Where in the World Is Osama bin Laden?

About Where in the World Is Osama bin Laden?

A witty companion to the acclaimed documentary Where in the World Is Osama bin Laden?, from the Academy Award–nominated filmmaker and director of Super Size Me
 
A jittery father-to-be, Morgan Spurlock had a simple question: If OBL is behind 9/11 and all the ensuing worldwide chaos, then why can’t we just catch him? And furthermore, why is his message so compelling to so many people? So the intrepid Spurlock kissed his anxious wife goodbye and—armed with a complete lack of knowledge, experience, or expertise—set out to make the world safe and find the most wanted man on Earth.
 
After beefing up his basic knowledge of OBL, Islam, and the Global War on Terror—and learning how to treat “sucking chest wounds” in a “Surviving Hostile Regions” training course—he hits the Osama trail. He zigzags the globe, drawing ever closer to the heart of darkness near the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan, where OBL was rumored to be hiding. Along the way he interviews imams and princes, refugees and soldiers, academics and terrorists. He visits European ghettos where youth aspire to global jihad, breaks the Ramadan fast with Muslims in Cairo, rides in the bomb squad van in Tel Aviv, and writes his blood type on his Kevlar vest at a U.S. base outside of Kandahar. And then the fun really starts.

Where in the World Is Osama bin Laden? is a humorous, globe-spanning romp about terrorism and the conflict that cast a shadow across America and the world.
