Description

Robert Baer's memoir, See No Evil, is a gripping account of his time as a CIA field officer in the CIA's war on terrorism. With unflinching honesty, Baer recounts his experiences running agents in the Middle East and paints a chilling picture of how terrorism works on the inside. This book provides a unique examination of the roots of modern terrorism and the CIA's failure to acknowledge and neutralise the growing fundamentalist threat. Baer reveals shocking details about the strategic alliance between Osama bin Laden and Iran in 1996, as well as the CIA's disastrous decision to shut down its operations in Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia. An extraordinary testimony that has become even more vital and damning since the events of 9/11, See No Evil is a compelling read for anyone interested in the inner workings of intelligence agencies and the complex world of terrorism.
