Publisher's Annotation


Osama bin Laden is perhaps the preeminent organizer and financier of international terrorism in the world today. Who is this man and what drives him -- and those he leads -- to hate a West that helped educate, enrich, and arm him? World-renowned terrorism expert Yossef Bodansky reveals the events in bin Laden`s life that turned this once-enterprising engineer into a leader of radical Islam`s terror network, whose targets are U.S. citizens and assets. In the process, Bodansky uncovers an incredible web of Middle Eastern operatives beholden to a cold-blooded regime in Iran and supported by many of America`s allies. In Bin Laden: The Man Who Declared War on America, you will come face to face with a brutal war waged by fanatics who willingly give their own lives -- and extinguish the lives of countless  innocents -- for the dream of an Islamic world. This book is a wake-up call for those who believe the fall of the Soviet Empire brought about a safer world.
