Countdown to Terror

The Top-Secret Information that Could Prevent the Next Terrorist Attack on America - and How the CIA Has Ignored It

De: Curt Weldon

Narrado por: Alpha Trivette

If someone knew when and where the next major terrorist attack was to be to take place against America, wouldn't the US intelligence community want to know about it? In Countdown to Terror, US Congressman Curt Weldon, proves that "Ali," an informant with access to the minutes of the most secret Iranian councils does have details about many plots against the US. In fact, he has outright predicted - days, weeks, or months in advance - numerous terrorist plots that were actually carried out our thwarted at the last minute. Still, the CIA, the DIA, the NSA, and the FBI in the US have all repeatedly refused to listen to him, even going as far as to threaten him for his communications with Congressman Weldon. "Ali" now warns of an even greater threat than the 11th of September 2001 - a plot called "The 12th Imam" - which the US intelligence community must act upon, or face catastrophic consequences. Congressman Weldon exposes a deeply dysfunctional culture and perverse political agendas in American intelligence that are endangering American security. He also explains why the recent restructuring of the intelligence agencies will do nothing to fix the country's broken and failing intelligence services.

Great Book

Countdown to Terror is a compelling book that offers insight into the failures of the United States' intelligence community. The author provides detailed information he received and passed on to the United States intelligence, which they did not act upon. He also provided key information to the president of the United States, who did not act on it. These failures continue to multiply, and each hurts the United States. The author also provides corrective action that can be taken to improve the US intelligence community.

In the mind of Iran

If any USA president or Israel supported by USA attacks Iran all hell will be unleashed. Even though this book is old it gives a insight into what kind of attacks we should expect when this happens.

Boring Read

The story may have been good, but the narrator’s cadence was robotic which made it a tough listen without falling asleep. It was tough listening while driving.
