Now find out what really goes on inside one of the world's most secretive government organizations...The National Security Agency.

Get an intimate look at the mission of the U.S. Department of State and its leader, Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton, as she juggles every major global issue facing the US. With rare and unprecedented access, National Geographic follows Secretary Clinton and her team around the globe, accompanying her on her first trip as secretary of state to the UN as well as to international hot spots such as Pakistan, Afghanistan, Jerusalem and Africa.

Even though they are frequently seen flanking presidential convoys in their trademark dark suits and sunglasses, little is truly known about the insulated world of the United States Secret Service. National Geographic delves deep into the inner workings of the secretive organization for an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at the upper echelons of national security.

With unprecedented access, National Geographic goes deep into the secret world of U.S. Special Operations and tells the story of this highly skilled, elite group of soldiers from the inside out. With roots traceable to the French and Indian War, the Special Forces military unit has evolved over several centuries to serve an integral role in the U.S. military campaign. Inside Special Forces follows these soldiers as they make their way from the training camp to the battlefield to face an unpredictable enemy in an unfamiliar land.

National Geographic goes inside one of the most perilous battlegrounds of the new war: Pakistan. Join a 14-point strike to capture alleged al Qaeda logistician Abu Zubaydah and follow the CIA's multi-national effort to capture alleged al Qaeda terror-broker Rashid Rauf before he can unleash a massive attack on US airliners.

Just days after the horrific attacks of 9/11, a team of seven CIA agents snuck into northern Afghanistan and began to lay the groundwork for war. Dubbed operation "Jawbreaker," their goal was to take out al Qaeda, find Osama bin Laden and kill him.
