About this episode
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was born in the country of Jordan. He was a petty criminal and thug early in his life. He would become radicalized and go to prison to build his dream of an "Islamic" state. Upon release from inside he had many fighters and got seed money from Osama Bin Laden to built a training camp where he would begin to sow the seeds of his depravity becoming one of the most wanted terrorists in the world.
