Shows how terrorist acts are used by the government to increase wiretapping, search and seizure, and invasive surveillance of private citizens.
The sheer volume of detailed evidence in this book about the U.S. government's unholy alliance with the terrorist underworld - and of a sting operation that led to the Oklahoma City bombing - will shock some people. At the same time, many readers will be relieved to finally hear the awful truth about the politics behind such acts of terror.
