How a Double Agent Fooled the CIA ( English subtitle )
a month ago by terradragon to c/pakistan
This EON investigative documentary traces the rise of Dr. Humam Khalil al-Balawi, better known online as Abu Dujana al-Khorasani, and reconstructs the operation that culminated in the December 30, 2009 attack on Camp Chapman in Khost, Afghanistan. Through declassified material, historical reporting, expert context and exclusive interviews from North Waziristan, the documentary follows Humam’s journey from Jordan to Pakistan’s tribal regions and examines how he convinced both Jordan’s General Intelligence Directorate (GID) and the CIA that he had penetrated Al-Qaeda’s senior leadership.
The doc is really well made, with some interesting political analysis. Worth a watch!
