The War On Terror

This is an excellent book.The writer won a 2007 Pulitzer Prize for this book.Lawrence Wright's story is based on 5 years of research and is a narrative history of the events leading up to 9-11.He tells his story from both sides outlining the story of the 2 leaders of Al Quaeda and the FBI counterterrorism chief,John O'Neill.If you don't understand the real threat we face from Islamofascism after you read this book you never will.This book shows us the reality that we are facing.The War On Terror is not just a bumper sticker,it is real.This book proves it.
I recommend it highly.

Must read

Thoroughly researched and comprehensive, this fascinating "documentary" is well written in an engaging prose that makes one feel as thought one is reading a spy novel. The characters are well developed and 3-dimensional. If you are interested in the political state of the middle east and the history that has led to it, then this is a "must read".

The Looming Tower: Al-Qaeda and the Road to 9/11

Anyone out there confused about the Middle East, Al Qaeda, Jihad, Fatwas, where bin Laden came from and how he got his power? Well, this is the book for you! It is highly readable. A page turner and the only confusion for me is in the miriad of Arabic names and trying to keep everyone straight but it is a real eye opener to this intense world situation and how it all came about.

Know your enemy

Extremely well written, readable overview of the organization and events that culminated on 9/11. Tremendous research and many interviews are combined with a lot of previously gathered information and presented so that the reader feels enlightened. We underestimated their abilities for too long, but should not overestimate them now. It's time to get the real bad guys and stop the Iraq disaster.

Read This First

This book should be the first stop for anyone wishing to become acquainted with the clashes of philosophies and wills that have turned our known world upside down. Readable and well researched, I am hoping for more.
