Overview

Terrorist groups have always been a principal object of study in the national security community, but the focus has been stronger than ever since the terrorist attack of September 11, 2001. Among the most important elements in this equation is funding -- the source of the millions of dollars it takes to maintain such a group and to carry out terrorist acts -- and there are strong indications of links between terrorists and the international narcotics trade. The author of this volume, former chief counsel to the U.S. House Subcommittee on National Security and former chief staffer to the U.S. House Speaker's Task Force on Counter-Narcotics, explores the connection. The text asks all the crucial questions: who terrorists are, what links they have to the narcotics trade, how America's drug problem fills their coffers, and how federal agencies are working to put an end to this relationship.

Explains the changes that have occurred in national security strategies since the attacks on September 11, 2001, concerning narcotics and terrorism.
