The War Against Al-Qaida: The CIA's Mission to Take Down Bin Laden

Dr.Docs' Take

Another entry in the CIA-declassified strand, this one on the long campaign against al-Qaeda, the drones, the raids, and the operations that only surface years after the fact. I keep the agency's flattering self-portrait at a healthy distance while soaking up the tradecraft. The real value is in the gap between the version we were sold and the version buried in the files. Watch the operations, question the narrator, as always.

This documentary goes behind the scenes of the CIA's long war against Al-Qaida and the hunt for Osama bin Laden. Part of a declassified series, it traces the intelligence work, drone technology and special operations that pursued those behind the attacks on America. Over its full length it maps the covert campaign that reshaped modern counterterrorism. A detailed watch for anyone interested in intelligence, the war on terror and the mission to take down bin Laden. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
