Diana West was kind enough to ask me to do an interview on The Jihadist Plot. Even better, Diana asked several questions that go beyond the book itself to related current issues such as the war in Syria and the Boston bombings. Here is a small excerpt: DW: You make a strong case that on [...]
My new e-book, The Jihadist Plot: the Untold Story of Al-Qaeda and the Libyan Rebellion, is now also available to Amazon customers based in Europe and, I gather, elsewhere in the world as well. The Amazon.com page is here. The book can also be purchased on some other local Amazon sites in Europe and elsewhere. Also now available [...]
My new e-book The Jihadist Plot: The Untold Story of Al-Qaeda and the Libyan Rebellion is now available on Amazon.com here. Beware that as far as I know, it is not currently available when accessing from Europe or perhaps elsewhere outside of the United States.

Diana West has been one of the very few American commentators to resist the siren calls of the “Libya hawks,” as she dubbed them early on. She has remained wary of the intervention in Libya throughout and lucid about the nature of the anti-Gaddafi opposition, and she has been kind enough to cite some of [...]

Visual evidence assembled by the website Human Rights Investigations clearly shows that he did. See my new report on [...]
