Customer Rating:      Summary: Very thorough Comment: Like Ahmed's other books, the research and referencing of publicly available information is second to none. Each chapter and sub-section is very clearly structured by presenting the information and evidence, linking it to other information and ideas, and then analysing, interpreting and concluding from the evidence.
While it could be argued that some of Ahmed's conclusions are incorrect, inaccurate or plain false, this book definitely takes a new approach to 21st century terrorism. At the very least it makes the reader question not only the political propaganda surrounding the war on terror, but also the world media coverage and especially the work of the 9/11 commission.
I can't say I agreed with all of the conclusions, and a few of his ideas do come across as being little bit far fetched. However, it is definitely worth reading, regardless of your political and social beliefs.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent reading for the inquiring mind Comment: The book provides a mass of information and attempts to draw conclusions from the evidence. While some would disagree with the conclusions presented, the wealth of information presented,discussed and analysed that is normally hidden by mainstream media makes this book an absolute must for anyone who wants to get closer to the truth.
Customer Rating:      Summary: the war on truth Comment: This book like ahmed's other 2 books should be required reading for any one who supports what we are doing in the so called war on terror, it should be stuffed down the throats of our so called free press, and while we are at it the washington post, new york times and fox news could at least give it an honest review.Take care Mr Ahmed, as the title of your book suggests we are heading down the slippery road to a police state, of which new laws such as "the glorification of terror", and i.d. cards are just the beginning.
