Melissa Radler "The Jerusalem Post" It is hard to think of anyone who has done more extensive research in the area. The things that worry Emerson should worry America at large.
Descriere
Eighteen months before the attacks of September 11, 2001, Steven Emerson issued a warning about the spread of domestic Islamic terrorist networks.
