Rating:  Summary: Questionable revisionist history Review: Not a worthwhile purchase and but always run across his books abandoned by my friends and I advise you to do the same. There should be a law in these times that require books to be labeled "not written by a professional historian".
Rating:  Summary: Trying to Educate yourself on the War on Terror? Review: I found this book to be very educational and eye opening. I've been doing some reading to understand what has been going on the past 20 years with OBL, and I've found Losing Bin Laden to be pretty much on target. The Chapter titled, "The Friend of Bill" alone is very credible. To the reviewers who say there is no credibility to the book haven't read it, or, are well... stupid.
I knew Mr. Ijaz seemed very knowledgeable about the war on terror. I would always try to catch him on Fox if there were something "big" going on on the war on Terrorism. Before reading Mr. Miniter's book I did not know Ijaz's background, or who he was at all.
I recall Mansoor livid one day after the Richard Clarke book had come out. He was on Fox and said he would debate Clarke Anytime and Anyplace as to the Facts!
Now, I feel pretty good about the fact that I could pick out the one person on Tv that knew what he was talking about as far the war on terrorism.
Also, I'm pretty sure I heard that Mansoor's name has been put out there for that vacant CIA position or some position like it.
How's that for a credible source?
The book reads like a spy novel, but unfortunately it seems true.
Rating:  Summary: Scary If True! Review: I was a bit skeptical at first, thinking this was just another Clinton bashing hatefest. I'm not a "Clinton Fan" by any means, but recognize partisan propaganda on both sides and am able to draw my own conclusions. After reading it, I purchased copies for all my friends and realtives that read. It certainly made me see the events of 9/11 and after in a different light. I think this is a must read for everyone that plans to exercise their right to vote for our next President.
Rating:  Summary: Fool me once/ can't fool me again Review: I really thought this book would rip Clinton apart with completely biased views, but instead it gives him a pretty fair shake. It seems like most of the failures are blamed on bureacratic barriers and red tape rather than Clinton himself, especially with the first WTC bombing. Not the kind of insanely conservative propaganda that some reviewers make it out to be. It's a pretty easy read that I enjoyed, and I hope you will too.
