Book excerpt: When you hear the word interrogator, do you imagine a room with blinding lights and cold cement walls, grim-faced men in dark suits, and trays of sinister instruments for torture? You might be surprised to find the true story of American interrogators is not even close to these stereotypes. Join James Rosone as he describes how Dinner with a Terrorist led to uncovering secrets from some of the darkest, most evil men in the world. While serving in Iraq, Rosone walked through the valley of the shadow of death, endured unimaginable psychological strain, and saw and heard things that no human should ever be exposed to. He uncovered Al Qa'ida plots against America and directly saved American and Iraqi lives. He fought a military cover-up, Iraqi corruption, and mastered the art of interrogating through simple conversations and non-coercive techniques. Dinner with a Terrorist shows firsthand what really happens overseas in those interrogator booths. Find out how one man made a difference in the world, and why interrogators are so important to the American public, whether they know it or not.

Book excerpt: A New York City homicide detective races against the clock to stop a terrorist attack on a world-famous Catskills resort during the Passover holiday When NYPD lieutenant Barry Wintraub starts investigating the murder of a Jewish Defense League member, he stumbles on a plot to blow up the New Prospect resort in the Catskills, where over one thousand of Israel’s top financial supporters will be celebrating Passover with their families and the guest of honor, an important Israeli general.

Download or read book Dining with al Qaeda written by Hugh Pope and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following in the footsteps of Sir Richard Burton and Lawrence of Arabia, Hugh Pope presents his modern-day explorations, mined from more than three decades, of the politics, religion, and aspirations of Muslim peoples to show how the Middle East is much more than a monolithic "Islamic World." An Oxford-educated scholar of the Middle East and acclaimed former foreign correspondent for The Wall Street Journal, Pope has lived and worked in two dozen countries throughout the region. In eighteen revealing chapters, he delves into the amazingly varied cultures ranging from the south of Sudan to Afghanistan and from Islamabad to Istanbul. His probing and often perilous journeys--at one point during a meeting with an al-Qaeda missionary, Pope is forced to quote Koranic verse to argue against his own murder--provide an eye-opening look at diverse societies often misportrayed by superficial reporting and "why they hate us" politics. With intimate and personal anecdotes arising out of experiences from war fronts to bazaars to the palaces of kings, Pope weaves a rich narrative that embraces art, food, poetry, customs, and the competing histories of the Middle East. Merging the traditions of the classics Balkan Ghosts and From Beirut to Jerusalem, Dining with al-Qaeda illuminates an infintely complex part of the world. With U.S. foreign policy aiming to engage more construvtively with Muslim nations, this lyrical book of adventures collects some of the truly important untold stories of our times.

Book excerpt: Terrorist Inc. is a tale of the dangers and enemies lurking near us: enemies who profit by keeping war, social unrest, and terrorism alive. Multinational corporations who control energy, medicine, communications, weapons, and finance industries that, out of greed, sell out to terrorists are now on our avenging radar. Hamilton Kent Jr., also known as Sook, and his teams of daring avengers are comprised of several generations from America and Asia. The team starts off avenging Sooks father who was murdered by an American defense contractor with the complicit blind eye of career US government officials. Over time Sook brings rancorous retribution to other evildoers while wreaking havoc on global terrorists. As you follow the quest, you should understand why the rich and powerful get away with murder every day and governments allow it. Many will discover nothing is easy; and waiting on retirement, supporting terrorist, or betraying the trust of your country may be painful, if not fatal. There is pleasure in revenge! The silent majority may be silent, but we are no longer docile or defenseless.
Download or read book Targeted Killings written by Claire Finkelstein and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2012-03-01 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The war on terror is remaking conventional warfare. The protracted battle against a non-state organization, the demise of the confinement of hostilities to an identifiable battlefield, the extensive involvement of civilian combatants, and the development of new and more precise military technologies have all conspired to require a rethinking of the law and morality of war. Just war theory, as traditionally articulated, seems ill-suited to justify many of the practices of the war on terror. The raid against Osama Bin Laden's Pakistani compound was the highest profile example of this strategy, but the issues raised by this technique cast a far broader net: every week the U.S. military and CIA launch remotely piloted drones to track suspected terrorists in hopes of launching a missile strike against them. In addition to the public condemnation that these attacks have generated in some countries, the legal and moral basis for the use of this technique is problematic. Is the U.S. government correct that nations attacked by terrorists have the right to respond in self-defense by targeting specific terrorists for summary killing? Is there a limit to who can legitimately be placed on the list? There is also widespread disagreement about whether suspected terrorists should be considered combatants subject to the risk of lawful killing under the laws of war or civilians protected by international humanitarian law. Complicating the moral and legal calculus is the fact that innocent bystanders are often killed or injured in these attacks. This book addresses these issues. Featuring chapters by an unrivalled set of experts, it discusses all aspects of targeted killing, making it unmissable reading for anyone interested in the implications of this practice.
Download or read book The Little Terrorist written by Sheila Schwartz and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2001-05-03 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a story of family love and loss, joy and tragedy, set against a background of contemporary terrorism. It is particularly relevant today. The heroine, Elizabeth Stern, is an affluent pediatric surgeon, whose husband and child are killed in the Athens Airport massacre, at the end of their vacation there. The little terrorist is Nadja, a little girl, the sole survivor of an exploding automobile, who is brought into the doctors operating room, in upstate New York, after Elizabeth pulls herself together enough to return to work. Elizabeth functions like an automaton, devoting her life completely to her medical work, until she sees in Nadja a resemblance to her own daughter, and the girl becomes more than just another patient to her. She vows to save the girl, especially because she had no opportunity to save her own child. Gradually she begins to love Nadja, fantasizing that nobody will come for the girl and she will be able to take her home, put her into her daughters room, and have someone to love again. The antagonist (initially) and love interest is David Hashemi, an FBI agent of Lebanese background, who is assigned to the hospital because the FBI has discovered that the same plastique that blew up the World Trade Center was in the car that exploded. At first, Elizabeth is hostile to him. She does not like the FBI, resents their campus harassment during the Vietnam War, is horrified by the WACO incinerations, and fears that they will take Nadja away from the hospital. Gradually, against her will, Elizabeth falls in love with David, as she finds that he is a good man; noble, caring, and brave, who needs love as much as she does. The major figures at the hospital are :1) Clifford Grubman, the Hospital President, who is romantically interested in Elizabeth and 2) Molly Quinn, Elizabeths assistant nurse, who is Elizabeths best friend and forces her to stay alive after the Athens massacre. The FBI remains at the hospital to keep Nadja under surveillance while waiting for her to regain consciousness, so that they can ask her about the cars destination. Certain that a backup team will come to replace the people blown up in the car, Hashemi says that it is essential to find the target to be bombed. Nadja is also under surveillance by other terrorists, who are hidden around the hospital and want to make sure that she does not divulge any information to the Americans. During the following weeks, there are a number of dramatic confrontations. Hospital personnel and FBI agents are killed in their attempts to protect the girl. Hashemi decides that she must be moved and she and a nurse, Molly, are taken over night to Elizabeths house. Dr. Grubman is tortured and murdered when he can not divulge where Nadja is taken, when shes moved from the hospital. However, before she can be moved again, she is kidnapped, Molly is injured and another FBI agent is killed. Interrogating a woman arrested in a raid, Hashemi discovers that Nadja is to be used as a human bomb, like a kamikaze pilot or a suicide bomber, and that the target is the U. S. President, who will be arriving at Stewart Airport to pay a visit to Franklin Roosevelts legendary house in Hyde Park. Hashemi tells Elizabeth that she must accept Nadjas inevitable death and forbids Elizabeth to come to the airport on the day of the confrontation. They quarrel violently about this and that morning, as soon as he is gone, Elizabeth drives herself to Stewart Airport. When she sees Nadja out on the tarmac, she runs toward her, determined to save her. In the ensuing conflagration at Stewart Airport, the gang of terrorists is captured, Nadja and Elizabeth are saved, but Hashemi loses a leg running to protect them. He is angry and bitter and irrationally blames Elizabeth and Nadja for his loss. He is a hero, will be decorated and will be given a desk job by the FBI, but he is, as might be expected, inconsolable. Although Hashem

(unabridged edition) Our most loved and hated President after Kennedy and before Obama, Ronnie struggles to defeat the ‘Evil Empire’ and not lose his mind to Alzheimer’s dementia. Can he still trust Bill Casey and George Bush, George Shultz, Selwa Roosevelt and Mike Deaver? Can Ronnie find out who's pulling his strings? A fervent anti-Communist and Nazi hater praised by his wife Nancy and ultra-conservatives, groomed by Bechtel Corporation since 1950 and sold StarWars by Dick Cheney and Paul Nitze during the most scandal-ridden presidency in American history, daughter Patti, college students and flower children despised Reagan for supporting the Vietnam War and Contra death squads and felt the Reagan-Bush Administration was run by Nazis. As it turns out, it was. This historical novel documents the foreign policy, national security and monetary policies of the Reagan-Bush Administration were run by Nazis thru the life of character Reinhard Gehlen, Hitler’s chief of Foreign Armies East intelligence, whom Dulles hired to run and train CIA as Freikorps Nazi deathsquad torturers, terrorists and assassins who then trained the Contras ...that Gehlen was later handled by Bill Casey (Ronnie's campaign manager) then George Bush (Ronnie's vice president) to fight, exaggerate and invent the Cold War in order to capture the Russian Baku oil fields. Based on autobiographies of the Reagan family, Cabinet, and White House Staff, the 650-page book includes a 250-page epilog of documentation and a 50-pg researchers' index, footnotes, and an extensive appendix including charts from: Staff Report, Committee on Banking, Currency & Housing, House of Representatives, 94th Congress, 2d session, Aug. 1976 -- Federal Reserve Directors, a Study of Corporate & Banking Influence. The charts trace from 1913 to present the family dynasties of the private owners and interlocking directorate of the Federal Reserve Bank and other G-8 central banks (the World Order and New World Order) whom Bill Casey, George Shultz, the Bushes, bin Ladens, Thyssens, Rockefellers, Rothschilds, Browns, Harrimans and Reinhard Gehlen worked for and against whose family ancestors the American Revolution was fought and whose family decendents today continue to dominate the financial, political, economic, and bailout and foreclosure landscape with financial terrorism. Additionally, the historical novel follows the family dynasties of the private owners of the interlocking directorate of the Fed/G8 including Bank of England and Bundesbank and other central banks involved in the American Revolution of 1776, the American Civil War, the depressions in the late 1800s and early 1900s, the founding of the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank in 1913, WWI, the financing of the Bolshevik party from New York and thru Ruskombank which supplied U.S. technology and weapons and military vehicles to communist Russia who supplied them to the Viet Cong to kill Americans. Appendices also document the previously hypothesized money-issuing class that prints and owns our money that rules the upper class, middle class, working class, and unemployed classes. The appendix also includes documentation of the Clinton-era involvement with HUD corruption when Bill was Governor and Hillary was a HUD attorney. HUD sold billions of dollars of foreclosed properties in East L.A. at ten cents on the dollar to the Fed-founded Dillion-Read bank. Ronnie was advised about the marriage of the oil and illegal drug industries, and the case by the European Union and Central and South American countries against Reynolds Tobacco for laundering heroin and cocaine profits with Camel Cigarettes.

Download or read book Targeting Top Terrorists written by Bryan C. Price and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When President Barack Obama announced the assassination of Osama bin Laden, many Americans hoped the killing of al-Qaida’s leader would sound the death knell for the organization. Since 9/11, killing and capturing terrorist leaders has been a central element in U.S. counterterrorism strategy. This practice, known as leadership decapitation, is based on the logic that removing key figures will disrupt the organization and contribute to its ultimate failure. Yet many scholars have argued that targeted killings are ineffective or counterproductive, questioning whether taking out a terror network’s leaders causes more problems than it solves. In Targeting Top Terrorists, Bryan C. Price offers a rich, data-driven examination of leadership decapitation tactics, providing theoretical and empirical explanations of the conditions under which they can be successful. Analyzing hundreds of cases of leadership turnover from over two hundred terrorist groups, Price demonstrates that although the tactic may result in short-term negative side effects, the loss of top leaders significantly reduces terror groups’ life spans. He explains vital questions such as: What factors make some terrorist groups more vulnerable than others? Is it better to kill or capture terrorist leaders? How does leadership decapitation compare to other counterterrorism options? With compelling evidence based on an original dataset along with an in-depth case study of Hamas, Targeting Top Terrorists contributes to scholarship on terrorism and organizational theory and provides insights for policy makers and practitioners on some of the most pressing debates in the field.
