| Osama bin Laden is charged with masterminding the 1998 bombings of two U.S. embassies in East Africa, is believed to have had a role in the October attack on the USS Cole in the Yemeni port of Aden, and now is a prime suspect in the Sept. 11, 2001 destruction of the World Trade Center and the bombing of the Pentagon. Tracing the trial of evidence linking bin Laden to terrorist attacks, this report – featuring a Pulitzer-Prize winning team of NEW York Times reporters and FRONTLINE correspondent, Lowell Bergaman – examines the terrorist attacks which are linked, or are likely linked, to bin Laden´s complex network of terrorists. The account also outlines the elements of his international organization and details of its alliances and tactics, and address the challenges confronting U.S. intelligence in trying to crack it. | |||
