At great risk to themselves and the entire mission, the U.S. Special Operations Forces, who carried out the Abbottabad raid that killed Bin Laden, took an additional eighteen minutes to collect Bin Laden's hard drives and thereby expose al-Qaeda's secrets. In this ground-breaking book, Nelly Lahoud dives into Bin Laden's files and meticulously distills the nearly 6,000 pages of Arabic private communications. For the first time, al-Qaeda's closely guarded secrets are laid bare, shattering misconceptions and revealing how and what Bin Laden communicated with his associates, his plans for future attacks, and al-Qaeda's hostility toward countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Pakistan. Lahoud presents firsthand accounts of al-Qaeda from 9/11 until the elimination of Bin Laden, as told through his own words and those of his family and closest associates. 541 $d 20220628. 600 17 $a Bin Laden, Osama, $d 1957-2011. 610 2 $a Qaida (Organization.) 650 $a Terrorism $x Islam. $x Islam. 650 $a Islamic fundamentalism. 650 $a War on Terrorism, 2001-2009. 941 $a 2 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230203020024.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20220705011903.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CB139132FC2711ECABE445E131ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
