00:00We have spent most of our lives in some of the most dangerous places on the planet.
00:05But with you there's nothing else. What are you running away from?
00:08We're journalists. We're good at it.
00:12Yesterday's massacres and trying to instigate a media blackout have infuriated the rest of the Egyptian people.
00:19These protesters are making it very clear how willing they are to defy the government.
00:24Who is it?
00:28Mr. Bidur?
00:29Yes, who are you?
00:30Are you police?
00:32It's time to go.
00:37And?
00:38Hi.
00:39Tell them we have to stay together.
00:46Pedro Gresta.
00:47Gresta.
00:48Charged with aiding a terrorist group.
00:51Do you know what's going on here?
00:52We're pawns in a political game.
00:56Where should I go?
00:57There must be some confusion.
00:58I'm just a journalist.
01:00My lawyers told my family.
01:01You can be bought cheaply because you have no moral allegiances.
01:04I need to know what he said in his statement.
01:07They know where I live. They know I have a child.
01:10I just wanted to go home.
01:11Hello, sir.
01:12This whole world is bloody insane.
01:14Dad, you're not helping.
01:15Al Jazeera is a terrorist organization and these are their agents.
01:21Bahir Mohamed and Peter Griffith.
01:24Killed Bahir Mohamed.
01:25Seven years.
01:28The only way through this is to make a case to the world.
01:32Now is the time for pressure.
01:35I'm nervous as I write this.
01:37I've been caught in the middle of a multi-headed political struggle.
01:43So our arrest here is not a mistake.
01:49Your letter was very good.
01:51There'll be repercussions.
01:54Your voice is becoming an echo chamber in the West.
01:58I can no longer pretend it'll go away by keeping quiet.
02:04We will never give up.
02:08As a journalist, this is my battle.
