Collins has been described as a beefy-linebacker blue-eyed All-American mujahid holy warrior who has led a life of faith, danger, and espionage in some of the most perilous war zones on the face of the earth. His amazing journey began in 1993 when a fellow worshiper in his San Diego mosque suggested that he go to Bosnia to stop the genocide. This eventually led him to Usama Bi Laden's training camps in Afghanistan, where he trained with the most aggressive and terrifying mujahideen in the world. Eventually he became disillusioned with the worldwide terrorism and shocking violence and was recruited by the U.S. as an undercover operative. His callous treatment by inevpt members of the intelligence community provides insight into why the U.S can't fight against something it doesn't understand. The CiIAand FBA have now spent millions of dolars to understand the events that led up to September 11, even as the information was theirs for the taking. Collins not only became acquainted with one of the hijackers, he was also invited by Usama bin Laden to return to Afghanistan. This is a personal story about the biggest threat to world peace and stability in our generation, as told by an insider on both sides of the conflict.
