FIVE STAR RATING BY REVIEWER JIM BARLOW

Paul Zarembka is a professor of economics at the State University of New York at Buffalo. In his new book on the seminal events of September 11, 2001 and the ensuing "War On Terror." he has shown courage, skill and leadership in pulling together the careful research of many writers.

This affordable book with its updates provides an understanding of why we should question the "official conspiracy" theory of what happened on September 11, 2001 and the resulting endless "war on terror" that has turned America into a police state.

Especially pertinent is Diana Ralph's words on page 274 on the contrived Bush doctrine of Islamophobia. We need an enemy to replace the commies of the Cold War. When you understand that, you begin to understand the slant of the daily commercial news.

On page 145, we read, "The Observer's chief reporter, Jason Burke concludes that: `al-Qaeda' is a messy and rough designation, often applied carelessly in the absence of a more useful term."

This book should be on the reference shelf of every political scientist, journalist and anyone concerned about the disastrous path America is taking.

INSIDE THE BOOK:

· How much insider trading occurred in the days leading up to 9-11?
· How compromised is the evidence against the hijackers?
· Why were there no military interceptors?
· To what extent does the testimony of more than five hundred firefighters differ from the official reports of what happened at the World Trade Center buildings that day?
· How inseparably connected are Western covert operations to al-Qaeda?
· How is Islamophobia used to sustain American imperialism?
· What was the 9-11 Commission?

With contributions from Nafeez Mossaddeq Ahmed, Four Arrows, David Ray Griffin, Jay Kolar, David MacGregor, Diana Ralph, Kevin Ryan, and Bryan Sacks, this path breaking work examines 9-11 and its background, showing how much remains unknown and where further investigation and debate is needed.
