FRONTLINE

In response to the terrorist attacks in London, over the next few nights
many PBS stations will be offering a rebroadcast of FRONTLINE's January
2005 report "Al Qaeda's New Front," which tells the story behind this
morning's bombings.

The film and accompanying Web site investigate the threat radical
jihadists pose to Western Europe, which is home to an estimated 18
million Muslims. Al Qaeda, once just a loose organization on the
continent, has morphed into a powerful ideological movement that is
inspiring some disenfranchised European Muslims.  Cells have been broken
up in the U.K., Germany, Italy, and Spain, but successful attacks have
been carried out in Madrid, Amsterdam, Istanbul, and now, London.

"This country has seen terrorism since the end of the 1960s," Sir David
Veness of Scotland Yard told FRONTLINE in what now seems like a
prescient warning. "Both domestic extremism and international terrorism
here on the streets of London.  What is different about this form of
terrorism is the unequivocal intention to cause mass murder ... without
warning in any form to the public."

Please check your local listings to find out when your PBS station will
be airing this program.  Or watch the entire film now streaming online
