The War on Freedom: How and Why America was Attacked, September 11, 2001
- Book Review,
by Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed, John Leonard


Barry Zwicker, Vision TV Insight, Feb. 2002
"The most complete book I know of, summarizing the relevant background and foreground intersecting upon the events of September 11..."


Peter Spengler, Contemporary Studies Review, Feb. 2002
Your excellent report goes deep into what really happened and what the American defense machinery had let happen.


Prof. John McMurtry, University of Ontario
This riveting and thoroughly documented study is a ‘must’ resource ... provides the detailed documentation in a definitive and masterful record.


Book Description
A disturbing exposé of the American government’s hidden agenda, before and after the Sept.11, 2001 terrorist attacks. A wide range of documents show U.S. officials knew in advance of the "Boeing bombing" plot, yet did nothing. Did the attacks fit in with plans for a more aggressive U.S. foreign policy? Nafeez Ahmed examines the evidence, direct and circumstantial, and lays it before the public in chilling detail: how FBI agents who uncovered the hijacking plot were muzzled, how CIA agents trained Al Qaeda members in terror tactics, how the Bush family profited from its business connections to the Bin Ladens, and from the Afghan war. A "must read" for anyone seeking to understand America’s New War on Terror.

War on Freedom: How and Why America was Attacked, September 11th 2001

FROM THE PUBLISHER

In The War on Freedom, brilliant young British scholar Nafeez M. Ahmed writes with cool, factual understatement of a story that begs comprehension: compelling evidence that the U.S. government fosters terrorism, as the perfect pretext to justify an aggressive foreign policy - up to and including the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon.

Astonishing as this thesis may seem, the thoughtful reader will find that it explains many obvious puzzles:

How could our intelligence services fail to thwart such an ambitious project?

Why did officials immediately point the finger at Bin Laden - yet refuse to release the evidence? Were they loath to reveal their complicity, if they were monitoring the 'Boeing Bombing' plot all along, but let it happen?

Why did the White House ram through legislation immediately after the attacks curtailing the Bill of Rights and the Freedom of Information Act?

Ahmed's extensive research also brings to light some less well-known puzzles.
