OK, Osama bin Laden is dead, but what does that mean for America's War on Terror? Does it weaken Al Qaida? What are the overall strategic implications of bin Laden's death? I wanted to know the answers to these questions so I spoke with a renowned expert on terrorists and terrorism, Dr. Adam Lankford, who is also an assistant professor of Criminal Justice at the University of Alabama. Dr. Lankford is the author of Human Killing Machines: Systematic Indoctrination in Iran, Nazi Germany, Al Qaeda, and Abu Ghraib, a book which examines the recruitment and psychology of suicide terrorists.
