From Publishers Weekly This eye-opening investigation into anti-American terrorist activities would have been even more shocking if information hadn’t already started to dribble out about the inadequacies of the FBI and CIA in tracking and preventing such activities. But every page of this information-packed report seems to announce ineffectual actions， missed opportunities and frustrated agents on the ground blocked by the FBI hierarchy， turf battles and political lack of will. Even by the mid-1990s， when al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden were well known to U.S. authorities， strong action wasn’t taken because， one State Department official says here， their acts hadn’t exceeded an ?acceptable level of terrorism.? The 1998 African embassy bombings， for instance， could likely have been prevented， according to the authors. The plot is tangled， but through it Miller， Stone and Mitchell follow two threads from 1990 up to September 11， 2001: first， ?the cell，? actually a series of terrorist cells， beginning with the one responsible for the 1993 World Trade Center bombing a cell that， in one of their most illuminating revelations， the authors trace directly back to El Sayyid Nosair， convicted of murdering Rabbi Meir Kahane in 1990. The second thread is the Joint Terrorist Task Force， an FBI/NYPD squad whose sharp and dedicated members are the heroes of this tale， doggedly investigating the cells and their connections when not blocked by higher-ups. Miller， now coanchor of ABC TV’s 20/20， scored an interview in 1998 with bin Laden， whose chilling words he repeats here (?You will leave [Saudi Arabia] when the youth send you in wooden boxes and coffins?). Miller， Stone (a noted criminal investigative journalist) and Mitchell (a senior editor at The Week) connect a lot of dots in this frightening and important book.
