The Power of Nightmares: Part 3. 'The Shadows in the Cave' (2004x3)

Uitzenddatum: Nov 03, 2004

The final part addresses the actual rise of al-Qaeda. Curtis argues that, after their failed revolutions, bin Laden and Zawahiri had little or no popular support, let alone a serious complex organisation of terrorists, and were dependent on independent operatives to carry out their new call for jihad.
