The Fishkill Mission was Tony Martin's first of his six books. It
was written fifteen years before the World Trade Center
destruction, about an attack on a small part of Texas by a four-man
team of vengeful Cuban terrorists. They are in our country for less
than three days, kill over 100,000 people, destroy the economic
viability of a region of over 75,000 square miles for decades to
come, terrorize an entire nation and completely alter and redirect
the political and defense priorities and the financial expenditures
of the entire government structure at all levels; and, we never
knew who they were or why they attacked us. Tony Martin asked
several of his friends, relatives, and even an author's agent, to
review it for him in 1986, and to the person, they said it was
simply too frightening and asked him not to publish it for fear of
giving ideas to terrorists. He acquiesced to their pleas, and wrote
and published five other books over the next fifteen years. He dug
the book out in 2000 to update it to reflect the political
realities of the 1990's such as the fall of the USSR and the Gulf
War, but again, he did not publish it. Since writing the book,
Martin has been responsible for public water supplies in two
different communities totaling well over 100,000 people, and the
book reflects his long-standing belief that our life support
infrastructure system exposes us to small unit attacks by our
enemies with the greatest ease, the greatest long-term impact and
the least probability of discovery or apprehension. Martin actually
carried out the attacks described in the book using sand-filled
containers and a camera, to ensure that the timetables and
undetected access were possible andrealistic. Sadly, they were.
