The second investigation, Turning The Terrorists, looks at how South East Asia - long al-Qaeda's recruiting, training and planning base - has been successful in fighting the international terrorist threat. The region became al-Qaeda's new Afghanistan, attracting jihadis from all over the world, including the UK. The strategy is to hit the terrorists hard but also to persuade them to change sides and help the authorities defeat their former comrades. The result has been the rolling up of hundreds of members of Jemaah Islamiya (JI), the al-Qaeda-linked terrorist organisation responsible for the Bali bombings. Watch using FLASH movie player format
