On January 26, 1993, a young Palestinian man named Abdel Nasser
Zaben was arrested and incarcerated in New York City for kidnapping
and robbery. Just thirty days later, while he remained locked up,
radical Islamic fundamentalists detonated a bomb in the World Trade
Center. These two events, connected by common threads, signaled the
coming of jihad to America. From the seemingly insulated
environment of prison, this same young man, thought to have been
merely a common criminal, swore allegiance to Osama bin Laden and
began to convert other young minds to the cause. A dangerous
terrorist recruitment cell had been born. How did it happen?Through
the story of Abdel Nasser Zaben s recruitment efforts in prison,
"The Fertile Soil of Jihad" explores in vivid detail how the
American prison subculture fosters terrorism. Dunleavy shows how
Zaben carefully and knowingly selected the most likely candidates
for conversion to his cause. He reveals how Zaben used his
apprentice role in the prison chaplain s office as a cover for his
work and how prison resources were used in the service of
terrorism. This book yields invaluable insights for intelligence
and corrections professionals as well as informed citizens eager to
learn what progress the U.S. government is making in countering
terrorism.
