Cumberland House: Nashville, 2005
A very poorly edited, rushed-to-print ( and with good reason) primer
on the Iranian theocracy's nuclear weapons program and campaign
of terror against the West. There is some, but not much detail in the
book that goes beyond what a well-informed layman with an interest
in this subject already knows.
The subject- naive reader will, on the other hand, find a wealth of
information which, taken as intended by Corsi, ought to make the
magnitude and urgency of this problem all too plain. Keep the
diazepam or the Stoli handy while reading. The trouble is, though,
that the increasingly hysterical tone of the prose ( is it really helpful
to refer to the Iranian regime as the "mad mullahs" with every single reference to it ?) occasional lapses in
sourcing and an irritating tendency to omit the logical bridges between profferred facts and the con-
clusions which putatuively follow from them will leave unpersuaded exactly the class of readers this book,
if it is to effect public opinion, should be designed to convince. It is preaching to the choir. Nonetheless,
a riveting good read.
