In a five-part series, VICE founder Suroosh Alvi travels the world to investigate the origins and impact of the world's deadliest terrorist organizations: al Qaeda, al Shabaab, Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan, Boko Haram and the Islamic State.

In the series’ third episode, Suroosh travels to Pakistan – where he spent many summers growing up – to trace the roots of Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan. As Pakistan’s umbrella organization for the Taliban, the group has engaged in ruthless terror campaigns that have killed tens of thousands in Karachi and beyond.

Suroosh trails the TTP while meeting attack survivors in schools and mosques, riding along in counter-terrorism night raids and watching a bomb unit dismantle a TTP roadside trap. And, while investigating the TTP’s impact, he also explores whether or not Pakistan’s police are blurring moral lines in their fight against the group.

Exploring the binary universe of the war on terror – good versus evil, us versus them – he takes us behind the curtain to show us the cycle of violence Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan has left behind, while helping answer a fundamental question: is there an end in sight?
