Amazing read. We need 100 more Ali Soufan's working for our government!

Great and very detailed. Ali Soufans interrogations go beyond what we might think is typical for a interrogation of a terrorist. His details on understanding the mindset of terrorists is great.

Great book. A wealth of information on the years leading up to 9/11.

The Black Banners. Great read. Lots of truth and insight about not just 9/11 but years leading up to it.

Facinating. Very interesting book, the take against EID interrogation is telling and helps to show the breakdown of communication between agencies after 9/11. The redactions are frustrating, but still the overall message comes through, that intelligence and perseverance are the means to defeating a global terrorist threat.

Far to much redaction. While I realize that the author had to redact portions of this book in order to meet the publishing deadline, the redacted portions are quite extensive in some areas. It takes away from the overall story leaves you frustrated that information which (according to the author) ought to be considered non-classified is not permitted to be published. My advice, wait until the author is permitted to Publish the full account without interference. It is a very excellent work overall, and I understand the author's wish to publish by deadline, but I feel he should have pressed the issue and received some sort of legal judgment qualifying the redacted information as non-classified. As it sits in its current form, the work is incomplete because of the redactions.

Not sure. A lot of interesting information, and the author makes a good point. It is too bad the thoughts in this book are so scattered and the writing is very choppy. Almost as if the book was written in a big rush and sent to print without much evaluation.
