The author shares with us a remarkable first hand account of a young Muslim who ends up working for European Intelligence Services. His journey from the streets of Morocco, to Belgium, and ultimately to Afghan Mujhadeen training camps is captivating. He shows us the difference between how "westerners" like myself and young Muslims see the world. It is important to understand his story, the people he met, and how the call for jihad resonates with the youth throughout the Muslim world. I personally found the incompetence of the Intelligence services he dealt with remarkable. This is a great look at the "insiders account" of what motivates people to embark upon training and joining the Mujhadeen. In addition it shows how we really don't understand the threat we face, the resiliency of our enemy, and their robust training.
