Abstract

This work draws on intelligence documents, front-line accounts, interviews with counter-terrorism officials and the victims of terrorist attacks, and terrorists themselves, to provide evidence that Canada is an important base activity for terrorist groups. 
Description
"Cold Terror will shock the conscience of the nation. In terrifying detail, it shows how the world's terrorists have made themselves at home in Canada-and how they have been made welcome by cowardly politicians. This book is not an expose;; it is an urgent call to action." ?David Frum, former White House speechwriter and author of The Right Man: The Surprise Presidency of George W. Bush "The book may cause the earth to shake in certain political circles?justifiably. An important contribution towards alerting Canadians to the threats and dangers in our very midst." ?Dr. Martin Rudner, Director of the Canadian Centre of Intelligence and Security Studies, Norman Paterson School of International Affairs "A devastating indictment of Canada's failure to deal seriously with terrorists on our soil." ?Martin Collacott, Canada's former ambassador to Syria and Lebanon, High Commissioner to Sri Lanka and Counter-Terrorism Coordinator "This is a terrific an d timely book.... The blend of the descriptive past tense and the present tense reportage, not always easy to pull off in a narrative, is seamless." ?George Jonas, author of 13 books, including Vengeance: The True Story of an Israeli Counter-Terrorist Team "This is THE book for anyone who wants to know why terrorists love Canada. Stewart Bell's carefully researched book takes readers inside the world of international terrorism. With a skillful blend of strong research edgy and on-the-scene reportage, Bell doesn't only tell you why Canada has become the Club Med of terrorism, he shows you how. Cold Terror is an indictment of Canadian government policies and should bring a chill to any Canadian." ?Lee Lamothe, author of The Last Thief and Bloodlines: The Rise and Fall of the Mafia?s Royal Family.
