agent in demand with other western agencies. including the british. >> he was coming up with ideas for them and he was, in terms of being able proimprovise, being able to stay in character, he was perfect. >> storm says he's now on the cia's radar. they meet inside the scandic hotel in koeppcopenhagen. >> the british want to use morten storm then the cia comes on the scene. is this heard of before? >> no, i think it's very unusual, for everyone to almost sort of feed off morten, i think that's quite unusual. >> storm says the cia and the british exploit his terrorist links, sending him on trips to kenya to meet african jihadists. this is one of the places they used to meet, a nondescript mall in the heart of nairobi, in a hotel tucked way just inside

right next door to kenya's largest mosque. storm explains he delivered a bugged blackberry, destine for an al qaeda operative wanted for his suspected role in the 1998 u.s. embassy bombings that killed 224 people. three months later, that terrorist was dead. storm says because of him. but his most important mission is yet to come in yemen. >> there was just the time when anwar awlaki became an interesting person for them. >> to the cia? >> for the cia. >> anwar awlaki, american ep educated al qaeda leader. a personal friend from his day as a jihadist. al laukky h awlaki has been inspiring terrorist attacks around the world.

london, a double decker bus, leaving 5 52 dead. >> threat level to the uk has been raised to critical. >> one to blow up planes flying to the united states, the other to blow up buildings in canada. and in 2008, a deadly attack on the u.s. embassy in yemen. and storm says he can provide the cia something no one else can. access to awlaki, himself. he tells us the cia sent him on this dangerous spy mission. october 2008. a month after the embassy attack. to see awlaki. now hiding in a remote part of yemen. >> he's worried about security but he's also worried about people following me. >> the mission, give awlaki a laptop, solar panels, night vision goggles he'd requested.

some secretly implanted with spy software. then storm says he gives awlaki one more cia gift. $5,000. cash. >> he looked at me and he tapped his chest pocket where the $5,000 were, and he said, can we buy bullets and weapons? i said, yeah, of course you can. my handler in denmark, he said, you know what, you've just been tested and you just passed it because if i said no, he knew, anwar, that this money was from the intelligence and he knew that they're not allowed to sponsor or to pay for weapons and bullets. >> storm is loving his 007 life, but as he drives away from this meeting with awlaki, he is worried. >> the tables have turned. >> awlaki has grown more violent, and the world should be

afraid. >> anwar was wearing a green military camouflage jacket over his robe. he had a ceremonial dagger and revolver he's built. i tried not to look surprised. the preacher had become a fighter. >> he stays in touch with the radical cleric. they share an e-mail account. messages written, saved as drafts. read but never sent. avoiding, awlaki wrongly believes, spy agencies reading them. storm says the next visit awlaki is even more paranoid and tells him to tighten security. >> when i met anwar back in 2009, he instructed me to use encrypted message system holding mujahadin secrets. it was invented to create a

secure online communication between terrorists or al qaeda members all over the world. >> the message can be unscrambled and read. only by the person to whom the sender has given a code to unlock it. jihadi spy craft, soon to be vital in storm's most important mission yet. awlaki is fast rising up the cia's most wanted list, and storm believes he has the perfect plan to trap him. >> this is me, t -- >> using a european blond as bait. >> i hope you will be pleased with it. god willing.

muslims around the world. >> this is the voice of american-born cleric, anwar awlaki. in audio obtained exclusively by cnn. >> the majority of the people around us are disbelievers. >> he's talking to wealthy muslim donors, hoping they will give money to support al qaeda. but this skype call is much more than what it seems. this is spy craft in action.

morten storm says he's made this call to demonstrate allegiance to malikiallegiance. he doesn't know he's working on the other side for danish spies. >> whether we're talking about afghanistan or iraq. >> it's clear to the west that awlaki is a growing danger in infecting the minds of muslims everywhere. just months after the skype call, united states army major nidal hassan goes on a shooting ram papage in ft. hood, texas. hassan kills 14 fellow soldiers and calls awlaki his inspiration. they exchanged e-mails.

the cleric turned terror leader takes credit. his website reads, "nidal hasan is a hero." >> just one month later -- >> breaking news. >> awlaki sends the so-called underpants bomber to blow up northwest flight 253 as it lands in detroit christmas day 2009. >> a passenger tried to detonate some kind of explosive. >> the plot is foiled, but cia agents now know there is no time to lose. anwar awlaki is raging a relentless bloody war against americans, more than ever, storm says, the cia is realizing they need him. >> america as a whole has turned into a nation of evil. >> awlaki must be eliminated. but storm says his officers from british, danish, intelligence

agencies disagree about how to take out awlaki. controlling the plan means controlling storm. in a bizarre courtship, the spy agencies lavish attention on storm trying to win his loyalty. first up, the danish. wooing storm on behalf of the cia. >> we went to iceland, up to the blue lagoon, and we spend some time up there. >> you were kind of chilling out quite literally up there, right? >> yeah, we were. yeah. >> danish agents break all the rules, taking happy snaps with him. not to be outdone, the british take storm to sweden. >> they booked a four days team building trip. we had team building, we went dog sledding.

we went snowshoeing. i stayed in a very expensive room inside the ice hotel. >> storm says he ultimately chooses to work with the cia. which supports his plan to locate and assassinate awlaki by using an unsuspecting woman as bait. unbelievably, awlaki has asked storm to play matchmaker and find him a european blond to be his third wife. storm's search leads him to irena from croatia, a recent convert to islam who now calls herself amina. they chat on facebook. >> european blond, exactly what anwar wanted, and she asked me for anwar awlaki, could help who are to get married. >> the encrypted e-mails to storm shows he's hooked. "so far i'm interested. please update me on the sister

situation. if you could try to speed up your travel into yemen." through storm, awlaki and imina exchange encrypted e-mails. it's a match. they agree. they will meet at the bus station. it's storm's most important spy mission so far. he can't afford any mistakes. but almost immediately, he's disobeying the cia. according to storm, the american agents have a very specific plan. walk past this bakery. take amina to a specific cafe that they have under surveillance. they want the first meeting with amina here in this cafe. realizing it is selling beer, no place for devout muslim, storm without checking with his handlers changes the plan. he brings amina to a nearby

mcdonald o mcdonald's. shows her awlaki's notes on his computer. but the cia agents are angry. storm says they think he has gone rogue. >> again, i improvised for myself. >> aren't they supposed to be running you rather than you running them? >> in the ideal world, probably, yes. >> bottom line, the cia can't be picky. to locate and eliminate awlaki, they need storm. and they are willing to pay. if his plan works -- >> you get a quarter of a million dollars from the cia when amina crosses into yemen? >> that's correct. >> after seven weeks, storm sent back to vienna for another meeting with amina. the next step in the match making. he shows her this video from awlaki. >> this recording is done specifically for sister amina. the brother who's carrying this

recording is a trustworthy brother. >> what's her reaction when she's watching that video? >> she's full of joy and tears. you do really know him, she says. you do really know him. >> i hope you are well. >> then storm has her record a video for awlaki in return. >> it's me, amina, and i just want to tell you that right now i feel nervous and this is very awkward for me. >> awlaki wants a blond european wife. the plan has to work. storm convinces her to break muslim taboo and take off her head scarf. >> this is me whoithout the hea scarf so you can see my hair. coming up -- >> james bond. 007. clic
