Synopsis
This study of a new breed of terrorists provides background on their leaders as well as warnings on the threat they pose--and how to prepare against it. Author Reeve profiles Osama bin Laden, the wealthy-born radical fundamentalist who formed al Qaeda and who was the mastermind responsible for bombings of several embassies, the attack on the U.S.S. Cole, and the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center in New York and on the Pentagon.

Publisher's Note
Ramzi Yousef, The British-educated Islamic extremist who masterminded the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, was, according to FBI agents who tracked him, the most dangerous man in the world. While on the run from a massive two-year international manhunt, Yousef also bombed a Philippine Airlines flight and an Iranian temple, and plotted simultaneously to destroy eleven American airplanes over the Pacific, to attack CIA headquarters using a light aircraft armed with chemical weapons, and to assassinate President Clinton, the Pope, and other world leaders. This intriguing book traces Yousef's astonishing career and the FBI's desperate race to capture the evil genius who, after his conviction for the World Trade Center bombing, said: "Yes I am a terrorist and I'm proud of it. I support terrorism as long as it is used against the United States and Israel." Drawing on previously unpublished documents and on interviews with FBI agents, Western intelligence sources, and Yousef's supporters, victims, and collaborators, Simon Reeve paints a compelling and disconcerting portrait of this sinister villain. He also examines Yousef's close links with Osama bin Laden, the shadowy figure behind global Islamic terrorism, and assesses the current status of bin Laden's network, including his support within the Middle East and his growing relationship with Saddam Hussein. THE NEW JACKALS is a true-life investigative thriller that provides unsettling insight into what may well be tomorrow's headlines. Reeve concludes that Yousef and bin Laden are the first of a new breed of terrorists, men dedicated to mass killing and willing to die for their cause. He predicts that men like Yousef and bin Ladenwill soon obtain and use weapons of mass destruction, and warns that there is little the West can do to prevent such devastating attacks.
