Reply #6: This book was scary [View All]

[Yupster]

It was about a US Muslim who became a jihadi warrior, then a CIA informant.

He fought in Chechyna and Kashmir. He was seriously wounded in Chechnya and had his leg unnecessarily amputated so he'd be able to get an artificial leg and go back to fight again.

Eventually he left the terrorists because he didn't like them killing civilians.

He had an idea to set up a weapons training camp in Arizona. He told the CIA that with his contacts and reputation, every single potential terrorist in the US would go through his camp. Then we could get their names and watch them.

It was an interesting proposal but Janet Reno turned him down which I probably would have too.

Anyway, then he left our side and wrote a book.

The point is that he converted to Islam and became radicalized in a California prison.
