A pointer to a source:Taken from a book review, of three books in The Economist; Soufan's being 'Anatomy of Terror: From the Death of Bin Laden to the Rise of the Islamic State'.Mr Soufan is at his most interesting in describing in detail the ambiguous role of Iran in the arrest, and then the release, of senior al-Qaeda figures fleeing Afghanistan—including Hamza bin Laden, Osama’s son—to be used “either as leverage or as attack dogs”.
