Witness to Hate: Reporting on al Qaeda Video (DVD)

Witness to Hate: Reporting on al Qaeda. As Islamist extremists pumped bullets into BBC security correspondent Frank Gardner, he “looked into their faces and…saw pure hatred, ruthless hatred.” Fluent in Arabic, respectful toward Islam, and very at home in Saudi Arabia, Gardner had been reporting on al Qaeda activity when he and his cameraman were gunned down. In this ABC News program, Gardner recounts with quiet courage the events of that terrible day and the challenges he has faced along the road to partial recovery. For insights into anti-Western feelings in the Middle East and a vivid first-person account of reporting the war on terror, this video is not to be missed. (22 minutes).
