- In this episode of ‘Minutes With’, we sat down with Aimen Dean, a former member of Al-Qaeda who turned his back on terrorism and joined the British Secret Service.
Aimen tells us how he ended up joining Al-Qaeda, how he met Osama Bin Laden and what made him turn his back on the organisation. His journey from terrorist to spy is an incredible one that led to Aimen being involved in the thwarting of a number of terror attacks.

"One wrong word and you are a head shorter and six feet under"
Idk if I should laugh at how cleverly made the quote is or get chills.
Cuz as a word it’s a good comical material, a good line for comedy sketches, but for the people who actually experience it, they are the ones who got targets on their back, their heads nonetheless and it is scary to run like that.
It’s an Arabic saying.
indeed well delivered
@@aziztherealone441 Oh wow really didnt know that, its a great saying
@@aziztherealone441 it isn't tho
To be a good person is one thing. To get involved with a bad group of people, realize what's going on around you, and then leave and make it your life's mission to take these bad people down (risking your life in the process), is on a whole other level of badassery.
You're watching too much Hollywood
Yes, something 99.9% of Americans would fail miserably at!
I’m sure there was a lengthy prison sentence which influenced his decision
@@taopaille-paille4992 wym he listened to the thing that’s exactly what happened ☠️
@@Richnoroddy178 he saw personal interest in changing. It's more of a grey thing than a black and white
There are hundreds of people who don’t know this man, but owe him their lives. Hats off to this hero.
I’d go as far as to say thousands
This man listened when his mom told him to not ignore that little feeling in your stomach when something is wrong. Truly a brave man.
>imagine having a mom like this
The fact that he went public with this is enough to give him all my respect.
^ what he said.
Rumour has it, he was actually such a good spy, he has been a spy for alqaeda the whole time and still is 😅
@@PaRd_CrYpToHec so a double agent?
@@megaraph5551 maybe he is a double double agent ;)
Well didn't choose to go public, he was exposed and decided to run with it I guess
This dude is so insanely calm and he shows how complex the matter is. Awesome interview.
@FBI Guy I'm sorry in advance if you readded my comment please I didn't mean anything it was a joke
@FBI Guy terrorists deserve to rot in isolate prison cell
@@sherwanburhan8942 bro that isn't the real FBI. Do you really think the FBI is commenting on TH-cam videos? Hahaha chill bro
@@angelv-xxiii Really? Oh thank god what a relief actually I'm a Muslim though
How the hell did he fail on such softball question: “Do you consider yourself a terrorist?”
He said 1,000,000 things but he did not at any point- say “no- I’m not a fking terrorist anymore” etc.....
I don’t trust that at all
As a non-native who has been studying English for years, I'm absolutely mind blown by his English. I've learned more new words listening to this guy than I usually do listening to highly educated natives. You can definitely tell he reads a lot.
lots of non natives are better at speaking than natives
Dude english is so eazy what are you talking about
@@BananaRama1312 English is one of the hardest languages in the world actually.
@@jackinabox926 Not even remotely true
@@jackinabox926 No, it's one of the easiest. Verbs hardly change unlike other languages, they don't need to change if you use the pronoun: I, you, he she, we, you plural, they go: he/she goes.
Sentence structure is simple and logical unlike many other languages.
It's a very rich language so there are loads of idioms and you need those for full understanding but you don't need those to speak it accurately and clearly. Spelling was awkward but not now with Google.
could probably make a movie about this guy props man. funny to think about the fact that he is truly responsible for saving the lives of many thousands of people
and truly responsible for the deaths of many thousands of people
What a joke, he was working for the people who created isis and alqaeda and all those terrorist organizations
He didn’t save anyone except for himself
This man looks like a maths teacher but he's a complete badass
Walter brown
Yep looks are deceptive anyone can be badass
A terrorist isn’t a bad ass. They tend to kill innocent people, nothing bad ass about it. He only turned against his terrorist pals to save his own behind.
Ceez B He probably mercy-killed innocents rather than see them fall victims to tortures. I don't know why he joined al-Alqaeda.
Seriously dumb comment. Firstly, you shouldn't judge people on what they look like. Secondly, he's not 'a complete badass' he is a low IQ dangerous person who is capable of causing great harm.
“...betraying them is an act of honour, not dishonour.” Gave me chills.
I know right he's the best spie I've heard about since Oleg Gordievsky
common sense when the leader himself has journalists cut into pieces in public places
Amen
He redeemed himself but it's important to remember that this guy was once prepared to kill, or support the killing of innocent people with a smile on his face. You have to wonder about the pathology of such people, frankly. Ideology plays a massive role in these movements but for the individual it still requires something close to psychopathy to think this way. We're not talking about a group that fought a just resistance against occupying soldiers here.
So yeah, redeemed but I wouldn't call him a hero.
@@aarondavis8943 Okay.
As an American, I consider you a brother. I'm damn glad you were able to talk about these things, and I hope that you're safe. Live your life man, and hope you have nothing but happiness

@@taopaille-paille4992 you are a parrot, I've seen low IQ people commenting this same thing on other videos, like it's an easy phrase you can say to make you feel you are more intelligent than others, and that you know more than others.

You are the one spending too much time on the internet and with too much time on your hands to keep looking for comments to post this. Embarassing.

@zak he wrote a book search his name up you’ll find it
dear god🤣✋ewwww lmaoo
@beentheredonethat no i saw it once on internet
@zak it’s hard to get to the people in power, where as attacking civilian, and using the excuse “we did this because X person is doing these evil acts, and we will keep doing this until X person stops/gets in trouble for what they do”, is much easier to do, then trying to simply kill X person.
Also, Al-Quida along with ISIS, and other terrorist organizations, believe any person that is American, or helps an American in anyway, is complicit with the atrocities that America does, therefor in their eyes, they aren’t innocent civilians, but actually a reason that those atrocities against their kind are committed.
This guy just shattered the savagery roof with that one line: Your first mistake is your last mistake. You dont live to make another mistake, you a head short and six feet under.

The moral courage this man has is incredible. I fully understand his desire for adventure in his early life. I did the same and joined the British Army. Although our paths were different, we both did it for the same reason: to protect. I have nothing but admiration for this highly eloquent and intelligent man.
I can appreciate this guys honesty and matter of fact manner of telling his story. there's no sensationalization, there's no justification for any mistakes and there's no glorification of his own role in any of the events he was involved in.

@d R which is true in a sense, but let’s say he did stand up against them after that first attack on the embassy, and was killed instantly which would likely be the case, how many more lives would have been lost because the knowledge we got from him never existed? Is that worth a mans “dignity” ?

This is an amazing interview. It's stories like these that help us understand the world, beyond ideologies and discourse of demagogues. Our assumptions are rarely correct. We are all influenced by our culture, surroundings, and experiences to the point that it's hard to keep track of our own biases. I appreciate channels like this that show us broadening perspectives. In the end, we realize that we are all people prone to making mistakes that lead to devastating consequences. We cannot judge someone based on just one metric; we are all characterized by incredibly complex sets of attributes, some of which are dark, sure, but the sum of which is always nuanced.

I remember back in the days LADBible just used to post typical "lad" humour/memes etc on Facebook, nowadays they evolved to actually posting quality content and interesting articles.
I love accents because they can tell you a bit of history about the person. You can tell from the accent he’s clearly from the Middle East but the way he says London lets you know he learned his English in the UK. Neat
Jesus Christ, every part of his words gave me chills in a different way. I don't even know he's able to survive this long and made it to this interview. He deserves to study history.
"The first mistake, is your last mistake". That gave me chills.

@@bez1196 if only they fully understood what voting is like here. Some of us feel we have the illusion of a voice when we submit a ballot. And while yea - maybe if our elections were legitimate we get told through an entire campaign from a candidate "IM GONNA END THESE WARS!" or "IM GONNA DO THIS" and what happens when they win? none of that. They continue the wars. The continue the bullshit. Hence why in the US we have an oxymoron called "an honest politician" XDDD So yea, we vote hoping these things would change and they dont. It was all lies for votes, everyone know this.
What's even more scary is we have been through this indoctrination too, for targets in the middle east and drone strikes etc.
Reminds me of what Obama did, he considered any casualties in war zones (Afghanistan etc.) posthumously combatants, so "no civilians were killed." Unreal.

Word. The punks on the streets here don't have even a tiny clue what a badass is. This dude has far more street cred than all of them combined. Anyone can threaten anyone else with a gun to make themselves feel like they're in control and have some level of power over other people but it's the quiet ones playing the long chess game that always win over loud overt threats. Once you've pulled your gun, you've shown your hand and you're caught sooner rather than later. Then again, most criminals aren't very intelligent. They could be but they willingly stunt themselves into mental deficit.

@@chatshitgetbanged.9417 read the word "suicide" very carefully. If you still don't get it then you'll never get it.
As a Kenyan, I remember very well that Al Quida “first atrocity”; it was deadly (obviously), in the nature in which an entire skyscraper had all windows ripped, causing immense human damage as broken glass flew everywhere, a standalone building folded to rubble, everywhere you looked you saw blood on everyone’s faces, dead people on the ground and others dying, heightened panic, simply, it achieved its mission: it was completely terrorising and unexpected. Also very clearly thought out in how three attacks in 3 neighbouring countries were coordinated and executed. The entire country went silent, an awful time and thing to have happened to so many innocent people. RIP to all those who were mercilessly killed.
As someone who studied history with a concentration on modern conflict, I've thanked many veterans for their service but this is especially someone whose hand I wish I could shake. Seems like he has, whether intentionally or not, strived to atone for what he knew was a mistake and a sin against his fellow human. شكرا اخي.
very well-spoken man, massive respect for how he neutrally explains his both of his motives in a respectful manner. this kind of stuff shouldn't be overlooked, even to this day.
He's so well articulated. I'm impressed.
Saudi Arabia spends a lot of money sending their young men overseas to learn English and to learn about other cultures. Yes, I wrote that correctly.

I mean many native speakers of the British isles and North American continent do not employ vocabulary such as bespectacled and bookish.
MI6 employed him, what did you expect to hear? They're not just going to employ any old knacker.
Arabs are very good users of any language. Most of my Arab friends are always better at using vocabularies than the rest of us foreigners.
You dear sir are part of history for sure. Going to Bosnia and defending civilians as many honorable soldiers do today in Ukraine, coming from different countries, is an act of a great honor and courage. You've always been a good guy, maybe lost the path, but eventually found it again.

Really brilliant interviews! I’m much more interested in people with real stories than interviews with famous people
I'd give U 100 likes for that one if I could...
“One wrong word, and you’re a head shorter and 6 ft under”
Spooky
This was really interesting. I'd love to see more content from him!
Wathching the whole video.... I have the utmost respect for this man.
EPIC!!! this guy is so clear that he is able to deliver all his intensity with complete calmness. Just Epic.
" betraying them is an act of honor not an act of dishonor"
that very line just tells u everything about him so clearly.
Sounds weird to say, but I honestly don't blame folks for getting into extremism when it's all that is offered and you know no better - the extremists make it sound prosperous until the individual sees what actually goes down. Good on this man for recognizing the threat.
but by then its too late to get out
You could say the same about the US military recruiting kids through social media to a much less extreme extent. He was lucky he had a valid excuse to leave, its not like you can just freely leave a terrorist group, just like you cant just leave the mafia etc. Alot of people are probably trapped in out of fear for their own life.
I blame religion. Different groups interpret it differently (or bend the rules to suit themselves), it just depends on where you're born. They're just too stupid to know better. I do still blame them aswell.
Exact same way that people get into gangs, they are the closet thing to a family you have, they treat you with love that you have never been given and thus you never let go
Yes. most of the terrorist group like ISIS members fall into 'extremism' because they have no money. they willing to do anything because of money.
Very insightful, thank you.
I read his book after watching this video. It is simply incredible.
this guy wouldn't be able to take a piss without every known national security agency knowing what colour it was..
