From the publisher:

 An exciting, eye-witness account of fighting terrorism in Afghanistan using the military's most cutting-edge espionage tactics Lieutenant Colonel Anthony Shaffer had been part of espionage operations for years before he went into the field to help fight the war in Afghanistan. He led the charge in blocking the Taliban's resurgence. But the policies that top officials relied on were hopelessly flawed. Shaffer and his team were forced to sit and watch as the insurgency grew just across the border in Pakistan. This wasn't the first time he saw bureaucracy stand in the way of national security. He had participated in Able Danger, the aborted intelligence operation that identified many of the future 9/11 terrorists but failed to pursue them. His attempt to reveal it to the 9/11 Commission would not sit well with the top brass and would eventually cost him his job. For readers of Jawbreaker and Kill Bin Laden, Operation Dark Heart reveals what really went on, and what went wrong, in the Afghanistan war. Filled with stories of espionage and intrigue in the combat zone, Shaffer shows the spy's side of the story About the Author Anthony Shaffer LT. COL. ANTHONY SHAFFER is a Bronze Star Medal recipient who is a CIA-trained senior intelligence operations officer and reserve Army lieutenant colonel with more than twenty-two years of experience in the intelligence community. Currently, he is a fellow and special lecturer at the Center for Advanced Defense Studies in Washington, D.C.

Here is an excerpt from Amazon.com: Page 17
At DIA, in 1999 and 2000, I was director of Task Force Stratus Ivy. One of my elements was the first undercover cyber unit, where we put officers undercover posing as hackers on the Internet. During my command of Task Force Stratus Ivy, we were looking to penetrate al Qaeda command and control nodes in Kabul. We knew they contained significant information on individuals being trained in the terrorism camps - and, more importantly, their potential targets. My unit's mission, within the context of a much larger operation known as Able Danger, was to try to find a way to access the computers and pull the data off without their knowledge. We were making progress - and had a pathway in - when things were shut down; a decision that was terribly flawed in retrospect. We also penetrated the North Korean clandestine weapons and technology acquisition network, using a cover company where I was (in alias) the chief executive. In another operation, we penetrated the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, the Iranian intelligence service. Nevertheless, we faced constant resistance from the risk-averse DIA bureaucracy.

                                                   Subhanallah ! ! !
    Allah (SWT) has said that He shall protect the religion of Islam and so once again we see the positive side and how He manages His affairs.  We are so ignorant of his ways.


    Subject: Thank you Pastor Terry Jones
    Thank you Pastor Terry Jones
    For your service to Islam!

    1. Thanks for making Quran a bestseller. More copies Qurans and were sold on Amazon, local and online Islamic stores, thus providing humanity an opportunity to read and ponder over God's guidance for humanity.

    2. Thanks for the business. More people bought Islamic literature, along with the Quran, generating extra revenue for the Islamic stores. 

    3. More individuals visited the mosques to attend Muslim open houses and Islam presentations, thus receiving the wonderful message of Islam.

    4. More individuals called on the GainPeace's outreach hotline 800-662-ISLAM and inquired about the faith of Islam, giving Muslims an opportunity to explain Islam to our fellow citizens. You generated more publicity for Islam, then all our past outreach campaigns combined. 

    5. More people Googled the words 'Islam' and 'Quran'.The more that you spoke about Islam and the Quran, more people came to Muslim websites to learn about the truth of Islam.

    6. Libraries were busy loaning out copies of the Quran. Yes, libraries across the USA, Canada and Europe were busy lend out copies of the Quran to its patrons. 

    7. Thanks for saving the Muslims advertisement dollars. The free publicity to the words 'Quran' and 'Islam', that you gave, Muslims could have spent millions of dollars but couldn't have generated the same publicity and attention of the media, and thanks to you, the word of God (the Quran) became a household word.

    8. Thanks for waking up the Muslims. Muslim all across the world are now more passionate about the wonderful and peaceful faith of Islam and are eager to share it with their neighbors, colleagues, friends and humanity.

    9. Thanks for encouraging more people to embrace Islam. We had more people calling, learning and embracing Islam in the past few weeks, then we ever had since the last 40 years. 

    10. Thanks for uniting the people of conscience, the Muslim, the Jews, the Christians, the Hindus, and the atheist, on the common platform of goodness, love and tolerance and against hatred, bias and bigotry.

    Pastor Terry Jones, we pray that you actually read the Quran with an open mind and heart and ponder over its message of the oneness of God. If you love Jesus, follow the religion of Jesus, the religion of Jesus was Islam, submission to the The Creator. May God, enlighten you to the truth of Islam and that you start worshiping the One Creator as was preached and practiced by Prophets Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad, peace be upon them. Welcome to Islam.

    Sugar tax withdrawn to check price hike: Effective 15 September
     
    Dhaka, Sep 1 (bdnews24.com)—The government has decided to withdraw import tax on non-refined sugar in a bid to keep its price at tolerable level. In addition, the import tax on refined sugar will also be reduced, a government statement said on Wednesday.

    The Tk 2,000 tax on each tonne non-refined sugar will be off from Sep 15, while the other tax on refined sugar, Tk 4,000, will be reduced to Tk 2,000.

    Sugar traders' association president Anwar Habib welcomed the government move. He said, "We requested the government to withdraw the taxes on sugar." He also assured that there was no chance of a price hike after the Eid due to the initiative. Currently, sugar is sold at Tk 43 at mill gate, Tk 45 in the wholesale and Tk 47 in the retail markets, Anwar added.
