GANGS OF IRAQ
GANGS OF IRAQ takes a hard look at how the four-year training effort has failed and how these
coalition-trained forces have themselves been infiltrated by various sectarian militias. While President
Bush's new "surge" strategy is sending thousands of new troops to Iraq to help control the violence
convulsing the country, the effort to stand up Iraqi forces and go after the militias remains a centerpiece
of America's strategy. But can it work?

SECURITY VERSUS LIBERTY: THE OTHER WAR
Following 9/11, the U.S. government adopted some controversial new tactics intended to prevent future
terrorist attacks, including warrantless eavesdropping on Americans' phone calls, secret demands for records
under the Patriot Act, and FBI sting operations against people thought to be potential terrorists.
The Bush Administration contends these tactics have helped to save American lives, but critics say they have
severely damaged our individual liberties.

THE BROTHERHOOD
The Muslim Brotherhood is a secretive, international movement dedicated to the spread of a fundamental
version of Islam throughout the world - but is it also offering support and encouragement to terrorists?
Award winning Newsweek journalists Mark Hosenball and Michael Isikoff investigate a movement that preaches
peaceful co-existence but also supports suicide bombings in Israel and offers inspiration for many violent
jihadi groups.
