Prevoditelj: Romana Perković Recezent: Janko Mihelić

Today, I want you to look at

Danas, želim da pogledate

children who become suicide bombers

djecu koja postaju bombaši samoubojice

through a completely different lens.

kroz potpuno drugačiji objektiv.

In 2009, there were 500

U 2009. bilo je oko 500

bomb blasts across Pakistan.

eksplozija bombi širom Pakistana.

I spent the year working

Provela sam godinu radeći

with children

sa djecom

who were training to become suicide bombers

koja su obučavana kako bi postali bombaši samoubojice,

and with Taliban recruiters,

a i sa Talibanskim regruterima,

trying to understand how the Taliban

pokušavajući shvatiti kako Talibani

were converting these children

pretvaraju tu djecu

into live ammunition

u živo streljivo

and why these children were actively

i zašto su se ta djeca aktivno

signing up to their cause.

prijavljivala za njihovu misiju.

I want you to watch a short video

Želim da pogledate kratak video

from my latest documentary film, "Children of the Taliban."

iz mog posljednjeg dokumentarca, "Djeca Talibana."

(Singing)

(Pjesma)

The Taliban now run their own schools.

Talibani sada vode svoje škole.

They target poor families

Oni ciljaju siromašne obitelji

and convince the parents to send their children.

i uvjeravaju roditelje da pošalju svoju djecu.

In return, they provide free food and shelter

U zamjenu, oni osiguraju besplatnu hranu i utočište

and sometimes pay the families a monthly stipend.

i nekad daju obiteljima mjesečnu stipendiju.

We've obtained a propaganda video

Dobili smo propagandni video

made by the Taliban.

koji su napravili Talibani.

Young boys are taught justifications

Mlade dečke uče opravdanjima

for suicide attacks

samoubilačkih napada

and the execution of spies.

i pogubljenja špijuna.

I made contact with a child from Swat

Uspostavila sam kontakt sa djetetom iz Swata

who studied in a madrassa like this.

koje je učilo u školi poput ove.

Hazrat Ali is from a

Hazrat Ali dolazi iz

poor farming family in Swat.

siromašne seoske obitelji iz Swata.

He joined the Taliban a year ago

Pridružio se Talibanima prije godinu dana,

when he was 13.

kada je imao 13 godina.

How do the Taliban in your area get people to join them?

Kako Talibani u tvom područuju regrutiraju ljude?

Hazrat Ali: They first call us to the mosque and preach to us.

Hazrat Ali: Prvo nas pozovu u džamiju i propovijedaju nam.

Then they take us to a madrassa

Zatim nas odvedu u školu

and teach us things from the Koran.

i uče nas stvarima iz Kurana.

Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy: He tells me that children

Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy: Rekao mi je kako djeca

are then given months of military training.

zatim prođu kroz višemjesečnu vojnu obuku.

HA: They teach us to use machine guns, Kalashnikov,

HA: Uče nas kako koristiti strojnice, Kalašnjikov,

rocket launchers, grenades, bombs.

raketne bacače, granate, bombe.

They ask us to use them only against the infidels.

Govore nam da ih upotrebljavamo samo protiv nevjernika.

Then they teach us to do a suicide attack.

Onda nas uče kako izvršili samoubilački napad.

SOC: Would you like to carry out a suicide attack?

SOC: Bi li volio izvršiti samoubilački napad?

HA: If God gives me strength.

HA: Ako mi Bog da snage.

SOC: I, in my research,

SOC: U mom istraživanju,

have seen that the Taliban have perfected

vidjela sam da su Talibani usavršili

the way in which they recruit

način na koji regrutiraju

and train children,

i obučavaju djecu.

and I think it's a five-step process.

Mislim da je to proces od pet koraka.

Step one is that the Taliban prey

Prvi korak je u kojem Talibani ciljaju

on families that are large, that are poor,

na obitelji koje su velike, siromašne

that live in rural areas.

i žive u ruralnim područjima.

They separate the parents from the children

Razdvoje roditelje od djece

by promising to provide food, clothing,

obećavajući kako će djeci osigurati hranu,

shelter to these children.

odjeću, smještaj.

Then they ship them off, hundreds of miles away

Odvode ih stotinama kilometara daleko,

to hard-line schools

u stroge škole

that run along the Taliban agenda.

koje rade po dnevnom redu Talibana.

Step two:

Drugi korak:

They teach the children the Koran, which is Islam's holiest book,

Uče djecu Kuran, koji je islamska sveta knjiga,

in Arabic, a language these children do not understand

na arapskom, jezik koji ta djeca ne razumiju

and cannot speak.

i ne govore.

They rely very heavily on teachers,

Oslanjaju se na učitelje

who I have personally seen

koje sam osobno vidjela

distort the message to these children

kako izvrću poruku ovoj djeci

as and when it suits their purpose to.

kada i kako to odgovara njihovoj svrsi.

These children are explicitly forbidden

Djeci je izričito zabranjeno

from reading newspapers, listening to radio,

čitati novine, slušati radio,

reading any books

čitati bilo koju knjigu

that the teachers do not prescribe them.

koju im učitelji nisu preporučili.

If any child is found violating these rules,

Ako je koje dijete uhvaćeno kako krši neko pravilo,

he is severely reprimanded.

strogo je prekoreno.

Effectively, the Taliban create

Talibani učinkovito

a complete blackout

blokiraju

of any other source of information for these children.

bilo koji drugi izvor informacija za ovu djecu.

Step three: The Taliban want these children

Treći korak: Talibani žele da ova djeca

to hate the world that they currently live in.

mrze svijet u kojem trenutno žive.

So they beat these children --

Zato tuku tu djecu.

I have seen it;

Vidjela sam to.

they feed them twice a day dried bread and water;

Hrane ih dvaput na dan sa suhim kruhom i vodom.

they rarely allow them to play games;

Rijetko im dozvoljavaju igrati igre.

they tell them that, for eight hours at a time,

Govore im, osam sati u nizu,

all they have to do is read the Koran.

kako sve što trebaju jest čitati Kuran.

The children are virtual prisoners;

Djeca su virtualni zatvorenici.

they cannot leave, they cannot go home.

Ne mogu otići kući.

Their parents are so poor,

Roditelji su im siromašni,

they have no resources to get them back.

nemaju načina vratiti ih kući.

Step four: The older members of the Taliban,

Četvrti korak: Stariji pripadnici Talibana,

the fighters,

borci,

start talking to the younger boys

govore mladim dečkima

about the glories of martyrdom.

o slavi mučeništva.

They talk to them about how when they die,

Govore im o tome kako će kad umru,

they will be received up

biti primljeni gore

with lakes of honey and milk,

sa jezerima meda i mlijeka,

how there will be 72 virgins

kako će ih čekati 72 djevice

waiting for them in paradise,

u raju,

how there will be unlimited food,

kako će tamo biti neograničeno hrane

and how this glory

i kako će ih ova slava

is going to propel them to become

učiniti herojima

heroes in their neighborhoods.

u svom kraju.

Effectively, this is the brainwashing process

Tako je zapravo počeo proces

that has begun.

ispiranja mozga.

Step five: I believe the Taliban have

Peti korak: Vjerujem kako Talibani imaju

one of the most effective

jedno od najučinkovitijih sredstava

means of propaganda.

propagande.

Their videos that they use

Video snimci koje koriste

are intercut with photographs

ispresječeni su fotografijama

of men and women and children

muškaraca i žena i djece

dying in Iraq and Afghanistan

koji umiru u Iraku, Afganistanu

and in Pakistan.

i Pakistanu.

And the basic message is that the Western powers

Osnovna poruka je kako zapadne snage

do not care about civilian deaths,

ne brinu o smrti civila,

so those people who live

pa su ljudi koji žive

in areas and support governments

na području i podržavaju vlade

that work with Western powers are fair game.

koje rade sa zapadnim silama fer mete.

That's why Pakistani civilians,

Zato su pakistanski civili,

over 6,000 of whom have been killed in the last two years alone,

preko 6000 onih koji su ubijeni u posljednje dvije godine,

are fair game.

fer žrtve.

Now these children are primed

Ova djeca su pripremljena

to become suicide bombers.

kako bi postala bombaši samoubojice.

They're ready to go out and fight

Spremni su izaći i boriti se

because they've been told that this is

jer im je rečeno kako je to jedini

effectively their only way

učinkoviti način

to glorify Islam.

slavljenja Islama.

I want you to watch another excerpt from the film.

Želim da pogledate još jedan odlomak iz filma.

This boy is called Zenola.

Dečko se zove Zenola.

He blew himself up, killing six.

Raznio se, pritom ubivši šestero.

This boy is called Sadik.

Ovaj dečko se zove Sadik.

He killed 22.

On je ubio 22.

This boy is called Messoud.

Ovaj dečko se zove Messoud.

He killed 28.

Ubio je 28.

The Taliban are running suicide schools,

Talibani vode samoubilačke škole,

preparing a generation of boys

pripremajući generacije dječaka

for atrocities against civilians.

za zločine protiv civilnog stanovništva.

Do you want to carry out a suicide attack?

Želiš li izvršili samoubilački napad?

Boy: I would love to.

Dječak: Volio bih to.

But only if I get permission from my dad.

Ali jedino ako dobijem dozvolu od svoga oca.

When I look at suicide bombers younger than me, or my age,

Kada pogledam bombaše samoubojice, mlađe od mene, ili mojih godina,

I get so inspired by their terrific attacks.

inspiriraju me njihovi sjajni napadi.

SOC: What blessing would you get

SOC: Kakav ćeš blagoslov dobiti

from carrying out a suicide attack?

izvođenjem samoubilačkog napada?

Boy: On the day of judgment, God will ask me,

Dječak: Na sudnji dan, Bog će me upitati,

"Why did you do that?"

"Zašto si to učinio?"

I will answer, "My Lord! Only to make you happy!

I ja ću odgovoriti, "Moj Gospode! Samo kako bih tebe usrećio!

I have laid down my life fighting the infidels."

Posvetio sam svoj život borbi protiv nevjernika."

Then God will look at my intention.

Bog će pogledati moju namjeru.

If my intention was to eradicate evil for Islam,

Ako je moja namjera bila da iskorijenim zlo iz Islama,

then I will be rewarded with paradise.

bit ću nagrađen rajem.

Singer: ♫ On the day of judgment ♫

Pjesma: ♫ Na sudnji dan ♫

♫ My God will call me ♫

♫ Moj Bog će me pozvati ♫

♫ My body will be put back together ♫

♫ Moje tijelo će se ponovo sastaviti ♫

♫ And God will ask me why I did this ♫

♫ Bog će me upitati zašto sam učinio ovo ♫

SOC: I leave you all with this thought:

SOC: Ostavit ću vas sa ovom mišlju.

If you grew up in these circumstances,

Ako odrastate u ovim uvjetima,

faced with these choices,

suočeni sa ovim izborima,

would you choose to live in this world

biste li izabrali živjeti u ovom svijetu

or in the glorious afterlife?

ili u veličanstvenom zagrobnom životu?

As one Taliban recruiter told me,

Kao što mi je jedan Taliban regruter rekao,

"There will always be sacrificial lambs in this war."

"Uvijek će biti žrtvenih janjaca u ovom ratu."

Thank you.

Hvala vam.

(Applause)
