Cleared Title:

"TERROR NETWORKS"

* Title cleared through the Motion Picture Association of America

High Concept:

The Kingdom meets The Siege

*The plot and terrorist attack scenario of this 2007 Copyrighted screenplay became real with current world events in Mumbai, India and police agencies preparing for Mumbai-style attacks in America. This screenplay and eventual film is intended to empower individuals, communities and nations to unite against cowardly acts of terrorism. It’s about standing together to face fear. It’s about courage.

The alleged Ft. Hood shooter, a suspected home-grown terrorist, who killed 13 soldiers, and the discovery, in December 2009, of five DC/Northern, VA-based suspected home-grown jihadists, who allegedly sought al-Qaeda connections on the Internet, and traveled to Pakistan to train to fight against American soldiers overseas, screams out for the threat of future mass attacks in American to be taken seriously.
