Overview

TERROR WALKS AMONG US. Born here, raised here, plotting here, the terrorists of al Qaeda 2.0 aim to kill Americans. And our government helps. Who are the recruits for the next wave? They live next door. A radicalized army major guns down forty-five, killing twelve soldiers and one civilian; an airport shuttle-bus driver plots a subway slaughter; a legal immigrant tries to blow up Times Square while another fanatic hopes to kill hundreds at a Christmas tree-lighting ceremony . . . and a radical Muslim born in New Mexico has a legion of fanatics in his web. ""The Next Wave"" reveals the shocking story of how that blood-crazed American, Anwar al-Awlaki--now hiding in Yemen--was treated to Pentagon pomp as a ""moderate Muslim,"" and how our Justice Department hid his movements from the 9/11 Commission . . . even though al-Awlaki aided the 9/11 hijackers. The terrorists next door turn our tech against us, exploiting Facebook, Skype, and our outdated laws. Online terror recruiters are one of the Web's greatest success stories--yet our government refuses to stop them. Activists howl about ""inhuman"" conditions at Guantanamo--while pampered inmates laugh at our weaknesses. The next wave of deadly terror is here and now. Washington shuts its eyes. And the next massacre in the name of Islam will be ""Made in the U.S.A.""

"""An absolutely compelling case that we haven't seen the end of terrorism in this country.
