On September 11, 2001, FBI Special Agent Ali H. Soufan was handed a secret file. Had he received it months earlier-when it was requested-the attacks on New York and Washington could have been prevented. During his time on the front lines, Soufan helped thwart plots around the world and elicited some of the most important confessions from terrorists in the war against al-Qaeda-without laying so much as a hand on them. Most of these stories have never been reported before, and never by anyone with such intimate firsthand knowledge.
This narrative account of America`s successes and failures against al-Qaeda is essential to an understanding of the terrorist group. We are taken into hideouts and interrogation rooms. We have a ringside seat at bin Laden`s personal celebration of the 9/11 bombings. Such riveting details show us not only how terrorists think and operate but also how they can be beaten and brought to justice.

The Black Banners
I'm about halfway through this book and so far it has been very informative. I have had a hard time putting it down once I get into it. Readers do need to be warned that a significant amount of text has been blacked out of the book. The author explains that the FBI and CIA went through the book before it was published. Any information that either agency felt should not be released was blacked out. It makes it confusing at times to figure out the story when critical information was hidden. Ali Soufan did make a comment that he was still fighting the government to have the remaining information released but if and when that happens remains to be seen.
