Now, nearly nine years later, Kohlmann has become one of the nation's leading consultants on terrorism and fundamentalist Islam. He finished law school, but continued his work with Emerson part time. Commuting back and forth from his apartment in the Drake building in Center City to Emerson's Washington offices, Kohlmann completed his well-received book Al-Qaida's Jihad in Europe, an authoritative account of al-Qaeda's spread from Afghanistan to the Balkans. He testifies as an expert witness on behalf of U.S. Defense Department prosecutors in military trials in Guantanamo, most recently in the trial of Canadian Omar Khadr, an accused mujahedeen who military prosecutors say killed a U.S. soldier during a battle at an al-Qaeda compound in Afghanistan in 2002.
