Thousands of American soldiers and civil servants have lost their lives in the War on Terror. Innocent citizens of many nations, including Americans killed on 9/11, have also paid the ultimate price. While the US government claims to stand against terror, this same government refuses to acknowledge its role in creating what has become a deadly international quagmire. Visas for al-Qaeda: CIA Handouts That Rocked the World sets the record straight by laying the blame on high-ranking US government officials.

During the 1980s, the CIA recruited and trained Muslim operatives to fight the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Later, the CIA would move those operatives from Afghanistan to the Balkans, and then to Iraq, Libya, and Syria, traveling on illegal US visas. These US-backed and trained fighters would morph into an organization that is synonymous with jihadist terrorism: al-Qaeda.

J. Michael Springmann, a former US diplomat, names individuals and organizations that deny culpability. He analyzes the effects of a nebulous war on the US economy and infrastructure. After thirteen bloody years, Springmann exposes hypocrisy and deceit wrapped in a sullied flag of patriotism and honor.

An excellent expose of CIA recruiting of jihadists as part of their international mercenary army to further US global hegemony. It's a taboo subject for the US msm, of course, and for the same reasons Visas for Al Qaeda should be read by every American.

A Must Read Book

Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2015

Verified Purchase

"It was the best book I have read in many years." This comment was made by the former Inspector General of the Jordanian armed forces, and he is an avid reader. I offered him the book during my recent visit to Jordan after I read it and found that it is a great book every politician, diplomat, statesman and any person involved in intelligence in the United States and the Middle East should not miss reading it. The author has successfully shed light on how we advertently or inadvertently sow the seeds of radicalism which eventually grow into terrorism.

The Truth of How Our Government Operates Overseas

Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2015

Verified Purchase

I'm actually only still reading this exceptionally interesting book. I will need to read it again since it is quite involved and detailed -- yet, credible -- breathtakingly so. Once I get around to completing my thoughts on what Mr. Springmann has written, I'll most likely compose another review. But, for now my suggestion is that people definitely get a copy of this book and read it with an open mind. The beginning of the book is a bit choppy and a little disorganized, but once you really get into the major contents, the information about how our government operates around the world is quite stunning. I don't get the impression that Mr. Springmann has embellished the facts, but provided them in a very straightforward way. He is very brave, yet, truly patriotic, in revealing this information that most people would never have the opportunity to know.
