A disturbing expose of the American government's hidden agenda, before and after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. A wide range of documents show US officials knew in advance of the 'Boeing bombing' plot, yet did nothing. Did the attacks fit in with plans for a more aggressive US foreign policy? Nafeez Ahmed examines the evidence, direct and circumstantial, and lays it before the public in chilling detail: how FBI agents who uncovered the hijacking plot were muzzled, how CIA agents trained Al Qaeda members in terror tactics, how the Bush family profited from its business connections to the Bin Ladens, and from the Afghan war. A 'must read' for anyone seeking to understand America's New War on Terror.… (more)

This book is an expose on the American 'War Against Terror'. Focusing on what was known about the run up to the attack on the World Trade Centre and then on who stood to gain by the aftermath, this is a powerful indictment of the US Government.The overall conclusion of the book, that the attack on the WTC was known about, but no attempt was made to stop it is difficult to swallow, but the aftermath, with the special treatment that the Saudis associated with Osama Bin Laden is easier to understand.So was it all a conspiracy? I don't know, but this book is well written, easy to read and damning of many of those involved. (

This book proves everything you already knew but didn't want to hear: 9/11 only happened because Bush and Cheney were in charge. It also explains other great lies such as Pearl Harbor, the Gulf of Tonkin, the Lusitania,... Nobody is stupid enough to attack the mightiest nation in the world, so if they want to go to war (and we all know how much they love war) they must attack themselves. Yet, most people remain ignorant of this fact. Even the other guy who wrote a review of this book (I gess he is American) didn't want to believe it. That's a shame. (
