He That Hath an Ear (2020)

Barbara Eve Harris: Katherine Bailey

Quotes 

• Eva Geller : "Masih" in Arabic means "messiah".

  Katherine Bailey : So, this is a cult?

  Eva Geller : Possibly. ISIL use this type of apocalyptic propaganda all the time, and to good effect. This guy's just taken it to the next level.

  Katherine Bailey : So, he's some rival faction? Al-Qaeda?

  Eva Geller : We don't know who he's associated with.

  Katherine Bailey : What do we know about him?

  Eva Geller : Well, that's the concerning thing. He's come out of nowhere and he's leading desperate people into the desert.

  Katherine Bailey : To what end?

  Eva Geller : Well, if it's a cult, he could be leading them to their death. Or he could be creating an army.

  Katherine Bailey : An army of sick and starving refugees?

  Eva Geller : He's creating a cause, in the hope that other people will join him.

  Katherine Bailey : That's a lot of speculation, Eva.

  Eva Geller : It's my job to speculate, ma'am. He has over 2,000 followers. What if he turns out to be another al-Baghdadi?
