Trailer for In Their Sights
The 'kill-capture' campaign is one of the most controversial and secretive strategies of the Afghan conflict. This year alone 11,000 insurgents have been killed or captured. Its proponents claim that it has been successful, but several missions have gone horribly wrong, killing local leaders and civilians. This doc investigates how the covert strategy was developed, how it is being implemented and asks the question: is it doing more harm than good?
