Product Description

In two previous books, Osama's Revenge and The Al Qaeda Connection, seasoned investigative reporter Paul Williams revealed the alarming potential for nuclear terrorism on U.S. soil and the sinister connections among organized crime, illegal immigrants, and al Qaeda. Now, Williams broadens his focus beyond al Qaeda to provide readers with newly uncovered information on terrorist activities in Pakistan, Iran, Iraq, other Muslim countries--and our neighbor Canada! What emerges is a harrowing picture of international terrorist activities, all aimed at the destruction of the United States and the collapse of the Western world. This cataclysm will usher in "the Day of Islam," the dream of radical Muslims to see all of humankind fall in submission before the throne of Allah. Based on the "forgotten testimony" of the FBI's "Confidential Source One," as well as other sources, Williams first presents evidence of Osama Bin Laden's purchase of highly enriched uranium in Sudan and nuclear devices from the Chechens and the Russian Mafia. He then offers further information on the workings of Pakistani scientists and technicians from the A. Q. Khan Research Facility to maintain and upgrade al Qaeda's "bespoke nukes" (with explosive yields in excess of ten kilotons) for the "American Hiroshima." This information comes with empirical proof that should dispel any doubts that these weapons not only have been developed but have also been forward-deployed from the seaport at Karachi to strategic locations within the Western world. Keeping the focus on Pakistan, he predicts a nightmarish scenario if President Pervez Musharref should be overthrown and his arsenal of sixty-eight nuclear weapons falls into the hands of radical mullahs. Williams also examines the role of the Iranians both in sponsoring terrorism and in planning the American Hiroshima. In addition, he uncovers many unreported and startling accounts of the terrorist activities of Hezbollah in America and presents evidence that the marriage between Hezbollah and al Qaeda has been consummated. Finally, he presents intelligence showing that grave threats to America come, not from just our southern border, but from Canada and its amazingly open policies regarding radical Islam. The greatest threat of all, he concludes, comes from within --not only from the radical mosques within every major American city but also the Islamic paramilitary compounds in rural areas throughout the country, including Islamberg in New York State, where new recruits are trained for the great jihad against the United States under the very nose of FBI and Homeland Security officials.

Sure to be controversial, this shocking exposé sends a wake-up to Americans lulled into a false sense of security in the post-9/11 era.

From Publishers Weekly
Islamic Jihadists have replaced the Soviets in the American nightmare of nuclear annihilation, and journalist/author Williams is back to report that such a scenario is closer at hand than one (or one's government) might think. Picking up where his last few titles left off (2006's Dunces of Doomsday, '05's The Al Qaeda Connection, '04's Osama's Revenge), Williams reveals the underlying narrative of news updates on terrorist activity, tying isolated acts to bin Laden's overall strategy to carry out an "American Hiroshima." Among profiles of purported Al Qaeda supporters (including Venezuela's Hugo Chavez and Brazil's Lula de Silva), Williams examines interesting items like bin Laden's alleged location(a small village in Pakistan's Northwest Frontier); Al Qaeda's purchase of a nuclear "suitcase bomb," a Soviet leftover; and the role of Pakistan's Interservice Intelligence in the beheading of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl (allegedly investigating nuclear trafficking between Al Qaeda and a Pakistani scientist). Though absorbing, Williams' approach reduces the proponents of Islamic jihad to violent, irrational stereotypes rather than exploring their worldview. A noteworthy guide to the workings of Islamic terrorism, this volume's colorful style obscures its serious intent.

Customer Reviews

Well researched and utterly believable
After reading this book, my concerns about nuclear terrorism and the infiltration of Islamofascist operatives into this country are renewed. The author presents his statements clearly and knowledgeably and backs them up with extensive footnoting. For every person who says the premise of this book is fanciful, who would have thought flying jetliners into highrises or blowing up trucks full of fertilzer and diesel in front of government buildings were anything but science fiction prior to the events themselves?

Of particular interest is the information presented on the Latin American connection with Al Qaeda, specifically Brazil, Venezuela, Trinidad/Tobago and Guyana. Sound familiar?

I highly recommend this book to anyone who wishes to have more information and a deeper understanding of how a terrorist network operates.

A Very Scary Book
This book talks about the goals of the radical Islamic people to take over the world in the name of Islam. It is heavily influenced by the court testimony of Jamal Ahmed al-Fadl, an al Qaeda operative who defected to the US in 1996 and supplied information regarding the start-up and organization of al Qaeda.

The basic theme is al Qaeda's search for and attempts to obtain weapons of mass destruction, particularly nuclear weapons. A secondary theme is the general viewpoint of disgruntled muslims who are greatly offended by the west, even as they have moved here from their homelands.

Although the book was published in 2007, much of the information is several years old, al-Fadl's court testimony was in 2001, before 9/11. Therefore I can't rate the book at the very top of the list. Yes, it appears that the radical fringe seems to have plans to take over the world, but so did Hitler. Plans don't equal accomplishments. According to the book, al-Qaeda has had nuclear weapons for several years but haven't used them. Why?

The book is a good collection of news articles on the subject. And it makes for very scary reading. I can only hope that it isn't true.

Matastasizing!
What are the terrorists doing, where are they training, how are they training, and where are they training. If this book doesn't absolutely shock you, nothing will. Williams has documented all the above in this book. Make no mistake, the terrorists want nothing less than the complete destruction of western civilization and are preparing to carry out their threat, all for their vision of people following the law of Islam and nothing, absolutely nothing less!

Williams has documented evidence of as much as 40 terrorists training camps based in the United States alone and has documented the training activities that take place there - to include gun fire and explosives. He also presents evidence (not proof) that bin laden has already purchased uranium and nuclear devices and that some of this may already be in position for later use.

I warn you that this is not light reading, this is serious stuff with evidence to back up a great deal of what is said. It will make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck. Every citizen should read this book and after reading, I can only hope they will contact the proper individuals and ask why this is allowed to continue. The authorities are aware of the training camps. Unbelievable! Definitely get this book and one other. Get "The Convention" written by Travis which is another book about terrorism, but from a different perspective. It will go together nicely with this book. Don't be deceived! Their great Muhammad has metastasized and is spreading at an alarming rate.
