A Major Documentary…

"First In" is the first documentary detailing this war between the CIA and bin Laden. Directors, CIA case officers and military leaders will have the opportunity to tell their story, but also, we will ask very high-level politici-an to express themselves (requests will be sent to G.W. Bush and Barack Obama, supported by CIA press officers). We will be in touch with the Pakistani and Afghan secret services too. Many of the officers most deeply involved with the hunt and killing of bin Laden have been reluctant to share their stories until now. There was simply no benefit for these quiet professionals, their families, or the agencies they served to be in the public eye. But they have collectively decided that now is the time – to go on record and tell their stories, before it’s too late. As far as possible, we will permit testimonies of those who dealt directly with the ex-Al Qaeda leader. This story is also a way to better understand current issues in the Middle East. The roots of the war waged by the Western powers against terrorism in Iraq and Syria were in the Al-Qaeda camps. It was there that, those who would become, years later, the leaders of the Islamic State, were trained. When History resonates with the news.
