8:30 am
at ways to set the 1972 when i 1st met freely back to and we sat down on a bench like this. and i had the 1st conversation with the man that i was to follow for for many years. and that past changed my life. the in 1976 for the better to have that. and once i got banded together with others, fighting for independence and formed, lost much of those are the king cutters. the context was
8:31 am
that vietnam had won the cuban revolution at that time was like a beacon to a lot of latin american the, the type of history is on the side of anti colonialism. we should be able to, to prevail. the one of the 1st things you have to have is fake id. so i visited a number of graveyards and picked i know someone who had died. you know, as a child wasn't likely to have the social security number or any other type of id and then applied for, for that birth certificate. and then applied for drivers license and social security number and developed a number of ideas that i then used to buy weapons with the
8:32 am
as a full time member of the organization. my routine was after i did my household obligation of taking the kids to school, i would then start working on whatever we had on the schedule. we're going to do a check off the back take dynamite from construction . people go to that. there was a strike on against the power company checking out the transmission towers to see where we're going and not one of them on the we sabotage the, the power plant at the beginning of canada. log on as a protest against the government for cutting off power to the residence of the us, which was a squatter. so the residents of the settlement called via
8:33 am
senior village without fear, had tapped into the local power lines. and now the government threatened forcible eviction. the so when they had their power cut off, so all right, well, tit for tat. the turns out that the radiators and so all we had to do was bring in some of these spray long sharp to printers. bit bit bit, you know, hit the, the radiator rains on this thing and then oil would come off. pretty simple little operation to
8:34 am
the operation took out the power in one of the most affluent areas of the island. tens of thousands of hotel guests were plunged into darkness. lost much of status leave a communique nail to a tree in san one claiming responsibility. we felt that we could generate more of a spirit of resistance rather than of submissive acceptance of reality, that we felt slight shockingly unfair. despite operating on the violent fringe of the independence movement, their actions gained visibility and lead others to resist the since 1898. the us had used as a military strong in the caribbean, eventually building dozens of lakes. in the 1940s,
8:35 am
the navy took over most of the island of military exercises. the ad room just called in and said look, we're going to be bombing on extra days. and then this fisherman said, you know, was old fishing traps straight across for the navy. ships are going to come through and our powers all get tangled and they'll be done one or the people who live here sites. they've had enough of the navy and it's shelly, and there was some, like mrs. hilda logo did very, she brought our children because she said, by setting up camp there, they would learn not to be afraid to defend their country. the protests lead to hundreds of around or but some members of last,
8:36 am
much of those feel that the protests aren't working and call for something more than civil disobedience. the in puerto rico today are united states. navy bus was ambushed by political terrorist firing, rifle, shot guns and customs. 18 on our navy technicians were going to work in the school bus on the terrace ambush, them just outside san one to were killed and 10 were wounded, including 3 women. 3 groups leave a joint communicate in a nearby phone booth claiming responsibility. one of them is low so much of those they state that the attack was in retaliation for a protest throughout vegas who was killed while in police custody. and that the actions will continue until the guest is returned to the point where he can people
8:37 am
the at the moment held in a accountable. if you kill a prisoner claim is suicide. when cleared forensic evidence showing that he had caches and bruises all over his body have to pay a price if they think they're going to drive us out of the, i guess with acts like this, they better think again people are part of it, but don't support this type of activity in the country, they reject it very, very, very, very vociferously and very strongly repudiate this type collection. and we think that think of these people, as our enemies are enemies of the people that are in the after the attack. there is internal descent within those much of that,
8:38 am
those many members choose to leave the the schedule here on the, on the lady at the mercy in here. so with that being a good point in the text though, for on the on it so as on buys, instead of any of media that i'm in, tulsa, and i leave that allows you, and i've been meet the wireless photos of your job portfolio, but i feel the kind of my, sorry that, that i took on the monster that i, you know, up in my step, my, sorry, that i decided to fight fight for my country. no, i'm not. i mean i could have done things differently. yes,
8:39 am
absolutely. do i now think that violence is not the means to achieve anything? absolutely. yeah. that's a lesson learned and life for me. the nice air national guard base was built in 1956 by the us military. the plains based there had been used to project u. s. military power throughout latin america. in 1981 doesn't much of data disguise to fishermen infiltrate the base and begin reconnaissance operations. at 1st blush, it looks like, well, can this be done? and then upon closer examination, you realize it's, it's not
8:40 am
a piece of cake, but it's, it's definitely doable. the crime rates, the state of not including really back to work. where is my position? and i said here that participating 0 and is a for years i think it was more aware than in the rest of us of how significant this was going to be in terms of historical importance. and then the final gift was one of the national guard had an open house on the way. so i, i brought my kids and look upstairs where the right of the blades, the printers in for him that helped us the scales. exactly where the, the explosives was going to be. ready before dawn, today in puerto rico terrace blew up
8:41 am
a number of air national guard jet fighters and an american base near san juan. at least 8 jet fighters were destroyed. the coursera just flew up one after the other . damage was estimated at $45000000.00. no one was hurt left, his group, which has at once the united states, out of puerto rico, is playing responsibility for the attack. air force spokesman, say this is one of the most serious attacks, never against an american military base here or in the united states. the so i didn't get back home until a couple hours later, and lucy thought that that had been killed once the plane started to blow up the they were loaded with the machine guns. so the machine the morning after the attack b s. b, i find so much it is stuck in the ground within yards of one of the air base security guards
8:42 am
a message that most much of battles were close enough to take the guard's life. but unlike the boss attacked this time, they insured that no one was hurt an internal most much of those documents celebrates the attack. we were able to revive the spirit of our people. since this was the most overwhelming blow given to the yankee since pearl harbor. our organizations for speech was greatly increased. it's made us known all around the world. i was surprised by how much tacit support there was and how many people were like, almost like secretly problem. of course you can't do it on a simple, it's a tooth is expensive and people are commenting about uh nice. okay. and the
8:43 am
word of point to he can resist and spreads beyond the island. leaders including pope john paul, the 2nd robert kennedy junior, and jesse jackson all pushed for the united states navy to leave the the in 2003. after nearly 60 years of bombing, the military caesars active operations on the island the, the russian states. never as tight as one of the most sense community best. most all sense of the in the system
8:44 am
must be the one else holes. question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin mission, the state on the russians per day and split the ortiz food next. even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube tv services for the question, did you say even closer to the oh, what i would show the wrong just don't safe house because the application and engagement equals the trail.
8:45 am
when so many find themselves will support we choose to look so common ground the on the job rally her my little story. okay. the model girl that i got you. no problem seeing it on the out of the thing. 30 minutes. yeah. side of the drive i showed my brother through he was trying to sell people for a lo so now i never looked at searches as being saved. well i guess i lost my list. that's the outcome of the police. it'd be gang chicago is like to give you a photo of the police. you lose the there's another crowd thing. another one could have been a doctor or nurse could have been the next president. we can't keep losing people
8:46 am
out here. the, the much of good us movement is nearly broke. feeling better to have that rights. we are in need of huge economical resources. and those on hand have a balance of 0. so we must expropriate resources. for the 1st robbery that i participated in, i was sure we were going to get caught and i'd seen so many tv programs in the face of others. you know that we weren't gonna get away with it. and this elderly lady came in and she started to hyper until 8 and
8:47 am
was bar ready to scream. and i'm going ma'am, come down. nothing's gonna happen or what do i do? i really didn't know how to handle the situation and then feeling where to adjust. he saw that he walked over and said shut off. what's that? what? that was the end of the okay, so that's how it's done. deal. so that was my, my trial by fire. there's a erroneous view of last much if it was that it was mostly about armed action, which is absolutely not the case. it was mostly about political action. and uh, you know, people were doing good work around women's issues, doing good work, you know, try to get the navy out of the, i guess, you know, all of that. so most of the robberies were done for fund that type of work. you know that rather than wait for proposals for grants to be approved and so
8:48 am
kind of go get our own function. the guy approached me and he says he's working on arm a truck and transports between $7.00 to $10000000.00 every monday. and he wants to donate it to the struggle is like, well it's almost too good to be true. the reach where he met so did the final vetting of him as a come back somewhere. it's not a wells fargo garden and acts, wells fargo guard is on the run with $7000000.00 in cash. he got away with the last night when he robbed his partner and a wells fargo manager in west hartford connecticut. so when,
8:49 am
when victor grabbed a supervisor from behind and put him in a headlock and took a supervisor's own gun out of his holster and put it to his head and told them, you know, i'm not working for any body else anymore. and all, i'm not playing the supervisor head, you know, heard the tone in victor's voice, so that i mean, as he testified and tries that, victor spoke to me in a tone of voice. i'd rather heard before i was waiting for him outside. it was the longest hour or whatever of my entire life. it was a $7100000.00 according to to the press. i know it weighed about a 1000 and some odd pounds. the car was riding low. we've had so much money to steal from here that they couldn't even haul it all away . police estimate that he left about a $1000000.00 behind the i felt we had pulled off
8:50 am
a great job and nobody in the car. nobody was hurt. yeah i, i was area and my friend loaned me his pickup truck and camper. we were on the turnpike in, in pennsylvania and going down this pretty steep hill. and this semi blue passed us and we ended up flipped over facing in the opposite direction on the right hand lane of the money that was hidden in the wall behind the walls of the trailer. and the panels burst. one of us jumped in the trailer and started throwing the money in bags and stashing it back before the state police arrived. and we
8:51 am
got past that one. the special agent must realize that no case on the federal bureau of investigation solved and closed with the condition of the go. they are the put a little because the f b i arrived and point to for equal half a century earlier. but rather than merely pursuing criminals agents were tasked with squelching the voices of those who were working to gain independence. soon, the mission grows with agents, compiling dossiers on over one 100000 persons of interest. generating nearly 2000000 pages of documents. agents gather details of political affiliation, employment religious practices, and sexual partners the but despite
8:52 am
massive surveillance, truly better to have that. and once they got to continue to evade the f, b i for over a decade, the year there. and i wonder if they fixed the in 1983 just much if they don't use funds from the wells fargo robbery to purchase a shoulder mounted rocket launcher. their plan is to attack the f b. i offices in san one. the, instead of hitting the f b, i offices the mess, damaging the department of agriculture being directly fired on invigorates the f,
8:53 am
b, i's hon for those much of those. and within weeks they have a new list of surveillance targets. and the fact that it was an attack to the f b i office, of course, made them feels a very personally committed to that investigation. so all of their resources into the, the, the, the, i gather is enough evidence to get a quarter and start stopping phone conversations and planting microphones in homes and vehicles buried in the miles of audio troops f b. i. agents are stunned to hear conversations about $7000000.00. they soon come to the conclusion that the grenade attack and the wells fargo robbery were both done by those much of data. by 1985, the b i has gathered reams of evidence leaking,
8:54 am
say got to the wells fargo robbery barnett. b, i raid rounds up 11, much of the data, charging them with conspiracy in the wells fargo robbery. se gardner and heather fios are jailed without bond. initially, the government plans to charge the group with suspicious conspiracy planning to overthrow the us government, the really right to. and i were in this facility for about a year during the free trial here. and they have like. busy list of pictures of like 10 inmates that you need to be on the look out for, for correctional officers. so that takes their curiosity. and so with dog and it's, it's not too hard, you know, for an american understand independence sit there. so it's understand that,
8:55 am
you know, if somebody invaded your country, what would you do? you know, how would you feel if you'd lost the war against the japanese? every law that was passed here in the united states had to be approved by the japanese congress. not fair. yeah. tell me about it. you know, guys would get it and the americans don't have a problem with violence at all. i mean, if anything, to drone to violent. so the fact that we had resorted to violence for that, you know, and in favor of independence or the freedom of our partner or whatevers. there's like the say guy and feeling better to hear that along with the other defendants are held in pre trial detention for 2 years. confined to themselves for up to 23 hours a day. so i don't what's available,
8:56 am
haven't been lisa. no way i can hold on the the, i'm on your but when i'm in the holding the receiver and the entrance and the hope i get label stuff and we'll just, we'll end up and then because of a number of the needs. and so my mom a take, i don't know, child for the independent pennsylvania. becky said, go in lexington. i a model lentil i lo, sorted out over the dining room. candle manos man. does he say i'm on the scene on the if i chose the thing i get in don't say and book i don't, i don't follow it down a little my that on from the last i as i don't i or the, i'm in the same thing in in the a lot of the black box, the only one of the only i feel because a week the but i will be focusing on
8:57 am
a fast all or the see other than really well, it's not able the see like the week of all of the whole thing when you're free the, by the answers and see them. i don't see, i don't know the after 2 years of imprisonment, a judge rules that the pre trial detention was unconstitutional and the defendants are released on bales. the feeling better to have eyes fitted with a gps tracking ankle bracelet to ensure that he doesn't escape on september 23rd 1990 facing a potential 130 year sentence freely by the door here that cuts his bracelets. and once again goes underground, the,
8:58 am
i'm a senior research team to remove my suite, google news, i'm losing this, we thought because of the, some of those survives in the blues. community sticker for the music, according that took a gamble pleasurable and to order these voided. what's the key of know wouldn't be the one that truly automated room. there are silicone. you pardon? you assume the point is mostly pulsing volume with zillow. so it's more than a bunch of fridays. it's only me because the last place
