BEHIND ENEMY LINESNorwegian journalist Paul Refsdal risked his life to become the first Westerner to film behind Taliban lines in Afghanistan, and see the fight between the allied forces and the insurgency from the Taliban's viewpoint.Now Dateline brings you his remarkable story, as Paul witnesses several ambushes of US troops on the Khyber Pass, and films celebrations over the death of a US soldier.But he also captures a human side of the Taliban, as insurgents relax, pray, eat together, and look after the children of Taliban commander, Dawran.Paul comes under threat himself too, as a US gunship attacks and he's kidnapped by one of the Taliban group which took him in.GROUND ZERO MOSQUENothing stirs passion in New York more than the future of the World Trade Center site, and plans for a mosque a few blocks away are proving one of the most controversial issues yet.Video journalist Sophie McNeill meets locals, who don't hold back on their views about infiltration of America by Muslims, the threat of more terror attacks, and the insult they feel the mosque will be against those who died.Those behind the plans say they're stunned by the response. They say the building will also be a community centre that will promote tolerance, and isn't even visible from the Ground Zero site.RENEWABLE HOME'One man's trash is another man's treasure' as they say... and no one believes that more than Luiz and Edna Toledo in Brazil.Their house is literally made of rubbish, and at a fraction of the cost of a normal building.Dateline's Giovana Vitola gets a guided tour of the bottle walls, bamboo roof, floors made from marble waste...and their unique take on interior design.It's not the first recycled house the Toledos have built and they have plans for a whole condominium development. International current affairs hosted by George Negus. (An SBS Production) CC WS |
