Al Qaeda 2.0

The year is 2003, two years after 9/11, and the United States finds itself in a strange and unsettling new world of "dirty" bombs, Code Orange alerts and shoe bombers. Despite a global war on terrorism, al Qaeda has morphed into something that is at once less centralized, more widely d and more virtual than its previous incarnation. We call it Al Qaeda 2.0. In Al Qaeda 2.0, Peter Bergen, author of the critically acclaimed book Holy War Inc., and the first western author and journalist to secure a television interview with Osama bin Laden, travels to Pakistan, Yemen, the Philippines and Indonesia to ascertain the true threat of this new version of Al Qaeda. He seeks answers to questions that lie at the heart of every person in America. What threat does al Qaeda 2.0 pose to the post 9/11 world? How effective is the US military campaign against this new al Qaeda, and how has Osama bin Laden, the world's most wanted man, evaded the most powerful army in history? Peter Bergen discovers that like a virulent virus, al Qaeda has mutated into a more deadly version of the original. And despite a global war on terrorism, the threat from al Qaeda remains as high as it did on 9/11. The program received a 2004 Bronze Omni Award.
