In The War on Truth - the long-awaited sequel to The War on Freedom - Nafeez Ahmed provides the most comprehensive and controversial critique of the government's official version of what happened on 9/11.

In this extensive new analysis, Ahmed doubles the data and investigates the worldwide web of terrorist networks across space and time. Deconstructing the findings of the 9/11 Commission Report and the Joint Congressional Inquiry, he exposes disturbing liaisons between American, British, and European intelligence services and al-Qaeda operatives in the Balkans, Caucasus, North Africa, Middle East, Central Asia and Asia-Pacific- liaisons linked not only to 9/11, but also to prior terrorist attacks including the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and the 1998 US embassy bombings.

Against this background, Ahmed accomplishes the most detailed and wide-ranging study to date of the powerful vested interests and intrigues responsible for the collapse of US national security in the years and months leading to 9/11. Government documents, whistleblower testimony, and the findings of official inquiries are scrutinized to trace the innermost workings of the intelligence community, revealing precisely which government policies and operations facilitated the 9/11 intelligence failure, and pinpointing the specific agencies, individuals and decisions that emasculated the US air defense system.

Finally, Ahmed unlocks the underlying geostrategy of the War on Terror- the culmination of a decades-long plan to secure and expand an increasingly unstable system. For anyone who remains uneasy about government policies on, and after, 9/11, The War on Truth is an invaluable resource that will radically alter perceptions of international terrorism, national security, and the clandestine machinery of Western power.

Western Civilization's Propaganda Power Machine Over The American Public

Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2017

Verified Purchase

It's a gripping tale of Western Civilization's propaganda power machine over the Media and the American public. The creation of disinformation programs by the White House and others in government agencies that have led America to WAR unjustly. It's the tale of the NEO-CON's and their vulchers that boot-lick them on a daily bases. It tell how America got into the War and Terrorism business. It describes treachery, cruelty and dirty tricks as to how the American Empire controls, dominates and exerts military power to entangle a nation for its territory and resources. If there's money to be made, there's likely a PIPELINE in the mix. It shows, how military deals are done and who really is initiating TERRORISM. The author does a great job of naming government officials and others players in the web of deceit. The book is well written and intriguing to read, a good purchase.

a travesty

here lies enough information to indict our elected leaders, from lower ranking f.b.i. officials who were "onto something" but who were directed elsewhere, from security apparatus from foreign nations who provided information that was ignored. if you or i were as negligent in our work as our leadership has been negligent as described herein we'd be out of a job...at best. if the truth were known, we'd be in jail. i think the detail that put me over the hump was the description of a 1000-vehicle convoy that left the "war-zone"...at night...with headlights on...escaping the might of a world superpower...an incident described by one ancient sheepherder as...silly...not the word the ancient man used...but he described it using a herding metaphor...he'd said that when they gather the flock they approach from four sides...not one. the so-called terrorists were allowed to operate, are allowed to operate, and it is safe to assume that this will continue to be the trend...if benghazi and other incidents are any indication.

too...the author could have looked more closely at the ramsey yousef case...a local state representative, stephen dresch, was somehow involved with yousef and a mafia-guy...both doing time at florence now...though at the time of flight 800...yousef seemed to have known of prior knowledge that a plane would be brought down that night it happened. flight 370?

if those knuckleheads keep it up...what recently almost transpired in nevada with the rancher...our revolution will not be long in arriving.

this is not a "conspiracy theory"...rather this is a scholarly work. the information is there. what you chose to do with that information remains to be seen.

Several reviewers on this site, who I must admit have read more books on the subject than I have, have made comments that Ahmed doesn't go far enough. I just completed the book after having read Synthetic Terror which I think was recommended by one of these same critics.

The impact and the conclusions of both books, in my opinion are basically the same:The military industrial complex ordered the attack, let the attack happen, benefitted from it, etc, etc. I mean how far does the man have to go? How could it be possible that Ahmed is some type of CIA agent when he says unequivocally that Bin Laden and his organization were and continue to be tools of the American government? He shows how the Project for a New American Century wanted a new Pearl Harbor and then he shows how the US government had maintainded its ties to, and control of Bin Laden through third party surrogates.Its a sphreical expose on how the US government works. Its all right there and its inescapable; either the US controls Bin Laden or Bin Laden controls the US. Ahmed beats you over the head with this conclusion over and over with damning evidence throughout. If just half of his sources are correct, the books justifies its existence. I find that any criticisms that he's been "bought out" to be hair splitting in the extreme.I mean who cares about WTC 7 after he's already said the government did it? His theoretical construct in favor of symbiosis makes all the sense in the world to me. Its straight out of Star Trek 5. The books kind of a grind, but its worth it.Take the pill.

Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2016

Verified Purchase

A comprehensive and thoroughly documented examination by a respected investigative writer of the US policies and events in the years that led up to the 9/11 attacks. It documents the complicity and cooperation that powerful people within the US government provided that allowed the attacks to occur unhindered. It will be informative but disturbing to those who do not want to know the facts or do not want to face the reality of the 9/11 events so many people will refuse to read it.
