[edit] 9/11

He is the author of 1000 Years for Revenge (2003) which is a broad survey of Al-Qaida operations in the US prior to 9/11 and Cover Up : What the Government Is Still Hiding About the War on Terror (2004). The later book concludes that Al-Qaida showed signs of launching the impending 9/11 attacks in 1995, but were able to evade arrest by exploiting the poor relations between the FBI and CIA and problems within their respective infrastructures. His newest book, entitled Triple Cross, and published in 2006, covers the Al Qaeda operative Ali Mohamed.
