the most powerful most influential

remain that today the bin Laden company
55
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,290
is sort of the Bechtel

with devastating effect

father his faith which will dominate

very pious attitude you know that you
70
00:03:55,500 --> 00:03:57,239
read the Quran you become very very
71
00:03:57,239 --> 00:03:58,920
familiar with the Prophet and that the
72
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,079
model of the Prophet is the way to model

Muhammad and also the the global

00:04:06,260 --> 00:04:08,849
borderless side of Islam in terms of
76
00:04:08,849 --> 00:04:10,769
eventually Islamic faith being the fate
77
00:04:10,769 --> 00:04:14,549
of the entire world critically bin Laden
78
00:04:14,549 --> 00:04:16,769
learns how the Prophet Mohammed wasn't
79
00:04:16,769 --> 00:04:19,500
just a religious figure but also a great
80

jinn who believed in spreading Islam
81
00:04:22,079 --> 00:04:30,210
through warfare but at this stage he's
82
00:04:30,210 --> 00:04:33,380
like any other young man growing up
83
00:04:33,380 --> 00:04:35,780
according to his mother he played
84
00:04:35,780 --> 00:04:39,950
football went to picnics rode horses and
85
00:04:39,950 --> 00:04:42,680
socialized he never caused me to worry
86
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,440
about him in his teenage years he was
87
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,240
described as a very intelligent very
88
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,360
generous very kind by all accounts is
89
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,460
very well liked by the people that knew
90
00:04:52,460 --> 00:04:54,440
him in Saudi Arabia as he was growing up
91
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,890
I think most who met him remarked on his
92
00:04:57,890 --> 00:05:00,350
soft-spoken as' and his gentility in
93
00:05:00,350 --> 00:05:04,030

when his father dies in a plane crash
97
00:05:16,370 --> 00:05:20,069
but bin Laden inherits between 30 and 80
98
00:05:20,069 --> 00:05:22,729
million dollars which is held in trust
99
00:05:22,729 --> 00:05:27,599
until he's 21 he inherited a large sum
100
00:05:27,599 --> 00:05:30,870
of money from his father but his faith
101
00:05:30,870 --> 00:05:33,270
continued to kind of regulate and
102
00:05:33,270 --> 00:05:38,129
control his life this fortune would
103
00:05:38,129 --> 00:05:39,810
enable bin Laden to become one of the
104
00:05:39,810 --> 00:05:42,120
largest financial sponsors of Islamic

00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:33,780
him deeply Atlantians university days
116
00:06:33,780 --> 00:06:37,860
came at a time when the muslim world had
117
00:06:37,860 --> 00:06:40,320
been shocked by the defeat by the

his generation the generation of defeat

stand up for themselves this is when he
123
00:06:57,870 --> 00:06:59,670

Palestinian professor Abdullah Azzam
125
00:07:03,290 --> 00:07:07,020

Islamic Muslim Brotherhood and Azam
127
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,970

refugee from the Palestinians struggle
129
00:07:16,470 --> 00:07:19,170
against Israel Azam believes religion
130
00:07:19,170 --> 00:07:23,540
and politics are completely intertwined
131
00:07:23,540 --> 00:07:27,260
nizam was almost fanatical in his desire
132
00:07:27,260 --> 00:07:28,910
to see the elimination of the State of
133
00:07:28,910 --> 00:07:32,450
Israel through violent jihad - Azam most
134
00:07:32,450 --> 00:07:34,970
Palestinians are Muslims and an attack
135
00:07:34,970 --> 00:07:39,860
on one Muslim is an attack on all his
136
00:07:39,860 --> 00:07:43,160
motto is brutally uncompromising the
137
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,790
rifle alone no negotiations no
138
00:07:45,790 --> 00:07:51,080
conferences and no dial Bin Ladin very
139
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,870
much took that to heart and used it as
140
00:07:53,870 --> 00:07:55,790
the core of his appeal to the Muslim
141

world implacable violent jihad or holy
142
00:07:59,810 --> 00:08:02,690

force in bin Laden's version of Islam
144
00:08:08,250 --> 00:08:10,960
though at this stage he's just a young
145
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:15,370
man with ideas he has no cause that is
146
00:08:15,370 --> 00:08:17,889

147
00:08:17,889 --> 00:08:20,380
from idealistic student into a warrior
148
00:08:20,380 --> 00:08:23,460

Christmas Eve 1979 the Soviet invasion
151
00:08:33,740 --> 00:08:38,120
of Afghanistan 1979 is seminal because
152
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,640
it's the first time that a Western power
153
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,059
saw a Union invade a Muslim country and
154
00:08:44,059 --> 00:08:45,920
tries to overcome his land
155
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,980
bin Laden is particularly struck by how
156
00:08:48,980 --> 00:08:51,460
the Afghan people fight back

160
00:09:02,540 --> 00:09:05,480
have a group who in fact represent Islam
161
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,790
and will fight the infidel and will
162
00:09:07,790 --> 00:09:14,959
fight for the future of Islam the words

00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,610
suddenly become lead an attack on

166
00:09:24,889 --> 00:09:27,339
go there

more or less the headquarters of jihad
172
00:09:51,890 --> 00:09:54,560
in northern Afghanistan was really a
173
00:09:54,560 --> 00:09:57,200
milieu of what we would call today
174
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:02,440
radical Islamists from around the world

179
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,870
little to offer as a fighter he has no

military training or battle experience
181

the success of their educational system

have lived in Monaco or in Switzerland
195
00:11:05,209 --> 00:11:09,080

fundraiser he's brilliant
197
00:11:11,060 --> 00:11:13,760

resistance needs more than money it
202
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,200
needs organization with thousands of

Arab fighters from Egypt Syria and

300 thousand dollars a year
220
00:12:29,170 --> 00:12:31,779
he also uses the family's construction

company to funnel in new recruits build
222
00:12:35,050 --> 00:12:37,450
tunnels and mountain hideaways to

00:12:37,450 --> 00:12:41,889
protect them from Soviet bombers but

00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,660
vulnerable to is Soviet and Afghan
226
00:12:46,660 --> 00:12:50,019

00:12:50,019 --> 00:12:52,000
positions where we can protect our

young man who rode the bulldozer in the

midst of bullets it was not exactly that
236
00:13:15,430 --> 00:13:18,459
he was a fighter but he he was a combat
237
00:13:18,459 --> 00:13:22,560
engineer and apparently a very good one
238
00:13:25,529 --> 00:13:28,660
yet for all his skills as an organizer
239
00:13:28,660 --> 00:13:32,769
and logistics man it's not enough he
240
00:13:32,769 --> 00:13:35,500

00:13:43,190 --> 00:13:45,440
to the unimaginable cruelty and
244
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,870
terrorist operations he'll spearhead all

in the summer of 1986 is finally allowed
247
00:13:57,459 --> 00:13:59,649
to become a warrior in the center of the
248
00:13:59,649 --> 00:14:01,990
action when it became time to get his
249
00:14:01,990 --> 00:14:03,730
hands dirty he was one of the first
250
00:14:03,730 --> 00:14:06,370
people on the frontlines this is
251
00:14:06,370 --> 00:14:08,620
something that really ingratiated or
252
00:14:08,620 --> 00:14:11,170
someone will add into his peers and how
253
00:14:11,170 --> 00:14:16,800
to developed his legend he finds war
254
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,810
intoxicating at last he's battling for
255
00:14:19,810 --> 00:14:22,490
his faith against a godless enemy

[Music]
257
00:14:26,470 --> 00:14:29,120
something terrifying is unleashed in the
258
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:34,550
once shy and gentle young man in London
259
00:14:34,550 --> 00:14:37,130
one particular horrific battle where the
260
00:14:37,130 --> 00:14:43,250
Mujahideen was almost defeated in one
261
00:14:43,250 --> 00:14:46,070
encounter as part of a patrol of just 50
262
00:14:46,070 --> 00:14:48,470

263
00:14:48,470 --> 00:14:51,709
far superior trained and equipped Soviet

00:14:58,940 --> 00:15:01,279
you're talking tank warfare artillery

00:15:01,279 --> 00:15:04,790

267
00:15:04,790 --> 00:15:11,570
accounts a ferocious warrior a senior
268
00:15:11,570 --> 00:15:13,760
Afghan commander at the time said I
269
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,920
watched him with his Kalashnikov in his
270
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,230
hand under fire from mortars and the
271
00:15:18,230 --> 00:15:21,670
multi barrel of rocket launchers
272
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:29,410
at this stage bin Laden is cutting
273
00:15:29,410 --> 00:15:31,960
unheroic figure on the battlefield
274
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,270
before he arrived his fighters with
275
00:15:34,270 --> 00:15:36,820
gangs who slowly go silent almost as if
276
00:15:36,820 --> 00:15:38,740
they sensed his arrival so there's a
277
00:15:38,740 --> 00:15:40,240
huge mystique built up very quickly
278
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,180
around this man his mystique grows
279
00:15:43,180 --> 00:15:46,840
thanks to how he lives his life the son
280
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,240
of extreme privilege asks no special
281
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,060
favors and it all adds to his charisma
282
00:15:52,060 --> 00:15:55,210
he was very respected by the people he
283
00:15:55,210 --> 00:15:57,610
fought alongside because for the tsiyon
284
00:15:57,610 --> 00:16:01,500
of a billionaire he slept with them many
285
00:16:01,500 --> 00:16:05,230
he ate the food they ate the Afghans
286
00:16:05,230 --> 00:16:07,450
became very devoted to him and very
287
00:16:07,450 --> 00:16:09,940
loyal to him because of his actions in
288
00:16:09,940 --> 00:16:13,150
support of their cause by now it isn't
289
00:16:13,150 --> 00:16:15,940
just Afghans who revere him Arab
290
00:16:15,940 --> 00:16:18,430
journalists based in Peshawar publish
291
00:16:18,430 --> 00:16:20,290
reports of his battlefield heroics

throughout the Middle East
293
00:16:23,700 --> 00:16:26,470
this gives bin-laden a reputation and
294
00:16:26,470 --> 00:16:29,290
status in the militant Muslim world he's
295
00:16:29,290 --> 00:16:31,990
never experienced before and a
296
00:16:31,990 --> 00:16:35,170
confidence to take his jihad to a whole
297
00:16:35,170 --> 00:16:36,540

it's a relationship that marks a shift
304
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,550
in bin Laden's focus from holy warrior
305
00:17:01,550 --> 00:17:07,250
to international terrorist is a lucky
306
00:17:07,250 --> 00:17:10,130
find for Osama bin Laden in the sense
307
00:17:10,130 --> 00:17:13,430

version of jihad is that there is only

one correct form of Islam there's and
314
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,120
that anyone even fellow Muslims who
315
00:17:38,120 --> 00:17:40,490

really were just another infidel Muslim

00:17:50,360 --> 00:17:52,190
perhaps but I'm but an infidel and he
321
00:17:52,190 --> 00:17:53,990
was willing to kill all kinds with all

Arab world who lack his fanaticism
328
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,270

al-zawahiri's extremism in one respect

going to work we need to have a bigger

00:18:28,100 --> 00:18:30,410
impact in the world if we're going to do
335
00:18:30,410 --> 00:18:32,060
what we want to do if the jihad is to be

everywhere he delivers his first speech
339
00:18:41,570 --> 00:18:45,840
denouncing the United States
340
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,640
the Americans take our money and give
341
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,740

345
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:12,040
the base in Arabic al Qaeda
346
00:19:12,610 --> 00:19:14,980
there are four basic components to the
347
00:19:14,980 --> 00:19:17,049
al-qaeda organization at its inception
348
00:19:17,049 --> 00:19:21,340
the first is to field fighters for
349
00:19:21,340 --> 00:19:25,210
training advising and combat
350
00:19:25,210 --> 00:19:29,170
the second is administrative the third
351
00:19:29,170 --> 00:19:31,660
deals with religious matters issuing
352
00:19:31,660 --> 00:19:33,940
fatwas and developing courses for
353
00:19:33,940 --> 00:19:37,720
members the fourth is a media propaganda
354
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,800
win later bin Laden will add it's a
355
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,410
military faction there were righteous
356
00:19:44,410 --> 00:19:47,850
mission and the mission is in fact to
357
00:19:47,850 --> 00:19:51,160
destroy Western influence but also to
358
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,260
defend Islam though which is very
359
00:19:53,260 --> 00:19:55,900
important that they are in fact the
360
00:19:55,900 --> 00:19:58,000
soldiers of the right they are righteous
361
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:02,880
and they and this belief is very strong
362
00:20:03,490 --> 00:20:06,500
from the time bin-laden organized
363
00:20:06,500 --> 00:20:08,300
al-qaeda he viewed it as an enduring
364
00:20:08,300 --> 00:20:10,550
organization that would move on it from
365
00:20:10,550 --> 00:20:14,960
after Afghanistan to help Muslims who
366
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,990
were defending Islam in other areas of
367
00:20:17,990 --> 00:20:22,490
the world he saw it as the vanguard of a
368
00:20:22,490 --> 00:20:26,420
bigger movement of a bigger jihad he was
369
00:20:26,420 --> 00:20:29,150
outspoken if you will in his saying that
370
00:20:29,150 --> 00:20:32,390
we are just a small group of people our
371
00:20:32,390 --> 00:20:36,320
job is to inspire instigate other
372
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:40,760
Muslims to join the jihad and I think
373
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,670
that message was a very powerful one
374
00:20:42,670 --> 00:20:45,330
[Music]
375
00:20:45,330 --> 00:20:48,000
bin Laden's global vision was what drove
376
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,320
the whole thing and of course his
377
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,340
financing he was the first Islamic
378
00:20:52,340 --> 00:20:55,590
jihadist that had the finances not just
379
00:20:55,590 --> 00:20:57,230
the finances but the leadership
380
00:20:57,230 --> 00:21:05,400
capability to actually pull this off he
381
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,740
now does something extraordinary he
382
00:21:07,740 --> 00:21:09,720
demands that all its members swear a
383
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:15,180
religious oath to him personally in one
384
00:21:15,180 --> 00:21:17,850
step he goes from being one among many
385
00:21:17,850 --> 00:21:20,910
holy warriors into a cult-like figure in
386
00:21:20,910 --> 00:21:23,100
whose name his servants will terrorize
387
00:21:23,100 --> 00:21:28,110
the world it changed everything now he
388
00:21:28,110 --> 00:21:31,080
believed he was a kind of Islamic
389
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,150
Messiah that could take this struggle to
390
00:21:33,150 --> 00:21:35,660
other countries

392
00:21:42,910 --> 00:21:46,330
in 1989 Russia's war in Afghanistan
393
00:21:46,330 --> 00:21:50,830
finally comes to an end the Soviets are
394
00:21:50,830 --> 00:21:54,430
humiliated and withdrawn the defeat of
395
00:21:54,430 --> 00:21:56,670
the Soviet Union and their push out of
396
00:21:56,670 --> 00:22:00,610
Afghanistan was a huge moment for bin
397
00:22:00,610 --> 00:22:02,140
Laden
398
00:22:02,140 --> 00:22:04,750
claiming credit for the Afghan victory
399
00:22:04,750 --> 00:22:07,240
the al-qaeda leader speaks of two vital
400
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:11,010
lessons their victory teaches
401
00:22:11,010 --> 00:22:13,560
he realized that he can achieve a great
402
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,960
deal in terms of composing enormous
403
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,000
amounts of violence on your enemy even
404
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,620
though they must may be much better
405
00:22:19,620 --> 00:22:22,290
armed than you secondly he believes
406
00:22:22,290 --> 00:22:26,180
victory is proof that God is on his side
407
00:22:26,180 --> 00:22:30,030
bin Laden's thought it was essential to
408
00:22:30,030 --> 00:22:33,330
make this a victory granted of course by
409
00:22:33,330 --> 00:22:35,580
Allah but a victory for the entire
410
00:22:35,580 --> 00:22:37,350
Islamic world and not just for the
411
00:22:37,350 --> 00:22:39,830
Afghans
412
00:22:39,860 --> 00:22:42,679
it showed that Arabs could stand up on

the battlefield and defeat a superpower
414
00:22:51,970 --> 00:22:55,269
from 1989 onwards a summer bin Laden no
415
00:22:55,269 --> 00:22:57,429
longer wastes any time wondering whether
416
00:22:57,429 --> 00:22:59,169
his enemies can be beaten
417
00:22:59,169 --> 00:23:03,190
it's how they can be beaten having
418
00:23:03,190 --> 00:23:05,379
brought down one superpower he now
419
00:23:05,379 --> 00:23:09,220
focuses on the other what he sees as the
420
00:23:09,220 --> 00:23:13,799
biggest evil the United States
421
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:22,120
a year after the Soviet forces are

00:23:22,120 --> 00:23:24,370
routed the brutal Iraqi dictator Saddam

00:23:35,700 --> 00:23:38,920
Saudi Arabia and immediately sends a
427
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,520
message to the Saudi royal family
428
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,290
offering to form an army of 30,000
429
00:23:44,290 --> 00:23:47,400
Afghan veterans to defeat Saddam an
430
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,840
offer that is rejected
431
00:23:54,990 --> 00:23:56,820
one of the most significant events in
432
00:23:56,820 --> 00:23:58,770
bin Laden's life which eventually led to
433
00:23:58,770 --> 00:24:01,590
9/11 was the Saudi government rebuffed
434
00:24:01,590 --> 00:24:03,990
his request and told him no thank you
435
00:24:03,990 --> 00:24:06,360
we don't need you we've got the United
436
00:24:06,360 --> 00:24:08,220
States for bringing the United States in
437
00:24:08,220 --> 00:24:12,059
to Saudi Arabia the prophets is reputed
438
00:24:12,059 --> 00:24:14,100
to have said on his deathbed that I that
439
00:24:14,100 --> 00:24:15,600
if I live there will be no other
440
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,700
religion on the arab peninsula but islam
441
00:24:17,700 --> 00:24:19,700
and i think bin Laden was
442
00:24:19,700 --> 00:24:23,190
extraordinarily offended by the Saudis
443
00:24:23,190 --> 00:24:25,529
decision to invite Christians to defend
444
00:24:25,529 --> 00:24:27,740
them
445
00:24:33,630 --> 00:24:37,300

abomination upon abomination for Osama

welcoming at all in his eyes the infidel
454

US cannot be the salvation of Saudi

Arabia the American government has made
456
00:25:09,220 --> 00:25:10,750
the greatest mistake in entering the
457
00:25:10,750 --> 00:25:12,760
peninsula that no religion from the
458
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,950
non-muslim States has entered for 14

460
00:25:19,090 --> 00:25:21,610
his money would not stop until he saw
461
00:25:21,610 --> 00:25:29,980
the United States destroy but when bin
462
00:25:29,980 --> 00:25:32,290
Laden asks fellow Muslims to rise up
463
00:25:32,290 --> 00:25:34,810
against this outrage the Saudi regime
464
00:25:34,810 --> 00:25:38,860
grows uneasy breeds his home and places
465
00:25:38,860 --> 00:25:41,560
him under house arrest they wanted him
466
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,960
banished they took away his citizenship
467
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,390
cut off the 7 million dollar stipend his
468
00:25:46,390 --> 00:25:47,890
family was getting and literally just
469
00:25:47,890 --> 00:25:49,330
disconnected him from Saudi Arabia
470
00:25:49,330 --> 00:25:51,850
considering him now a threat directly to
471
00:25:51,850 --> 00:25:54,070

00:26:13,100 --> 00:26:14,960
a reputation as a safe haven for
478

money bin Laden is invited in and
482
00:26:25,060 --> 00:26:29,309
becomes known as a walking bank
483
00:26:29,309 --> 00:26:32,870
he had to build roads major motorways

various engineering projects he employed

00:26:36,330 --> 00:26:38,879
a lot of local people and he was very
486
00:26:38,879 --> 00:26:42,470
much welcomed in Sudan for a long time
487
00:26:42,470 --> 00:26:46,200
all this is simply cover for bin Laden's

real operations
489
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:53,780

the radar
505
00:27:36,869 --> 00:27:41,859

the CIA certainly take bin Laden
516
00:28:15,970 --> 00:28:18,820
extremely seriously and set up a special
517
00:28:18,820 --> 00:28:20,340
unit to focus on him
518
00:28:20,340 --> 00:28:23,200
it's called the asama bin Laden unit and
519
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:28,330
is led by Mike Sawyer it's clear that
520
00:28:28,330 --> 00:28:29,740
they are dealing with a terrorist the
521
00:28:29,740 --> 00:28:31,030
likes of which they have never seen
522
00:28:31,030 --> 00:28:38,740
before we had in 1996 Sudanese walk into
523
00:28:38,740 --> 00:28:41,440
one of our embassies in East Africa and
524
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,360
it turns out that the gentleman was a
525
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,880
bodyguard of Osama bin Laden while he
526
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:47,559
was living in the Sudan what he
527
00:28:47,559 --> 00:28:50,020
described was an organization unlike any
528
00:28:50,020 --> 00:28:53,530
we had seen and it was involved not just
529
00:28:53,530 --> 00:28:55,360
in bombing and fighting but it was
530
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,690
involved in trying to procure or build
531
00:28:58,690 --> 00:29:01,790
weapons of mass destruction
532
00:29:01,790 --> 00:29:06,530
in May 1996 bin Laden leaves Sudan for
533
00:29:06,530 --> 00:29:09,320
Afghanistan where he's welcomed with
534
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,390
open arms by the militant Islamic
535
00:29:11,390 --> 00:29:14,290
Taliban regime
536
00:29:16,290 --> 00:29:18,660
I think when you see how bin Laden was
537
00:29:18,660 --> 00:29:22,080
welcomed back into Afghanistan you can
538
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,540
see that the Afghans perceive themselves
539
00:29:24,540 --> 00:29:27,660
under debt to him not only monetary debt
540
00:29:27,660 --> 00:29:29,850
but also under personal debt for the
541
00:29:29,850 --> 00:29:32,760
risks he took with his own life during
542
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,610
their war against the communists
543
00:29:34,610 --> 00:29:37,110
al-qaeda's reputation now grows to a
544
00:29:37,110 --> 00:29:38,400
whole new level
545
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,800
his stance against American values and
546
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,860
the feebleness of the Saudi regime makes
547
00:29:43,860 --> 00:29:46,770
him a hero to radical Muslims and people
548
00:29:46,770 --> 00:29:48,660
who believe they are the underdogs all
549
00:29:48,660 --> 00:29:51,710
over the world
550
00:29:53,410 --> 00:29:55,450
drawn by the chance to fight back
551
00:29:55,450 --> 00:29:58,510
against American imperialism thousands
552
00:29:58,510 --> 00:30:01,870

and the Soviet republics come flooding
554
00:30:04,570 --> 00:30:07,300
to his cause and he trains his new
555
00:30:07,300 --> 00:30:10,300
recruits in bomb-making and terrorist
556
00:30:10,300 --> 00:30:12,540
tactics
557
00:30:14,390 --> 00:30:17,010
all the while he ramps up his
558
00:30:17,010 --> 00:30:20,760
anti-american rhetoric in February 1998
559
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,540
he says to kill Americans and the allies
560
00:30:24,540 --> 00:30:27,570
both civil and military is an individual
561
00:30:27,570 --> 00:30:30,720
duty of every Muslim who's able until
562
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,940
their armies shattered and broken winged
563
00:30:32,940 --> 00:30:35,510
depart from all the lands of Islam
564
00:30:35,510 --> 00:30:40,160
incapable of threatening any Muslim
565
00:30:42,420 --> 00:30:45,970
he adds a new dimension to his skills as
566
00:30:45,970 --> 00:30:49,320
a military organizer a truly evil
567
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,180
terrorist imagination one of the
568
00:30:52,180 --> 00:30:55,840
dramatic changes and of his operational
569
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,570
techniques was when he changed and began
570
00:30:58,570 --> 00:31:00,870
using suicide bombers in his attacks
571
00:31:00,870 --> 00:31:03,610
what that created for the first time in
572
00:31:03,610 --> 00:31:06,850
history was an army of essentially smart
573
00:31:06,850 --> 00:31:10,480
bombs these were bombs with human brains
574
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,730
that could they could think they could
575
00:31:12,730 --> 00:31:14,440
navigate and commit acts of terror that
576
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,300
up till that time could never be
577
00:31:16,300 --> 00:31:17,980
committed in such a an operational
578
00:31:17,980 --> 00:31:20,370
fashion
579
00:31:23,340 --> 00:31:26,940
on August the 7th 1998 a truck is driven
580
00:31:26,940 --> 00:31:30,919
into the US Embassy in Kenya
581
00:31:41,170 --> 00:31:46,000
the suicide bomber kills 213 people
582
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:50,170
including 12 Americans and wounding
583
00:31:50,170 --> 00:31:54,650
4,600 most of the victims a Kenyan
584
00:31:54,650 --> 00:31:59,450
civilians he had made a transition from
585
00:31:59,450 --> 00:32:02,600
as Saudi socialite a wealthy person into
586
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,690
this horrible mass murderer that could
587
00:32:05,690 --> 00:32:07,910
care less about the death of innocent
588
00:32:07,910 --> 00:32:10,210
people
589
00:32:14,659 --> 00:32:17,720
four minutes later a second suicide bomb
590
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:22,440
at the US Embassy in Tanzania explodes
591
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:26,750
eleven are killed eighty-four injured
592
00:32:26,750 --> 00:32:29,370
this is the first time bin Laden does
593
00:32:29,370 --> 00:32:32,129
what will become his signature the
594
00:32:32,129 --> 00:32:35,000
multiple attack
595
00:32:35,309 --> 00:32:38,519
they became more and more ruthless and
596
00:32:38,519 --> 00:32:40,860
specifically focusing on American
597
00:32:40,860 --> 00:32:43,169
interests and American people and
598
00:32:43,169 --> 00:32:45,360
calling for Muslims to start killing
599
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,110
them these acts of terrorist violence
600
00:32:49,110 --> 00:32:52,470
are abhorrent they are inhuman we will
601
00:32:52,470 --> 00:32:57,289
use all the means at our disposal
602
00:32:59,220 --> 00:33:02,250
in retaliation president clinton fires
603
00:33:02,250 --> 00:33:05,310
75 cruise missiles at al-qaeda camps in
604
00:33:05,310 --> 00:33:08,370
Afghanistan other missiles demolish a
605
00:33:08,370 --> 00:33:11,580
factory in Sudan but these attacks only
606
00:33:11,580 --> 00:33:14,280
anger the Muslim world and feed bin
607
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:18,650
Laden's image as an Islamic hero
608
00:33:19,970 --> 00:33:24,920
he goads America further I am not afraid
609
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,050
of the American threats against me as
610
00:33:27,050 --> 00:33:30,920
long as I am Alive there will be no rest
611
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,500
for the enemies of Islam I will continue
612
00:33:33,500 --> 00:33:36,830
my mission against them it's a cold
613
00:33:36,830 --> 00:33:40,030
blooded promise
614
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:45,490
next he targets the US military
615
00:33:50,350 --> 00:33:57,010
a small boat manned by suicide bombers
616
00:33:57,010 --> 00:33:58,570
rips a massive hole in the
617
00:33:58,570 --> 00:34:00,549
billion-dollar American destroyer the
618
00:34:00,549 --> 00:34:05,350
USS Cole in the port of Aden killing 17
619
00:34:05,350 --> 00:34:09,300
American sailors 39 others are injured
620
00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:12,409
[Music]
621
00:34:12,989 --> 00:34:15,340
but for all his success
622
00:34:15,340 --> 00:34:18,070
bin Laden's terrorism isn't achieving
623
00:34:18,070 --> 00:34:21,580
his goal his aim is to lure the u.s. to
624
00:34:21,580 --> 00:34:24,129
attack him inside Afghanistan where they
625
00:34:24,129 --> 00:34:26,109
have no allies and where they can be
626
00:34:26,109 --> 00:34:28,679
picked off from the hills by guerillas
627
00:34:28,679 --> 00:34:31,149
just like what happened with the Soviets
628
00:34:31,149 --> 00:34:35,469
in the 80s his inspiration is Vietnam
629
00:34:35,469 --> 00:34:38,129
they looked at the example of Vietnam
630
00:34:38,129 --> 00:34:40,239
Americans at half a million troops in
631
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,580
Vietnam but the end up by being defeated
632
00:34:42,580 --> 00:34:45,369
so therefore this great Satan in the
633
00:34:45,369 --> 00:34:47,350
West which appears to be very very
634
00:34:47,350 --> 00:34:50,250
powerful military power can be defeated
635
00:34:50,250 --> 00:34:53,500
for that tactic to work he needs to find
636
00:34:53,500 --> 00:34:55,840
a way to make sure the Americans come
637
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,000
after him he really thought they needed
638
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,060
a big attack and he was always a man who
639
00:35:01,060 --> 00:35:05,590
likes big things in terms of actions
640
00:35:05,590 --> 00:35:08,380
Osama bin Laden will devise a plan so
641
00:35:08,380 --> 00:35:10,570
evil it will change the world forever
642
00:35:10,570 --> 00:35:13,720
and force America to give him the
643
00:35:13,720 --> 00:35:18,160
attention he craves the vision which
644
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,370
they had for 9/11 were to deliver such a
645
00:35:21,370 --> 00:35:25,840
blow to the United States it will so
646
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,330
antagonize the Americans that they will
647
00:35:28,330 --> 00:35:35,920
overreact so the head of al-qaeda dusts
648
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,530
off an old idea that has been floating
649
00:35:38,530 --> 00:35:42,670
around since 1995 bin Laden was aware of
650
00:35:42,670 --> 00:35:44,380
what's called the Bojinka plot which was
651
00:35:44,380 --> 00:35:46,690
a plot to use Airlines coming from
652
00:35:46,690 --> 00:35:48,370
foreign countries into the United States
653
00:35:48,370 --> 00:35:51,740
and explode those planes
654
00:35:51,740 --> 00:35:54,500
the original plan involves hijacking and
655
00:35:54,500 --> 00:35:57,109
flying ten planes piloted by suicide
656
00:35:57,109 --> 00:36:00,050
operatives into ten targets on America's
657
00:36:00,050 --> 00:36:02,880
east and west coasts
658
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,220
it fits in with his favor demo of
659
00:36:05,220 --> 00:36:07,410
hitting multiple targets at the same
660
00:36:07,410 --> 00:36:09,650
time
661
00:36:09,650 --> 00:36:12,859
bin Laden decides to streamline the idea
662
00:36:12,859 --> 00:36:16,470
he will use fewer planes but strike at
663
00:36:16,470 --> 00:36:19,559
the very heart of American values their
664
00:36:19,559 --> 00:36:23,279
businesses military systems and centers
665
00:36:23,279 --> 00:36:29,849
of political power in bin Laden's mind
666
00:36:29,849 --> 00:36:32,599
the World Trade Center towers were the
667
00:36:32,599 --> 00:36:35,099
representation of what America was in
668
00:36:35,099 --> 00:36:38,039
his mind he the mystic materialistic and
669
00:36:38,039 --> 00:36:41,940
moral greedy exporting that greed and
670
00:36:41,940 --> 00:36:44,130
that money all around the world it
671
00:36:44,130 --> 00:36:46,140
doesn't matter to him that these are
672
00:36:46,140 --> 00:36:49,619
civilian targets including some Muslims
673
00:36:49,619 --> 00:36:52,680
it was okay to attack symbolic targets
674
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,049
even if they included innocent civilians
675
00:36:55,049 --> 00:36:57,599
because that was Allah's will if they
676
00:36:57,599 --> 00:36:59,160
were good Muslims think they would go to
677
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:00,809
heaven if they weren't they would not
678
00:37:00,809 --> 00:37:03,480
and his developing ideology that was
679
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:07,349
just fine the 21st century's most
680
00:37:07,349 --> 00:37:09,779
vicious terrorist now brings together
681
00:37:09,779 --> 00:37:12,420
all his knowledge and everything that
682
00:37:12,420 --> 00:37:14,420
has ever motivated
683
00:37:14,420 --> 00:37:16,970
his business studies and organizational
684
00:37:16,970 --> 00:37:19,849
skills his ability to raise vast sums of
685
00:37:19,849 --> 00:37:21,680
money and to mobilize recruits from
686
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,559

weapons his expertise in explosives
689
00:37:29,839 --> 00:37:32,450
learned from his father and his
690
00:37:32,450 --> 00:37:34,819
knowledge of civil engineering and how
691
00:37:34,819 --> 00:37:40,069
buildings are constructed so for bin
692
00:37:40,069 --> 00:37:42,200
Laden - to begin to plan an attack
693
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,750
against a building and his understanding
694
00:37:44,750 --> 00:37:46,910
of actually hitting a building it fit
695
00:37:46,910 --> 00:37:50,680
right into his construction background
696
00:37:53,900 --> 00:37:56,339
bin Laden will later recall their
697
00:37:56,339 --> 00:37:58,740
expectations when the first plane hits
698
00:37:58,740 --> 00:38:02,160
the World Trade Center tower but for all
699
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,130
his expertise he vastly underestimates
700
00:38:05,130 --> 00:38:08,640
the effectiveness of the impact we
701
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:10,589
calculated and advanced the number of
702
00:38:10,589 --> 00:38:12,869
casualties from the enemy who would be
703
00:38:12,869 --> 00:38:16,020
killed on the position of the tower we
704
00:38:16,020 --> 00:38:18,150
calculated that the floors that would be
705
00:38:18,150 --> 00:38:21,660
hit would be three or four floors due to
706
00:38:21,660 --> 00:38:23,609
my experience in this field I was
707
00:38:23,609 --> 00:38:25,470
thinking that the fire from all the fuel
708
00:38:25,470 --> 00:38:27,720
in the plane would hit all the floors
709
00:38:27,720 --> 00:38:32,540
above it only this is all we hoped for
710

they would be martyrs and heroes which
727
00:39:28,410 --> 00:39:31,529
would help Islam and would help the

explains that all the planes hijacked in

the United States must be crashed or
732
00:39:41,940 --> 00:39:45,539
exploded at nearly the same time to

hollywood-esque

terrorist event and this constituted the
755
00:41:29,930 --> 00:41:32,180
most successful terrorist attack of all

Americans launched their war on terror
793
00:43:37,180 --> 00:43:39,380

[Music]
803
00:44:10,450 --> 00:44:12,849
bin Laden disappeared from the world
804
00:44:12,849 --> 00:44:16,270
scene the CI in virtually every other
805
00:44:16,270 --> 00:44:17,770
Allied intelligence service in the world
806
00:44:17,770 --> 00:44:20,099
was trying to find out where he was as
807
00:44:20,099 --> 00:44:22,750
the head of al-qaeda hides from his
808
00:44:22,750 --> 00:44:25,150
American hunters he releases video and
809
00:44:25,150 --> 00:44:26,980
audio taped messages which reach
810
00:44:26,980 --> 00:44:29,829
audiences of millions and inspire

00:44:29,829 --> 00:44:32,890
terrorist attacks around the world bin
812
00:44:32,890 --> 00:44:35,230
Laden and his personality had now
813
00:44:35,230 --> 00:44:37,270
replicated itself in some of ad hoc
814
00:44:37,270 --> 00:44:39,010
groups that were now carrying out
815
00:44:39,010 --> 00:44:42,300
attacks as if they were allocated
816

[Music]
817
00:44:44,829 --> 00:44:47,680
but if the aim of 911 was to spark a
818
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:51,029
massive Islamic uprising it fails
819
00:44:51,029 --> 00:44:53,920
horrific as these attacks are the West
820
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,860
remains stable

[Music]
822
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:01,770
instead bin Laden is forced to hole up
823
00:45:01,770 --> 00:45:04,440
in a secret compound enclosure in
824
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:06,690
Abbottabad at the foothills of the
825
00:45:06,690 --> 00:45:07,530
Himalayas
826
00:45:07,530 --> 00:45:10,700
in Pakistan
827
00:45:11,109 --> 00:45:13,690
at first he fears the possibility of
828
00:45:13,690 --> 00:45:16,150
being seen during his daily walks in the
829
00:45:16,150 --> 00:45:19,779
garden he knew he was being hunted from
830
00:45:19,779 --> 00:45:22,420
the skies he knew that you know just one
831
00:45:22,420 --> 00:45:24,549
sighting by a drone the six foot three
832
00:45:24,549 --> 00:45:29,039
figure would lead to his annihilation
833
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:36,250
to evade American eyes he follows
834
00:45:36,250 --> 00:45:40,030
exceptional security procedures he uses
835
00:45:40,030 --> 00:45:42,910
no electronic devices and communicates
836
00:45:42,910 --> 00:45:47,680
only via a trusted courier but as the
837
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:49,990
years of seclusion grow there are
838
00:45:49,990 --> 00:45:50,970
consequences
839
00:45:50,970 --> 00:45:55,060
he becomes irrelevant forced isolation
840
00:45:55,060 --> 00:45:56,500
means that he can no longer be the
841
00:45:56,500 --> 00:46:00,400
leader of extreme Islam bin Laden was no
842
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,680
longer the active commander that he used
843
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:05,320
to be was the most wanted man on earth
844
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,850
couldn't go anywhere he was wasting away
845
00:46:08,850 --> 00:46:15,340
trapped inside his own prison I protest
846
00:46:15,340 --> 00:46:17,920
to God so much about my isolation and
847
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,650
being alone I worried people will tire
848
00:46:20,650 --> 00:46:23,080
of me and will become old and worn out
849
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:27,940
to them but I protest only to God over
850
00:46:27,940 --> 00:46:30,130
time bin Laden becomes a shell of his
851
00:46:30,130 --> 00:46:33,040
former self and his days are endlessly
852
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,230
mundane mostly the accounts that we
853
00:46:35,230 --> 00:46:37,390
received indicated that he simply sat
854
00:46:37,390 --> 00:46:39,940
inside most of the day watching videos
855
00:46:39,940 --> 00:46:41,830
of his old speeches over and over and
856
00:46:41,830 --> 00:46:43,950
over
857
00:46:48,380 --> 00:46:52,489
in 2010 as he continues his walks alone
858
00:46:52,489 --> 00:46:55,400
around his garden he has no idea that an
859
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:59,210
NSA satellite is watching it has spotted
860
00:46:59,210 --> 00:47:01,759
a mysterious tall man constantly walking
861
00:47:01,759 --> 00:47:08,599
in circles the CIA are notified the
862
00:47:08,599 --> 00:47:10,369
agents give the mysterious man the
863
00:47:10,369 --> 00:47:14,150
nickname the Pacer and they plan to get
864
00:47:14,150 --> 00:47:24,470
him in the small hours of the morning on
865
00:47:24,470 --> 00:47:27,920
May the 1st 2011 the world's most wanted
866
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:30,769
terrorist is awoken by the sound of an
867
00:47:30,769 --> 00:47:34,700
explosion he turns to his wife and says
868
00:47:34,700 --> 00:47:37,579
doc turn on the light it is the last
869
00:47:37,579 --> 00:47:41,470
words he will ever say
870
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:46,780
Navy SEALs burst into the compound they
871
00:47:46,780 --> 00:47:48,700
find the al-qaida leader in an upstairs
872
00:47:48,700 --> 00:47:51,100
bedroom with a pistol and an assault
873
00:47:51,100 --> 00:47:53,970
rifle nearby
874
00:47:58,170 --> 00:48:03,270
I can report to the American people and
875
00:48:03,270 --> 00:48:06,030
to the world that the United States has
876
00:48:06,030 --> 00:48:07,770
conducted an operation that killed Osama
877
00:48:07,770 --> 00:48:13,740
bin Laden the leader of al-qaeda over
878
00:48:13,740 --> 00:48:16,770
the next 24 hours bin Laden is buried in
879
00:48:16,770 --> 00:48:19,350
a religious funeral at sea so his body
880
00:48:19,350 --> 00:48:23,300
can never become a shrine but even so
881
00:48:23,300 --> 00:48:26,390
Islamic terrorism hasn't gone away as
882
00:48:26,390 --> 00:48:29,520
one fanatical leader dies another
883
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:33,420
movement is born right now as you can
884
00:48:33,420 --> 00:48:35,550
see by simply looking around the fire is
885
00:48:35,550 --> 00:48:37,140
spread everywhere it's the
886
00:48:37,140 --> 00:48:38,880
responsibility of Osama bin Laden but
887
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:41,760
he's no longer necessary for it by
888
00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,310
convincing impressionable young men that
889
00:48:44,310 --> 00:48:46,230
he alone followed the correct form of
890
00:48:46,230 --> 00:48:48,810
Islam that he had a god-given right to
891
00:48:48,810 --> 00:48:51,240
determine who should live and die and
892
00:48:51,240 --> 00:48:53,130
that anyone who opposed him was inferior
893
00:48:53,130 --> 00:48:54,990
and should be condemned
894
00:48:54,990 --> 00:48:57,090
bin Laden applied much the same
895
00:48:57,090 --> 00:49:00,810
psychological tricks as Hitler they
896
00:49:00,810 --> 00:49:02,850
allowed him to create a culture which
897
00:49:02,850 --> 00:49:07,050
justifies terrorism and brutality but by
898
00:49:07,050 --> 00:49:07,950
his own terms
899
00:49:07,950 --> 00:49:11,820
Osama bin Laden is a failure there has
900
00:49:11,820 --> 00:49:13,890
been no Islamic uprising against the
901
00:49:13,890 --> 00:49:16,980
West and the Arab world remains in
902
00:49:16,980 --> 00:49:20,570
absolute turmoil
