An investigation in two parts into terrorism
Part 1: Conspiracy
For the last decade, international terrorism has developed and spread, touching everyone, everywhere. Baader-Meinhof, the Japanese Red Army, Carlos the Jackal ...they have all become familiar names. Their operations have involved nearly every capital; from Mogadishu to Vienna, Dacca, London, Paris, Entebbe and Tokyo, the stories of bombings, murders, of hi-jackings and seemingly mindless and random acts of terrorism fill our headlines. But just how random are they?
In Part 1 of this special investigation, Tom Mangold reveals the connection between armed revolutionaries worldwide, who have united as a disciplined, co-ordinated and ruthless network of conspiracy.
(Part 2 at 9.25 pm)

Part 2: Conspirators
Who are they? What do they want? And who runs Terror International? In part 2, Tom Mangold focuses on the men and women who plan and execute global terrorism, discovers their long-term aims and how and where they are trained and financed. The trail leads to the Middle East and to the man who controls and masterminds Terror International; a man of such mystery that only one smudgy photograph is known to exist of him, yet he is a man supported by revolutionaries who have never even met him, and financed by a budget of millions of dollars.
