For twenty years Robert Baer worked in the Middle East as an agent for the CIA's Directorate of Operations. In this fascinating two-part Channel 4 documentary series Robert Baer returns to investigate the rise of Western and female suicide bombers in a new sequel Cult of the Suicide Bomber II and finds out why the 'virus' of the cult of the suicide bomber has attracted a new generation of ever more deadly adherents, Westerners and women.

From the grim back streets of Beeston in Leeds - where the 7/7 bombers came from - to the Syrian capital Damascus, to the misery of the Gaza Strip, to the suffocating confines of the world's only jail for failed female suicide bombers, Baer uncovers the psychology and motivation of individual bombers.

  • I was a little depressed yesterday so i called a helpline. Turned out to be some bloke working in a call centre in Pakistan. Whenever i said i felt suicidal he asked me if i could drive a truck. Bastard !

  • They use suicide bomber because they don't have the military technology Israel and the US has.

    The allies landing troops on the beach of Normandy was a suicide attack too if you ask me.

    And what about the US dropping more bomb on the Vietnam that everybody dropped in world war 2 killing about 3.5 million people, isn't that terrorism? It sure was. The point of this

    was to terrorize the Vietnamese into submission.

  • @allah1100

    every video...you sure do like to run your mouth

  • The Sadness of those all, it took two nuclear bombs to stop the Japanese(who were two screws short of Islamic extremists, almost as delusional too) and bring them back to reality, however 1 nuke or 100 nukes wont stop Muslims extremists

  • you know why they so ready to join the "cult" of the suicide bomber,because they still occupied by the jews,have been for the last 60 years.

  • hw has he left islam,he is fighting for the liberation of palestine,it is so sad that people can call themselves muslim and then have no knowledge of their religeon,we are living in a time where there is fitna like a dark night.the fact that you call them terrorists shows me who brain washed you,the americans and europe,do you know what irhab means terror,allah tells us to terrorrise the kafir.

  • how can you be against islam but not muslims,muslims are the followers of islam.you have no knowledge of islam or world polotics,you proberly come from america,and watch cnn and all those great news channels,lol, it is so funny how anyone in this modern world could think america is good.that is brainwashing for you.

  • suicide in the quran is forbiden,if you are sad and kill yourself you going to hell,but in yourself you are allowed to play a role in you death directly or indirectly if it has benefit for islam and the mulims.look a the hadith of the boy and the king,sahih muslim book 42,hadith7148.and research inghimas fee aladuw.

  • yes i agree we must disapear if there must be peace,because we are the only ones that stand up against tyrants,like america and israel and the list goes on and on.why should we be peaceful,whe you occupy us and murder us on a daily basis.it would not make sense to let you just rape our women in jails,would it.you nonbelievers have just totally lost all sense of right and wrong.

  • @noracism11

    Watch the first series. He mentions that some Muslims see it as freedom fighting, and are ignorant of the fact that suicide in any shape or form is forbidden in the Quran.

    It's a battlefield tactic that takes advantage of the faith of often impoverished and uneducated middle-easterners.

  • anyone know where i can see part 2 and 3? I cant find it anywhere without having to pay for it...not even on bit torrent
