Thoughts on "My Life Inside the Jihad"

[Zack]

Thanks for all the input, it is much appreciated. I am going to write my review (for the directed reading) tonight. I'll post it if anybody is interested.

Stephen Grey, the author 'The New Spymasters' reviewed elsewhere, conducted a recent interview with Nasiri and remarks:

.. that much of what he said was credible..but, parts of his account..did not ring true and seemed like the words of a ghostwriter chosen for an American audience.

Nasiri said the book had been a negotiation with publishers in which he had to 'close my eyes' to some of what was written. He struggled to get the book to reflect his own radical perspective.

There is more in the chapter, pgs. 109-132.
