The USS Cole was bombed in a suicide attack in October 2000 in Aden, Yemen, killing 17 and wounding 39. Several Guantanamo captives are alleged to have produced, or played a role in the production of a jihadist training video (or videos) which documents the bombing and possibly its planning. During Ali Hamza al-Bahlul's Guantanamo military commission the video he was charged with producing was reported to have been 2 hours long. In addition to material specifically focused around the bombing it was reported to have contained images and sequences of suffering Muslims, as justification.
