Abstract:
This book is both an indictment of an agency that lost its way, and an inside look at the roots of modern terrorism. A veteran case officer in the CIA's Directorate of Operations in the Middle East, Baer witnessed the rise of terrorism first hand and provides evidence of how Washington politics sabotaged the CIA's efforts to root out the world's deadliest terrorists, allowing for the rise of Al Qaeda and leading to the attacks of September 11, 2001. His story suggested the motion picture Syriana.--From publisher description.
