| 500 | |a Why Iraq became the center of the GLOBAL JIHAD for Al Qaeda and its terror organizations associates? Will the evacuation of the allied forces in Iraq reduces the terror actions against the western world by Al Qaeda? Iraq is only a suitable battle ground for conducting terror activity against the infidels. Ossama Bin Laden, prepared the grounds for, what seemed to him at that time, a possible second war against Saddam Houssein by the United States. For this purpose, he established his infrastructure in Northern Iraq. The book is dealing with the situation in the world, AFTER the evacuation of the allied forces from Iraq. Almost seven years after the 911 terrorist attacks in the United States, Islamic terrorism is still a dominant force in the world: ? Ossama bin Laden and his associates around the world have succeeded in carrying out large-scale bombings in the UK, France, Spain, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, Indonesia, and elsewhere. | ||
| 500 | |a ? Terrorism is a daily reality in Iraq and in Israel, with the generous assistance of Iran and Syria, which continue to sponsor, host, and encourage terrorism in the Middle East. ? Al-Qaeda is still alive and kicking, planning still more attacks. Bin Laden, Abu Massab al-Zarqawi, and most of Al-Qaeda's senior operatives have not been apprehended yet; they enjoy both popular and financial support from Muslims around the world; and they are determined to and capable of carrying out further assaults against the West, Israel, and moderate Muslims. Today, virtually no country is immune from Islamic terrorism. This fact may seem puzzling, in light of the vast and diverse resources the free world, and especially the United States, has allocated in recent years in order to defeat Islamic terrorism. It is this puzzle or paradox that has driven me to come out of the shadows and write this book. I have served for more than 40 years in Israel's leading intelligence services. | ||
| 500 | |a Retiring from the secret services at a rank equivalent to Brigadier General, I have devoted my career to combating Islamic terrorism -- by collecting and analyzing intelligence, directing covert operations in the field, and collaborating with intelligence organizations worldwide. In writing this book, I have benefited from another source of insight. I was born in Iraq in 1934 and spent 16 years in Basra, before escaping to Israel in 1950. In Iraq, I became socialized into the Arab culture, language and mentality -- assets that have helped me understand the phenomenon of Islamic fundamentalism, and its birthplace -- the Arab Middle East. Such insights guided me in one of my previous works, titled In the Eyes of the Arabs -- | ||
| 500 | |a The Six days War, written about the strategies of the Arabs that led to their defeat in the Six Days War of 1967. My main argument in this book is that the counter-terrorist measures that have been deployed so far (ever after 9/11), especially by the United States, have been deficient and partial. A prominent example is the 9/11 Commission Report, published in July 2004. The report, undoubtedly, has many good points, but it also suffers from significant shortcomings: ? The office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), a new body that was created at the report's recommendation, has little practical authority vis-a-vis the big established organizations in the defense, intelligence and policy community. ? Gloves-on treatment of the Al-Qaeda-Saudi connection. | ||
| 500 | |a It seems that the committee tried hard to be politically-correct, and refrained from delineating stringent measures against Saudi-backed institutions and associations that support (financially, morally and otherwise) hostile terrorists actions. ? Vague and theoretical guidelines concerning the dissemination of critical material between the CIA and the FBI -- recognized as a crucial failure regarding the 9/11 attacks. ? Half-way measures on immigration. With all due concern to 715175981 | ||
