Tom Ridge on Bin Laden Intel

The Takeaway

Over two terabytes of information have been extracted from Osama bin Laden’s hard drives, taken during the raid on his compound last Sunday. According to Tom Donilon, President Obama’s national security adviser, the amount of information could fill a small college library. We talk with Tom Ridge, former head of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security; former governor of Pennsylvania; and current president and CEO of Ridge Global, an international security and risk management firm based in Washington, D.C., about the impact that the new intel will have on our national security and foreign policy.
