Stewart Mitchell’s Reviews > The Looming Tower: Al Qaeda and the Road to 9/11 > Status Update

The CIA/FBI stuff is interesting and was the initial reason that I started reading this, but I find myself much more fascinated by the sections on bin Laden’s personal history and ideology. Morbidly fascinated, to be clear - I appreciate that Lawrence Wright takes the time to explain and identify with a belief system that he clearly does not subscribe to.
