Ahmed seems to have a maturity beyond his 23 years of age, with a number of thought-provoking papers already to his name. He is the executive director of a pub- lic interest think-tank, the Institute for Policy Research & Development, based in Brighton, UK. In this issue of NEXUS, we reprint the Conclusions from his book. Ahmed makes a serious attempt to examine the facts and anomalies of events surrounding September 11, and he reveals some unpalatable truths; for example, the suspicious collapse of standard operating procedures for air emergencies on that day. Any study of this type must refer to decades of history of international, but particularly US, strategic and economic policies and interests in Afghanistan and the region, and Ahmed does a great job in summarising the events that led to the rise of the Taliban and Osama bin Laden's al-Qa'ida in the 1990s. He also highlights longtime Bush—bin Laden family ties and the US-Saudi alliance. He checks out the warning signs received by US intelligence agencies well in advance of the 9-11 attacks, and considers the official US response to them—along with the anti-terrorism, police-state legislation that disguises a massive attack on freedom, aided and abetted by the media. He leaves us in no doubt that certain inter- ests in US government, military, industrial, intelligence and media arenas had much to gain from the September 11 attacks. | THE WAR OW | FREEDOM NEXUS = 65 AUGUST - SEPTEMBER 2002 www.nexusmagazine.com
