Linda Olson Osterlund speaks with Susan F. Hirsch about her book "In the Moment of Greatest Calamity: Terrorism, Grief, and a Victim's Quest for Justice."
Hirsch is an American cultural anthropologist who lost her husband in the 1998 Tanzanian Embassy bombing. One of the accused Embassy bombers is a "high-valued" detainee in Guantanamo and is scheduled for Tribunal. She plans to return to Africa for the tenth anniversary of the bombing this summer. In this interview she'll discuss why vengeance and unilateral military action are not solutions to terrorism.
