Cooley marshals a wealth of evidence to demonstrate the devastating
consequences of the alliance between the US government and radical
Islam - from the assassination of Sadat, the destabilization of
Algeria and Chechnya and the emergence of the Taliban, to the
bombings of the World Trade Center and the US embassies in Africa.
Cooley examines the crucial role of Pakistan's military
intelligence organization; uncovers China's involvement and its
aftermath; the extent of Saudi financial support; the role of
America's most wanted man, the guerrilla leader Osama bin Laden;
the BCCI connection; and the CIA's cynical promotion of drug
traffic in the Golden Crescent. This text seeks out the lessons to
be learned from this still unfolding drama. This revised edition
examines the events of September 11th 2001, Osama bin Laden's role
and the complex working of the Al Queda terror network. It also
covers the important events in Pakistan since the military coup of
October 1999 and the impact of this on Indo-Pakistani relations.
This should be of interest to anyone who wants to understand the
roots of the international crisis.
