Pick of the Week :rb:
Tuesday 15 April - 9 - 10pm - BBC2 - Age of Terror - 1/4 - Terror International
In the first of this documentary series exploring major terrorist incidents over the last four decades, journalist Peter Taylor tells the story of the 1976 hijacking of an Air France airliner by Palestinians working with members of Germany's Baader-Meinhof gang - a crisis that was ended by a daring raid on Uganda's Entebbe airport. The programme intersperses dramatic reconstructions of key moments with interviews with hostages, former members of the terrorist groups and Israeli commandos who took part in the rescue mission. Reflecting on how Palestine is still a major cause of terrorism today, Taylor states that in order to tackle it, governments must: "Try to understand the underlying nature of terrorism, its wellsprings, its motivations. You achieve nothing by demonising."
