bring a lasting peace. We know who
won't be involved in the end times trouble for that area. The only thing we can
do is to set out hope on the return of Jesus Christ, that is our only hope.
Jan:
You know that's the way I close every
program Kevin.
Kevin:
Well, God bless you Jan.
Jan:
Thank you for calling.
Kevin:
You bet.
Jan:
That's also why…
David:
Kevin said it well.
Jan:
We just cut off Caryl.
David:
Oh, did we. I'm sorry.
Jan:
Marty can you give Caryl another call
please. She was on line 4. I didn't do it folks, I am the
technologically-challenged one here. David pushed the button. David that is a
great debut you just made.
David:
Hey, anytime you want me to cut-off one
of your guests, just bring me on the show. I was trying to let Kevin go without
the click and I pushed the wrong button. I'm sure we'll get Caryl right back on
the line. But, I do think Kevin brings up a great point, the only solution here
is the return of Christ. This conflict has been going on since history way, way
back. Okay, I mean it has been for thousands of years, and to think that
anything is going to solve it very quickly is hoping beyond hope.
Caryl?
Caryl:
Yes sir.
David:
Very sorry about that. I did it, I did
it, I admit it.
Jan:
That's another reason why you folks need
this video, The New Barbarians, Training Children to Kill, because of the
background information that she has in here. I mean, it's just really an
education. And as our previous caller was saying, the lack of understanding of
these issues is so overwhelming. It is a real education film. We do have time
for a couple more calls if you would like to call in at 651-681-8255. Caryl I
noticed a story this week that broke in the last couple of days actually, that
the European Union, which is the birthplace of many great Christian
denominations, is dropping all references to God to placate Muslims and Pagans
in Europe. It seems much more of the world is sinking into more and more
darkness. I mean kicking God out, Islamic Paganism getting more and more
prominent. I don't know, some of this may have to do with political correctness,
and others with the evil of our day. Did you notice this story?
Caryl:
Yes I did and I think what we are
seeing is a secularization of the globe.
Jan:
Yes.
Caryl:
It is very interesting that while
Muslims are becoming, at least the jihad movement, certainly the, what does one
call it? The fundamental Islam or the terrorist branch Islam, whatever one wants
to call the jihad movement, but we see that they are becoming more and more
religious, more and more embedded in having to do stuff to please Allah. And
yet, they want God out of the schools. It doesn't make sense. Because God, for
them, for the Muslims, the Muslim god, is such an integral part of their very
being, that what they are actually saying is that they want everybody to
recognize their god as the only god.
Jan:
Alright. Go ahead John in Minatonka, what
is your comment or question?
John:
Well, I was just, a couple of comments,
I just remember that quote, I forget who it was that said it, you probably
remember Jan, but "There will be peace in Israel when the Palestinians love
their children more than they hate the Israelis."
Jan:
Yes, I believe Golda Meir may have said
that.
John:
Yeah, I think it was Golda Meir. I think
that is telling, really just the hatred is overwhelming everything, and it's not
about religion, it's about hatred. That's just one thing. Then the other
question that I've had, I've always been curious about this because in Ezekiel
38 and 39 it talks about Israel dwelling in peace and safety, and Russia coming
down on the nation without walls and dwelling securely. That hasn't happened
yet, so it is a future event?
Jan:
I believe that will be a post
tribulation, or it will be early tribulation rather when she is resting securely
and antichrist's supposed false peace.
John:
Okay.
Jan:
Yeah.
John:
Aren't things kind of shaping up for
that to happen?
Jan:
Yes.
John:
Whether it's through antichrist or some
like Arnold Fruchtenbaum have said it will be a pre tribulation, just before
tribulation, but somewhere in there Israel is going to feel peace and safety
because of the gentile nations that are protecting her.
Jan:
Well, there is only one gentile nation
protecting her and that is America. If we get a liberal administration in 2004
or 2008 they will sell Israel down the tubes in a heartbeat. John our lines are
totally filled. I do appreciate you call, it was a good call.
John:
Thank you.
Jan:
Thank you.
David:
I'll let you push the button off.
Jan:
Thank you David. Well it's good to hear
from a woman, go ahead Pat in St. Paul.
Pat:
Hi Jan.
Jan:
Hi.
Pat:
I got a letter into President Bush. How
can we dissuade him from birthing a Palestinian state that won't be voted up and
down in the Senate?
Jan:
Well, I think you certainly can contact
him through the White House e-mail and comment line and things like that, and we
certainly can pray for him, but you know what I think we need to do is pray that
certain leaders could get through to him, by that I really mean spiritual
leaders. I know he has some spiritual input from Josh McDowell and I think from
some others. David do you know of any others that are speaking into George
Bush's life?
David:
Not off the top of my head. I think
there are a couple though that he does consult with. I don't know their names.
Caryl:
I would also encourage your listeners
to go to an absolutely fabulous website called Stand With Us. That gives some
really, really incredible information, It's an Israeli organization, and they
give some absolutely fabulous links to usisrael.org and others,
www.palestinianfacts.org. It really helps you compile some good letters with
educated facts and information to the President and those in political power, to
show them your views and opinions. I think it is very, very valuable for us to
keep pressure on our political leaders in this situation.
Jan:
Yeah, I think that's true, keep the
pressure on. Thanks Pat for calling.
Pat:
Your welcome.
Caryl:
We are running just a little short on
time here, but I wanted to ask you, or make a comment here, we have the demise
of Saddam Hussein, actually he was providing about 30 million dollars in
benefits to suicide bombing families. I am wondering if that might have an
impact, his demise, might have an impact on lowering some of the terror level,
and frankly, lowering some of the terror threat in America as well?
Caryl:
Jan, I wish I could believe in that. I
think that it has gone too far, the fire is ignited in the hearts of the
children who truly believe that for Mohammad's sake, for Allah's sake, that they
need to be involved in making the new world order a Muslim world. They truly
believe this, so it has to be won for him, so we have these children who, as I
show in the video, being excited with such hatred. What do they do with that
hatred? One sees in that video the way that these, someone's crime is being
Jewish, and he is stoned, and if the police hadn't come by he would have perhaps
been killed. Then we see the killing of young Israeli soldiers, and the stoning
of young Israeli soldiers by absolutely violence-motivated Arab students.
Jan:
Caryl, don't you think this is a lot of
demonization going on, and I do need a short answer?
Caryl:
Yes.
David:
Everyone listening needs to see this
video, this will give you much clarity on the Middle East, the whole situation
over there.
1-800-897-5080. I would definitely recommend this video
highly.
Jan:
And the website Caryl?
Caryl;
Is caryltv.com. C-a-r-y-l-t-v-.com.
Jan:
I appreciate you giving up your Saturday
morning to help us out. I promise you I will promote this video, and I'll
probably show it to my ministry here this summer.
Caryl:
Thank you so much Jan, and David thank
you so much for your recommendation. Thank you both for a wonderful, wonderful
show.
Jan:
Alright, God bless you.
